Chapter 20: The 3-Day Battle
Outside the Ziyun Cave, the clansmen were surrounded by water.
After all, it is a grand event that only occurs once every three years, and the clansmen also want to see how much the most outstanding children of the family have grown.
"Come out, they came out." A sharp-eyed clansman shouted.
"Seeing that they are all smiling, it must be that their cultivation has soared."
The clansmen were discussing at length.
The relatives of the ten family members were even more eager to ask.
"Zimu, how's it going?"
"Zhuang'er, where to rebuild now?"
"..."
"Yi'er." The third elder looked at Xiao Yi lovingly.
"Third elders rest assured, Yi'er has gained a lot in it." Xiao Yi said with a smile.
"That's good." The third elder did not ask Xiao Yi's cultivation, but nodded. For him, the surprise Xiao Yi gave him ten days ago was enough. No matter what Xiao Yi gained in Ziyun Cave, he was very satisfied.
However, in this piece of laughter, the faces of two people became very ugly.
One is Xiao Ruohan, and the other is his father Fifth Elder.
"What the hell is going on?" the fifth elder said angrily, "Yi Ruohan, your Huang rank martial soul can definitely condense Qi Dan, how could you suddenly not be able to absorb spiritual energy on the last day?"
Xiao Ruohan shook his head and said in a low voice, "I don't know either, but I feel that the last day was the work of that little trash."
"Impossible." The fifth elder said, "The little trash doesn't have that ability, and his red-rank martial spirit and low aptitude are far from your opponent."
Xiao Ruohan retorted, "However, how to explain his sudden increase in strength a few days ago? I don't believe that he can really jump quadruple in half a month, and his strange moves. I think there must be some of them. ghost."
The fifth elder was silent for a while, and said solemnly, "Ignore this for now, you can't break through to the Houtian realm. Although things will become troublesome later, fortunately, I have already prepared."
"Ready?" Xiao Ruohan was slightly puzzled.
"Yeah." The fifth elder smiled and said, "Ruohan, let me ask you, with your current strength, can you be sure to win the little trash?"
"Naturally there is." Xiao Ruohan affirmed, "Although I don't know how far his cultivation has grown during these days in Ziyun Cave, it is absolutely impossible to break through to the acquired realm."
"As long as he is not in the Houtian realm, with my Fire Cloud Python spirit, it is enough to exert the strength to crush him."
Xiao Ruohan is quite scheming, often scheming others, but he guessed some of Xiao Yi's situation.
"Okay, you can do it if you are sure." After the fifth elder said, he suddenly walked in front of all the clansmen.
"Clansmen, please listen to me." With the support of deep infuriating energy, the voice of the fifth elder was extremely high-pitched.
The lively atmosphere of the clansmen stopped instantly, and they all looked at him.
"What the hell is this guy trying to do?" Xiao Yi and the third elder frowned at the same time.
"The clansmen." The fifth elder said with a look of righteousness and awe, "The so-called family can't be without a master for a day, the position of the head of the Xiao family has been vacant for a long time, and the family is getting worse and worse, as the elder of the Xiao family, I will never I would like to see the Xiao family decline day by day."
"So, I propose to re-elect the Patriarch!"
The fifth elder's words were too sudden, and the clansmen couldn't react.
In fact, although the position of the Xiao family's patriarch is vacant, the third elder, as the acting patriarch, has taken care of the Xiao family very well over the years. Not to mention thriving, but also the same prestige.
Some clansmen questioned at the moment, "When has the position of the head of the Xiao family ever been vacant? The head of the family is still the head of the family, but he is not there now. Moreover, the fifth elder, you wrote a lyric proposal today, could it be that you want to be the head of the family?"
The fifth elder immediately replied solemnly, "The head of the family has been missing for a long time, and only exists in name only. Moreover, in order to avoid criticism, I now promise in front of all the clan members,
I will never be the owner of this house. "
The fifth elder continued, "As an elder, I should put my family first. What the Xiao family needs now is a courageous leader. Although I am not old, I am old, and there are no young people. Ambitious."
The clansmen said, "It's rare that the five elders have a deep understanding of the righteousness, but how important the position of the head of the family is, how can you say that you can choose to choose, you must consider it from a long-term perspective."
"Of course I know this." Fifth Elder said, "So, now we are just preparing for the future. One of the preparations is to elect a capable young patriarch."
"Young Patriarch?" The clansmen suddenly had a strange look on their faces, and there were many discussions.
The third elder on the side scolded secretly, already understood the intention of the fifth elder, and immediately shouted, "Fifth elder, don't go too far, half a month ago you were in trouble everywhere. If you choose the young head of the family, do you really think that Xiao Zhong can bully me?"
When Xiao Yi was involved, the third elder immediately became angry, and his true qi burst out, and he had the potential to fight.
The fifth elder seemed to have expected the performance of the third elder long ago, and said calmly, "The third elder is calm, don't be impatient, the position of the Xiao family's patriarch has always been held by the capable. Back then, the patriarch's cultivation level was the highest in the entire clan. , it is understandable that his son Xiao Yi becomes the head of the young family."
"But now the head of the family has been missing for many years, and there is no news. If Xiao Yi is still the young head of the family, wouldn't it be too unfair to the children of other families. If Xiao Yi has the ability, the position of the head of the younger family should be freely taken by him. But if he is incompetent, then I must not sit idly by, lest he delay the development of the family in the future."
"In the end, I just don't want our Xiao family to fall into the hands of an incompetent person in the future."
The five elders spoke in a row, speaking with deep affection and sincerity. I don't know, I would really think that he is a person who does everything for the family and thinks about everything.
"It sounds nice." The third elder retorted, "Yi'er only defeated Xiao Zimu ten days ago, why is he incompetent?"
The fifth elder smiled and said, "Since the third elder thinks that Xiao Yi is capable, let's test it."
"How to test?" the third elder asked.
"It's very simple," said the fifth elder, "Xiao Yi must accept the challenge of all the family members again."
"Challenge?" Third Elder frowned.
"That's right," the fifth elder said with a smile, "The position of Young Patriarch must be held by the most outstanding children. Today, the major geniuses of our Xiao Family have cultivated from the Ziyun Cave. He has an extraordinary bearing. If a better young patriarch can be selected from among them, even if the patriarch still has no news in the future, my Xiao family will not be without a leader, and a new leader can be selected as soon as possible."
The fifth elder's remarks were seamless, and all of them expressed the consideration of the family, which immediately made the clansmen no longer questioned.
Of course, from some angles, his proposal today is not wrong.
"It seems that if I don't teach you a lesson, you will really get better and better." The third elder couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and was about to take action immediately.
Xiao Yi grabbed him, then stood up and said loudly, "I accept the challenge of any child. According to your intention, Fifth Elder, when will the inspection begin?"
Xiao Yi knew very well that Xiao Ruohan was the only one who challenged all the so-called children.
After all, since he easily defeated Xiao Zimu ten days ago, the other disciples have felt that they are not opponents. Only Xiao Ruohan has the ability to fight himself.
Moreover, I believe that in the hearts of many clansmen, they also want to know whether it is Xiao Ruohan, the first person of the younger generation, or himself, the suddenly rising young patriarch, who is stronger.
"Refreshing." The fifth elder said loudly, "It's rare that Xiao Yi, you have a deep understanding of righteousness and righteousness. I admire you. You have just come out of Ziyun Cave, and you must have been exhausted. In order to make you exert more strength, I will give you three days. Time to rest, three days later, the family competition arena, accept the challenge."
"Humph." Xiao Yi sneered in his heart, "It sounds nice on the lips, but I don't know what conspiracy is going on behind the scenes."
However, he still said, "Okay, just follow your wishes, Fifth Elder."
