Chapter 8: The Unquiet Presbyterian Church


In the Longhua Kingdom, a large family like the Hu family with a history of more than a thousand years has an extremely strict internal hierarchy.

In the Hu family, in addition to the transcendent status of the high priest, the direct lineage head of the Jiuyou bloodline family is the most noble, and usually serves as the patriarch of the entire family.

Of course, the clan leader cannot be the sole leader in the Hu clan.

Most matters in the family must be managed by the entire extremely complex power structure of the Presbyterian Church.

Among them, the heads of the upper three branches, the Zebai lineage and the Liqing lineage, were appointed as the Great Elder of Huangquan and the Great Elder of Netherworld.

In addition, the family guards appointed by the high priest were appointed as the Chief Judgment Elder.

A total of three elders stood in the Presbyterian Council.

The pinnacle of power.

Below the great elder are the standing elders, a total of six elders composed of the heads of the lower three branches, the elders of the Chuan Gong, the elders of the criminal department, and the elders of the internal affairs.

They are usually based in Ningcheng and are responsible for the daily management of the family and some small matters.

They are mainly responsible for the resolution.

The remaining ordinary elder positions are given to the major branches to be supplemented through selection.

Usually, seniors in each branch who are strong in martial arts or have made great contributions to the family are filled.

They are ranked in seniority, from the second elder to the ninth elder.

There are eight elders in total.

At this time, in the Scarlet Blood Hall, in addition to the six standing elders, there were also the second elder, fifth elder and ninth elder who were currently in Ningcheng.

A total of nine elders were present.

When Hu Gao followed the clan leader in, he thought he had entered the altar of the Demon Cult.

The architect responsible for designing this hall had really poor taste.

Several pillars were dark, and the lines carved on them were as ugly as ghost drawings. .

The chair at the main seat is surprisingly big and even covered with animal skins, giving it a cottage-like feel.

The weirdest thing is that next to each seat below there is something similar to a copper tripod, with rising water rising inside.

There were clusters of bonfires, making the atmosphere very strange.

After the clan leader came in, the elders who were sitting and chatting all stood up.

Hu Yinxue, who had been sent by the clan leader to inform everyone, floated to Hu Gao's side at some point and followed the clan leader.

"Everyone, please sit down."

The patriarch, still smiling, calmly walked to the main seat facing the door, and then waved for Hu Gao to stand next to him.

"I called all the elders here today because I have something important to discuss with you.

During yesterday's sacrifice, everyone knew that the patron saint was seriously injured when he came.

He has fallen into a deep sleep.

We don't know when he will wake up.

Now we stand.

In front of everyone, Hu Gao is a blank body without any upper-world memory or power."

The patriarch simply said nothing and went straight to the point.

"But according to what the priest said before, Hu Gao's identity must be the inheritor.

There is no doubt about this.

The purpose of calling everyone here is to discuss how we can train the inheritor and revive the patron saint as soon as possible."

"Master Patriarch, I think we should arrange for the patron saint to go to the ancestral land, where the vitality of heaven and earth is at its strongest.

Maybe we can revive him as soon as possible."

The Ninth Elder, the most junior, was the first to say.

Several other elders nodded after whispering to each other.

At this moment, the second elder stood up and said: "Master Patriarch, this may not be appropriate.

As the saying goes, a weapon cannot be made without polishing it.

I think Hu Gao should go to the front line to fight."

Xue Te, Hu Gao couldn't help but glance at the second elder.

Ever since the sacrifice, he seemed to have felt that there was something wrong with this old guy.

Even though he said something nice, in fact, he just wanted to kill himself.

This kind of person must be careful in the future.

Be careful.

In addition, it can be seen from his words that the interior of the Hu family is not monolithic now.

"I agree with the second elder.

According to family records, the inheritor will have three lives after receiving the inheritance from the distant ancestors.

With such unique conditions, the right way is to hone oneself on the battlefield."

Another elder jumped out to support.

Three Lives Hu Gao suppressed his laughter seriously.

It seems that time travel is not without its benefits.

He actually has three lives.

He is definitely a tyrant.

"The second elder's thinking seems to be too simple.

The current inheritors don't have any martial arts and have no memory, which means they don't even have the basic knowledge of cultivation.

Even three lives are not enough to die.

Our Hu family is not rich yet.

To the extent that even the inheritors are sent to fill their lives."

This time it was the head of the Shaluo branch who spoke.

The Shaluo branch had a close relationship with the Liqing branch, so it was natural that he would turn to Hu Gao at this time.

Other elders also started to speak one after another, and it sounded like it was basically the butts that decided their stance, and no one could convince anyone.

The patriarch Hu Zhentian looked at the heat and made a downward gesture.

It was a good thing to have quarrels.

At this time, he would not be easily opposed if he stood up and made the final decision.

"What the elders said is reasonable, but as the Luo family leader said, "Hu Gao's current condition is really not suitable for going to the front line.

I think it would be better for him to go to the War Academy to lay the foundation first."

The elders on both sides were already at odds with each other, and since the clan leader's proposal was quite reasonable, they did not object, and the matter was settled.

"In addition, due to the special nature of the inheritors, I hope that the elders of Chuan Gong can open a small window for Hu Gao so that he can quickly master the martial arts techniques of our Hu family in addition to studying in the War Academy.

At the same time, the elders of the internal affairs can provide as much help as possible.

I wonder if the two elders have any opinions on the resources needed for cultivation?"

Hu Zhentian then suggested.

The two elders of Chuan Gong and Internal Affairs were direct descendants of Hu Zhentian, so naturally they had no objections, so these two proposals were successfully passed by the Presbyterian Council.

After all, there were no participation of the three great elders.

Under normal circumstances, even if there were opinions, No one dared to really challenge the authority of the patriarch.

"That's very good.

Except for the elder Chuan Gong, everyone else will leave the meeting."

After Hu Zhentian finished speaking, he turned to look at the calm Hu Gao and smiled.

He found out why this guy looked more and more enigmatic.

You know, the reason why he didn't tell the results of his own inspection of Hu Gao's body just now was because he found that there seemed to be a mysterious force in Hu Gao's body, which actually swallowed up all the energy that he sent to it, and almost Absorbed in seconds, this is really incredible.

Since he will leave for the Qingyuan Mine in the next few days, he must arrange things within the family before he can leave with peace of mind.

This Hu Gao is definitely not as simple as amnesia.

I am afraid that he already possesses part of the power of the inheritor.

Without knowing it, such a treasure must be cultivated well.

"You should know that I am about to leave for Qingyuan Mountain.

During this period, Hu Gao will have to rely on the two of you to take care of him.

You, Hu Yinxue, will be responsible for the affairs inside the Zhan Yuan, and Elder Chuan Gong will be responsible for the matters outside the Zhan Yuan. ” "Yes, Mr.

Patriarch."

The Chuan Gong Elder's name is Hu Feng.

He looks a bit older than the clan leader.

He comes from the Xuechi lineage.

He has been called a genius since he was a child.

His combat power is amazing, so he was given the title of Chuan Gong Elder. heavy responsibility.

As for Hu Yinxue, she was the mouthpiece of the clan leader within the Presbyterian Council.

Outside of the Presbyterian Council, she was still a member of the dark warriors, with a special status.

She also obeyed the orders of the high priest and the clan leader.

It was appropriate for Hu Zhentian to send her to be responsible for Hu Gao's safety.
