Deep in the Ye family manor, in the spacious hall.
The leaders of many forces were sitting on both sides, with at least one person standing behind them.
And these people are all elite and powerful people they brought with them. Regarding the Ye family's arrangements this time, and some gossip they heard before, they feel that the next so-called banquet will not be too peaceful.
Even if he trusts Ye Congyun, he is not his family after all.
On the main seat, Ye Congyun sat upright, looking at the people below with a smile on his face.
And below it, on the right hand side, Ye Liurong is sitting quietly with his eyes slightly closed, as if he is asleep.
"Everyone, wait a moment. I have already ordered you to go down. The drinks and dishes will be ready soon." Ye Congfeng stood in front of his seat and cupped his hands to everyone.
"Haha, it doesn't matter."
"You're welcome, Mr. Ye."
After hearing Ye Congfeng's words, everyone responded politely. Only Liu Wuhui and Bai Lingzhou closed their eyes, just like Ye Liurong, as if they had fallen asleep.
"Everyone, please feel free to do it."
After Ye Congfeng's words fell, some of the people stood up and looked around in the spacious hall, and some others also started talking to each other.
As everyone laughed and chatted, time passed quickly, and the long-awaited food and drinks were gradually prepared, and Ye Congfeng greeted everyone to sit down.
During the banquet, there were people drinking and drinking, and laughter and chatter continued. It seemed that many forces in the entire Fengtian City were gathered together and having a good time.
But no one here dared to relax in any way.
Because underneath this seemingly friendly laughter, there is an undercurrent.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone was a little drunk. Since they didn't use their spiritual power to dispel the drunkenness, everyone was a little confused.
But under this situation, Ye Congyun, who had drank a lot of wine with everyone, returned to the main seat.
Seeing this, everyone put down their wine glasses and looked at Ye Congyun.
"Thank you very much for being able to attend the banquet. In fact, besides the clan competition today, I have one more thing to discuss with you."
coming!
When everyone heard this, they were all shocked, and they were almost half drunk. Sure enough, the Ye family must have a plan this time.
"Recently, our Ye family has had internal discussions and plans to build an organization similar to an alliance. I hope everyone can participate. After all, although our Fengtian City has many forces, big and small, they are all scattered."
"The overall strength is much worse than that of several surrounding counties and cities, so I hope that everyone can unite to fight against external forces. After all, the next 'Lingshan Festival' is not far away. If you want to get enough benefits,
, you may wish to consider this suggestion of mine." Ye Congyun sat in the main seat and said in a calm voice.
After his words fell, the expressions of many leaders of forces changed slightly. Naturally, they were no strangers to the 'Lingshan Festival'.
This is the empire's method to enhance competition among counties. Just by participating, you can obtain a large number of spiritual stones, not to mention the various heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the Lingshan Mountain, and the treasures left by the predecessors.
Going there means making a lot of money. Of course, the premise is that you can come back alive, because the Lingshan Mountain where the 'Lingshan Festival' is located not only has a lot of opportunities, but also has dangers that ordinary people can't imagine.
And every time Fengtian County participates in the Lingshan Festival, the results are disastrous. As the power of Fengtian County's main city, they will lose a lot of people every time. They are very aware of the dangers involved.
Therefore, they did not immediately refute Ye Congyun's suggestion.
"As long as you join the organization, everyone is one. Any benefits will be distributed according to merit. If any party is in difficulty, the organization will provide support."
"With the strength of our Fengtian County, the power of all the forces united must be extremely amazing. I think we can get certain resources even in the Lingshan Festival. Therefore, the alliance is a pretty good one for everyone.
It's your choice." Ye Congyun looked at the silent people in the hall, and then said.
In the hall, the silence continued for a while again. After a while, some smaller forces finally chose to join. Their strength was weak and they were not worth mentioning compared to big families like the Ye family. They joined Ye Congyun’s so-called organization, saying
Maybe you can get more resources.
With the agreement of these forces, the leaders of other forces also chose to join after hesitating for a while.
As for the joining of these forces, Liu Wuhui and Bai Lingzhou did not make any move, watching all of this quietly, as if the things in front of them had nothing to do with them.
In fact, they were a little uneasy in their hearts. Liu Wuhui felt secretly in his heart. Although he was dissatisfied with Ye Congyun's behavior, he felt that the matter was not that simple, so he did not say anything.
As for Bai Lingzhou, he was a little unsure of the Ye family's plan at this time. Was this Ye Congyun's idea or Ye Liurong's?
Ye Congyun naturally didn't know what they were thinking. Seeing that many people in the audience agreed, he also had a look of satisfaction on his face.
"Master Ye, since you want us all to join the organization, then I wonder... who will be the leader of this organization?"
Just when everyone was discussing whether to join, a voice suddenly sounded. When everyone heard the words, they all turned to look at the person who spoke.
This man was dressed in green clothes, he looked handsome and resolute, he was about thirty years old, and he had a heavy look of doubt on his face.
After seeing this person clearly, everyone turned their attention to Ye Congyun. They also wanted to hear Ye Congyun's answer.
"Haha, brother Li, please don't misunderstand. Since this organization has been established, it belongs to everyone, so the position of leader is naturally recommended by everyone." Ye Congyun looked at the man in green and smiled.
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the head of the Ye family had no intention of annexing them.
"Since the head of the Ye family has already planned for today's events, he must have some recommendations for the position of leader, right?" The man in green surnamed Li spoke up again.
Hearing this, Ye Congyun frowned, and everyone else looked at him, wanting to hear what he had to say.
Ye Congyun pondered for a moment and said slowly: "This organization is jointly established by many forces in Fengtian City. As the leader, he must be highly respected and not only powerful, but also have certain qualifications and prestige. Therefore, I
I think it’s better to choose among the elders of various clans.”
As soon as his words came out, everyone had different expressions. The elders of each clan?
Strength and prestige coexist?
Isn't that an obvious choice among the elders of the three major families?
Among the elders of the three major families, it is hard to say who is the strongest, but if we say who has the highest prestige, it must be Ye Liurong.
Ye Liurong is at odds with his own family, but he has always been friendly and enthusiastic to the outside world. His prestige in the entire Fengtian City is almost unmatched by anyone. Of course, this is the result of his many years of hard work.
The elder of the Bai family, whose strength is comparable to that of Ye Liurong, is not in the family and has already gone to the royal city. As for Liu Tianfeng, although he is strong enough, he has a withdrawn and indifferent temperament, and outsiders are not familiar with him at all.
So at the moment, only Ye Liurong met such conditions. Everyone thought in their minds and finally turned their attention to Ye Liurong.
It's not that there are no more powerful people in Fengtian County, but the powerful ones are all in the academy or the city lord's mansion. Among the remaining family forces, Ye Liurong seems to be the most suitable one at the moment.
And Ye Liurong felt the gazes of everyone, and opened his slightly closed eyes, with a smile on his face, stood up, raised his hands to everyone and said: "If you think I am qualified, then I will be disrespectful. If..."
"Elder Ye, you don't have to say anything. I have no objection to you being the leader!"
Before Ye Liurong finished speaking, he was interrupted. However, Ye Liurong was not angry when he heard the words, but there was a hint of approval in his eyes. He was really a guy who knew current affairs.
As the voice fell, several more people agreed, all agreeing that Ye Liurong should be the leader.
At this time, everyone's expressions were a little strange. With their eyesight, they couldn't tell that those guys had secretly taken refuge with Ye Liurong.
"Haha, if you are not at ease, then please choose someone else." Ye Liurong smiled faintly, held his hands in front of everyone again, and then sat down.
Seeing this, everyone was stunned for a moment. They couldn't figure out what kind of medicine the other party was selling in the gourd. Did they guess wrong? The other party really had no intention of becoming the leader?
When everyone was confused, someone spoke up again, saying that the position of leader must be Ye Liurong.
But when these people were talking, everyone was shocked by Ye Congyun's words and became a little confused.
"Great Elder, everyone respects you so much, why don't you just accept them."
Everyone was a little unbelievable when they heard Ye Congyun's words. They were also from Fengtian City, and they also knew some of the situation of the Ye family relatively well.
Ye Congyun and Ye Liurong have been at odds with each other for more than a day or two. If he pretends to be friendly in front of outsiders, they may still believe it, but if Ye Congyun recommends Ye Liurong as the leader, they will never believe it.
However, after Ye Liurong heard Ye Congyun's words, he also showed a smile, stood up, cupped his hands to Ye Congyun who was on the main seat and said: "I don't dare to occupy this position of leader, I'd better let the capable person
Let’s be human.”
Hearing this, Ye Congyun seemed to frown, looked at the people in the hall and said, "What do you think?"
Everyone looked at Ye Congyun, trying to see something in his eyes. They wondered what the Ye family wanted to do?
"Look, everyone has no objections. Great Elder, please don't refuse." Seeing that everyone was staring at him without making a sound, Ye Congyun cupped his hands towards Ye Liurong, and then left the main seat directly.
Seeing this scene, the leaders of the forces present were even more surprised. They all wondered if they had seen it wrong.
"Haha, the master of the house is so flattering, what do you think?" Ye Liurong smiled slightly and asked everyone present.
Everyone was silent.
Bai Lingzhou sat aside, frowning slightly. He was a little dissatisfied with Ye Liurong's behavior, but considering the relationship between the two families, he did not say anything.
Although Liu Wuhui was a little reluctant, looking at the silence of everyone present, he did not say anything and decided to wait and see.
"Haha, since everyone has no objections, I can just sit here for now."
Seeing that no one said anything for a long time, Ye Liurong smiled slightly, cupped his hands to everyone, and then walked to the high seat and prepared to sit down.
However, before he could sit down, a voice came from outside.
"I think you should wait a moment."
Hearing this voice, Ye Liurong's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes suddenly darkened.
