The future Family Head was assassinated, which was an utter disgrace for them!
At this mont, in the spacious conference hall of the Biel Family, dozens of important mbers of the Biel Family were all present.
Sitting at the top was the current Clan Leader of the Biel Family, Biel Cass, the biological father of Biel Kidd.
At this ti, Biel Cass was deeply pained; he considered Kidd his most outstanding son, and he was almost ready to hand over the entire Biel Family to him to manage, trusting Kidd's capabilities. However, now Kidd was dead!
Cass looked at the people below, and every face was filled with worry.
But Cass knew in his heart that his eldest son was dead, and he had no other sons, so it was unlikely for their line to keep the Family Head position.
This was sothing he absolutely could not accept; he couldn't bear this result.
He could even imagine that his son was probably killed casually by Xu Hao, who might not even have deliberately cared about Kidd's existence. After all, with Xu Hao's strength so formidable, Kidd's level of ability was rely a sideshow.
However, whether he accepted it or not, he had to!
This had already beco an unchangeable fact!
Cass looked coldly at the people below and said, "Xu Hao killed our clansman. Everyone, tell , what should we do?"
No one responded.
This was not sothing easy to talk about; saying the wrong thing could easily offend Cass.
Although Cass had no male heirs, only a daughter, in the history of the Biel Family, there was no precedent of a woman serving as Family Head, so he knew that now, within the Biel Family, his words would not carry the sa weight as before.
The family had to choose the next future head, and he probably had to relinquish his position within ten years.
Then, sothing that surprised everyone occurred. Cass's daughter, Biel Annie, suddenly stood up and said, "Father, I think I am capable of being our family's head!"
All eyes turned to Annie; was the woman out of her mind?
Currently, at the Biel Family, not many were thinking about avenging Kidd; instead, more were contemplating how to seize the position of Family Head.
Because as long as they could make themselves or their sons or nephews the future Family Head, they'd benefit imnsely, so almost everyone was doing everything possible to strive for it.
Kidd's sister, Biel Annie, fully understood that the Family Head position must not fall into others' hands. Otherwise, due to the many enemies her father had made while in power, if he lost favor, then she and her family would certainly suffer major repercussions, possibly even being expelled from the family.
After all, for the growth of the Biel Family, her father had made nurous sacrifices.
Even now, her own brother had been sacrificed.
But many couldn't see her father's sacrifices for the family, so she had to stand up at this critical mont.
Cass was stunned to hear Annie's words.
Even he hadn't expected his daughter to say such a thing. The family elders must be furious upon hearing her words.
He looked towards those family elders and saw that it was indeed the case; nearly every elder looked unnatural, their gazes toward Annie turning harsh.
At this point, another young man stood up, coldly saying, "Annie, aren't your words a bit excessive? Where do you place our family's honor? If you beco the Family Head, then outsiders will inevitably say our family has no n! If that happens, we might as well have no head at all!"
This young man was Annie's cousin, the son of her second uncle, Harding.
Hearing Harding's words, many expressed agreent. If a woman were strong enough to hold the position, it would be fine, but nobody wanted others to point fingers.
But Annie imdiately said, "If anyone dares to say such things, I'll make them shut up instantly, so they'll never talk again!"
"Ignorant! Our Biel Family may be strong, but it's not invincible. There are other powerful family forces in Canada. How dare you say such things?" Harding imdiately retorted.
"Hmph! A woman is indeed a woman, with long hair but short vision. Such arrogant words are only spoken by ignorant people from Fusang Country, yet you said them. With this attitude, you think you can be Family Head? I don't believe it!"
"The position of Family Head must definitely not go to Annie!"
Instantly, voices of opposition erupted, all believing Annie was too arrogant, without sense, and completely unfit for the role!
