9737 Chapter 9736-
Only a core member like Wang Tianwen knew how powerful this person was. He was a true-blue giant at the peak of the realm of perfection. Back then, he was a legendary figure who had left his name in Jianghai Academy. However, he had to leave the Academy due to some unforeseen circumstances. For the sake of his half-dead daughter, he had lowered his status and settled down in the talisman realm Wang family.
A person like him was a first class existence in the entire Jianghai city. It was also because of his existence that the Wang family of formation talismans had more confidence in dealing with the treacherous situation.
After all, even if they didn’t do anything and just stood there, such top-notch combat forces would have a deterrent force like a nuclear bomb. Their strategic value was something that tens or even hundreds of powerhouses at the peak of the late stage of the consummate level couldn’t compare to.
Wang Tianwen might have been rude, but if Yan Jiang was standing in front of him, he would not have said anything unpleasant. In the past, he had tried to get on Yan Jiang’s good side, but he had never responded.
Jiang Ziheng was well aware of this, but when he heard this, he only grinned and changed the subject.”Yan Jiang is the commander of the guards after all. Even if he doesn’t have any merits, he has worked hard for so many years. I think if uncle Wen wants to pursue the matter, he should push the blame onto Yuan Xiong.”
“I heard that Lin Yi’s doing very well in the repeat division, and he’s already one of the five greats. Is that true?” Tianwen asked.
With just one sentence, his tough-looking nature was exposed.
He now suspected that Lin Yi’s attack on his son was revenge for taking over the talisman making society. More accurately, it was a warning.
It was true that he looked down on Lin Yi’s lowly status, but the fact that Lin Yi was able to make a name for himself in a place like Jianghai Academy meant that he had to be strong. If they were to go head to head with each other, he knew that no matter how rich he was, it would be like an egg striking a rock.
“Uncle Wen, you only know a part of it.”
Jiang Ziheng sneered,”I’ve dealt with Lin Yi a few times. He’s not very strong, but he’s good at sucking up to people. He’s only able to make a name for himself in the repeat division this time because of Banshi Luo. Banshi Luo even personally fought with the Sea King Xiang Yusheng in order to help him rise to the top!”
Wang Tianwen’s eyelids twitched,’Banshi Luo? Would a legendary figure like that even look at a lowly person like him?”
“That’s why I said this kid is good at sucking up to people. If not for that, how could he be one of the retained five Giants with his strength at the middle stage of the Big Shot’s great fulfilment? it’s the five Giants, when did it become so low?”
“That seat was obviously reserved for Banshi Luo by the people from the repeat Academy. Lin Yi is just a puppet that Banshi Luo pushed onto the stage,” Jiang Ziheng sneered.
He didn’t know that Lin Yi was now a Big Shot at the peak of the middle stage of the complete realm, nor did he know that the city Lord’s mansion received the report ten minutes after he left the Wang house.
“I was wondering how he could be promoted with his strength. Even if he was talented enough to challenge those who were higher than him, he couldn’t have jumped so many levels at once, right?”
Realization dawned on Wang Tianwen.”Now that you’ve analyzed it this way, it’s all correct. If you didn’t tell us, our Wang family would really have been fooled by that kid who used his connections to intimidate others. We might even have to go through another round of swindling and cheating. When that happens, our losses would be huge!”
Jiang Ziheng laughed.”The repeat school is too closed off, so it gives those clowns the chance to swindle people. If the seal formation Wang family’s reputation falls into his hands, they’ll become the laughingstock of the other families.”
“Hmph!” Wang Tianwen snorted coldly.”Just you wait. I’ll teach him a lesson tomorrow!”
“Then I’ll wait and see.”
Jiang Ziheng raised his cup with a smile. He didn’t know that the city Lord’s mansion had already made their move, but as long as Lin Yi fell, he’d be happy to see it!
The next day, the Wang family’s ancestral hall was bustling with people. All the influential figures of the various branches and lineages were present.
Although this voting meeting was only targeted at the talisman making society in name, everyone knew that this was actually a rehearsal for the family head election.
Once the voting conference was held smoothly, Wang Tianwen’s already high reputation would instantly rise to a new level. At that time, no matter how much tricks Wang Tianfeng had, he would only be left in the dust, and the election for the family head would completely lose its suspense.
After all, even the Grand Elder had to take into account the public opinion of the majority of the family. Otherwise, once they stood on the opposite side, the Halo of the Grand Elder would become dim and irrelevant.
Everyone respects you as the Grand Elder. If they don’t respect you, no one can order you around with the title of Grand Elder.
All the figures consciously took their seats in their designated positions. Because the Grand Elder and other family elders did not participate in daily affairs, they did not attend this meeting. The two most popular candidates for this family election were sitting at the top.
Wang Tianwen, Wang Tianfeng.
To be a popular candidate for the family head, this in itself represented the status and strength of the two people. They each held the greatest power under the family head, and this situation was also destined that this voting meeting was bound to be tit for tat, and the intensity of it would definitely be far more intense than before.
However, there was a special guest this time-Lin Yi, who represented the talisman society.
However, as soon as Lin Yi showed up, someone started the tempo.
“This is really interesting. A mere servant can actually enter the ancestral hall in such a grand manner. When did the rules of my talisman royal family become so degrading?”
“That’s right. I heard that this servant doesn’t know his place. Yesterday, he even knocked out the young master of the clan and hasn’t woken up yet. He’s very impressive.”
As the group spoke, Wang Tianwen’s group quickly agreed, and Lin Yi immediately became the target of everyone.
“I’ll go then?”Lin Yi smiled.
Wang Tianfeng also did not speak. He turned to look at Wang Tianwen with interest, and Wang Tianwen was suddenly put in a difficult position.
It would be fine if Lin Yi didn’t show up, but now that he did, they’d just kicked him out. This was a huge problem, and Lin Yi could officially cut off his ties with house Wang after today.
At the end of the day, he wasn’t really a slave of the Wang family. He was just a bodyguard hired by the Wang family, just like Yan Jiang, who was the guard commander.
Would the Wang clan dare to call Yan Jiang a servant?
“If you want to go, then go. Don’t tell me there’s someone who’ll keep you?”
Those who didn’t know the truth were still mocking Lin Yi. They thought that once Lin Yi left, the society would be like sheep waiting to be slaughtered. They could eat whatever they wanted and split whatever they wanted.
In the end, Wang Tianwen, the most unyielding Big Shot they had expected, took the initiative to speak.””Xiao Lin, you must be joking. You and your talisman making society are the main characters of today’s voting meeting. The reason why we called everyone here today is mainly to find the best win-win path for the talisman making society and the family, so that everyone will be satisfied.”
