Chapter 146 What a good show!
Chapter 146 What a good show!
In the Isayama family's dojo, more than a dozen elders and powerful figures of the Isayama family have all arrived.
More than a dozen people in the field knelt and sat in two rows.
In front of these people are Jianshan You, Jianshan Ming and Jianshan Huangquan.
After learning the news of Isayama Naraku's death late last night, Isayama Yomi cried all night beside his father's body. At this moment, slight redness and swelling can still be seen around his eyes.
The silence lasted for a while. Seeing that the time was almost right, Jianshan You spoke randomly.
"Thank you very much to all the pillars of the Isayama family for taking the time out of their busy schedules to attend this meeting."
After saying that, Jianshan You nodded slightly.
Seeing this, the people kneeling below all put their hands on their knees and bowed.
After everyone finished their greetings, Jian Shanyou continued to speak.
"I think everyone has heard that last night, my brother Isayama Naraku was killed by a curse master. The details of the curse master are still under investigation..."
After saying this, Jianshan You lowered his eyes slightly and pretended to be sad.
"Although my brother has retired due to injuries, he was once a leading sorcerer. The curser who could kill my brother without making any sound must be very powerful. I hope you will do your best to find him."
After saying that, Jianshan You glanced at everyone in the field.
Seeing this, everyone bowed in response.
"All of you present are pillars of the Isayama family. You are usually busy with official duties, and the opportunity to gather together is rare. Therefore, although the timing is not appropriate, please allow me to report my brother's will."
The wish of more than ten years was about to be fulfilled, and a hint of excitement flashed in Jianshan You's eyes, but he quickly suppressed this excitement.
"According to the will of my brother, the previous head of the family, Isayama Naraku, I will now temporarily take over the position of head of the Isayama family."
"Eh?"
"what?"
"really?"
As soon as these words were spoken, several questioning voices were heard in the audience.
These people are all Isayama Naraku's confidants. They became powerful figures in the Isayama family because they were promoted by Isayama Naraku.
When Isayama Naraku was paving the way for his daughter, he would naturally inform them and ask them to support Isayama Yomi.
But at this moment, they heard a completely different candidate from what Isayama Naraku had said before.
Seize power?
Everyone instantly understood Jianshan You's thoughts.
However, before they could say anything, Isayama Yu spoke again.
"quiet!"
Although Isayama Yu's voice is loud, it does not have the majesty of Isayama Naraku.
Not only that, in order to pursue the majestic effect of Isayama Naraku, Isayama Yu deliberately increased the volume, but it seemed a bit angry and embarrassed.
Everyone looked at Jianshan You, most of them showing dissatisfaction in their eyes.
"Although the will states that I will temporarily take over the position of the head of the family, I have many things to do myself, so the actual responsibilities of the head of the family will be fulfilled by my daughter, Isayama Mei. My daughter is still young, so I hope you can help her."
As soon as these words were spoken, the inquiring and dissatisfied looks in the audience instantly decreased a lot.
Jianshan You's reputation was ruined by himself more than ten years ago, so if Jianshan You wants to become the head of the family, there will definitely be many people who will not accept it.
But Jianshan Mei is different.
Whether in terms of bloodline or ability, Jianshan Mei is qualified to inherit the position of head of the family.
Although her talent is not as great as that of Isayama Yomi, Isayama Yomi is, after all, an adopted daughter without the bloodline of the Isayama family.
Therefore, after hearing that the actual head of the family was Jianshan Mei and Jianshan You only had the empty title of head of the family, some elders acquiesced to this result in their hearts.
After all, when Isayama Naraku implicitly proposed to pass the position of head of the family to Isayama Yomi, many elderly people with strong traditional ideas did not agree.
"Wait, Uncle You."
After coming back to his senses from his sadness, Jianshan Huangquan finally found an opportunity to speak.
"What's wrong, Huang Quan."
Jianshan You looked sharply at Jianshan Huangquan, the girl whom he regarded as a thorn in his side.
"Did father really make a will that uncle would be the head of the family?"
Jianshan Huangquan looked at Jianshan You with doubt.
She knew what her father thought of Jianshan You, so she didn't believe that her father would pass the position of head of the family to Jianshan You and Jianshan Mei.
"How could it be, the will..."
"I can prove that the will of the previous head of the family is true."
Before Jianshan Huangquan could finish her words, an elderly elder interrupted her.
"Great Elder?"
Jianshan Huangquan looked at the old elder in disbelief.
"Words are not enough, show me the evidence."
A young man who looked to be in his thirties with a resolute face spoke up.
He is Isayama Naraku's confidant and also Isayama Yomi's supporter.
"My brother left his will when he was dying, but he didn't leave a suicide note..."
Isayama Yu said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Then how do you prove that this will was not made up by you? The symbol of the head of the Isayama family, the precious sword Lion King, is not in the hands of you and Isayama Mei."
The young man's oppressive gaze made cold sweat break out on Jianshan You's forehead.
"It's really useless, but it's good this way. It's easier to control the head of the family like this."
The old elder thought to himself.
"Are you going to question us old people who have devoted decades to the family?"
The Great Elder and several people who had been notified by the Great Elder in advance began to support Jian Shanyou.
Several of Isayama Naraku's confidants were not informed in advance and were not well prepared, so they were suppressed in this confrontation.
"Uncle, the most important thing now is to keep vigil for father. The matter of the head of the family should be followed up..."
"Shut up!"
Seeing that Jianshan Huangquan wanted to delay time, Jianshan You immediately interrupted Huangquan's speech angrily.
The coveted position of family head is only one step away, how could Jianshan You give up?
Moreover, the Great Elder also began to exert his strength as he promised last night, and Jian Shanyou felt that he had nothing to fear.
"Who do you think is responsible for what has happened? Who was the one who held the Isayama family's precious sword, the Lion King, but failed to protect the head of the family? The family is in crisis right now, and the Isayama family cannot live without the head of the family for even a day. Don't you know that?"
Jianshan Huangquan's body trembled slightly.
After all, Isayama Yomi is just a teenage girl who just lost her father.
After discovering that Isayama Yomi had the talent of a sorcerer, Isayama Naraku originally planned to let Isayama Yomi gain enough merits first, and then slowly train him to become the head of the family.
Unfortunately, this scene was something he could never have imagined.
"Huang Quan, when my brother got into trouble, you were out there fooling around with a man, right?"
Jianshan Huangquan opened his mouth and looked at the scrutinizing eyes of the people below the stage. Filled with self-blame, Jianshan Huangquan didn't know how to refute for a moment.
Pop, pop, pop.
A burst of applause came from outside the venue.
"Who is it? I don't know who is it now... Impossible, why is it you!"
Jianshan You, whose self-confidence has gradually reached its peak, looked angrily at those who dared to disrupt the order of the venue.
The next moment he widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Brother, brother, how is it possible?"
"Father!"
Feeling extremely guilty, Isayama Yomi immediately came to Isayama Naraku.
"Is it really you, father?"
Tears streamed down my face.
"I'm sorry to have made you worry, Huang Quan."
Isayama Naraku looked at his crying daughter with heartache.
Then he turned around and looked angrily at Jianshan You and Jianshan Ming, father and daughter.
"What a show, You."
Isayama Naraku's voice was very calm, but it made Isayama You feel like he was falling into an icy cave.
