"so……"
The Great Elder continued calmly, "An Hefeng, it's not your turn to take the position of steward yet."
His words deeply touched An Hefeng's heart.
"Great Elder, I don't accept it. I'm clearly more qualified, so why do you call me useless? The position of manager is for the capable, so why can't I compete for it?"
The Great Elder remained extremely calm and did not answer the question directly.
In the eyes of outsiders, An Wushuang, the eldest son of the Treasure Hunting Chamber of Commerce, is inferior to the second and third brothers in terms of cultivation qualifications and business ability.
But no one knows that An Wushuang is the strongest in both aspects.
Over the years, An Wushuang had already recruited another elder with the cultivation level of Immortal King in the An family besides him. In addition, he himself also broke through to the Immortal King a few years ago.
As for business, An Wushuang's annual sales profit is more than three times that of the two brothers combined.
It's just that he likes to keep a low profile, so he has been hiding his incompetence and has not completely exposed it.
The Great Elder said indifferently: "Release An Ruoxuan, and you can live, otherwise you will die immediately."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Only An Hefeng was left lying on the ground with a livid face. He stood up with difficulty, his eyes filled with cold murderous intent.
hateful!
Old man, one day I will kill you with my own hands to avenge the humiliation I suffered today.
An Hefeng took a deep breath to calm the anger in his heart. He turned around and left the Treasure Hunting Chamber of Commerce. An Ruoxuan's affairs were discovered by the Great Elder, so the plan needed to be reformulated and the Third Elder needed to be called back to discuss it.
The law enforcement elder immediately asked, "Young Master, should An Ruoxuan be released?"
An Hefeng turned his head coldly and said, "Do you want to die?"
The Great Elder said that if he was not released, he would die immediately. This was definitely not a joke. If the Great Elder wanted to kill him, even the family would not be able to say anything.
After all, who is the Great Elder?
A powerful late-stage Immortal King!
He holds a very important position in the entire An family. How could a junior like him compare to him?
Upon hearing this, the law enforcement elder crawled towards the secret room.
......
Haishan Forest in the eastern suburbs.
"Third Elder, how are you?"
A chuckle was heard, and An Wushuang was seen standing in the void. There were two figures beside him, one was the fifth elder of the An family, and the other was a person of unknown identity.
Below, the bodies of two perfect Hunyuan Golden Immortals were already lying in a pool of blood.
The third elder also had a hideous penetrating wound on his abdomen, with blood constantly spilling out, looking extremely miserable.
He was breathing weakly and was obviously seriously injured.
now.
His face was full of ferocity and disbelief.
"How is it possible, An Wushuang, how could you be in the early stage of Immortal King? And Lao Wu, are you going to help him too?"
The Fifth Elder smiled faintly upon hearing this: "Look at what you said. I'm not as stupid as you. Why would I choose a loser like An Hefeng?"
As soon as these words came out, the third elder suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable.
In this comparison, the gap between An Hefeng and An Wushuang is indeed not a little bit big.
But he didn't understand, how could An Wushuang be in the early stage of Immortal King? Wasn't his cultivation worse than An Hefeng?
Why?
Have you been hiding your abilities all these years?
What kind of character does one have to be so patient?
The Fifth Elder's face was filled with pride. He said sarcastically, "Third Elder, when I was cultivating at the Primordial Golden Immortal level, you suppressed me like crazy. After I broke through to the Immortal King level, you were afraid that I would affect your status, so you continued to suppress me like crazy."
"Did you expect your ending today?"
"The Great Elder is right. You are truly an idiot, a mere parasite of the Treasure Hunting Chamber of Commerce. The Third Brother has good business skills, but what's the point of doing business? That's why the neutral faction all chooses the Third Brother."
"Because they all know that even if the third brother loses in the end, he will still be given important positions. Since his qualifications are average and the threat is too small, supporting him is the most cost-effective."
"And you want to expand your position in the An family, but you're so foolish as to support the Second Young Master. Isn't that stupid?"
The fifth elder was very excited when he spoke. He had wanted to take revenge for a long time. He was suppressed too badly by the third elder in the An family. Now he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Although they are both in the early stage of Immortal King, he has a shallow foundation in the An family. However, the third elder has his own small group with very strong strength. In addition, there is an Immortal King in the An family who is allied with him and secretly helps An Hefeng.
"As for why you should support the eldest young master, since the Great Elder has already taken sides, is there still anything to consider? Or do you think that your cultivation level of an early Immortal King can compete with the Great Elder?"
"What the eldest master said is quite right. An Hefeng and you are both idiots. You think you are so smart every day. You almost made me die of laughter."
"If you use your pig brain to carefully investigate the deeds of the eldest son, you will find some clues."
"Why do you think the Third Young Master has so many supporters? It's because they all saw that the First Young Master was extraordinary, so they chose the Third Young Master for the sake of safety."
"Do you really think you're the smartest person in the world, the only one who knows that cultivation is more important than business talent?"
The Third Elder's expression was extremely serious. He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't be complacent. If I die, the head of the family will definitely conduct a thorough investigation, and you will definitely not feel good about it."
“Hahahahahaha!”
The Fifth Elder laughed even more wildly upon hearing this, and his tears were almost bursting out.
"Third Elder, you are really driving me crazy."
