Monarch of Evernight: The **** decision of 142
bsp;As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.
"What does this mean?!"
"Do you think we can't say a few words about family affairs?" Some elders asked angrily.
Some said quietly: "It seems that we are really old."
"The Xue family no longer needs me to wait for old age."
Some people even directly reprimanded and questioned, "How dare you speak like this when you are still young! Do you still have family laws and clan rules in your eyes?"
"I knew that sooner or later the Xue family would be defeated by a traitor like you!"
Obviously, they are not afraid of this junior Xue Wu, at least not as afraid as they are of Qianye.
The head of the Xue family spoke at this time and said: "Every elder and deacon, please stay and make a decision together. This matter has been settled and there is no need to discuss it further."
Now that the head of the family has spoken, Xue Wu has no reason to persist. He lowered his head and sat down, his face turned ashen. He was scolded badly just now, and those words made people angry.
In any family, in any dynasty, keeping secrets is an important part of power and position. No one among the elders in this family would be willing to take the throne.
Ji Tianqing waited quietly. When the elders of the Xue family finished their quarrel, Fang said slowly: "Since the head of the family said he couldn't recognize it, I'll just say it bluntly. This is the emblem of the demon family."
Not many elders were moved. This badge has a strong demonic style, and anyone with a little knowledge can distinguish it. But not everyone has this knowledge regarding which family they belong to.
The face of the head of the Xue family was a little ugly, and he muttered: "I'm sorry for my blindness, but I can't tell which family's emblem this is."
"The head of the family really can't see it?" Ji Tianqing did not hide his sarcasm.
A few of the elders looked at the head of the family, their expressions flickering.
No matter how rich the Xue family is, the head of the Xue family has no choice but to say, "This seems to be the family emblem of Mesfield." Mesfield is a famous family of demons, and their emblems are not as good as those unknown ones. It's rare for a small family to be like that.
Ji Tianqing smiled slightly and said: "You finally have eyesight for once. Yes, this is the Masefield family emblem. However, this emblem is a little special."
The head of the Xue family picked up the badge again, looked at it carefully for a long time, and then said: "If I have good eyesight, this badge seems to belong to a certain... Marquis?"
There was a commotion among the elders of the Xue family. To them, the Demon Marquis was already a very important figure. Now this badge has fallen into Qianye's hands. Could it be that a marquis has been killed?
The sarcasm in Ji Tianqing's eyes became more and more obvious, and she said: "The master of the house is really good at joking, how can this badge belong to the Marquis? Since the master of the house must not say it clearly, then I am not polite. This badge belongs to the demon vice-duke Lin Carl."
"What?!" With a clang, the badge fell from the hands of the head of the Xue family on the table.
"Does the head of the family still want to ask if it is true or false?"
The head of the Xue family blushed slightly, but he still said bravely: "This badge is indeed the logo of the top management of Macefield, but there does not seem to be any personal emblem on it. I wonder how you can determine that it is Lin Jiaer? ”
Ji Tianqing said: "This badge can only be owned by duke-level nobles. Needless to say. As for why it belongs to Lin Jiaer, it is very simple, because it was snatched from Lin Jiaer."
The elders looked at each other. Many of them had never heard of Lin Jiaer's name. The world outside the Neutral Land was already too far away for them.
The head of the Xue family obviously knew about Lin Jiaer. He tried his best to suppress it but could not hide his shock. He reluctantly said: "What do you mean by showing me a badge from Lin Jiaer?"
"It's very simple. This time the demon's backup fleet is led by Lin Jiaer. Now I can tell you that the demon's backup is gone." Ji Tianqing said directly.
The head of the Xue family was silent for a moment, then asked: "What do you want from our Xue family?"
Before Ji Tianqing could answer, an elder stood up and shouted: "Why do we believe that the demon descendant's backup has been lost? Do we just believe whatever you say, do you really think that we are eating for free? Back off! Wan Bu said, even if what you said is true, Yongye is so big and powerful, wouldn't it be enough to send another fleet? When the demon army arrives, the situation will definitely turn around!"
Before the head of the Xue family could speak, Qianye suddenly jumped up like a ghost, and the red light flashed away in his hand.
The elder was still talking, but suddenly his expression changed drastically. When he looked down, he saw several scarlet spots slowly spreading around his heart. The spots were very small, and in the end they were no more than the size of a pea. However, the elder felt weak all over, could not even speak, and slowly collapsed.
There was an uproar in the room, and people screamed. Everyone gathered around the elder who fell to the ground to check. Some were on guard against Qianye, but no one dared to attack.
The most terrifying thing about an opponent like Qianye is that he is not afraid of siege at all. In addition, his speed is too fast and his attacks are too fierce. Even in a group battle, most of the opponents he picks up will not escape death. The elders of the Xue family are all people who cherish their lives. Obviously, even at this time, no one wants to be the one who is unjustly killed.
Only a few people, including the head of the Xue family and Xue Wu, saw clearly that what Qianye shot out of his hand were several extremely thin red lines. I don't know what's special about these red lines, but they are extremely powerful. Once they are hit, the elder's life will be cut off.
"Why is this!" The head of the Xue family asked loudly, shocked and angry.
Ji Tianqing still sat calmly and said: "This elder seems to be determined to side with the demon, so there is no other way but to send him to death."
"You killed people in my Xue family, and you didn't take us seriously?" An elder immediately scolded.
Ji Tianqing said calmly: "Don't you understand yet? We are determined to win this battle and there is no room for maneuver. As long as you stand on the side of the demon, no matter who it is, kill it immediately."
Another elder stood up and said angrily: "This is unreasonable! You are forcing our Xue family to fall to the devil!"
"If the Xue family turns to the devil, then we will wipe out the Xue family." Ji Tianqing said it lightly, as if the implication was not to destroy the family, but just a trivial matter.
The head of the Xue family couldn't calm down at this moment, and said slightly angrily: "You behave like this, it turns out that you are not here to discuss matters at all."
Before Ji Tianqing spoke, Xue Wu suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "Master, don't you understand? They are indeed not here to discuss, they just want us to make a decision, whether to side with the empire or Yongye."
There was an awkward silence in the hall.
Another elder asked tentatively: "What if my Xue family doesn't help each other?"
Ji Tianqing said coldly: "The war is imminent, how can we allow small details to affect the overall situation. Before the demonic back-up arrives, everyone who is not part of my empire will be uprooted!"
This was said in an extremely rude manner, and the head of the Xue family also changed his expression. He never expected that Ji Tianqing would not leave any room. He frowned and said, "Aren't you afraid of losing people's hearts by doing this?"
"To this day, does the empire need such wavering hearts? Where to go? Let the head of the family say something. If you don't want to stand on the side of the empire, then we will leave immediately."
The head of the Xue family smiled bitterly and said: "This, this is too urgent. Can you give me a little time to discuss it?"
Ji Tianqing nodded: "Okay, half an hour." After saying that, he sat there motionless, showing that he was a bad visitor.
The head of the Xue family smiled bitterly, stood up first, and walked out of the room. The elders looked at each other, then filed out with the body of the elder who fell on the ground, and went to discuss among themselves.
Qianye stood up and stood in front of the window, looking thoughtfully at the endless Xue family mansion in front of him, silent.
Ji Tianqing came to him and shrugged: "This is all Song Zining's idea. I'm just a sounding board. If you want to blame you, blame him! Come on, let me show you this."
As he spoke, Ji Tianqing threw a pamphlet to Qianye.
Qianye opened it and saw dense conversations written inside, most of which were spoken by Ji Tianqing. He couldn't help but be stunned: "What is this?"
"Script."
In the conference room in the courtyard next door, the elders of the Xue family were arguing fiercely. There were still a few who had strong opinions and their attitudes were extremely determined. They didn't dare to speak in front of Qianye, but at this moment, facing their own people, they spoke freely and said whatever they wanted.
Most elders just want to negotiate more conditions and gain some benefits. As for how to distribute the benefits, there were disagreements, and they did not hesitate to have a big quarrel, as if the benefits had already been received.
The head of the Xue family frowned and suddenly asked Xue Wu: "Xiao Wu, what do you think?"
Xue Wu had been silent at first, but now he said: "The head of the family still doesn't understand? Our use value is only this little."
"You and Qianye are familiar with each other, can you be accommodating?"
Xue Wu sighed softly and said: "The difference in strength is too big, how can we talk about accommodation? What's more, my Xue family, how can we have any old relationship with him?"
All the elders were silent. Looking back on the past, the Xue family had attacked Qianye overtly and covertly more than once, but suffered heavy losses. This so-called "love" is actually a fear of being beaten.
However, the conditions proposed by Ji Tianqing were so bad that there were almost no conditions at all. The head of the Xue family was still undecided.
At this moment, Xue Wu suddenly took a side step and ducked behind the two elders who had always had a tough attitude. With a flash of cold light in his hand, he took two short knives and pierced the two elders' backs!
Xue Wu suddenly attacked and shocked everyone. The head of the family shouted: "Xiao Wu, what are you doing?"
Xue Wuren fell to the ground with the corpses of the two elders, threw down the blood-stained dagger, and then said calmly: "It's just for the survival of the Xue family. These two people received a large amount of benefits from the demons, so they naturally refused to agree. You can't do it for the sake of Their selfish interests will be buried with the entire Xue family, right? No one objects now, head of the family, let’s decide.”
An elder sighed: "Why is it like this? Why is it like this! No matter how ferocious Qianye is, can he kill all of us in the Xue family by himself?"
"You can kill him." Xue Wu lowered his eyes and said, his expression as usual and his tone calm.
At this time, the room was silent, and no one asked questions.
"It's decided, our Xue family will surrender to the empire!" The head of the Xue family finally made up his mind.
After a while, after hearing the decision of the head of the Xue family, Ji Tianqing straightened her body, and the aura of a peerless strong man emerged spontaneously, and she said calmly: "Congratulations, head of the family."
This simple congratulation scared all the elders of the Xue family into cold sweats.
Xue Wu came to Qianye with a resolute face and gritted his teeth and said: "Sir Qianye, from now on there will only be a subordinate relationship and nothing else!"
