Chapter 912: Chapter 443 Yan Family’s Plan_2
Chapter 912 -443 Yan Family’s Plan_2
The Lu Family within Qingshi City, one of the top ten elite families, would hardly need to worry if their overall strength were truly formidable, if they really could easily suppress the other families ranked below the top ten elite.
But the biggest problem is, the Lu Family can’t do that.
The Lu Family can’t do it; they can’t suppress those families ranked below the top ten elite.
That’s why the Lu Family has its current predicament.
“It really proves the old saying, ‘Innocence is not a crime, but possessing a jade makes one guilty.'”
The white-haired elder, sitting quietly on an armchair, shook his head silently after hearing the words of the youngster beside him, then he voiced his thoughts.
Although such a situation is extremely perilous for the so-called Lu Family,
for the Yan Family within the Inner City of Qingshi City, it’s an extremely advantageous state of affairs.
Over this period of growth and expansion, the Yan Family has now secured a place among the hundred members of the Brain Trust.
The reason there is only such a pitiful one seat,
is mainly because the turnover rate of the Brain Trust members is just too slow.
Generally, once someone becomes one of those rare hundred Brain Trust members,
they wouldn’t so easily give up their hard-won position.
Even if a person wants to give up their position,
the families supporting the Brain Trust members’ rise to power won’t agree to it.
After such painstaking efforts to finally push you into a seat on the Brain Trust, before you’ve done anything significant or repaid your family’s efforts, you want to give up your seat… Aren’t you asking to die?
Furthermore, Brain Trust members can target each other but cannot deliver killing blows.
In other words, Brain Trust members cannot kill each other.
This also led to the reason why the Yan Family, belonging to the top three elite families in the Inner City of Qingshi City, after allying with the Qingshi City Luo Family for so long, has only barely secured a Brain Trust member seat.
However, after this event,
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
the Yan Family, as one of the top three of the elite families within the Inner City of Qingshi City, seems to have spotted an opportunity to gain a second Brain Trust member seat.
It was mentioned before,
that the interval between turnovers of Brain Trust members is incredibly long.
Generally, once ascended,
nobody gives up their Brain Trust seat willingly.
Therefore, even if the Yan Family, as one of the top elite families within the Inner City of Qingshi City, wants to expand their family’s influence, enhance their overall strength, and increase the number of seats they hold within the Brain Trust,
they are ultimately powerless to do so.
But this time,
if they manage to take down that single Brain Trust member seat held by the Lu Family, one of the top ten elite families within the Inner City of Qingshi City,
the Yan Family is confident they can occupy another Brain Trust member seat.
“Indeed…”
Standing beside the old patriarch of the Yan Family, Yan Yin, the Young Family Head of the Yan Family, couldn’t help but say in a low voice after hearing the old patriarch’s words, “Innocence is not a crime, but possessing a jade makes one guilty, however…”
“For our Yan Family, this is an excellent opportunity.”
“If handled well, our Yan Family could even occupy another Brain Trust member seat.”
“In doing so, our Yan Family’s influence among the members of the Brain Trust would significantly increase, and our authority within the Qingshi City Luo Family would also greatly improve.”
The elder nodded in satisfaction, then said, “Good, since you, youngster, think so too, take charge of this matter…”
Yan Yin slightly lowered his head and responded, “Rest assured, great ancestor, I will handle this matter cleanly and beautifully.”
After saying this, Yan Yin, the Young Family Head of the Yan Family, silently turned and vanished into the solitude of the quiet courtyard.
In fact, if the other families within Qingshi City did not take action…
“If the member of the Brain Trust in the hands of the Lu Family, one of the top ten leading family powers in Qingshi City, hadn’t been targeted, hadn’t been attacked by a group,”
“the Yan Family here would naturally not dare to take any unnecessary actions.”
“After all, no matter what,”
“the identity and status of the Yan Family are conspicuously placed right here.”
“The Yan Family also counts as the only family force in Qingshi City, aside from the Qingshi City Luo Family, to have a Rebirth Realm Cultivator in residence.”
“Even if they don’t act against the Lu Family,”
“the identity and status of the Yan Family are beyond doubt, needing no description by others.”
“However, the current situation is somewhat different.”
“Since the Lu Family has now become a target for many family powers within Qingshi City,”
“and this matter has already been instigated by other members of the Brain Trust,”
“as such, the Yan Family, being among the top three of the top ten leading family powers within the Inner City, would naturally not easily let go of such a good opportunity.”
“If they don’t act, that’s one thing.”
“But if they do decide to act,”
“then they must strive to do their best.”
“And if the Lu Family falls, and their member of the Brain Trust is consequently expelled from the group, stripped of their seat,”
“that vacant seat must then inevitably be firmly controlled by the Yan Family.”
“During this time, the only thing the Yan Family needs to pay attention to,”
“is that one and only millennium-old family which, after defeat, decided to surrender to the side of the Qingshi City Luo Family.”
“Apart from that defeated and surrendering millennium-old family,”
“most other family forces would not be given a second glance by the Yan Family.”
“And this is the tremendous confidence that the power of the Rebirth Realm family brings to Yan Yin, the Young Family Head of the Yan Family.”
“…”
“Stepping out of his family patriarch’s quiet courtyard,”
“and arriving at the front gate of the Yan Clan’s ancestral land,”
“Yan Yin, the Young Family Head of the Yan Family, couldn’t help but narrowly squint his eyes, seemingly gazing toward the very distant gates of Qingshi City.”
“However, obviously…”
“due to the exceedingly great distance,”
“no matter how hard Yan Yin, the Young Family Head of the Yan Family, tried,”
“he ultimately couldn’t make out the current situation at those gates outside Qingshi City.”
“Left with no choice, Yan Yin then had no choice but to call over a servant of the Yan Family to softly inquire about some of the matters he wanted to know.”
“Young Family Head,”
“a servant of the Yan Family dressed in coarse linen quietly bowed his head before Yan Yin and then continued softly, ‘Young Family Head, the situation in the outer city is, although somewhat improved from a few days ago, still somewhat chaotic due to the increasingly turbulent situation within the Da Feng Dynasty’s Royal Feng Family, combined with the emergence of the so-called Alliance of the Five Families. This has also led to more and more commoners, wealthy households, or those who originally held power wanting to inundate into Qingshi City.'”
“As for those desperate to enter Qingshi City, although the Lu Family members have already resorted to absolutely bloody measures,”
“their effectiveness is still quite minimal.”
“Having said that, the Yan Family servant quietly closed his mouth.”
“Yan Yin, the Young Family Head of the Yan Family,”
“now merely nodded calmly and waved his hand to dismiss the servant by his side.”
