Chapter 636: The Choice of the Elders
The Great Peacock Demon King waved his hand and said: "There is no need to think twice. All the elders of the Peacock Demon Clan come out."
It followed with an order. Next, on the side of the Peacock Demon Clan, all the elders sitting in the front row stood up one after another.
If you want to become an elder, you must at least have a cultivation level above the god level. At this time, there are sixteen elders of the Peacock Demon Clan who stood up. Including the princess, there are seventeen. In other words, in addition to the Great Peacock Demon King, there are seventeen powerful men above the god level, many of whom are at the level of the Great Demon King.
Facing the Peacock Demon King, all the elders bowed slightly to pay tribute.
The Peacock Demon King said calmly: "According to what the princess said, more than 80% of you do not think Xiaomei is suitable to inherit the position of the patriarch, or are you saying that more than 80% are against me as the patriarch?"
The first elder of the Peacock Demon Clan under the princess, who is at the level of the Great Demon King, Wang Han took a step forward and said respectfully: "Clan Chief, as you just said, under your leadership, our tribe has been prospering in the past thirty years, and Kerry City has been prosperous. Prosperity, this is all due to you, no matter what time, we will not oppose you, there is no one more qualified than you to be the leader of the Peacock Demon Clan. However, what the princess said is what we want to say, Peacock Demon. The blood of the clan needs to be pure, so we hope that a pure-blooded clan member can inherit the position of clan leader."
The Peacock Demon King looked at Wang Han with a hint of disappointment in his eyes, "Brother, no. I thought that even you would question my decision. Do you know that the reason why I chose Xiaomei to inherit the throne was purely because she was the only one who could lead the Peacock Demon Clan to a better future. The clan really has a chance to stand at the top again."
Wang Han lowered his head and did not speak again. But its attitude is already clear.
The Peacock Demon King looked at the princess again, "It takes an eight-year-old to impeach and veto my decision, right? You must be very confident. Then come on, as long as there are eight-year-olds who oppose my inheritance as the patriarch today, that will be the end of the day. .”
The princess was shocked after hearing this. It is indeed ready, but it has not thought about impeaching the Peacock Demon King. In the Peacock Demon Clan and the City of Jiali, the Great Peacock Demon King has a high prestige, and it does not want to break up with its husband. The princess is sure that the Peacock Demon King will not pass on the position of patriarch to the beautiful young master, but it is absolutely impossible for the Peacock Demon King to deprive the Peacock Demon King of his position as the patriarch. In fact, if the Peacock Demon King had not injured his fundamental life not long ago, It probably can't even do the former.
However, looking at the Peacock Demon King who was so calm at this time, he suddenly realized that he couldn't do it even with his original confidence?
At this time, the Peacock Demon King did not give it a chance to think more. He said coldly: "The elders who support Xiaomei's succession to the position of my clan leader stand on the right side. Those who do not support it, stay put. Right behind the princess. We have a referendum today."
As soon as this was said, all the elders couldn't help but raise their heads and look at the Peacock Demon King.
The princess turned around and looked at the elders with burning eyes.
Wang Han raised his head and looked at the Peacock Demon King with complicated eyes, with a bitter look on his face, and said: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry."
The Peacock Demon King ignored it and just looked at it calmly. Other elders.
At this moment, among the sixteen elders besides the princess, a figure slowly walked out and walked to the right.
The moment this person came out, both the princess and Wang Han's pupils couldn't help but shrink instantly. Wang Han lost his voice and said: "Mei Yu, you..."
Yes, the one who came out first was none other than the existence of the same level as the Great Demon King, Wang Han's biological sister, Wang Yu!
When the Great Demon King Jingfeng came, he and his brother Wang Han once fought against the two great Demon Kings, Ice Phoenix and Fire Phoenix. At this time, it was the first one to come out.
Wang Yu walked to the right and said calmly: "I support all the clan leader's decisions, because the clan leader's decision is correct. Ask yourselves, has the clan leader made any wrong decisions in the past thirty years? Brother, you should know best. As for me, I know that if today's ceremony fails, the nephew will be the most likely to inherit the throne, but I can't go against the wishes of the patriarch. I'm sorry. "Yes, why Wang Han sided with the princess was because of the princess. He promised it that as long as the beautiful young master is not allowed to inherit the throne, then the successor will choose Wang Han's legitimate son.
The biggest shortcoming of the princess is that the legitimate sons she gave birth to to the Great Peacock Demon King are worse than the last. Just like Wang Yan at the beginning, he was already the worst among the legitimate sons. It's outstanding, but compared with the beautiful young master, it's really a world of difference.
But Wang Han's side is different. Wang Han has a son, who is seven years older than Mr. Mei. He is very outstanding. He has been taught strictly by Wang Han since he was a child, and now he has considerable strength. Wang Han has always supported the Peacock Demon King, but at a time like this, who would be so selfish?
What Wang Han never expected was that his sister would actually stand on his opposite side.
For a moment, its face could not help but turn blue and red, and it was speechless.
At this moment, figures slowly walked out and walked to the right.
Among the sixteen elders, eight more came to the right, including the oldest-looking old man who was third behind Wang Han. Nine of the seventeen elders stood on the right, expressing their support for the clan leader.
Seeing this scene, the princess who had always remained calm could not help but change her expression. Although when the Peacock Demon King said the referendum, it guessed that something might go wrong, it did not expect that more than half of the people would vote. The elders actually chose to side with the Peacock Demon King. These elders have communicated with each other before and expressed their support for him! How could it be...
"Second uncle, didn't you say that purity of blood is the most important thing?" The princess couldn't help but said to the old man who was previously the third in line of elders.
The old man sighed and said: "The king gave me a reason that I cannot help but agree with. I believe that the choices made by the king are indeed for the future of our clan."
"You..." The princess couldn't help but feel angry. She turned to look at the Peacock Demon Emperor, "I wonder if the king can also give me a reason that I can't refuse?"
The Great Peacock Demon King sighed and said: "Even if I give you any reason, you won't agree with my decision, so what's the point?" Its eyes looked coldly from the elders who were still standing on the side of the princess. swept over them.
"At present, there is a great enemy. Each of you should know that for our tribe, the biggest problem currently comes from the outside, from the opponent who wants to occupy Kerry City, but you know this but Are you willing to put our Peacock Demon Clan into a state of eternal disaster by expressing opposition for your own selfish interests in spite of the fundamental interests of our clan?"
The elders were speechless for a moment. Speaking of which, facing the pressure of the Peacock Demon King's powerful aura, his face looked a little ugly.
The Peacock Demon King looked at the princess again, "Now that the results of the selection have come out, I'm afraid your impeachment will not succeed, my great elder."
The princess said coldly: "Even if the impeachment fails, I The clan has rules. If there is any objection to the clan leader's successor, the elders can request a Bainiaozhaoyang Ceremony to determine whether the clan leader's successor is qualified to inherit."
The Great Peacock Demon King said calmly: "You. Do you really want to do this? Do you know that proposing Bainiaoxiaoyang means violating the authority of the patriarch, which means that if it fails, the elder who proposes will be deprived of his position as an elder and will bear all the consequences."
