Chapter 1824: House Yan Trembles (1/2)
The argued on and on
One of their venerated elders had left, while the other cared nothing for clan affairs As a result, members of lower ranks suddenly had more of a voice, one of as Elder Xi, the one sent to the human domain He was a devoted supporter of House Xiahou
He’d visited the human domain to curry favor with House Xiahou Afterwards, the house had approached him and promised to make him one of House Yan’s venerated elders
Before Yan Wanjun’s departure and Yan Wanchong’s change of attitude, Elder Xi hadn’t been experienced or well-respected enough to beco broke out, he was promoted as a special case via instructions froued that while Elder Xi wasn’t advanced enough in martial dao, he was a competent and efficient th, while his proble that couldn’t be learned
Elder Xi thus became House Yan’s venerated elder - well, a probationary one for the ti It’d take some time before he became an official venerated elder, but in practice, he was one already
Elder Xi declared with shi+ning confidence, “You shouldn’t have pulled away fro words, Patriarch Things ain after Forefather Xiahou returns House Xiahou is unhappy with us enough as it is What if”
He sighed, putting on a heavily disappointed expression In reality, he wasn’t that affected
Of course, he still wanted House Xiahou to make a comeback and come out on top Then they would settle the score, which wasn’t a good thing for House Yan, but could end up benefiting him
The patriarch would be the first to come in for his share of blame Then a few senior executives who’d been in their positions for years would be made an example of In that case, it was possible that House Xiahou would make him the patriarch of House Yan
That was his dream scenario
His words were met with immediate rebuttal from others “Elder Xi, House Xiahou is clearly doomed Only you would put your hopes in therew sharp “What? Are youme, a venerated elder?”
He hadn’t acquired the title for long, but had taken to parading around his rank like a duck to water
Theyou’re not, venerated elder! We all kno you got the title You’re er Does that ood? We feel embarrassed for you even if you don’t yourself!”
Yan Wanxi raged “How dare you?! Is the hierarchy within the fa the family rules? Patriarch, what is the punishment for those who offend their superiors?”
The patriarch didn’t even blink The fau the escalating argument
“Patriarch! Great news, enor their post and let the sacred land arh without resistance After that, the Cloudwave Sect followed suit
“House Xiahou’s fort has fallen! Apparently most of their experts have been killed Only a select few are still resisting The three pri Duke Xiaoyao, who is in great danger of being overcome at any time”
The news dropped a bomb within House Yan Senior executives who’d supported the sacred land cheered and applauded in delight
“Fantastic, absolutely wonderful! Fate is indeed in favor of the sacred land House Xiahou is nothing but a petty villain Fortune isn’t on their side!”
“Even the so-called top genius Xiahou Zong was slaughtered by Shao Yuan That tells us House Xiahou doesn’t even have a solid enough foundation!”
“House Xiahou is dooain, Patriarch We didn’t join the sacred land’s army in time We should send our elites to attack House Xiahou now Better late than never”
“That’s right Otherwise, how are we going to face the sacred land in the future? Hoill they look at us flip-flopping like this?”
“It’s all because of certain people who just had to flirt with House Xiahou! We used to be on friendly terms with the sacred land, and could’ve beco House Yan has been ruined by a few black sheep!”
Those who supported allying with the sacred land now possessed the clear upper hand Even neutral members had turned into supporters as well
Executives close to House Xiahou gaped in stunned silence
Elder Xi scowled and muttered in a low voice, “Everyone, perhaps this is false information from the sacred land in order to attract support Besides, House Xiahou’s divine forefather still lives The war is not settled yet I believe we should stay put”
