Chapter 128: Is There An Inheritor Who Has to Wait For 80 Years in the World…
The atmosphere inside the ancestral hall was tense.
Outside Wu's mansion, Lu Heng and others, who watched the situation in the ancestral hall through a water mirror, were surprised by the sudden appearance of "Old Master Wu".
Huo Feng said in surprise, "The evil's magic is very powerful…"
It is not too strange to change into a living person, but the "Wu Yuan" in the water mirror was in a translucent soul state. It is much more difficult to disguise as a soul.
"But although the appearance can be imitated, what about the inner things?" Huo Feng frowned and said, "If only the appearance is similar, these old people of the Wu Clan will find something wrong after they ask…"
Other people were also curious about it.
In the water mirror, in the ancestral hall of the Wu Clan, when the elders saw the appearance of the old man, they all got up one after another.
But instead of welcoming him immediately, they showed their vigilance.
Wu Lie frowned and said, "Are you my Sixth Brother?"
"Wu Yuan" glanced at him coldly and said, "Do I look like a fake?"
The angry look indeed looked like the old master Wu.
Wu Lie thought for a moment and said, "Sixth Brother, let me ask you, when was the last time we met?"
The old man said without hesitation, "It was the night before my son poisoned me. You came to me alone to talk with me about going south."
Uri was a little surprised, "Are you really my Sixth Brother?"
The old man sneered, then pointed to several clan elders and told them several harmless old secrets, which surprised many elders and shopkeepers.
"He is really the old master!"
"The old master!"
"Sixth Brother!"
In the ancestral hall, there was a noise.
Through the water mirror, Huo Feng was surprised to see this scene.
"Does the demon know how to read minds?"
Lu Heng didn't speak, but Wuzhu Helan Zhen looked gloomy.
The evil demons who can read the mind and absorb the soul must have high cultivation bases. No wonder they dare to enter Fushan City… So they have something to rely on!
In the ancestral hall, after people confirmed the true identity of the "Old master Wu", they immediately led him to the main seat.
The young master of the Wu Clan, who was named Wu Zhiqian, had been taken down, tied up, and forced to kneel in front of the old man.
The old man shouted angrily, "You unfilial son! What can you say in front of your father?"
Wu Zhiqian knelt down on the ground in sweat and kowtowed desperately. "Father, please forgive me! It's because I lost my mind, and I beg my father to forgive me this time. I promise I won't do it again!"
Wu Zhiqian desperately kowtowed and begged for mercy, knocking his head on the floor with a thud, looking pitiful.
However, "Wu Yuan" looked coldly at him and said, "No more? Of course you won't do it again. Your mother has already died, and your father is about to leave now. Of course, you won't do it again… Even if you want to do it, where can you find another father?!"
The last sentence of the old man was shouted out in anger. The extremely angry roar made Wu Zhiqian tremble.
Later, the old man said coldly, "Go to take the Golden Sword Punishment Book out! Today I will kill him personally!"
Not only did Wu Zhiqian become paralyzed with fear, but all the elders of the clan were also shocked.
The Golden Sword Punishment Book is the symbol of the rules of the Wu Clan. Once the Golden Sword Punishment Book is taken out, it means to exercise the clan rules.
According to the rules of the Wu Clan, of course, it is a crime to kill your father…
Wu Lie subconsciously stood up, a little worried, "Sixth Brother! Don't do it!"
Some old men tried to persuade him, "Although Zhiqian made a big mistake, he is your son after all. He is just too young and ignorant. We can give him another chance, like… send him to lead a business…"
However, before Wu Lie had finished speaking, he was frightened by the old man's fierce and angry face. He swallowed all the words.
Seeing Wu Lie's silence, the old man coldly glanced at all the people in the ancestral hall and said, "Is there anyone else who wants to intercede for this unfilial son?"
All the old people were silent.
Seeing that the old man was so angry, who dared to provoke him?
When the old man saw no one answer, he said coldly, "Hum! Young and ignorant? Are you still young and ignorant when you are in your thirties? This villain is born to be evil! I should have seen this!"
The old man's anger made Wu Zhiqian tremble.
At this time, the Golden Sword Punishment Book has been taken out. It's a book made of pure copper, with a small sword of pure gold inserted obliquely.
The clan elders respectfully took out the punishment book hanging on the wooden shelf and handed it to the old master Wu.
The old man took down the book and the sword in his hand. He looked down coldly at his elder son who was kneeling at his feet and said coldly, "Wu Zhiqian, you murdered your father. You should be punished by beheading according to the rules of the Wu Clan… What do you want to say?"
The old man's words made Wu Zhiqian look up quickly.
However, what he saw was his father looking angry at him, as well as many uncles in the room who frowned and said nothing.
In such a situation, Wu Zhiqian immediately became desperate, knowing that he would not be spared this time.
After standing for a while with a pale face, he suddenly broke out violently.
Contrary to his previous weakness and atrophy, he shouted angrily to the old man in front of him.
"You old man! You are always right, and you will never make a mistake, aren't you?"
"If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have come to this point. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have fallen into what I am today. You are responsible for this! You are responsible for this!"
Wu Zhiqian's angry scolding shocked all the elders.
Wu Lie, who stood side by side with the old master Wu, scolded, "What are you going to do? How dare you be presumptuous in front of the ancestral memorial tablets?!"
However, "Wu Yuan" waved his hand and stopped Wu Lie. Then he looked coldly at Wu Zhiqian in front of him and said, "My son, you said I hurt you… Tell me, how did your father hurt you?"
In the eyes of everyone, Wu Zhiqian was full of snot and tears, both despair and resentment. It seemed that his grievances these years had finally broken out.
He stared at his father in despair and indignation and shouted.
"You damned old man! You told me since I was young that I am the future master of the Wu Clan. That you would give the Wu Clan to me sooner or later, so I learned how to be a master from my childhood."
"Good! I heard it! I believed it! I learned how to be the master of the Wu Clan according to your requirements."
"But you! After you gave birth to the second son, you never mentioned it again. You want to help your second son become the master of the clan, don't you?"
"If your second son isn't so bad as he is now, he is already the master of the Wu Clan, right?"
Wu Zhiqian angrily scolded, "But your second son was expelled by you, and I have grown up… yet you never gave me the Wu Clan."
"When you were 70 years old, you said that I would be the master of the Wu Clan. When you were 80 years old, you said that the Wu Clan would be given to me after you died. However, you are almost 100 years old now! I am 38 years old! You still can't give up your power. You think that everyone can live to be 90 years old like you?!"
Wu Zhiqian angrily scolded, "When I was three years old, an enemy of you came to the house and my mother died to save me, and I was also injured that could not be cured in my whole life. The witch doctor said that I would not live more than fifty years… You old man, you want to wait until I am died and pave the way for your second son, right?"
"Even the second elder sister's words are more effective than mine in the Wu Clan, because everyone knows that the eldest son of the Wu Clan will never live to the day to be in power!"
"When you die, the master of the Wu Clan may be my second sister, may be my second brother but it will never be me! Everyone knows it! Even the servants of the Wu Clan know it!"
Wu Zhiqian's eyes were bloodshot, and the more he said, the more excited he became. "Do you think that I want to do that kind of thing? I was forced by you."
"If you lived a few years less or if you didn't love power so much, things would never become like this!"
"You caused all of these! You made me become like this! You forced me to do this! You forced me to do this!"
