I have an all-knowing mirror

Chapter 170 Stirring Up the Storm
"understood."

Tega Red Cloud nodded.

Then, following Su Yuan's instructions...

The evidence of Teng Xing Chi Yun's collusion with alien races was sent to the relevant departments of the Empire.

Although he felt reluctant, Tega Chiyun knew in his heart that Su Yuan was right.

If I want to become the patriarch of the Chiyun family, the first thing I need to deal with is Teng Xing Chiyun, the first in line to become the patriarch.

If we don't resolve this, are we just going to wait for Teng Xing Chi Yun to voluntarily hand over the position of clan leader to him?

Su Yuan glanced at Tega Red Cloud and was quite satisfied.

The reason for choosing to support the other party in the position of the Chiyun family is because he is obedient and will not disobey Su Yuan's orders.

This is also the greatest advantage of Tega Akame.

"Mr. Ming, and then what?"

After sending out all the evidence, Tega Chiyun looked at Su Yuan and asked cautiously.

The Chiyun family has six heirs. Tengxing Chiyun is the first heir, and there are also the second, third, and so on up to the sixth heir.

Defeating Teng Xing Chi Yun does not make Te Jia Chi Yun the patriarch of the Chi Yun family; there are still five successors.

As for Tega Akane? He is not even qualified to be listed as a successor at present.

"And then? Just wait quietly."

A smile appeared on Su Yuan's face.

Next, the Chiyun family will be shaken up. The first in line to inherit the throne, Teng Xing Chiyun, has colluded with alien races and has been exposed to the empire, although it has nothing to do with the Chiyun family.

However, it will have a significant impact on the situation within the family.

As the first in line to succeed the clan leader, and almost a certainty for the future clan leader, Teng Xing Chiyun has too many factions behind him. Now that he has fallen, the clan will undergo a major reshuffle.

Especially the attitude of the current patriarch of the Chiyun family.

"Okay, Mr. Ming."

Tega Chiyun couldn't figure out what he was waiting for. Even if he dealt with Teng Xing Chiyun, he still saw no hope for the position of clan leader. There were so many successors ahead of him, and even if he waited until he died, it would never be his turn.

But since Mr. Ming has said so, Tega Akane doesn't intend to think about it any further.

Shortly after.

Several stellar beings from the Enforcement Department of the Human Empire of the Canglan Universe descended upon the Chiyun family, publicly pronounced Tengxing Chiyun's crimes, and then took him away to await trial by the Imperial Court.

This incident caused a huge uproar in the Chiyun family.

"Teng Xing Chiyun has been taken away by the Imperial Enforcers?"

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. The enforcers are all stellar life forms. The aura they exude is terrifying. Even the elders of the family didn't dare to stop them. Brother Teng Xing was taken away."

"Why exactly did the Imperial Enforcers take Brother Teng Xing away?"

"It is said that Brother Teng Xing colluded with alien races, and the evidence is conclusive, leaving no room for leniency."

"Colluding with alien races? Brother Teng Xing is confused. With his status, what alien races could he be colluding with?"

Countless members of the Chiyun family were discussing it. As the first in line to succeed the clan leader, Teng Xing Chiyun usually received a lot of attention.

The shock caused by him being taken away in public by imperial law enforcement is unimaginable.

It wasn't just the Chiyun family that was discussing it; other families and forces closely related to the Chiyun family also turned their attention to this matter.

When the first in line to the throne encounters trouble, it is a major event for any family and requires careful handling.

Inside a grand hall, Dou Bei Chi Yun, the current patriarch of the Chi Yun family, had a gloomy expression.

He naturally knew immediately that his own son had been taken away by imperial enforcers in public. Moreover, Doubei Chiyun also knew the detailed reasons why Tengxing Chiyun had been taken away.

The empire's law enforcement officers did not arrest people without reason; they had already sent relevant information to Doubei Chiyun before taking action.

"Teng Xing Ni"

Doubei Chiyun sighed inwardly.

In his view, his son's collusion with foreign tribes was not an unforgivable matter, as long as the family's interests were not betrayed.

What Doubei Chiyun couldn't understand was how Tengxing Chiyun could be so careless as to leave irrefutable evidence outside such a secret and crucial matter, making it impossible to stop him.

Little did Dou Bei Chi Yun know that Teng Xing Chi Yun had been extremely careful, showing no mercy to anyone who could be silenced, but unfortunately, he had encountered Su Yuan.

"Who did it?"

Who reported it?

Dou Bei Chi Yun composed himself. Teng Xing Chi Yun was the clan leader he had painstakingly cultivated.

In the Chiyun family, although the patriarch holds absolute power, he still cannot make decisions on the selection of the successor. This is a rule left by the Chiyun family and many other families.

This rule is to ensure the vitality of the family and prevent a single generation from monopolizing power and supporting an incompetent son to become the next family head.

In the Crimson Cloud Clan, the most important factor in becoming the clan leader is one's own ability. Even the clan leader's own son doesn't have much of an advantage in this regard.

Doubei Chiyun paid an unknown price, and Tengxing Chiyun was indeed very talented, which is why he became the first in line to succeed as clan leader.

So it's gone now?

Doubei Chiyun closed his eyes.

Of the five heirs of the Chiyun family, only Teng Xing Chiyun is his son; the other five heirs all come from other main branches of the family.

"It's them?"

Doubei Chiyun opened his eyes, and a light screen appeared in front of him, displaying the names of the next five in line of successors.

Clearly, the irrefutable evidence sent to the Imperial Law Enforcement Department was aimed at completely bringing down Teng Xing Chiyun, the first in line to inherit the family business.

And who would do that?

Enemies of the Chiyun Clan?
No.

If the enemies of the Chiyun family were to obtain such irrefutable evidence, the most advantageous course of action for them would be to wait until Tengxing Chiyun had inherited the position of clan leader before using it to threaten the family.

Reporting it directly to the Empire now would be pointless, offering no benefit other than bringing down Teng Xing Chi Yun. It wouldn't be a serious blow to the Chi Yun family either, as they still have five heirs waiting in the wings.

therefore.

Doubei Chiyun could easily deduce that the person who did this was someone within the family, or even one of the five heirs in line.

Those who seek high profits are suspicious.

The biggest beneficiaries of Teng Xing Chi Yun's downfall were these five heirs, as they now had the hope of becoming clan leaders.

"The elders have gone too far."

Dou Bei Chi Yun's gaze was cold, and he easily focused his attention on the elders of the family.

Behind the five successors, there were naturally some elders.

These elders come from different branches of the family. If one of their descendants is able to succeed as the clan leader, it would be of great benefit to that branch.

"Do you think you'll succeed?"

Doubei Chiyun gave a mocking smile. As the clan leader, he could not interfere too much with the successor's affairs, but he had the ability to start over.

This means canceling the inheritance rights of all heirs and selecting six new heirs in order of priority.

Virtual world network, personal space.

Su Yuan sat there calmly, while Tega Chiyun sat beside him, his face full of amazement.

"Mr. Ming, I have actually become the clan chief's successor, and the second in line to succeed him!" Tega Chiyun felt like he was dreaming.

Not long after Teng Xing Chiyun was taken away, the family's senior members held an emergency meeting. At the meeting, the patriarch Dou Bei Chiyun was furious, while the elders were somewhat guilty.

Especially the elders behind the five heirs, although they hadn't actually reported Teng Xing Chiyun—not because they were unwilling, but because they lacked evidence—they were indeed the biggest beneficiaries of this incident, and even these elders were beginning to suspect that the other side was behind it.

It was precisely because of this guilty conscience that the elders did not oppose the enraged Doubei Chiyun and the decision to disqualify all candidates and select a new successor.

The final selection resulted in Tega Akane being chosen as the second in line to succeed the emperor, while the other five in line to succeed him came from other main branches.

The reason why Tega Red Cloud was able to be promoted is because he had performed well within the family over the past period, achieved excellent results in the assessment, and made decisions that were in line with the family's interests when dealing with alien stellar life.

A number of actions and factors made Tega Chiyun stand out among the clan chief's many sons.

In addition to the matter of Teng Xing Chi Yun, the clan leader's suspicious gaze was no longer limited to the original five heirs.

His other sons were also suspected.

That's why Tega Akane became one of the six candidates for clan chief.

In Doubei Chiyun's opinion, Tega Chiyun should be the least related to this matter.

After all, he was the youngest, and even if Teng Xing Chi Yun fell from power, Te Jia Chi Yun still had no chance of becoming the clan leader, as there were simply too many people ahead of him in the line.

That's why I ultimately chose Tega Akame.

"Thank you, Mr. Ming."

Tega Chiyun stood up and bowed deeply to Su Yuan.

The more they pondered, the more terrifying Su Yuan's schemes became. It wasn't just his understanding of the situation's development that made him certain that the candidates for clan leader would be reshuffled after Teng Xing Chi Yun was taken away.

They even took into account the thoughts and concerns of the clan leader, Doubei Chiyun, and ultimately chose Tega Chiyun, whom they thought had no connection with, as their successor.

Little did they know, the cause of all this was Tega Akane.

"Just remember your promise."

Su Yuan spoke calmly.

"Yes."

Tega Akane nodded solemnly, pondered for a moment, and then cautiously asked again, "Mr. Ming, what should I do next?"

At this moment, Tega Akane was filled with ambition. As the second in line to succeed him, it was no exaggeration to say that the position of clan leader was within reach.

“You don’t need to do anything.” Su Yuan glanced at Tega Chiyun. “Just wait quietly.”

"Just wait quietly?" Tega Chiyun was delighted. He preferred to wait quietly, as he was always worried about messing things up when asked to do something.

"Next"

Deep within his sea of ​​consciousness, Su Yuan reviewed the numerous responses from the gray mirror, ensuring that everything was under control, before letting Tega Red Cloud leave first.

The world of divine bodies.

Su Yuan sat cross-legged, carefully sensing his fully energized physical body, and the intertwining and collision of the seven cosmic forces of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements.

"come in."

Su Yuan opened his eyes and spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, the city lord of Luoyang cautiously walked in.

"My lord," the city lord of Luoyang said, "the Bai family is waiting outside, saying they wish to pay you a visit."

Given the Bai family's status, the city lord of Luoyang wouldn't even give them a second glance when they came to visit, only considering the relationship between the Bai family and Su Yuan.

Although the Imperial Citizens and Players didn't place too much importance on their relationship with the Divine Body World, it was still a connection, and the City Lord of Luoyang City didn't dare to make decisions on his own.

"The Bai family?"

Su Yuan's tone was calm, indicating that he already knew.

"Let them in."

Su Yuan spoke up.

"Yes."

The city lord of Luoyang immediately withdrew.

After a while.

The Bai family patriarch and his group were then led inside.

"Shilin, our Bai family has wronged you." The Bai family patriarch knelt on the ground with a thud, saying with deep remorse.

As he spoke, he glanced at Su Yuan, who was sitting in the main seat, and at the respectful Lord of Luoyang.

A sense of shock still welled up inside me.

He originally thought that Su Yuan was only equal in status to the city lord of Luoyang.

But now, is this equality? The city lord of Luoyang wished he could kneel on the ground.

Under these circumstances, the Bai family patriarch immediately adjusted his plan to deal with Su Yuan.

Behind the Bai family patriarch, Bai Tianshu and more than ten Bai family youths stood there, their faces pale.

These dozen or so young members of the Bai family are the main branch members of the Bai family who had conflicts with Bai Shilin in the past, and they have all gathered here now.

In addition, several elders of the Bai family were also present, such as Bai Cangku, Bai Tianshu's grandfather.

"Why aren't you kneeling down?"

The Bai family patriarch rebuked in a low voice.

Immediately, everyone knelt down, bowing their heads and not daring to look at Su Yuan.

"Shilin, you can do whatever you want with these people, but I hope you won't implicate the Bai family," the Bai family patriarch pleaded.

Su Yuan looked calmly at Bai Tianshu and the others.

Immediately, with a slight thought, the power of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements swept over.

In an instant, Bai Tianshu and the others' minds and wills were completely shattered by this immense power, and they collapsed to the ground, losing all vitality.

Although Su Yuan is not Bai Shilin, as a citizen player of the Empire, he also received Bai Tianshu's memories upon his arrival, so he naturally doesn't mind helping the other party take revenge.

"this?"

The Bai family patriarch trembled inwardly.

As a third-tier powerhouse, he naturally sensed the deaths of those behind him.

You must know, Elder Bai Cangku was also a third-tier expert, yet he died like an ant in front of Su Yuan? He didn't even put up the slightest resistance?
"The next patriarch of the Bai family is Bai Housu."

Su Yuan looked at the Bai family patriarch and spoke.

Bai Housu was the only boy who had helped Su Yuan in the Bai family compound before. Although he didn't do anything useful, he was still kind-hearted.

"Bai Housu?"

The Bai family patriarch immediately recalled a great deal of information about Bai Housu.

Average aptitude, born into a branch of the family.

For members of such families, it's difficult to even make it into the middle ranks, let alone become the patriarch.

“Alright, I will relinquish the position of clan leader after I return, and Hou Su will become the new clan leader.”

The Bai family patriarch immediately spoke.

"Go back."

Su Yuan closed his eyes and ignored him.

"Yes Yes Yes."

The Bai family patriarch, feeling as if he had been granted a pardon, hurriedly retreated.
