“Nangong Chen, you’re talking nonsense!” Lady Zhou, who came from a prominent family, was always hot-tempered. At this moment, she pointed at Nangong Chen’s nose and scolded, “The son inherits his father’s position. Even if my husband is not around, the position of the family head belongs to my son. You have no right to be so presumptuous!”
“Sister-in-law is right. The position of the family head should belong to my nephew. However, my nephew has been married for ten years and has no children. Even if he adopts a son in the future, he can’t inherit the position of the family head, lest the Nangong family’s legacy falls into the hands of others. Since my nephew can’t keep the position of the family head, it’s better to give it up now and hand over the family head token!” After Nangong Lei finished speaking, he looked at Lady Wen impudently.
Lady Wen’s face instantly turned pale. She lowered her head and could not speak.
Nangong Mufeng was furious. “I will only hand over the position of Family Head to you after I die! Now, get out of my father’s room immediately. If anyone dares to disturb my father again, I won’t let them off easily!”
“Since Nephew has said so, then don’t blame us for being impolite.” Nangong Lie was obviously waiting for Nangong Mufeng to say this. He raised his eyebrows, “According to the rules of the Nangong family, the new family head must be tested by the current head of the family if he wants to inherit the position. Unfortunately, big brother is now on his last legs and doesn’t have the strength to do so. In that case, we will follow the family rules. The two most respected elders in the family, your third uncle and I, will compete with you. As long as you can defeat us, you can inherit the position of the family head.”
“You guys are too impudent. My father isn’t dead yet!” Nangong Mufeng gritted his teeth in anger.
“Hehe, he’s just hanging on by a thread.” Nangong Shan taunted Nangong Mufeng. “If big brother is afraid of fighting with the two elders, why not let me accompany you to practice?”
“Don’t go too far!” Lady Zhou clenched her fists and suppressed her grief and indignation.
“Sister-in-law, the main branch has no one competent, and you know it better than anyone else. Since the main branch cannot shoulder the responsibility, let us, the second branch, take over. It just so happens that my daughter has just gotten engaged to the Ximen family. In the future, when I become the family head, our Nangong family and Ximen family will definitely be able to coexist peacefully and support each other. We will regain the glory of the Nangong family that was depleted by your first branch in the past.” Nangong Lei laughed proudly.
“You clearly know that my father was seriously injured because he was ambushed by the Ximen family’s head, and yet you still want to cooperate with the Ximen family!” Nangong Mufeng’s killing intent surged as he questioned.
“So what? There are no eternal enemies in this world. Your first branch is incompetent, so don’t blame us for overtaking you. Today, whether you give us the family head token or not, we will take it anyway!” As soon as Nangong Lei finished speaking, his aura was as fierce as a bolt of lightning as he charged toward Nangong Mufeng!
Nangong Lei’s strength had reached the early fifth stage, far from what Nangong Mufeng, who was in the early fourth stage, could compare to. He immediately suppressed him.
Not only that, Lady Zhou and Lady Wen could not bear this pressure. Their faces suddenly turned pale, and their bodies swayed helplessly like willow trees in the wind.
“Stop it! Come at me if you have any problems!” Nangong Mufeng shouted with his eyes wide open when he saw his mother and wife vomiting blood.
“Then kneel! Say that you’re willing to give up the position of the family head!” Nangong Lei laughed loudly.
“Nangong Lei!” Lady Zhou’s throat was filled with a bloody sweetness. “You’re bullying the weak. What kind of hero are you?”
“I gave you a chance but you don’t know how to cherish it. You’re truly foolish.” Nangong Lei sneered. He raised his hand and was about to deal with the three people in front of him when he heard a loud bang coming from the courtyard behind him..
