But, is their resistance useful?
It's obviously useless. At least there was an Elder Council before, but now it has been destroyed by them. The previous goddess and the dragon clan leader are suppressing them here. Even if they want to cause trouble, they must have the capital, right?
Suddenly, I regretted my impulsiveness. It is said that you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. If I lose my current identity, how can I plan for the future? How can I plan for the future of my children?
Forget it, forget it. Things have come to this point. What else can they do but bow their heads?
However, to the surprise of these people, just when they wanted to step forward to continue voting, the ballot box had already been collected, and the Ling Yuan sisters didn't even look at them, they walked down the podium and walked out, completely ignoring them.
What made them even more confused was that as the two sisters left, Mo Zihuang and Long Yi followed closely behind them. The two brothers Mo Yin and Mo Yuan who were left behind immediately called for people to come over and surround them.
Several families headed by the eldest house, the second house, the third aunt and the fourth aunt, all changed color in an instant.
"What do you want to do?"
Mo Yin glanced expressionlessly at their faces, which were trying hard to hide their fear, and sneered.
"What for? Of course I'm sending you back to your own yards, packing up your daily necessities, and leaving!"
"Listen carefully, these are daily necessities. As for other things belonging to the Mo family, you can't take a penny away. My sister has checked you from head to toe. Everything that should be sealed has been sealed. If you want to take them away, I'm afraid it won't be that easy. So, do you regret it now? It's a pity that there is no chance to turn the tables. Now even if you kneel in front of my sister, she may not even look at you, so your families are destined to be removed from the Mo family tree!"
Mo Yuan had never felt so relieved as today. He had known for a long time that Ling Yuan had strong explosive power, but he didn't expect that after waking up, she would go all out and press forward step by step. She took care of these old guys in just a few moves. It was really amazing!
Of course, he also knew that she had borrowed a lot of power from her cheap father, otherwise, she probably wouldn't have cut the Gordian knot so quickly, and these people wouldn't have turned against her so quickly. As for the people in front of him, they were the big bosses who were kicked out. This girl was very cunning, and she knew when to stop, without giving them any room to regret.
As long as they successfully drive out the people from these families today, the future of the Mo clan will be guaranteed.
"Mo Yin, Mo Yuan, I'll see who dares to touch me!"
The two brothers exchanged a quick glance, raised their hands and snapped their fingers, and the men in black surrounding them immediately started fighting with them.
"Since the uncles are unwilling to do it themselves, then our people will do it for them. Come, pack up their things for them and throw them all out of the Mo Clan. Don't leave any of them alive!"
The housekeeper hurried over, looked at the people in those rooms with some embarrassment, and asked the two brothers in a low voice.
"My two young masters, there are still some people from these families left in the Mo family. What do you think is a better approach, to root them out completely, or to divide the boundaries according to the current number of people?"
Mo Yin glanced over and knew what was going on. "Don't make it difficult for them. Since they switched sides before, it proves that they are not on good terms with these families. Now that they have a chance to change their fate, how could they give up? Stay and observe for now. After all, this is the first round of elimination, and there will be more screening later."
He could see that the girl was determined to pass this burden to the two brothers. The damn girl didn't even ask them a single question. She was so heartless.
Never mind. After all, he and Mo Yuan are brothers and men, so it is natural for them to bear such a family burden.
Their sister wanted to leave and get away, and even though they were unwilling to accept such pressure, given the current situation of the Mo clan, no one would be more suitable than them, the brothers. It would not be too late to withdraw once they found an heir in the future.
After thinking this through, the two brothers felt relieved and acted without any scruples. Even if these uncles, aunts, aunts, and uncles made a lot of noise, in the end, didn't they still chase them out with their luggage?
Before leaving, in addition to daily necessities, each person was given a severance pay of one thousand taels, and along with it was an official letter of expulsion from the clan. They stood outside protesting and refused to leave, but Ling Yuan ignored them and directly ordered people to send the official letter of expulsion from the clan to the royal family and other major families.
With these official letters, no matter how hard you jump now, you will be like a grasshopper in autumn.
After returning to her own yard, Ling Yuan did not rest and spoke to Long Yi without any politeness.
"Do you want me to recognize you?"
A frown immediately flashed across Long Yi's handsome face, but in front of his own daughter, he, as a father, felt really guilty.
"Of course I do. I dream about it. If you have any request, just tell me. As long as Daddy can do it, I will support you to the end."
Ling Yuan pointed out bluntly: "It's very simple. I want you to help me organize the Mo Clan. Well, to the point where there is not a single fly left!"
"And then?" Judging from his daughter's performance today, he didn't believe that she would bother him with such a small request.
Ling Yuan curled her lips, "It's a pleasure to deal with smart people. Also, it's to let my sister and I get rid of this identity. We don't belong here, and we don't want to stay here, not even for a moment. But for the sacrifice of mother, no matter how unwilling we are, we have to endure these days. So, you have to help us get out of this. Only in this way can you and mother leave here together and return to your dragon clan, mother, ok?"
Mo Zihuang's face flushed, and she glared at Ling Yuan, "What are you talking about, girl?"
"I'm thinking about you guys. Look, I've made up my mind. The Mo Clan will be left to my brother Mo Yin in the future. As for brother Mo Yuan, I think father must have made plans a long time ago, right?"
Long Yi looked at his daughter in surprise, "Did you really just wake up?" Do you have to be so smart?
"Although I was unconscious for half a year, I was not idle after I woke up. I know what you are planning better than anyone else, and I also think that your idea is very good. You might take this opportunity to completely divide the future of the four of us brothers and sisters. I have no objection to this. As long as we are not allowed to be gods and goddesses, we can do anything. How about two of us being surnamed Mo and two being surnamed Long?"
Now, Long Yi was completely excited, "Are you willing to take my last name, Long?"
Ling Yuan glanced at him with a cold look in her eyes, "Why me? Not my sister? Do you dislike my sister?"
Long Yi's face froze. His handsome face, which had always been imposing, seemed particularly insecure in front of his daughter.
He felt even more embarrassed when his daughter glared at him in public.
"Why, how could that be? Didn't I make a proposal for you? Look, you four brothers and sisters, the elders stay in the Mo Clan, and the younger ones follow me back to the Dragon Clan, how great is that, don't you think?"
As he spoke, he looked at Gongzi Yan begging for mercy, "Yan'er, Daddy doesn't mean to dislike you. Look, whether your surname is Long or Mo, you will have to get married in the future, right? No matter where you want to stay, you are the daughter of me and your mother. How could we dislike our own children? The surnames Long and Mo have nothing to do with each other. We are still a family even if our bones are broken, right?"
Gongzi Yan knew that Ling Yuan did this on purpose. In fact, she didn't really care about her surname. After all, they were a family, with one father's surname and one mother's surname. It really didn't matter.
"As long as mother agrees and my sister is happy, I don't mind. I believe my two brothers are the same."
Although Yuan'er is the youngest among them, she is the most attentive and independent one. The fact that she can use both her father's and mother's surnames shows that she really regards Long Yi as her own father. As the patriarch of the dragon clan, how can she not have descendants?
There was no way before, but now she wants to reform the Mo Clan. Naturally, their surname cannot just be Mo. Someone has to inherit the Dragon Clan, right?
Mo Zihuang didn't expect that even at this time, her daughters were still thinking about her, and she was extremely moved.
"Silly children, your mother was forced to do this. If possible, who wouldn't want to be the apple of your eye? Who would want to be in the spotlight? It's a pity that I didn't have the courage of Yuan'er at the time. But fortunately, fortunately, I can still see the reform of the Mo Clan in my lifetime. This is really the best thing that can't be better. I support you. As for the surname, it doesn't matter. Everything depends on you brothers and sisters. As a mother, I just want to accompany you well and make up for my absence over the years."
Ling Yuan rolled her eyes towards the sky and said, "Hmph, you're showing your love now, what were you doing before?"
However, the slightly upturned corners of her mouth also showed that she was in a good mood.
Come to think of it, she was originally worried that her dream would be difficult to realize, but now with Long Yi's return, everything has become so simple. How can she not be happy?
Ling Yuan felt so happy when she thought about her future where she could travel freely in the world.
An incense stick of time later, the two brothers came back, and the family sat down and had a lively discussion about the future plans of the Mo people. Also on the agenda was the future of the four brothers and sisters.
After some annoying bargaining and mutual concessions, it was finally decided that Mo Yin and Mo Qingyan would keep their original surnames, while Ling Yuan and Mo Yuan would change their names to Long Yuan and Long Qingge respectively.
In other words, after experiencing one misfortune after another, Ling Yuan changed her name one after another. Fortunately, she didn't take it to heart before. Although she didn't like the last time very much, it was just a code name. It was the name their parents originally gave them, so she had to accept it no matter how ugly it sounded.
Especially when Long Yi mentioned that if they didn't like it, he planned to unify their generation and names with the descendants of the dragon clan, they immediately raised their hands to show that they liked it.
"I like it. Why don't I like it? I like it very much."
Are you kidding? Why use the same name as those strangers when there is a familiar and unique name to call? As long as she thought of the descendants of a family, no matter whether it is male or female, there must be a given name after the surname, and her eyes would be filled with mosquito coils. Although this is the tradition of every family, it is too difficult to remember a person's name in this way.
In the next month, on the Mo clan's side, Ling Yuan would only show up when she was needed. All daily matters, big or small, were left to the three of them, father and son. However, in just half a month, the three of them, mother and daughter, had seen the changes in the Mo clan.
Seeing that the impurities of the Mo Clan were becoming less and less day by day, and the water quality was becoming cleaner with their cleaning, Mo Zihuang's heart was actually complicated. She even thought in her heart, if she had had such courage back then, would their family of six not have to be separated for so many years?
Finally, after twenty days, all the filth of the Mo Clan had been cleared out of the family. In order to better manage the Mo Clan, Ling Yuan, as a goddess, convened a general meeting of all members. Unlike previous years, this time she also invited the side branches and common people who were scattered outside. In her words, as long as everyone has the same surname, they are a family. Since they are a family, they are also qualified to participate in the competition.
As soon as the news was released, it shocked the Mo Clan and its people, and even the royal family and other major families were alarmed. Although they had long known that this goddess was no simple person, they never expected that she would be so bold as to be able to change the fate and bloodline of the Mo Clan. It was truly chilling.
On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the Laba Festival, the Mo clan held a grand selection ceremony. In addition to the position of the Mo clan leader, there were also various important departments and positions. Basically, Ling Yuan divided the clan according to the management system of a company.
Not only did he abolish the most useless Council of Elders, he also personally abolished his own positions as goddess and priest, and announced that from now on, the Mohist School would inherit according to a new round of inheritance laws, and from now on, regardless of whether it was a man or a woman, the strong would be respected.
As long as you have the ability and can stand out among many masters, then you are qualified to take over this position.
Moreover, this selection is not permanent. There will be a selection every three years in the future. If you are capable, you will continue to serve, and if you are not capable, you will be pulled down by up-and-coming talents. In this way, no matter who you are, you will have a sense of crisis. If you persist in this way, the entire atmosphere of the Mo Clan will change.
In the past, the Mo people lived in a muddle-headed state, living a life of idleness and waiting for death. However, with the joint efforts of all members of the four branches of the Mo family, they finally turned around this obstacle that could change the lives of not only the four branches but also the entire Mo people.
When thinking about the future in this way, there is no longer the previous despair and helplessness, but an additional sense of yearning and freshness. Just imagine, in such a competitive family, how can those who are qualified to stay not cherish it and how can they not work hard?
For Ling Yuan, this result was both satisfying and satisfying.
