Cultivation, endless reincarnation

Chapter 40 The position of the patriarch, the debate in the palace

"A soldier cannot stay still without a general, and a snake cannot do without a head."

The patriarch said slowly: "This time I have been away for several years, and it is not known whether I can return, so the Zhao family needs to choose another patriarch."

Zhao Shouyan smiled without warning, and said, "At first, I was going to ask everyone to recommend it together, but just now, I seem to have found a suitable candidate, so I want to appoint the next patriarch while I am still here. The position is given."

"Patriarch, who is your favorite candidate?"

The third elder showed doubts.

Did he know that the patriarch is a person who can't tolerate sand in his eyes, and it is conceivable that the person who can satisfy the patriarch must be extremely talented.

To know.

The patriarchate represents more than power.

It is an indescribable responsibility.

At least half of the fate of the Zhao family is in the hands of the patriarch.

"Far in the sky, right in front of you."

The patriarch looked behind the third elder.

The smile on his face was even wider, and he could see that he was in a very good mood.

Zhao Chonggu was completely dumbfounded this time.

He, Zhao, is just a "waste" who only awakened his spiritual root in his 50s. How could He De make the patriarch so fancy that he was asked to be the next patriarch.

"I"

He was just about to say something.

The hurried voice of the third elder interrupted him.

"Patriarch, absolutely not!"

"Although Yong Qi has the aptitude of the Three Spirit Roots, he has just started to cultivate, and he has no cultivation at all; he is only ten years old, and his temperament is not yet stable. How can he take on the position of patriarch and lead hundreds of thousands of clansmen. "

Those who can refute the patriarch in public in the hall.

It is estimated that there is only the third elder Zhao Deqing alone.

Although the others also felt that what the patriarch said was absurd, but due to the prestige of the patriarch in the past, they really didn't dare to express their objections in a hurry.

Zhao Chonggu's face turned green and pale.

Extremely unnatural.

He felt nothing but embarrassment.

If not.
If the Third Elder hadn't interrupted his words, he couldn't imagine how embarrassing it would be if he really said his words.

And Zhao Yongqi himself.

Instead, he stood still in place, with thousands of thoughts spinning in his mind.

He was also a little puzzled.

It seems that there is nothing special about myself other than the aptitude of the Three Spirit Roots. Why did Zhao Shouyan choose him as the next patriarch?
"Why not."

Zhao Shouyan was extremely firm and gave his own example: "I was 13 years old when I succeeded the patriarch?"

"and also."

He looked at the third elder: "Yong Qi is already at the first level of Qi training, it's not that he has no cultivation."

"One level of Qi training?"

The third elder looked back at Zhao Yongqi.

His eyes were covered with a faint aura, as if they were glowing. As expected, Zhao Yongqi's body surface exuded faint aura fluctuations, which was exactly the scale of the first level of Qi training.

Celestial Eye.

The third elder told Zhao Yongqi before.

It is a common spell used by immortals in the Qi refining period.

It is often used to check the realm of cultivation, or other uncommon evil spirits.

But because every time you use it, there will be a conspicuous aura in your eyes, so it is best not to use it in front of people, otherwise if the other party is a monk with a hot temper, the two will easily conflict.

"Even if it's one level of Qi training."

The third elder just glanced at it, then looked away.

"Yong Qi can't compare with you, the patriarch, you are a rare genius once in a hundred years, use Qi, use Qi"

The third elder was a little speechless.

But he did think about the entire Zhao family.

From his point of view, it was a fluke for the Zhao family to produce a Zhao Shouyan, how could such a talented person be born from generation to generation.

"I have decided on this matter."

Being questioned continuously by the third elder, Zhao Shouyan couldn't help but take an unquestionable tone: "Use it all, come forward."

"The patriarch is confused."

The third elder almost wanted to beat his chest and stumbled: "The patriarch must think twice."

Seeing his behavior, Zhao Shouyan smiled instead of anger, and waved his hand to signal Zhao Yongqi to stand beside him.

Then he said: "Zhao Deqing, let me ask you, if I insist on making Zhao Yongqi the next patriarch, will you help me wholeheartedly?"

"This"

The third elder was a little apprehensive.

After muttering for a while, he said: "Whatever the patriarch said, I will naturally assist with all my heart."

Paused.

He plucked up his courage and continued: "But I am for the Zhao family. I personally still think that Yong Qi is not suitable to be the patriarch at present."

He looked at Zhao Yongqi: "I think we should listen to Yongqi's own opinion, maybe he is not willing to be the patriarch either."

"I"

Zhao Yongqi was taken aback.

He turned his head to look at the patriarch Zhao Shouyan, and then at the third elder Zhao Deqing.

in a hurry.

I really don't know how to answer.

According to Zhao Shouyan's attitude, to show that he is capable of taking the position of patriarch; or according to Zhao Deqing, he has no intention of doing this.

He's just practicing qi for a level of cultivation.

For a moment, I really didn't think about what kind of situation would be beneficial to him.

speak up.

Except for the girl Zhao Yongwen, the third elder is the tribe that Zhao Yongqi has contacted the most since he cultivated immortality.

Zhao Yongqi is also aware of his kindness to him.

But did not expect.

At this moment, the Third Elder was the one with the strongest opposition.

This can be seen.

The third elder really has the Zhao family in his heart, and he has a clear distinction between public and private.

He believes that a ten-year-old boy cannot be the patriarch, and he will object to this regardless of whether the boy is Zhao Yongqi or not.

Zhao Shouyan naturally knew the sincerity of the third elder.

He didn't really get angry, but just sneered, and took the lead for Zhao Yongqi: "When I took over as patriarch, there were more people who thought like you, Zhao Deqing, that I was only 13 years old and could not be the patriarch. "

"All right."

He didn't give the third elder the chance to continue speaking.

Immediately made a decision: "I let Yong Qi take the position of patriarch. Naturally, I have my reasons, and you will naturally understand in the future. What you have to do is to do your best to assist the next patriarch, and don't report any dissatisfaction."

He looked at the third elder, Zhao Deqing.

With earnestness and heart: "Third Elder, since you are not satisfied with Yong Qi, you should share his worries and solve his problems; I will not be in Zhao's house in the future, so don't let any such unbearable things happen."

The third elder understands.

These words the patriarch said.

It is almost an account of the "funeral affairs".

He did not continue to speak the language of rebuttal, but his expression was moved, with tears in his eyes: "Don't worry, the patriarch, the Zhao family will do their best to assist the patriarch."

"Me too. I will definitely cooperate with Fourteenth Brother. If Fourteenth Brother says to fight East, I will never fight West."

"Don't worry, the patriarch, everyone will do their best and will not cause trouble for the next patriarch."

Other people in the Weishan Palace also expressed their opinions.

that's it.

Without Zhao Yongqi expressing any opinions, he unexpectedly became the next patriarch of the Zhao family in a daze.

Subsequently.

The patriarch explained a few more insignificant things.

Then they dismissed everyone, leaving Zhao Yongqi alone in the Weishan Hall.
