3933 A farce.
Hearing Ling mofeng’s words, the family heads who were already disloyal began to understand. By attaching themselves to the Ling family, they naturally had to give a fair share of their family’s assets to the Ling family. In the past, it was still fine when the Ling family was strong. Even if they lost some of their profits, they could still gain some benefits from the Ling family. However, ever since the Ling family fell, they could no longer gain any benefits from the Ling family. Instead, they became a burden to them.
As long as they left the Ling family, all of the properties would belong to them, and they would no longer need to share them with outsiders. The strength of the family would definitely rise to another level. This kind of good thing was even better than what the third elder had promised them.
Although Ling mofeng’s Supreme level strength was indeed beyond their expectations, and with such a master, even if the Shangguan family were to send out all their forces, it would be very difficult to do anything to the Ling family, and it was only a matter of time before the Ling family rose again, but that was still too far away, and not as practical as the immediate benefits.
“Ahem, ahem, then I’ll have to thank master. Our Sun family will also leave the Ling family. From now on, we’ll have nothing to do with the Ling family.” Sun Shilin was the first to speak.
“Our Zhou family will also break away from the Ling family. From now on, we will have nothing to do with the Ling family.”
“Our Yu clan will also break away from the Ling clan.” After that, a few more affiliated families announced their departure from the Ling family.
Such an outcome made many of the family heads of the Ling clan’s branch families feel envious. All these years, in order to support the Zong family, they had also paid a huge price. It was a pity that they were a branch of the Ling clan and could not separate from the Ling family like the other branch families.
However, no one knew if this was a blessing or a curse. It was too early to be happy that she had left the Ling family. Not long after, they would be the ones filled with regret. However, what was the use of that?
Seeing Wu yude, Sun Shilin, and the others quickly leave as if they had been pardoned, the third elder’s face turned black. He had originally hoped to rely on these people’s support to ascend to the position of the patriarch, but he didn’t expect it to be over like this.
Originally, even the family head couldn’t decide whether the affiliated families would stay or leave based on his own personal wishes. It had to be decided by the joint decision of the consecrated elders. However, when Ling mofeng asked Wu yude that question and told him his brother Wu yude’s last words, he remembered a very important question. These affiliated families, most of them were gathered by Ling mofeng when he was young and traveled around the heaven domain. Now that he took the initiative to let them leave, no one could say anything.
Sigh, how could he have missed this out? The more he thought about how he had worked so hard for twenty years and was about to become the family head, but in the end, it was all for nothing. The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became.
A family storm had been so easily extinguished by Ling mofeng.
Ling mo Feng’s methods could be said to be extremely simple, even a little brutal, but no one present felt unconvinced. A master of the Honorable level was one of the most powerful cultivators in the Qing-Yun realm. Even if he was willing to give up his position, the Ling clan would never agree to it.
Only then did Ling Chuxi realize that she had underestimated her grandfather. In the face of absolute power, any kind of scheme would not be able to withstand a single blow. The third elder’s plan to re-establish the family head was simply a farce.
“Chuxi, come over and pay your respects to the elders of the clan. This is …” Ling mofeng said to Ling Chuxi after those irrelevant people had left.
“Wait!” The third elder interrupted Ling mofeng’s words and said,”Lord family head, have you forgotten something?”
Of course, things would not end like this. The following difficulties were something Ling Chuxi had to face! However, Ling Chuxi’s heart was calm and confident. Today, she wanted to return to the Ling family with dignity and make everyone in the Ling family convinced. In the end, she would definitely lead the Ling family to stand at the peak again!
