Chapter 409 Brother Yong Is so Daring
In the hall, except for Duan Yuanxin's voice, there was silence.
The white-haired old man still had two arrows on his bow. Although they were hanging down, it was obvious that as long as he heard a different voice, one of the two arrows would definitely shoot the person who made the different voice.
Didn't you see that the most authoritative elders here shut their mouths and sat there dejectedly?
The Duan family is not without people. Above the elders of the elders council, there are many super strong people who have been in seclusion for many years.
Any of those people should be able to kill the white-haired old man here.
But those people don't care at all!
They are determined to become emperors.
Unless it is a matter of life and death for the entire Duan family, they will not come out.
"No one agrees to impeach the head of the family?" Duan Yuanxin asked loudly.
There was not much pride in his loud voice, but the members of the elders council present knew very well that the head of the family won this battle.
"Okay, no one agrees."
Duan Yuanxin sighed softly: "Then, is there anyone who opposes?"
There was a dead silence in the hall.
No one answered his question either.
Even those who originally supported him very much, those who should have echoed him at this time - those who opposed us, did not speak out.
Duan Yuanxin laughed.
There was a bit of sarcasm in his voice.
"Okay, the entire elders' council, one person opposed, zero people agreed, so I declare that the impeachment is invalid!"
After that, a soft sigh came from the whole hall, and many people couldn't help but look at the white-haired old man, but were surprised to find that the white-haired old man had disappeared without a trace at some point.
At this time, the elder raised his head, glanced at Duan Yuanxin, and said in a deep voice: "Are you happy that we have invited the closest person to the emperor in the Shangguan family?"
Duan Yuanxin glanced at the elder and said respectfully: "Elder, even if he is the closest person to the emperor in the Shangguan family, he is not the emperor after all. This Tianhu, no matter when, will always belong to my Duan family!"
This sentence was said decisively, which made many people's faces more or less eased.
Duan Yuanxin glanced at everyone: "I know that a lot of things have happened recently, which made everyone a little disappointed in me. But what I want to say is that for anything, don't just look at the immediate interests, but look at the long-term."
"Since the meeting is over, can it end?" An elder said lightly.
"Don't worry, I still have a few words from the heart, and I can't help but say them!" Duan Yuanxin said.
A group of elders looked up at him.
Duan Yuanxin said: "Why should I do this? I'm here to tell you in the simplest way. Believe it or not, it's up to you. I don't care if you laugh at me in your heart. Anyway, you haven't been laughing at me for a day or two."
Everyone was silent.
Duan Yuanxin said: "Duan Yong is not my son. I can't support someone who is not of my bloodline to take the position."
Everyone was still silent.
This rumor has been circulating on Tianhu Star for many years.
But when Duan Yuanxin said it, everyone was still full of emotion.
After all, it's not so easy for a man to say it.
"He is the son of the Grand Elder."
"Back then, the Grand Elder gave me a pregnant woman. To be honest, you all know that he hoped that the woman's child could become the future head of the family."
"Of course, I also took advantage of it, and that advantage is the position of the head of the family."
Duan Yuanxin was silent for a while, and laughed at himself: "In order to become the head of the family, I accepted it."
"But I want to ask everyone here, how have I been as the head of the family over the years?"
"I don't need you to answer me now, but everyone has a scale in their hearts. Even if there is no right or wrong in the adult world, there is always a basic understanding, right?"
"I think I'm doing well!"
"In this position, I have brought too many things to the Duan family that have never been seen before. 's benefits. "
"So I hope to pass this position to a child as good as me, is that okay?"
"There are rumors outside, saying how my sister and I are... hehe, it's just nonsense!"
Duan Yuanxin suddenly became a little excited, and he said with a grim face: "That's the child my mother picked up from outside! She has no blood relationship with my Duan family! How simple is this question? With modern technology, is it difficult to know the truth?"
"So don't follow the crowd, don't choose to believe what you want to believe!"
"It won't be long before I will show you this verification process in the sun... in front of all of you!"
In the hall, Duan Yuanxin's suppressed angry roar echoed.
"I used all means to become the head of the family. I feel sorry for their mothers, but I can pat my chest and say that I have never touched the woman of the elder in the past thirty years! And I have always treated her with respect! I have always respected her! That child was promoted by the supreme elder when he was born and was named the prince of Tianhu! All these years, I still haven't touched him!"
"Not for anything else, just because I need to accumulate strength!"
"If I want to do it, I will do it to the end!"
"Today I will put my words here publicly. Every word I say is sincere!"
"I just can't accept it!"
"I am not a good person, but I have never cheated the Duan family!"
"The 30% of the shares given to the Shangguan family will fall on the two children Shangguan Wenping and Shangguan Wenqing!"
"You only saw this agreement!"
"Those two children are my sons!"
"Like me, the head of the Shangguan family, my best Friends ... In order to help me, to protect my woman, he married her as a wife ... I have not entered her room for a while! "" You can laugh at me and laugh at him, but this is the sacrifice we made for the future! " I had a loss, but this loss, I personally come to fill it out! "" Duan Yong, he is too old, too old, and I have been killed by me! " How to choose, look at you. "After saying" Duan Yuan, "" "After saying", "" "After saying", "" "" After saying "," "" "After saying", "" "After speaking, I watched the people who came down, smiled coldly, and turned to walk. At this moment, someone hurried in from the outside and came to Duan Yuanxin with a low whisper. This person was obviously anxious, and sent a message to Duan Yuanxin. Duan Yuanxin was giving an impassioned speech, and he didn't care when he heard the prompt, so he had to come in and talk in person.
The realms of these people present were not low. Once they wanted to prick up their ears to listen to something, no one could stop them.
They heard that person say in Duan Yuanxin's ear: "Something happened to the wife."
Duan Yuanxin's face suddenly changed, and he ignored the group of people in the elders' council and walked out in big strides.
When he came to the door, someone opened the door completely, and the warm sunlight shone in.
Like a sword piercing the darkness, it extended to the vicinity of the round table where they were meeting.
A group of elders squinted their eyes and looked out. Duan Yuanxin's figure, bathed in the sunlight, seemed to be covered with a divine light.
But——
Something happened to his wife?
Hehe.
Duan Yuanxin came outside, his face gloomy, and asked the person next to him: "What happened?"
"There seemed to be a fierce fight at the lady's place, and then a car from the mansion left. When I went there, all the servants in the backyard were gone... Oh, by the way, I checked the surveillance, and all the images in it had been replaced with pre-recorded images two days ago."
The person next to him stated the facts as objectively as possible, without adding any personal emotions.
But Duan Yuanxin still heard something unusual. He walked quickly, opened the car door himself and got in the car without asking anyone to open it. He said in a deep voice: "Has she been replaced two days ago?"
"Yes."
At this time, Duan Yuanxin still didn't believe that the trusted subordinates he personally selected would betray him, so he squinted his eyes and said: "Madam... She is a weak woman who is being watched all the time, so it is naturally impossible for her to do anything. So, it is very likely that they had sneaked in there two days ago, and then took action today... kidnapped Madam..."
The man next to him frowned slightly and said hesitantly: "Not likely."
"Anything else?" Duan Yuanxin glanced at this trusted subordinate with some dissatisfaction.
The man said, "I just got a message on the way here. It said that the city guards had a message that someone left the city with a second-level family head token. It was a young and beautiful girl. I asked them to send me the picture at that time. I should have received it soon..."
The man explained as he spoke, "After I found out about this, I didn't stop at all and rushed here immediately..."
He said, picking up the communicator. At this time, the city guards just sent the picture over.
In the picture, Lily, a maid wearing sunglasses, threw the token with a cold face.
Duan Yuanxin only took a look and showed an incredible look in his eyes: "Lily?"
The confidant beside him also exclaimed. Obviously, he also knew Lily.
"How could it be him?" Duan Yuanxin obviously couldn't understand.
The people around the lady were all orphans he adopted from all over Tianhu Star, and then he cultivated them with all his heart through various resources, including Tianhu Enlightenment.
They are really orphans, not the kind of children who were snatched away from their parents.
So Duan Yuanxin always felt that anyone in this world could betray him, even the woman he loved deeply might betray him, but these children would never betray him as their father!
Because he was really good to those people!
He really treated those children as his own children and spent a lot of effort to train them.
And he never let them perform any particularly dangerous tasks.
For so many years, there has been zero death among the children he adopted!
With his status and position, and being so good to them, as long as they stay by his side, they don’t even need to work hard, and their starting point is already ridiculously high. For countless successful people in the eyes of others, their starting point is the end point of those people’s lifelong struggle!
So, what reason do these children have to betray him?
It doesn’t make sense at all!
But this picture, and the words Lily said later, don’t sound like something a person who was held hostage said!
So, why?
Duan Yuanxin still can’t believe it.
But his face had become extremely gloomy.
He whispered: "Send messages to all the states immediately, pass the photos and information of these people to each of our people, and once this group of people is found, immediately... kill... forget it, immediately bring them all back to me! In addition, you must explain it well, be careful not to hurt the wife!"
The confidant beside him nodded seriously, but he was sighing in his heart, that is obviously the woman of the Supreme Elder! Why do you do this...?
However, he agreed that the wife must be brought back.
Because no matter what, the wife must not be allowed to escape to Duan Yong.
"In addition, I want to know what happened in the back house at that time?" Duan Yuanxin asked in a cold voice.
At this time, his communicator suddenly rang.
Duan Yuanxin took a look and was slightly startled.
At this time, the flying car had arrived at the garden of the back house.
Duan Yuanxin took a look at the scene that had been cleaned by the robot and connected the communicator casually.
A low female voice sounded afterwards.
"Where's Wen Ping?"
Duan Yuanxin frowned and said in a deep voice: "Didn't I tell you not to contact me at this time?"
"I ask you, where is Wen Ping!" The deep female voice raised the volume a little, but it still sounded very restrained.
"He is in Tianhu Holy Land!" Duan Yuanxin said: "But Duan Yong came out..."
"Duan Yong came out, but Wen Ping didn't come out, you are not anxious? You tell me he is still in Tianhu Holy Land?" The voice over there was on the verge of breaking out.
"No, did you do something secretly behind my back?" Duan Yuanxin thought of a possibility and asked.
He looked at the garden cleaned by the robot in a daze, his eyes seemed to have lost focus, and urged: "Answer me!"
There was silence for a long time, and then whispered: "I, I just want him to kill that evil seed with his own hands! This is a ritual! Brother, this means that the humiliation we have suffered for so many years, from that moment on..."
"You are fucking confused!" Duan Yuanxin was furious on the spot.
The whole person was like an angry lion, roaring angrily: "What did I tell you before? Didn't I tell you to tell our children that after entering, don't do anything, just stay in Tianhu and practice with peace of mind! He is also guarded by the god-level masters of the Shangguan family. The people who killed Duan Yong were the guards around him! I have already arranged things! Why didn't you listen?"
The attitude of the other side to ask for punishment instantly shrank at this moment, and the voice became a little panicked: "Wen Ping, will Wen Ping be in trouble?"
"Brother, tell me, Wen Ping must be still there, right?"
"He will be fine...right?"
Duan Yuanxin sighed to the sky, then shook his head with a painful face: "I don't know, I don't know, I can't get any news from Tianhu now!"
"Then hurry up, send someone to find him quickly, Wen Ping can't be in trouble, he can't be in trouble, brother, you promised me..." The woman over there was completely panicked.
There was a crying tone in her voice, and then she couldn't help sobbing.
She is a ruthless person and a very powerful person, but this matter concerns her son. Even the calmest person would find it difficult to calm down in this situation.
"I know, I will send someone to Tianhu immediately. Don't worry, I will definitely find him back..." Duan Yuanxin said, without listening to what the woman said, and hung up the communicator.
Then, suddenly, as if all his strength was drained, he sat down on a stone by the roadside, looked up at his confidant who was also worried.
"Duan Yong killed all the ambushes we set at the door, not one was left?"
He asked.
The confidant nodded: "I have sent someone to check. According to the feedback from there, those people died miserably... You'd better not watch it."
"How miserable is it? Tell me about it." Duan Yuanxin said expressionlessly.
"It is said that it seems that they were violently torn apart, and everyone was torn into pieces." The confidant sighed.
Duan Yuanxin squinted his eyes and was suddenly stunned. There was a deep fear in his eyes.
"Are you okay?" The confidant asked with concern.
"Send me those photos now, immediately, right away!" Duan Yuanxin grabbed the confidant's wrist.
The confidant felt that his wrist bones were about to be broken, and he couldn't help but screamed in pain.
Duan Yuanxin subconsciously let go and said, "Quick!"
The confidant didn't dare to rub his wrist, so he could only search quickly.
Duan Yuanxin murmured, "That idiot woman actually asked Wen Ping to assassinate Duan Yong personally. All my people failed. If Wen Ping really did that, then..."
He couldn't say anything more.
Shangguan Wenping... No, Duan Wenping, that's his biological son!
What he feared most now was that his guess would come true.
Duan Yong was indeed a genius, there was no doubt about that.
The resources he had obtained since he was a child were also the best in the entire Tianhu Star.
No one else.
No one could compare!
But no matter how powerful he was, even if his true realm was already a master, so what?
The group of guards around Duan Yong were all his people!
So, in Duan Yuanxin's opinion, Duan Yong could not possibly walk out of Tianhu Holy Land alive.
When all kinds of news broke out in the past two days, he even thought that it was Duan Yong's men who were making trouble!
But in the end, he got a photo of Duan Yong after he came out, and a photo of the guards corps that suddenly appeared around Duan Yong, and he saw them all.
He always felt that those people were just Duan Yong's men who had been secretly recruiting all these years, a group of rabble.
It was not until the news of the failure came from the entrance of Tianhu Holy Land that Duan Yuanxin was really shocked.
If all this is true, then no matter how reluctant he is to admit it, no matter how painful it is, he must admit one thing - his real son Duan Wenping is in danger!
At this time, the confidant around him has sent the photo to Duan Yuanxin.
Duan Yuanxin took a look, and his eyes suddenly turned black, and he almost fainted. The confidant hurriedly supported him: "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, let's go, send a message to all the elders immediately, convene an elders meeting, and say... the time of life and death of the family has come! Let them prepare to wake up the ancestors who are in seclusion. In addition, send a message to all states and prefectures. Once the trace of the lady is found, immediately catch them at all costs... Try not to hurt the lady!"
The confidant was shocked, thinking that why did he change his mind in such a short time?
Didn't he just say that the lady must not be hurt?
Although he has been with Duan Yuanxin for many years and has a lot of experience, he really can't figure this out.
The elders of the Duan family couldn't understand why the head of the family had just left for a while and they were going to convene another elders' meeting.
What's this for?
Are they making fun of us?
Even if we compromise temporarily, it doesn't mean that we are afraid of you, Duan Yuanxin, right?
You are the least capable one among the legitimate sons, otherwise the Grand Elder would support you?
Killing the Grand Elder and still being complacent, without any guilt, showing shamelessness to the fullest... Such a cold-hearted person will be punished sooner or later!
But no matter how they complained in their hearts, the elders still came to the hall as scheduled.
There were no bodies of the second and ninth elders at the conference table, as they had been cleaned up long ago.
There was not even a trace of blood.
Duan Yuanxin strode in, and before the other elders could speak, he waved his hand and a huge light curtain appeared in the air.
The light curtain was full of broken limbs and fragments, which made people feel deeply uncomfortable.
Some elders who hadn't fought for years even retched on the spot.
One of the old women couldn't help but cursed: "Duan Yuanxin, that's enough! Are you using this to disgust and threaten us? You've got what you want! Now the entire Duan family is in your hands, what else do you want?"
Duan Yuanxin didn't argue with her and said in a deep voice: "Has anyone seen the state of those who died in the Holy Land restricted area?"
At this time, one of the elders raised his head and looked at Duan Yuanxin: "I have seen it, why is the head of the family asking this?"
Duan Yuanxin pointed at the light curtain with his hand: "Does it look like it?"
"What do you mean by look like it? Isn't this it? Torn into pieces by violence, and then the essence and blood were sucked away... leaving some miscellaneous blood... Hmm? Where did the head of the family get this photo? Why does this place look like..."
No one wanted to take a second look at the bloody photo.
So at first no one noticed the place where the photo was taken.
However, after this reminder, many people were stunned, and their eyes looking at the photo became solemn.
Duan Yuanxin gritted his teeth and said, "I had people set up a large number of magic arrays at the entrance of Tianhu Holy Land. At that time, I thought that as soon as Duan Yong came out, I would activate the magic array to kill him! But now you know that he came out unscathed, and there were suddenly hundreds of masters around him who we had never seen before but whose strength was unfathomable. Then, these photos were taken by our people at the entrance of Tianhu Holy Land." After he finished speaking, he looked at everyone: "Do you understand what this means?" The elder who originally disliked Duan Yuanxin raised his head and said lightly: "What do you want to say? Duan Yong colluded with those beings in the restricted area of the Holy Land?"
Most people dare not say this, but the elder is straightforward and speaks his mind. He looked at Duan Yuanxin and continued to ask: "In the restricted area of the Holy Land, our Duan family has been exploring for countless years and has already figured out everything in it. The transcendent existence in it is impossible to come out! So, although these photos look like it, whether they are true or not is still debatable. "
Duan Yuanxin frowned, but did not refute it, because this is indeed a guess, but the photo is too similar to the death of some people in the restricted area of the Holy Land before!
Not everyone who entered the restricted area died. In the initial period, usually a group of people rushed into the restricted area, and then some people were torn to pieces by those skinny people sticking out of the grave.
So this scene may be unfamiliar to outsiders, but it is not strange to the Duan family.
Seeing that Duan Yuanxin did not refute, the elder softened his tone a little and said in a deep voice: "But this matter is indeed a bit strange. I will ask Yong boy now, ask him what is going on, and let him give an explanation!"
"Elder, are you confused? Even if it is true, can he admit it?" Another elder said with a wry smile.
The elder said angrily: "I watched him grow up! He is a man, dare to do and dare to take responsibility! Why dare not admit it?"
Until now, the entire Duan family, including Duan Yuanxin, still dare not believe that Duan Yong, who is well known to everyone, came out of the belly of the woman who was stuffed into Duan Yuanxin by the Supreme Elder, and grew up little by little, actually has an ancient soul from countless years ago hidden in his body!
People still know about taking over the body, but when it comes to this kind of direct soul reincarnation into the mother's body, after being nurtured and born as a baby... This is too terrifying!
No one believes it.
The elder is a quick-tempered person who acts decisively. While talking here, he directly opened the communicator and contacted Duan Yong.
"He won't answer."
"Alas, how could he answer now?"
"Yeah..."
A group of elders were whispering.
Just then, the communicator was connected.
Duan Yong's familiar voice came from inside-Great Elder, why did you contact me?
Still very respectful, still very polite.
The Great Elder couldn't help but sigh.
Even if Duan Yong is really the child of the Supreme Elder, he is also the seed of the Duan family!
Since he is the seed of the Duan family, why can't he become the head of the family?
He Duan Yuanxin was not the son of the Duan family back then!
Many elders present, when they heard Duan Yong's voice, all had mixed feelings in their hearts.
Duan Yong...really suitable.
"Yong boy, I want to ask you something, tell me the truth!" The Great Elder looked serious.
"Well, ask, I will definitely tell you the truth." Duan Yong's voice was sincere.
"Let me ask you, what are the origins of those hundreds of guards who suddenly appeared around you? And the entrance to Tianhu Holy Land, your father... ahem, the group of people who ambushed you at the entrance to Tianhu Holy Land, were they killed by the group of people around you?"
Duan Yuanxin's face was dark, thinking to himself, Great Elder, you must have done it on purpose, right?
Duan Yong was silent for a while, then laughed easily: "The group of people who ambushed Duan Yuanxin at the entrance to Tianhu Holy Land were indeed killed by my people."
This sentence made the hall silent!
The Great Elder was also a little dumbfounded.
This kid is really fucking brave!
And he directly called Duan Yuanxin, which clearly showed that he didn't take Duan Yuanxin, his nominal father, seriously at all.
Duan Yuanxin's face was extremely ugly.
At this time, Duan Yong's refreshing voice came from the communicator, "As for the identity of this group of people, I think you have already guessed it?"
Silence!
Death silence!
There was no sound in the empty hall!
Everyone's face was pale.
Even the Great Elder seemed to have forgotten what he should ask at this moment.
Duan Yong's voice still came out from the communicator: "After so many years of hard work, I finally succeeded in communicating and exchanging with some transcendent beings in the burial ground. They are willing to support me and become the head of the Duan family, and..."
On the other side of the communicator, Duan Yong crossed his legs, a cigar in his mouth, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
Yes, your brother Yong is such a man who dares to act and take responsibility!
