Chapter 1769: He Cannot Escape
However, Beiwu has a private infirmary, which is equipped with the most advanced equipment in the world.
The group went to the infirmary and then underwent a series of examinations.
By the time the examination results came out, it was already afternoon.
Yeteng looked at the results, and he was completely stunned on the spot.
Because Beiwu is a bit old, his heart and lung functions are somewhat poor, and his blood pressure, blood lipids, and other indicators are all in a sub-healthy state.
But the current examination results show that Beiwu is abnormally healthy; he doesn't even have a fatty liver anymore. One must know that he had a systematic check-up just a week ago, and his body was not in such good condition, so how did he suddenly become so healthy now? This is simply unbelievable.
"The medicine you gave Beiwu Xiong is not ordinary medicine, is it?" After Xingzi left, Zhao Ping walked over and asked.
"Of course it's not ordinary medicine; it can extend his life by more than ten years," Chen Yu said. "And during this period, he will be immune to all diseases."
"You gave him such good medicine? He isn't very close to us, and he is a Fusang person after all," Zhao Ping said, somewhat unwillingly.
"That depends on whether he is obedient or not," Chen Yu smiled. "If he is obedient, this medicine will naturally prolong his life; if he is disobedient, the life-saving medicine can turn into poison at any time."
"Understood, so you have everything under your control," Zhao Ping suddenly realized, and then he asked impatiently, "When are we going to the Songyi Family? I can't wait any longer."
"That depends on whether they have gathered their people and whether they have washed their necks clean. If they have gathered their people and washed their necks clean, then we can go to the Songyi Family to be guests at any time."
"Good, I will have people go and scout it out," Zhao Ping nodded and ran out in a hurry.
All members of the Songyi Family have already retreated to the old residence of the Songyi.
Their family's heritage is long-standing, dating back several hundred years. Over the years, they have always moved within the center of power, which is why their family has been able to flourish for so long.
Their old residence is also regarded as a place of good feng shui; this place enshrines the spirit tablets of their ancestors, and the tall ancestral hall looks extremely magnificent.
Now, the direct descendants of the Songyi Family have almost all gathered here. Songyi Chi lit a few sticks of incense, held them high above his head, and bowed to the ancestors' spirit tablets.
Nearly a hundred direct descendants looked solemn and slowly knelt on the ground, praying for the ancestors' protection.
In the vast ancestral hall, hundreds of spirit tablets stood high above; these were the ancestors of the Songyi Family, and several famous criminals were also among them.
After finishing the worship, Songyi Chi led everyone to the main hall of the old residence.
"Have all the people arrived?" Songyi Chi asked an elderly butler with white hair on the side.
Songyi Chi nodded slightly, stood up, and scanned the room: "Everyone, please be quiet."
The noisy hall immediately quieted down.
The Songyi Family has developed for hundreds of years and has quite a few direct descendants, but in the last few days, nearly half of their direct descendants in various places have been sniped by the Empress, and those present are all panic-stricken.
"I think everyone already knows about what has happened in the family recently," Songyi Chi paused and gritted his teeth: "Although I am not very willing to admit it, I have to say that this is the greatest crisis our Songyi Family has faced in hundreds of years."
"The opponent is very strong, and the safety of our clansmen's lives has been severely threatened, so we have all been summoned here."
"You are right, the opponent is very strong, but our clansmen are scattered across Fusang and overseas. What is the meaning of you ordering everyone to return with a single piece of paper? Are you trying to let the opponent wipe us all out in one go?" Just then, a young man spoke up.
Song Yimu is Songyi Chi's own nephew. His father passed away more than ten years ago; of course, his father's passing had an inseparable connection with Songyi Chi.
Disputes within large families are the most terrifying. Songyi Chi and Song Yimu's father were both expected to take charge of the family back then, so he has always believed that his father's death was caused by Songyi Chi.
This is also the reason why Song Yimu tries every possible way to oppose Songyi Chi whenever he makes any decision.
"Song Yimu, I know you have opinions about me, but I have my reasons for doing this. Now the family has reached a critical moment of danger, so we should be even more united to defend our family. If our family is gone, no one will be able to escape," Songyi Chi said sternly.
"Hehe, you are right, no one will be able to escape. But is your approach really appropriate? As far as I know, the opponent is an extremely powerful Dharma Cultivator. He is a master among our family, and no one is his match."
"For him, there is no difference between one person and a hundred people; it's just as simple as stepping on a few more ants under his shoe. You summoned us back, is it to make it convenient for him to slaughter us?"
"Shut up! I have my reasons for doing this naturally. I think you also know how serious the threats our people have received in other places are," Songyi Chi suppressed the anger in his heart: "I don't care how deep your opinions of me are, but now is a critical moment of family danger, I ask you to shut up."
"Uncle, since you took office, you have always had the final say, but do you know? The influence of the Songyi Family is not as great as it used to be, and the family has inexplicably encountered such a crisis. I have reason to doubt your personal ability," Song Yimu sneered.
Song Yimu's ability is quite good, and he has a group of supporters with not-insignificant strength within the family. Now that Song Yimu has raised his own doubts, it immediately caused a wave of discussion.
Everyone expressed their full agreement with this matter.
Some even questioned Songyi Chi's purpose in doing this—was he using the hands of an external enemy to eliminate his own opponents?
"Quiet, everyone be quiet." Seeing the voices of discussion getting louder and louder, as the Head of Family, Songyi Chi had to clear his throat and put on his authority as the Head of Family.
The sound in the room gradually faded. He said indifferently: "I have my reasons for doing this. Since I was elected as the Head of Family by everyone, I must be responsible for everyone's safety." He glanced at Song Yimu: "Our direct descendants have lost more than half in just two days. Don't you know about this?"
"Of course I know, but no matter how powerful the opponent is, he still needs to find our clansmen one by one. You gathering everyone together like this, is it to make it convenient for him to kill us?" Song Yimu sneered.
"Of course not. When everyone gathers together, our strength will be greater, as I just said," Songyi Chi's face darkened slightly: "And regarding today's matter, I have already made countermeasures."
