Elder Yi Gong’s voice was cold and stern, and every word was powerful.
Quite a few people glanced at each other awkwardly.
Actually… what he said made sense. It was indeed powerful that the red-gold heavenly phoenix could open its meridians continuously, but it was also a fact that it had interrupted Yi Ran’s opening of his meridians.
Yi Ran had always been very talented and was number one among the younger generation. The damage to him this time was really not small, and this was undoubtedly the loss of their entire race.
Moreover, the red-gold heavenly phoenix was still young. If it forcefully opened the third meridian like this, it might indeed have the opposite effect… Wouldn’t that be worse?
One was a genius who hadn’t yet grown up, and the other was a seedling who was already quite powerful. It was indeed a difficult problem to decide.
Yi Zhao glanced at the dejected Yi Ran and frowned. “As I said just now, Yi Ran’s injuries inside and outside his body aren’t serious. And just now, I personally took action to help him recover. As long as you go back and rest for a few days, you can heal. The matter isn’t as serious as you said. Yi Gong, why are you so aggressive?”
“It’s not that I’m aggressive, but Shangguan Yue’s behavior is really too bad!” Elder Yi Gong immediately refuted. “Clan Leader, Yi Ran’s flesh injuries can indeed recover quickly. However, what if this matter leaves a mental barrier for him?! That will severely affect his future cultivation!”
That would be an even greater hidden danger!
Elder Yi Shang frowned. “First Elder, are you questioning the clan leader?”
Elder Yi Gong’s heart skipped a beat, and he felt a little uneasy. But after thinking about it, he did not retreat. I can’t retreat! Today, Yi Ran failed to open his meridians. There is probably no hope of him becoming the young master. I have to obtain the greatest benefits!
“Clan Leader, I just want an explanation!”
The atmosphere was cold.
The cold atmosphere frightened everyone, and they didn’t dare to say anything.
However, just as everyone thought that Yi Zhao would be angry, he suddenly laughed.
The smile was very short and didn’t spread to the corners of the eyes and eyebrows.
Elder Yi Gong’s heart turned cold.
“If that’s the case—Yi Ran is too useless.” Yi Zhao’s voice was indifferent with a trace of cold dignity that could not be disobeyed. “Such a weak person has no right to continue competing for the position of young master.”
…
Elder Yi Gong was stunned for a moment. He never expected Yi Zhao to say such a thing!
“…Clan Leader!? What do you mean…” His lips trembled slightly, and there was urgency and worry in his voice.
Yi Zhao’s smile faded, and he said indifferently, “There’s no hidden meaning to it.”
His answer was cold and heartless, instantly causing Elder Yi Gong and Yi Ran to feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave!
“I-I’m not…” Only then did Elder Yi Gong realize what a stupid mistake he had made! I said that Yi Ran’s future cultivation might be affected. Isn’t this pushing him away from the position of young master? Not to mention us, no clan in this world would allow an incompetent person to take over!
Elder Yi Gong regretted it. Of all the things I could’ve said, why did I have to leave such a handle for others?!
Yi Ran was also stunned, and his face turned pale. At this moment, it was as if a string that had been tense in his mind had snapped!
He opened his mouth and couldn’t help but defend himself. “Clan Leader, am I inferior to that b*stard who came back from outside?!”
There was a sudden silence.
Some people couldn’t help but cover their mouths. Yi Ran is really crazy! It’s fine if he said some things in private, but how could he say it in public?!
Even Elder Yi Gong glared at him in shock and anger. “Yi Ran! Shut up!”
“I’m just telling the truth!” Yi Ran had indeed lost his mind.
Nobody knew how long he had waited for this day and how much he had sacrificed. He had always thought that the position of young master was his and could not be changed! But today, he had been forcefully robbed of the Ancestral Golden Feather and failed to open his meridian.
It was obvious that he had suffered a loss, but the clan leader and the others had always been biased toward that b*stard!
Now, the clan leader said that he wasn’t qualified to compete for the position of young master? How could he tolerate this?!
“No matter how powerful it is, it has only opened the third meridian now. I was opening my fourth meridian when I was interrupted by it, but you don’t care at all?! How can there be such a reason in the world?!” Yi Ran was filled with anger.
He refused to accept it!
He was indignant!
“Sigh—Yi Ran, watch your words. Tuan Zi is already of the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan’s bloodline. Regardless of whether it has continuously opened its meridians, it can’t be humiliated like this,” Elder Yi Yu reminded.
There was no longer his usual smile on his face. It was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with Yi Ran’s words.
Yi Ran was used to being arrogant and had never taken others seriously. However, he would more or less restrain himself and would never be so impudent.
“Clan Leader, Yi Ran is confused from anger. I’ll bring him back now! I—” Elder Yi Gong hurriedly tried to save Yi Ran.
However, Yi Zhao raised his hand. “There’s no need. What you said isn’t unreasonable. We should give Yi Ran an explanation.”
Elder Yi Gong’s voice stopped abruptly. For some reason, he didn’t feel happy at all when he heard this. Instead, he felt uneasy!
Yi Ran clenched his fists with a furious expression.
Yi Zhao sized him up and suddenly asked, “Are you unconvinced that a junior who has opened the third meridian has snatched your chance to break through? Do you think you’re superior to it?”
Yi Ran didn’t say anything, but it was obvious that he had tacitly agreed.
Yi Zhao suddenly raised his eyebrows. “Then… what if it also opens the fourth meridian?”
Yi Ran was suddenly stunned.
Yi Zhao raised his chin.
Yi Ran turned around and abruptly widened his eyes.
The Ancestral Golden Feather had yet to disappear!
