After they pondered for a long time and finally figured out the consequences of her actions, the people with related interests suddenly jumped out.

"How can this be possible? The rules were set by our ancestors. Don't think that just because you are the goddess of this term, you can change the rules at will. Have you obtained the consent of the elders? You made the decision on your own without informing anyone. This is a disrespectful attitude. There is something wrong with your attitude. It is very wrong!"

The person who was speaking was the uncle of the eldest son of the Di clan, who was in charge of one of the many family projects. Once the system was reformed, it would mean that he might lose his current job, which would definitely do him no good. If he didn't object, who would?

There are voices of opposition, and naturally there are voices of support. Look, there are people who stand up to support Ling Yuan without her even having to say anything.

"Why is this not okay? If it weren't for the selfless dedication of the Goddess, do you think you would still be standing here? Don't forget, if the Goddess hadn't stepped forward to save the Mo people, you wouldn't know what would happen to you now. Why, you acknowledged her as the Goddess when you needed her, but turned your back on her when you didn't?"

"That's right, they even brought up the Council of Elders. Tsk, that's hilarious. They didn't even think about who was responsible for the Mo Clan's severe disaster this time? The Council of Elders, damn it! Fortunately, they were all wiped out. If they were left to corrupt the Mo Clan, the Mo Clan would have ceased to exist without the Goddess's salvation."

"Aren't they announcing the vote in public? How can they disrespect you? If they didn't respect you, why would they drag you here to let you vote? Do you still have a brain? I see, you are not considering the interests of the family, but your own interests. If it wasn't related to your own interests, would you jump so high?"

…

Once there was one, there was a second one, and soon, the two groups who agreed and disagreed started a fierce argument.

Of course, there were third parties who stayed out of the matter. They neither argued nor spoke, but just watched quietly.

Finally, only Ling Yuan and his family were left, sitting there as calmly as a rock, waiting for the outcome of the quarrel.

I don’t know how long it took, but maybe those people were tired of arguing. As soon as the scene became quiet again, Ling Yuan stood up and made an announcement.

"Let's start voting. This is a registered vote. When you vote, put your names on the chess pieces. If there are votes without names, they will be counted as invalid votes. Don't worry, I won't retaliate. After all, if you disagree, you naturally have your reasons. This cannot be forced. I will hold a separate meeting to discuss it in a targeted manner and give you an explanation. So, please abide by the rules and start!"

"Hey, what's going on? Why does it seem like the Goddess doesn't care at all? Wasn't it her who came up with this idea? No matter what, she should have said a few more words, right?"

"What else is there to say? What I just said wasn't clear enough. If you listen carefully, you can make a choice. If you don't listen carefully, it will be useless even if I talk till my lips are hoarse!"

"Then how do you choose? Do you agree or disagree? This is so difficult to choose. If you agree, it means that the family will have to carry out a major purge. I don't know if it will affect us. But if you disagree, the rules of the Mo Clan should be changed now. Look at what a mess our family is in now. It's heartbreaking to see."

"What's so difficult about this choice? Don't look at yourself, look at the long-term interests of the family, and then you can make a choice."

After saying that, he ignored her and walked straight towards the podium.

The girl behind her kept saying "ah hey hey" for a long time, but the girl in front of her ignored her and just cast her vote on the red chess piece that indicated her approval.

The same situation occurred from time to time under the rostrum. Ling Yuan seemed to care nothing, but in fact, she noticed everyone's attitude. It would be best if she met someone she knew. If she didn't know him, she would go back and ask Mo Yuan. Unconsciously, she had already memorized the people she liked.

About an incense stick of time later, the statistical results came out. To Ling Yuan's surprise, the number of people who disagreed was more than twice the number of those who agreed.

This means that everyone is determined to resist the reform!

Ling Yuan felt a little uncomfortable. Looking at the compiled list, she pursed her lips, glanced disdainfully at the audience below the podium, and said in a low voice.

"Those who voted for red pieces can leave now, and those who voted for white pieces can stay."

As a result, less than four in ten people left.

Seeing this result, some people were happy, and some even arrogantly despised Ling Yuan in public.

"How is it, Goddess? Are you very disappointed? Did you see it? This is what the people want. Have you ever thought about the consequences of such a rash change? It doesn't matter if there is no elders' council, but don't you care about your uncles and aunts?"

"You want to change the system, to put it bluntly, for your own sake. If you don't want to be a goddess, just say so earlier. Why make such a big fuss?"

…

Amidst the voices of condemnation, Ling Yuan's expression remained calm. She waited for the troublemakers to stop talking before she stood up and walked down the podium step by step with elegant and dazzling steps.

During this period, Mo Yin and the others didn't say a word. This was Ling Yuan's prior arrangement. If it could be solved, she would solve it herself, and if it couldn't be solved, she would not try to be stubborn. Now that she had not been forced into a desperate situation, she naturally would not send them a message for help.

She said nothing at first and walked around in the crowd. Those troublemakers were originally arrogant and gloating, but when they met Ling Yuan's sharp eyes, they turned their eyes away for the first time, and even the contemptuous and mocking smiles on their faces froze.

When they were laughing at themselves for being threatened by a little girl, Ling Yuan, who had been walking slowly with her hands behind her back, finally spoke.

"I don't know what you are all so happy about, and I don't know what you have to be happy about. What? Do you think you can stop my decision by voting against it? I'm really sorry for not going out to find out who I, Ling Yuan, am?"

"Even though I've become Mo Qingge now, I can't change the ruthlessness in my bones! Do you know how people outside call me? Do you know how I pulled the Sifang Continent back from the brink of death with my own abilities?"

"Do you think the disaster of the Four Continents will not befall our Dragon Empire? To tell you the truth, although Cang Yu has been imprisoned, his secret places have not been exposed yet. Do I need to repeat to you what happened on Stone Island?"

"In other words, as long as his secret base exists, the Empire Continent will never be peaceful. At that time, who do you think will be the ruler of this continent?"

"Tsk, you all think that just because you are older than me and my elders, you can ignore me? I am really sorry. Even if you disagree, it doesn't matter, because no matter whether this thing succeeds or not, I am still the helmsman of the Mo Clan. Why don't you consider the consequences of going against me?"

…

Ling Yuan's voice was neither hurried nor slow, and as clear and pleasant as the sound of pearls falling on a plate. However, in the ears of these people, her voice made them dumbfounded and stiff like zombies.

"You, are you threatening us? Despicable!" Suddenly, a very discordant voice sounded from the crowd.

"Threat? Are you worthy of that?" Ling Yuan turned around abruptly and suddenly slapped the man loudly through the air.

With a "pop" sound, the middle-aged man was knocked to the ground by Ling Yuan's fierce force.

Just as he covered his face and tried to glare at Ling Yuan, he found that Ling Yuan had come to his side without him knowing when, stepped on his head, and pressed him to the cold ground.

"If a tiger doesn't show its might, do you really think I'm Hello Kitty? Well, after being frustrated for so many years, should I really find someone to vent my frustrations to?"

With a "slap" sound, another slap was thrown down, and the man's face instantly maintained balance. Ling Yuan nodded with satisfaction, "Well, it looks better now. You don't agree, right? You said I threatened you, right? Well, now I will let you taste what a real threat is!"

"Pah!" The third slap was thrown over. "This slap is for my mother. Why does she work so hard, but you criticize her so much, don't understand her, and feel so at ease? Can you still be called a man? We women work so hard, but you feel at ease enjoying such wealth and glory. Aren't you ashamed? Are you embarrassed? Now, you dare to yell at me here, you coward, you make me sick!"

"Pa!" The fourth slap was thrown over. "This slap is for my father. My father is the Dragon King of the Dragon Clan. He has a good life and is sacrificing his dragon power for you scums. Not only do you not cherish it, but you also spread rumors behind his back saying that he is useless. Do you have any shame? Do you have any shame? If you have the ability, why don't you challenge Cang Yu? Do you dare? You can kill a small member of the Demon Clan without leaving a single piece of armor. With such ability, you still dare to point fingers at us behind our backs?"
