Chapter 197: Family Members’ Obstruction

Many elders of the Meng family watched the fierce quarrel between the two brothers at the meeting. No one knew what to say for a while. Only occasionally someone said a few words to help those they supported, but most of the elders still I prefer Meng Guangzhi. After all, there are many people who don't really want to stay in Fengdu City. They also want to make a career outside.

Zhang Yan, Meng Yao and others were walking quickly towards the Meng family. Zhang Yan said strangely on the way: "What's going on with your Meng family? Why does the Council of Elders have such great power? Can it impeach the head of the family?"

"Several of our major families are like this. The head of the family is hereditary, but once there are many people in the main family, then it is necessary to choose a family head from these heirs. However, the matter of choosing the family head has to go up. The first head of the family proposed it, and many elders came to second the proposal, but basically the head of the family chooses whoever will be the leader, and these elders are also the elders of our Meng family. Everyone is a relative of the Meng family, so they are in the Meng family. They have great power. Once something major happens, all decisions will be made unanimously by the Presbyterian Council, because these elders represent their respective branches. Although the head of the family has great power, the Presbyterian Council is indeed the largest. A place with full strength," Meng Yao explained from the side.

Zhang Yan smiled and said: "No wonder this situation happened. The power of your Presbyterian Council is too great. Once someone bribes or wins over most of the elders like your uncle, wouldn't your Meng family become like this? Are you in dire straits now?”

"This is also the ancestor's rule of pricing. We must also act according to the ancestor's instructions. There is nothing to change in this matter. This is also to prevent the head of the family from acting arbitrarily. There are advantages and disadvantages."

Hearing this, Zhang Yan felt that it was right. Everything has two sides, but Zhang Yan couldn't care about this kind of thing. Zhang Yan just followed Meng Yao to the door of Meng's house. When everyone came to the door of Meng's house, I found that the Meng family was heavily guarded at this time. There were usually only two people guarding the front door, but today there were ten people standing there, divided into two groups, with five people standing in front of the door on each side.

When everyone saw Meng Yao, they were all shocked. Some of them looked as if they had seen a ghost and were in disbelief. Moreover, the leading guard did not let Meng Yao and the others go in directly, but stretched out his hand to stop Meng Yao. The others said coldly: "I'm sorry, our Meng family is under martial law now, and no one is allowed to enter our Meng family without permission."

"Don't you have eyes? Or are you blind? You dare to stop me? You are so brave!" Meng Yao became furious when he saw this, and scolded loudly and angrily.

The leading guard, however, remained unmoved. He lost all of his usual respect for Mengyao and instead asked, "Who are you? How dare you make such a loud noise here?"

When Yan Luo heard this, he immediately shouted loudly: "I've turned against you, and you don't even recognize your young lady? Are you looking for death?"

"Miss? Our young lady has died on Huangquan Road a long time ago. Who are you? How dare you pretend to be our young lady? Take it down for me," the leading guard suddenly shouted, and then asked the people behind him to step forward and arrest everyone. catch.

However, when Zhang Yan saw this, he snorted coldly and said: "It seems that you are all bribed by others, but with just a few of you innate warriors, do you dare to act recklessly here? I think you don't want to live anymore. ," Zhang Yan said and walked directly in front of the leading guard, punching him directly in the face. Zhang Yan didn't use much strength, but Zhang Yan's punch was still not something he could handle. If he could survive, he saw that the guard was punched directly in the face by Zhang Yan. He was immediately blasted more than ten feet away, hit the door on the side, and fell heavily to the ground.

The beaten guard vomited two mouthfuls of blood, and then he wanted to stand up but couldn't. His whole breath was sluggish. When the people around him saw this, they didn't dare to take action. They just stood in front to prevent Zhang Yan. They went over and showed off their weapons one after another, but their legs were shaking as they stood, which also revealed the fear in everyone's hearts.

Meng Yao said softly: "I know that you are also following orders. I won't embarrass you. You just get out of the way."

Zhang Yan also took a look at the crowd. They were so frightened that they immediately stood on both sides and moved out of the way. Yan Luo snorted and said, "You guys really deserve to be beaten. You should polish your skills when choosing a team." Eyes, you made the wrong choice this time.”

Meng Yao walked in front and strode towards the Meng family's courtyard. However, as soon as he entered the Meng family's courtyard, six middle-aged people with martial arts cultivation suddenly came to Mengyao and stopped Meng Yao. "Meng Yao Miss, you came back alive from the underworld? This is really great. If you are waiting here, I will report this matter to the head of the family," the middle-aged man in charge said with a look of surprise.

Hearing this, Meng Yao sneered and said, "I won't bother you with this matter. I'll go find my father myself. I still have many things to tell him." Meng Yao glanced at the last one among the six people as he spoke. Young man, this person was one of the people who followed Meng Yao into Huangquan Road. He was also the person who wanted to kill Meng Yao originally, but Meng Yao was rescued by Zhang Yan and they failed.

Meng Yao looked at this middle-aged man coldly, and he was suddenly shocked. Cold sweat broke out all over his body, but before he could make any move, the leading middle-aged man turned around and glared at him, loudly Asked: "What's going on? Didn't you say that everyone who entered the Huangquan Road from the Meng family died on the Huangquan Road except you? Didn't you say that you were ambushed? What's going on here? ?”

"This, this," the man hesitated after hearing the words and didn't know what to say for a moment. At this moment, the man's eyes suddenly showed a fierce look, and the eyes looking at Mengyao were also full of murderous intent. Zhang Yan The murderous aura was immediately felt on the side, and without saying a word, this man suddenly raised his sword and stabbed Meng Yao directly. His cultivation was also the strength of Wu Zong. With his sudden attack, Meng Yao and others could not stand it at all. He couldn't react, and even if he reacted, he couldn't resist the attack of a strong martial artist.

But Zhang Yan had been prepared for a long time. Although Zhang Yan couldn't take the sword forcefully, Zhang Yan still had the strength to block it. The stone sword suddenly appeared in Zhang Yan's hand, and then he shot directly from the side. The sword pierced the middle-aged man's sword body. Zhang Yan's stone sword was extremely sharp. When the sword struck, it instantly cut the sword in the middle-aged man's hand into two halves. Once the sword body was broken, the power of the sword was greatly reduced. , was directly deflected by Zhang Yan's sword. This fatal sword was not enough, but this man was not willing to give in. He roared as if he was mad and hit Meng Yao with a palm.

At this time, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the panicked Mengyao, and he greeted it with a palm, knocking the middle-aged man away. After the middle-aged man flew out, he became almost alive. The person who suddenly appeared was the Soul-Eating Beast who had been standing behind silently. The Soul-Eating Beast said coldly: "You are really overestimating your capabilities."

The other five people in the Meng family were all shocked by what happened before. None of them could react. After all, what just happened was too fast. In a flash of lightning, this person changed from assassinating Meng Yao to... He was seriously injured and fell to the ground. It was only at this time that everyone reacted. One of them yelled: "You dare to assassinate my young lady. You are seeking death."

As he spoke, he quickly dodged in front of the fallen man and stabbed his chest with a sword. When Zhang Yan saw this, he had a sneer on his lips and dodged directly in front of him, blocking him with a sword. With this sword, this person saw that his fatal sword was blocked, and he was still an unknown outsider. He couldn't help shouting: "Who are you? How dare you interfere with our Meng family's affairs?"

Zhang Yan snorted coldly and said: "What? If the matter is exposed, do you want to kill someone and silence him? It is useful to keep this person alive."

"Fart, he intended to assassinate the young lady. Of course he wanted to kill her on the spot. What happened was exposed? If you don't get out of the way quickly and let me kill this scum, is it possible that you are with him?" He said this The man suddenly used all his strength, and stabbed the man who fell on the ground with his full strength. Before, he had not used all his strength, so Zhang Yan could barely stop his sword. Now that he used all his strength, Zhang Yan could not stop it. , and the soul-eating beast had no intention of taking action. It watched this man stab the injured person on the ground to death with a sword.

Zhang Yan laughed loudly and said: "We are all back. It doesn't matter whether you kill him or not. Don't we know that you are with him if you kill him? It's really ridiculous."

Hearing this, the man immediately said angrily: "Who are you, kid? How dare you interfere in our Meng family's affairs? How dare you slander people here? I think you are here to cause trouble."

As he spoke, he was about to fight Zhang Yan, but the soul-eating beast suddenly appeared beside Zhang Yan, looked at him coldly and said, "You are looking for death!" He was about to kill him as he spoke.

Zhang Yan waved his hand and said: "You should be more restrained. This is the Meng family after all. Everything should be decided by Meng Yao. Don't forget that we have very important things to do here. We don't have time to waste here." ”

Meng Yao heard this and said coldly: "I'm going to see my father, you all get out of the way."

"Miss, the head of the family is holding a family meeting with the elders. No one else is allowed in. I think you should wait until the meeting is over to talk about anything you have to do," the middle-aged man in charge said.
