From the fake emperor to the concubine

"Second Elder, are you sure?"

Zheng Yi repeated it.

The second elder looked guilty and then found a lot of reasons to explain the matter.

……

"Third Elder, I'm really sorry about this. I didn't want this to happen."

"It's just that the younger generation here really doesn't understand."

The second elder sighed leisurely as he spoke.

The regret on his face was obvious.

Seeing this, Zheng Yi smiled bitterly and said, "If that's the case, then you can return the marriage certificate if you want."

Hearing Zheng Yi's straightforward response, the second elder suddenly raised his head and looked at him in disbelief.

Zheng Yi nodded slowly.

He stretched out his hand and gestured to leave.

The second elder remained silent and had no choice but to leave Zheng Yi's yard.

He knew in his heart that from today onwards.

He and Zheng Yi, the third elder in the family, were about to part ways.

Watching the second elder's figure disappear into the distance.

Wang Manman, who was hiding behind the curtain, then walked out gracefully with a bit of resentment on her face: "She is just a top-grade spiritual root, so what if she is the granddaughter of the Second Elder?

In the family, my husband's status is no worse than theirs."

Wang Manman held Zheng Yi's arm, raised her chin, and looked a little proud.

"it is good."

Zheng Yi smiled and touched Wang Manman's furry little head, "Your husband doesn't care about those things."

“It’s just a top-grade spiritual root.

Without the Foundation Establishment Pill, I don’t believe she can successfully break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.”

Wang Manman looked at Zheng Yi and said seriously, "We must not let the family get away with it like this.

Even if there are still foundation-building materials, it is no longer easy to refine foundation-building pills.

Even if it is refined, it must not be given to anyone from the Second Elder's lineage, understand?"

This was the first time Wang Manman made a request to Zheng Yi.

Zheng Yi smiled and agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I'll listen to you, my wife."

……

In the sphere of influence of the Wang family's old house in Tiannanfang City, the marriage between Wang Miaomiao, the granddaughter of the second elder, and Zheng Yi has been known by the ancestor of the Wang family, Wang Shan, and several elders in the foundation-building stage nearby.

Everyone was originally trying to bring them together.

I was looking forward to their wedding banquet, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this.

The Wang family's ancestor frowned and looked at the great elder.

The Great Elder shook his head helplessly.

It means that he really had nothing to do with this matter.

At this time, Wang Xingyin stood up with a wry smile after learning about this.

He went to find out the situation in advance.

"Ancestor."

Wang Xingyin stepped forward, bowed, and explained the whole story in detail.

After hearing this, the Wang family's ancestor frowned even more tightly.

"The second elder is fine, but you, the first elder, will temporarily take on the position of the head of the Wang family.

Anyway, you are very familiar with family affairs, so you can devote some energy to dealing with these anomalies.

With Wang Xingyin by your side to assist you, the two of you should be enough."

The old ancestor spoke slowly, which was a kind of comfort to Zheng Yi.

"Yes, old man."

The Great Elder smiled slightly and accepted the task on the spot.

"I don't have that much energy to deal with these trivial matters of the family."

The ancestor continued, “Within the family, unless it is related to the survival of the family or matters related to the Third Elder, please do not disturb my retreat.

This time, I will definitely reach the state of perfect foundation building."

Wang Shan spoke in a firm tone.

The great elder and Wang Xingyin in front of them quickly agreed.

After the ancestor's figure disappeared, Wang Xingyin looked at the great elder with complicated eyes.

The elder said directly: "Nephew, don't look at me like that.

I have no interest in the position of patriarch. From now on, all family affairs will fall on you.

You are the young patriarch appointed by the family. Only if you take over the family can the family be injected with more fresh blood and make those young people more willing to sacrifice their lives for the family.

Invest more time and energy.

As for us old guys, we must seize this limited time and practice hard."

The Great Elder's words immediately blocked all the words that Wang Xingyin wanted to say.

Wang Xingyin opened his mouth to speak, but saw that the Great Elder had already gone away.

"I, Wang Xingyin, will remember this favor from the Great Elder."

Wang Xingyin muttered to himself.

Afterwards, Wang Xingyin returned to his side.

Originally he was going to Piaomiao Mountain, but he thought he had to discuss it with Zheng Yi first.

The Great Elder had discussed with him about the medicinal materials before.

He already felt a little sorry for Zheng Yi.

If he were to do this now without even hiding it from Zheng Yi, it would be inappropriate both publicly and privately, and from his position as the young clan leader and Zheng Yi's close friend.

……

“Third Elder, the Second Elder was indeed wrong this time.

Don't worry, Third Elder, the family will give you a fair outcome."

Wang Xingyin sat in front of Zheng Yi with a wry smile on his face. He quickly stated his purpose and expressed his family's sincerity to Zheng Yi.

After hearing this, Zheng Yi smiled and said, "Then I'll leave everything to the young clan leader."

Zheng Yi bowed.

After some greetings, Wang Xingyin said goodbye and left.

It can also be seen from this incident that the third elder of the family, Zheng Yi, probably had some estrangement with the family because of this incident, but this is also the way of the world.

It is inevitable that people's hearts are changeable.

The scene changes.

Wang Xingyin returned to Piaomiao Mountain, accompanied by someone, who was Zheng Yi's teacher, Master Zhang.

Inside the ancestral hall, Master Zhang stood like a towering tower, his fierce gaze fixed on the second elder who walked steadily into the ancestral hall, and his granddaughter Wang Miaomiao who was standing behind him.

Seeing the two figures, Master Zhang snorted coldly: "Wang family, Second Elder, you are going too far.

If it weren’t for the third elder.

I’m afraid that your Second Elder will never be able to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage in this lifetime.

It would be fine if you didn't deliberately repay such a great favor, but you actually repay it with evil.

With you like this, the Wang family may not be able to enjoy this "blessing". "

As soon as Master Zhang opened his mouth he began to criticize harshly.

In the Wang family, others might still stand against Zheng Yi, but Master Zhang is definitely a staunch supporter of Zheng Yi.

After hearing what Master Zhang said, the Second Elder felt upset, but he had no way to defend himself.

at this time.

The order from the family ancestor has been conveyed to Piaomiao Mountain.

The power over family affairs in the hands of the second elder was swept away like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.

Those in the faction below him.

Under the judgment of the Foundation Establishment Ancestor and several other Foundation Establishment Realm masters, they had already scattered like birds and beasts. No one would watch the family's "ship" sinking and still go down this path to the end.

The second elder sighed and sat down with a worried look on his face. "Young Patriarch, we can begin now."

Master Zhang continued.

Wang Xingyin smiled bitterly and raised his right hand.

What he held in his hand was the record of the speech that the ancestor of the Wang family had made in Tiannan Market.

He opened the communication symbol inside.

The next moment, Wang Xingyin held the evidence and spoke loudly.

The voice was as loud as a bell: "The ancestor said that from today on, the position and family status of the second elder of the Wang family will be abolished, and only some related treatment of the foundation-building stage will be retained.

The Second Elder violated the ancestral precepts of our Wang family and was harmful to the family's integrity.

The marriage contract with the Third Elder was annulled. This was her own decision and there was no room for negotiation with the family."

After hearing these words, the second elder of the Wang family was speechless.

In the Wang family, the ancestor’s words are final and others are powerless to resist.

What's more, this matter was indeed an excessive act on their part.

"Second Elder, if you have any objections, I can discuss it with the ancestor after returning to Tiannan Market. Perhaps the ancestor will change his mind."

As the young clan leader, Wang Xingyin looked at the second elder with a bit of concern as a nephew.

The second elder smiled bitterly and shook his head: "In response to the young clan leader's words, I have nothing to say. This is the crime that I should bear."

The second elder accepted the punishment calmly.

Just when everyone thought that today's incident in the ancestral hall had come to an end.

Suddenly, Wang Miaomiao, who had been standing silently behind the Second Elder, turned into a sword shadow, rushed in front of everyone, and cried out in tears: "Why?
It's just an intra-family marriage.

The family had never punished an elder severely for such a thing before.

Isn't it too much for the young patriarch to act like this?"

Wang Miaomiao's eyes were red and she screamed loudly at Wang Xingyin.

To know.

She is just a small Qi Refining practitioner in the family.

She actually dared to offend the senior masters in the cultivation world in this way. If both parties were not from the Wang family, such an act would have caused her to be beheaded and die.

"Miao Miao, stop talking nonsense!"

The second elder frowned and pulled Wang Miaomiao behind him.

But Wang Miaomiao still refused to give in. Even at this point, she still shouted loudly: "Young Patriarch, as a member of the Wang family, I will not accept the punishment today!"

Wang Miaomiao spoke each word clearly, shouting with all her strength, her voice echoing throughout the ancestral hall and the valley.

After the shout, the ancestral hall fell into silence.

Master Zhang folded his arms, standing aside with a gloating look on his face, watching the show before him.

Under the gaze of everyone, Wang Xingyin took a step forward. The spiritual power of the Foundation Establishment Realm surged, and his spiritual sense instantly locked onto Wang Miaomiao behind the Second Elder.

He turned over his right palm.

A magical weapon emitting a mysterious yellow light, under the attraction of spiritual power, the Fire Cloud Sword turned golden all over and instantly hung above Wang Miaomiao's head, as if it could take her life in the next second.

The second elder saw this and could not sit idly by.

He growled, "Young Patriarch, isn't this a bit too much?"

At the same time, the foundation-building spiritual power in the second elder's body surged faintly, and a large amount of spiritual power behind him turned into an air shield, which tightly protected the granddaughter Wang Miaomiao.

Subsequently.

In his hand, there appeared a green long sword with ripples all over it, and he seemed to be in a state of confrontation with the young patriarch Wang Xing in front of him.

Wang Xingyin's face was serious, and he repeated, "Second Elder, don't you know whether it is excessive or not?
Even though there is no precedent for this matter in my Wang family, the words of the ancestor are the heavenly rules for the Wang family.

Besides, Second Elder, aren’t you clear about this?

What does the third elder mean to the Wang family?

If it weren't for the Third Elder, how could our Wang family withstand the joint siege of Qinghe Chariot and the Zhang family of Chiyan Valley?

I'm afraid that the Wang family had already been destroyed by the hands of these two families. The Wang family members who were lucky would become slaves, while those who were unlucky would die on the spot.

In comparison, Second Elder, do you still think this punishment is excessive?"

Young clan leader Wang Xingyin asked loudly over and over again, unleashing all of his initial foundation-building strength without reservation.

Master Zhang also took a step forward.

As a powerful foundation-building expert of the Wang family.

He echoed, "Young Patriarch is right!"

Master Zhang, a powerful Foundation Establishment Realm expert, also took action.

In an instant, the spiritual powers of the two foundation-building realms converged at one place, directly shattering the second elder's foundation-building energy shield.

The mere pressure from a Foundation Establishment Stage expert was enough to make Wang Miaomiao's Qi Refining Stage body feel as if it had been hit hard, and she was blown away by the collapsing air wave with a whoosh.

“You are only in the Qi Refining Stage. If you dare to speak ill of me again next time.

What will be wasted is not only her cultivation, but also her life."

Wang Xingyin withdrew his spiritual power, and his cold eyes swept lightly over the second elder, finally locking onto Wang Miaomiao.

Master Zhang sneered, “This is the rule that the Wang family should follow.

I will go and mediate with the Third Elder. The relationship between the Wang Family, the Third Elder, and the rest of us will not change. As long as the Wang Family can be fair, we will be members of the Wang Family."

In front of the second elder and Wang Xingyin, who is now in charge of clan affairs, two Foundation Establishment Realm powerhouses, Master Zhang spoke on behalf of their attitudes.

"Thank you Master Zhang."

Wang Xingyin bowed slightly in thanks.

Master Zhang pursed his lips and smiled, his figure transformed into a streak of light and fled away in the direction of Tiannan Market.

"Thank you, Young Clan Leader, for showing mercy."

The Second Elder looked like a pile of dead wood at this moment.

After a long time, he bowed deeply to the position of the young clan leader Wang Xingyin in the ancestral hall.

Subsequently.

He picked up the unconscious granddaughter Wang Miaomiao and left the Wang family ancestral hall step by step.

“Second Elder, I hope you don’t do anything stupid, otherwise you’re just forcing me.”

Inside the ancestral hall, the young clan leader Wang Xing closed his eyes.

The spiritual energy in his body at the foundation-building stage was boiling like boiling water, gurgling with many tiny fluctuations.

Simultaneously.

He took out another magic weapon.

This is not an ordinary magic weapon that can be used in the Qi Refining Stage, but a top-grade magic weapon that can usually only be used in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

This is the item that Wang Shan, the foundation-building ancestor of the Wang family, gave to Wang Xingyin before he left.

Enough to deal with a strong man at the initial stage of foundation building.

……

It took Master Zhang several days to get to Tiannan Market.

Zheng Yi was quickly found and the Wang family's punishment measures were briefly described.

"In this matter, the ancestor is still sensible."

Master Zhang said finally.

Zheng Yi sat in front of Master Zhang.

The two were in the study of the alchemy shop.

"I'm afraid that after this incident, the people of the Second Elder's lineage will have some grudges against us."

Zheng Yi said with a helpless smile.

"There's nothing we can do about that."

Master Zhang didn't care much about this, "Even within a family, once factions are formed, there will be estrangement between them.

Not to mention that the people from the Second Elder's lineage hate us, I'm afraid that the people from the First Elder's lineage may have other thoughts as well.
For so many years.

I have seen everything in the Wang family, and I am used to it. "

"When will you break through the foundation-building stage?"

Master Zhang suddenly asked, looking at Zheng Yi meaningfully.

Zheng Yi smiled bitterly.

Master Zhang raised his eyebrows, and seeing Zheng Yi remained silent, he continued, "Could it be that you are still planning to put on airs in front of an old man like me?" (End of this chapter)
