Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

The elders looked at each other. They did not know what they were going to do next. To go against three or four different Soul Evolution experts at once was a family changing event.

The entire force of the family had to be called back so that they could fight back.

Along with that, the sect protecting array had to be used. Whatever was going to happen, the Hong family was going to come out weaker.

If they were going against a sect, then the entire sect would be their reward. The resources that a sect had were numerous, and they would maybe even profit from the battle.

But against three individuals, it was useless. What could they have that would justify calling the entire family together for?

"What about the Moon Pavilion? We sent Hong Yun there right? Please tell me we were first. Or did the Cai family get there before us?" the elder right next to the family master asked.

"Hong Yun went to the Moon Pavilion, but all he found were terrified youngsters. Nothing of the Moon Pavilion remained. Someone wiped it clean. But it is probably not the Cai family. Cai Shi also appeared there, and he was also surprised, and thought that it was Hong Yun that claimed the rewards." another elder said.

"That is interesting. Could it be, that Liu Feng and his companion have the inheritance of the Moon Pavilion?" the former elder asked.

"No. It is not him. It is that beast that caused all of this in the first place." the family head said, his voice silencing the entire hall.

This was the first time that the family head spoke in the entire session, as he was passive during the entire time.

"How do you know that? I mean, it could be a smokescreen? He could have it, and given it to whatever faction he is a part of. Is he a part of a sect?" the elder at the front was probably the only one who could ask the Family head a question countering him.

​ He was one of the four Soul Evolution Stage experts in the family, and had a lot of say within the family.

"I spoke with the second prince. The reason that the Moon Pavilion fell was not related to Liu Feng at all. Liu Feng only helped the beast escape. Killing the Pavilion master was done by the beast, and destroying the sect was done by the beast as well. I do not know what this beast is, but it is a terrifying existence that we cannot go against. We should give up on the Moon Pavilion's inheritance for now." the family head sighed.

He looked at the elders and looked back at the floor.

"This is a fight that will not give us any benefit at all. But it is a fight that we have to go through. We tried to kill that Green Gale tiger, and it failed. I do not know what went wrong there, but it failed at the wrong time. If we had the core of the Green Gale tiger, then we would definitely be the strongest power in the entire kingdom. Even stronger than the goddamn royal palace. But that didn't work out, and now, we are facing the consequences." the family head sighed.

"I told you that day. If it didn't work out, then the family would face a terrible opponent. On that day, we lost three Xiantian experts, and an Imperial Artifact. Yesterday, we lost the head of the shadow guards. We are the weakest that the Hong family have been in the last three hundred years!" the elder in the front stood up.

"What do you want me to do about it?" the family head stood up as well, and the pressure he exerted caused everyone's face to change. He was angry now, and the elder had pushed him too far.

"Don't you dare try to show off the power that you inherited from father, Hong Qiu. You know that if father had favored me like he favored you, then I would be in that position, and not you. You did not get to the Peak of the Soul Evolution Stage on your own. The family gave you that power, and you do not have the right to use it to force your power over the council of elders no less." this elder said.

"You are the first elder. Not even the grand elder. Know your limits. If any one of my choices went as planned, then all of you would be celebrating. But now, because of one mistake, you are blaming me?" the family head scoffed.

"That is what being the family head means! You are responsible for this mess! Now, we have to clean up after you!" the first elder shouted.

"Both of you! Shut up!" the elder opposite to the first elder stood up. His long, white beard fluttered as he put his hands behind his back.

"Hong Qiu. It is undeniable that what you have done was wrong. You were not supposed to take a decision like that without the permission of the council of elders. But you still went ahead with that." the old man said.

His demeanor gave him a wise feeling. This man felt like the eldest in the entire room of old and wrinkly people.

"But grandfather-"

"You will call me the grand elder!" the old man shouted.

He then looked at the first elder.

"As for you. Watch your mouth. You are talking to the family head. No longer are you considered brothers in this room. You are the pillars upon which this family stands. And right now, we have enemies of the family roaming around, gathering forces. And what are we doing? Fighting among ourselves? Call our allies. Tell everyone that it is now or never. It is time for them to show their loyalties at the right time." the grand elder said.

"Yes, grand elder!" both Hong Qiu and the first elder nodded.

"We will start with the Gu family."
