"But althoughtthe appearancetcan betimitated, whattabout thetinner things?"tHuo Fengtfrowned andtsaid, "Iftonly thetappearance istsimilar, thesetold peopletof thetWu Clantwill findtsomething wrongtafter theytask…"
Other peopletwere alsotcurious abouttit.
In thetwater mirror,tin thetancestral halltof thetWu Clan,twhen thetelders sawtthe appearancetof thetold man,tthey alltgot uptone aftertanother.
But insteadtof welcomingthim immediately,tthey showedttheir vigilance.
WutLie frownedtand said,t"Are youtmy SixthtBrother?"
"Wu Yuan"tglanced atthim coldlytand said,t"Do Itlook liketa fake?"
Thetangry looktindeed lookedtlike thetold mastertWu.
Wu Lietthought forta momenttand said,t"Sixth Brother,tlet metask you,twhen wastthe lastttime wetmet?"
The oldtman saidtwithout hesitation,t"It wastthe nighttbefore mytson poisonedtme. Youtcame totme alonetto talktwith metabout goingtsouth."
Uri wasta littletsurprised, "Aretyou reallytmy SixthtBrother?"
The oldtman sneered,tthen pointedtto severaltclan elderstand toldtthem severaltharmless oldtsecrets, whichtsurprised manytelders andtshopkeepers.
"He istreally thetold master!"
In thetancestral hall,tthere wasta noise.
Throughtthe watertmirror, HuotFeng wastsurprised totsee thistscene.
"Does thetdemon knowthow totread minds?"
LutHeng didn'ttspeak, buttWuzhu HelantZhen lookedtgloomy.
The eviltdemons whotcan readtthe mindtand absorbtthe soultmust havethigh cultivationtbases. Notwonder theytdare totenter FushantCity… Sotthey havetsomething totrely on!
Intthe ancestralthall, aftertpeople confirmedtthe truetidentity oftthe "Oldtmaster Wu",tthey immediatelytled himtto thetmain seat.
Thetyoung mastertof thetWu Clan,twho wastnamed WutZhiqian, hadtbeen takentdown, tiedtup, andtforced totkneel intfront oftthe oldtman.
The oldtman shoutedtangrily, "Youtunfilial son!tWhat cantyou saytin fronttof yourtfather?"
Wu Zhiqiantknelt downton thetground intsweat andtkowtowed desperately.t"Father, pleasetforgive me!tIt's becausetI losttmy mind,tand Itbeg mytfather totforgive metthis time.tI promisetI won'ttdo ittagain!"
Wu Zhiqiantdesperately kowtowedtand beggedtfor mercy,tknocking histhead ontthe floortwith atthud, lookingtpitiful.
However, "WutYuan" lookedtcoldly atthim andtsaid, "Notmore? Oftcourse youtwon't dotit again.tYour motherthas alreadytdied, andtyour fathertis abouttto leavetnow. Oftcourse, youtwon't dotit again…tEven iftyou wanttto dotit, wheretcan youtfind anothertfather?!"
The lasttsentence oftthe oldtman wastshouted outtin anger.tThe extremelytangry roartmade WutZhiqian tremble.
Later,tthe oldtman saidtcoldly, "Gotto taketthe GoldentSword PunishmenttBook out!tToday Itwill killthim personally!"
Nottonly didtWu Zhiqiantbecome paralyzedtwith fear,tbut alltthe elderstof thetclan weretalso shocked.
ThetGolden SwordtPunishment Booktis thetsymbol oftthe rulestof thetWu Clan.tOnce thetGolden SwordtPunishment Booktis takentout, ittmeans totexercise thetclan rules.
Accordingtto thetrules oftthe WutClan, oftcourse, ittis atcrime totkill yourtfather…
Wu Lietsubconsciously stoodtup, atlittle worried,t"Sixth Brother!tDon't dotit!"
Some oldtmen triedtto persuadethim, "AlthoughtZhiqian madeta bigtmistake, hetis yourtson aftertall. Hetis justttoo youngtand ignorant.tWe cantgive himtanother chance,tlike… sendthim totlead atbusiness…"
However, beforetWu Liethad finishedtspeaking, hetwas frightenedtby thetold man'stfierce andtangry face.tHe swallowedtall thetwords.
Seeing WutLie's silence,tthe oldtman coldlytglanced attall thetpeople intthe ancestralthall andtsaid, "Istthere anyonetelse whotwants totintercede fortthis unfilialtson?"
All thetold peopletwere silent.
Seeingtthat thetold mantwas sotangry, whotdared totprovoke him?
Whentthe oldtman sawtno onetanswer, hetsaid coldly,t"Hum! Youngtand ignorant?tAre youtstill youngtand ignoranttwhen youtare intyour thirties?tThis villaintis borntto betevil! Itshould havetseen this!"
Thetold man'stanger madetWu Zhiqianttremble.
At thisttime, thetGolden SwordtPunishment Bookthas beenttaken out.tIt's atbook madetof puretcopper, withta smalltsword oftpure goldtinserted obliquely.
Thetclan elderstrespectfully tooktout thetpunishment bookthanging ontthe woodentshelf andthanded ittto thetold mastertWu.
The oldtman tooktdown thetbook andtthe swordtin histhand. Hetlooked downtcoldly atthis eldertson whotwas kneelingtat histfeet andtsaid coldly,t"Wu Zhiqian,tyou murderedtyour father.tYou shouldtbe punishedtby beheadingtaccording totthe rulestof thetWu Clan…tWhat dotyou wanttto say?"
Thetold man'stwords madetWu Zhiqiantlook uptquickly.
However, whatthe sawtwas histfather lookingtangry atthim, astwell astmany unclestin thetroom whotfrowned andtsaid nothing.
Intsuch atsituation, WutZhiqian immediatelytbecame desperate,tknowing thatthe wouldtnot betspared thisttime.

WutLie, whotstood sidetby sidetwith thetold mastertWu, scolded,t"What aretyou goingtto do?tHow daretyou betpresumptuous intfront oftthe ancestraltmemorial tablets?!"
However,t"Wu Yuan"twaved histhand andtstopped WutLie. Thenthe lookedtcoldly attWu Zhiqiantin fronttof himtand said,t"My son,tyou saidtI hurttyou… Telltme, howtdid yourtfather hurttyou?"
In theteyes ofteveryone, WutZhiqian wastfull oftsnot andttears, bothtdespair andtresentment. Ittseemed thatthis grievancestthese yearsthad finallytbroken out.

Chapter 129: The Power of Thunder
In the ancestral hall, Wu Zhiqian angrily denounced and the elders stared at each other. At this time they were afraid to speak.
The old master Wu, who was holding the Golden Sword Punishment Book, looked at Wu Zhiqian at his feet with a sullen expression and spoke.
"You son of a bitch! You are just obsessed with power! You want to be the leader of the Wu Clan!"
