I have a big problem with my past life

Chapter 368
"Clap clap clap!"

In the silent meeting hall, crisp applause suddenly resounded.

Many clan elders turned their heads in astonishment, wanting to see who was so rebellious and dared to support Dongfang Qingyue at such a time.You must know that the marriage with the Nangong family has been approved by most of the elders in the family, and the current meeting hall is full of elders who advocate marriage.

Then, these people saw the applauding person sitting there. It was the current head of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Wuwei, whose temples were all pale from the years.

"Wuwei! What are you doing?!"

The senior elder among the clan elders, who was also the former Patriarch of the Dongfang Family, immediately spoke out and scolded Dongfang Wuwei, who was a junior, and was very dissatisfied with his behavior.

Although the fallen soul lamp of the ancestor of the Eastern family has been extinguished, it is not like the rights of the other three major families are controlled by the ancestor, but the core power of the Eastern family has always been controlled by a group of clan elders, and the patriarch Dongfang Wuwei also Holds a small part of the family power.

As the head of the family, Dongfang Wuwei stood up slowly, looking at the group of respected elders in the family in front of him, his expression was calm and composed: "As the head of the family, I just think that Qingyue's words are indeed quite reasonable. A family that has been rotting from the inside, talking about how to restore the family's former glory is just adding to the joke."

"Damn it!"

If what Dongfang Qingyue said before had already hit the pain points of these clan elders, then the words of Dongfang Wuwei, who is now the current Patriarch, are tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, and he was immediately scolded by the clan elders .

These clan elders never thought that not only Dongfang Qingyue, who was usually taciturn and obeyed all the family's arrangements, suddenly lost her mind and chose to disobey.Even Dongfang Wuwei, who has been the head of the family for nearly a hundred years and has always obeyed the decisions of the elders in the family, chose to turn his face at this time.

In fact, Dongfang Wuwei didn't have this name before, but since changing the name, he has always lived up to his name, mediocre and ineffective.

Many years ago, there were actually many elites from the Dongfang family competing for the position of the new head of the family. The seemingly mediocre and inconspicuous Dongfang Wuwei.

Rather than saying that he defeated the other contenders to become the Patriarch, it is better to say that the clan elders chose him after a decision and bestowed him with the Patriarch position.

At the beginning, the reason why the clan elders chose him as the new head of the family was because of his mediocrity, and he would not be like some aggressive competitors, always thinking about making drastic changes to the family. .

And shortly after becoming the Patriarch, he changed his name to Dongfang Wuwei.

This inaction is the inaction of inaction.

In the following decades, as the clan elders had expected, the new Patriarch selected this time never acted arbitrarily, and had no objection to the decisions discussed by the clan elders. He has never stood up to speak out any objection words, and has been silent and doing nothing.

But he never expected that at such a time, he would stand up and say such rebellious words in public...

The so-called family has rotted from the inside, isn't this clearly mocking the youngest of the family?

Dongfang Wuwei looked calmly at the clan elders in front of him. If he was asked to describe his mood at the moment, it would be a cool word.

After all, these words have been suffocated in my heart for decades, and now I say them in one breath, it is so cool!
Originally, he had already thought that these words held in his heart would never be uttered in this life, and would be taken into the grave along with him and buried deep under the Nine Springs.

If you want to talk about the reason, it is probably because you were awakened by the eyes of the junior Dongfang Qingyue in front of you.

Because the look in his eyes is so similar to his former self.

In the past, I also had many ambitions, ideals, and passion. I thought about regaining the glory of the family in the future, but these things finally disappeared before the cold reality.

To put it more pleasantly, Dongfang Wuwei knew how to think rationally, and knew that the Dongfang aristocratic family controlled by this group of self-proclaimed elders had already started to rot from the inside, and it was a fool's dream to try to cure it.

Since it can't be done, why bother?

That being the case, doing nothing is fine...

To put it harshly, it was Dongfang Wuwei himself who was timid and did not have the courage to confront it, so he chose to retreat, forbear, and obey.

He was actually very clear about this in his heart, but he kept pretending that he didn't know anything.

But today, when I saw Dongfang Qingyue, a little girl from the younger generation, she knew what she couldn't do, but she couldn't pretend that she didn't know anything.

At this time, he looked at Dongfang Qingyue, who seemed to be shining brightly under the light, and couldn't help but think of those clan elders who were willing to sacrifice everything to pave the way for her more than ten years ago...

I also remembered the relieved smiles on the corners of the mouths of those clan elders when they died after exhausting their lifespan.

That night, Dongfang Wuwei stood alone in front of the tombstones of these clan elders, looking at the names on the tombstones, and fell silent for a long night.

Because these clan elders are the Dongfang family that is in turmoil today, among the many clan elders who are greedy for life and afraid of death, the last light left.They are willing to sacrifice everything for a seemingly illusory goal, so that the family can be reborn in another way.

The so-called living to death is probably the case.

But now, the last ray of light is also extinguished...

Originally, Dongfang Wuwei thought so.

But not long ago, the dazzling light he saw again rekindled on Dongfang Qingyue.

So, he laughed and clapped his hands, almost crying.

In an instant, he understood many things and figured out many things.

If you know that you can't do something and don't do it, then you will never be able to do it. Only when someone does it before you can do it, then it is possible to create something that can be done.

Therefore, for the first time in his life, he stood up.

"A group of immortal..."

Looking at the clan elders in front of him, Dongfang Wuwei said so.

As if he was afraid that they might not hear clearly, he repeated the sentence in a louder voice: "I'm talking about you, a group of old and immortal idiots!"

The hall was silent.

Everyone stared dumbfounded at the current Patriarch with frosty temples. They never expected that he would utter such vulgar words as "stupid X" in the secular world in public.

Because this is actually completely different from his identity and the calm image he presents.

"It's so fucking comfortable! I've wanted to scold you bastards to death for a long time, I must have a good time today! Ahhh!"

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Dongfang Wuwei spat on the ground, and then spoke fearlessly.

It doesn't look like an old man who has been the head of the family for many years, and he looks like the kind of little rascal who hangs around in the streets.

So there is a saying that goes well, if you don't erupt in silence, you will die in silence, and now this old man has erupted.

"Whether you agree or not, I must leave today!"

On the other side, Dongfang Qingyue, who had been silent all this time, also walked towards the outside of the conference hall.

"Catch them both!"

The leader of the clan elder also reacted and took the lead to give orders.

"Yes! Put Dongfang Wuwei aside from the patriarch and throw her into prison for punishment! As for Dongfang Qingyue, after catching her, use the Soul Losing Curse to make her follow her advice and get married!" Another clan elder also said.

The so-called Lost Soul Curse is a technique that can make people lose their sense of autonomy, like a puppet version of being at the mercy of others. It seems that this time the two sides are completely tearing their skins apart.

Immediately, several senior clan elders stopped in front of Dongfang Qingyue and wanted to capture her.

Dongfang Qingyue stopped in her tracks, looked at the roadblocker in front of her, and then slowly drew out the Qingyue Excalibur from her waist.

"Those who stop me! Die!"

She faced each other before, and said coldly.

Perhaps it was because she used to live in Jianfeng when she was young, and was accompanied by the sword master who was the master. Today, after the death of the sword master, as an apprentice, she even speaks the same as the sword master in the past.

It's just that these words, in the ears of others, seem extremely ridiculous.

Everyone knows that Dongfang Qingyue's cultivation is only a glimpse of the Nascent Soul Realm. There are several clan veterans in the Daoist Realm in the field, and there is no possibility of victory. The death of the so-called blocker is just a joke That's all.

However, at this moment, at Dongfang Qingyue's eyebrows, the imprint of Qinglian that was born with her in the world suddenly shone brightly.

A phantom of a flawless green lotus appeared in her body with a monstrous yet unsophisticated majesty. Even the surrounding void couldn't bear such power, and the space seemed to be shattered inch by inch.

What is even more frightening is that Dongfang Qingyue's own cultivation base has also been rising steadily. In an instant, she has entered the realm of asking questions, and it is still rising endlessly.

Moreover, it seemed that she had broken through some inner shackles of cultivation, and the Qingyue Divine Sword in her hand seemed to come alive, and the sword spirit all over her body was awe-inspiring.

"What kind of monster are you...?"

A clan elder was so frightened that he couldn't speak fluently, and he backed away in horror. He had never seen such a weird thing in this world, and he was able to pass several cultivation stages in an instant, and reach the peak in an instant.

Moreover, this kind of sword intent is truly terrifying, just like the man who is called the sword master in the world is still alive.

Dongfang Qingyue ignored this person, but looked down at the Qingyue Excalibur in her palm, and whispered to herself: "This is... the clear heart of the sword that Master once said?"

Ever since she made this decision and uttered those words today, she has vaguely felt that while she was making the decision, it was as if a certain barrier had been broken, and the whole person had regained a new life and became comfortable.

As for this green lotus, she didn't know why.

Ever since the master slashed the sky-shattering sword that night, causing the world to change, she saw this green lotus in her dream that night.

Although she had dreamed about this green lotus before, it was never as clear as last night, it seemed that she could touch it easily, and she even had some strange illusions, it seemed that this green lotus was closely connected with her, just like her own body. .

But... none of that matters now.

The important thing is that she can get out of here and find her sweetheart.
