Chapter 686 – Fortunes and Woes
For a while, the conference hall was actually quiet for a moment.
This kind of thing was actually contradictory, in the entire world’s human heart ethos, everyone respected and admired the strong, achieving the highest achievement of the Sword Casting Valley system at a young age was definitely something that everyone admired, including Tie Jingxuan. If it was a regular situation, Zheng Haoran could directly be the Valley Master and everyone would not have an opinion.
But right now was not a regular situation.
On the contrary, it was precisely because you were too strong that everyone was unwilling for the Zheng family to continuously hold the position of Valley Master, which would have been the main factor that triggered the change. It wasn’t just Tie Jingxuan alone, but collectively pretty much everyone had such thoughts. Even the few branches that had a closer relationship with the Zheng family over the years, inwardly felt that it would be better to change – after all, if it continued like this, it was likely to be turned into a hereditary system of Valley Masters by the Zheng family, slowly leaving other families with no say in the matter any longer, this wasn’t something that didn’t have any other references to precedent, and no one was willing to see that day.
So most people are not in the rebellion, more people are just by iron Jingxuan a fool, want or in Zheng Yezhi back to the valley before the next valley master, so even if Zheng Haoran want to take over is also the next session of the thing, want to become the Zheng family hereditary is not so easy.
Iron Jingxuan simply can not be entangled in the original seven Xuan Valley rebellion to that extent, otherwise directly swarmed up to chop Zheng Haoran on the line, why engage in this kind of hall of fame?
Being Zheng Haoran this Evening Cloud Sword a light, Tie Jingxuan a moment actually do not know what to say good, half a long time before stifling a sentence: “Time change, purely rely on the casting means has not been able to win the seat of the valley master.”
Zheng Haoran sneered, “What else is needed? Management ability? It just so happens that it’s also time for the end of the year debriefing, so Haoran will incidentally report the results of this half year to you all. Since Haoran took over the operation of this valley, the financial surplus of the valley has increased by ten percent year-on-year compared to last year, the high-quality mineral warehousing has increased, in which there are extremely special and rare items that have made up for the gaps, and the rate of disciples forging Xuan ranked blades out of their masters has increased by five percent year-on-year ……”
The crowd was silent.
Zheng Haoran and the alliance of the six paths to expand trade, this needless to say is a great win-win thing for both sides, at the same time for the collection of high-quality minerals to find a great help, do not need his own ability, this half year’s earnings are also destined to be beautiful to the extreme, what do others take to compare?
Iron Jingxuan from the teeth to hold out a sentence: “and the alliance of the six paths of trade, this is in the ancestral system to step on the line, can not be counted as meritorious?”
Zheng Haoran didn’t even raise his eyes, “This is something that was passed by the joint motion, how come Uncle Tie wants to disown it?”
“Since it is a matter passed by motion, Xian Nephew as his own achievements is also not proper right ……”
“Then you can find one other with achievements to come, let everyone taste one or two.”
There was an embarrassing silence.
Zheng Haoran laughed, “I do have a proposal, my incompetent younger brother, who presided over the construction of the Spring and Autumn New City and presided over the transportation of a county in Spirit State, is well known in the dynasty and the countryside, and his abilities are well known. It might as well let him act as this valley’s master, but it’s what the people want.”
The group of people became even more embarrassed.
Tie Jingxuan eyed another old man beside him, that old man hardened his head and said, “Xian nephew two brothers are indeed the earth’s dragons and phoenixes, however, the age is still young, the seniority is insufficient, according to my opinion, this time the new valley master is still among the old people to elect ……”
“Election among the elderly ……” Zheng Haoran tightly pinched the hilt of the sword, word by word: “The valley master is still there, that is, according to the ancestral system to elect the generation of the valley master, is only the need to change the generation. What is the meaning of electing an old man, do you all think that the Valley Master is dead!”
Then someone said, “Haoran, we this is also the move to hold the weight …… you are still young ……”
Zheng Haoran laughed out loud, “So this is the result of your already public deliberations? Who was chosen?”
“Elder Tie’s cultivation is superb and his casting is highly skilled, so he can be the Acting Valley Master.”
“Elder seconded.”
“Seconded.”
In a wave of seconding voices, Zheng Haoran leisurely said, “I’m sorry, I’m acting on behalf of my uncle’s seat, and I have the right to veto the Valley Master. You guys seconded the motion even louder, I, Zheng family, vetoed it. Can we adjourn the meeting?”
A third embarrassing silence.
Tie Jingxuan sighed only after a long time, “Xian nephew why do you need to be like this, originally we intend to resolve this issue peacefully ……”
As he spoke, two old men on the left and right suddenly struck out, grabbing at Zheng Haoran’s left and right shoulders.
“Whoosh!” Zheng Haoran’s sword that was placed on the desktop was automatically sheathed, the radiant light directly pierced into the claw on the left, blood spattered, and in the midst of the howls of pain, Zheng Haoran slapped his palm to the right, resisting the attack on the right side.
“Zheng Haoran!” Tie Jingxuan clapped his hands, “To strike at an uncle, treasonous!”
A group of old men angrily slapped the table, “Zheng Haoran! You dare to openly injure someone!”
Zheng Haoran’s face was expressionless: “Such a blatant conspiracy to rebel, so let’s cut out the grandstanding.”
With the sound of the words, more than ten elite and strong members of the Zheng family poured in from the side door, the group protecting around Zheng Haoran. Tie Jingxuan’s face sank like water, beckoning, a large group of people also surged into the hall, the situation had finally turned from a pretentious meeting to a meeting of bloodshed with swords drawn.
Apart from a few elders with somber faces, the vast majority stood up in disbelief, “What’s going on here?”
Zheng Haoran faintly looked around the circle, a hint of a smile finally appeared on that square face, “It seems that my Zheng family isn’t doing a bad job, not everyone is plotting a rebellion, I’m relieved.”
An old man was shocked, “What’s going on here?”
Zheng Haoran said indifferently, “Uncle has passed away, killed by a sneak attack by a traitor on the road. Originally, I didn’t dare to believe this news, but now I have no more doubts. Today’s meeting, all of you are just falling for some people’s tricks, if you unanimously force me out of power, then you are being held hostage to participate in this rebellion, my Zheng family will naturally settle the score on each and every one of you, and all of you will just have to pinch your noses and hold together, recognizing the outcome of this rebellion.”
Several people were dumbfounded, not having digested the news of Zheng Yezhi’s death.
“It’s a pity that I, Zheng Haoran, am not a fishes, since I know the news, I am naturally prepared, how can I still be stupid enough to fall into the reckoning?” Zheng Haoran slowly raised his sword and pointed it at Tie Jingxuan, “Expecting me to go crazy and force everyone to the opposite side, you might as well save yourself the trouble and make an honest list of points, so that I can see what the plotters of rebellion all look like.”
Tie Jingxuan narrowed his eyes and said, “Xian nephew is indeed very good …… Unfortunately, I have my own state of affairs in Great Zhou, and Iron Mou has the order of His Majesty, and now Zheng Yezhi is dead, and expects others to fight for your Zheng family can be a little bit difficult, and you broke our plan and how, in the end, you still have to obediently be a prisoner of the order. If you tie yourself up and ask to surrender, perhaps for old times sake, we can still leave you a way out.”
The group of elders looked at each other in dismay, all standing by the side without saying a word. Several of those who conspired with Tie Jingxuan stood beside him, standing opposite to the Zheng family members beside Zheng Haoran.
The situation was clear, as long as the others didn’t intervene, the Zheng family would definitely not be able to deal with Tie Jingxuan’s group of conspirators.
A strange voice suddenly came from the air around Zheng Haoran: “What the hell, Ji Wuyou is in jail, but also His Majesty’s order, which His Majesty?”
Tie Jingxuan’s color changed, “Who?”
A shadow suddenly appeared and said with a smile, “Traceless Dao Guan Xiaoqi, meet you all.”
“The Alliance of the Six Paths …… No wonder Zheng Haoran got the news beforehand.” Tie Jingxuan laughed coldly, “Is this your Zheng family’s bottom line?”
He paused, pointing to the neutral elders and laughed, “All of you can see that the Zheng family continues to stay in its position, and sooner or later, it will be a Devil Sect lackey. What Mister Tie is doing is all for the future of my Sword Casting Valley!”
The words have not yet fallen, outside the door came the sound of a ghostly sigh, this sound is very light at first, but into the house for some reason but suddenly like a tsunami swept the eardrums, shocked everyone’s qi and blood surging, that the angry sea of berserk waves of the same pressure forced people to breathe become difficult.
Guan Xiaoqi could no longer smile, directly changed his face, “Chang Tianyuan!”
Although they knew that Chang Tianyuan had killed Zheng Yezhi, they didn’t think that he was really so fine to hide outside and participate in a civil war forcing a junior? This is still a Cave Void powerhouse, do you want to have some face?
Guan Xiaoqi secretly complained bitter, although they have someone outside to receive, but sneak in to help him alone ah …… would have expected the worst case scenario can also be received to save Zheng Haoran, can be so a hole virtual strong man suppressed the field, their own life do not know will not be lost here! Zheng Haoran said that there are not many traitors, the situation can be reversed, and now also reversed a hair line, early to go is not all right?
Neutral elders finally slowly moved the pace, leaned to the side of the iron Jingxuan.
The good man refused to lose in front of him, people cave virtual late-stage strong man appeared, even the face does not need to show is a strong absolute deterrent, Zheng family saw a single tree is difficult to support, there is nothing loyal to say that they want to let the Zheng family to let the position of the Zheng family to this situation, who is full of support for the Zheng family to die for the war?
Tie Jingxuan revealed a hint of a smile: “Xian ……”
“Nephew” word has not yet exported, a flower in front of me, the house without warning appeared a young woman, long hair straight down to the bend of the leg, pure and beautiful face but like a puppet without expression, eyes ghostly ripples can not be deciphered ripples: “The breath of this place! …… so disgusting ……”
