Chapter 38 Ye Chen's Strength
Ah Li jumped up from Ye Chen's arms and stood on Ye Chen's shoulders. When she saw Ye Yu smiling sweetly, she pursed her lips in depression.
Ye Chen and Ye Gong walked towards the family hall while chatting.
"Brother Ye Chen, the day after tomorrow is the Lianyun Eighteen Fort Martial Arts Tournament, do you want to go?" Ye Gong raised his head and glanced at Ye Chen, his eyes filled with worry.
"Yeah." Ye Chen nodded and said, counting the time, only to find out that the day after tomorrow is the Lianyun 18th Castle Tournament.
"Brother Ye Chen, can you not go?" Ye Gong lowered his head.
"I must go." Ye Chen said firmly, with a hearty smile, he patted Ye Gong's head, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
"If brother Ye Chen is going, can you take me with you, I'm already in the middle of the seventh step, and I won't hold you back." Ye Gong looked at Ye Chen expectantly.
"Then you have to ask my father." Ye Chen said, he definitely can't take Daier with him to Yunjiabao, but he just looked at Daier's eyes, and he couldn't bear to refuse, so he could only shirk it on his father, because he knew, Father will definitely not let my son go.
"Brother Yechen is the patriarch now, as long as brother Yechen agrees, I can go, right?" Ye Gong suddenly thought of something and said.
Patriarch? Only then did Ye Chen realize that he had forgotten about this. A few days ago, his father had announced within the clan that Ye Chen was already the new patriarch, but Ye Chen hadn't adapted to this change in status.
Ye Chen smiled wryly, and said: "Although I am the patriarch now, it's better to ask my father for this kind of thing."
"Oh." Ye Yan's eyes were sad, she knew that Uncle Zhan Tian would never let her go.
While talking, Ye Chen and Ye Yu walked through the square in front of the family hall together.
"Patriarch."
"Patriarch." After seeing Ye Chen, all the clansmen stood on both sides respectfully and respectfully.
Hearing all the clansmen shouting that suddenly, Ye Chen felt uncomfortable all over. He smiled wryly and looked at Nai'er beside him, only to see Nai'er pursing his lips and snickering, with dimples showing at the corners of his mouth, so tender that water can be squeezed out .
Ye Chen still felt the respect of all the clansmen for him, and he felt a sense of responsibility in his heart.
"Patriarch." Ye Meng, who was practicing at the side, also stopped and said respectfully.
"Ye Meng, call me Brother Ye Chen from now on." Ye Chen looked at Ye Meng and said.
"No, this is what the elders told you. This is a family rule and cannot be changed." Ye Meng said seriously with a childish little face.
Hearing Ye Meng's answer, Ye Chen was also helpless.
In the eyes of the clansmen, the patriarch is a very sacred existence, leading them to survive tenaciously in this world and let the clan continue. The patriarch is like a father, regardless of age!
His father and uncle had entrusted him with the position of patriarch so early, which meant that he had to practice a lot.
The three of them entered the family hall together. There were already sixty or seventy people in the family hall. His father and uncle were sitting at the top of the hall. Ye Chen's spirit instantly sensed the changes in the strength of everyone in the hall. It is only one line away from the middle of the ninth rank. The second uncle Ye Zhanlong who has been staying in the middle of the eighth rank has also entered the peak of the eighth rank. An eighth step!
In addition to the ninth and eighth ranks, there are seventeen people in the seventh rank, and thirty-one people in the sixth rank.
Ye Chen's two elder brothers, Ye Peng and Ye Mu, have both been promoted to the middle stage of the sixth rank, which makes Ye Chen feel relieved.
Since getting the Thunder Emperor Art, Ye Jiabao's strength has more than doubled!
Ye Chen was very surprised. He, who was at the top of the seventh step, was able to see the strength of everyone in the hall in such a short period of time.
"Chen'er, you're here." Ye Zhantian checked the strength of the clansmen one by one,
His face was filled with joy. In just a few days, the strength of Yejiabao had risen so fast, which made him quite excited.
"Father, uncle, second uncle..." Ye Chen greeted the elders respectfully.
"Patriarch." The clansmen on both sides of the hall said in unison and stood in silence.
Hearing this address, Ye Chen couldn't help but smile wryly.
"Haha, Chen'er may not be used to it." Seeing Ye Chen's expression, Ye Zhantian laughed loudly, thought for a while, and said solemnly, "In troubled times, survival is not easy. Since you are already The patriarch of the Ye Family Fort should seek the well-being of the people and the survival of the clan, so remember not to slack off."
Ye Chen looked around and saw the eager and hopeful eyes of the clansmen, an unspeakable emotion suddenly surged in his heart, and said seriously: "My child understands!"
Ye Cangxuan smiled and waved his hands, signaling Ye Zhantian to stop admonishing Ye Chen: "Okay, let's not mention these heavy topics, just now your father and I tested the strength of your uncles and brothers ,Now it is your turn."
Ye Zhantian's face softened a little, and he said kindly: "Chen'er must have been promoted to the sixth rank, have you reached the middle of the sixth rank?"
Should I tell my father that I have reached the peak of the seventh step? If he said it, the elders would probably be startled, but Ye Chen was still hesitating whether to say it or not, so he responded casually.
"Many of your brothers, Ye Meng, Ye Ming, etc., have entered the sixth level, and even your eldest brother and second brother have reached the sixth level." Ye Zhantian said with a smile. Ye Chen's two elder brothers, Ye Peng and Ye Mu's talent is not very outstanding, and he failed to enter the sixth level before the age of eighteen, but after practicing the Thunder Emperor Art, his profound energy has made progress again, which made him very happy.
"Congratulations, big brother and second brother." Ye Chen looked at Ye Peng and Ye Mu beside him, and smiled.
Both Ye Peng and Ye Mu glanced at Ye Chen gratefully. Without Ye Chen, their profound energy would not have made such great progress.
"It's up to you next." Ye Zhantian looked at Ye Chen.
"Brother, let me take the exam, Chen'er." Ye Zhanxiong smiled from the side.
"Yeah." Ye Zhantian nodded and looked at Ye Chen, "Now your third uncle will test you!"
Ye Zhanxiong walked to the middle of the hall, and the rest of the people stood on both sides of the hall at a distance. Their eyes all fell on Ye Chen alone. They didn't know how Ye Chen's strength was, and everyone was concerned. expect. Ye Chen is already the patriarch of the family. If Ye Zhantian abdicates, then Ye Chen will lead the Ye family. They still want to know whether Ye Chen has enough strength and talent to be qualified for the position of patriarch!
Under the watchful eyes of all the uncles and brothers in the family, Ye Chen also felt a lot of pressure, and he deeply felt the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
Ye Zhanxiong exuded a majestic aura, like Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi. Standing in the center of the hall, his whole body was covered with a layer of faint stellar energy. After the eighth level, the quality of profound energy was greatly improved. Gang Qi kept circulating around his body, he raised his head and looked at Ye Chen: "Chen'er, come on, slap as much as you can, and let the elders see how far your profound energy has reached. "A powerful coercion pressed forward.
The powerful power of the mid-eighth-rank master made all the younger generations of the family retreat a little further.
Ye Zhantian and Ye Cangxuan stared at Ye Chen intently, seeing that Ye Chen was still calm and composed under such arrogance, they all smiled heartily.
"Chen'er's strength should be able to compete with the peak of the sixth order." Ye Cangxuan stroked the white beard on his chin and smiled.
"Brother has always been worried about Chen'er's cultivation. With Chen'er's talent and intelligence, the progress of cultivation will definitely not be worse than that of other families' children." Ye Zhanlong looked at Ye Zhantian.
Ye Zhantian looked very satisfied, with a smile on his lips.
Ye Chen circulated the profound energy in his body, counteracting the third uncle's profound energy pressure, and slowly condensed the profound energy into his right palm.
Suddenly, Ye Chen exuded a unique mysterious smell all over his body, as if he had merged with everything around him, and the profound energy in everyone around him was being drawn by some kind of unique air mechanism.
"Huh." Ye Cangxuan said in surprise, and looked at Ye Zhantian, and both saw the look of horror in the other's eyes.
The masters of the eighth and ninth ranks, all of their qi are actually drawn. The profound energy Chen'er cultivated is really weird. They can feel that the mysterious energy in Ye Chen's body is very strong, and it may not exceed the sixth rank!
