After lunch, Xu Yan continued to let Xiao He push him to the library.
What happened just now was just a small matter in Xu Yan's eyes. It was not worth paying too much attention to. So what if he waited for Xu Yan's father to return?
By then, his strength would have reached the level of a supreme grandmaster!
What was there to be afraid of when a supreme grandmaster was in a family where the strongest was only a grandmaster?
No longer thinking about this, Xu Yan turned his wheelchair to the place he saw in the morning and continued to look behind.
Without Xu Jianbin causing trouble, the following days passed very peacefully.
Xu Yan was home every day — the library. Time gradually passed like this, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day when Xu Yan's father returned.
At noon, everyone in the Xu Residence came to the gate, waiting for Xu Zhengxuan to return with the elders.
Xu Jianbin looked at Xu Yan, who was still sitting in the wheelchair, and revealed a sinister smile.
Xu Yan saw Xu Jianbin's appearance from the corner of his eyes, but Xu Yan was not worried at all, because he had already reached the level of a supreme grandmaster yesterday!
No matter what kind of mess he was in, as long as he dared to annoy him, he would directly clean it up!
Everyone waited for a while, and a group of figures gradually appeared in the distance.
Seeing this, everyone felt a burst of joy in their hearts. The patriarch and elders had returned safely!
When Xu Zhengxuan and the elders of the family approached, everyone went up to welcome the patriarch's return.
…
In the main hall of the family, the direct descendants of the family were all present. As patriarch Xu Zhengxuan sat down, everyone followed suit.
Patriarch Xu Zhengxuan sat at the top and looked at the people in the main hall. When he saw Xu Yan, he paused for a moment, then continued to look behind.
After some pleasantries, Xu Zhengxuan talked about the harvest of this trip.
In this operation, Xu Zhengxuan led the elders to fight for a few mines for the family, which attracted the praise of the clansmen.
"This time, when the elders and I were away, did anything happen in the family?" Xu Zhengxuan asked about the situation of the family as usual.
At this time, Xu Jianbin, who had been impatient for a long time, walked out.
"Father, Xu Yan beat Steward Liu to death in public for no reason a few days ago!
Father, please investigate this matter thoroughly! "
Hearing Xu Jianbin's words, Clan Head Xu Zhengxuan frowned. "Xu Yan killed Steward Liu in front of everyone?
How was this possible?
Even if he has the best medicine these few days, his broken leg can't be healed in such a short time! "
"I don't know how he did it, but he did stand up, and he even killed Steward Liu!" Xu Jianbin said curiously.
Although he had sent someone to keep an eye on Xu Yan these past few days, Xu Yan had been reading in the library every day. He couldn't find anything special about him.
After hearing Xu Jianbin's words, Xu Zhengxuan looked at Xu Yan who was still in the wheelchair and asked with a frown, "Yan 'er, is what Jianbin said true?
You really killed Steward Liu for no reason, and your leg has already recovered? "
Xu Yan pushed the wheelchair to the center of the hall.
He looked at Xu Zhengxuan and said, "Father, my leg hasn't recovered. I just used a secret technique that allowed me to stand up for a short period of time."
With that, Xu Yan stood up from the wheelchair, walked two steps, and then sat back in the wheelchair.
"I was the one who killed Steward Liu, but I didn't kill Steward Liu without reason."
"Steward Liu punished my servant girl, Xiao He, many times for no reason. I couldn't stand it, so I went to find him. In the end, he refused to admit it, so I killed him directly!"
After hearing Xu Yan's words, Xu Zhengxuan frowned.
Xu Yan had gone overboard in this matter. He actually killed a clan steward without permission.
Hearing Xu Yan's words, Xu Jianbin retorted, "What do you mean by punishing your servant girl for no reason?
Your servant girl broke a valuable vase in the warehouse, and Steward Liu couldn't even whip her a few times? "
"You don't know whether it was Xiao He who broke it or not?
You're playing dumb! "
Hearing Xu Yan's words, Xu Jianbin was a little agitated, "What do you mean I'm playing dumb?
What does this have to do with me? "
"If it doesn't have anything to do with you, why are you in such a hurry to complain?" Xu Yan said indifferently.
"I …" Xu Jianbin was choked by this sentence and his face turned red.
"Enough!"
Xu Zhengxuan interrupted the two's argument, "I have a rough understanding of this matter. No matter what, Xu Yan killed Steward Liu. According to the clan's rules, Xu Yan should be beaten 30 times. However, because Xu Yan's legs are still broken and he is injured, he will reflect on his mistakes for a month. He will be fined half a year's salary as compensation to Steward Liu's family!"
"Patriarch, I don't think this matter is appropriate!"
Before Xu Jianbin could speak, the Third Elder, who was sitting next to him, stood up.
"Oh?
What's wrong? "Xu Zhengxuan asked with a frown.
"Patriarch, have you forgotten?
Xu Yan offended Chu Yukun, who is ranked 33rd on the Earth Roll, because of his arrogance a few days ago. Our Xu Family had to pay a large sum of money to appease Chu Yukun!
In the end, he did not know how to restrain himself and actually killed Steward Liu in front of everyone. It's obvious that he has forgotten the pain after the scar has healed! "
"I suggest that Xu Yan's punishment be according to the clan's rules. He will be beaten 30 times to teach him a lesson and to restrain himself. Otherwise, he will bring trouble to the Xu Family in the future!" The Third Elder looked at Xu Yan with a look of disgust.
"But Xu Yan's injuries …" Xu Zhengxuan frowned.
"I also support the Third Elder. Let's punish him according to the clan's rules!"
The Second Elder also stood up to support the Third Elder, "As for his injuries, since he was able to kill Steward Liu, I think he should have recovered by now!"
Seeing the Second Elder and the Third Elder stand up, Xu Zhengxuan helplessly looked at the First Elder.
"What's the First Elder's opinion?" Xu Zhengxuan asked.
The First Elder closed his eyes and did not utter a word. He chose to remain neutral and did not express his opinion.
Seeing this, Xu Zhengxuan could only helplessly say, "Since the two elders insist on punishing him according to the clan's rules, then let's do it according to the clan's rules!"
After saying that, Xu Zhengxuan sighed in his heart. Yan 'er, I can't protect you this time.
Seeing that Xu Yan was still going to be punished according to the clan's rules, Xu Jianbin was secretly pleased!
Xu Yan, prepare to lie in bed for a few more days!
"So only the two of you elders support punishing him according to the clan's rules?" Xu Yan suddenly said from below the stage.
Seeing this, the Second Elder and the Third Elder frowned.
"Why, do you have anything else to say?" The Third Elder asked.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Xu Yan. They wanted to see what Xu Yan would say.
"Since it's only the two of you, then I won't hold back!"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. Won't hold back?
What did that mean?
After Xu Yan finished speaking, he stood up and appeared in front of the Second and Third Elders in the blink of an eye.
Before anyone could react, he slapped the two of them in the chest!
