If Chu Yuan were the emperor of the Chu family, then the Grand Old Lady would be considered the empress dowager.
An emperor who was not recognized by the empress dowager naturally lacked legitimacy.
In other words, this declaration of The Grand Old Lady directly vetoed the legitimacy of Chu Yuan to take charge of the Chu family.
If any overseas Chu family members continued to follow Chu Yuan, then these so-called Chu family members would lose the orthodox inheritance.
At least, the ancestral home of the Chu family would no longer recognize these people as descendants of the Chu family.
When Chu Yuan received that news, his usually calm countenance turned furious.
As immense rage fueled his entire being, he hit the long table in front of him with his palm.
The table was shattered instantly from the impact.
“That old woman is really vicious! This will destroy my foundation!”
Chu Yuan was furious beyond measure.
Grand Old Lady Chu was the oldest living member of the Chu family and also the most senior member of Chu Sect.
Many decades ago, before Chu Yuan became the leader of the Chu family, The Grand Old Lady was in charge.
Within the family, she was well-respected, and her word was the law.
Even though she was a woman, the Three Families of the Chu Sect respected her leadership.
The power and dominance of The Grand Old Lady were unparalleled.
Even the powerful, wealthy, and honored patriarch of the Tang family himself would greet The Grand Old Lady respectfully whenever they met.
It could be said that during that period, the prestige of Grand Old Lady Chu in Chu Sect was unmatched.
After some time, The Grand Old Lady decided to give up her position of power and isolated herself in the Chu family's old house, ignoring family affairs for many years.
As time passed, the Three Families of the Chu Sect forgot the old lady's powerful influence.
After learning that The Grand Old Lady would never leave the family house, Chu Yuan's respect for The Grand Old Lady was only superficial. There was no fear for her in his heart.
This time, Chu Yuan had openly disobeyed the elder by forcing her most beloved descendants to death.
Chu Yuan had felt that even if it angered The Grand Old Lady after she found out about it, there was nothing that she could do to him.
After all, as long as he did not go back to the family house to look for trouble, there was nothing she could do.
However, never in Chu Yuan's wildest imaginations did he think that she would go this far.
She had straightaway expelled him from the Chu family.
It was as if the empress dowager had personally issued the edict to dethrone the current emperor.
Eventhough it was just in name, the truth was that in life, everything depended on reputation.
Chu Yuan did not need to ponder over it anymore. After today, presumably the whole martial arts world would feel that he was notorious and no longer represented the orthodox Chu family.
“That d*mn old hag has really pissed me off. She will be the death of me!”
Chu Yuan was hopping mad.
After dealing with Chu Tianfan, unexpectedly, The Grand Old Lady dealt him a blow.
“Chu Yuan, what is our next step?”
“Everyone is talking about us now.”
“Even the Tang family and the Jones family are looking down on us.”
“There are even rumors that the Chu family on Mount Chumen are imposters and not really Yunyang's descendants.”
“The direct descendants of Chu Yunyang, who is the ancestor of the Chu family, are in China, Jiangdong, and Fenghai...”
“The legitimacy of our Chu family on Mount Chumen has been seriously questioned.”
