C299 Identity of Successor?
C299 Identity of Successor?
This way, they would be in the dark, the enemy in the light, furthermore it was a time of internal and external troubles, so how could Huo Zhenqian have the mind to plot against them?
Lu Yang and Huo Qiang chatted for a while more before Huo Qiang finally calmed down. At the same time, he admired Lu Yang's series of plans. The most important thing was that Lu Yang treated him as his own trusted aide, not like Huo Zhenqian, who only treated him as a tool to be used. Once Lu Yang was done using him, he would throw him away and ignore him, which was what Huo Qiang was most touched about him. After all, they were not related in any way, and Lu Yang had even saved his life, giving him a new life.
"Master, you can rest assured that I will arrange all of this in an organized manner. In addition, I have some things that I need you to take care of me. My life was given to me by Master, I can do whatever Master wants!" If there wasn't anyone here, Huo Qiang would definitely cry out of gratitude.
"Fine, you'll keep this kind of feeling in a while. As long as they confirm your position, you can use this tone to say a few more words to your mother. Perhaps, you can gain other people's sympathy. I think your mother will be safe in heaven. In addition, now is not the time for you to be strong. You must keep a low profile and do your best to highlight the tragedy that happened when you left the family. As for your wish is to make your family stronger, as for power, it's best to speak less, and even sacrifice more, understand? " Just as he was about to enter the meeting room, Lu Yang told Huo Qiang once again.
"I understand!" Huo Qiang nodded his head, the two of them made a few turns and finally entered the Meeting Room.
In truth, the people Huo Zhenqian had sent over wanted to bring them to the Meeting Room, but he was sent away by a few High Level Crystal Stone s. With his powerful cultivation, how could he not find the Meeting Room?
"Hahaha, this should be my long-lost nephew!" One must know that Huo Qiang's mother was his distant cousin. Although his cousin died miserably, he had known the cause of death after so many years had passed, and did not expect that his cousin's son was still alive. Huo Qiansheng naturally wished for his cousin's son to return to his family.
Moreover, back then he was the one who brought his cousin to the Huo Family, and his cousin was killed by that bastard Huo Zhenqian. He kept this in mind.
"Uncle, is that you?" Hearing Huo Qiang Sheng's words, Huo Qiang suddenly thought about it and suddenly remembered his only kin in the Huo Family.
"Hahaha, it's me, it's me. "Come, sit beside me. This time, you can become the successor of the family. If you want to inherit the position of the family head in the future, I will be the first to support you!" Huo Qiang Sheng possessed real power in the Huo Family, so no one dared to offend him. It was also because of this that Huo Zhenqian wanted to use such a gentle method to invite Huo Qiang.
Otherwise, if he secretly killed Huo Qiang, wouldn't it be easier for him to seize the property?
"Thank you, Uncle!" "Oh right, Uncle, let me introduce him to you. This is my trusted subordinate. I had saved his life before, and now he can be considered as my reverend!" Huo Qiang's meaning was very obvious. His trusted aides and ministers were completely different. His subordinates were his subordinates, and the Guardian now had more authority to act. He didn't even need to stay by his master's side.
"Oh, it's a Yellow Grade Beast-controlling Master. Not bad. Don't worry, as long as you join our Huo Family, you can look for me for anything in the future within the clan! " Huo Qiansheng patted his chest and said.
"Hehe, Johnson, what big words you have there. Could it be that if this kid wants to compete for the position of Patriarch in the future, you can also support him? I think you are daydreaming, it is already not bad for a bastard to have inherited the power! " At this time, Huo Zhan Sheng walked into the meeting hall and said with a sneer on his face.
He was Huo Zhenqian's direct descendant, so he naturally had to speak up for Huo Zhenqian. Moreover, he was very clear on the main reason Huo Zhenqian called this brat back, so he was extremely disdainful in his heart.
"Zhan Cheng, I don't like what you're saying. But it doesn't matter, I'm supporting my nephew, what does it have to do with you? " Hearing Huo Zhan Sheng's words, Huo Qiang laughed and then flipped the page over.
Huo Zhan Sheng was right. He wanted to support his nephew as the head of the family; that was too arbitrary, so he didn't continue this topic. After all, if he were to spread the news, he would become the target of everyone in the family.
However, when Huo Qiang heard Huo Qiang's words, a sliver of hope appeared in his heart.
"Hahahaha, I didn't expect our Huo Family to be so well-received today, everyone has arrived, not bad. But don't forget, the beast tide is about to arrive. If there's a meeting like this, which one of you doesn't dare to come? Don't blame me for not showing mercy. I wonder if everyone has any objections? " Huo Zhenqian looked at everyone with a hypocritical smile.
At this time, Huo Zhenqian's momentum was at its peak, and naturally no one was willing to go against him.
Very quickly, Huo Zhenqian continued: "Today, the reason why I called you all over, was to say two things. First, it was about the beast tide, and second, it was about me, my wandering son, returning to the clan. Because we are facing a great enemy, the beast tide might reach our Luoyang City tomorrow morning, or even tomorrow morning, so the first thing I want you all to do is to prepare for battle! "
Hearing Huo Zhenqian's words, the clan elders who were originally able to sit steadily became a little nervous.
After all, the beast tide was not a joke, and might cause the entire family to collapse from the beast tide. Even if their Luoyang City fell, they would become the food for the fierce beasts. Thus, all of the Elders of the various clans began to whisper to each other, and some of them even formed an alliance, preparing to advance and retreat together with the others.
Huo Zhenqian had long anticipated all of this, and amongst these elders, he had a lot of trusted aides. Some of the meaning was even conveyed out by it, but the situation was completely within his control, so he did not need to worry at all.
"Patriarch, no matter what you say, we will listen to you. After all, this beast tide isn't just about our family, it's also about the entire Luoyang City." An elder took the lead to shout.
"That's good. Now, according to my arrangements, all of you, listen carefully …" Huo Zhenqian immediately read out the documents he had prepared earlier.
These things were actually already written when the entire capital was filled with large scale demon beast hordes. It could be seen that although this Huo Zhenqian was ruthless and merciless, he had an extraordinary side to him. He could even prepare for many things, if not, he would not have such prestige in the Huo Family.
After some discussion and discussion, it quickly reached Huo Qiang's turn.
As expected, once his matter was mentioned, people began to oppose him again.
"Patriarch, I feel that it would definitely be possible for Huo Qiang to return to the Huo Family. After all, when he first returned, your bloodline was the bloodline of our Huo Family. But he, a concubine, wants to become the successor, so I think we should forget about it! " An elder stood out and objected.
"I don't think so. What happened to Huo Qiang back then is also very miserable. What's more, my cousin was originally the direct descendant of a big family. How can you make her son lose his identity as the successor just because of her identity? " Hearing the elder's words, Huo Qiansheng immediately stood up and shouted.
"What Johnson said makes sense. I don't think there's any need to be too entangled in this matter." After all, Huo Qiang had contributed greatly to his return to his clan this time. Moreover, I feel very guilty about his mother's matter! " Huo Zhenqian suddenly remembered that Huo Qiang had a cousin uncle in his clan that was far away.
Not only that, his uncle was also an elder in power. If there was his uncle's support for Huo Qiang to become Patriarch, there might be a chance for him.
