Chapter 241 Meeting someone

"Yes, the Hao family's three Shinto Lords have fallen one after another, and their strength has been greatly reduced. This can be regarded as an opportunity."

"That makes sense. We, the Ouyang clan, should also move forward."

…

"That's right. Besides, they are now enmity with the demon clan and cannot be tough internally."

"Having said that, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Elders, please don't forget that there are Bai Bai and Qin clans under the Hao clan. It's better for our Ouyang clan not to take the lead."

When Ouyang Ruoyu heard this, he showed a look of approval, and continued what the great elder Ouyang said: "The great elder is right. Our Ouyang clan has been the best in the mainland with elixirs for generations, but our own military force is far behind other clans.

"Besides, if you are really in trouble with the Hao family at this time, you are making wedding clothes for others."

The elder who spoke first couldn't help but said: "Clan leader, why do you need to be so arrogant that other people's ambitions can destroy your own prestige? Although the Ouyang clan is not strong in force, it has been on good terms with all clans for generations. With just one order, there are countless small clans and individual people.

When we work together, we are not without our strength."

Ouyang Ruoyu's face had already darkened. After the elder finished speaking, she first sneered, and then said: "Brother, you are so courageous!"

Whenever the clan leader is angry, she will address her by seniority, but whether it is clan elder, clan younger brother, clan uncle or clan uncle, it means that she is very angry.

All the elders were silent for a while, and the sound of a needle dropping could be heard in the hall.

Sure enough, the clan leader Ouyang Ruoyu stood up, walked to the fourth elder who had just spoken, stared at him and said: "As a dignified Taoist monarch and an elder of the clan, don't you know that external forces are unreliable?"

It’s just that the fourth elder is also a jerk. Although Ouyang Ruoyu is really angry, he insists: "A clan is different from an individual. A clan cannot develop and grow by itself. In the same way, it needs external support.

"

Ouyang Ruoyu stared at him, took a deep breath, and then looked around at the other seven elders: "What do you think?"

Great Elder: "Otherwise, borrowing strength may be used to intimidate others, but it will not be the foundation of a clan."

Second Elder: "What the patriarch said makes sense."

Third Elder: "What the Great Elder said makes sense."

…

The Eighth Elder nodded: "That makes sense."

Ouyang Ruoyu snorted coldly, looked at the First Elder and said, "In that case, please explain it to the Fourth Elder in detail, and make sure he truly understands it."

After saying this, he waved his sleeves and left.

The great elder quickly said: "Clan leader, there is still something that has not been discussed."

Ouyang Ruoyu frowned. She had just realized an elixir recipe that she had been thinking about for a long time. Just as she was about to start the furnace, she was brought in to discuss the matter. After a lot of reasoning, she thought she could go back to make elixirs, but she didn't expect that the matter was not over yet?

"What else?"

Seeing her expression, the Great Elder knew that she was already a little impatient, so he made a long story short and told the Hao family to invite the nine major clans to discuss matters in the outside world.

Hearing that it was related to this matter, Ouyang Ruoyu became interested. She glanced at the Fourth Elder and what she said surprised everyone: "Those people have been living in the Floating Light Continent for more than ten thousand years. Now it is time to employ people."

Now, wouldn’t bringing them back just in time to strengthen our clan?”

Living in exile?

What is exile? It is clearly exile, okay?

This time it was the Great Elder who was the first to raise objections: "Clan Chief, this is inappropriate."

Ouyang Ruo and Liu raised their eyebrows slightly: "Why do you think the Great Elder is wrong?"

"Those people are all people who made mistakes and were exiled. They have been exterminated long ago. It is a big mistake for them to keep the Ouyang surname without authorization. We will just not pursue it. How can we let them come back?"

The fourth elder quickly agreed: "That's right, they are no longer members of my Ouyang family. The idea of ​​bringing them back to the clan is really absurd."

Ouyang Ruoyu glanced at him: "What's wrong?"

Of course it's ridiculous.

The fourth elder cursed in his heart, but he did not dare to say it out loud. He just lowered his head and said: "It is not known whether people born in the wilderness outside the territory have spiritual roots. Even if they do, they are probably useless."

"Yes, I heard that there are no spirit-bearing fruit trees in that place. There are only one person with spiritual roots, and the spiritual energy is very thin."

"In a place like this, how can we help?"

"It makes sense, the clan leader can't do this."

…

"Besides, those people who were exiled must have resentment in their hearts. How can they be used by the clan?"

Ouyang Ruoyu had a sullen face and nodded briefly: "What you said makes sense."

The elders immediately felt relieved, and then heard her continue:

“It’s just that I had this idea after careful consideration:

First, although they made mistakes and were exiled, they still have the same blood as us. No matter how big their mistake is, they should have paid off after so many years;

Secondly, the disaster does not affect the descendants. The original generation has long since fallen, and those who are alive now are their descendants. They may not even know the beginning and end of the matter, let alone say they are wrong;

Thirdly, it is not easy for cultivators to continue their bloodline. Since there is no pregnant spirit fruit tree, they are all naturally conceived. If they can return to the clan, their own qualifications will not be obvious, and the children born in the future may not be so.

;

Fourth, some time ago you said that the Jiaocheng Clan had proposed to take back the clansmen living outside the territory. If the Yao Clan is so affectionate, how can we, the Ouyang Clan, lag behind?"

The fourth elder muttered: "The Jiaozhen tribe is really living in exile, not exiled sinners."

Ouyang Ruoyu ignored him and only looked at the other elders: "These are my thoughts."

Having said this, she looked at the great elder again: "Hao's invitation to discuss the matter, has there been an agreed time?"

The great elder nodded: "The proposed time is twenty days later, and he also said that if there is time inconvenience, the time can be negotiated again."

Ouyang Ruo nodded and then continued: "In that case, all the elders, please go back and think carefully about what I said today. In ten days, we will discuss the matter outside the territory and go to the Hao family on time for the appointment in twenty days.

"

The great elder nodded, and the other elders also hurriedly stood up.

Everyone watched Ouyang Ruoyu leave in a hurry. They didn't start discussing again until they confirmed that she was gone.

Seeing that the Great Elder was about to leave, the Fourth Elder quickly walked to his side: "Great Elder, what do you think?"

Seeing several elders looking over, the eldest elder touched his beard and said: "The patriarch has given me ten days, I want to go back and think about it carefully."

"What else is there to think about?"

The fourth elder muttered, but he did not dare to stop the elder when he wanted to leave. Instead, the fifth elder beside him said: "I heard that the Hao clan imprisoned several minor monks from outside the territory, and one of them has a compound surname.

Ouyang, why don't you bring the person over and show it to the patriarch."

The fourth elder's eyes lit up: "Seriously?"

The fifth elder nodded: "Of course it's true, but I don't know if the Hao family will agree to borrow someone."

"What kind of loan? Now Hao still wants to say nothing about it?"
