FULL NOVELXO Chapter 2881
Chapter 2881 You Want to Offend the Reclusive Families and Elder Leo for Him?
The elders spoke softly to each other.
Ji Hongyuan glared at Qiao Nian and clenched his fists. "Everyone, we can't be led by the nose by an outsider. It's a sure bet that Ziyin will take over as the Patriarch. How can we change our minds just because of a few words from her? Isn't she making a fool of the Patriarch's position?!"
The second elder, Ji Ziyin's supporter earlier, remained silent and did not support him.
The fourth elder frowned. "Sixth Elder, Ji Nan has the Patriarch badge! According to the family rules, whoever has the badge is the Ji family's Patriarch. Don't tell me you're muddle-headed in your old age and don't even know this?"
"The Patriarch's badge is an inanimate object, but humans are alive! How can we living people be led by the nose by an inanimate object!" The veins on Ji Hongyuan's forehead bulged, and his mouth blistered with anxiety.
However, the elders had already decided.
The fourth elder ignored him. "Stop talking. Rules are rules!"
Then, the fourth elder took the lead and walked toward Ji Nan. He patted his shoulder twice before looking at Xie Yun.
He sighed softly. "Ji Nan, you haven't systematically learned about black gunpowder. We have our concerns too. Can you understand the elders?"
"I understand." Ji Nan was calm, but his stubbornness was exactly the same as Ji Lingfeng's. "I can give up the Patriarch position, but I definitely can't let Ji Ziyin and the reclusive families take charge of the Ji family. We of the Ji family have our own pride and dignity!"
The fourth elder was slightly stunned. "You."
Ji Nan looked at him steadily, obviously thinking the same thing.
The fourth elder immediately put down his hand and smiled bitterly. "Forget it. This is the result of our discussion. You and Ji Ziyin won't take over as the next Patriarch for now.
"We haven't found the Patriarch's corpse, which means the Patriarch might still be alive. Let's search again. We'll talk again if we really can't find him....."
Ji Nan's tense back muscles suddenly relaxed, and then he raised his hand. "I have no objections."
Ji Hongyuan could not accept this result.
He was so angry. "Fourth Elder, everyone is saying that the Patriarch died at sea. If we don't hurry up and choose a new Patriarch..."
Fourth Elder shot him an impartial look. "This matter is settled!"
In terms of seniority, Ji Hongyuan was inferior to the fourth elder. Even if he was so angry that his throat burned, he did not dare to argue with the other party head-on.
"But how are we going to explain to Ziyin and the reclusive families backing her? Elder Leo also came to the independent continent."
All the elders were afraid of Leonard.
The fourth elder and the second elder exchanged glances and frowned.

Ji Hongyuan was furious. He pretended that Qiao Nian did not
exist and continued to threaten the other elders. If we rashly offend the reclusive families, and with the
Patriarch not around, we have no chance of winning! The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest
