The Fourth Elder and the others’ expressions changed. They suddenly looked at the girl. “You…”
Qiao Nian did not care and put her hands in her pockets, then casually said, “Ji Qings belonging.”
The elders took a deep breath but were unable to calm down.
Ji Lingfeng had never taken out the Patriarch seal. They knew well that the matter back then had blown up too much…
When the old patriarch passed away, the Ji family’s true beloved daughter, Ji Qing, passed away less than two years later. After that, Ji Lingfeng became the
Patriarch as an illegitimate child…
Everyone knew something was fishy.
However, this was a battle between the direct descendants.
They did not dare to interfere.
The elders did not even dare to investigate what happened back then.
Moreover, Ji Qings name gradually became taboo.
However, since Qiao Nian had taken out the Patriarch’s seal and said that it belonged to Ji Qing, it meant that the old patriarch had left the position to his daughter before he passed away…
Qiao Nian looked at everyone. Then, she picked up the seal and threw it to the dumbfounded Ji Nan.
“It’s yours now.”
Ji Nan subconsciously caught it, afraid that it would slip and fall to the ground.
This was not a matter of money.
The seal’s significance surpassed its worth.
As if struck by lightning, the color drained from Ji Hongyuan’s face, and his lips trembled uncontrollably as he looked at the girl in shock and disbelief.
It was as if he was looking at a demon.
“Where did you get the Patriarch’s badge?” Angry and anxious, he was about to lose control of his eagerness.
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows. “According to the Ji family’s rules, we only look at the badge and not the person. Since the badge is in Ji Nan’s hands now, he’s the legitimate next Patriarch. There’s nothing more to say about this!”
That person from the Ji family had set this rule when he was young.
The Second Elder’s face turned ashen as he realized he had chosen the wrong side.
Even though the Fourth Elder and the others were also shocked, they did not choose sides, so even though they were shocked, it was not that hard to accept.
Ji Hongyuan clenched his fists. “But he doesn’t have knowledge related to black gunpowder. This is the trump card that the Ji family relies on to survive in the independent continent! Who will be convinced if they find out that the new Patriarch doesn’t even understand it!”
Ji Hongyuan was flustered and exasperated, but his mind still worked quickly.
He seemed so angry that he did not think before he spoke, but he immediately swayed the elders who had already compromised when they saw the Patriarch’s badge.
The Fourth Elder and the Second Elder looked at each other and saw the worry in each other’s eyes.
Yes, the Ji family became famous in the independent continent because of their knowledge of black gunpowder.
How could a Patriarch who knew nothing about it convince the public?
The Ji family was also surrounded by ferocious tigers. They needed strong backing to maintain their position as the independent continent’s overlord.
Ji Hongyuan heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing them waver. He still had a tough attitude towards the girl. “So Ziyin is the most suitable candidate!”
Qiao Nian had been patient and wanted to settle things calmly with them. Now, the corners of her mouth twitched and her eyes turned cold. It seemed that she had spoken too much!
She stood up.
Xie Yun held her hand and shook her head, then said to the elders, “If Ji Nan isn’t a suitable candidate, Ji Ziyin definitely isn’t suitable either.. Then how about we forget the result of the previous election?”
