From the time Prince Kaguya arrived to the time he took his seat, it was Yun Waitian who greeted and led him. Yun Qinghong had nothing to do with it at all. During this period, Prince Kaguya did not even glance towards Yun Qinghong's position, as if he had completely ignored the existence of the real head of the Yun family.
The time has come. Yun Wai Tian jumped onto the Holy Cloud Platform, facing the direction of the ancestral monument, and raised his head and said, "Today, the grand competition of the entire Yun family will begin. And I believe everyone knows the reason for holding this clan competition. In another month, it will be the Little Demon Queen's 100th anniversary ceremony. This is a major event for the entire Illusory Demon Realm. As one of the twelve guardian families that have guarded the Illusory Demon royal family for generations, our Yun family will also attend this ceremony. By then, it will be a royal feast with guests from all directions. Although our Yun family is not the protagonist, according to the convention of previous years' ceremonies, our Yun family will show the glory of our Yun family to the Little Demon Queen and the heroes of the world at that time."
"So, in order to maintain the prestige of our family, only the best among the same age will be qualified to attend the ceremony. Because at that time, those who attend the ceremony will be the representatives of the strength of our Yun family in the corresponding age group... Especially the younger generation, the weak ones are not qualified to embarrass themselves at the ceremony, which will only bring shame to our Yun family!"
No matter where you are, the strength of the younger generation is always what all forces value most. Because the strength of one force at this stage is a foregone conclusion, and it is the younger generation that determines the future variables!
"This competition among all clans is the most direct and fair way to determine the best of each age group. It will be clear at a glance who will win and who will lose, who is strong and who is weak..."
"Okay, no need to say any more unnecessary words, let's get straight to the point." Grand Elder Yunhe suddenly spoke, stopping Yun Waitian from speaking.
The arrival of Prince Huiye made Yun Wai Tian speak cautiously. When Grand Elder Yun He suddenly spoke, he heaved a sigh of relief. He nodded in the direction of the three Grand Elders, then interrupted what he was saying and said, "In that case, I won't say any more. But..." He changed the subject and said seriously, "Before the clan competition, there is a major event related to the future of our clan that needs to be decided on the spot. Our elders' council has already started discussing this matter several months ago."
"Oh? A major event related to the future of your clan? I wonder what it is?" Helian Peng narrowed his eyes and said with interest.
As soon as Yun Wai Tian said these words, many people present held their breath, and looked towards Yun Qing Hong’s direction, either openly or secretly. Almost everyone present knew what the “big event” Yun Wai Tian was talking about was, and this day had finally arrived.
Yun Waitian swept his eyes across the entire room, then fixed his gaze on Yun Qinghong's position. He said solemnly, "My Yun family has been prosperous for thousands of years, and we are very powerful. But a hundred years ago, the disaster caused our eleven strongest cornerstones to collapse overnight, and our overall strength plummeted in an instant. During these hundred years, we have been burdened with guilt, and the development of the younger generation has been greatly restricted. Twenty-two years ago, the head of the family lost all his profound strength, which has made our Yun family bear even more guilt."
"Now, everyone knows that our Yun family has been declining rapidly. The head of the family is completely disabled and has little strength left. If this continues, our Yun family may not be qualified to continue to be among the twelve guardian families. Therefore, choosing a suitable new head of the family to lead the Yun family and revitalize our Yun clan has become the top priority of our entire clan..."
"etc!!"
Before Yun Wai Tian could finish his words, he was interrupted by a low shout. Mu Yubai stood up and said with a sullen face, "Elect a new patriarch? Yun Wai Tian, what do you mean? Do you want to force Yun Qinghong to abdicate?"
No one was surprised that Mu Yubai would come forward. Yun Waitian remained calm and said, "Master Mu is too serious. How dare we use the word 'force' to the Master? However, the Master is physically disabled and lacks energy, physical strength, and mental strength. I believe Master Mu will not deny this. And now is the time when the Yun family is facing life and death. How can we put the burden of reviving the Yun family on the Master who has no spare energy? Therefore, for the sake of the whole family and the safety of the Master, it is time for our Yun family to change the Master."
After all, Mu Yubai was the future head of the Mu family. The Yun family was currently in decline, and no guardian family was willing to offend them, so in the face of Mu Yubai's rudeness, Yun Waitian's words were still calm and cautious.
Mu Yubai sneered, "Over the past ten thousand years, your Yun family has had sixty or seventy family heads, but every family head is from the lineage of your Yun family..." Mu Yubai pointed at the Yun family's ancestral tablet and said, "The souls sleeping under the Yun family's ancestral tablet are all the heroic spirits of the family head! Yun Waitian, tell me, in the entire Yun family, besides Yun Qinghong, who else is a descendant of the family head! Don't tell me that you are going to force Yun Qinghong to retreat, and then find someone outside the family head to be the new family head... Hey! If I remember correctly, ten thousand years ago, you "Your Yun family is just a small barbarian family in the northern frontier. The one who created the Purple Cloud Art and led your family out of the northern frontier, and became the most powerful family in the world, and ranked first among the twelve guardian families, was the ancestor of the family head lineage! All the family heads since then are direct descendants of this lineage, without exception! Without the leadership of this lineage, your family would probably be living in a desperate situation now! ! Although Yun Qinghong is disabled now, he is not dead yet and is still very young! But you want to force him to step down as the family head... Aren't you afraid that you will not be able to face your ancestors after you die in the future! ? "
Mu Yubai's words were merciless, and he basically scolded all the people in the Yun family except Yun Qinghong. Although Yun Waitian tried his best to endure it, his face was still slightly red. At this time, Helian Peng said loudly: "Mu Yubai, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but what you said is so ridiculous that it's unbearable to listen to. The Yun family belongs to all the people in the Yun family. Who has stipulated that Yun Qinghong's lineage must be the head of the family? Even if the Yun family really has such a tradition, hey... Yun Qinghong is already useless. Let him continue to be the head of the family and let the world laugh at him. Sooner or later, the Yun family will be completely useless. Besides, it seems that the Yun family now has no other head of the family except Yun Qinghong... Oh, as for Yun Qinghong's son, hehe... Is it true that after Yun Qinghong dies, the Yun family will never have a head of the family? Or, do you want to see the Yun family let a wild man from the Tianxuan Continent..."
"Shut up!" Mu Yubai shouted, not letting Helian Peng finish the rest of the sentence. He said with a sullen face, "This is the Yun family's business! The head of the Yun family is my Mu family's son-in-law. I have control over this matter, but it's not your turn, Helian Peng, to interrupt! If you dare to say another word that I don't like to hear, believe it or not, I will make you kneel down and get out of here!"
Mu Yubai was upright and strong-willed. He was never willing to suppress his emotions and always kept his word. Even though the opponent was from the strongest Helian clan, he was still tough and left no room for maneuver. In terms of strength, Helian Peng was definitely not Mu Yubai's opponent, but he did not show any fear. Instead, he sneered: "Mu Yubai, don't think I'm afraid of you. If we really fight, who will leave on their knees?"
"court death!"
Helian Peng's words undoubtedly ignited Mu Yubai's anger. Mu Yubai was also worried that he could not find an opportunity to cause chaos at the scene. He shouted angrily, and a mysterious light burst out from his body. A thick ice chain flew into the sky...
"Shut up, this is the Yun family meeting, not the place for you two outsiders to quarrel, and you are not allowed to fight."
The voice was as calm as water, but it carried an irresistible pressure. As Prince Kaguya spoke, the eyes of the Rock Dragon Venerable beside him moved, and a yellow light shot out from his eyes, colliding with the ice chains from Mu Yubai. With a slight sound, the ice chains dissipated in mid-air.
After Prince Huiye spoke, Mu Yubai could no longer take action. He stared at Helian Peng coldly, returned to Yun Qinghong's side, and fixed his gaze on Yun Waitian.
"Brother, you are too impulsive." Mu Yurou said with some concern and anger.
“Haha, although Yu Bai is easily impulsive, he is not the kind of person who would do anything reckless.” Yun Qinghong smiled mysteriously.
"It turns out that my brother-in-law understands me, hey." Mu Yubai chuckled.
“Uh, could it be that my uncle suddenly got angry just now, was it intentional?” Yun Xiao whispered in Yun Che’s ear while listening to their words.
“Yes.” Yun Che nodded: “The more impulsive and irritable Senior Mu is, the more normal they will think it is… It seems that Senior Mu is also testing something.”
"Test something? Test what?" Yun Xiao was completely confused.
Yun Che glanced at the smiling Prince Hui Ye and said softly, “It won’t be long before we get an answer. Yun Xiao, don’t be surprised no matter what happens later.”
"Ah? Oh..." Yun Xiao was even more confused.
“Master Yun,” Prince Huiye spoke again, but he was facing Yun Qinghong directly. In terms of seniority, Prince Huiye was Yun Qinghong’s junior, so it was okay for him to address him as “Master Yun”, but his tone clearly showed no respect at all. After all, Yun Qinghong was already a complete cripple: “In my humble opinion, given your physical condition, you are indeed no longer suitable to continue leading the huge Yun family. I agree with what Elder Yun Waitian said. Choosing a new master to lead the Yun family is a good thing for the Yun family and Master Yun. What do you think, Master Yun?”
“Alas.” Grand Elder Yun He sighed calmly: “For thousands of years, the Yun family has been led by the head of the family. But now that the Yun family has reached this situation, changing the owner is also a helpless move.”
Grand Elder Yunxi said: "Qinghong, you really should take a good rest."
Grand Elder Yun Jiang said: "It's not that we are willing, but your body and ability are no longer able to shoulder the burden of the family."
When the Grand Elder spoke, even Prince Huiye supported the Yun family to change the head of the family. The change of the head of the Yun family seemed to be a foregone conclusion. Everyone was observing Yun Qinghong's reaction, but found that his face was calm. He was not disappointed, and he did not even sigh. He said slowly: "The Grand Elder and His Highness Huiye said so, so I, Yun Qinghong, naturally have no objection. Since the elders have been discussing the matter of changing the head of the family a few months ago, I believe that the candidate for the new head of the family has already been determined. Please let me know. If it is a reliable person who can convince everyone, I, Yun Qinghong, will naturally abdicate with pleasure."
"Humph! Do you even need to ask that?" Mu Yubai sneered, "Of course, the reason why he went to so much trouble to organize this so-called clan competition is to force the great elder of Yunwaitian to abdicate!"
"The matter of changing the head of the family was not proposed by me alone, but was decided by the entire elders' council." Yun Waitian said calmly, "I, Yun Waitian, have no virtue or ability, and I have never dared to covet the position of head of the family!"
