Chapter 20: Three Day War

Outside Ziyun Cave, the tribe was surrounded by water.
After all, it is a grand event that takes place only in three years. The people of the tribe also want to see how much the best children of the family have grown.
"Come out, they are out." A sharp-eyed clansman shouted.
"Looking at them all smiling, it must be a huge increase in cultivation."
The tribesmen talked about it.
The relatives of the ten family children asked even more expectantly.
"Zimu, what happened?"
"Zhuang'er, where are you going to rebuild now?"
"..."
"Yi'er." The third elder looked at Xiao Yi lovingly.
"Third elders don't worry, Yi'er has gained a lot in it." Xiao Yi said with a smile.
"That's good." The third elder did not question Xiao Yi's cultivation level, but just nodded. For him, the surprise Xiao Yi gave him ten days ago was enough. No matter what Xiao Yi got in Ziyun Cave, he was very satisfied.
However, in this piece of laughter, the faces of two people became very ugly.
One is Xiao Ruohan and the other is his father's fifth elder.
"What the is going on?" The Fifth Elder said angrily, "Yi Ruohan, your Huang-rank martial arts spirit, can definitely condense Qi Pill, how come you can't absorb aura suddenly on the last day?"
Xiao Ruohan shook his head and said in a low voice, "I don't know, but I feel that on the last day, it was that little trash."
"Impossible." The fifth elder said, "Little waste doesn't have that ability. His Chi-rank Martial Spirit has low aptitude, and he is far from your opponent."
Xiao Ruohan retorted, "But, how can he explain his sudden increase in strength a few days ago? I don't believe that he can really jump four times in half a month, and his weird moves. I think there must be some of them. ghost."
The fifth elder was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "Don't care about this, you can't break through to the acquired realm. Although the next thing becomes troublesome, fortunately I was prepared."
"Ready?" Xiao Ruohan was slightly puzzled.
"Yeah." The fifth elder smiled and said, "Ruohan, I ask you, with your current strength, can you be sure to win the little waste?"
"Naturally," Xiao Ruohan said affirmatively, "Although I don't know how far his cultivation has grown in these days in Ziyun Cave, it is absolutely impossible to break through to the acquired realm."
"As long as he is not in the Houtian realm, with my Fire Cloud Python Martial Spirit, it is enough to exert the strength to crush him."
Xiao Ruohan was quite scheming, often calculating others, but guessed something about Xiao Yi.
"Okay, you just have to be sure." The fifth elder said, and suddenly walked in front of all the clansmen.
"Everyone, please listen to me." Supported by the deep infuriating energy, the voice of the fifth elders was extremely high.
The lively atmosphere of the tribesmen stopped instantly, and they all looked at him.
"What the does this guy want to do?" Xiao Yi and the Third Elder frowned at the same time.
"Clan people." The fifth elder said with a righteous look, "The so-called family cannot be without an owner for a day. The position of the head of the Xiao family has been vacant for a long time. As the family is going down, I am the elder of the Xiao family. I would like to see the Xiao family decline day by day."
"So, I propose to re-elect Patriarch!"
The words of the Fifth Elder were too sudden, and the people of the tribe couldn't react to it at once.
In fact, although the position of the head of the Xiao family is vacant, the three elders have taken care of the Xiao family very well these years as the acting head of the family. Not to mention the prosperity, but it is also the prestige.
Some people questioned at the moment, "When has the position of the Patriarch of the Xiao family ever been vacant? The Patriarch is still the Patriarch, but now he is no longer there. Moreover, the fifth elder, you proposed today, is it because you want to be the Patriarch?"
The Fifth Elder immediately replied in a serious manner, "The Patriarch has been missing for a long time, and he exists in name only. Moreover, to avoid criticism, I now promise in front of all the people that I will never be the Patriarch."
The Fifth Elder continued, "As an elder, I have to put my family first. What the Xiao family needs now is a courageous leader. Although I am not old, I am old, and there is no young man. Ambitious."
The tribe said, "It's rare that the five elders understand the great righteousness, but how important is the position of the head of the family? How can it be said that the election is based on long-term consideration."
"Of course I know this." The Five Elders said, "So, now is just preparing for the future. One of the preparations is to elect a capable young Patriarch."
"Young Patriarch?" The people of the tribe suddenly showed a weird look and talked a lot.
The third elder on the side cursed secretly. He already understood the meaning of the fifth elder and immediately shouted, "Fifth elder, don't go too far. Half a month ago, you were already embarrassed by Yi'er. Today, knowing that Yi'er is the Young Patriarch, I still want to take it seriously. Choosing Young Patriarch, do you really treat me as Xiao Zhong so bullying?"
When Xiao Yi was involved, the three elders immediately became angry, full of indignation surging out, and there was a tendency to fight.
The fifth elder seemed to have anticipated the performance of the third elder, and said calmly, "The third elder stays safe and not irritable. The position of the head of the Xiao family has always been for the capable. Back then, the head of the family was cultivated to be the best of the whole clan. It is understandable that his son Xiao Yi became the Young Patriarch."
"But now the Patriarch has disappeared for many years, and there is no news. If Xiao Yi is allowed to be the Young Patriarch, wouldn’t it be too unfair to the children of other families. If Xiao Yi has the ability, the Young Patriarch should be taken care of by him. But if he is incompetent, then I must not sit back and watch, lest he delays the development of the family in the future."
"After all, I just don't want our Xiao family to be ruined in the hands of an incompetent person in the future."
The five elders spoke continuously, expressing affectionately and with awe-inspiring righteousness. I don't know, I would really think that he is a person who has worked hard for the family and thinks about everything.
"It sounds good." The third elder retorted, "Yi'er only defeated Xiao Zimu ten days ago. Why is he incapable?"
The fifth elder smiled and said, "Since the third elder thinks Xiao Yi is capable, let's check it out."
"How to check?" the three elders asked.
"It's very simple." said the five elders, "Xiao Yi must once again accept the challenge of all family children."
"Challenge?" The Third Elder frowned.
"Not bad." The fifth elder smiled, "The position of Young Patriarch must be held by the most outstanding children. Today, the great talents of our Xiao Family have cultivated from Ziyun Cave, each of them has grown in cultivation base and ambitious. The tolerance is extraordinary. If a better young Patriarch can be selected from them, even if the Patriarch still has no news in the future, my Xiao family will not have been left without a leader, and we can select a new leader as soon as possible."
The words of the Fifth Elders were perfect, and the words all expressed consideration for the family, and the people of the tribe suddenly had no doubts.
Of course, from some perspectives, his proposal today is not wrong.
"It seems that if you don't teach you a lesson, you will really get better and better." The third elders could not suppress the anger in his heart, and they were about to take action immediately.
Xiao Yi grabbed him, then stood up and said loudly, "I accept any challenge from my children. According to the fifth elder, when will the inspection begin?"
Xiao Yi knew very well that Xiao Ruohan was the only one to challenge all the so-called children.
After all, since he easily defeated Xiao Zimu ten days ago, the other children had consciously been no opponents. Only Xiao Ruohan has the ability to fight himself.
Moreover, I believe that in the hearts of many tribesmen, they also want to know whether Xiao Ruohan, the first person in the younger generation, is stronger, or himself, the young Patriarch who suddenly emerged.
"Refreshing." The fifth elder said loudly, "It is rare that Xiao Yi, you understand the righteousness, and I admire it. You just came out of Ziyun Cave, and you must have been tired. In order to let you exert stronger strength, I will give you three days. Time to rest, three days later, the family competition field, accept the challenge."
"Humph." Xiao Yi sneered in his heart, "Speaking nicely, but secretly I don't know what conspiracy is going on."
However, he still said, "Okay, just follow the five elders."
