Yuanzu was known as the Iron-Blooded Sword. He acted tough and had an outspoken personality.
I have three hobbies in my life: beautiful women, smoking, and killing people.
Ever since Yuan Zuzheng took charge of the Yuan family, the Yuan family's external attitude has become more ferocious.
Over the past few decades, the reputation of the Yuan family has become much worse, all thanks to Yuan Zuzheng.
To be honest, Yuan Ansheng was in awe of Yuan Zuzheng, but he did not agree with his father's approach.
For a thousand-year-old family, the most important things are stability and order.
Because order is most beneficial to the family. Disrupting order can gain short-term benefits, but it is destroying the foundation of the family.
But it’s not his turn to make the decision regarding the Yuan family’s affairs.
Yuan Ansheng also knew that his father had always looked down on him, but he admired Yuan Hao's style.
Therefore, Yuanzuzheng would make an exception and come to the mourning hall to take a look.
In Yuan Ansheng's heart, Yuan Zuzheng has always been a mountain. He also knows that Yuan Zuzheng is a level 10 master, has completed the genetic sequence evolution, and has a longer lifespan than him.
The position of the head of the Yuan family would never be his turn. In the future, it would only be passed on to the third generation, or even to the outstanding children of the fourth or fifth generation.
But, Yuan Zuzheng, the Iron-Blooded Sword Master and the head of the Yuan family, died right in front of him!
Yuan Ansheng was stunned for several seconds. He almost thought he was dreaming, or his father was playing a bad joke on him!
But he quickly realized that this was not a prank. This was all real.
Although Yuan Zuzheng has a bad temper, he would not make such a low-level joke.
"Father is dead!"
Yuan Ansheng was not sad after being shocked. He was very calm. As the first heir to the head of the Yuan family, he automatically became the head of the family from that moment on.
However, he did not have enough prestige in the family because his father was too strong.
Therefore, what he should do most now is to control the information and take control of the situation.
Yuan Ansheng was cautious by nature, but he was smart and quick to react, and he immediately realized that this was his chance to rise to power.
As for the murderer of his father, it was obviously Blood Shadow. This is probably what Wei Yue wanted to express.
Yuan Ansheng suddenly understood that Wei Yue asked him to contact his father just now because he wanted him to see this scene!
This is scary because the other party has to monitor his communication status at all times.
Just this one thing showed Wei Yue's terrifying strength.
Moreover, Wei Yue must have known that his father had a tough attitude and would not negotiate, so he killed his father directly.
One is to warn him, and the other is to give him a chance to get promoted.
The hatred between father and son is a deep blood feud.
But Yuan Ansheng was only thinking about the position of the head of the family at this moment, and how to get to the position smoothly.
As for the hatred, we can wait until he takes power to resolve it.
The order of priority must not be mistaken.
Yuan Ansheng figured it out, and he immediately contacted his father's driver and ordered him to take the convoy to the old house immediately.
All personnel must strictly keep confidentiality and are not allowed to leave without permission. Communication with each other is not allowed.
Yuan Ansheng does not have enough prestige at home, but he is responsible for presiding over daily affairs, holds a lot of power, and controls many people.
He called Yuanbao in and asked him to gather all the people back immediately and then take them to the old house.
Yuan Bao was confused. Gao Xuan wasn't going to be killed? The funeral wasn't going to be held
Yuan Ansheng still trusted this confidant very much, and Yuan Bao could only succeed by following him.
"What?" Yuanbao was so scared that his eyeballs were about to pop out, and his little eyes were wide open.
"Calm down, it was Blood Shadow who killed him. I saw it with my own eyes just now during the video. There is no doubt about it."
Yuan Ansheng was particularly calm at this moment, "It's obviously Wei Yue's trick."
Yuanbao trembled a little: "Then, what should we do now?"
"What are you afraid of? My dad is already dead. We can't mess around. We need to do the rest of the work well."
Yuan Ansheng said calmly: "Go and control my father's team. Don't let the news leak out. I will go find my third uncle and fourth uncle. As long as they are willing to support me, no one can compete with me for the position of head of the family."
He was the legitimate first-in-line heir, but he lacked prestige and it was difficult for him to convince others.
He would be embarrassed if there was a dispute at a family meeting.
His third and fourth uncles were both very capable and held great power. Moreover, they had a good relationship.
Yuan Zuzheng was too strong, and no one in the family liked him. Especially those at the center of power, the stronger Yuan Zuzheng was, the more others gave in.
Yuan Ansheng has a very good relationship with other elders because of his cautious personality and his adherence to rules.
He also believed that his third and fourth uncles would prefer him to take the position. If his second uncle took the position, it would not be a good thing for these two.
Yuan Ansheng was very proactive at this time. He briefly discussed the action plan with Yuan Bao and then they immediately went their separate ways.
Yuan Bao, who led the team to the ancestral home, realized at this time that he had underestimated Yuan Ansheng.
This young master, who had always been timid and cautious in his actions, was surprisingly calm, even a little cold, at the critical moment.
Yuan Bao's heart trembled a little when he thought of this. Was he too casual with this young master on weekdays
However, this is really a good opportunity. If Yuan Ansheng can get promoted, he will immediately rise to become the chief steward of the Yuan family.
The benefits here are huge.
Yuan Bao didn't think about Xue Ying and Wei Yue anymore. These people were not important. It wouldn't be too late to consider them after they got the position of the head of the family.
After Yuan Zu Zhengyi died, Yuan Ansheng was busy seizing power and had no time to pay attention to anything else.
Wei Yue was greatly relieved when she got the news about Xueying. She actually roughly guessed what Xueying was going to do.
After all, Xueying had done this many times in Mingjing City, directly beheading the enemy's leaders.
No matter how big a force is, it will be in chaos without a leader. Moreover, because the force is so big and there are many factions within it, if the leader loses control, they will have to readjust their interests.
Like the Fang family and the SHIELD Group, they all collapsed because of being beheaded and lost their ability to resist.
But, was it so easy for Xueying to kill Yuan Zuzheng
This guy is known as the Iron-Blooded Sword, and he calls himself the best swordsman in Zhongjing!
Of course, this was just Yuan Zuzheng's self-proclaimed name. The Yuan family was so powerful that no one would openly oppose Yuan Zuzheng.
Even if Yuan Zuzheng's title of the number one swordsman is exaggerated, he is not to be trifled with.
As a result, he was easily killed by Blood Shadow.
Wei Yue felt that Blood Shadow was getting stronger and stronger, and his methods were becoming more cruel.
However, the Yuan family has a very deep foundation. Once the Yuan family realizes this, they will never let this matter go so easily.
Wei Yue was deeply worried about this, and she also communicated with Xueying and told him about her concerns.
Gao Xuan replied: "I will take care of it."
Gao Xuan asked Wei Yue to come forward because he was sure of his success.
As the Heavenly Demon Relics gathered more and more spiritual power, they were also stimulated to develop many wonderful abilities.
The simplest point is that the demon relic can greatly enhance Gao Xuan's spiritual power.
This amplitude fluctuates with the spiritual power absorbed by the demon relic. The stronger the spiritual power absorbed, the greater the increase.
The current demon relic can probably help increase his spiritual power by about 30%. This is an amazing increase.
You have to know that Gao Xuan's spiritual power is at the golden energy level. In a place like Pegasus, his spiritual power is enough to surpass the rest of the world and he has no rivals at all.
His powerful spiritual power allows him to travel hundreds of thousands of kilometers away and condense into an incarnation.
The enhancement of the demon's relic has greatly increased Gao Xuan's spiritual power.
His mind roamed in all directions, and through the feedback of various emotional powers absorbed by the Heavenly Demon Relics, he was even able to find the relevant people.
For example, Yuan Ansheng, and Yuan Zuzheng was found in Yuan Ansheng.
After locking onto Yuan Zuzheng's position, Gao Xuan's spiritual clone controlled the God-Slaying Sword and easily killed Yuan Zuzheng with one strike.
It’s not that the original ancestor is not capable, but that the spiritual clone is invisible and traceless, and only when he takes action will he manifest himself as a bloody clone.
The six-winged cicada suppressed all of Yuan Zuzheng's senses, and was stabbed in the back by Gao Xuan's sword. Yuan Zuzheng had no way to dodge. Moreover, the characteristics of the sword also eliminated any possibility of Yuan Zuzheng's resurrection.
The Yuan family is so huge that killing only one Yuan Zuzheng is certainly not enough.
It doesn’t matter. Gao Xuan will let the other party know how terrible the consequences of going against him are.
Gao Xuan didn't need to follow Yuan Ansheng. He could lock onto the other party with the Heavenly Demon Relics and sense the other party's emotional changes.
This extremely secret connection did not pass through the source of power, nor did it involve direct spiritual power fluctuations. Even a level 10 swordsman would find it difficult to detect, let alone Yuan Ansheng and his ilk.
Gao Xuan stayed in the room, sitting back and watching the show.
However, Jiang Xuejun and Wei Zhenzhen were worried about Gao Xuan's safety, so they formed a group to visit him.
Because they were worried about Gao Xuan's safety, they were both very enthusiastic. Fortunately, Gao Xuan was not a pushover.
While Gao Xuan was fighting passionately, Yuan Ansheng was running around.
The Yuan family is very powerful, with more than ten elders, and each one of them is very important.
However, most of them are from side branches and are not eligible to compete for the position of head of the family.
Yuan Ansheng talked to his third uncle and fourth uncle one by one, and got their promise as he wished.
Next, he went on to visit several other elders with whom he was close.
By the evening, the news finally spread.
As soon as Yuan Ansheng returned to the old house, he saw his second uncle and five elders waiting for him.
The main hall of the old house is very grand, and family meetings are often held here. The layout of the main hall is like a conference room.
At the top is the main seat for the head of the family, and the other seats are arranged on both sides. They are all traditional official hat chairs, and small coffee tables separate the seats.
There are many vermilion pillars in the hall, and the floor is covered with quaint green tiles.
There is no modern equipment in the main hall. The pillars, floors, and even the glazed tiles on the roof are all made of special materials to shield all wireless signals.
There is also a special object in the center of the underground hall that can block spiritual power.
Meetings held in this hall will never be overheard by outsiders. If there is a leak, it must be from an insider.
Now, Yuan Zuguang brought four elders to block Yuan Ansheng.
"Ansheng, this is not right. Your father was assassinated, and the first thing to do is to catch the murderer."
Yuan Zuguang and Yuan Zuzheng look 50% similar, but he lacks Yuan Zuzheng's domineering aura and looks more restrained.
However, he has a very high prestige in the Yuan family. In terms of both martial arts and strategic ability, he is actually much stronger than Yuan Zuzheng.
But under Yuan Zuzheng's suppression, Yuan Zuguang could only be the second in command. The rules of the family did not allow him to do anything wrong.
If he breaks the rules, no one will support him.
Yuan Zuguang had originally accepted his fate, but when Yuan Zuzheng was assassinated, he saw an opportunity.
Yuan Ansheng is the first heir, and normally he would succeed to the throne as the head of the family.
Therefore, Yuan Zuguang could not allow Yuan Ansheng to succeed to the throne normally. He was determined to catch the murderer first.
If Yuan Ansheng fails to catch the murderer, it proves that he is not qualified to be the head of the family.
If Yuan Ansheng caught the murderer, he would think of other ways.
In short, we need to delay time and not let Yuan Ansheng succeed.
Yuan Zuguang spoke righteously and sternly, and as he was the elder, he scolded Yuan Ansheng harshly.
Yuan Ansheng was weak, and Yuan Zuguang's cultivation was much higher than his. He could only endure being scolded.
In the end, Yuan Ansheng was forced to temporarily agree to catch the murderer first.
After Yuan Zuguang and others left with satisfaction, Yuan Ansheng sat dejectedly in the main seat and sighed deeply.
He planned everything, but in the end he was too weak and was not qualified to compete head-on with Yuan Zuguang.
"Mr. Yuan, I can help you solve your problem..."
A blood-red figure, seemingly real and unreal, appeared silently in front of Yuan Ansheng.
Yuan Ansheng was horrified, his mouth opened wide and he almost screamed out.
"Don't be afraid, I'm a good person who likes to help others."
The blood shadow is ethereal and mysterious, and the sound is also ethereal and unpredictable.
Yuan Ansheng found it extremely absurd that Xueying actually called himself a good person. Damn, are there still bad people in this world
