The backhand took down Mo Feng, but this was just a trivial matter in Xiao Chen’s opinion, if not for his father, Xiao Chen was afraid that he would not even look at Mo Feng, because he was too low grade.

He returned home directly. After a quarter of an hour, Elder Wu who had dealt with Mo Feng appeared in front of Xiao Chen. Upon seeing this, Xiao Chen asked indifferently, “Senior Brother Qin Heng where are they?”

With the previous transmission, Xiao Chen also contacted Qin Heng and asked him to bring 50,000 strong people from East Yang City to rush to Ling Shan County City.

To mobilize 50,000 troops, if this were other people, it would definitely be impossible to do without the nod of the sovereign, but Xiao Chen was different, with his own identity, the Heavenly Dan sovereign and the Wooden Heaven sovereign would obviously not refuse, plus now that the general situation of the East Yang domain had been settled, these 50,000 troops did not have any tasks on their hands, so it was natural to give Xiao Chen this face.

Hearing Xiao Chen’s question, Elder Wu replied, “It will arrive early tomorrow morning.”

“En, tell senior brother Qin Heng, tomorrow the army does not need to enter the city, just select three thousand elites to enter the city, others directly give me outside the city to surround the 30,000 Xiao family troops, who dares to resist will be executed on the spot.” Xiao Chen said in a light voice

“Yes.” Elder Wu respectfully replied, and then he withdrew from the room.

The next morning, the entire Xiao family was bustling with activity, because today was the day of the whole clan meeting, the meeting had not yet started, but all the Xiao family members had already guessed the content of the meeting.

Time passed slowly, one by one, the first line relatives of the Xiao family who had reached the age of eighteen came outside the main hall of the Xiao family, and soon, the originally large main hall of the Xiao family had gathered hundreds of first line relatives of the Xiao family, and in the end, Xiao Mu and Xiao Feng and the two of them appeared together, and then only Xiao Qing was waiting for one person.

It did not take long to wait, Xiao Qing also entered the main hall accompanied by the five elders, so that the whole clan meeting officially began.

I don’t know if it’s because of the victory, or because it’s too confident, once up, not even a word of courtesy, Xiao Feng said straight away.

“Everyone, the sole purpose of holding this family meeting this time is to reconsider the appointment and removal of the Patriarch. I think Xiao Qing is not suitable to become Patriarch. What do you think?”

Hearing Xiao Feng’s words, a look of disappointment flashed in the eyes of Xiao Qing, who was sitting on the main seat, this is his own brother, so he can’t wait to pull himself down?

With a silent sigh, at the same time, the great elder sitting on Xiao Qing’s left hand immediately shouted angrily, “Xiao Feng, you shut up.”

The Grand Elder had an angry look on his face.

The five of them were firmly on Xiao Qing’s side, and at the same time, the five of them also understood that Xiao Feng was digging his own grave by doing this, how could he possibly fight Xiao Chen?

Facing the grand elder’s scolding, Xiao Feng smiled coldly, “Grand elder, this whole clan conference is not a one-word meeting of someone. It is normal for me to have such a proposal, and the ancestors have said that the whole clan conference can appoint and dismiss the patriarch. There should be no problem with me? Or do you mean that the elder wants to violate the ancestral precepts?”

The matter has come to this point, Xiao Feng is obviously also directly to tear the skin, the next is the crowd began some without the slightest nutrition of the argument, in the end, still Xiao Feng proposed, directly began to vote, the first decision is the appointment and removal of the family head of Xiao Qing.

“Whoever feels that Xiao Qing is not suitable to continue to be the head of the family, please raise your hand.” Xiao Feng was the first to raise his right hand, followed by Xiao Mou and their sons, who also raised their right hands, and at the same time, one after another, more than half of the full-blooded Xiao family clansmen in the hall also raised their arms.

Looking these people actually want to remove Xiao Qing from the position of Patriarch, the elder’s face flushed with anger burning in his eyes, and finally pointed at the crowd and said weakly, “It’s just stupid. Stupid……….”

These tribesmen have obviously been bought by Xiao Feng and Xiao Mu. Regarding their choice, the great elder can only use stupidity to describe their choice.

The majority of the people chose to remove Xiao Qing from the position of family head, Xiao Feng and Xiao Mu two people are also greatly settled, just when Xiao Feng was ready to announce the results, a calm voice came from outside the hall, “the whole clan meeting is still missing my vote, right?”

Along with the voice, the crowd only saw a white-clothed Xiao Chen slowly walked in.

Seeing Xiao Chen, Xiao Feng frowned slightly, but once he thought that the result was now decided, Xiao Feng quickly sneered and said, “Xiao Chen, it’s too late for you to come now, can’t you see that the situation is already fallen?”

“Idiot.” Hearing Xiao Feng’s words, Xiao Chen said in a cold voice, then also ignored him and came directly to the centre of the hall, sweeping his gaze from the many clansmen one by one.

Looking at these clansmen who have been bought and drawn by Xiao Feng and them, what Xiao Chen has in his eyes is only pity, as the Grand Elder said, these guys are really just stupid ah.

Although I do not know what benefits Xiao Feng Xiao curtain gave them, but their choice, Xiao Chen can only be described as stupid, and still stupid to the extreme.

“You all want to remove my father from the position of family head?” Looking at the crowd, Xiao Chen said indifferently.

“Chen, your father’s character is indeed not suitable to be the family head, we are also thinking for the sake of the family.” Hearing Xiao Chen’s words, a beloved member of Xiao Mu, who was also Xiao Chen’s elder, said in a pretentious manner at this moment, with that expression, as if he was really thinking about the family.

It was extremely hypocritical, but Xiao Chen was not angry. It didn’t make any sense to be angry with these idiots. With a slight smile, Xiao Chen went on to say, “What about you, what do you mean? Are they all determined to dismiss my father?”

Continue to ask those who did not speak, however, in the face of Xiao Chen’s question, each of these people chose to be silent, only, although no one answered Xiao Chen’s question, but their arms raised high still did not put down, it is clear that they still choose to stand on the side of Xiao Feng.

Seeing this, Xiao Chen smiled and said in a still calm tone.

“Good, since this is the case, then my father’s lineage and I will withdraw from the Xiao family, let whoever you guys like to make the family head be.”

Xiao Chen chose to withdraw from the Xiao family of his own accord, hearing these words, Xiao Mu and Xiao Feng and those who supported them, were first stunned, but soon were secretly elated.

No one had expected that Xiao Chen would actually choose to withdraw from the Xiao family on his own initiative, and also the entire lineage, so that there would be no more obstacles to the position of family head, and Xiao Feng and Xiao Mo could sit smoothly on the position of the head of the Xiao family.

I didn’t expect things to go so smoothly, and Xiao Chen would actually talk so well, but compared to the people’s delight, the Grand Elder on top of the high seat immediately spoke, “Chen, don’t fool around.”
