Chapter: 2835
After He Yingdong ran back, he didn’t stop the others from loading the car. Instead, he hurried into the house and told everyone, “My father says to wait in the main hall. He is paying respect to our ancestors. Later, he will come back to announce something important.”
Someone asked, “Yingdong, what important thing will your father announce?”
He Yingdong shook his head. “I don’t know. Let’s just wait and see together!”
At ten o’clock in the morning, the Su family’s motorcade left on time, carrying He Yingquan and over 40 other members of the He family as they traveled south.
The He family members were very excited during the journey. Su Anshun had told them that Su Chengfeng, the elder of the Su family, was willing to pay them one billion yuan a year.
However, this decision was tough for Su Chengfeng. He had to invite many young people instead of the real experts, which meant he would spend a lot of money without getting the best help. Yet, he couldn’t take any risks with his safety, so even with just a part of the He family, he had to keep them on his side. After all, this money would only last for one year. Once the problems were resolved, they could set a new price for the following year or find better helpers.
Meanwhile, after He Hongsheng paid his respects to the He family ancestors, he returned to the He family mansion. The remaining seventy or eighty family members waited anxiously in the main hall. They whispered to each other, discussing the family that had just left and speculating on what important news the elder would share. They chose to stay, partly out of deep respect and trust for their leader.
He Hongsheng and his group were eager to master martial arts and didn’t care much about money. They were all waiting for He Hongsheng to arrive and explain the situation to them.
At a quarter past ten, He Hongsheng walked into the main hall with He Yingxiu by his side. When he saw the seventy or eighty people gathered there, he felt a sense of relief beneath his serious demeanor. The crowd looked surprised to see him. Although they couldn’t tell exactly how strong He Hongsheng had become, they could all sense that he seemed younger and more powerful than before.
He Hongsheng surveyed the room and spoke calmly, “Some people just left, and I know you all noticed.” Everyone fell silent, unsure if he was upset or pleased.
With a gentle smile, He Hongsheng continued, “As a family dedicated to progress, the He family acts like a team. It’s okay for some to fall behind or leave, but we cannot allow anyone to hold us back. So their departure is a good thing for those of us who remain.”
Then, his tone turned serious. “I officially declare that the He family has severed ties with those who left today. They will have nothing to do with us from now on, and they will not be allowed to return. Remember this decision; even if I am gone, my successor will uphold it!”
His words filled everyone with a sense of respect and awe. Was this truly a complete break? Among those who left were not just acquaintances but also family members.
The younger brother and his cousin were present when something surprising happened. They wondered why the old man seemed unconcerned and didn’t want to help at all. Just when everyone was starting to recover from the shock, He Hongsheng cleared his throat and announced, “I have something very important to share!”
Everyone thought he was going to talk about cutting ties with the people they had just discussed. But to their surprise, he had something even more significant to reveal. Everyone leaned in, eager to hear what he had to say. He Hongsheng couldn’t contain his excitement and exclaimed, “This morning, I opened my fourth meridian!”
His words sent shockwaves through the crowd!
