"But..." Ye Congshan wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Ye Fengyun.
"No buts, I have made up my mind. If you don't want to, you can also gather the elders of each family and abolish my position as the head of the family! However, if you cannot abolish my position as the head of the family, several elders may be suspected of gathering a crowd to mutiny and committing treason. Don't blame me for showing no mercy then." Ye Fengyun said proudly, and the threat in his words was obvious.
As expected of Wenren Qingqiu's eldest disciple, when they were at Longyan College, Ye Fengyun managed the Huanlong branch on behalf of Wenren Qingqiu most of the time. When he showed his power, he had the majesty of someone who had been in a superior position for a long time. When these words came out, Ye Congshan and others were so choked that they could not say a word.
It was possible to use Dou Nanshan's name to dethrone Ye Congyun from his position as Grand Elder, but it was not so easy to dethrone the head of the family. He would have to make a serious mistake. However, as the head of the family, he adhered to the ancestral teachings, so how could he make any mistakes? No matter how dissatisfied the clan members were, they had no choice but to accept it, even if they were clearly told to die.
If the matter really gets out of hand, it would be easy for Ye Fengyun to punish them for the crime of mutiny and treason.
"Okay, since you all have no objection, let's go." Seeing that Ye Congshan and others were speechless, Ye Fengyun waved his hand.
"Who said we don't have objections? We do have serious ones, but the question is, will it be of any use? It would be strange if we don't get killed by you." Although they were extremely unwilling, Ye Congshan and the others knew that it would be useless to say anything, so they didn't bother to speak anymore. They rolled their eyes and left the meeting hall with a belly full of resentment.
Seeing that Ye Fengyun had silenced Ye Congshan and the others with just one threat, Mu Hanyan was somewhat impressed. In this kind of situation, the best option was to cut the Gordian knot quickly. If we really had to argue, each person would have their own reasons. Indecision was the worst thing to do.
"Great Elder, you have worked hard on the journey. You should go and rest first. I still have some things to ask Chief Priest Mu." Ye Fengyun said to Ye Congyun again.
"Yes, Master of the Family." Ye Congshan bowed and turned away.
He had already found out on the way why Mu Hanyan had a grudge against Du Tiancheng, but the head of the family still didn't know. Since he had made up his mind to abide by the ancestral teachings and do his best to protect Mu Hanyan, he had to find out the whole story, so he didn't have any doubts at all.
Afterwards, Ye Fengyun dismissed several servants. There was no one else in the hall except him and Mu Hanyan.
"I didn't expect that we would meet again." Ye Fengyun then showed his joy of reunion after a long separation and said to Mu Hanyan excitedly.
"I didn't expect that you would come to Xiaoshentian and become the head of the Ye family. How did you do it?" Mu Hanyan said with emotion.
"Let's not talk about this for now. What level of cultivation have you reached?" Ye Fengyun did not answer Mu Hanyan's question, but asked anxiously.
"He's only at the peak of the tenth-order Divine Heart Priest, and he's only a little short of being promoted to the Divine Soul Priest. What's wrong?" Mu Hanyan gave Ye Fengyun a strange look. When old friends reunite, shouldn't they reminisce about the past first? Why is he asking about his cultivation level right away? Isn't that a bit mercenary?
"Just a little bit?" Ye Fengyun asked in surprise.
"Well, I originally had the opportunity to advance in the Temple of Life, but I failed because the power of heaven and earth was not enough. Now that I have reached the Lesser God Heaven, it should not be difficult to advance." Mu Hanyan nodded and said.
"Good, that's great, now Huayue and the others are saved!" Ye Fengyun said happily.
"Hua Yue! What happened to them?" Mu Hanyan was shocked when she heard this. Only then did she understand. No wonder Ye Fengyun didn't even bother reminiscing about the past when they met, and directly asked about her cultivation level. It turned out that it was related to the safety of Hua Yue and others.
