The core figures of the Ye family gathered together, and Ye Zhixuan, who rarely interfered with family affairs, also returned to the family in person to attend this meeting.
Ye Ningshuang and Ye Chenchen also have their own places in the conference room.
Standing at the head of the meeting was a fifty-year-old man with a boyish face and a strong temperament. He had a short beard and short hair and wore a suit and leather shoes. He was the contemporary patriarch of the Ye family, Ye Wenxuan.
Ye Zhixuan's eldest brother and Ye Ningshuang's grandfather.
He is already a hundred years old this year, but his appearance remains unchanged.
Next to Ye Wenxuan, including Ye Zhixuan, were eight people of the Xuan generation and eight brothers.
Even during holidays, some of the nine brothers are away in seclusion, some are training in the military, and some are serving in the sect, so they rarely get together.
But today, nine brothers gathered together, which shows that they attach great importance to this meeting.
As the youngest leader in the Mesozoic Era, Ye Chenchen used to have a certain say in meetings and could express his opinions at will, but today he was sitting at the back with a solemn expression and did not dare to interrupt at all.
Finally, Ye Wenxuan looked at Ye Zhixuan and said in a deep voice: "Lao Jiu, the other brothers have just come back and don't know much about the situation in the Imperial Capital."
"Tell me a little about the situation."
Ye Zhixuan nodded slightly, and immediately raised his hands to the eldest brothers: "Brothers, this time the eldest brother called us all back, there is only one thing."
Ye Zhixuan quickly explained Qin Fan's situation in general. Of course, Qin Fan's grudges with the Xia family's Confucianism were also explained clearly.
At the end, Ye Zhixuan said in a deep voice: "Today's meeting has two themes. Do you want to help Master Qin?"
"If I help, how?"
After the seventh brother heard this, his expressions became serious one after another, and the atmosphere in the conference room also became depressing.
Ye Wenxuan sat calmly and said in a deep voice: "Brothers, please tell me your opinions."
The meeting was silent for a moment, and the second child of the Ye family stood up and said with a cold face: "Although Master Qin has unlimited potential, I heard from Lao Jiu that during the encounter at Yulong Village, Master Qin did not have the courage to fight Xia Shenglong of the Xia family. It is basically certain that
Master Qin has no innate combat power."
"Helping Master Qin is tantamount to breaking up with the Xia family and Confucianism."
"The Xia family has been plotting to be the leader of the Martial Arts Temple for many years. It is basically certain that Xia Shenglong will be the next president of the Martial Arts Temple."
"When the time comes, Xia Shenglong's possession of the Martial Arts Temple will mean he has the qualifications to be on an equal footing with our Ye family."
"It's not worth it to become an enemy of the Ye family for the sake of Master Qin and Li Taishan's favor."
"I'm done."
After the second son of the Ye family objected, he sat down.
Immediately, four of the other six brothers of the Ye family stood up and supported the views of the second brother of the Ye family.
The third son of the Ye family followed the words of the second son of the Ye family and continued: "A centipede insect is dead but not stiff, let alone the Xia family, one of the four major families in the Imperial Capital."
"The Xia family has a lot of heritage. They sit in Yulongzhuang. Even if it declines, the decline is very limited. Twenty-five years ago, the boss of the Xia family controlled an 800,000-strong army in the north. In the end, he was imprisoned and died. The Xia family was just silent.
After ten years, I have regained my strength, thanks to Yulong Village."
"Because of the resources of Yulong Village, the Xia family can invite many powerful people to help, such as the three Confucian deities, who are enshrined by the Xia family."
"Our Ye family does not have the same heritage as Yulong Village. The heritage of our Ye family is our nine brothers. The momentum of the first family in Imperial Capital is also maintained by our nine old men."
"We are no longer young. The best of the next two generations are Ye Chenchen and Ye Ningshuang. They still need time."
"Now go head-to-head with the Xia family. If you lose, you should know what it means?"
"Irreversible destruction is the fate of the Ye family."
As the second eldest son of the Ye family and the third eldest son of the Ye family opened their mouths to set the tone of the discussion, the conference room became depressing.
Ye Wenxuan, the head of the Ye family, heard the words of his two younger brothers and immediately nodded solemnly: "That's what I mean too. Sitting on a mountain and watching tigers fight is more in line with the interests of our Ye family."
"Agree."
"Agree."
"good!"
"Big brother is wise."
The other brothers nodded.
Ye Zhixuan also frowned. He thought that persuading the family to help Master Qin would encounter a lot of resistance, but he did not expect that the resistance would be so great, with almost no room for negotiation.
Ye Zhixuan did not give up, and immediately said seriously: "Brothers, what you said makes sense."
"But, have you ever thought about it, if Master Qin dies in Tianmang Mountain and Xia Shenglong ascends to the throne of the Martial God Palace, can our Ye family still maintain its position as the first family in the Imperial Capital?"
"The Xia family already has Confucianism behind them, Xia Delong has already begun to come into contact with the power of the Witch God Religion, and Xia Shenglong has Buddhism behind him."
"In addition, the Xia family's uncle has a Taoist background. If he sits firmly on the Diaoyutai and has not taken action, Master Qin will already be in an extremely embarrassing situation, and the chances of success are high."
"If the Xia family is powerful, can Master Qin really be able to harm both the Xia family and the Xia family?"
As Ye Zhixuan followed his instructions, everyone in the conference room looked at Ye Zhixuan, but no one interrupted, seeming to expect him to continue speaking.
Seeing that there was no objection, Ye Zhixuan immediately said loudly: "In my opinion, sitting on a mountain and watching tigers fight will not be of any benefit to the Ye family."
"If we do nothing now and watch the Xia family's biggest enemy, Master Qin, being eliminated by them, and watch Xia Shenglong ascend to the throne of the Martial Arts Temple, integrate the world of martial arts and cultivation, and further grow, this will be a big blow to the Ye family.
Talk about slow death.”
Ye Ningshuang's blood boiled when she heard this. She couldn't help but stood up and continued: "What Grandpa Ninth said makes sense."
"Grandpas, you have just come back, so you may not know something."
"Master Qin is extremely powerful. Ningshuang has fought against her. To be honest, this person has extremely high cultivation talent. According to reliable information, he has thunder spirit roots, fire spirit roots, wood spirit roots, water spirit roots, earth spirit roots, and five elements.
The spiritual roots are gathered together. Whether it is talent or bones, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as shocking the past and the present."
"Ningshuang lost to him. Although his reputation was ruined, he was convinced of his defeat."
"Moreover, there is a Phoenix Mountain behind him, which is known as the No. 1 Spiritual Mountain in the world. It is unheard of to reach the late stage of foundation building at the age of eighteen. Give him another three to five years, and he may not have the opportunity to step into Xiantian."
"At that time, he alone was enough to defeat the Xia family, and with just a few clicks, he could eliminate the biggest competitor for our Ye family."
As soon as these words came out, the elders of the Xuan generation took their breaths seriously and began to think seriously.
Seeing the opportunity, Ye Zhixuan immediately continued: "In my opinion, the grudge between Master Qin and the Xia family is irresolvable, especially since Master Qin is married to Xia Qinglan, the eldest daughter of the Xia family, they will definitely investigate further.
The cause of death of Commander Xia that year."
"If they know that the boss of the Xia family has been framed, they will definitely destroy the Xia family."
"Furthermore, the Xia family's uncle was scheming. Fifty years ago, he had already begun to make arrangements for the Xia family, and brought Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism into the Xia family's camp. Only then did the Xia family prosper today. Chief Li Taishan has already
I’m starting to worry about the Xia family’s hidden dangers.”
"If we don't join forces with Master Qin, I'm afraid the eight ancient royal families will all come out and they won't be able to suppress the Xia family."
"So, driving away wolves and devouring tigers and reaping the benefits is the best policy, and it is in the interest of our Ye family."
Ye Wenxuan nodded: "What Lao Jiu said makes sense."
"What do you guys think?"
"If you don't have any objections, then just follow what Lao Jiu said."
The other seven brothers shook their heads and expressed no objection.
However, the third son of the Ye family stood up, pondered for a moment, and then said: "It's okay to help Master Qin, but there must be some benefits."
"I suggest that if Master Qin wants to survive, he should give half of the spiritual liquid produced by Phoenix Mountain in the next hundred years to the Ye family."
Ye Zhixuan's face froze slightly: "Will Master Qin agree?"
The third child of the Ye family smiled coldly and said: "Although the spiritual liquid is a priceless treasure and a sacred object of cultivation, if Master Qin is dead, what is the use of keeping the spiritual liquid?"
"Besides, the Ye family only needs half, which is not much."
"As long as Master Qin is not a fool, he must know how powerful it is and agree to our Ye family's conditions."
Everyone nodded.
Ye Ningshuang even volunteered and said: "Grandpas, leave it to Ningshuang to convince Master Qin."
"Ningshuang guarantees the completion of the mission."
