The Two-Faced Venerate Emperor Chapter 1337 – The Clan Has Let You Down……

Chapter 1337 – The Clan Has Let You Down……

Ji Mo Wu Chang retracted his gaze as well. Truthfully, he had also felt that the Ji Mo Ya now could no longer hold the Ji Mo Clan. However, whenever he thought of the effort given by Brat Ya, he could not speak out. This would only make him seem overly cold and unfeeling as the Clan Patriarch.

Ji Mo Wu Xin did not back down: “He was nurtured with complete support of the entire Ji Mo Clan from the moment he was born as one of us. Isn’t it only natural for him to contribute back to the clan? Now that he has reached such a state, who was at fault? He married a Demoness and was deceived by her, is that our mistake? He had strived to improve the clan’s standing, but the clan has likewise been devoted to him. Must all members of the clan who made contributions to the clan be made a patriarch?”

“You…” Ji Mo Yi Fan was feeling depressed as he looked at Ji Mo Wu Xin’s stance. When suddenly, the former had a flash of inspiration: “So after being so longwinded, you just want to be the clan patriarch? Why bother suppressing Brat Ya to make yourself stand out?”

Ji Mo Wu Xin replied frankly: “I indeed want to be the clan patriarch. However, it is not because of myself, I am doing this due to my devotion to the Ji Mo Clan! The Ji Mo Clan is currently heading into decline. If Brat Ya becomes the Clan Patriarch, we will only be pressed under the Nan Gong Clan. Moreover, Brat Ya and the Demoness were married and even had a mix-blooded child. This is his most enormous stain. If humanity engaged in war with the demons again in the future, who will he choose? Who is the Ji Mo Clan going to pick at that time?

I do not expect all of you to understand how painstaking this is to me. I have a clear conscience!”

Ji Mo Yi Fan turned his head to look at Ji Mo Wu Chang and saw that the latter be moved by that sentiment. It was apparent that Ji Mo Wu Xin’s words have moved him.

He continued to sweep his gaze through the entire area. Except for a couple of elders looking unwilling, the rest have revealed expressions of agreement.

Ji Mo Yi Fan felt his heart wrapped in ice when he realized that the situation had been decided. He could only try his best to strive for as much benefit as possible for Ji Mo Ya: “Looks like everyone is coming to an agreement. Even if that is the case, we cannot forget about the contributions Brat Ya has made. Else others might say our Ji Mo Clan is acting ruthless and harsh towards a great contributor of the clan and forgets about righteousness for the sake of profits. I believe none of you wants to carry such a reputation, right?”

Ji Mo Wu Chang immediately replied, “Of course not, Brat Ya had contributed significantly to our clan. Even if he cannot be the Clan Patriarch, he can still be the First Elder. A position of great status and will not be controlled by the Clan Patriarch. He will also be given the same favorable treatment like the Clan Patriarch!”

Ji Mo Wu Xin’s goal was the position of Clan Patriarch. Once the greater authority falls into his hand, what can an elder with no power do at that time? So what if it is the First Elder, or giving Ji Mo Ya the same treatment as the Clan Patriarch, all of these are just empty things.

That was why he readily agreed.

Now that the matter was settled. Ji Mo Yi Fan, the elders, the previous Clan Patriarch and new Clan Patriarch, started drafting an agreement. Once the details were agreed, Ji Mo Yi Fan flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

The small courtyard of Ji Mo Ya.

Ji Mo Yi Fan took out the agreement with an expression of shame and placed it in front of Ji Mo Ya. Not daring to look at Ji Mo Ya’s face for more than a moment: “The next clan patriarch, the appointment ceremony will take place in a few days. Brat Ya, you… you will be the First Elder of our clan from now on. You will not be under the Clan Patriarch’s jurisdiction and will receive the same treatment as the Clan Patriarch… I…” He sighed, “… the clan has disappointed you…”

Ji Mo Ya’s gaze lightly swept over the agreement before he retracted his gaze. His face was still and peaceful without any changes.

Even the faint curl of his mouth remained unchanged as he replied: “This is within expectations, Elder has no need to feel guilty. Thank you for fighting for me and allowing me to attained such a high status!”

This caused Ji Mo Yi Fan’s face to display even more fl.u.s.tered. The words were literally a slap to everyone in the Ji Mo Clan. Yet he could find no words in his vocabulary to explain or rebuke.
