Our eldest brother never hides good things from us.

"Shen Pingping, do you think the people of the Northern Wilderness would ask my Shen family to help with just a few words? There's no such thing as a free lunch!"

"If you really agree, what's the point of my Shen family having gone through so much trouble to cultivate so many Mahayana experts? You might as well just disband them!"

Ye Shuangjin's imposing aura enveloped the entire area, and his extremely cold voice sent chills down everyone's spine.

Before Shen Pingping could respond, she gave a cold laugh and spoke again, "So you still have Shen Pingping. You've repeatedly humiliated me in public. Do you really think you're the only one who calls the shots in the Shen family?!"

As she unleashed her power, the atmosphere in the entire hall instantly became tense.

Chang Wen was somewhat surprised.

It seems that the Shen family is not as impenetrable as rumored.

However, Ye Shuangjin made a big mistake this time. Her mistake was that she might not have known Shen Pingping's true strength.

If she knew, she probably wouldn't have confronted him directly.

As expected.

Shen Pingping's gaze changed, becoming somewhat cold.

He didn't pay attention to Ye Shuangjin immediately, but looked at Chang Wen and Lin Baoding, "Young friend Chang Wen, fellow Daoist Lin, please wait a moment while I take care of some family matters."

Chang Wen nodded in response, knowing that Shen Pingping was about to reveal her strength.

However, it wasn't quite what he expected.

Instead of immediately displaying her strength to suppress Ye Shuangjin, Shen Pingping turned to look at her and asked coldly, "You mean you don't agree to my Shen family helping?"

"good!"

Ye Shuangjin immediately replied, since Shen Pingping disregarded her dignity. She no longer held back and laid her cards on the table, "Not only will you not help, that criminal woman over there will also be imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison awaiting trial!"

"The fortune teller has already said that she is the cause of the Shen family's downfall! If we don't eliminate her now, when will we ever get another chance!"

Shen Pingping's heart tightened.

Back then, when the Third Elder Shen Lang called her a useless woman, Chang Wen couldn't help but step forward. Now that Ye Shuangjin keeps calling her that, he's genuinely afraid that Chang Wen will chop her up with his sword!

Some might ask, why not send her a voice message to remind her?

Yes, but it's not necessary.

He immediately stopped paying attention to Ye Shuangjin and turned to look at the 1,200 high-ranking members of the Shen family.

These people are at least at the eighth level of the Mahayana stage, and there are nearly a hundred at the peak of the Mahayana stage.

"Support those who don't want to go to the Northern Wilderness, stand up!"

It can be summed up in one sentence.

Anyone could see Shen Pingping's intentions.

It all comes down to how many people support Ye Shuangjin and how many people support him.

Over the years, as Shen Yao secured her position as the young master of the family, her extraordinary talent gradually came to the fore, leading to the formation of the "Young Master Faction" with Shen Yao as its foundation and Ye Shuangjin as its leader.

Its scale is no smaller than Shen Pingping's [Family Head Faction].

Shen Pingping never mentioned this, so everyone assumed it existed.

The fact that they're suddenly being made to stand up suggests that a major purge is about to take place.

But it's not a big problem.

Now that they had made their choice, they wouldn't falter at this crucial moment. Many elders from the minor faction stood up one after another.

There are a total of 712!

"Shen Pingping, I've already said it. The Shen family is no longer a place where you can control everything!"

Seeing so many elders supporting him, Ye Shuangjin gained confidence.

Riding high on the spring breeze, the horse gallops swiftly; if not now, when?

Previously, she hadn't brought this matter to light because she still had feelings for Shen Pingping.

Now that Shen Pingping has proposed it herself, she might as well establish her own faction and govern from there!

Even if Ren Shenping is the most important person in the Shen family, it will be difficult to turn the tide!

You're wrong.

"I have never treated the Shen family as my personal fiefdom."

Shen Pingping looked at Ye Shuangjin with a calm expression.

Before she could respond, Shen Pingping turned to the 488 elders seated there. "Elders, do you support going to the aid of the Northern Wilderness?"

"I will obey the master's orders!"

More than four hundred elders responded in unison.

They all followed Shen Pingping in building their empire, and they only recognized Shen Pingping.

Thank you all for your support.

Shen Pingping looked at the elders, clasped her hands in a salute, and said, "Please come and sit here."

These words were spoken.

The atmosphere in the room became subtle.

The fact that the elders were seated in their respective positions was unprecedented in the Shen family's history of hundreds of thousands of years.

Shen Pingping's actions clearly indicate that she intends to settle scores with Ye Shuangjin.

As the 488 elders sat down behind Chang Wen and the others, Ye Shuangjin suddenly smiled.

"Shen Pingping, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to distance yourself from me?"

Ye Shuangjin's expression changed slightly. "But this is for the best. It saves me from worrying about this matter anymore. Without your restraint, I will only lead the Shen family to a more glorious path."

After finishing his sentence, he changed the subject, "Shen Pingping, you publicly humiliated me, and I should have punished you. However, considering your outstanding contributions to the Shen family, I will let it go this time. But if you show any further disrespect to me, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Chang Wen...

He watched with great interest.

Sometimes, perception can completely influence a person's judgment.

Just like Ye Shuangjin, who is currently riding high on success, I wonder if he will regret it later.

The thought had barely formed in his mind.

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Shen Pingping forcefully compelled Ye Shuangjin to return to his seat with her imposing aura.

Everyone present, except for Chang Wen, was completely dumbfounded.

"You...you're not at the peak of the Mahayana stage!"

Ye Shuangjin's eyes widened, filled with horror!

The more than seven hundred elders behind him were also startled by Shen Pingping!

What's going on? This is so sudden!

If Shen Pingping is at the peak of the Mahayana stage, then no matter what they choose, it won't have much of an impact.

However, if Shen Pingping is at the Mahayana level, then things will be different.

A person above the Mahayana level is enough to threaten their status, or even their life!

"Now, do you still wish to sit with me in the position of head of the family?"

Shen Pingping didn't make any extra movements, but simply looked calmly at Ye Shuangjin.

Ye Shuangjin gritted her teeth.

The moment Shen Pingping revealed her strength, she had already lost this factional struggle. She lost completely.

One who is above the Mahayana level can bridge any gap in any sense.

"Of course I want to! How could I not want to!"

But Ye Shuangjin did not yield. He said coldly, "Why should the experts my Shen family has nurtured with countless resources go to support the Northern Wilderness without any reason?"

"And that wicked woman over there! She's the key factor that will lead to the downfall of my Shen family! I was just taking emergency measures to protect my family; what did I do wrong?!"

"And she's already survived in the Haoran Immortal Sect! Why didn't she stay there peacefully? Why did she have to come back to my Shen family to fight for power and stir up internal strife?! Why?!"

"In the end, despite your immense strength, you didn't protect the interests of my Shen family; instead, you sided with outsiders! Do you even deserve to be the head of the Shen family?!"

"That's enough!"

Shen Pingping quickly stopped him, "I can tolerate your usual underhanded tactics of rallying elders to undermine my power. But if you dare to speak recklessly again today, I will not tolerate it!!!"

Ye Shuangjin was startled.

"Father, you're insane! How dare you talk about my mother like that!"

Just when everyone thought things had calmed down for the time being, a delicate shout suddenly came from outside the hall.

The person who arrived was none other than Shen Yao, the young master of the Shen family.

Under the Shen family's dedicated nurturing, she not only reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage at the age of eighteen, but also awakened the Glazed Sacred Body, which ranked tenth on the Sacred Body Ranking!

Not only that, she was also extremely beautiful, and her clothes made her look incredibly noble.

However, her face always inadvertently revealed an arrogant and conceited air, which lowered people's first impression of her.
