Because of his work, outsiders didn't know much about Wei Guang, only that he was the younger brother of Wei Dust, the head of the Wei family.
However, this name was a great deterrent to the clansmen of the Wei family.
Simply because, this person was responsible for all intelligence work inside and outside the family.
Externally, he collected information on partners and even competitors and investigated their details.
Internally, he monitors the behaviour and behaviour of the clan's top officials, and the use of public office for personal gain.
It can be said that Wei Guang's existence is like a sword.
Above, it can cut down the blood relatives of the clan, and below, it can eliminate the forces of other clans.
Most of the Wei family's decisions were made based on the information and advice Wei Guang provided.
From this, it is enough to see the weight of this man in the whole family.
Even his son, who had broken the family's rules, was removed from an important position and eventually transferred out of Zhonghai to a remote place.
It was for this reason that the people of the Wei family had some fear of Wei Guang in their hearts.
Just like this moment, after seeing Wei Guang appear, the whole hall immediately fell silent.
Many people were drumming in their hearts, thinking, "What is Wei Guang doing here at this time?
Could it be that he had caught someone in the clan again?
"It looks like someone is going to suffer again~"
In the hall, many people secretly shook their heads and whispered in their hearts.
Anyway, in the eyes of the crowd, as long as Wei Guang appeared, it was designated that nothing good would come of it.
The last time he appeared, he had brought down an uncle generation clan elder within the clan.
This time, I wonder who it is again?
"Everyone's here, right?"
Soon, Wei Chen had walked up to the high seat.
Standing there, he looked around and asked in a deep voice.
There was a hush, and no one in the entire hall responded.
"It looks like everyone has come."
"In that case, second brother, then let's begin."
After Wei Chen said a few simple words, he handed over the rest of the meeting to his second brother, Wei Guang.
This meeting was requested by Wei Guang.
What exactly the content was, Wei Dust himself actually didn't know.
However, looking at Wei Guang's tone and look, Wei Dust could guess that he was afraid that there was some important information that was going to be announced.
Soon after, Wei Guang walked up.
Before he could speak, the atmosphere in the entire hall had already froze.
"Gentlemen, I apologise for summoning everyone in such haste to convene today's meeting."
"However, the matter is so important that I will have to take up everyone's rest time."
After a few words of ceremony, Wei Guang's tone cooled down.
He raised his head, looked at the crowd, and continued, "I don't know if you've heard, but some days ago, there was a drastic change in Yanjing's power."
"Several of the major magnate powers and worldly families and gentry have almost all suffered a reshuffle."
As soon as Wei Guang finished these words, several people below nodded their heads.
"This we know. Didn't we say that a few years ago, a Yanjing King emerged from Yanjing, and it seems that they all called him Mr. Chu. The Xu family, which previously ranked at the bottom of the four great families in Yanjing, and the Xue family, one of the three new nobles, all submitted to him. In the past few years, this Mr. Chu's power has been flourishing in Yanjing, and his voice has become more and more powerful."
"Yes. We have also heard that Xu Lei, the current Xu family head, is this Mr. Chu's adopted lover."
"In the past few years, this Xu Lei Xu family head has expanded her ambitions by relying on the power of that Mr. Chu."
"Last year, she even extended her hand to our Zhonghai."
"However, in the end, he was beaten back by our Wei family, and after apologizing on our doorstep, he rolled back to Yanjing in disgrace."
"Haha~"
Below the hall, someone laughed harshly.
When he said this, there was an unstoppable pride and pride on his face.
Others, none other than the same. That sense of superiority was overwhelming.
That look was as if they were saying, "What bullshit Mr. Chu? What Xu family and Xue family?
When faced with the majesty of my Wei family, they would still have to meekly apologise and submit?
However, in response to the crowd's words, Wei Guang shook his head, "What I'm talking about is not that."
"The Xu family is certainly powerful, but it is only a declining powerful family, even in its heyday, it was not enough to compete with our Wei family. As for the so-called Three New Noblemen's Xue Family, there's no need to say anything, it's just a burgeoning family, it's not worthy of my special investigation."
"What I am going to say this time is about the Lu family and the Xu family."
Wei Guang's words caused the crowd to stare.
"The Lu family and the Xu family?"
"You mean, those two big red giants in Yanjing?"
Wei Guang nodded, "It is exactly them."
"Perhaps none of you have noticed, a year or so ago, the Lu and Xu families had a change of heart."
"The head of the Lu family, Lu He, was suspended from his post and transferred out, and the entire family even quietly moved away from their ancestral land."
"The Xu family's old man, Xu Junlin, died a violent death, and the second head of the Xu family was jailed."
"Overnight, the two formerly prosperous giants fell from their heights."
Wha... What?
"The Lu family moved their clan?"
"The second head of the Xu family was jailed?"
"The old man Xu Junlin is dead too?"
"This... How is this possible?"
"When did this happen, how come we don't know anything about it."
"What exactly happened?"
Wei Guang's words caused the hall to tremble.
Everyone in the hall was dumbfounded and only felt full of shock.
Yanjing and Zhonghai were separated by thousands of miles, though.
However, the Lu Xu family and the Xue family were both among the top forces in Yanxia, and had not had much contact with each other over the years.
Especially when Xu Junlin was in power, the relationship between the Xu and Wei families was like glue.
Among the Wei family today, there are girls from the Xu family who have married over.
It was because they knew each other that the Wei family knew the strength of these two families.
However, they had never imagined that such a big change would occur overnight for such a powerful family.
This was both unbelievable and extraordinarily alarming.
"It's normal for you guys not to know."
"The news was blocked."
"It was only after a long time that I learned of the current status of their two families."
"During this period of time, I have also been investigating this matter."
"I also wanted to find out what had caused the two great families, which had once flourished, to topple overnight?"
"It wasn't until I made a trip to Jiangdong this time that I was able to completely figure out the reason for this."
Wei Guang looked serious, and his low voice echoed unceasingly in the hall.
"Tell me quickly, what is the reason?"
"Could it be that someone really has the power of the heavens?"
"Even if we, the Wei family, were to step on these two powerful families in Yanjing, then it would definitely break our bones."
All the people raised their heads and asked Wei Guang anxiously.
The words were filled with curiosity and doubts.
Wei Chen's expression was equally serious, and his brows were furrowed.
Could it be that there was another powerful force that had emerged from the land of Yanxia?
Faced with the curiosity and doubts of the crowd, Wei Guang did not speak.
He just had someone hang a huge poster of a person's portrait on the wall.
The poster depicted a young boy.
His body is thin and his eyebrows are deep.
He was standing by the lake, with his arms folded.
A pair of cold eyes, looking into the distance, nearly pierced through a thousand years.
"This... This is?"
The crowd was in awe.
Wei Guang said in a deep voice, "That's him."
"The Venerable of Jiangdong, Ye Fan."
"The man known as, Mr. Chu!"
The whole room was at a standstill.
The entire hall was near to holding its breath.
Wei Lu, Wei Dust's niece, was even so shocked that her jade hand covered her red lips.
"This..."
"How is this possible?"
"Just a teenager, he... He has so much power?"
"To be able to take down a century-old family with a rich heritage?"
Everyone to drew in a cold breath and spoke in disbelief.
