Xiao Chengwang, the head of the Xiao family, died in Daotian City, the headquarters of the Yiqi Dao League.

This news was like a hurricane, instantly sweeping across the entire Yiqidao League.

Almost everyone who knew about the incident was shocked by the news.

No one expected that the two sides, who had been trying to ease the situation, would actually start fighting, and not only that, someone would die.

The life involved was that of Xiao Chengwang, the current head of the Xiao family!

The Yiqidao League held a detailed meeting overnight, first of all to stop the escalating conflict between the two sides, and each side had its own reasons.

In just a few days, various versions of the rumor spread.

The first is genuine information.

It was probably about how Lin Lei protected the demon clan, how Lin Yan broke into the regulatory department and killed Xiao Chengwang and his wife, and then how Xiao Chengwang and his wife colluded with the demon clan and refused to surrender, so Lin Yan had to kill them.

The incident was confusing and none of the Obsidian Inspectors present at the time spoke a word.

The Obsidian Inspectors who had witnessed Lin Yan's strength knew one thing very clearly: in today's Yiqi Dao League, there was almost no one who could control Lin Yan, who was able to ignore the sword formation comparable to that of a great demon king in the late stage.

The few who had the opportunity to fight with Lin Yan had a very good relationship with him and they are good friends.

How to do this?
Moreover, those who really don't care about their lives have already been dealt with by Lin Yan.

A few smart ones knew that they would die miserably if they took action directly, so they made the prudent decision to stab Lin Yan in the back afterwards. However, they could not accomplish anything because most of the Obsidian Inspectors decided to remain silent and not say anything.

And so the matter fermented for several days.

Until the current leader of the Yiqidao League, Zhang Ruoyu, the patriarch of the Black Sword Zhang family, had to start taking charge of the situation.

If this continues, the morale of the Yiqidaomeng will be broken.

Immediately, Lin Yan, Dongfang Guyue, Wang Quan Shouzhuo and the Xiao family were notified to come to Daotian City for a meeting.

. . . . . .

Tao Tiancheng.

Yiqidaomeng headquarters, conference hall.

At this time, the conference hall was filled with representatives from all the major families of the Yiqi Dao League, and all of them were looking seriously at the few people who were divided into two factions at the front.

Three of them are naturally Lin Yan, Dongfang Guyue, and Wang Quan Shouzhuo. On the other side are also three people, namely the Xiao family's eldest elder Xiao Kang, the second elder Xiao Yan, and the eldest elder's son, Xiao Chengxu, who is about to inherit the position of the head of the Xiao family.

At this time, Xiao Chengxu had already completed a series of condemnations and accusations against Lin Yan.

"Master Lin."

"I wonder if you have any new insights into the Xiao family's accusations?"

The leader of the Yiqidao Alliance, Zhang Ruoyu, asked Lin Yan with a blank expression.

Zhang Ruoyu is from the previous generation and is now nearly ninety years old. Zhang Ruoyu, who is about to retire, does not want to cause any trouble. He just wants to quickly end the matter between the Xiao family and the other three families.

In fact, if the matter had not really gotten too serious and begun to affect the foundation of the Yiqi Dao League, Zhang Ruoyu would not have done anything.

Let them fight each other, and the Zhang family can take advantage of the situation and maybe even get some benefits.

For example, the Xiao family is probably already defeated now.

Recently, the Obsidian Inspector has become somewhat alienated from the Xiao family, so the Zhang family has a chance to accept the Obsidian Inspector.

“The Xiao family’s remarks are complete nonsense.”

"As for the so-called evidence, it is just sensationalism."

When Lin Yan heard Zhang Ruoyu's question, he refuted it nonchalantly: "It is well known that all the Taoists of the Yiqi Dao League have suffered from the Xiao family for a long time." "Ever since the Xiao family took control of the Black Obsidian Supervisor, they have been nepotism and lawless, and often accuse Taoists who are not from their faction."

"I don't know how many fellow Taoists have been falsely accused of 'colluding with the demon tribe', and their purpose is just to eliminate dissidents."

"In fact, it was Xiao Chengwang and Ye Zhiqiu from the Xiao family who colluded with the demon clan. Not only did they collude with the demon clan, they also wanted to eliminate dissidents. I had no choice but to kill Xiao Chengwang and Ye Zhiqiu on the spot."

"As for the Obsidian Supervisors on the scene, they were very sensible. After they realized that they were being used by Xiao Chengwang and Ye Zhiqiu and his wife, they drew a clear line in time."

Lin Yan's theory made the scalps of everyone present tingle.

It even made the three members of the Xiao family who were confronting him blush with anger.

"You, you, you farted!"

"It was you who indiscriminately relied on your powerful strength to forcibly kill my brother Chengwang and sister-in-law Zhiqiu!"

"Master, we have a full set of evidence to prove that Lin Lei is indeed protecting the demon race!"

"All the procedures of our clan leader Xiao Chengwang are reasonable and legal."

Xiao Chengxu's face flushed.

The evidence provided by the Xiao family is indeed very substantial and complete.

Lin Yan was almost beaten to death.

However, the Xiao family may have been in the rule-based system of the Yiqidao League for too long, causing them to forget the true nature of this world.

"I don't agree with the evidence given by the Xiao family."

Facing the series of well-organized and logically sound evidence provided by the Xiao family, Lin Yan just smiled and said, "Although I have no way to prove that the Xiao family has colluded with the demon clan, and I have no evidence to prove that Xiao Chengwang and Ye Zhiqiu have colluded with the demon clan, they did collude with the demon clan."

"I don't know, Master Alliance Leader, what do you think?"

Lin Yan looked at Zhang Ruoyu with a smile.

This left Zhang Ruoyu speechless, but he had no choice but to respond.

At this time, several days had passed since Lin Yan killed Xiao Chengwang and his wife. Zhang Ruoyu already had a general understanding of some basic circumstances at that time.

One is the Xiao family at the foot of Sunset Mountain, and the other is Jian Zhong, who is at the late stage of the Great Demon King and is a teenager who killed Xiao Chengwang.

Anyone with a normal IQ would know how to choose.

The Xiao family had no idea that this meeting was just a formality and the outcome for the Xiao family was already determined.

However, as the leader of the Yiqidao League, he cannot eat in an ugly way, he must eat in a proper manner.

“Well, this is indeed difficult to distinguish.”

"Well, since everyone is here today, let's vote."

"Secret ballot. Well, let's get ready and start."

Alliance leader Zhang Ruoyu thought of a way that didn't look too ugly.

As long as everyone eats in an ugly manner, then nothing is ugly.

The next things naturally became simple, and an unconventional voting meeting began.

Although it is a secret ballot, once the ballot is cast it will be taken out and a record will be made on the ballot board, so that you can clearly know which company the previous voter voted for.

Needless to say, the final result was: the Xiao family received zero votes.
