Chapter 667 Electing a New Patriarch

• Once the memorial for the old patriarch ended, Peng Yilin eagerly called for the election of a new one. Just when everyone thought he’d crown himself, he threw out a name no one saw coming—Jiang Ying!
• Sure, she was the old patriarch’s adoptive daughter. Under the inheritance rules, she did have a shot at the position. But above her stood the old patriarch’s biological daughter, Jiang Huang. By age and rank, she should be the next patriarch.
• “Jiang Ying is the most well-read and broad-minded among us. Only someone like that can lead the Xing clan to a stronger future,” Peng Yilin declared, firm as a rock.
