Chapter 449: A Small Resistance, the Eighth Elder's Hope
shuh~~
For a moment, the entire Hyuga clan's meeting hall fell into a brief silence, and then almost everyone's eyes fell on Hyuga Aomatsu.

Those gazes were filled with complex emotions - inquiry, joy, scrutiny, contempt, and even undisguised disgust and contempt.

The inquiring and delighted looks naturally came from the people of the Hyuga branch family.

There was a glimmer of hope in their eyes, as if they saw a ray of light in the darkness.

Hinata Aomatsu's words ignited a long-lost expectation in these people's hearts. They longed for what he said to be true, longed for the "bird in a cage" curse that had bound them for so many years to be lifted, and longed for them to truly break free from the shackles of fate.

And those arrogant and contemptuous looks came from the people of the main family.

They still looked high and mighty, their eyes full of contempt and disdain for those who had separated from the family.

In their eyes, those who separated from the family were nothing more than vassals of the main family, and were destined to be confined like "birds in a cage" for their entire lives.

Even when Hinata Aomatsu stood up and said that he had gotten rid of the 'bird in a cage' curse, they still maintained their arrogance, as if his words were nothing but a meaningless struggle.

"Hehe... Then, tell me, what price did you pay to temporarily free yourself from the shackles of a bird in a cage?" The Great Elder spoke slowly, his voice low and cold.

His expression was calm, as if he had seen through everything.

It is certain that both Hyuga Neji and Hyuga Aomatsu who suddenly appeared in front of him must have paid a huge price in order to temporarily free themselves from the shackles of the "bird in the cage".

And this kind of price is definitely not something that ordinary people can afford.

As soon as the great elder finished speaking, the atmosphere in the meeting hall suddenly became more solemn. Those scrutinizing eyes became sharper, as if they wanted to see through Hinata Qingmo completely.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for Hinata Aomatsu's answer.

Hinata Aomatsu straightened his spine, his eyes firm and confident.

His eyes swept over everyone present, and finally stopped at the face of the Great Elder. His tone was a little disappointed, but full of unquestionable determination: "I modified the 'Lotus Seal' based on the 'Bird in the Cage' curse. This Lotus Seal not only has no side effects, but can even absorb external chakra, warm up your soul and eyes, and strengthen the ability of the Byakugan!"

His voice echoed in the meeting hall, and every word was powerful.

A gleam of hope suddenly ignited in the eyes of the people from the branch family, while the faces of the people from the main family became even gloomier.

"Not only that!" Hinata Qingmo continued, with an excitement that was hard to conceal in his tone, "As everyone knows, the Byakugan of our branch family has always been incomplete due to the restrictions of the 'Bird in a Cage', but after the 'Lotus Curse Seal', the defects of the 'Bird in a Cage' have been completely made up!"

"Our Byakugan can also observe the entire world 360 degrees without blind spots! Not only that, with this 'Lotus Curse Seal', our talent is even higher than that of the Zong family!"

His words were like a bombshell, causing a huge uproar in the meeting hall. The people from the branch family could no longer suppress their excitement, and they gathered around him, asking questions one after another:

"Qingmo, is what you said true? Can we also remove the 'Bird in the Cage' curse?"

"Really? Who helped you change the mark?"

"We are all from the branch family. Tell me who helped you change the curse seal!"

"What method? Tell us quickly!" The eyes of the people who separated the family were full of desire, and their voices were trembling, as if they had grasped the last straw.

Those eyes that were originally immersed in deathly silence and numbness now shone with hope again.

However, at this exciting moment, several painful howls suddenly sounded among the crowd.

Everyone panicked and scattered. Three people from the branch family fell to the ground, holding their heads tightly with their hands, rolling around in pain, and screaming.

The people from the branch family suddenly realized that this was still the main family's territory, and the Hyuga clan was still controlled by those high-ranking elders of the main family.

They asked for the method to release the "bird in the cage" in front of the clan elders, which was undoubtedly a challenge to the clan's authority.

"The lives of you and your family are in the hands of the main family. The 'bird in a cage' is the ancestral system of our Hyuga clan. No one is allowed to mention the matter of getting rid of the 'bird in a cage' again, otherwise, your fate will be the same as those people on the ground!" The voice of the great elder was cold and majestic.

In order to give these people a warning, the Great Elder almost pushed the "Bird in the Cage" to the extreme.

In just a few breaths, the souls of the three people from the branch family were severely damaged. They fell to the ground, twitching continuously, and could no longer stand up.

The remaining people from the branch family fell silent, lowered their heads, and dared not look in the direction of the great elder. Their eyes were filled with fear and helplessness, and the fire of hope that had just ignited was also ruthlessly extinguished at this moment.

"Haha... what a bunch of bullshit ancestral rules! Your so-called ancestral rules are just to protect your own interests, fearing that we will escape your control!" Hyuga Qingmo sneered, with undisguised anger and sarcasm in his voice, "This 'Lotus Curse Seal' can make us stronger, but you are hindering us for your own selfish interests. It's ridiculous! You are the parasites of the Hyuga clan!"

His words were like a sharp sword piercing into the hearts of the clan members. The faces of the clan elders suddenly turned ashen, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in their eyes.

The Great Elder snorted coldly: "Do you know what you are talking about? Do you know what will happen if you challenge the authority of the clan?"

"Of course I know. Aren't you going to kill me?" Hyuga Qingmo looked at the Great Elder fearlessly, with determination in his eyes: "But even so, I will bring you down. You parasites are no longer worthy of being the leaders of the Hyuga clan. If you lead the Hyuga clan to decline sooner or later!"

"If that's the case, it's better to overthrow it sooner!"

Originally, Hinata Aomatsu just wanted to take his family away and leave the sad place of the Hyuga clan, but when he saw what the Hyuga main family did, he became completely furious!

hateful!

If he doesn't resist, the other members of the tribe will have no hope at all!

As a member of a branch family, he also needs to be passionate: "In this case, I, Hyuga Aomatsu, will tear apart this hypocritical Hyuga clan!"

"Hinata Aomatsu!"

The Eighth Elder who was confronting Neji also reacted at this time, and looked back when he heard the familiar name!

immediately,

He recognized that this was the follower he sent with Hyuga Nagakuri to hunt down Neji, but not only was he back now, he was also branded with the Lotus Mark!
Now that he is back, what about his son Hinata Nagakuri?
As soon as he thought of it, the Eighth Elder appeared in front of Hinata Qingmo and looked into his eyes: "Where is Changliu?"
