Chen Qingdi could also sense Ni Wei's hostility.
"Dad, even if we're going to the Luo Family, we need to plan this properly. If we just go like this, we'll be acting without a just cause. What will all the great families in Jingxi say about us?"
Wu Qiang said directly.
"I can't worry about all that. In any case, I must get back the Ancient Martial Arts Books our ancestors left behind."
Wu Jinfeng had already made up his mind.
"Those who agree we shouldn't go, please raise your hands."
Wu Qiang suddenly said.
As Wu Qiang spoke, Ni Wei immediately raised his hand, followed by a few others here and there.
Seeing this, Wu Jinfeng's brow furrowed slightly.
"Qiang, what do you think you're doing?"
Wu Jinfeng looked at Wu Qiang unhappily.
'Is this brat trying to show off his prestige in the family? I haven't even stepped down yet.'
In Elder Wu's eyes, Wu Qiang might even be connected to his wife's madness. They could all see his ambition to seize the position of Patriarch.
This time, it was even more obvious.
"Dad, I'm doing this for the good of the entire Wu Family."
"Right now, if we go looking for trouble with the Luo Family, not only do we lack a just cause, but we also have no proof."
"Just because the Hundred Fist Atlas is missing, you're claiming it was stolen by some peerless thief harbored by the Luo Family. Isn't that a bit of a stretch?"
Wu Qiang said, shaking his head.
"It is because I say it is."
"I have proof."
"Besides, I am still the Patriarch of the Wu Family. It's not your place to tell me how to do things."
"If you want to go, then come along. If you don't, then stop making trouble for me here. Do you understand?"
Wu Jinfeng looked at Wu Qiang, his face etched with displeasure.
Chen Qingdi hadn't expected to witness a scene of a father and son vying for power upon his arrival.
'It seems this Wu Qiang has long been unable to hold back his desire to take over as the Wu Family Patriarch.'
'But the old man won't let go, so he's decided to show his muscle.'
"Dad, I can't stand by and watch you make a mistake."
"I won't let you go."
Wu Qiang said in a low voice.
"Rebellion! This is rebellion!"
"Are you trying to rebel?"
Wu Jinfeng said, his face flush with anger.
Wu Qiang didn't speak, just watched the scene with an exceptionally calm expression.
At the same time, his gaze fell on Chen Qingdi.
"Mr. Chen, I need to handle some family matters now. There's nothing for you here. You can leave!"
Wu Qiang told Chen Qingdi to leave.
"It doesn't seem like you were the one who invited me."
"Elder Wu invited me. He hasn't asked me to leave, so how could I?"
Chen Qingdi, however, had no intention of leaving.
This made Wu Qiang very unhappy.
"What's this? You're not listening to me?!"
Wu Qiang stared coldly at Chen Qingdi.
He'd been annoyed with Chen Qingdi for a while now.
"Why should I listen to you?"
"You're not the Patriarch of the Wu Family,"
Chen Qingdi said.
"Good, good, good!"
Wu Qiang repeated the word "good" three times.
At this point, it was obvious that Wu Qiang was furious.
Wu Qiang glanced at Ni Wei.
Ni Wei immediately understood Wu Qiang's meaning.
As an extremely powerful old Tributor of the Wu Family, Ni Wei was a staunch supporter of Wu Qiang.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have raised his hand just now.
Ni Wei glanced at another Tributor, He Gu.
He Gu was a Master at the seventh level.
Ni Wei, however, was at the ninth level of the Master realm.
He Gu slowly stepped forward, his eyes on Chen Qingdi.
"Young man, you can leave now."
"Next, Young Master Wu needs to handle his family affairs."
He Gu said.
"He Gu, this is a guest I invited. And you're just telling him to leave?"
"You are all being far too disrespectful."
Wu Jinfeng said, his face contorted with anger.
"Dad, you're really getting senile. Don't worry about this matter. Let me handle it."
"I will definitely find a way to get the Hundred Fist Atlas back, alright?"
Wu Qiang said.
"No."
Wu Jinfeng said, his voice resolute.
Seeing the resolute look on his father's face, Wu Qiang felt a surge of anger.
"Dad, I've done so much for the Wu Family. For all these years, if it weren't for me, the Wu Family would have long since fallen into decline!"
"Have you not seen any of the effort I've put in?"
"Must you embarrass me in front of an outsider?"
"Well, let me tell you, today I'm going to be the one calling the shots."
Wu Qiang said loudly, his entire demeanor changing.
"What now? Are you trying to seize the Patriarch's position by force?"
Wu Jinfeng said, his expression cold.
"Yes!"
"I am qualified."
"Have my two older brothers ever helped you?"
"Only I have stayed by your side, bearing all the burdens without complaint. My conscience is clear in taking the position of Patriarch."
Wu Qiang said.
"Good, good, good. To think you'd set up such an elaborate scheme. At first, you said you wanted to work with me, heart and soul, to find the Hundred Fist Atlas. I never imagined you just wanted to force me into retirement."
Wu Jinfeng shook his head helplessly, laughing softly.
"Dad, you're old. You're over seventy. You should have stepped down long ago. All these years, I've been tolerating you."
"But you just treat me like I'm invisible, completely ignoring my feelings."
"What have my two brothers ever done for you? You give them hundreds of millions every month, but what about me? I stay by your side and all I get is your criticism."
Wu Qiang seemed to feel very wronged.
Meanwhile, Chen Qingdi just stood to the side, watching the scene dispassionately.
Chen Qingdi suspected that Wu Jinfeng had invited him not just to solve the matter of the Hundred Fist Atlas, but also because he had anticipated that Wu Qiang might try to seize the position of Patriarch.
"It's precisely because you were by my side that I had to train you properly—not just in business, but also in the Martial Dao. But look at yourself. What progress have you made in the Martial Dao over all these years?"
"You're still just at the Guiyuan realm, not even having entered the Master realm."
"With that, how can you bear the responsibility of being the Wu Family's Patriarch?"
Wu Jinfeng shook his head incessantly.
"This position of Patriarch, Dad, are you going to give it up or not!"
"It's time you handed the Patriarch's Seal over to me,"
Wu Qiang said.
"You brat. I knew you'd do this."
"But I never thought your rebellious nature would show itself so quickly."
"Originally, I was planning to hand over the position of Patriarch to you in a few months."
"But now, this display has let me see you for who you really are."
"The burden of the Wu Family is one you cannot carry. So, don't even think about it."
Elder Wu said.
Hearing Wu Jinfeng say this, Wu Qiang became furious.
"Today, you will hand over power, whether you want to or not."
Wu Qiang said angrily, his gaze turning incomparably cold.
"Are you all there?"
Wu Qiang roared.
"Here!"
A resounding chorus suddenly erupted from outside.
One could tell from the sound that there were many people out there.
BANG.
