"Xiao Chen!"
Duanmu Ci looked at himself in the mirror, gritting his teeth with blood on the corners of his mouth and a pale face.
"Young Master, how are you?"
Next to him, a middle-aged man looked at Duanmu Ci with a worried look on his face.
His heart was also not at peace.
That Xiao Chen, could actually injure their young master with just one strike?
What kind of strength does Xiao Chen have!
You know, over the years, as the pride of the Duanmu family, Duanmu Ci had many rivals and swept across the three nearby provinces.
But now, he suffered a loss after fighting with Xiao Chen.
"I must kill Xiao Chen!"
Duanmu Ci's eyes were cold, filled with murderous intent and hatred.
"Young Master, what is his strength? Is he a master of Hua Jin?"
The middle-aged man hesitated and asked.
"no."
Duanmu Ci wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shook his head.
"It should also be the Great Perfection of Dark Energy."
"Dark power is perfect?"
The middle-aged man's eyelids twitched a few times.
"So, does he deserve to be ranked tenth on the Tianjiao list?"
"I underestimated this guy before!"
Duanmu Ci looked at the blood on the mirror and clenched his fists.
"But even if he is stronger than me, so what! He must die!"
"Yes, Master, I believe you!"
The middle-aged man nodded and handed over the tissue.
Duanmu Ci took it, wiped the blood off his hands, and threw away the tissue.
"Take care of this place so no one can see it."
"Yes, young master."
The middle-aged man nodded and began to clean the bloodstains on the sink and mirror.
Duanmu Ci turned around and walked out of the bathroom and headed towards the meeting room.
In the conference room, Jiang Tiansheng glanced around the room and said, "Mr. Lin, Mr. Xiao, it seems that the people from the Zhao family haven't come in yet."
"No need to wait for the Zhao family, they won't come."
Xiao Chen shook his head and said lightly.
"They won't come? I saw the Zhao family coming just now."
Jiang Tiansheng was stunned.
The people from the Chu family and the Zhuge family were also a little surprised and looked at Lin Nan.
Just now, it was Lin Nan who called out Zhao Dechang and Zhao Laowu.
And now, Lin Nan is here, but what about Zhao Dechang and Zhao Laowu?
"The Zhao family did something they shouldn't have done, so they don't have to attend this nomination meeting."
The one who spoke was Lin Nan, who represented the court.
After hearing Lin Nan's words, people like Mr. Bai and others who knew the situation did not change much.
People from powerful families like the Jiang family, the Chu family, and the Zhuge family all changed their expressions. Did something happen to the Zhao family?
"Okay, let's not talk about the Zhao family anymore. Let's start the nomination meeting now."
Lin Nan said, looking at Xiao Chen.
"Mr. Xiao, as the leader of the seven major families, you will host this nomination meeting."
"Haha, since Mr. Lin said so, I will take the lead."
Xiao Chen smiled and nodded.
He was quite happy to do this kind of thing where he could take over the show.
Mr. Bai and the others also smiled. Since this nomination meeting was hosted by Xiao Chen, their interests would definitely not be shaken.
Jiang Tiansheng frowned. This was a huge deviation from their previous plan!
Click.
The door of the conference room opened and Duanmu Ci walked in again.
He had a gloomy face and his eyes fell on the three chairs at the top.
Among them, two seats were already occupied, Lin Nan and Xiao Chen.
There was only one left, and it was empty.
He didn't want to go over, but thinking about today's nomination meeting, he suppressed his anger and walked forward slowly.
"Duanmu Ci, right? I'll keep in mind what happened just now for now. If you want to fight, I'm always here to accompany you..."
Xiao Chen looked at Duanmu Ci and said lightly.
"you……"
Duanmu Ci glared, but thinking of Xiao Chen's strength, he endured it.
"Heh, did you vomit blood just now? Do you feel better after vomiting blood?"
Xiao Chen looked at him a few more times and said playfully.
“…”
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Duanmu Ci's energy and blood, which he had just suppressed, almost surged up again, and he vomited another mouthful of blood.
"My dear Duanmu, please sit down first."
Jiang Tiansheng was afraid that Duanmu Ci and Xiao Chen would have another conflict, so he tried to smooth things over.
Seeing that Jiang Tiansheng was talking, Duanmu Ci felt that he had a way out. He nodded, pulled out a chair and sat down.
However, he was quite far away from Xiao Chen.
First, he was unwilling to lean on him, and second, he was on guard. What if Xiao Chen suddenly attacked him?
"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's start the nomination meeting! I'm a newcomer, so I don't know much about the specific process... Brother Lin, can you tell me about it?"
Xiao Chen turned around and looked at Lin Nan and said.
"Um?"
Listening to Xiao Chen's words, Duanmu Ci next to him frowned. What does this guy mean?
Wasn't it him who proposed this meeting today?
"Haha, okay, then I'll tell you."
Lin Nan nodded and stood up.
drop.
Duanmu Ci's cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was a message from Jiang Yu.
"Brother Duanmu, don't be impulsive, be patient for a while."
Duanmu Ci turned his head to look at Jiang Yu, who shook his head slightly.
Snap!
The mobile phone in Duanmu Ci's hand was crushed by him.
When Xiao Chen heard the noise, he glanced to the side and sneered in his heart, "Boy, there are only so many people here today, otherwise, I would crush you to pieces!"
After Lin Nan explained the rules, the people at the scene started a discussion.
Originally, Lin Nan wanted to nominate the Zhao family, the Chu family, and the Zhuge family, but now that the Zhao family has been removed from the list, the Chu family and the Zhuge family cannot take the position either.
Not for any other reason, but because there is no room.
Among the seven major families, five... no, six are on Xiao Chen's side, so they are allies and a community of interests.
Therefore, the imperial court naturally could not take any further action.
Moreover, if we can take action against the Duanmu family this time, our goal will be achieved.
"I brought some data this time, which is also the basis for the evaluation of the seven major families..."
Lin Nan opened his briefcase, took out a stack of things from it and placed them on the table.
"Everyone, take a look."
Then the pages were passed around and everyone was given one.
Xiao Chen also took a look and his expression became strange.
Although this was his first time attending a nomination meeting, he knew as soon as he saw the paper that it was bullshit.
Above, among the seven major families, the data of two families are a bit ugly.
These two families are the Jiang family and the Ouyang family.
Before today, the Ouyang family had not made any statement, so the court obviously wanted to take action against the Ouyang family.
Not to mention the imperial court, didn’t Xiao Chen also have his eyes on the Ouyang family before?
So, when Mr. Ouyang saw the data, his face trembled noticeably, and he knew very well what was going on.
Even the people present knew what was going on.
Look, Jiang Tiansheng’s face also looks a little ugly.
Although this is just a nomination meeting, we can still tell what's going on.
He narrowed his eyes. Is the imperial court going to take action against the Jiang family?
Then he looked at Duanmu Ci and shook his head secretly.
I don’t know what the Duanmu family was thinking. Why did they send Duanmu Ci this time?
Although Duanmu Ci is the prodigy of the Duanmu family, he has talent in cultivation but lacks a lot when it comes to handling things!
"Everyone has seen it, right? Jiang family and Ouyang family, your contribution to Longhai in the past few years is not that great."
Lin Nan looked at them and spoke slowly.
"Hmm? Brother Lin, is this thing based on contribution?"
Xiao Chen added.
"Not entirely, but if we want to develop in Longhai, we can't just develop ourselves, we have to let this city develop as well, right?"
Lin Nan explained.
"Yeah, that's true. You can't just take, you have to give, right?"
Xiao Chen nodded.
"That's right."
Lin Nan chuckled.
"But if that's the case, I think the Ouyang family and the Jiang family should have done a good job."
Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Um?"
Hearing this, many people were stunned. Why did he speak well of the Jiang family?
Before they could react, they heard Xiao Chen continue: "In my opinion, the one who has made no contribution to Longhai is not the Jiang family and the Ouyang family, but... the Duanmu family!"
“…”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone understood at once that this was aimed at the Duanmu family!
However, when they thought about it carefully, there seemed to be nothing wrong with this statement.
"Xiao Chen, what do you mean!"
Duanmu Ci couldn't bear it any longer, stared at Xiao Chen and asked angrily.
"What do you mean? Oh, am I wrong? Over the years, your Duanmu family has gained a lot of benefits in Longhai, right? But what have you brought to Longhai? Have you added a brick or a tile to the construction of Longhai?"
Xiao Chen looked at Duanmu Ci and asked mockingly.
"I...why don't I have any!"
Duanmu Ci stared at Xiao Chen and said loudly.
"Yes? Oh, I think your Duanmu family is only making money in Longhai, right?"
Xiao Chen sneered.
"For people who only seek benefits, I think they should withdraw from Longhai!"
“…”
Listening to Xiao Chen's words, many people secretly took a deep breath. This boy is really cruel. He hits the snake at its most vulnerable part!
"Who said we only benefited? The Duanmu family controls so many forces. They have made contributions to Longhai, which is equivalent to the contribution made by the Duanmu family!"
Duanmu Ci said coldly.
"Really? I'd like to know how many forces the Duanmu family controls... Duanmu Ci, how about you tell me in detail?"
Xiao Chen looked at Duanmu Ci and asked slowly.
"I……"
Duanmu Ci opened his mouth, and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
He is not stupid!
Can you talk about this thing?
What he didn't know was that all the people he had brought in to increase his numbers were controlled by Xiao Chen.
Therefore, it makes no difference whether he says it now or not.
"Since you haven't made any contribution, why should you share the benefits? The Duanmu family should withdraw from Longhai."
Seeing that Duanmu Ci didn't say anything, Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze and said coldly.
"Well, I think what Mr. Xiao said makes some sense."
Lin Nan secretly admired him, held back his laughter, and cooperated with Xiao Chen.
“Second.”
Mr. Bai nodded.
"I second that."
Mr. Su followed closely behind.
In a blink of an eye, except for the Jiang family, the six major families all agreed with Xiao Chen's words.
Even Xue Zhanhu and Luo Shijie nodded.
Even though they are just here for fun today, their opinions cannot be ignored.
As for the Chu family, the Zhuge family and others, they have no right to speak.
This is also the reason why all forces want to join the seven major families.
Becoming one of the seven major families is equivalent to having real say in Longhai.
