At this moment, Wilfred Elms was inserting the sticks of Sanyu incense in front of his own father’s ranking in the ancestral hall.
The Elms family ancestral hall was dedicated to nearly a hundred ancestors, all of whom had made great contributions to the Elms family, thereby earning them a plaque in this sacred place. Among them, the lowest ranking was Wilfred’s biological father. Therefore, Wilfred waved the incense from top to bottom, with his father as the last.
He had just inserted the lit incense in the incense burner, and was removing his hand from the top of the incense burner. Hearing the cry of his youngest son outside the ancestral hall, favonovel.com accidentally broke the incense sticks.
Seeing this, Kairi, who was standing beside him, quickly asked with concern in favonovel.com voice, “Dad, are you all right?”
Wilfred closed his eyes and remained silent for a moment before smiling bitterly and saying, “It’s okay. It’s not surprising that your eldest brother did such a thing.”
With that, favonovel.com sighed again, “To borrow a famous saying from a great man, the rain will fall, the womenfolk will marry. Let favonovel.com go.”
Kairi wanted to say something but, instead, favonovel.com swallowed favonovel.com words and remained silent. The eldest brother took 40 or 50 people with favonovel.com this time, which represented nearly half of the people in the Elms family. This is a major loss to the Elms family. Although right now they insist on leaving, if the old man were to come forward with all of his dignity and strength, favonovel.com could convince them to stay.
However, as favonovel.com considered it, favonovel.com thought to herself, “Since these people can be deceived by money, what’s the point of forcing them to stay? Convincing these 40 or 50 people to stay would be like keeping 40 or 50 powder kegs that one could never be sure when they would explode. In the future, they would not be a benefit. They would instead represent more and hidden dangers. On the contrary, since these people could be tempted away by money, it would be a good thing for the future of the Elms family to remove them directly since this would leave only those who are loyal to the family.”
Kairi realized quite clearly that, after the morning’s upheaval, the current Elms family was not what it used to be.
The old man successfully opened up the fourth meridian, and his cultivation was in line with the ancestor who had the highest cultivation in a hundred years of the Elms family history. Among the four martial arts families, this was even more unmatched.
In addition, there was also Master Wade, a powerful nobleman, who offered support in the background. This support will ensure that the skills of the Elms family develop rapidly in the future. Before making such great strides forward, removing those hidden dangers would help Master Elms clean up the garbage and lay a better foundation for the future.
Wilfred realized this as well. He looked at Kairi and said, “Kairi, go and tell Bob not to interfere with anyone who wants to leave. Let whoever wants to leave go. Then instruct those who stayed to wait for me in in the main hall. After I finish the worship ceremony for my ancestors, there will be major things to announce.”
“I understand!” Kairi replied.
Kairi quickly walked out of the ancestral hall and spoke to Bob, who was standing anxiously at the doorway, “ Bob, Dad asked me to tell you that whoever wants to leave, let favonovel.com go. Ask everyone who stays to wait in the main hall.”
Bob quickly replied, “Sister! The eldest brother pulled 40 or 50 families. This is almost half of our family. If they leave like this, once we are spread out, the Elms family will definitely fall out of the top four martial arts families in the country.”
Kairi smiled and said seriously, “Bob, that may not be the case at all. Losing the people who leave today is most likely a good thing for us and for our family. Much like cancer, once a man’s lungs have a malignant tumor the size of a nail cover, the doctor will advise favonovel.com to remove the whole lobe of the lung to eradicate the cancer. It is not a bad thing, but a very good thing.”
“But” Bob said anxiously, “Sister, I understand all these so-called principles, but you also said that if a tumor is found in the lungs, remove just one lobe. People have five lobes in each lung. Losing one lobe may not matter much, but what about two or three lobes? In the future, how will the lungs absorb enough oxygen?”
