Chapter 411: Zong Family

After hearing the whole story, Chu Yang felt dumbfounded.

Originally, Wei Sizhe had already dismissed his sixth uncle, and he only had to wait until Wei Yongyuan woke up to stabilize the overall situation. However, he never thought that Yi Xue would come again and give the clan elders an opportunity to make trouble. Now they can no longer hide from it no matter what. .

After the room fell into silence, Chu Yang stepped in.

Seeing him, the three of them seemed to have a backbone, and they all stepped forward to ask him for advice.

"Okay, don't worry. I already know the matter. Aren't they just a few old men? Is it possible that I'm still afraid of them?"

Chu Yang comforted him with a smile.

Wei Yuxin listened to his relaxed words and couldn't help but remind her: "Xiaoyang, you must not underestimate the enemy. The clan elders have a lot of power in the clan. If you don't handle it well, it will be very difficult for your uncle and them to deal with it. Now your grandfather is still I’m not sober. If they take this opportunity to snatch the right to distribute materials, I’m afraid most of the tribe will support the elders.”

"Is the situation so serious?"

Chu Yang couldn't help but frown and said: "What ability does this clan elder have? He can get the support of so many clan members, and he is not afraid of being put in the shoes of his uncle?"

"Speaking of this matter, it actually has something to do with what happened seventeen years ago. That time, the clan suffered heavy losses and the prestige of our clan fell to the bottom. Fortunately, your grandfather received the support of the hidden sect so that he could continue to be the clan leader. However, , under the circumstances, the prestige of the clan elders has also increased a lot. In addition, they control the refining of elixirs in the clan. Many clan members want to send their children to learn alchemy. Naturally, they are very tight. Wang Qi It so happened that the son was attracted by the sixth uncle and was introduced to his disciples to learn alchemy. "

Wei Yuxin explained.

"Wait a minute, aren't the two uncles in this clan mastering the art of alchemy?"

Chu Yang asked unexpectedly.

Compared to the power disputes in the clan, he was more interested in this information. The Wei family was a family of alchemists, and their ability to survive for thousands of years depended on the alchemy skills in their hands.

However, at this time, alchemy was not in the hands of the direct descendants of the Wei family, but was controlled by the clan elders. It was really a strange phenomenon.

"The art of alchemy has long been out of the hands of our clan."

Wei Yuxin smiled bitterly and said: "Your grandfather told me that hundreds of years ago, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth became thinner and thinner, making it more difficult for monks to practice. The ancestors of the Wei family felt that they were biting off more than they could chew, so they separated the practice of martial arts and alchemy. , let the descendants of the Zong family concentrate on practicing the martial arts, and then select enlightened clan members from the side branches to teach alchemy, and let them assist the Zong family. The two lines complement each other and make the Wei family more powerful.

At first, this method did work. Our family concentrated on cultivation, and indeed produced many amazing and talented people. For a time, they were unparalleled in the family. However, in any family and in any era, there will inevitably be people with dull qualifications and incompetent cultivation. In this case, the strength of the Zong family was greatly weakened.

The people selected to learn alchemy are all people with excellent qualifications and understanding in the clan, so they will not encounter situations where the inheritance cannot be sustained. Under the circumstances, the power of the side learning alchemy has greatly increased. He also worked hard to implement the clan elder system to improve his status in the clan. After hundreds of years, it has become the current situation. Fortunately, the clan family has been cultivating the skills and can barely maintain its status.

Fortunately, when your grandfather came to power, because he was connected to the hidden sect, he was able to suppress the clan elders firmly, so that our clan did not have to look at the clan elders. But now they have caught this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I’m afraid I won’t give up this opportunity easily! "

"I see."

Chu Yang had some understanding. No wonder he didn't hear his two uncles mention alchemy. They didn't know how to do it at all.

Wei Zixi asked from the side: "Brother, do you still want to go? Those old men are very bad and they will be punished according to the clan rules at every turn. You will definitely be bullied if you go. How about we take the opportunity to escape? As long as If you leave Ruoye River, they won't be able to control you."

"You want me to run away?"

Chu Yang pinched Wei Zixi's nose and said disdainfully: "They are just a few old men. They really think they are the dishonest. If they really annoy me, I have to give them a slap on the wrist!"

Wei Yuxin also knew that she couldn't escape, and sighed: "Then let's go. It's not good to keep the clan elders waiting for too long. I believe your uncle and the others have already got the news, and they will definitely speak for us."

"Okay, then I will go meet these old men and see what they are capable of."

Chu Yang actually walked out carelessly.

Yi Xueqi said, "Miss, I'll go with you, maybe I can be of some help."

Without waiting for Wei Yuxin to reply, Chu Yang waved his hand and said, "You and Zixi can concentrate on training at home and strive to advance before leaving Ruoye Creek. You don't have to worry about other things. I can handle it."

As soon as they left the hospital, Chu Yang saw two middle-aged men looking towards them.

There were several young people scattered around the courtyard wall, as if they were guarding against someone jumping over the wall and escaping.

"I've kept you waiting for so long."

Chu Yang stood still outside the door, stretched out his hands and stretched his muscles.

Seeing this warm-up action, everyone thought he wanted to take action, and quickly made a defensive posture, preparing to deal with Chu Yang's attack.

Unexpectedly, after Chu Yang stretched his muscles, he had no intention of taking action. Instead, he said with his hands behind his back: "Why are you all standing there in a daze? Don't you want to invite us to a meeting? Are you walking?"

This teasing attitude made the black-faced man opposite him a little angry. He opened his mouth to scold him, but before he could make a sound, the tall and thin man next to him reached out to stop him.

"Second Miss, the clan elders are waiting for your reply, shall we go there now?"

The tall and thin man bowed to Wei Yuxin and made a gesture of invitation.

Wei Yuxin was a daughter of the Zong family, so she naturally had no good feelings for the people of the clan elders. She said lightly: "I am just a weak woman and walk slowly. Why don't you go first and we will be there later."

"Ahem, the clan elders said that they would escort the two of you to the meeting hall to avoid being bumped by blind people."

The tall and thin man said unnaturally.

"Bah, you are just afraid that I will run away, and you still say escort, I am not open to you."

Chu Yang spat disdainfully and walked forward first.

"You..."

The dark-faced middle-aged man almost exploded. If it weren't for the clan elders' instructions not to cause trouble, he would have to teach this ignorant kid a lesson!

The Zong family's meeting place is the Zhengqi Hall. In order to raise their status, the clan elders also raised funds to build a meeting place and gave it a straightforward name - the meeting hall.

After arriving at the place, many members of the Wei clan gathered outside the meeting hall, all gathered in groups of three or five, whispering, as if sharing the news they had heard.

"Here they come!"

As they were talking excitedly, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.

Everyone looked back and saw Wei Yuxin walking in first, followed by a young man who was sloppy and holding a dogtail grass in his mouth.
