"That's right, Family Head, I suggest we follow the advice of Young Master Li and expel Sikong Xuan from the Li Family! Then, you should step down and pass on the leadership, as the position of Family Head doesn't seem to suit you!" Sikong Jun also remarked with a sneer.

"Exactly! Family Head, you holding onto this position has brought our Sikong family to such disgrace, isn't it shameful? It's time to step down and let someone capable and virtuous lead as Family Head!" Sikong Ling added with cold indifference.

The three juniors openly criticized Sikong Yuntian in front of everyone.

Yet.

Sikong Yuntian's old face was ashen, unable to utter a single rebutting word!

He could only let the three juniors criticize him at will!

"Enough! Sikong Jun, Sikong Mei, Sikong Ling, are you not part of the Sikong family anymore? How dare you speak to the Family Head like this!!!" Sikong Yibo's face was incredibly unsightly as he abruptly stood up, reprimanding them.

"Heh! Fifth Brother, I think they're right. Because of the Family Head's daughter, our Sikong family is being targeted like this by the Li Family, and they've spoken out! Unless we expel Sikong Xuan from our family and replace the Family Head, submitting to the Li Family, otherwise, our Sikong family will be gradually dismantled! Do you really want to see our Sikong family's legacy of tens of thousands of years destroyed overnight?" Sikong Ruhai said with a gentle smile.

"You!"

Sikong Yibo turned back, glaring angrily at Sikong Ruhai, shouting, "Sikong Ruhai, don't think I don't know you are secretly colluding with the Li Family just for the Family Head position!"

"What? Is it wrong for me to want to be Family Head? If I were Family Head, I could save the Sikong family from danger. Ask everyone if they're willing to let me be Family Head?" Sikong Ruhai retorted.

His tone was filled with disdain and indifference.

Under normal circumstances, where would Sikong Ruhai dare speak like this?

But.

Now, the Sikong family had long been estranged from Sikong Yuntian; everyone wished to pull Sikong Yuntian down from the position of Family Head!

Sikong Yuntian's status as Family Head had long been in name only!

So.

Sikong Ruhai dared to act presumptuously!

Moreover!

Even if Sikong Ruhai was presumptuous, so what? Who could stop him?

Now, more than 90% of the Sikong family supported him in taking the position of Family Head.

In Sikong Ruhai's mind, he had long seen himself as the Family Head of the Sikong family!

As for Sikong Yuntian?

Heh!

Just a puppet, not worth considering!

"Yes! We support Sikong Ruhai as Family Head!"

"That's right! Sikong Ruhai as Family Head is better than that useless Sikong Yuntian!"

"Sikong Yuntian, hasn't your daughter caused enough ruin to our Sikong family? Now the Li Family is targeting us everywhere, how can you shamelessly remain as Family Head?"

"Get down!"

"Yes! Get down, get down!"

"Get down…"

All throughout the hall, thousands of people stood up in fury, glaring at Sikong Yuntian, shouting with extreme malice.

And just at that moment.

A servant of the Sikong family hurriedly came in, reporting: "Family Head…"

"What is it, speak!" Sikong Ruhai shouted.

Clearly, he had already regarded himself as the Family Head!

Sikong Yuntian stood aside, his face as black as coal, as unsightly as could be!

"Ah?"

The servant was momentarily stunned.

"The Family Head asked you to speak, can't you understand human language?" Sikong Mei coldly glanced at the servant.

"Yes!"

The servant dared not delay, quickly saying: "Outside… Sikong Xuan has returned, and she brought back a young man, they're right outside the hall…"

"Sikong Xuan?"

Everyone in the hall was taken aback.

The next second.

"Damn! That shameful wench dares to return!"

"Yes, such a wench, dying outside would be unnoticed, yet she dares to return!"

"Damn it! Get her out!"

"That's right, let her get out…"

Everyone roared in fury, filled with intense hatred for Sikong Xuan.

If it wasn't for Sikong Xuan, how could the Sikong family end up in such a predicament? How could they face the targeting by the Li Family!

Therefore.

Sikong Xuan was the chief culprit, the woman most deserving of death!

"Wait!"

Sikong Ruhai stepped forward, lightly pressing down with his hand, and the originally agitated crowd in the hall suddenly quieted down, all staring blankly at Sikong Ruhai.

Seeing the crowd cooperating so well with him, Sikong Ruhai felt greatly contented. He glanced around, calmly saying: "Since Sikong Xuan has returned, then we should meet her, let her in!"

"Yes…"

The servant dared not delay.

Soon.

Lin Fan and Sikong Xuan were brought into the hall.

As soon as they entered the hall, thousands of eyes instantly focused on Sikong Xuan.

Venomous!

Spiteful!

Fierce!

Indifferent!

Hostile!

...

Countless gazes scared Sikong Xuan into a slight tremble, subconsciously shrinking back.

Lin Fan stepped forward, wrapped his arm around Sikong Xuan, and smiled: "Don't be afraid."

"Mm."

Sikong Xuan nodded slightly; as long as Lin Fan was present, she was not afraid.

"A pair of shameless wretches! Damn! Truly worthy of being a wench! We suffered humiliation in the family, yet this wench dares to bring a man back!" Sikong Mei's eyes were filled with venom.

"Pa!"

However, just as Sikong Mei finished her sentence, she felt a sharp pain in her cheek!

Then.

A shocking scene unfolded!

Sikong Mei was sent flying, and no one even saw who had struck!

After Sikong Mei was sent flying, she landed heavily on the ground, a vivid red handprint on her face.

"Watch your words, this is the first time. Next time, I will kill." Lin Fan stood there, one arm around Sikong Xuan, speaking faintly.

"You!"

Sikong Mei was completely stunned, her eyes glaring wide, practically spitting fire. She glared at Lin Fan like a mad dog, shrieking: "Damn! Who do you think you are, how dare you act in the Sikong family? You think we have no one here? Damn! How dare you hit me, you must want to die! Dad, kill him! Kill him now!"

Sikong Mei's cultivation was only Sixth Rank Venerable Sage, no match for Lin Fan.

But her father, Sikong Ruhai, was a Third Rank Holy Emperor!

"Hmph! Brat, you've got guts! How dare you cause trouble in my Sikong family, die!" Sikong Ruhai snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with a cruel glint.

The next second.

He decisively struck!

A huge aura of a Holy Emperor pressed down on Lin Fan with great force.

Yet.

Such a level of power, to Lin Fan, was nothing more than ants!

"Pa!"

Lin Fan merely lifted his hand and swung a slap, and Sikong Ruhai, as if a dead dog, was swatted flat to the ground!

The entire Sikong family hall fell into deathly silence, all eyes fixated on Lin Fan, unable to believe it, eyes bulging!

"Anyone else want to kill me?" Lin Fan calmly scanned his surroundings, still smiling as he asked.

The hall remained deathly silent!

No one dared to speak up.

Just then.

A voice came from outside the hall: "Young Master Li is here!"

"What?"

"Young Master Li is here!"

"Great, Young Master Li is here!"

The Sikong family members were overjoyed.

"Brat, let's see how arrogant you can be! When Young Master Li arrives, and since you're Sikong Xuan's man, let's see if you die!" Sikong Mei held her cheek with one hand, eyes filled with venomous hatred as she glared at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan's lips curled into a faint smile.

Young Master Li? Li Dunyi?

Interesting!

"Xuan'er, quickly leave through the back door!" Sikong Yuntian hurriedly urged upon seeing the situation, for the first time speaking in a low voice.

"Father, don't worry, as long as he's here, we have nothing to fear," Sikong Xuan reassured with a smile.

A few breaths later.

"Ta ta ta ta!"

Sure enough.

Li Dunyi led a group of people into the hall from outside the Sikong family's premises.

As soon as they entered the hall of the Sikong family, a crowd surged forward, naturally including people like Sikong Ruhai, Sikong Jun, Sikong Mei, Sikong Ling, acting like lapdogs as they went to welcome him.
