Chapter 5 Returning Home
"Elder Yan's words are serious. Qi Xianyun is dead. It's better for you to accept the reality. Everyone saw Qi Yunxian being beaten to death and thrown into the sea that day. I'm afraid he has been buried in the belly of the fish now, and the body can still be found there.
I think Qi Jiahua's attention is good. A figure like Brother Qi cannot be passed down without blood, but is this the right choice? Still to be considered. "
The only ones who dared to confront Yan Bingyun were the family elders who were also in the foundation building stage. Unlike Elder Yan, the one who spoke was Qi Guohua, the elder of the Qi family and the only remaining family elder of the Qi Yunxian lineage.
He is the cousin of Qi Yunxian's father. After the death of Qi Yunxian's father, he was the talkative person in their family.
Originally, among the six direct lineages, their lineage was only as powerful as the lineage of the current head of the family. Qi Yunxian's parents were two in the foundation stage, plus her mother's friend Yan Bingyun, there were three, plus Qi Guohua, there were four in the lineage. As an elder, he is not much weaker than the five foundation-building monks from the family leader's lineage.
This is why there are rumors within the clan that Qi Xianyun's father will be the next head of the family.
"What are you doing? Seniors from the same lineage don't think about how to find the missing Qi Xianyun, but think about how to divide the inheritance left by his parents. How can you have the nerve to say it? Don't talk about your excuses to deceive outsiders. You can't even think about yourself. Can’t be fooled.”
Yan Bingyun couldn't stand Qi Guohua's behavior, and that was it for the others. Qi Guohua's ability to build the foundation was entirely due to the support of Qi Xianyun's parents. Unexpectedly, he could do such a thing only three years after their death, which shows that he has a cold heart. .
"Yan Bingyun, what are you talking about? Today is the day of my nephew's funeral. This is not a place for you to be arrogant. This is a family matter of the Qi family and it is not your turn as an outsider to interfere. It is not up to you to decide whether to adopt an adopted child. No matter how you continue to make trouble, you can't mess with the Qi family's things."
Qi Guohua responded forcefully. As a foundation-building monk of the Qi family, his status is higher than that of ordinary guest elders. In addition, this matter is also a private matter of his lineage. How to deal with it is decided by him, the leader of the lineage. , Elder Keqing needs to intervene there.
This was true even when he was in front of the clan leader. To put it bluntly, he was the master of the Qi family after all, and Elder Keqing was just a guest, so what right did he have to make irresponsible remarks to him.
"you……."
Yan Bingyun was furious. She also knew that she could not decide anything. As the elder of the Qi family, some things were very sensitive, such as rashly intervening in the internal struggle of the Qi family. However, she was unwilling to say anything more.
At this time, a voice came from the crowd,
"What day is it today? The house is so lively. The last time this happened was three years ago. Oh, I haven't even had a funeral yet. Isn't that auspicious!"
A figure walked slowly from the crowd. It was Qi Yunxian who had come all the way.
"Yunxian, you're okay. That's great. Brother Qi has a successor, and he doesn't need someone else's cheap son."
Yan Bingyun looked at Qi Yunxian who had just returned with a look of surprise, and then said these words mockingly.
Qi Yunxian had just arrived, and he didn't know what the cheap son meant. He just saw that the faces of his second uncle in his memory and the foundation-building monk of the same lineage didn't look good.
"Thank you very much. Aunt Yan is concerned. My nephew survived the disaster and only returned to Baiyun Island today. Why did he hold a funeral for me as soon as he got home?"
Qi Yunxian's second uncle Qi Jiahua said with an apologetic smile,
"Hey, this is all my uncle's fault. I went to the clan to inquire about the situation that day. People who were traveling with you said that Yun Xian, you were killed and your body was thrown into the sea. That's why I decided to organize this funeral on my own. "
"Second uncle, have you never thought about looking for me? Why don't you even look for the body? It's too hasty to hold a funeral in such a hurry. You are really my good second uncle!"
Qi Jiahua also looked embarrassed when he was asked, but his heart was turned upside down. The man had clearly said that Qi Yunxian was dead, and his body was thrown into the sea without any bones left. Otherwise, why would he be in such a hurry to hold a funeral and prepare to put his own body in it? The son passed over and legitimately took over the inheritance of Qi Yunxian's family.
Others may not know it, but Qi Jiahua, as the second uncle, naturally knows how much inheritance his brother left. The contribution points from the clan alone are enough to exchange for two Foundation Establishment Pills, and there are also three high-grade magic weapons stored in the clan. pieces, a top-grade magic weapon, and 12,000 low-grade spiritual stones.
Who wouldn't be tempted by such wealth? He couldn't resist the temptation and reached a deal with a big shot in the clan. That person would support him in seizing Qi Yunxian's inheritance, and he only needed to transfer all his contribution points to the other party. Coupled with that top-quality magic weapon, the other party can block all pressure from the clan for him, including the pressure from the clan leader.
This is also the reason why Qi Jiahua, a mere ninth-level Qi practitioner, dares to participate in this matter. Otherwise, after Qi Yunxian's death, how would he dare to touch this hot potato? The price of the Foundation Establishment Pill fluctuates around 10,000 spirit stones. Because of where they are The sea area is remote, and not many Foundation Establishment Pills flow out, but it is not none.
Every twenty years or so, he can probably buy one or two Foundation Establishment Pills. In other words, as long as he has those 12,000 spirit stones, he can definitely give his son a chance to build a Foundation, and even After selling those three high-grade magic weapons, you can still have a chance to build a foundation.
Who can resist such temptation?
"Humph, Qi Yunxian, you insist on going to sea with the fleet and asking for trouble. My father also kindly took care of your funeral because he knew you died outside. You are still ungrateful and questioned my father. Why are you still here?" Is there any respect for elders or younger ones?”
Qi Yunpeng also saw that his father was speechless when he was asked, and immediately jumped out to confuse the audience.
"Oh, so that's it. Then should I thank my second uncle properly?"
"No, no, since you're fine Yunxian, we'll leave first."
Qi Jiapeng couldn't hear the sarcasm in his words, so he pulled Qi Yunpeng who was still trying to argue and turned away.
