Chapter 333
Cave world.
Another ten years.
Lie Xin is seventy years old.
Over the past ten years, she has consistently implemented her strategy.
On the one hand, strengthen the fire ant tribe.
On the one hand, weaken the Holy Ant tribe.
And pave the way for him to join the Holy Ant Tribe.
She knew very well that the current leader of the Holy Ant Tribe did not have many years left to live.
A young clan leader must be appointed as soon as possible.
The tradition of the Holy Ant Tribe is for the clan leader and five elders to appoint one person each.
Let these six people in total compete for the position of the young patriarch.
The fifth elder has no one under his command.
After decades of hard training, she has become a golden insect master.
Not surprisingly, she was one of the six.
But the Holy Ant Tribe is growing big.
He intended to make his great-grandson, who was still in his infancy, the young patriarch.
How can we buck the trend?
Now the overall strength of the fire ant tribe has expanded a lot.
But it's just on par with the Holy Ant Tribe.
If we attack by force, the end will be very miserable.
How to achieve maximum victory with minimum loss?
Lie Xin frowned and thought deeply.
At this time, Sheng Jie came quickly.
"Master, important information!"
"The First Elder and the Third Elder met privately with the Crazy Spider Tribe and secretly replaced all the insect masters guarding the tribe with their people."
Lie Xin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
What is this for?
Rebellion!
On weekdays, the third elder dances the most joyfully and claims to kill all the Mad Spider Tribe.
Unexpectedly, such a thick-browed and big-eyed man would have rebelled long ago.
Liexin is thoughtful.
This might be a good opportunity.
If used well.
He is very likely to seize the position of young patriarch.
Finally, after the death of the current clan leader, he took over the Holy Ant Tribe!
Lie Xin thought for a moment and then said, "Pass the order, the elite insect masters of the Fire Ant Tribe will immediately ambush in batches in the cave outside the Holy Ant Tribe, waiting for my order."
"In addition, I want to tell you that the secret agents who are under the command of the First Elder and the Third Elder are also waiting for my signal to act together."
Sheng Jie nodded respectfully, "Yes."
…
A few days later.
As expected, the Fifth Elder sent someone to bring the news.
The clan leader was dying soon, so he decided to hold a meeting to decide on the candidate for the young clan leader.
The clan leader and the five elders each designated a candidate and immediately went to the Holy Ant Tribe to participate in the competition for the young clan leader.
The person chosen by the fifth elder is Lie Xin.
Ever since Lie Xin showed her strength as a low-level golden insect master, no one dared to look down upon her.
In addition, although she is seventy years old, judging from the lifespan of a golden insect master, she still has a lot of time.
She is also the great-granddaughter of the Fifth Elder.
Based on emotion and reason, the five elders would all choose her.
A few more days.
Liexin arrived at the tribal hall of the Holy Ant Tribe, escorted by the insect master of the Holy Ant Tribe.
And I met the other five candidates for the Young Patriarch here.
The clan leader Sheng Wei was sitting in a chair and was carried in by four strong insect masters.
"What's your name? How come I've never seen you before?"
He noticed a bug master guarding the entrance to the hall and asked suddenly.
The insect master looked a little flustered, but still responded respectfully, "Clan leader, my name is Sheng Zixiong, and I have just been assigned to guard the tribal hall."
Sheng Wei nodded and entered the hall without paying much attention.
"Ahem... Now that everyone is here, let's get started."
The patriarch Sheng Wei coughed several times before speaking slowly.
He sat in the highest chair.
The entire body was immersed in soft fur.
Still tall and strong.
But it feels like a candle in the wind.
It will be extinguished the next moment.
Sheng Wei said calmly.
"According to the old rules, first recommend the candidate and then the reasons."
"After you say it all, it's up to me to make the decision."
Sheng Wei looked around, as if he was having a flashback.
He solemnly said, "When promoting a worthy person, do not avoid relatives. The person I recommend is my great-grandson."
"Although he is young, he is born with four insect apertures and will definitely become a platinum insect master in the future."
"He should be the young patriarch."
After Sheng Wei finished speaking, he looked at the others and said, "Everyone, it's your turn."
When he said this, he looked like a lion.
An old lion.
The great elder said calmly, "I recommend my eldest grandson."
Sheng Wei frowned and looked at the second elder, "What about you?"
The second elder laughed dryly and said, "I agree with the clan leader."
Sheng Wei's expression softened slightly and he looked at the third elder.
The third elder immediately stepped out and looked at Sheng Wei, "Clan leader, your great-grandson is young. I don't know how many years it will take before he becomes sensible."
"Our Holy Ant Tribe is surrounded by powerful enemies, but we don't have the time for him to grow."
Sheng Wei frowned.
His prestige within the Holy Ant tribe is so high that no one can surpass it.
This time it was supposed to be just a process.
In fact, everyone had known for a long time that he had already appointed his great-grandson as the young patriarch.
Now there was an accident?
The third elder said loudly, "Young clan leader is related to the future of the tribe, and there is no room for failure."
"Besides, the tribe is not just the leader's word."
"We should choose someone with ability and qualifications to assume the position of clan leader."
"I think the eldest grandson of the great elder is very suitable."
After saying that, he returned to his original position.
Sheng Wei frowned and looked at the fourth elder.
The fourth elder scratched his head, "Clan leader... I think this matter needs careful consideration..."
Sheng Wei's face was livid, and he looked at the fifth elder.
The fifth elder smiled awkwardly, "I recommend my great-granddaughter, but I think what the clan leader said makes sense, but I think we should still discuss it carefully..."
Lie Xin laughed in his heart.
What he said was really like a wheel.
Sheng Wei took a deep breath, "Big elder, third elder, are you determined not to cooperate with me?"
The third elder said righteously, "It's not that I don't cooperate, it's for the tribe!"
Sheng Wei laughed angrily, "What a good one for the tribe!"
"Clan leader guards, come out and take down the big elder and the third elder!"
Swish!
A large number of insect masters appeared immediately.
However, they did not salute Sheng Wei.
But they looked at the big elder and the third elder.
The leading golden insect master said respectfully, "Meet the Great Elder and the Third Elder!"
The Great Elder said calmly, "The tribe leader is old and dim, and has been deceived by the villain."
"Please ask the tribe leader to go back and rest!"
"The position of the young tribe leader will be discussed later!"
"Yes!" The leading insect master said respectfully.
Swish, swish, swish!
The insect masters immediately stood up and approached Sheng Wei.
Sheng Wei's face was pale, and his chest was filled with anger.
The faces of these insect masters were very unfamiliar, he had never seen them before.
He immediately guessed that it must be the Great Elder and the Third Elder who took the opportunity to replace the insect master guarding the tribe!
These two have been planning for a long time!
"You...you!"
Sheng Wei was so angry that he kept vomiting blood.
Although he was a platinum insect master, he was very old, and his strength was not as good as a golden upper-class insect master.
Now he had no way to deal with the Great Elder and the Third Elder.
Just then.
A voice suddenly sounded.
"The Fire Ant Tribe has objections."
