C1101 Come Uninvited
"Dongshan, the appointment of a city lord needs to be handed over to the previous city lord. There needs to be a handover ceremony and procedure, which requires a process. You and Yifeng go back first and make your own preparations. Tomorrow, we will follow the orders of the Family Order. After the handover is completed, you can go to your respective posts. " Elder Hui frowned slightly.
"Yes, Elder Hui. Yifeng doesn't dare to disobey the orders of the clan. I will go back and pack up now and move out of City Lord Mansion tomorrow." Lian Yifeng suppressed the humiliation in his heart. No matter how dissatisfied he was with the Family Order, he had no way to resist, so he could only obey.
"Elder Hui, the Family Order is here. The order will be carried out immediately. Dongshan didn't dare to be neglectful. It just so happened that all the officials and patriarchs of the various families in Phoenix Cry City, as well as the Cultivation Expert and famous officials in the city, were present. All of them are gathered here, and Elder Hui is here to personally witness it. The City Lord handover ceremony is just in time. Elder Hui, please preside over it. " Lian Dongshan, however, did not give up and cupped his hands.
"Dongshan, the handover of the City Lord must be formal and prudent. How can it be so hasty? Don't talk about it anymore. You and Yifeng, go back now and prepare for the handover tomorrow." Elder Hui's voice also gradually became louder and louder.
Lian Dongshan's coercion made Elder Hui more and more unhappy. He also felt that Lian Dongshan no longer had the same respect he had in the past. In his heart, he wanted to teach Lian Dongshan a lesson.
Elder Hui usually received some benefits from Lian Dongming and the others, and was somewhat biased towards them. Furthermore, Elder Hui also knew that there were higher ups of the main star who were secretly suppressing Lian Haoran's bloodline. However, in Elder Hui's heart, Lian Haoran was an indomitable hero of the family. Regarding Lian Yifeng's side, he didn't deliberately suppress them. Otherwise, Phoenix Cry City wouldn't be as peaceful and prosperous as it was now.
Regarding the appointment of the city lord, as well as the fact that the Family Order was delivered on Lian Yifeng's wedding day, Elder Hui also felt that it was a little too much. He was full of sympathy for Lian Yifeng.
At the same time, Elder Hui still had some misgivings, which was to sit beside him. Yun Fei, who addressed Lian Yifeng as his brother, announced the Family Order. At the beginning, there was only a slight trace of anger on his face, but later on, he regained his composure. He didn't care about it at all, and he wasn't worried at all. It was as if nothing had happened.
This made Elder Hui's heart beat even harder. He did not know that this peerless genius who was hiding in this place was a young expert whose strength was not weaker than his own. Regarding this sudden Family Order, how would he react when Lian Yifeng was bullied by his family like this?
"Elder Hui..." Lian Dongshan was still unwilling to give up.
"Don't say anymore! What? Lian Dongshan, what I, the Sect Elder, said is not good for you? You have yet to become the City Lord, but you have already put me, an elder, in your eyes. Even if your father, Lian Dingjun, is here, he wouldn't dare to do this to me. " Elder Hui raised his eyebrows and shouted angrily.
" Haha, Elder Hui, you have such great prestige. I, Dingjun, respect Elder Hui like an honored guest. I really do not dare to act rashly!" A hearty laughter was heard at the entrance of the main hall. A middle-aged man in white robes entered in a flash. He flew towards Elder Hui's seat in the air, and a few black-clothed experts flew in. Lian Dongming, whose face was slightly swollen, followed closely behind.
This middle-aged man in white was the father of Lian Dongming and Lian Dongshan, Lian Dingjun.
After flying to Elder Hui, Lian Dingjun cupped his fists and greeted him, "Lian Dingjun greets Elder Hui. Elder Hui is so angry with Shan'er. May I know what is the matter?"
The content of Lian Dingjun's words and his casual attitude made Elder Hui's heart burn even more.
Before Elder Hui could say anything, Lian Dingjun actually threw Elder Hui aside. He looked at Lian Wanzhou and said, "Wanzhou, Feng'er's wedding is such an important matter, and you actually didn't personally go to Xing Luan City to inform me. Did you not take me, your elder brother, seriously?"
Lian Wanzhou was feeling vexed and aggrieved because of the fact that Lian Yifeng was exempted from the marriage. Hearing this, he became even angrier and said in a deep voice, "Lian Dingjun, Feng-er is getting married. I will personally make an invitation for you to come. You turned a deaf ear to it. In the end, you still blame it on me. Now that Feng'er's wedding ceremony has been completed, you only came now. I wonder what you mean?"
" Feng'er's wedding, why didn't you personally come to Xing Luan City to invite him? Forget about this matter, I won't lower myself to your level. I came uninvited this time because Shan'er is about to take over the position of Phoenix Cry City's City Lord. As a father, how could I not come to congratulate him? Haha... "
Lian Dingjun laughed twice, then turned to Lian Yifeng and said," By the way, Shan Er is still young. Feng Er, when the time comes, you will be working for Shan Er. I hope that as the elder brother, you will do your best to assist him. Help Shan Er manage the Phoenix Cry City well. Feng Er... You're right, aren't you? "
"Dingjun, that's enough. I just said that the City Lord's handover will be carried out tomorrow. Everyone, go back and prepare!" Elder Hui shouted. Lian Dingjun's arrogant attitude made Elder Hui even more furious.
"Elder Hui, the Family Order has already made it clear. I wonder why Elder Hui didn't obey the orders. Could it be that Elder Hui has been guarding the Wooden Lotus Star all year round, and doesn't even put the Family Order in his eyes?" Lian Dingjun cupped his hands towards Elder Hui and said.
Lian Dingjun was being so aggressive, and it was obvious that he wanted to make use of this appointment as the City Lord. He wanted Lian Wanzhou's bloodline to become the joke of the entire Wooden Lotus Star, and he would be completely suppressed. He wanted to make sure that ___ would never be able to make a comeback. However, his attitude towards Elder Hui had greatly exceeded everyone's expectations.
"Lian Dingjun, in Wooden Lotus Star, I represent the main Star family. You don't have to teach me how to do things. There are some things. I can still make the decision. Of course, I have to carry out the Family Order! It must be done formally. It can't be done in such a hurry!" Elder Hui said with a gloomy expression.
"Elder Hui, you can't be so neglectful of the Family Order. You have to keep pushing and stalling. I wonder what Eldest Young Master will think when he finds out?" Lian Dingjun put down his hands and straightened his body.
"Eldest Young Master Lian!"
Elder Hui's expression changed dramatically. He instantly understood why Lian Dongshan and Lian Dingjun would treat him in such a way. It turned out that they had the backing of Eldest Young Master Lian. No wonder Lian Yifeng had done a good job as the City Lord, and was replaced by Lian Dongshan, who had just completed the New Year Ceremony.
Eldest Young Master Lian had covered the sky with one hand in the Lian Family. In the Elders Guild... More than half of the elders were inclined to follow the orders of this Eldest Young Master. There were even a few old ancestors who were in seclusion. They admired this eldest young master and asked the family to nurture him with all their strength.
Therefore, almost no one in the clan dared to challenge this Young Master Lian. Even the current clan head showed him some respect.
Elder Hui was just an ordinary elder who was stationed in Wooden Lotus Star. His status in the main star family wasn't high. To Elder Hui, the Young Master Lian was an unreachable existence that he could only look up to.
Lian Wanzhou felt even more depressed and angry in his heart. More than a thousand years ago, it was precisely because of this Young Master Lian that his family was forced to leave the Taihua Star, which was rich in spiritual energy, and leave their home to come to the Wooden Lotus Star.
For nearly a thousand years, although the Wooden Lotus Star wasn't as comfortable as the Taihua Star, it was still considered to have gained a firm foothold. Lian Yifeng was even more successful. Whether it was his cultivation base, strength, or talent, he had made Lian Wanzhou proud.
After so many years, he had never thought that this Young Master Lian would still be so persistent towards his family.
