Wearing a bright kimono, Aoki Yui gently clicked on the shoji door. After getting the answer, she opened the door and Shi Shiran entered, bowing to the head of the family and the six clan elders: "Sorry, I'm late."
She has a delicate face and rosy cheeks, which is completely different from the pale complexion when she returned to the family. She put on light makeup in the car, and it was rude to attend a high-level family meeting with a sickly look.
Etiquette has always been an important item for blood families in the island country.
The family head and clan elders were just talking about the fall of Emperor Iwasaki. As a family that had both prosperity and loss with the official organization, the family head and clan elders were deeply worried.
It sounded like there was no intention to stop talking in a short time. Yui Aoki knelt down at the end and listened quietly.
"With the loss of Emperor Iwasaki, how can the official organization fight against the Tenjin Shrine?" A clan elder expressed a worried expression.
"It is indeed a pity to lose Emperor Iwasaki, but Tenjin Shrine also doesn't have a master of half-step Ji Dao." Another clan elder said.
"Then how do you explain Iwasaki Teito's death?"
"This is exactly the point why the official organization summoned us," Daisuke Aoki coughed, with a strange look on his face: "It is said that someone saw an unparalleled fighting spirit in Kabukicho."
this... ..
The clan elders looked at each other silently, their expressions becoming more solemn. They had known about this for a long time, but they all tacitly avoided talking about it. This was because once the situation was confirmed, the situation would become particularly difficult.
No one, no force is willing to become an enemy with the unparalleled fighting spirit.
Even if a master at the pinnacle of the Jida can be killed, he will pay an immeasurable price. The Quanzhen Rebellion caused by the demon Wangchen is the best example.
Even though the Chinese blood community has been inherited for thousands of years, with a large family and a deep foundation, it took several generations to regain its strength.
The Taoist sect has been in a state of withering talent until now. In more than eighty years, only one Taoist Master has emerged, and he died half a year ago.
If the opponent is an unparalleled fighting spirit, the blood community of the island country cannot withstand such consumption. The official organization estimates that they can only negotiate for peace and then "abdicate."
"Did the heir of the Li family really collude with Tianjin Shrine? When did he come to the island country?" The gray-haired clan elder gritted his teeth: "Damn it."
"This matter needs to be confirmed. The official organization has sent an email to consult Baoze. I believe we will get a reply tomorrow." Daisuke Aoki pressed his hand and signaled the elders to be calm.
Aoki Yui's brows jumped when he heard this. People from the official organization actually suspected that Li Xianyu and the Wushuang Spirit killed Teito Iwasaki. Do they have no brains
After thinking about it, I felt that it was normal. The official organization did not know the existence of the ancient demon, and knew nothing about the fact that its enemy was the ancient demon.
It is understandable that Teito Iwasaki did not disclose it to anyone, because if he knew that his opponent was an ancient demon, many families would secretly turn against him and join the Tenjin Shrine.
Moreover, even Emperor Iwasaki was not sure about the existence of the ancient demon before the Panshin Palace was opened.
As for the green master's flesh and blood substance that can greatly enhance the blood descendants, although official organizations have become wary of the mutations of senior cadres of the Tenjin Shrine and have noticed it, they do not know the inside story.
Bao Ze knew about this, but the two sides were superficial allies, unlike the official organization of the island country and the Super Power Association of the United States, which wore the same pants.
It is impossible for Baoze to share confidential information with the island country.
If Li Xianyu hadn't confessed to me earlier, I might have thought that the unparalleled fighting spirit killed Teito Iwasaki, and that Li Xianyu secretly cooperated with Tenjin Shrine.
"I think it's impossible. Do you remember the Soul-Destroying Alliance of the Ten Thousand Gods Palace?" A rational clan elder analyzed: "The Sakurai family has a big feud with Li Xianyu, so it is impossible for him to join the Tianjin Shrine."
The second uncle was indeed the IQ leader of the Aoki family when he was young... Aoki Yui is sincerely happy. There are still many people with online IQs in the family, and I believe there are also official organizations.
"Yui, do you have anything to report?" After the chat, Daisuke Aoki remembered the topic of this family meeting, looked at Yui Aoki, and asked.
The clan elders all looked at it.
Aoki Yui did not speak immediately, but thought about it first. After the death of Emperor Iwasaki, it was no longer possible for official organizations to compete with the Tenjin Shrine.
Just imagine, at this time, if the ancient demon makes a grand appearance, many blood descendant families will definitely switch sides and join the Tianjin Shrine.
If the official organization wants to continue to fight, it must have a leader and a master who can compete with the ancient demon.
Li Xianyu is a good candidate. He has enough strength to fight against the ancient demon. Although he is not from the island country's blood community, there should be no problem if he just acts as a temporary leader.
Currently, the official organization suspects that the murderer of Teito Iwasaki was Li Xianyu. It is not difficult to clarify this matter, but it is not easy either, because if the ancient demon never shows up, then Li Xianyu has no evidence of self-proof.
With the support of the Aoki family, his voice will increase. With the Aoki family's connections in official organizations, he can lobby other families and play an important role. But I am not the head of the family, nor the elder of the clan, so I have to convince them.
"Head of the family, fellow clan elders, Yui went to do something big tonight. Last night Li Xianyu and I went to Kabukicho, where we witnessed the fall of senior Iwasaki Teito. Li Xianyu was indeed involved in this matter, but I guarantee with the reputation of the Aoki family that he was not the murderer of Iwasaki-senpai. On the contrary, he and Iwasaki-senpai were comrades fighting side by side, and the enemy they faced together was the ancient demon..." Yui Aoki said. A serious expression conveys confidential information.
The conference room fell into an eerie silence. The clan elders and the head of the family looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
Aoki Yui paused for more than ten seconds to give them enough time to digest. Just as she was about to continue, Aoki Daisuke raised her hand to interrupt her: "Please bean sack, please explain first, "You and Li Xianyu went to Kabukicho." This sentence."
Daisuke Aoki rubbed his eyebrows, wondering if he and Yui Aoki lived in the same world.
In his world, the battle between the Tenjin Shrine and the official organization is just a battle between the blood descendants of the country, and there are not so many fancy inside stories.
But according to Aoki Yui's words, Li Xianyu and Wushuang Fighting Spirit were involved unknowingly. In addition, he also heard about the ancient demon.
She just talked about the ancient demon, right
But what confused him the most was that from Yui's tone, it seemed that he had known that Li Xianyu was in the island country for a long time, and he still acted with him
The clan elders looked at their patriarch with relief, wondering if he could accurately find the key points in a series of unclear and harsh remarks.
Aoki Yui pursed her lipsticked lips and said, "Actually, actually... Li Peiyun is Li Xianyu."
what are you doing
All the stiff faces looked at Yui Aoki.
She just said that Li Peiyun is the heir of the Li family? !
How could Li Peiyun be a descendant of the Li family? Li Peiyun is our Aoki family's unofficial son-in-law. The three-talented swordsmanship belongs to our Aoki family, and the pillars of the Half-step Ji Dao also belong to our Aoki family.
Li Peiyun, a jade tree facing the wind, is serious and serious, a dignified gentleman... How virtuous and capable is that prodigal Li Xianyu! !
I absolutely do not accept this reality... Daisuke Aoki raised his glass tremblingly and took a sip of sake: "Yui, don't joke, this is a family meeting and it is a very serious place."
I'll give you a chance to withdraw what you just said.
"Yes, the Li Peiyun you saw is Li Xianyu in disguise." Yui Aoki's voice was soft but firm.
"I don't believe it." A clan elder slammed the table angrily.
Aoki Yui looked over and recognized him as the clan elder who came with Daisuke Aoki when they were soaking in the hot spring that day.
"There is another evidence to prove," Yui Aoki hesitated slightly, "Li Xianyu has fused the remains of the succubus, and has his own charm power. Don't you and the head of the family also think that he is very lovable and unbearable?" Don’t you want to get closer?”
She was alluding to the fact that while soaking in the hot spring, the family head and elders approached Li Xianyu intentionally or unintentionally and made physical contact with him.
"..."
"..."
Daisuke Aoki and the clan elder looked at each other silently, as if they could see the tears in each other's eyes.
At this point, Li Xianyu's identity has been basically determined, and there is no need to continue arguing.
"What is the ancient demon you are talking about? There are ancient demons in our island country? Iwasaki Teito's death is related to the ancient demon?" Daisuke Aoki asked.
"It's a long story..."
Aoki Yui told the family head and clan elders everything she knew. Including the existence of the Lord of the Palace of the Gods, the existence of the ancient demon, and the information that the fruit they are fighting for is about to mature.
These secrets are something you only know if you know them. If you don’t know them, no one will take the initiative to tell you.
Even if a force like the Aoki family knew about these things, they actually didn't have the capital to intervene.
Of course, she concealed Li Xianyu's time retrieval. This was an absolute secret that no one could reveal.
This time, the senior members of the Aoki family were completely shocked. They didn't come to their senses for a long time. When they finally came to their senses, no one spoke.
Aoki Yui looked at the faces of the family head and clan elders, and knew their psychological activities at this time. What they wanted to retreat from was to remove themselves from this storm.
"Master, everyone, Emperor Iwasaki has fallen. Now the only people in the island country who can compete with the ancient demon are the descendants of the Li family and the unparalleled fighting spirits. This is our country, our territory, and the Aoki family has no reason to retreat." Yui Aoki couldn't help but He straightened his back and said with awe-inspiring righteousness: "Yuii believes that the family should cooperate with the heirs of the Li family to deal with the ancient demon together."
"We still don't know whether what you said is true or false." A clan elder said solemnly.
"If it's fake, then the family won't suffer any loss, right?" Yui Aoki said calmly.
"However, if there really is an ancient demon in the world and it is our enemy, the Aoki family should seek advantages and avoid disadvantages instead of fighting to the death with it." Daisuke Aoki said after careful consideration.
"It took the Aoki family decades to get through the trough, and finally earned back the current family business. Is the head of the family willing to give up? Decades or hundreds of years later, the history of the family will be recorded. The Aoki family is in your hands. Your hands are weak because you acted like a coward and gave up the power to protect the interests of the family and handed over the family's inheritance to others."
Daisuke Aoki opened his mouth, speechless.
I wanted to scold Yui Aoki, but I found that the eyes of the clan elders were all fixed on me.
As the head of the family, even if the clan elders express cowardice, he cannot openly follow his heart. This will make people feel that he is not responsible as the head of the family, which will affect his reputation and image.
Just like the ancient emperors who were addicted to abalone, attacked late at night, and delayed state affairs, the ministers would also pass the responsibility to women, saying that Your Majesty is right, it is all the fault of beauty.
It can be seen that image is important and reputation is important.
The emperor who issued the imperial edict was a poor man who had lost all face.
Daisuke Aoki does not want to become the head of the Aoki family who has committed crimes against himself in the history of the family.
The second uncle coughed and said, "Let's do this. Let's look at the situation first. We will not give in until it is absolutely necessary. What Yui said makes sense. If the heir of the Li family can help the official organization fight against the ancient demon, we will support him for the time being. Why not? Our home is ours, and so is our country."
"Of course, the family head's concerns are reasonable. It is precisely because the Aoki family has finally managed to build this family business that it should be cherished. Therefore, my suggestion is to continue to fight, but secretly transfer some of the family assets overseas. Don't put all your eggs in one basket. What a simple truth.”
The second uncle cast a pleased look at Yui Aoki.
Unknowingly, the little girl finally grew up and gradually showed her unique style.
Aoki Yui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like Zhuge Kongming in Chinese history, fighting with the Confucian scholars.
At this time, a clan elder asked: "I have another question."
Aoki Yui immediately straightened her body, with a serious face, ready to receive the opponent's verbal attack.
"You and Li Xianyu... had a relationship?" The clan elder's eyes were burning.
"..." Yui Aoki opened his mouth, and his burning fighting spirit was extinguished by a bucket of cold water. He thought that ginger is still hot when he is old, so he can seal his throat with a sword.
I am still a pure and beautiful girl, and I have not been tainted by the descendants of ghosts and beasts at all.
Aoki Yui wanted to wave her hand, but something moved in her heart. She knew very well what the family head and clan elders thought. Even though these old guys were very satisfied with Li Peiyun and scorned Li Xianyu, in fact, they belonged to the "really fragrant" group. people.
If they hooked up with Li Xianyu instead of Li Peiyun, they would be very happy and excited. And had the absurd thought "Maybe true love is invincible."
Or a bold thought like "Only my Yui can give birth to a child."
Although the heir of the Li family is very perverted and I don't like him at all, the current situation forces me to do nothing about it. Just let him take advantage.
Therefore, Yui Aoki did not answer, but lowered his head.
Sometimes, silence is the answer.
The head of the family and the clan elders looked at each other, and they all saw that each other was ready to move.
Daisuke Aoki said sadly: "Stupid, confused, you know he is Li Xianyu, why are you still friendly with him? Don't you know the history of the Unparalleled Fighting Spirit? Do you think he will be a good destination?"
Aoki Yui said weakly: "He is very good to me..."
The Li family heir's attitude towards her has indeed changed, which is not a lie.
Not bad for her...
Daisuke Aoki and the clan elders looked at each other again, and found that the thoughts in everyone's eyes were almost the same: It's worth a try!
