Chapter 2223 Expelled (1)
"Master, I, I agree with third elder"s suggestion." An elder trembled as he gave his answer under the intense gaze of the ning family master.
After someone took the lead, the other elders also said it one by one. After saying it, all the elders immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
"What if I don"t agree?" After hearing everyone"s opinions, the master of the ning family continued to ask.
"Master, if you don"t agree to this, then we can only announce that we are leaving the family. After all, the ning family members are innocent. They can"t become the sacrifice of Leng ruoxue"s battle with the Divine Master. As the third elder of the ning family, I have to consider the interests of our family members." The third elder said in a righteous manner.
"Oh? Are you doing this for the benefit of your clansmen?" Hearing the third elder"s words, the master of the ning family couldn"t help but raise his eyebrows.
"Yes! The master only has Leng ruoxue in his heart, while I only have the safety of my clansmen in my heart!" The 3rd elder nodded very seriously.
"If that"s the case, then take these people who have the same opinion as you and leave the ning family!" The ning family master"s sharp eyes shot at the third elder like a knife, and his tone was also extremely cold. The elders of the ning family, including the second elder, did not expect their master to make such a decision. Suddenly, all of them were stunned.
The third elder was obviously caught off guard by this situation. After all, according to his original intention, he just wanted to leave the ning family to let his father know their determination, but he didn"t expect that his father would actually agree.
This fact made him instantly dumbfounded.
After he came back to his senses, the anger in his heart grew even stronger.
Could it be that Leng ruoxue was that important to the family head? For a woman who had no blood relations.h.i.+p with him, the head of the family was willing to give up his children and grandchildren? The third elder could not accept this result.
He widened his eyes in disbelief and looked at master ning with tears in his eyes. He choked and asked,""Master, are you really our ning family"s old ancestor, my biological father? How could you be so cold-blooded? you"re willing to abandon us for a woman who has no blood relations.h.i.+p with you? Have you ever considered our feelings? We are your descendants! How could you treat us like this?"
The 3rd elder choked with sobs. The other elders present also couldn"t help but have tears in their eyes when they heard the 3rd elder"s words. They sobbed in low voices, but they didn"t dare to say anything. The air pressure in the study room instantly dropped below zero degrees.
However, when the master of the ning family heard the third elder"s words, the expression on his face became colder and colder. He revealed a mocking smile and said,""You also know that I"m your ancestor and you"re my grandson? I"ve lived for so long, but I"ve never heard of any family"s descendants forcing their own ancestors to leave the family! You"ve really opened my eyes today!"
"Clan head, aren"t we doing this for the clan? Now that Leng ruoxue is wanted by the Divine Master"s residence and the magical beasts, if we continue to be too close to her, we will definitely be implicated by her! For the safety of the ning family, we had no choice but to do this!" The third elder said with an aggrieved expression.
"There"s no need to say anything more. I"ll tell you clearly now that I will not draw a clear line between me and Xue "er! Don"t even think of threatening me with leaving the family. From this moment on, you are no longer a member of the ning family!" The master of the ning family said ruthlessly. It was time for the ning family to be reorganized. This time, he would not be soft-hearted! Since these people wanted to threaten him by leaving the ning family, then he would fulfill their wish, Hmph! They would regret it one day!
The master of the ning family was very disappointed, because the great elder"s words were still in his ears, and the heat had not even subsided, and the thing that the great elder had expected had happened in the ning family. This fact made him quite lose face.
After all, at that time, he was thinking that no one in the ning family would dare to challenge his authority like this! He didn"t expect that it had only been so long! The great elder"s words came true!
"Second elder, you supervise their departure. Divide a third of the West of the ning family"s G.o.d domain as their territory. They can also take away their own things. Their deadline is before tomorrow morning. I don"t want to see them again. " The master of the ning family ordered, and then left the study angrily.
The second elder, who had originally wanted to plead for them, swallowed his words when he saw this scene. This was because he knew that the family head had always kept his word! And this time, the family head was equally serious.
"AI! Go back and pack your things, and prepare to leave the ning family"s main residence!" The 2nd elder sighed, then looked at the 3rd elder with dissatisfaction.
"Second brother!" The third elder called out with a dispirited expression.
"Don"t call me second brother! I"m not worthy!" The second elder said coldly. He was also angry at the third elder"s actions, so he didn"t want to bother with him at all!
After saying that, the second elder called over some guards and accompanied the elders to pack up their things. This time, it was not just these elders who were leaving. Their descendants, subordinates, and so on, all those who had a close relations.h.i.+p with them would be expelled.
On this day, the ning family was destined to not be peaceful!
The other elders who had heard the news rushed over. After asking the second elder about the situation, they wanted to plead for mercy on behalf of the expelled elders to the family head. However, they were stopped by the second elder.
"Second elder, we can"t just ignore this!" An elder said anxiously.
"Once the master has decided on something, he won"t change his mind. Don"t go to him, it will only make him angrier." The second elder said helplessly.
"Second brother, are we just going to watch the ning family split up?" The seventh elder said worriedly.
"I can"t do anything about third brother"s actions. You should know how important Leng ruoxue is to the master. So, I"m not surprised that the master would make such a decision." It was because he was not surprised that he tried to restrain his clansmen after the reward incident. He was afraid that they would accidentally say something they shouldn"t and anger the master. However, he didn"t expect that he couldn"t guard against his third brother when he came back.
"AI!" The second elder"s words made the seventh elder sigh. In fact, the third elder had looked for him before and tried to sound him out. However, at that time, he had very seriously advised the third elder to give up on that idea. At that time, although the third elder didn"t clearly express anything, he didn"t refuse either. Who would have thought that the third elder not only didn"t give up, but also ridiculed many elders and threatened to leave the family? it was no wonder that the family head was angry!
Now, the master had gone along with their wishes in a fit of anger, and the ning family had been completely divided!
"Second elder, seventh elder, why don"t we look for young miss Leng and ask her to help third elder and the others plead for mercy!" At this moment, an elder suggested.
