Dragon Clan: Started by being picked up by Xia Mi, and then defeated the strong

Chapter 182: Pass it on, the head of the family and the young master are having fun and can't get out of bed
In the morning, in the mountains outside Tokyo, heavy rain hit the roof of the shrine. The raindrops falling from the eaves drew beautiful parabolas, and the century-old cherry trees in the garden were covered with sad and beautiful cherry blossoms.

This is a very classical shrine, but it has been carefully renovated and does not feel run-down at all.

The only thing that had not been repaired was the burnt Torii gate, and the vermilion stone wall, which still retained its original appearance. No one was even hired to clean it. Large patches of dried blood on the stone wall had seeped into the cracks in the stone.

The floor of the main hall is covered with tatami, and there are no shrines or Buddha statues. The inner walls are surrounded by Ukiyo-e, which are carefully and skillfully painted with vivid brushstrokes. They depict a war between demons, gods and ghosts, with clouds bursting out and flames flying. The eyes of the ghosts are shining in the candlelight, and they are actually painted with phosphorus pigments.

Hundreds of men and women in black knelt in their respective positions. They all knew their position in this huge organization, and no one knelt in the wrong position.

The eight Sheqi families rarely hold meetings at the family shrine, but every meeting is undoubtedly a moment that determines the fate of the family.

The participants were all people with certain status in the Sheqi Eight Families, and the departments involved included:
Strategy Department;
Liaison Department;
The Japanese branch of Kassel Academy has the Kanto branch;
Kansai Branch;

Rock Flow Research Institute;

Maruyama Construction;

A total of four hundred and twenty-one people.

A white projection screen is hung in front of the scroll of gods and demons in the main hall, and in front of the screen are eight small tables with different long swords on them.

This was the famous sword that Xia Mo saw when she first met the family heads. It represented their status, and the family crest was painted in gold on the handle.

They are the sixteen-petal chrysanthemum of the Tachibana family, the gentian of the Minamoto family, the bamboo and sparrow of the Uesugi family, the red demon of the Inuyama family, the spider of the Fuma family, the horse head of the Ryoma family, the phoenix of the Sakurai family and the Yasha of the Miyamoto family.

The heads of the eight families will attend this family gathering.

However, the position of the patriarch of the Tachibana family, who initiated this crucial meeting, was vacant, and so was the position of the head of the Minamoto family next to him.

There is someone in the position of the head of the Uesugi family, but why is it a girl with long gray hair? Shouldn't the hair color of the head of the Uesugi family be dark red?

Xia Mo sat in the seat of the head of the Uesugi family, looking calm and composed, while the head of the Sakurai family next to her had a stern face.

Before entering the shrine, Sakurai Nanami was not surprised to see Xia Mo, because she knew that Xia Mo also had the qualifications to attend.

Then, Sakurai Nanami saw Xia Mo sitting in the seat of the head of the Uesugi family openly... Was she bullying the head of the Uesugi family because he couldn't speak?

Oh, such an important meeting, but the head of the Uesugi family didn’t come at all!
Xia Mo whispered to Sakurai Nanami, "I played with Eri until very late yesterday, and Eri asked me to clock in for her."

Nanami Sakurai: …

It would be fine if the head of the Uesugi family didn’t come, but what’s going on between Mr. Masamune and the young master?
Could it be that the two of them also played too late and haven't gotten up yet? Sakurai Nanami's thoughts wandered.

The two old men, the head of the Fuma family and the head of the Inuyama family, frowned secretly. It was impossible for the head of the family to be absent without reason. They wanted to send someone to invite him, but Tachibana Masamune had disappeared for more than 24 hours, and they could go to the police station to report the case.

Yes, since Xia Mo and Minamoto Chisei returned from Kadori Town, Tachibana Masamune has not shown up until today.

The family members were talking among themselves, thinking that the patriarch had been assassinated by the fierce ghosts. When they asked other family heads, their answers were refuted, but they did not explain where the patriarch had gone.

Because they didn't know either, when they asked Yuan Zhisheng, they found out that the patriarch was fine and would attend the family meeting.

Now that the patriarch and the head of the Yuan family are not here, the family meeting cannot be held normally.

In fact, in addition to these two big figures, there were more than a dozen family members who did not attend on time. Smart people suspected that they were related to this matter.

Xia Mo sat in the position of the head of the Uesugi family. She had a handwritten letter from the head of the Uesugi family, plus her status as an emperor, so she was not driven down.

Xia Mo thought that Yuan Zhisheng was a little slow in his work, so she cleared her throat and wondered whether she should stand up and say a few words.

To be honest, she has a certain understanding of stand-up comedy.

At this time, the door of the hall was pushed open, a gust of cold wind rushed in, and Yuan Zhisheng, wearing a long black windbreaker, walked in, followed by Yasha and Crow. The two held a plate, and the thing on the plate was covered with a white cloth, which looked like a ball, but the white cloth was seeping with blood red, like a seductive flower.

Yuan Zhisheng had a murderous aura about him. He glanced around, and those family members with mediocre bloodlines were all shocked.

"Sorry, I'm late." Yuan Zhisheng said.

After that, Yuan Zhisheng walked quickly to his seat, and Ying, who was kneeling in the ordinary seat, stood up and came to Yuan Zhisheng's side. She took off Yuan Zhisheng's wet windbreaker, put on a black haori, and then bowed and left.

Yaksha and Crow stood in the center of the hall, with their backs straight and serious expressions, but they were actually very panicked inside.

At the same time, Tachibana Masamune slowly walked out from the worship hall behind the main hall, his silver hair combed meticulously.

After the patriarch appeared, everyone stood up and bowed slightly to him, and Tachibana Masamune bowed back.

After everyone was seated, Fuma Kotaro, the second in command of the Snake Eight Clan, couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Masamune, what's going on?"

The battle-hardened Fuma Kotaro recognized what was on the plate at a glance. It was a human head. The cold wind stirred the air flow in the hall, emitting a faint smell of blood.

Tachibana Masamune answered calmly.

"This is a traitor to the family."

The white curtain behind him suddenly lit up, and everyone was shocked when they saw what was on it.

This is a serious intelligence leak.

Everyone thought of the traitor the patriarch mentioned, and combined with the theme of this meeting, they immediately understood what the patriarch meant.

In ancient times, there was a custom of sacrificing living people as sacrifices before going to the battle. Tachibana Masamune wanted to sacrifice the heads of traitors, and his determination to eliminate the fierce demons was self-evident.

Although the white cloth was not lifted, everyone knew that whoever did not come was a traitor.

Eri: ? ?
Helgezuo thought that Tachibana Masamune was dead, and the spies planted in the eight families of Sheqi would definitely take action.

According to the list of personnel provided by Tachibana Masamune, Yuan Zhisheng spent most of yesterday's day catching traitors. The law enforcement officers were secretly dispatched, and they were not only good at dealing with Deadpool, but the civil war was even more like a phantom god.

Today, Yuan Zhisheng brought the heads of the last two people to the main hall to scare the villains.

Next, Tachibana Masamune began his speech, starting with the traitor.

The eight families of Sheqi have been corrupted by the Menggui Clan and have infiltrated from top to bottom. Every traitor that Minamoto Chisei has dealt with was at the level of a section chief. As for the lower-level spies, Tachibana Masamune didn't even know about it. They were arranged by the Menggui Clan, so the traitors of the eight families of Sheqi are still there.

Projected on the white projection screen were the intelligence materials stolen by the traitors, which were undoubtedly a blatant attack on the faces of Sheqi Bajia.

Tachibana Masamune mentioned again the provocation of the king general. The white screen showed the development of the Demon Clan over the years. Overall, the strength of the Demon Clan was beyond many people's expectations.

If the territory of the Japanese mixed-race world is divided into ten parts, the fierce ghosts already occupy thirty percent. They are like a hyena, capable of biting a lion to death at the right time.

If this trend continues, the consequences will be disastrous.

The old man said majestically, "The fierce ghosts are the shadows of the eight families of Sheqi. It's like fate, and they have been entangled for thousands of years."

“But for the sake of the next generation, we must break the cage of fate!
