Chapter 43 Su Ming's Plan
"Anyone who disagrees can challenge me." Su Ming brushed off the dust on his clothes, with an air of arrogance.
All around was silent, at this moment no one doubted Su Ming's strength. One punch injured the late-stage congenital realm Su Po, even Su Xian couldn't do that. Su Ming used this strike to prove he had surpassed Su Xian in strength and had the qualifications to be the tribe leader.
When he felt Su Ming's gaze like the god of death, Su Hei came back to his senses and a hint of panic appeared on his face. At this moment, he was somewhat at a loss for what to do.
It's not that Su Ming is stronger than Su Bo, but rather Su Bo didn't use any martial skills and just relied on his physical strength to throw a punch. Su Ming, on the other hand, used the Broken Shield Technique to augment his Tian Feng Fist, and the combination of the two was far from being simply 1+1. The fact that he managed to injure Su Bo already showed restraint.
"Great Uncle, are you going to fight or yield?" Su Ming asked in a cold tone.
Su Huan coughed lightly a few times, covering up the unease in his heart. Facing Su Mingyi's repeated pressure, he unexpectedly had a feeling of not wanting to resist. A sentence emerged in his mind: Am I destined to be inferior to others? No way, the position of clan leader must be mine. In an instant, a cunning plan appeared in his mind.
With a sigh and a smile, Su Hui said: "Since Su Ming's nephew has greatly increased his strength, I will return the position of tribe leader to Su Ming. I hope that Su Ming can lead the Su clan to prosperity and not repeat the mistakes of your father."
Su Huan's ability to gain the following of Su Po and others, as well as his long-standing high position in the Su family, is not only due to being Su Hao's eldest son. This person, apart from being afraid of death, is no worse than Su Han in other aspects, and even surpasses him in intelligence. His tolerance for humiliation is also extremely strong. However, his cleverness has not been used for good purposes. Otherwise, the Su clan would have only become better under his and Su Han's leadership.
Su Huan's words shocked everyone in the scene, especially those behind Su Huan. They stood still, unsure of what to do next, and didn't know what Su Huan was going to do.
Su Ming sneered and ignored Su He, walking directly towards the council hall.
Su Huan originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to hand over power to Su Ming's army, so that Su Ming wouldn't be too proud. Who knew that Su Ming didn't put him in his eyes, making him lose all face.
Isn't Su Ming really confident that he can take care of himself once and for all? Su Xuan's heart rose with a thread of worry.
After Su Ming walked into the conference hall, the others followed closely behind and entered the conference hall. When they saw Su Ming sitting in the highest position of the clan leader in the conference hall, everyone had some unspeakable twists in their hearts. After all, Su Ming was just a junior to them, and now they were asked to listen to and obey a junior, which made them feel somewhat unwilling.
"I know many of you are dissatisfied, but it doesn't matter. I'll announce a few orders and then step down as the clan leader. What do you think?" Su Ming said with a faint smile, speaking slowly.
After Su Ming finished speaking, the people in the conference hall looked at each other in confusion, not understanding what Su Ming was getting at. Only Old Man Su showed a look of approval.
"I see you all don't have any opinions, so I'll just announce it directly." Su Ming took advantage of the crowd's momentary stunned silence to continue: "First order, strip Su Po of all titles and positions within the clan, demote him to a tribal squad leader, and for five years he is not allowed to enter the Su family residence. If anyone pleads on his behalf, they will receive the same punishment."
Without explanation, without discussion, the tone was extremely harsh, making several people who wanted to speak for Su Po swallow their words back into their stomachs. The injured Su Po looked at Su He and let out a sigh, lowering his head.
"The second decree, Su Lao is appointed as the Guardian Elder, in charge of the power of life and death within the clan, with a status second only to the Clan Leader. The third decree, Su Qing is appointed as the Grand Commander. The fourth decree, Su Ai is appointed as the Deputy Commander. Today, lead three thousand warriors to the Xuan Tie Mine, assist Grand Commander Su Qing in retaking the Xuan Tie territory and bring back Clan Leader Su Han."
Wait a minute
As soon as Su Huan heard the four words "Su Han's clan leader", he was shocked in his heart. He finally knew what idea Su Ming had been thinking of, and it turned out that he wanted to pass on the position of clan leader to his father, and also pave the way for everything. He absolutely couldn't let Su Ming have his way, because if Su Han became the clan leader, then he would never have a chance to turn things around.
"What's your objection?" Su Ming turned his head to look at Su Huan, his expression unchanged, as if he had expected Su Huan to raise an objection.
"Su Ming, these orders of yours seem to be overly self-serving, completely disregarding the interests of the tribe." Su Huan said in a cold tone.
"What personal feelings? Which of my orders had personal feelings?" Su Ming asked.
"Article one, dismiss Su Bo as the Grand Marshal and demote him to battalion commander, expel him from the Su family for five years. Isn't this also a personal vendetta? Su Bo just attacked you earlier, and you retaliated like this. Moreover, he is still your uncle, and has the right to attack you."
"Great uncle, if you understand it that way, then you are greatly mistaken. I relinquished the position of Su Po's leader because he has not gone to battle for the Su clan in over a decade. Grandfather once said that any Su family son who wants to become the Su clan leader must go to battle for the Su clan and kill enemies for the Su clan."
"Suo Bo's leader has never gone on an expedition, because the tribe's affairs are busy, and he has been assisting me in doing things, so there is no time to lead the army on an expedition."
"Since Su Bo is devoted to the Su family, he shouldn't take the position of Grand Marshal. This position is responsible for commanding tens of thousands of Su warriors. Letting someone who has never been on a battlefield take this role, I think many people won't accept it. Su Qing has led numerous battles with more wins than losses and even went to battle injured this time. His spirit is something we can all learn from, so I think Su Qing is more suitable for the position of Grand Marshal."
"Even if Su Qing is more suitable for the position of Grand Marshal, it's not necessary to demote Su Bo to a battalion commander, who has already been expelled from the Su family for five years." Su Huan saw that Su Ming's words were reasonable and knew that the position of Grand Marshal was irretrievable, but he still wanted to fight for Su Bo to at least become a deputy marshal. Only in this way would they have military power, and in an era where wars are constant, having military power means having the right to speak.
"Su Bo is actually a postnatal saint, letting him stay in the Su family to handle internal affairs is a bit of a waste of his talent. I think it's better to let him go to the tribe to hone his skills, lead the Su clan warriors to win a few victories, and then the Su clan leader will have reason to restore his position as leader. Let him return to the Su family, do you think what I said is right, Big Brother?"
"I think the clan leader is right, Su Bo has indeed lost some of his heart in recent years. If he continues like this, even entering the Tianling realm will be useless. He must go out and temper himself." Su Lao was the first to stand up and support Su Ming, which doubled the pressure on Su Huan's body.
