Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss



The Eldest Elder deliberately glanced at Huo Yulin. "Master Jinfeng is not doing well and the family can't go a day without someone to hold the fort. After some discussion, the elders have decided to find a suitable heir from the younger generation through a test."

"I'll hand out the list of suitable candidates to you now. The rules of assessment can be found behind."

The Eldest Elder took out a stack of paper and passed a set to each person sitting across the table.

Huo Yulin gradually picked up the name list.

A total of five candidates were on it.

Other than Huo Wanying, the three other potential candidates were indirect blood relations who were a generation older than them.

"If you have no objections, this is settled. The first test will take place in a couple of days," said Eldest Elder.

Huo Yulin did not continue reading the rules of assessment behind the list. He let go of his hand, dropped the document on the table, and raised his head to look at the Eldest Elder. "I disagree."

The moment he finished his sentence, everyone turned to look at him.

The man had already expected Huo Yulin to react this way. He put on a look of astonishment. "Young Master Yulin, I don't understand. Why do you disagree?"

"Master Jinfeng is simply recuperating temporarily. What right do you have to bring up the subject of the heir?" Huo Yulin laughed coldly. "All of you are alive and well sitting here. Don't you know whom you have to thank for this?"

The Eldest Elder did not get annoyed at all. Instead, he said, "Young Master Yulin, we know exactly what you mean. If something happens to the family while Master Jinfeng is unwell, how can we answer him, right?"

"Moreover, we're just choosing an heir. Master Jinfeng is still the clan leader. This won't affect the clan at all."

"Eldest Elder is right. We have to protect the family for Master Jinfeng."

"It's imperative for us to choose an heir."

The people in the room chimed in and agreed one after another. Even though some of them had yet to choose a potential heir, everyone knew it was time to settle this.

Everyone probably heard that Master Jinfeng might never wake up.

Huo Yulin looked at the people expressionlessly. He knew that someone must have instigated them.

Huo Yulin placed his hands on the table and stood up. He leaned forward slightly and spoke calmly, "If you want to choose an heir, be my guest. When Master Jinfeng comes back, he'll choose one."

"Everyone knows the condition Master Jinfeng is in." The Eldest Elder raised his head, looked straight into Huo Yulin's eyes, and said, "Young Master Yulin, you can stop trying to stall for time. We have to choose an heir as soon as possible."

Huo Yulin's eyes looked cold.

Huo Wanying broke her silence and stood up looking imposing. "Sorry, I have to interrupt. I don't think this is right either."

The old man frowned upon hearing this. He did not expect Huo Wanying to say this. Heir selection would have served her well!

Didn't Huo Qing tell Huo Wanying about it ahead of time?

The Eldest Elder could not help glancing at Huo Qing.

Huo Qing was at a loss as well. He disregarded the looks Eldest Elder was casting towards him and said hurriedly, "Wanying, how could you say this?"

Huo Wanying turned to glance at Huo Qing and answered calmly. "I'm not saying no to selecting an heir. I'm just saying that this list isn't right."
