When the first elder spoke, he deliberately glanced at Huo Yulin, "Now that Master Feng is in poor health, the Huo family will not be without someone who can take charge of the overall situation, so after discussing with the elders, we plan to select from among the juniors. A qualified heir comes out."
"I will distribute the heir candidate list to everyone now, and the evaluation rules are also attached."
The Great Elder held a stack of papers and placed them in front of everyone one by one.
Huo Yulin slowly picked up the list.
There are five people on the list.
Except for him and Huo Wanying, the other three are collateral members of the Huo family, who are a round older than them.
"If everyone has no objection, this matter will be settled, and the first assessment will be conducted in two days." The elder said again.
Huo Yulin didn't continue to look at the evaluation rules behind the list. When he loosened his fingers, the list slid down on the table. He looked up at the elder, "I refuse."
After his words fell, everyone's eyes fell on him.
The First Elder seemed to have guessed that Huo Yulin would have objections, and his face was deliberately surprised, "Master Lin, I don't quite understand what you mean by refusing?"
"Master Feng is only recuperating temporarily. What qualifications do you have to discuss the matter of heirs?" Huo Yulin sneered, "The reason why you are able to sit here today is because of who, and you don't have any clues in your mind?"
The Great Elder was not ashamed by this remark, but followed his words and said, "Master Lin, why don't we know what you said? But if the century-old foundation of the Huo family is shaken, how can we be worthy of Master Feng?" A lifetime of dedication, don't you think?"
"What's more, it's just picking an heir now, and Feng Ye is still the head of the family. This has no effect on the Huo family."
"The Great Elder is right, we have to guard the Huo family for Lord Feng."
"This heir must be chosen."
Other people present began to echo, although some people have not yet stood in line, but in fact everyone is very clear in their hearts that the issue of the heir is indeed on the agenda.
They had all heard the news that Lord Feng might never wake up again.
Huo Yulin looked at the group of people who were talking expressionlessly, and understood that these people were deliberately provoked to make trouble.
He stood up with his hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, and said in a neither urgent nor slow voice, "You guys want to choose an heir, yes, when Master Feng comes back, he will choose himself."
"In fact, everyone already knows what's going on with Master Feng." The First Elder raised his head, met Huo Yulin's eyes, and said, "So you don't have to delay, Young Master Lin. There is no need to change the matter of the heir."
Huo Yulin's eyes were cold.
But at this moment, Huo Wanying, who hadn't spoken, also stood up, her whole body showing a forceful aura, "I'm sorry to interrupt, but I also refuse."
As soon as her words came out, the Great Elder frowned, as if he didn't expect Huo Wanying to say this, it was obviously in her best interest to choose an heir!
Didn't Huo Qing mention it to Huo Wanying in advance
The Great Elder couldn't help but glanced at Huo Qing.
Huo Qing was actually a little dazed at this moment, ignoring the gaze cast by the elder, and hurriedly said: "Wan Ying, why are you messing around with me?"
Huo Wanying turned her head to look at Huo Qing, her expression was quite calm, and she said: "I am not rejecting the selection of heirs proposed by the elders, but I think this list is not fair."
