Yao Yuanxiong stood up directly: "Is it Ancestor Haokong?!"
Yao Xiuming also stood up, his face changed drastically.
Ancestor Haokong is another ancestor of the Yao family—Yao Haokong!
In terms of strength alone, Yao Haokong is the strongest among the two ancestors of the Yao family!
It is precisely because he does not care about worldly affairs that he concentrates on cultivation, and thus has a cultivation level that is superior to everyone in the Yao family!
After Yao Yuanxiong shouted his honorific, a tall and tall figure slowly appeared in the hall.
Although he looks old, there is a hint of domineering hidden between his eyebrows!
Obviously, this is a domineering aura that seems to be natural and can only be cultivated after being immersed in the art of swords for many years!
His tall and straight figure also symbolizes that he is by no means an ordinary old man!
"Ancestor Haokong! It's really you!"
Yao Yuanxiong was extremely excited.
The moment Yao Haokong appeared here, he knew that the ideas of people like Chu Minrui were going to fail!
"Ancestor Haokong, how could you..."
Yao Xiuming carefully glanced at the frightened Chu Minrui and others, and then looked back at Yao Haokong.
"Ancestor Haokong, the Chu family is the number one among the eight inherited families after all. Even if they want to enter the forbidden area to check..."
Snapped!
Suddenly, Yao Xiuming was slapped hard!
The whole person rolled and flew out!
You can even clearly see two teeth flying out!
This scene happened so unexpectedly.
Especially for Chu Minrui and others, it shocked them greatly!
"Ancestor Haokong, what are you..."
Yao Xiuming lay on the ground, covering his mouth and not daring to get up.
At the same time, he couldn't understand why Patriarch Haokong suddenly slapped him in the face?
And still in full view of the public!
"What? You can't understand?"
Yao Haokong glanced at him lightly and said:
"Kowtow to outsiders and even lure wolves into the house... When did our Yao family become so downtrodden?!"
Yao Haokong's voice is not loud, but it is deafening.
"But, everything I do is for the Yao family!"
Yao Xiuming felt aggrieved, and out of composure, he yelled at Yao Haokong.
Yao Haokong looked at him deeply, feeling infinite disappointment in his heart.
Perhaps, if he had intervened in the Yao family's affairs earlier, the Yao family wouldn't be like this now, right?
He stopped looking at Yao Xiuming and turned to Chu Minrui and others.
At this moment, Chu Minrui and others suddenly felt a mountain of pressure, and everyone's bodies were trembling faintly!
You know, even the eighth-ranked Yao family, their two ancestors are both in the boundary-breaking realm!
Stepping into this realm means that it is possible to break the boundaries of the fairy world!
One can imagine how powerful the immortals at this level are!
"Hao...Senior Haokong."
Facing Yao Haokong's gaze, Chu Minrui swallowed hard, gritted his teeth, clasped his fists and said:
"We came here because we really want to become partners with the Yao family."
"I believe that Senior Haokong can also see the sincerity of our Chu family!" "Sincerity?"
Yao Haokong said calmly: "What your Chu family calls 'sincerity', is that you hope to be able to enter and leave other people's forbidden areas at will?"
"Then if it were the other way around, would you want others to enter and leave the Chu family's forbidden areas at will with so-called 'sincerity'?"
"..."
Chu Minrui was choked and didn't know how to reply.
They were fully prepared, but they never expected that Yao Haokong, one of the two ancestors of the Yao family, would show up to intervene at this time!
"After all this time, your Chu family still only uses this dirty trick of bullying others by relying on your own strength."
Yao Haokong's words immediately made Chu Minrui and others' faces turn blue and white.
What Yao Haokong said is indeed true.
so what?
The Chu family is already strong enough, so strong that even if a member of the Chu family causes trouble outside, they don’t have to worry about being held accountable by the other party!
And it is precisely because of their strength that the Chu family has been able to establish deep relationships with the other four inheritance families!
Otherwise, who would be willing to establish a cooperative relationship with you?
Of course, he didn't dare to say these words.
It is an unwise decision to anger any ancestor of a family.
"Since Senior Haokong is unwilling, then we will naturally respect Senior Haokong's wishes."
Chu Minrui took a step back: "Apart from the forbidden areas, we will only inspect those places outside the forbidden areas during our stay at Yao's house for a few days."
However, Yao Haokong's attitude was more determined than they imagined.
"Not even outside the forbidden area."
Yao Haokong looked at them indifferently and said, "I have said before that you are not welcome here."
"Don't you think that I am speaking out of anger?"
After the words fell, Chu Minrui and others suddenly felt the pressure on themselves, which obviously became a little heavier!
They all looked frightened and their whole bodies were trembling.
Some members of the Chu family even began to send messages asking Chu Minrui to give up the operation.
But Chu Minrui obviously didn't want to give up yet.
"Senior Haokong, this junior knows that doing this will offend the dignity of your Yao family."
"But this junior can also promise to make any compensation to the Yao family. As long as the Yao family wants it, my Chu family can give it to me!"
You know, they came here just for Ye Qingchen.
Now that the search has not even started, how can they return empty-handed?
"Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
Suddenly, ferocious lightning flashes appeared in Yao Haokong's pupils, which was terrifying and frightening.
A tyrannical aura spread instantly!
"Pfft!"
In just the blink of an eye, Chu Minrui and other members of the Chu family spurted blood instantly, and all of them couldn't help but kneel on the ground.
Naturally, Yao Yuanxiong and Yao Xiuming were not treated like this.
"If I didn't want to kill you personally for the sake of Chu Chuanxuan, the ancestor of your Chu family, do you still think that... with your attitude just now, you can survive until now?!"
Everyone could see that Yao Haokong was obviously angry.
Everyone in the Chu family was also trembling in fear, not daring to make any more mistakes.
However, Chu Minrui still gritted his teeth and said:
"Senior Haokong, for major events related to the future of the Yao family, another ancestor should be needed to express his attitude!"
The other ancestor he mentioned was Yao Huaqing, the ancestor of Yao Xiuming's faction!
If Yao Huaqing can support their side, then together with Yao Yuanxiong and Yao Xiuming, even if the original request cannot be achieved, they should still be able to obtain the freedom to search the Yao family's territory outside the forbidden area!
Unfortunately, his plan still failed!
After hearing his words, Yao Haokong snorted coldly, but instead of getting angry again, he changed his mouth and said:
"Let Hua Qing express his attitude? Yes."
As he said that, he turned his eyes to the side: "Come out, don't hide there anymore."
As soon as the words fell, everyone looked at him in shock.
An embarrassed-looking old man in red robe appeared there.
It is the second ancestor of the Yao family - Yao Huaqing!
Originally, Chu Minrui and Yao Xiuming should have been happy when they saw Yao Huaqing.
But Yao Haokong's words made them realize that Yao Huaqing had most likely changed his mind!
But with the idea of not daring to return empty-handed, Chu Minrui still bit the bullet and said:
"Senior Huaqing... do you support our Chu family's actions? Don't worry, if you don't enter the Chu family's forbidden area, we will only operate within the area outside the forbidden area!"
Hearing this, Yao Huaqing carefully glanced at Yao Haokong's face.
Seeing that Yao Haokong still had a cold face, Yao Huaqing sighed and said:
"Elder Chu, you should take your people and leave the Yao family."
"?!"
Like a bolt from the blue, Chu Minrui was stunned.
He couldn't believe it, and asked in a daze: "This, how is this possible..."
"Ancestor Huaqing, aren't you..."
"enough!"
With Yao Haokong here, how could Yao Huaqing dare to let Chu Minrui continue speaking, and shouted loudly to stop Chu Minrui's words:
"I told you to get out, so hurry up and get out!"
"From now on, our Yao family will never succumb to the Chu family! We will never cooperate with anyone!"
"The head of the family can clearly see this!"
At this moment, the focus of all eyes shifted to Yao Yuanxiong again.
As long as Yao Yuanxiong denies it, it means that the Yao family will still surrender to the Chu family's lust!
But if Yao Yuanxiong admits it, it means that this move is likely to push the Yao family to the opposite side of the Chu family!
"Master, don't do stupid things!"
Yao Xiuming was still in the dark and didn't want Yao Yuanxiong to give up what he saw as a great opportunity.
However, the development of things is always unexpected.
Yao Yuanxiong glanced at him indifferently.
That look in his eyes made him extremely unfamiliar.
Then he saw Yao Yuanxiong standing straightest and with the most irrefutable attitude, speaking to Chu Minrui and others:
"The attitude of Patriarch Haokong and Patriarch Huaqing is the attitude of my Yao family!"
"You, the Chu family, want to oppress our Yao family, so that we, the Yao family, will have to rely on you."
"Such methods are simply despicable!"
These words of Yao Yuanxiong made Chu Minrui and others unable to believe their ears.
What's going on? Isn't Yao Yuanxiong from Yao Xiuming's side?!
How could he also change his mind?!
"Ancestor Haokong, Ancestor Huaqing."
Yao Yuanxiong suddenly clasped his fists with both hands and saluted the two ancestors:
"Please ask the two ancestors to 'invite' them out so that they don't dirty the floor of the living room of my Yao family!"
