Bring a scumbag girl to bully me, and you are afraid of using modern weapons.

“Mother!” Zhong Liyao rushed over, hugged Nangong Zi, and cried loudly, “Why did this happen…”

“Puff~~” Zhong Lixiao drew out his sword and threw it to the ground, then knelt down facing the door. “Mother, your son has finally avenged you!”

The old lady was stunned. She didn't expect him to actually kill someone. It took her a while to react. "Zhongli Xiao, how dare you?"

"She deserves it." Nangong Xi threw a dagger in front of her, "She is in this state because of you. If you still want to save face, just end it yourself!"

"You want me to die?" The old lady opened her eyes wide, "Nangong Xi, Zi'er is your child too. Don't you have any responsibility for what happened?"

"What's my responsibility? Every time she does something wrong and needs to be punished, you always protect her and indulge her. I don't believe you don't know what she did to Jia'er?

Are you satisfied with what has happened now?" Nangong Xi looked at her with disgust, "Dong Cui, I'll give you two choices: either die or get out with the divorce."

If this vicious woman is not dealt with, there will be no peace in the Nangong family, and he will not be able to continue his retreat and cultivation with peace of mind.

At this moment, a few old men walked in from outside the gate.

Xie Jinglan and Beitang Yuan both recognized these people; they were the elders of the Zhongli family.

The two looked at each other. What were these old men doing here?

"Hello, Mr. Nangong!" The old men bowed to Nangong Xi.

"What are you doing here?" Nangong Xi now had no good feelings towards the people of Zhongli family.

An old man looked at Nangong Zi's body with a gloomy look in his eyes. "We were just outside and knew the whole process of the incident. It turns out that we were all deceived by Nangong Zi!"

"Then take her away quickly, it's bad luck!" Nangong Xi waved his hand with a cold face.

"No!" The elder shook his head. "Nangong Zi poisoned the ex-wife and framed Zhongli Xiao. Her crimes are heinous. She is no longer worthy of being a member of the Zhongli family."

Zhongli Yao stopped crying immediately. "Three elders, what do you mean by this? My mother is the biological mother of our patriarch. How can she not be a member of the Zhongli family?"

"Zhongli Yao, according to the decision of our clan elders' council, Nangong Zi is no longer recognized as the wife of the Zhongli family. Only Nangong Jia is the principal wife of the old patriarch!

When we return, we will remove Nangong Zi's name from the Zhongli family tree." The third elder said coldly.

"Impossible!" Zhong Liyao shouted, "As long as this Patriarch is alive, you won't even think of doing this. Don't you take me, the Patriarch, seriously?"

"This is not up to you!" An elder leaning on a cane shouted, "If it weren't for Nangong Zi poisoning the ex-wife to death, causing Zhongli Xiao to suffer decades of injustice, the position of family head would never have been yours.

Zhongli Yao, don't think we don't know what the old patriarch said to you before he died? You and your son are selfish and have brought the entire Zhongli family into this situation.

"Great elder, what do you mean by this?" Zhongli Yao pretended not to understand what he meant.

The elder ignored him and looked at Zhongli Xiao, "Zhongli Xiao, we have all been deceived by Nangong Zi and have misunderstood you. We came here specifically to take you back to the Zhongli family."

Zhongli Xiao stood up and said coldly, "I am no longer a member of the Zhongli family. You have found the wrong person."

"Zhongli Xiao, I know you have resentment in your heart, but we were also deceived by this woman Nangong Zi! We apologize to you now and ask you to go back and take the position of the head of the family." The elders of the three clans.

"If you tell me to go back, I have to go back." Zhong Lixiao's face was filled with anger. "I no longer have any relationship with the Zhongli family. How many times do you want me to tell you this?"

"Zhongli Xiao, we have already apologized to you and come to ask you to go back in person. What else do you want? Don't forget that you have the blood of the Zhongli family flowing in your veins. Your mother's spirit tablet is still enshrined in the Zhongli family's ancestral hall. You can't just cut off the connection if you want to." The elder of the clan pointed at him with his crutch.

"You're threatening me with my mother's spirit tablet?" Zhong Lixiao's eyes flushed red. "You people are truly despicable and shameless to the extreme."

"Hit him!" Nangong Xi walked over and kicked the elder in the chest.

The clan elder activated his spiritual power and was able to withstand the kick.

Although Nangong Xi only used 10% of his strength, his strength in the middle stage of Mahayana was enough to deal with the old man, and a mouthful of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.

"You old beasts, you actually used my daughter's spirit tablet to threaten my grandson? Have you had enough of living?" Nangong Xi said hatefully.

"Master Nangong, calm down!"

These elders just remembered that Nangong Xi had a bad temper, and their necks shrank like quails.

"After all, Zhongli Xiao is the eldest son of the old patriarch and the bloodline of the Zhongli family. We cannot abandon the family and ignore him!" said the third elder.

"Bullshit! What were you doing before? When you kicked him out of the Zhongli family, why didn't you think that he was the son of that bastard Zhongli Rui?" Nangong Xi didn't give the old man any face at all.

"Xiao'er, if you don't want to go back, then don't go back. Who dares to threaten you again? Grandfather will kill them!"

"Grandfather, your grandson has a request." Zhongli Xiao knelt down in front of Nangong Xi.

"Just say it, even if the sky falls, your grandpa will hold it up for you." Nangong Xi felt so distressed when he looked at his grandson.

When he was in seclusion, the child was still young and had no one to support him, so he had to endure so much suffering.

"I want to move my mother's spirit tablet out of the Zhongli family. I hope my grandfather will agree!" Zhongli Xiao said.

Hearing this, everyone was shocked again.

Xie Jinglan and Beitang Yuan did not expect that their master would make such a decision.

If he moved his mother's spirit tablet away, it would mean a complete break with the Zhongli family, and he would become a lonely individual and would no longer be able to enjoy the incense and offerings from the Zhongli family's descendants.

"no!"

The elders of the Zhongli family spoke in unison and became anxious.

"Zhongli Xiao, you are the son of destiny for the Zhongli family. If you leave, the Zhongli family will be finished!"

"Son of destiny? Haha!" Nangong Xi sneered, "I was wondering why you old fools kept holding on to him. So this is the reason? Damn it, I thought you cared so much about him."

"Xiao'er, bring back your mother's spirit tablet! And move her remains out of the Zhongli family's ancestral graveyard. Grandfather will go with you today."

Nangong Zhuo was shocked, "Grandfather, this isn't right!"

If we really do this, my aunt will become a wandering ghost!

"There's nothing wrong with it. That bastard Zhongli Rui has been flirting with other women, betraying my Jiaer, and abandoning his son Xiaoer. He is not worthy of my good daughter at all!" Nangong Xi made the decision.

"Thank you, Grandfather, for your help." Zhong Lixiao then stood up.

If he brought out his mother's spirit tablet, he wouldn't be afraid of being threatened by these people.
