Chapter 320 I disagree
"I disagree!"
At this moment, they heard a hurried sound of footsteps coming from afar, and everyone looked sideways.
But Xiao Yanhe and Ye Chuxue were seen walking side by side and quickly entering the courtyard.
Behind the two of them, followed closely by the head of the Ye family and several respected elders of the Ye family.
Xiao Yanhe held his head high, looked straight ahead with pride, and spoke loudly.
"I am the eldest son and grandson of the dignified Xiao family. The position of head of this family should naturally belong to me!"
As he spoke, he glared fiercely at Xiao Se who was not far away with a bad look on his face.
Xiao Se seemed exceptionally calm and composed. He lowered his head slightly with an expressionless face, staring at his sleeves with a half-smile in his eyes.
As if there was some dust on it, he slowly and casually brushed it off with his hand.
Hearing what Xiao Yanhe said, Xiao Se slowly raised his head, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and responded in a flat tone.
"Yan He, the position of head of this family has always been held by the most capable. You might as well ask yourself, with your current abilities and strength, are you really sure that you can lead our Xiao family to a higher level of success?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yanhe's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
He never imagined that the great elder who had once solemnly swore in his ear that the position of the head of the family would definitely belong to him would actually say such words at this moment.
In his heart, he has always firmly believed that the position of the head of the Xiao family should belong to him, and he will never allow anyone else to get his hands on it!
"Great Elder, the position of head of this family should have been inherited by me. Are you ambitious and want to take my place?"
Seeing that Xiao Yanhe and Xiao Se were on the verge of a fight, Xiao Junhe took two steps back.
The two of them were fighting each other, and he was just watching the fun.
"Why not?"
At this moment, Xiao Se finally took off all his disguises and stopped hiding.
He was certain that with Master Yu Yuan's personality and way of doing things, it would be absolutely impossible for him to support Xiao Yanhe, a treacherous guy who abandoned Xiao Wanwan.
Thinking of this, Xiao Se straightened his back and looked at Xiao Yanhe with sharp eyes, without any intention of retreating.
For a moment, Xiao Se and Xiao Yanhe were engaged in a verbal battle, neither of them giving in.
The subordinates brought by both sides also joined the battle, waving flags and cheering for their masters. The scene was once extremely chaotic, and it seemed that a fight would break out at the slightest disagreement.
But in the room where Master Yu Yuan and Xiao Batian were, the scene was quite different.
The two were sitting leisurely at the table, sipping tea and listening with interest to the fierce quarrel coming from outside the yard.
Master Yu Yuan smiled and didn't care about all this.
Xiao Batian seemed a little nonchalant, taking a sip of tea from time to time, with a barely perceptible smile on his lips.
"Wanwan, tell me, between the Great Elder and your uncle, who will win in this dispute?"
Seeing Xiao Wanwan looking like a curious baby, stretching her neck to look outside the yard, Xiao Batian couldn't help but chuckle.
"Humph! It must be the Great Elder! My uncle is so self-righteous and has no real ability. If someone sold him out, I'm afraid he would still be happily helping them count the money.
Although Xiao Wanwan had not spent much time with Xiao Yanhe, she could see that he was ambitious and had a high opinion of himself.
At this moment, Xiao Batian, who was originally sitting steadily in the chair, suddenly stood up. His eyes became extremely sharp, and shot straight out of the house like two lightning bolts.
He waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "Alright, it's time for us to go out and take care of this mess. We can't let them mess around any longer. It's time to put an end to this farce."
In the yard, the people on Xiao Se's side and Xiao Yanhe's side were still glaring at each other, with their swords drawn, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
Xiao Yanhe specially invited everyone from the Ye family to come and help. The Ye family had been eyeing this dispute and wanted to get a piece of the pie, so they chose to fully support Xiao Yanhe without hesitation.
Just as the two sides were deadlocked and arguing, a joking voice suddenly rang out.
"Hey, after arguing for half a day, have you guys finally come to any conclusion?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Xiao Batian walking out of the inner hall in high spirits. His piercing eyes swept across the entire room, and when they fell on each person, it seemed to carry an invisible pressure, making people dare not look directly at him.
When Xiao Yanhe saw his father appear safe and sound, he was struck by lightning and stood there in a daze.
He opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief, and muttered with trembling lips.
"Father...Father! Are you okay?"
Before he could finish his words, his feet had already taken several steps back uncontrollably, and his whole body was shaking.
"Humph, you bastard! Are you disappointed that I'm fine?"
Faced with Xiao Yanhe's panic-stricken look, Xiao Batian snorted coldly, glanced at him sideways, and then turned his gaze to Xiao Se not far away.
At this time, Xiao Se already knew in his heart that today's matter would not end easily, but he still straightened his back fearlessly and looked into Xiao Batian's eyes.
The corners of Xiao Batian's mouth rose slightly, revealing a half-smile, and he slowly spoke.
"The Great Elder seems quite dissatisfied with my position as the Patriarch?"
Although there was no anger in his words, they made people feel a chill to the bone.
Xiao Se took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and responded righteously.
"The position of head of this family has always been held by the most capable. I believe I am capable of doing so, so why not fight for it?"
"Really? Then let this family master see what you are capable of."
Before Xiao Se could finish his words, Xiao Batian suddenly attacked without warning.
He waved his palm seemingly casually, and a fierce gust of wind swept towards Xiao Se.
Xiao Se was startled, his pupils suddenly dilated, and he hurriedly used his body skills to retreat backwards, trying to avoid this sudden attack.
"boom."
There was a loud bang, and Xiao Batian's palm fell heavily on Xiao Se's body. He fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string, and couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"You're so vulnerable, yet you still want to claim the position of Patriarch. Who gave you the confidence?"
Xiao Batian glanced around with a cold gaze, and the words he spoke were like an ice knife piercing Xiao Se's heart.
"Come here, arrest them all."
At this time, a group of men in black appeared in the courtyard like ghosts, surrounding Xiao Se, Xiao Yanhe and others.
"Hidden...Hidden Guard?"
Xiao Se widened his eyes in disbelief. He had always thought that the Xiao family's secret guards were legendary.
I didn't expect it to really exist.
He instantly felt his limbs go cold, and the only thing left in his heart was despair.
"It's over!"
When Xiao Yanhe saw the men in black surrounding him, he was suddenly terrified.
The aura of these men in black is far stronger than his own, so he will definitely not be able to escape.
Thinking of this, his legs went weak and he knelt down in front of Xiao Batian with a plop, crying bitterly.
"Father, I know I was wrong! It was the Great Elder who instigated me."
