Chapter 2007

The Fourth Elder, Chen Qinghe, had a happy face. He had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Once upon a time, because of his blunt qualifications, he was neglected in the clan, and even his cousin, whom he was thinking of, looked down on him.

The turning point of fate was when the Mu Clan approached him and promised to give him enough training resources on the condition that he would become a traitor they arranged in the Chen Clan.

At that time, he realized that his chance had come. With his own talent, he would never be able to have a place in the clan, but with the help of the herdsmen, he had the possibility to soar into the sky!

For the sake of power and status, he agreed almost without hesitation, and has been loyal to the shepherds all these years.

And the perennial loyalty has finally been rewarded generously. After the death of the patriarch, after the Mu clan decided to support the Chen clan, he naturally became the best candidate for the new patriarch!

Only he can ensure the loyalty of the Chen Clan to the Mu Clan, and only he can lead the Chen Clan out of the predicament and towards a new glory!

"Elders, the dead are gone, it's time for our Chen Clan to step into a new era!"

"To be honest, the reason why the herdsmen are willing to rescue my Chen clan this time is because I foresaw the development of the situation in advance and asked the herdsmen for help in time."

Facing the elders, Chen Qinghe spoke with eloquence and confidence, completely forgetting the fact that he was a traitor, and credited himself with the fact that the Chen family was able to avoid the catastrophe!

When the elders heard the silence, they all glanced at the Holy King Litian, and found that he did not refute what the fourth elder said, but just quietly found a seat and sat down, pretending not to interfere with the internal affairs of the Chen clan.

However, even though he didn't say anything, it brought a lot of pressure on people invisibly. What he meant, the meaning of the herdsmen, was very clear!

The feeling of being coerced by others is not good. Seeing the four elders showing their sharpness, all the elders don't know what to do.

The Chen family has the pride of the Chen family. The reason why their ancestors disappeared back then had a lot to do with the herdsmen. From a rational point of view, they were unwilling and did not want to be affiliated with the herdsmen.

However, the development of the situation did not allow them to refuse, and did not even give them a chance to delay, the Holy King Litian directly put the knife on their necks!

The tug of emotion and reason led to the silence of many elders, and even the first elder's breathing became short of breath, and he hesitated to speak several times.

Although today's meeting was proposed by the Fourth Elder, he actually already had an idea about the candidate for the new patriarch.

The Chen family needs to move towards a new era. The fourth elder is right, but in his opinion, it is not the fourth elder who can lead the Chen family in the future, but...

The great elder glanced at Gu Chen who was beside him. The talent, courage and friendship shown by the other party during this period of time have already convinced him that he is the best candidate for the new patriarch.

Young people can represent the new era, not to mention such an outstanding young man!

It must be Chen Yunfei who can make the Chen clan rise, not a shameless traitor like Chen Qinghe!

The First Elder really wanted to refute the Fourth Elder, and suggested that the young man around him be the patriarch, but reason made him clenched his fists, and he was unable to speak for a long time!

If he said that, with his prestige among the elders, he would definitely get the greatest support, but if he did that, it would be tantamount to discrediting the Litian Saint King who was present, and the consequences would be disastrous!

What should I do?

The Great Elder had a mixed heart, but at this moment Gu Chen smiled and spoke calmly.

"The fourth elder is loyal to our clan, and the world can learn from it. I think that the position of patriarch should be inherited by the fourth elder, and he should not be the second choice!"

The first sentence sounded like sarcasm, which made Chen Qinghe's face darken, but the second sentence immediately after made him stunned.

Not only him, but even the elders present were stunned, and even the Holy King Litian who was sitting next to him showed surprise.

Although he didn't pay much attention to Chen Yunfei, he also knew from Chen Qinghe's report that the relationship between the two was not good.

Although Chen Qinghe's ambition to seize the position of patriarch was obvious, but before he had time to elaborate, Chen Yunfei was the first to agree with it, and even said that he would not be the second choice.

He said so, if the other elders dare to have ideas, they will offend Chen Qinghe to death, which is equivalent to blocking everyone's mouths!

"It turns out that they are just greedy for life and afraid of death, and they follow others."

There was sarcasm in Li Tian's eyes, and he said in his heart.

Previously, the cultivators from all sides in this manpower battle were somewhat bloody, but it turned out that it was unavoidable after all.

But it's also true, for such a small person, his shepherds are the sky that cannot be offended. If there is a chance to curry favor, what is the so-called integrity?

"Hahaha, Yunfei, you are wrong to say that. The position of patriarch should be elected by all the elders. This is only fair!"

Chen Qinghe came back to his senses and said hypocritically, but he couldn't hide the pride on his face.

This guy looked so cold before, but he didn't expect to please him so much now, the taste of power is so good!

"The fourth elder is right. I wonder if there are other suitable candidates for the elders?"

Gu Chenying followed Chen Qinghe, these words made the Great Elder who had intended to elect him as the patriarch feel stuck in his throat for a moment!

The disappointment he couldn't express in his heart, the young man he had placed high hopes on, was it like this?

"There is indeed no more suitable candidate than the Fourth Elder."

Gu Chen spoke first, and several elders who had seen the direction of the wind before had no psychological burden, and echoed their opening.

More elders looked at the Great Elder Chen Shanming, they respected the Great Elder, even if the Holy King was present, they still only followed him.

Chen Shanming knew that he had to make a choice, and Gu Chen's words just now rejected his other thoughts, and finally said with a sullen face: "This time, my Chen family was able to escape, and the Fourth Elder did have a great contribution. Let him take the lead." The new patriarch, the old man has no objection!"

With the prestige of the Great Elder, these words are equivalent to the final word. Seeing that his long-cherished wish has finally been fulfilled, Chen Qinghe is very happy, and he is really proud of his horseshoe.

Seeing that Chen Qinghe had successfully become the patriarch, Litian Shengwang got up and left the hall without saying hello.

He was not at all interested in the details of the next meeting of the Chen Clan. He stayed in Dingkong Mountain just to ensure that Chen Qinghe became the patriarch.

Now that the mission is completed, he should leave. Naturally, someone will come to tell Chen Qinghe how the Chen clan will be loyal to the herdsmen in the future.

"A mere Chen family has delayed me a lot of time."

The Holy King Litian snorted coldly, and left amidst the respectful salutes of the crowd.

Gu Chen was in the salute line, bowing his body, watching his leaving back, with a smile on his face all the time.
