Chapter 817
Long Xiaoshan squinted his eyes, sitting on the mahogany chair that symbolized the power and status of the Situ family, and looked at the Situ family below.
Situ Mingde stood there tremblingly.
He was not in good health, and he had been kneeling for such a long time just now. Judging from his expression, it was like a candle in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any time.
But Long Xiaoshan didn't have any mercy.
He knew that this nearly dying old man was definitely not as weak and pitiful as he looked.
At least half of his performance was fake.
Even if Situ Mingde pretends to be like him, how can he avoid his eyes.
This old man who has controlled the Situ family for decades and brought the Situ family from a second-rate family to one of the top five aristocratic families in Xichuan is definitely a ruthless tycoon.
It would be a big mistake to think of him as a poor old man.
But Long Xiaoshan didn't care.
No matter whether the old man is a tyrant or a traitor, he can destroy him with one hand. This is absolute power, simple and crude, but extremely effective.
Although he could gradually defeat the Situ family by relying on the Tang family's connections and cutting flesh with soft knives, there was no such thrill as overpowering them.
There was silence in the hall, and the air was so dead and oppressive.
More than ten minutes passed like this.
Situ Mingde finally couldn't stand it anymore. Although he was indeed pretending to be weak, it was also true that he was in poor health and he was old.
I had been kneeling for a long time just now, and now I was standing here for a long time.
Both of his feet began to feel numb, and he was almost unable to stand still.
He couldn't help but said: "Master Long, do you have any instructions? The Situ family was blind this time and offended the master. The Situ family is willing to be punished. Master, please enlighten me!"
Long Xiaoshan raised his head and his eyes fell on Situ Mingde indifferently.
Situ Mingde's eyes shrank.
In the eyes of others, Long Xiaoshan has completely restrained his aura at this time, and seems to have become an ordinary person in both appearance and temperament.
But in the eyes of an old fox like Situ Mingde.
Under Long Xiaoshan's ordinary temperament, hidden is the indifference of overlooking all living beings.
In his eyes, everything seemed like grass and grass, which reminded Situ Mingde of the eyes he saw only when he went to Taoist temples and burned incense in the temples and saw the eyes of the immortal Buddha.
The now calm Long Xiaoshan made Situ Mingde feel even more frightened and trembled.
Because no matter how powerful a person appears, even if he is a master, he can still defeat him.
But now Long Xiaoshan's kind of insight into the world, seeing through the world of mortals, and transcending things is truly terrifying, as if the entire Situ family is nothing more than ants in his eyes.
People can fight with people, but can people fight with gods
Situ Mingde didn't even dare to look directly into those indifferent eyes.
"Master Situ, you are not young anymore, and I think your body and bones are no longer good. It is time for this family leader to step down and give way to someone else." Long Xiaoshan's calm voice came.
"What?"
Situ Mingde's eyes suddenly shrank, and he quickly raised his head. A tycoon who loves power is most afraid of losing his status, so Situ Mingde still occupies the position of the head of the Situ family and refuses to give up.
Now Long Xiaoshan suddenly said such words, making him unable to control his emotions: "Master Long, what do you mean?"
Long Xiaoshan said calmly: "Your Situ family took the initiative to provoke me and coveted to annex my property, which is a crime of disrespect. From now on, you pass the position of the head of the family to Situ Qian. She is a member of your Situ family. There is no problem. Bar."
"What?"
The entire Situ family was in commotion.
"absurd!"
Many people from the Situ family shouted out that although Situ Qian was from the Situ family, she had a weak character and was already married to the Cao family. How could she be the head of the Situ family.
Even Situ Qian herself was shocked, with a look of panic on her face. She didn't expect that Long Xiaoshan would let her be the head of the family. She opened her mouth to speak for a moment, but Shangguan Lily, who was standing next to her, pulled her hard, put her index finger to her mouth, and pointed towards She said "shhh".
Signaling her not to speak.
Situ Qian never had any opinions, but when Shangguan Lily stopped her, she didn't know what to say.
Situ Mingde said anxiously: "Master Long, my daughter Situ Qian is already married, and now she is the widow of the Cao family. How can she be the head of the Situ family?"
"Oh, you mean, because Situ Qian married the Cao family, he is a member of the Cao family and cannot be the head of the family?" Long Xiaoshan said.
Situ Mingde always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of much at this time and said quickly: "Yes, a married daughter is like water thrown out. She is no longer a member of the Situ family, so she cannot be the head of the family. "
Long Xiaoshan chuckled and said: "Well, if you think this is the case, then pass it on to Shangguan Lily. She is no longer an outsider, right? She has married your Situ family and is a member of your Situ family. Let this family head be justified."
Situ Mingde was horrified, and then he realized that he had fallen into a trap. Long Xiaoshan must have wanted Shangguan Lily to be the head of the family, so he deliberately proposed to Situ Qian first and let him set a trap for himself.
"This, this won't work, our Situ family has never had a precedent of a foreigner being the head of the family!" Situ Mingde said bravely.
boom!
Long Xiaoshan slapped the coffee table with his palm, and the whole coffee table shattered. He stared and said sternly: "Are you kidding me? Just now I made Situ Qian the head of the family. You said that she is a member of the Cao family when she marries into the Cao family. Now I asked Shangguan Lily to be the head of the family, and you said she has a foreign surname again. What do you mean, anyway, my words are nonsense, aren't they? Very good, this is your choice, Situ Mingde."
A fierce murderous aura filled the entire hall.
Bang bang!
The lightbulbs on the ceiling continued to explode with brightness and darkness, and the Situ family members kept screaming.
Situ Mingde was really angry when he saw Long Xiaoshan and seemed to be going on a killing spree.
He shouted urgently: "Master Long, calm down, calm down. I agreed. I agreed to let Situ Qian be the head of the family. I forgot that although Qianqian married the head of the Cao family, the head of the Cao family is dead, and Qianqian is already dead." She has returned to the family and entered the family tree again, so there is no problem for her to be the head of the family."
Long Xiaoshan's eyes narrowed.
To be honest, he planned to make Shangguan Lily the head of the Situ family.
This is what he promised Shangguan Lily just now, but this old guy Situ Mingde is indeed an old fox. He would rather slap himself in the face immediately than make Situ Qian the head of the family. Apparently because Situ Qian is weaker, At the same time, for the sake of the Situ family's blood.
If he really wants to pass it on to Shangguan Lily, it will be hard to say whether the Situ family will trust Situ or not.
