Chapter 3264 The Great Elder Is Interested!
"It doesn't matter whether anyone from their Nangong family came back alive, but this time our Chen family definitely stole the limelight in front of the nine great families. Hongyuan is a great contributor!" Seventh Master Chen Tianming said with a smile.
Chen Tianming is Chen Xinran's father. His daughter has been close to Chen Hongyuan since she was a child, like a brother and sister. Moreover, Chen Hongyuan has been very well-behaved and talented since she was a child. She is a very good child.
If it wasn't because he was the second son, the head of the Chen family would definitely be his.
Moreover, even in the current situation, he still thinks that Chen Hongyuan is the most suitable as the head of the Chen family.
Originally, Chen Hongyuan shined brilliantly in the Nine Clans Competition, allowing the other eight great families to see the strength of their Chen family. This can be regarded as winning honor for the Chen family, and it can be regarded as making some contributions to the Chen family.
It's just because he only got the fourth place in the end, so this honor and credit naturally became much lower.
If this is the case, it is actually very difficult for Chen Hongyuan to become the heir of the Chen family, and the chance is not great.
However, he never thought that Chen Hongyuan would choose this path and enter the realm of death alone.
Originally, he thought it was a pity. After all, Chen Hongyuan was still young, and there would still be other opportunities in the future. There was no need to be so extreme.
But he never expected that Chen Hongyuan would succeed.
Just the fact that a person came back alive from the dead zone is enough to make people dare not underestimate Chen Hongyuan's ability. If you want to come back alive in the dead zone, you need not only a little strength, but also more survivability.
In particular, they didn't have many people. I heard that Chen Hongyuan was only two partners, Dongfang Feibai of the Dongfang family. With just these two people, it was really too difficult to come back alive from the dead zone.
Although none of the members of the Chen family have entered the dead zone, they have more or less heard of the situation in the dead zone.
Therefore, it was really not easy for Chen Hongyuan to come back this time, and it was enough to prove his personal strength and ability.
Even if Chen Hongyuan came back, it was only for him to accumulate some prestige in the Chen family, and let the Chen family know that he, Chen Hongyuan, is very strong.
But what he didn't expect was that Chen Tianxing would hold such a grand celebration banquet this time, and now the entire Chen family is promoting Chen Hongyuan's heroic deeds.
Is he implying something?
He doesn't know, but Chen Hongyuan can achieve such an achievement now, at least as an uncle, he still needs to support him.
"That's right, this time Yuan'er has indeed made great contributions to the Chen family. It has been a long time since no one in our Chen family has been able to enter the dead zone. Although this time only got such a quota, Yuan'er did not live up to our expectations. The return of the dead zone is already a great success.
To a large extent, this trip to the dead zone has also greatly encouraged our Chen family children. Let them understand that as long as they work hard, nothing is impossible.
The three great families are so powerful, and each family has eighteen people, but so what? Only a few of them were able to come back, not even a single person like Nangong Shijia came back.
So compared to this, we only sent one person, but they were able to come back safely, which makes me really gratified! "Chen Tianxing obviously intended to promote Chen Hongyuan, but he did not hesitate to praise and satisfy Chen Hongyuan.
"Yes,
Hongyuan really did a great job this time! "
"I really didn't expect Mr. Hongyuan to be so powerful now. I believe he should be more diligent than in the Nine Clans Competition. Our Chen family really has a successor."
"Maybe after five hundred years, our Chen family may really be able to fight against the three great families!" Hearing what the head of the family said, some elders also began to praise Chen Hongyuan.
On the other hand, Chen Hongxing listened with a gloomy face. Obviously, everyone's praise made him feel worse.
If it really goes on like this, his position as the heir will not be guaranteed.
"The elders praised me, but I just had better luck." Chen Hongyuan was also a little surprised by what happened today, and he didn't expect that his father would suddenly raise his status.
This made him feel a little uneasy, because he was sure what his father's reason for doing it was.
Does this qualify him to compete for the position of Patriarch?
He's not sure!
"Very good, young people are not arrogant or impetuous, and they can be so calm after achieving such a proud achievement. The Chen family needs a young man like you!" Someone couldn't help but exclaimed again.
"We old fellows are getting old and have a limited future. From now on, the Chen family will rely on young people like you to lead them!" These elders praised each and every one of them, they are very familiar with the way, and they came here as soon as they opened their mouths, which made Chen Hongyuan feel a little embarrassed up.
Even though he knew that they were just flattering him now, he could only be respectful.
"You elders, praise!"
Of course, some people are happy, and naturally some people are dissatisfied. For example, the elder Chen Tianwei, the second master Chen Tianyun and the fifth master Chen Tianqing.
However, they also know that if they carry it at this time, they may become the target of public criticism, and they will be drowned by the saliva of these sycophants.
Of course, the Great Elder who got some news hesitated in his heart, he was weighing his pros and cons.
Chen Tianxing's behavior today is obviously a little abnormal. This is deliberately raising Chen Hongyuan and lowering Chen Hongxing.
If he picks on Chen Hongyuan at this time, it will inevitably make Chen Tianxing even more dissatisfied with himself.
Although he is the Great Elder of the Chen family, if he provokes public anger, everyone will have opinions on him, and even has the right to propose a replacement of the Great Elder.
Now most of them are flattering Chen Hongyuan. If he speaks at this time, he may not have too many people supporting him, but it will make people think he is narrow-minded.
Looking at Chen Hongxing on the opposite side, he found that his face was also extremely ugly. He smiled in his heart, thinking that it might not be a bad thing to elevate Chen Hongyuan's status now.
So he said with a smile: "Young Master Hongyuan has really won the glory for our Chen family these few times. The outstanding performance of the Nine Clan Grand Competition made the other eight great families see that our Chen family is not weaker than them.
And this trip to the death zone even compared the Nangong family who was number one in the Nine Clans Competition. This honor was even more dazzling than winning the first place in the Nine Clans Competition.
Although people from the Ji family and the Situ family also came back, after this incident, I don't think any of them would dare to look down on our Chen family anymore. "
Sure enough, the words of the Great Elder immediately aroused everyone's surprise.
After all, after working together for so long, don't you know what the Great Elder is like? When did he become so sensible!
