"Hmph, gifted?"
"That's just a matter of the future. Who can guarantee that he will really achieve something in the future?"
"Besides, the so-called clan leader's order in his hand might just be something he picked up by chance."
Having said this, the elder paused briefly, glanced around at everyone present, and continued, "Then he deliberately deceived you, falsely claiming to be someone recognized by our ancestors."
Seeing this, the old lady on the side quickly spoke up to agree and persuaded earnestly.
"Yes, Zhenhua."
"Our family suffered heavy losses in the last disaster, and it took us a lot of hardship to finally recover some of our strength."
"If we rashly hand over power to a young brat, we will be dragged into the internal disputes and struggles of the demon clan."
"The risks involved are simply too great!"
"Zhenhua, this matter concerns the prosperity and decline of the entire family. You must consider it carefully and think it over carefully before acting!"
Seeing their strong reaction, Mu Zhenhua couldn't help but think in his heart.
After a long while, he finally lowered his head slowly. After some deep thought, he said softly, "Well, since everyone thinks so... then..."
"Grandpa."
At this moment, a crisp and clear voice suddenly came from outside the house, interrupting Mu Zhenhua's unfinished words.
Everyone in the hall turned their gazes outside the house at the same time, wanting to see who was coming to disrupt the situation at this time.
Lu Jingzhi was seen striding towards them, followed by Mu Jin and the woman with braids.
Mu Zhenhua coughed and introduced to everyone, "This is Lu Jingzhi, my grandson."
Then, he pointed to the old man and the old woman and said, "Jingzhi, this is my great uncle, and this is my great aunt."
"This is my third uncle..."
Lu Jingzhi put on a polite smile and greeted the eight elders in the living room.
After knowing their respective identities, Lu Jingzhi finally understood why these people were arguing endlessly.
It turned out that this elder of the big clan and the elders of the second clan were quite old and of noble generation.
When they heard what Mu Zhenhua was thinking, they led the other elders to put pressure on the clan leader.
These two respected elders tried to influence Mu Zhenhua's decision by relying on their status and influence.
In addition, there are the third to sixth clan elders, who are people of the same generation as Mu Zhenhua.
Under the guidance of the two elders, these elders resolutely chose to have a fierce dispute with Mu Zhenhua.
Both sides insisted on their own opinions and refused to give in, and the situation was at a stalemate for a while.
As for the elders in the back row, since they are all of the same generation as Mu Jin, they are facing such a complicated situation.
For a moment I didn't know how to make a decision.
As a result, these elders chose to remain silent and sit quietly by to watch the development of the situation.
At this moment, the elder of the clan turned his gaze to Lu Jingzhi and began to look the young man in front of him carefully.
He frowned slightly, a look of disdain on his face, and said coldly, "Humph! You're only at the Xuanhuang realm, but you don't even have the qualifications to be a clan elder."
After hearing this, Lu Jingzhi did not get angry. Instead, he calmly met the elder's gaze and responded without flinching.
"Great uncle, I'm afraid you have misunderstood."
"What misunderstanding?"
"To be honest, not only do I have no interest in becoming a clan elder, I'm even uninterested in the so-called position of clan leader."
"If I were not given this position, I would be ecstatic."
"You're so arrogant! Besides, is this how you talk to your elders?"
"Great uncle, you misunderstood me."
"I have always been respectful to my elders and have never shown any disrespect to them."
"It's just that you always like to teach others with the airs of an elder."
The clan elder never expected that this seemingly young and naive junior in front of him would dare to openly confront him, and his attitude was so arrogant and unruly.
He couldn't help but get so angry that his face turned blue, and he shouted angrily: "What an ignorant young man!"
"Is this how Mu Jin teaches his son? It's totally inappropriate!"
Mu Jin was anxious to stop him from continuing, but Lu Jingzhi waved his hand gently and gave her a reassuring look, indicating that everything was fine.
"Could it be that my words hit the mark, and that's why my great uncle got angry out of shame?"
Hearing this, the clan elder was so angry that his neck turned red and he roared with his eyes wide open.
"You ignorant brat, how dare you speak to me like that? Are you looking for a fight?!"
Seeing this, Mu Zhenhua hurried forward, separating Lu Jingzhi from the elders, and anxiously urged, "Alright, alright, stop arguing!"
"Since everyone disagrees, Jingzhi no longer needs to serve as the clan leader."
At this moment, the elder added, "Also, we will definitely not get involved in the demon clan's internal affairs!"
When Lu Jingzhi heard this, his face darkened slightly and he sighed in his heart. In fact, he had expected things to develop like this.
