Strongest Wastrel

0When we arrived outside the nameless courtyard, there were more than thirty people following behind me. However, the matter had shaken the entire Li Family, causing more and more people to gather here.    

    

And at this moment, in the nameless courtyard, the gate was still tightly shut, but it seemed exceptionally peaceful.    

    

"Junior's eldest grandson Lee Shaobai is here to meet you." I stood outside the door and cupped my hands together in contemplation. I gave a slight bow and instantly broke the silence.    

    

A soft sigh could be heard from inside as the door slowly opened. The old man held onto his walking stick while the woman appeared in front of everyone.    

    

"Follow me to the ancestral hall." The old man stepped forward in a hunched manner as if he had expected this and immediately led the way.    

    

My mother followed me and gave me a meaningful look.    

    

I secretly nodded my head and followed behind her. I didn't say anything during the entire process.    

    

The other Li Family members also came to a tacit understanding as they all silently followed, their expressions gradually becoming more and more serious.    

    

Until they arrived outside the ancestral hall, there were more than a hundred people gathered there. They gathered from all directions, as if they had all received the news.    

    

Even the upper echelons of the Li Family were alarmed, and came together.    

    

"Today... Something big is going to happen in the Li Family. "    

    

"The eldest grandson is back. The first thing he does is go to the ancestral hall?"    

    

"Does the old man really intend to make him Crown Prince?"    

    

"..."    

    

However, I didn't see Lee Qinghao among these figures. I don't know if he was afraid of being slapped in the face by me, but he didn't dare to come.    

    

"Enter the ancestral hall." The old man's voice was filled with the vicissitudes of life as he first stepped into the ancestral hall.    

    

"Yes." I followed him in and found that there were many memorial tablets inside, and the censer was filled with incense.    

    

"Take the incense." The old man waved his hand.    

    

When my mother heard this, she immediately took out some incense from the ancestral hall and handed it to me. She winked at me, hinting that I should be more serious.    

    

"Since you are the eldest grandson of my Li Family, there is no need to make such a big fuss. Three kowtows to our ancestors, and we will return home with incense." The old man said.    

    

At this moment, all of the people who entered the temple subconsciously closed their mouths and didn't dare to speak.    

    

I took a deep breath and immediately followed the old man's instructions. Holding the incense in my hand, I paid my respects to my ancestor three times. Then, I placed it in the incense burner and carried it out one by one.    

    

After doing all this, the old man looked at me quietly and did not speak.    

    

I stood in front of the memorial tablet, motionless, waiting for the old man to speak. I knew he had something to say.    

    

After a long while, the old man suddenly spoke in front of everyone from the Li Family, "You … Do you want to become the crown prince? "    

    

When these words were spoken, the entire audience gasped in shock, disbelief written all over their faces.    

    

"He actually asked about the crown prince the moment he arrived."    

    

"From the tone of the old tutor, it sounds like he intends to directly become the crown prince?"    

    

"Six heirs have tried so hard but still couldn't get the old man to nod in acknowledgement. Was this Lee Shaobai's treatment the moment he arrived? This is unfair. "    

    

"This is too unfair. Even if it were the eldest grandson, he shouldn't be so biased."    

    

I have already expected these words and there will definitely be people who think they are biased. The old man must have asked this because he wanted to maintain justice and give the conditions to become the crown prince.    

    

Thus, I nodded my head without concealing anything and said, "Yes, I think."    

    

"You can't. You have to come up with something convincing. If the other princes are convincing, they can join in as well." The old man's gaze swept across his surroundings before lightly shaking his head.    

    

As soon as the words left his mouth, the entire audience boiled up with excitement.    

    

"Yes, if you want to become Crown Prince, you have to have something convincing."    

    

"If there aren't any, I think we can forget about it this time. Young Master Zhangsun's status is already very high."    

    

"The lordmaster's meaning is clear. For the sake of fairness, all six princes can participate."    

    

"That is to say, any prince could become the crown prince today!"    

    

At this moment, Lee Ji's face was red and swollen, being helped in by the four elders from outside the door. He glared at me with an extremely resentful gaze, and said while gnashing his teeth: "Lee Shaobai, today you are considered strong, but if you want to become the crown prince, you have to get past me first."    

    

Saying this, Lee Ji looked at the third son, Li Jin, "Ol 'Three, if you don't want to be trampled on in the future, then take advantage of the situation. There is still Ol' Five, you are the strongest one among the six of us, do you want others to snatch the position of Crown Prince away from you?"    

    

"Young Master Zhangsun, I'm sorry. The old man said he made it very clear that we all have the right to participate." Li Jin stepped forward and stood in the middle of the crowd, seeming to want to compete.    

    

Subsequently, the silent fifth son, Li He, broke away from the crowd and stood a few meters away from Li Jin.    

    

Lee Ji smiled sinisterly and looked at me coldly. His meaning was very clear, even though he thinks that he is weak, he can't get it and he can't let me get it.    

    

I ignored him and completely ignored him. Then, I looked at Li Jin and Li He and said with a smile, "As the eldest grandson, I'll let you guys go first. Third Fatty, we'll start with you."    

    

"I, Li Jin, have the majority of assets on the outside. Everyone has witnessed my performance on Li Family for many years, and no one disagrees with my actions. As for the crown prince, he is mine." Li Jin's expression changed. It seemed that he didn't like the title I gave him, so he immediately frowned.    

    

Li He coldly snorted and said, "Li Jin, you think too highly of yourself. Amongst all the princes, who doesn't know that I, Li He, am the true first prince? You only respect you as one of the six great branch families, while I am the one with the highest hopes in the entire Li Family. Even the branch heads would have to be respectful when they see me. "    

    

As the two of them spoke, for a moment, some people supported Li Jin, and some people supported Li He.    

    

I absent-mindedly listened to their argument. I thought, "Why isn't Lee Qinghao here yet?"    

    

After tossing and turning for a long time, Li Jin and Li He brought out many of their own conditions to compare, but in the end, they did not make a decision. Even Lee Ji was anxious, as if he knew that he had messed up and wanted to use the two of them to target me.    

    

I impatiently raised my hand to suppress the tense atmosphere. I asked indifferently, "Have you finished arguing? Then, it's my turn, right? "    

    

I didn't care if the others agreed or not, I immediately said, "Must we compete in terms? That... Is Metal River considered? "    

0

    

"Metal River? You are only the demoted Metal River Commander, not the boss. Anxious, Lee Ji interrupted to make things difficult.    

    

"What are you, a small commander? Furthermore, Metal River is fighting fervently with Heaven Sect, it is unknown who will be victorious in the end. "    

    

"In terms of conditions, who can you compare to? At most, you only have the status of a eldest grandson.    

    

"..."    

    

After hearing what Lee Ji said, I couldn't help but laugh deeply and ask, "Who exactly is the scarecrow? The reason why I can stand here today and not be locked up in Zhong Hai, can't you guess, Lee Ji? Why is your Lord Father not coming over yet? Could it be that you can't guess as well? "    

    

"What do you mean?" Lee Ji was stunned.    

    

I placed a hand on my waist and calmly said, "Actually, the entire plan to head south of Metal River was orchestrated by this prince. You said this prince is just a commander? He is indeed the commander of the entire Metal River. "    

    

"Heaven Sect? This prince can exterminate the Heaven Sect within a month. "    

    

"In other words, not only is this crown prince Young Lord from the Metal River, he is also someone who fully deserves the title of the crown prince … The number one person at the peak of the underground power. "    

    

Just a few short sentences from me made the entire crowd burst into an uproar.    

    

Li Jin and Li He were very dejected at the time. The two of them seemed like children playing house in front of me.    

    

Especially Lee Ji, he was choked by my words and his face turned green. He refused to believe me even when he died and said: "The first person …" How was this possible? Who are you lying to? How could Zhong Hai let you go? "    

    

"..."
