Xia Wangcheng.

Oriental family.

In the meeting hall, many senior figures from the Oriental Family gathered here.

But at this time, the atmosphere was extremely solemn!

Sitting on the main seat was a white-haired old man, dressed in a silver brocade robe and looking energetic.

He is the supreme elder of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Yu, an ancient figure who has lived for more than a thousand years. He has existed since the last generation of King Xia was alive!

However, due to his mediocre qualifications and limited spiritual roots, even if he has lived for more than a thousand years, he has only reached the seventh level of the Divine Transformation Stage and is in the same realm as Dongfang Haoran, who has practiced for less than a thousand years.

That's why he retreated behind the scenes, took charge of the family, and passed the title of family head to Dongfang Haoran.

But at this time, Dongfang Haoran has fallen and the family is facing a crisis. He can only step out again and take charge of the overall situation!

"Let's talk about what we should do now!"

Dongfang Yu had a calm face, looked at everyone in the meeting hall, and spoke slowly: "Haoran has died. Although the prince has ignored us for the time being, when the prince ascends the throne tomorrow and the overall situation is settled, he will definitely settle this matter first!"

After hearing this, the atmosphere suddenly fell silent, and no one spoke.

Many people's faces were extremely solemn, and some even looked worried.

A long time passed.

Above the first person on the left, an old woman with the same old appearance suddenly said: "Brother, we must not sit back and wait for death, nor can we let it go like this!"

"Haoran is the most outstanding member of my Dongfang family in the past thousand years. He has unparalleled qualifications and superhuman strategies. He was expected to lead our Dongfang family to rise, but he was killed by that weakling at his age. This hatred is irreconcilable!"

"At this time, King Xia has fallen and the vitality of the Xia Palace has been severely damaged. Why not...reverse it?"

The old woman's face was cold and stern, and her eyes were filled with murderous intent!

She is the biological sister of Dongfang Yu, named Dongfang Mingzhu. She is also an ancient figure who has lived for more than a thousand years. She is also at the seventh level of the Divine Transformation Stage!

"No!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a middle-aged man below quickly stood up and said: "Second Elder, this must not be done!"

"I was at fault in this matter and tried to seize the throne. At this time, the eldest brother was beheaded by the prince. What reason do we have to take action?"

"Furthermore, the strange and powerful person beside the prince, even the eldest brother and the Nangong family member, were killed by him in the Xia Palace without any resistance. It is absolutely impossible for ordinary powerful people in the God Transformation Realm to achieve this. He is definitely a God Transformation Realm.

At the peak of the realm, or even at the stage of returning to the void, maybe this is the backup plan left by King Xia!"

"Since the prince has not pursued this matter, it will not necessarily implicate my Dongfang family. If we are planning to rebel now, wouldn't it give the prince an excuse to take action? Who will resist the strange and powerful man next to the prince?"

Dongfang Pearl looked at him: "Then you mean to blame all this matter on Haoran and surrender to the prince, so as to protect my Dongfang family?"

Dongfang Pearl's tone changed and she said sternly: "Dongfang Zhan, Haoran is your eldest brother, are you worthy of him by doing this?!"

"Second Elder, when the eldest brother tried to support Nangong Aotian in fighting for the position of King of Xia, I opposed it with all my strength!"

Dongfang Zhan's face also darkened, he looked at the Oriental Pearl and said: "Yesterday, my eldest brother insisted on going his own way. He dispatched experts from the family to destroy the Beiming family, which blocked the last escape route. Even if he succeeded in seizing the throne in the end, he would be remembered for eternity.

How can we govern Daxia’s hundreds of millions of people by calling them names?”

"What's more, Daxia has been inherited for so many years and has experienced so many crises and ups and downs, but it has always stood firm. How can there be no backup plan?"

Dongfang Zhan looked at the Oriental Pearl and said without fear: "The eldest brother insisted on going his own way. Taking advantage of King Xia's death, he started a civil strife in an attempt to get involved in King Xia's position. He brought this matter on himself, so why should he involve the family!"

"you……"

Dongfang Pearl looked angry and pointed at Dongfang Zhan, but the latter refused to give in and argued with reason!

In the meeting hall, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Everyone looked at Oriental Pearl and Dongfang Zhan, their eyes flashing and their thoughts varied.

Some people are the main war faction and are still dreaming of taking advantage of the chaos to rise up and compete for the throne.

Some people also think that what Dongfang Zhan said is reasonable. Why should the family be implicated in the consequences of Dongfang Haoran's insistence on going his own way?

No matter how majestic Dongfang Haoran was when he was alive, it is already in the past.

No one wants to be involved in a crisis because of his fault.

"Okay! Stop arguing!"

At this time, the Great Elder Dongfang Yu suddenly interrupted the two of them and stood up and said: "Haoran did not understand the strength of the Xia Palace, so he stood up rashly and wanted to support Nangong Aotian to ascend the throne of Xia Wang. Although he was wrong, but no matter what,

He has always been the head of my Eastern family!"

"If he is allowed to fall, we will have to surrender to the prince. How will we gain a foothold in the Great Xia Dynasty in the future?"

"Great Elder..." Dongfang Zhan's expression suddenly changed.

Dongfang Yuyi raised his hand, looked at him and said: "I know what you are worried about, but my Dongfang family has been inherited for thousands of years and is not so easy to fall. His King Xia has a back-up, doesn't my Dongfang family not have one?"

"

Everyone was startled.

Dongfang Mingzhu's face was filled with joy and she looked at Dongfang Yudao: "Brother, what do you mean..."

Dongfang Yu nodded and said: "In fact, within the family, there is still an ancestor who is at the ninth level of the Divine Transformation Stage alive in the world. He has sealed himself in the coffin of the ancestral hall and studied the great path!"

"The ancestors once said not to disturb him until the family's survival is at stake. Although it is not the last moment yet, we can still ask him to come out!"

Oriental Pearl looked overjoyed and said: "Great! Brother, as long as our ancestors are willing to come out of seclusion, temporarily block the man next to the Dog Prince, and capture the Xia Palace, we will be able to do it without any fuss!"

Dongfang Yu nodded slightly and said: "Just in case, you go to the Nangong family in person. As far as I know, there is an old immortal in the Nangong family who is still alive!"

Dongfang Yu sneered: "This matter started because of them. Haoran also fell because of supporting Nangong Aotian to ascend the throne. If it happens, they will be the ones who benefit the most. How can we let them stay out of it!"

"Yes! Brother!" Oriental Pearl nodded in agreement.

"Great Elder!"

Dongfang Zhan frowned and said, "It would be fine if it succeeds, but what if it fails? By then, the Great Xia Dynasty will no longer have a place for my Dongfang family to stand. Who can guarantee that only the strong man beside the prince will exist in the Xia Palace?"

"

Dongfang Yu also frowned and looked at him and said: "The biggest difference between you and Haoran is that you are too forward-thinking. Since there are two peak gods in Xia Palace, why don't you go to the border with King Xia? Why did King Xia not go to the border with him?

Will he still fall?"

"Moreover, even if we fail, what if we fail? The worst we can do is retreat from Daxia. With the strength of our family, we will be treated as guests in any dynasty in Cangzhou. What are you worried about?"

Dongfang Zhan's expression changed slightly: "Great Elder, if you go to other dynasties, you will never..."

"okay!"

Dongfang Yu waved his hand and interrupted: "I have made up my mind, no need to say more!"

Immediately, he looked at the Oriental Pearl and said: "Go ahead and tell Nangong Ruyu that if you take the Xia Palace, Nangong Lin can inherit the throne and the two families will control Daxia together!"

"yes, Sir!"

Dongfang Pearl nodded, glanced at Dongfang Zhan, moved and disappeared into the hall.

The meeting hall suddenly fell silent again.

Dongfang Zhan turned around and looked in the direction of Xia Palace, sighing slightly in his heart.

Great Elder, I hope your decision is correct...

Otherwise, the Dongfang family will fall into a situation of eternal disaster!

…

at the same time.

The Nangong Family is also holding a similar meeting to the Dongfang Family.

Some people advocate surrendering to the prince and admitting his mistakes to preserve the family.

Some people advocated avenging Nangong Aotian, killing the prince, and continuing to fight for the throne.

Discussions arose, and everyone held their own opinions!

Until the arrival of the Oriental Pearl Tower.

Soon after, an agreement was reached, and the two families hit it off!

Among the other civil and military officials, some were happy and some were worried.

But no one had the courage to continue to do anything like Dongfang and Nangong.

Some ministers wanted to send people out of Xiawang City to tell the relevant tribesmen in the distance about the current situation.

If it really comes to a critical moment, find a way out for yourself.

But before the men sent out, or the birds and beasts conveying the news, reached the outside of the city, they were intercepted by a figure in green.

Obliterated in King Xia's city!
