Chapter 516 – The position of the family head

“Grand Elder’s words are not good enough.” As soon as Yun Waitian’s voice fell, a Yun Clan Elder followed up, “In terms of prestige, strength, and the contributions to our Yun Clan over the years, the next Family Head is none other than the Grand Elder.”

“That’s right.” Another elder also nodded his head immediately after, “In terms of rank, the Grand Elder is ranked first in the Council of Elders, in terms of strength, he is also second to none, in the years when the family head was invalidated, all the major events in the clan were undertaken by the Grand Elder with all of his strength, so if we were to choose the most suitable and convincing family head, it would only be the Grand Elder.”

“I also think so.”

Several elders spoke out one after another, all of them strongly recommending Grand Elder Yun Waitian to succeed as the head of the family, gradually, more and more spoke out for Yun Waitian, and those elders who didn’t speak out ultimately accounted for only a few, all of them could only sigh in secret. Immediately after, those cloud family middle layer, and young disciples also began to shout the name of the great elder.

A hundred years ago, Yun Canghai never returned, Yun Qinghong succeeded the cloud family head, at that time, in terms of prestige and influence of the family, ten cloud outside the sky can not compare to Yun Qinghong. Cloud light Hong in the cloud family, the whole family to him as the head, no one disobedience. Although, the cloud family then the strongest eleven cornerstone overnight collapse, the strength of a fall, but also bear the blame, but the cloud family up and down all believe, have cloud light Hong lead, the cloud family will rise again. Outside the cloud family, no one has ever dared to underestimate the strength of the great decline of the cloud family …… because at that time the cloud family has a great talent stunning cloud light Hong.

But twenty-two years ago, Yun Qinghong was ruined.

In a world where strength is honored, a weak person whose strength is as low as dust, and who can never be strong again, even with the aura of “family head”, can no longer be truly feared and respected. During the past twenty-two years, the reputation he once accumulated has rapidly disappeared, and people’s admiration, respect, awe, worship, and scorn for him …… has gradually turned into sighs, indifference, and even ridicule and gloating along with his body’s abolition. The Yun Family’s seniors, peers, and descendants who had pinned deep hopes on him were endlessly disappointed and sighed, while the Yun Family, as the Illusory Demon Realm’s topmost Xuanxuan cultivation family, who, in turn, would not mind at all being led by a complete and utter invalid?

Even those who once secretly swore a lifetime of allegiance to Yun Qinghong, part of the gloomy and retired, the other part is still willing to swear to follow, but also by the Yun Qinghong initiative expulsion …… because at that time he knew his own physical condition, to follow his own side, there will be no future to speak of, he would not be willing to delay these sincere treatment of their own people.

At the end of the day, he still has the identity of the “head of the family”, but around him, only his wife and son.

Twenty years ago, who would have thought that Yun Qinghong, who had the brightest halo in the entire Illusory Demon Realm, would have fallen into a state where he was barely seen by anyone.

After being crippled for twenty-two years, to this day, this family head who had once led the Yun Family, amongst his own family, was the one who had not stood out to speak for him and show solidarity with him to continue as family head.

However, in the face of such a reality, Yun Qinghong does not blame anyone, after all, he is an invalid, the Council of Elders or, the Great Elder or, their original intention, is also for the future of the Yun family. After all, let an invalid for the family head of the cloud family, not only by the shame, but also let a person can not see the future. Compared to the future of the Yun Family, the matter of the family head’s bloodline did not seem so important.

The voices boosting for the Grand Elder grew louder and louder, and Yun Waitian held back his excitement and humbly said, “I am truly flattered by everyone’s love and affection, but my abilities are low and I really don’t dare to take on the position of this family head……. On the contrary, it is the Seventh Elder’s abilities that are outstanding, and he is the perfect candidate to be the new family head. ”

The “seventh elder” who was mentioned by Yun Wai Tian hurriedly waved his hand: “Great Elder’s words are a disgrace to me, with all due respect, looking at the whole Yun family, with the Great Elder in place, whoever else succeeds as the family head, it is difficult to convince the public ah.”

“Right! Support the Grand Elder to succeed the family head!”

“Grand Elder, don’t push back, the Yun Family’s successor as Family Head is none other than you.”

The Yun Family’s cries iterated once again, and Yun Wai Tian clenched his fists with both hands, already excited with a surging heart……. Twenty-two years ago, after Yun Qinghong’s body was abolished, he had the idea of becoming the family head, and in these twenty-two years, he had been working hard for this goal, accumulating higher and higher prestige in the Yun Family… …If he becomes the family head, the Yun family’s family head line that has lasted for ten thousand years will be rewritten, and a hundred years later, his son, Yun Xinyue, will become the next family head, and then his grandchildren, his offspring ……

Facing Yun Qinghong, who had become an invalid, and his son, who was unable to use the power of the Xuan Deity, he knew that this day was not far away …… and today, too, had finally arrived officially.

Amidst the rising cries of the Yun family’s children, a discordant cold laugh sounded, ”Since Eldest Elder Yun himself knows that he doesn’t deserve this family head position, why do you people need to blindly clamor and make things difficult for Eldest Elder Yun? If Cloud Elder can’t resist, and then go back on his word and agree to it, spread out, won’t others say that your Cloud Family’s Elder has not only long coveted the position of the family head, but also hypocritically shrugged off the name of this insidious, cunning and hypocritical, but it’s quite unpleasant to listen to ah …… Cloud Elder, don’t you think so?”

Mu Yu Bai’s words can be described as quite vicious, cloud family up and down all support cloud outside the sky to succeed the head of the family, cloud outside the sky himself is just a little shirk, but was Mu Yu Bai see a needle in the eye, borrowed his words, hard to buckle him if he succeeded the head of the family, on the despicable insidious hypocrisy big hat. The corners of Yun Wai Tian’s mouth twitched violently, and just as he was about to say something, to his right hand side, another open-mouthed voice rang out:

“Young Family Master Mu’s words, I do agree.” The one who spoke was Helian Peng, he narrowed his triangular eyes and slowly said, “I heard that after Yun Qinghong was abolished, the Cloud Family’s Grand Elder took over all the things up and down the Cloud Family, no matter how big or small the things are all in control of the hands, although it’s just a Grand Elder, but it’s more than the head of the family still the head of the family ah …… tsk tsk tsk, I have heard a lot of things from A dozen years ago, I heard a lot of people talking about the cloud family elder must be coveting the position of the head of the family, so many years have passed, this kind of rumor is more and more, if the cloud elder really suddenly became the head of the cloud family, can be confirmed these rumors, at that time, hehehe, the head of the family name in the cloud family is loud and clear, to the outside, it may not be stinking ah.”

He Lianpeng, who had previously helped Yun Waitian speak, and almost fought with Mu Yu Bai because of it, even helped Mu Yu Bai this time, and the words he said to Yun Waitian were even sharper and meaner than what Mu Yu Bai had said. Yun Waitian’s face immediately changed rapidly, and the Yun family’s core elders also looked at each other. Mu Yu Bai frowned, slanting a glance at Helian Peng …… He wouldn’t be naive enough to think that Helian Peng would kindly obey his words.

Could it be that this fellow was here today specifically to cause trouble?

Mu Yu Bai’s words made Yun Wai Tian feel like he had swallowed a fly, and what He Lianpeng had said was even more tantamount to a mouthful of poop, making it hard for him to be annoyed that his spleen and lungs were almost ready to burst open. He thought that if he wanted to become the head of the family, Mu Yubai would definitely be a big obstacle, but he didn’t expect that, in addition to Mu Yubai, there was one more He Lianpeng stirring up the trouble! He twitched the corners of his mouth for a while, trying to make his expression appear not so ugly, and reluctantly said, “Everything I, Yun Waitian, have done over the years has been for the sake of the Yun family, and I have never had any greed for this family head position.”

“Alas!” The Great Elder Yun Jiang, who had been silent for a long time, sighed faintly and said, “Wai Tian, as far as the current Yun Family is concerned, you are indeed the most suitable candidate for the position of Family Head, regardless of whether or not this is what you wish for, you succeeding as the Family Head is the best possible outcome for the Yun Family nowadays, so you don’t need to excuse yourself. As for the words of outsiders, it’s better not to listen to them.”

The words of the Great Elder were naturally a thousand words. Cloud Outer Heaven was secretly happy in his heart, and was just about to go along with the next step, when he heard County King Huiyue suddenly open his mouth and say, “Regarding the matter of this Cloud Family’s new family head, this king has some shallow opinions, and all of the members of the Cloud Family might as well listen to them.”

County King Huiye opened his mouth, instantly attracting all the gazes and attention. Yun Waitian retracted the words he was about to utter and turned to the Phaenomena County King, respectfully saying, “What are your highness’ insights, I would like to hear them.”

The Hui Night Sovereign King had a calm face and smiled slightly, he threw out the folding fan in his hand and said slowly and methodically, “According to this king’s opinion, what young master Mu and Elder Helian have said are not unreasonable, although Grand Elder Yun has labored hard and made great achievements, and his reputation in the Yun family is unrivaled, but he is also really unsuitable for the position of this head of the family, or else, just as young master Mu and Elder Helian said, it would be very easy to give outsiders a talking point, which is fearful of what others say! Aah. If it’s just about the Grand Elder alone, the Yun Family’s current situation is already worrying, and if it gets caught up in the vortex of public opinion because of this matter, it will be even more unfavorable to the Yun Family.”

County King Huiye’s words caused Yun Waitian’s heart to jerk violently as he lowered his head, hiding the expression on his face that was worse than tears, “Your Highness Huiye is right, I am indeed unsuitable for this family head position.”

County King Kaguya followed up, “With the Yun family’s current situation, replacing the family head is imperative, this king does have a candidate that he thinks is a better family head.”

“I don’t know who Your Highness Kaguya is referring to.” Great Elder Yun Xi said.

Sovereign King Phaenix Night put away his folding fan, stood up, and leisurely paced, “The Grand Elder is not suitable to become the family head, and amongst the current generation of elders in the Yun Family, one cannot find anyone more convincing than the Grand Elder, so why not put the choice of this new family head on another level.”

“What does Your Highness Kaguya mean?”

County King Kaguya said, “Back then, you lost your family head and the ten strongest Great Elders, your strength greatly declined just overnight, and you were burdened with a hundred years of guilt. The Yun Family wants to rise again, but it undoubtedly needs a long period of time, and even more so, it needs an extremely excellent leader. A good enough leader will certainly need enough time to cultivate, in the opinion of the king, since the elder generation is difficult to choose, it may as well choose from the younger generation. Now the whole city knows that Yun Xin Yue, the son of the Yun Family’s Grand Elder, is extremely talented and stunning, with a proud talent, and innately possesses the same green-colored Xuan Gang as the Demon King, but also has a humble temperament and is not arrogant, so he is really a proud son of the Heavenly Yun Family. This king has heard people praise him more than once as the greatest hope for the rise of the Yun family. If he succeeds as the head of the Yun Family, and is assisted by the Grand Elder and all the elders, I believe that in less than ten years, Yun Xinyue will be able to become an excellent leader, and the rise of the Yun Family will be just around the corner.”

“Furthermore, although Yun Xin Yue is young, but I believe that his natural talent and how he is as a person, you people of the Yun family know it best, by him taking over as the head of the family, this king believes that those who do not obey may be less than those who do not obey the Grand Elder. What do you all think?”
