"You decide?"
The Xu family imperial lineage scoffed, "You're just a woman? What gives you the right to make decisions?"
"Because I am the head of the Xu family!" Liu Qingyan said coldly.
"joke!!"
The Xu family's imperial lineage roared: "The leader of the Xu family will only be a man of the Xu family!"
Rumble!
Before the words had even finished, a black vortex suddenly appeared in the sky, releasing terrifyingly destructive waves. The pressure caused the Xu family's imperial lineage to breathe rapidly, their eyes filled with apprehension and fear.
"Who is being insolent here? How dare they be so arrogant and domineering in front of the current head of the Xu family?"
Liu Qingyan coldly retorted, "Do you think that no one in the Xu family can handle you?"
"Who are you!!!"
The Xu family's imperial lineage asked sternly.
"The current head of the Xu family—Liu Qingyan!"
Liu Qingyan announced loudly, "I'm only doing this to give you face by coming to discuss this with you imperial lineage people; otherwise, I could slap you to death!"
Looking at the vortex above his head, the Xu family imperial lineage was dismissive. He raised his spear into the sky, trying to break the threat of the vortex.
Whoosh!!
However, his spear was shredded before it could fly more than a hundred meters away. The vortex spun wildly and turned into a tornado that swallowed him up.
The Xu family's imperial lineage was greatly surprised, and their figures suddenly disappeared, reappearing in the void thousands of meters away.
The vortex devoured space and annihilated everything; it was terrifying beyond measure.
"How terrifying!!!"
Everyone was horrified; that black hole seemed capable of tearing apart heaven and earth—it was truly terrifying.
"I never expected that the Xu family could have someone like you under such rules of heaven and earth."
A series of sighs echoed from the depths of the imperial tomb. "You and that brat who disturbed us twenty years ago, you must be husband and wife. The Xu family is blessed to have you two. Tell me, what brings you here today?"
"I want my son, Xu Xiwang, to be the leader of the Xu family this generation, and the future head of the family!"
Liu Qingyan got straight to the point.
These words shocked everyone present.
After a moment of silence, the corpse of the imperial lineage roared again, "Are you dreaming?! In other times, it might be fine, but at this moment, it's absolutely unacceptable!"
"Twenty years ago, your husband forcibly broke into this place and drained the power of the Imperial Vein from us old folks, causing the Imperial Vein's power to wither and it hasn't recovered yet."
"Each generation of the Xu family head can absorb the power of the imperial bloodline once, but the essence of that imperial bloodline takes decades to recover. Now you want your son to become the family head and absorb the imperial bloodline again, but once the Emperor Star is born, it will be impossible to absorb it!"
Several members of the Xu family's imperial lineage spoke up to dissuade them.
“Our imperial lineage’s essence is already insufficient. If your son continues to absorb it, we will be unable to sustain the absorption of the Imperial Star.”
The person with the imperial lineage looked grave: "What if the power of the imperial lineage dissipates completely, and an imperial star is born?!"
As she listened to their words, Xu Xiwang's eyes flickered slightly.
The Xu family's imperial lineage—it turns out the power of the imperial lineage is almost exhausted?
"Then we don't need Emperor Star."
Liu Qingyan said calmly, "The power of the imperial lineage has dissipated, the imperial star has vanished, but the Xu family still exists. My son has absorbed the imperial lineage and will lead the future of the Xu family. The Xu family will still be an invincible force."
"Hahaha."
Upon hearing this, the powerful members of the Xu family's imperial lineage burst into laughter as if they had heard the funniest joke: "Abandon the Emperor Star and let your son lead the Xu family to rise again? Liu Qingyan, are you out of your mind? Don't you understand the enormous changes that the birth of the Emperor Star will cause this time?"
"What makes your son compare to Emperor Star? Emperor Star is the son of Emperor Ming!"
"Once the Emperor Star is born, he will surely rule the world. You are pushing the Xu family into a fire pit."
"What you're doing not only harms your son, but also pushes the Xu family into the abyss. You will kill all members of the Xu family."
"Liu Qingyan, are you out of your mind?!"
Many powerful figures from the imperial lineage angrily denounced Liu Qingyan from within the tomb.
“You are right, the Xu family’s imperial lineage is indeed the head of my Xu family.”
Liu Qingyan suddenly laughed and said, "But that was before. Now, the Xu family is under my, Liu Qingyan's, control."
"I, Liu Qingyan, refuse to believe in evil spirits. I want my son to take the throne. What can you do about it?"
Her words resounded far and wide, exuding an awe-inspiring and domineering aura.
"presumptuous!!"
"Liu Qingyan, what are you trying to do!"
The crowd was furious and wished they could rush out of the grave and suppress Liu Qingyan.
"You're not convinced?!"
Liu Qingyan snorted coldly, took a step forward, and her whole body erupted with a monstrous aura.
"If you're not convinced, then let's fight!!!"
"If you have the guts and are willing to fight to the death, then crawl out of your graves and talk!"
Buzzing!
In an instant, Liu Qingyan's murderous aura swept across the entire world.
The powerful members of the Xu family couldn't help but tremble as they felt Liu Qingyan's aura.
