Chapter 175: Passing the Position to a Grandson

"How could I not know the hidden dangers of doing this?" the Ouyang Family said helplessly.

Qin Ming smiled and said, "Therefore, unless it is an absolute last resort, it is better not to do this."

"Actually, Ouyang Family Head, as long as you become a Martial Ancestor, you won't need to worry about the issue of succession, and you will be able to continue strengthening the Ouyang Family."

The Ouyang Family Head waved his hand and said, "It's difficult! A Martial Ancestor can indeed increase one's lifespan, but is the Martial Ancestor realm so easy to attain?"

"How many people are there in the entire Chenyang City, and how many Martial Ancestors are there? Given the conditions of our Ouyang Family, how could it possibly allow me to become that high and mighty Martial Ancestor Expert?"

A Martial Ancestor Expert can increase one's lifespan by a hundred years, which is something countless Martial Artists dream of, but becoming a Martial Ancestor requires not only Talent but also a massive amount of resources.

The small Ouyang Family is simply not enough to support him in reaching the Martial Ancestor realm.

Qin Ming smiled and said, "That is not necessarily true!"

Without waiting for them to retort, Qin Ming continued:

"There is another method, which is to pass the position to a grandson!"

"Pass the position to a grandson?" The Ouyang Family Head thought about it; this was indeed a solution, even if not an ideal one.

The position of Family Head is generally passed to a mature and steady person, but given the current situation of the Ouyang Family, there is no time to wait for the grandsons to mature.

Passing the position to a grandson is still better than passing it to a member of the Collateral Line.

"Moreover, Ouyang Family Head, you can let them compete. Whichever grandson shows promise, you can pass the position to him."

"In this way, won't those sons of yours desperately try to teach their own sons?"

Qin Ming added.

After pondering for a moment, the Ouyang Family Head nodded heavily and said, "This is indeed a good method!"

"Qin Ming, I really have to thank you properly," the Ouyang Family Head said, cupping his hands. "You have helped me a great deal."

Qin Ming waved his hand and said, "This is your Family business. I am already satisfied that you didn't mind me being meddlesome; there is no need to thank me."

"It is getting late, so I will not disturb the old man's rest." Qin Ming said, cupping his hands in a salute.

The Ouyang Family had just recovered from a serious illness, so it would be better for him to rest more.

"Xiaoxiao, why don't you see Qin Ming off for me?" the Ouyang Family said.

Under Ouyang Xiaoxiao's guidance, Qin Ming walked out of the bedroom.

"Qin Ming, I really have to thank you properly this time. You have solved a major problem for our Ouyang Family," Ouyang Xiaoxiao said gratefully.

Qin Ming scratched his head and said, "Actually, the Ouyang Family would surely have thought of this method eventually; he is just currently upset with his own sons."

"He just didn't want to think in that direction."

Putting himself in his shoes, if Qin Ming had encountered such a thing himself, he would probably have been even more unable to let it go; not dissolving the Family directly was already considered calm.

"Regardless, after your guidance, my father has much more energy," Ouyang Xiaoxiao said with a smile. She had been truly exhausted during this period.

Her father was on the verge of death, the Family was in internal turmoil, and Liu City was in chaos; these events had pressed down on her so hard she couldn't breathe.

Now that her father had awakened, Liu City would return to peace, and her brothers had absolutely no thoughts of vying for the position of Family Head anymore; they were probably thinking about how to save their own lives now!

For a moment, all the heavy burdens vanished, and she felt exceptionally relaxed.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Xiaoxiao said solemnly:

"Qin Ming, if it hadn't been for your master this time, our Ouyang Family would likely have been doomed. Thank you!"

"It was you who saved our entire Ouyang Family."

Although it was Qin Ming's master who saved her father, everyone knew that this was because of Qin Ming's Face.

If it weren't for Qin Ming, a Grand Alchemist would not have easily agreed to provide treatment.
