Chapter 232 My Fate, I Decide Itself!
In the Xie family's meeting hall, at this time, many elders were arguing fiercely over whether Xie Chen should be handed over to the Wang family.

"This little bastard has caused our Xie family to suffer a lot, so we must not let it go lightly! Handing it over to the Wang family is considered cheap for him, and this is already a great favor to him. How dare he object?!"

It was Xie Bai, the Ninth Elder who was speaking. He had always hated Xie Chen, especially after being ambushed and killed in the Jizhou Gorge, he and Xie Chen were already incompatible, life and death enemies.

"That's right! The reason why the Wang family launched an offensive against our Xie family this time is all because of this kid. Hand him over and let him bear the wrath of the Wang family. This is what he deserves! If he voluntarily quits the family and goes to the Wang family to plead guilty, he will be punished. It's a redemption!"

The fifth elder, Xie Su, was in charge of law enforcement. He was always ruthless and strict. A cold light flashed in his eyes. Xie Chen made a big mistake this time. In his opinion, he must be punished!He failed to punish him last time, and he must not be allowed to escape this time.

The last time the members of the Wang family failed to capture Xie Chen, Xie Chen was questioned by several elders when he returned to the family, and even wanted to punish him, but he was rendered speechless by Xie Chen's refutation, and the matter was let go.

But today is different, this time the Xie family is in danger, the Wang family is aggressive, making the Xie family very passive, and their request is only to hand over Xie Chen, which makes the minds of several elders active again.

"I agree! This brat has caused our Xie family's business to be depressed, and many shops are facing closure. If this continues, our Xie family will collapse! We must stop this trend from developing as soon as possible, as long as we can keep the foundation of my Xie family , what is it to sacrifice a little child!"

The third elder, Xie Zuofeng who was in charge of foreign affairs and business, sneered.

The one who was directly affected by this incident was the Third Elder, who was in charge of the Xie family's property and source of income.

During this period of time, the Wang family united with several major families in the Hongdu Mansion to attack the Xie family, and the Xie family quickly fell into a helpless situation. Many other families, sects, and forces saw that the situation was not good, and kept their distance from the Xie family. Watch the situation develop.

They were not optimistic about Xie's family, which made Xie Zuofeng bump into walls everywhere, far from his usual prestige and dignity, and received a lot of blank stares and cynicism, which made him lose face and hated Xie Chen to the core.

The person who presided over this meeting was the second elder of the family, Xie Minzheng, who was in charge of internal affairs. He managed the family's affairs, large and small, and had the right to make decisions.

Xie Minzheng is over sixty years old, with gray hair, wearing a gray robe, thin body, small eyes, eyes as deep as a pool, and the ancient well without waves, giving people a feeling of being impenetrable and scheming.

He didn't speak, but looked at the other elders.

Among the elders present, in addition to the Third Elder Foreign Affairs Elder Xie Zuofeng, the Fifth Elder Law Enforcement Elder Xie Su, the Ninth Elder Xie Bai, the Fourth Elder Chuangong Xie Yu, the Sixth Elder Logistics Elder Xie Jingping, and the Eighth Elder Xie An.

As for the First Elder Sacrifice Elder Xie Zhen, and the Seventh Elder Guardian Elder Xie Wuji, both of them were absent.

Xie Zhen was in charge of guarding the ancestral hall, while Xie Wuji was in charge of the Martial Arts Pavilion, so they had no time to be there.

Therefore, the final decision depends on the opinions of Xie Yu, Xie Jingping, and Xie An.

"Xie Bai, since Xie Chen came to the Zong Clan, you have repeatedly made things difficult for him and tried every means to punish him. What kind of enmity do you have with him? Where did he offend you?"

Eighth Elder Xie An deliberately asked in confusion.

Xie Bai was speechless for a while, of course he couldn't tell about the murder of Xie Chen in the Jizhou Canyon, he just said: "I'm just talking about the facts! He should be responsible for this matter!"

"Hmph! Discussing the facts? Are you really just discussing the facts? Xie Su, Xie Zuofeng, how dare you say that none of you have any selfish intentions, and Xie Chen should take responsibility for just discussing the facts?!"

Xie An slapped the table, stood up, and questioned Xie Bai, Xie Su, and Xie Zuofeng loudly.

His tall body stood up, his white robe and beard fluttered, and his momentum was astonishing.

Stared at by his sharp eyes, Xie Bai, Xie Su, and Xie Zuofeng all talked about him a little bit, not daring to look at each other.

Xie An knew at a glance that they were guilty, and there must be an ulterior purpose behind it, but he didn't know it for the time being.

He sits down.

The hall was silent for a while.

Xie Zuofeng broke the silence, and said: "Anyway, this incident started because of Xie Chen, and it must end on him! Our Xie family has already paid too much for this, so we can no longer protect him!"

"I object!"

Xie Jingping stood up suddenly, her usually soft gaze became firm at this moment.

"Xie Chen has already explained this matter. He injured Qian De, the talisman maker, because he was forced to do so, and he had no choice but to destroy the Wang family's talisman shop. He fought against the Wang family because the other party wanted to take his life, and he had no choice but to resist. In other words, what’s wrong? Since it’s right, we should support it, so why should he be responsible for it?”

Xie Jingping glanced at Xie Bai, Xie Su, Xie Zuofeng, Xie Minzheng and others with calm eyes, and said bluntly: "You talk about the facts, but are you really talking about the facts? I think your words are full of prejudice! I don't like Xie Chen. Prejudice of people of clan origin! Prejudice against the unknown identity of his biological father!"

"But his life experience is unknown, what is his fault? He doesn't know it himself, so you make things difficult for him? You know, he was chosen by the ancestors of the sword god to inherit the mantle, and he was recognized by many ancestor spirits. If you do this, is it different from rebelling against your ancestors?!"

In the family, it is disrespectful to disobey the ancestors, Xie Bai, Xie Su and others are speechless, dare not speak out.

They admitted that they were prejudiced against Xie Chen's actions. Because of various private grievances and some ulterior motives, they wished that Xie Chen would die. When the time comes, Xie Chen will undoubtedly die.

"Elder Jingping's words are true. Xie Su, Xie Zuofeng, I think you guys are all foolish. One of you rose from the branch clan to the sub-clan, and won the first place in the assessment in the main clan, defeating many outstanding people. My son, someone who can fight dozens of rounds with the deacon of the Wang family of the enemy, such an outstanding person, you don't protect him, but always want to kill him, what are you thinking? Are you thinking about the future of the Xie family?!"

Xie Yu, the elder of the Fourth Elder Chuangong, spoke up. He admired Xie Chen very much, so he stood up to speak for Xie Chen at this time.

There is nothing to say about Xie Chen's talent and strength, it is obvious to all in the clan, Xie Bai and others have nothing to say.

In terms of talent and potential, Xie Chen is indeed outstanding among tens of thousands of young students.

"The dignified Xie family, it is really a joke to sacrifice a younger generation in exchange for a peaceful life!"

Xie Yu snorted, closed his eyes, and resumed his lazy posture again.

For a while, the scene was a little dull.

Xie Minzheng frowned, looking at it like this, supporting the handing over of Xie Chen was comparable to those who opposed it.

It's really difficult.

He didn't expect that Xie Jingping, Xie An, and Xie Yu, who usually don't care much about family affairs and are generally neutral, would value such a small junior. How could that kid Xie Chen be able to do it?

Several elders were in a stalemate, but Xie Chen's voice sounded outside the door.

"Thank you Elder Yu, Elder Jingping, Elder An, the three elders have spoken up for me! Xie Chen is very grateful!"

Before Xie Chen arrived at the conference hall, he had detected what happened in the hall through Fu Lao's spiritual sense, and he listened to the words of several elders one by one.

While being furious at Xie Bai, Xie Su, Xie Zuofeng and others for distorting the facts, fabricating charges, and trying to put him to death, they also defended and defended him at the three elders Xie Yu, Xie Jingping, and Xie An, and did not hesitate to fight with Xie Yu. Zuo Feng and the others faced each other with red faces, feeling moved and ashamed.

He stepped into the spacious meeting hall, and saw the second elder Xie Minzheng sitting at the front, with the other six elders sitting on each side.

"Xie Chen?"

Seeing Xie Chen walk in, Xie Su was immediately displeased, and scolded: "Our elders are discussing matters, what are you doing here? Get out!"

As Xie Su said, he flicked his robe sleeves, and rushed towards Xie Chen with strong energy.

A strong energy came oncoming, like a gust of wind blowing by.

The true qi of the warriors in the late stage of the Gang Qi Realm is very important, and the others didn't realize it. Even if Xie Jingping and others wanted to help, it was too late.

Unexpectedly, when this "strong wind" blew past, Xie Chen remained motionless, the qi was blocked when it reached a few feet in front of him, and only made his clothes flutter.

"Ok?"

Xie Su didn't expect that Xie Chen would not be affected at all, and he couldn't help feeling a little bit surprised.

You know, he spent a lot of energy on this move just now, and ordinary people can't stop it, especially he is only a junior.

The others were also slightly surprised, but they didn't know how much strength Xie Su had used, so they didn't think much about it.

Xie Jingping and Xie Yu were relieved to see that Xie Chen was safe and sound.

"Fifth elder, you said that I am not qualified to participate in this meeting. This is a matter of my life and death. Don't I even have the right to control my life and death? Am I just letting you decide my outcome? I am a child of the Xie family, but you Don't forget, I, Xie Chen, am a person! I am a living person! I have the right to decide my own life and death!"

Xie Chen was firm, and his loud words spread throughout the hall, making Xie Su's complexion ugly.

Following Xie Chen, there were also many younger generations who were shocked when they heard Xie Chen's words, obviously agreeing with his point of view.

No one wants to be a piece of meat on the chopping board and be slaughtered by others. Even a junior with low strength should have the right to decide his own life and death. This Fifth Elder is really too cruel and humane.

Xie Minzheng knew that this made Xie Su lose a lot of hearts. He sighed secretly, and said, "You are Xie Chen? You can participate in our discussion. Others are not allowed to interrupt without my order!"

Xie Minzheng glanced at the people outside the door, and he also knew that there was no way to stop the clansmen who followed, otherwise these young people didn't know what they would think.

Xie Chen took a step forward, and said solemnly: "I, Xie Chen's life, I control myself! No one can control it!"

"you!"

When Xie Su heard Xie Chen say this, he immediately became furious and wanted to refute.

Xie Minzheng stretched out his hand to stop Xie Su, his face was gloomy, he looked at Xie Chen with deep eyes, and said in a low voice: "Xie Chen, you know the current situation of the family, if you are not handed over, the Wang family will treat us If you pursue and fight fiercely, our Xie family will suffer even greater losses, and you have the heart to see our family decline or even be destroyed because of you?!"

As soon as Xie Minzheng's words came out, everyone was startled, the scene was silent for a while, and needles could be heard.

This is a heartbreaking statement!It is tantamount to putting the responsibility for the extermination of the clan on Xie Chen alone.

One improper response, Xie Chen may become the accusation of everyone, and become the chief culprit for the decline of the Xie family!
