Chapter 399: Confession

"It's such a coincidence that I met you two here. I wonder why you two came to Yong'an City?"

The middle-aged man asked first.

But after asking, the lively atmosphere quickly fell silent.

The middle-aged man was also stunned when he saw this.

What else could be going on in the Chen family's side hall at this time?

The three of them each looked around, and after confirming that there was no one else outside the side hall, they asked in a low voice:

"Could it be that the Chen family also sent people to your clan?"

"Hey, I've been there before. At that time, the clan members were ignorant and blocked the Chen family from the door."

"Harm, who can say it's not the case? I happened to be away from the family at that time."

The words of the two men also gave the middle-aged man some assurance. It seemed that these two families, like his Tao family, had accidentally offended the Chen family.

Originally, the Tao family didn't take it seriously, but after hearing about the Yu family's tragic situation two days ago, they quickly found out the cause.

After learning that the incident was caused by the Chen family, the family was extremely panicked. After all, the family was similar to the Yu family, and the family was not too far from Yong'an City where the Chen family was located. If the Chen family's chickens were lost again, the Tao family would , how should the family respond?

In order to resolve the impact of this incident, the patriarch held a family meeting on the spot.

After some negotiations, he, Tao Lezhi, rushed to Yong'an City with his family's few remaining ferocious beast resources, hoping that the two clans could turn their hostility into friendship.

However, the family cannot be entirely blamed for what happened last time. After all, although the family does not have a totem, it does not have many ferocious beast resources. In addition, the Chen family usually keeps a low profile. Thinking that there is no problem in refusing, they stopped the Chen family. outside the door.

But who would have thought that if the Chen family just kept quiet and became a blockbuster, the family really couldn't afford to offend.

At this moment, the three of them were in the same situation, and a hint of sympathy could not help but appear in their eyes.

However, considering that this was the Chen family's side hall, the three of them did not dare to make sworn vows on the spot.

As for the delay in the arrival of anyone from the Chen family, the three of them did not dare to ask any more questions and could only wait quietly.

After waiting for a while, a voice of apology soon came into the side hall:

"I'm busy with family affairs and I'm really sorry to keep you three waiting for so long."

Although he said he was sorry, Chen Tianjing looked calm and without any apology on his face, he just walked slowly into the side hall.

But when the three of them saw this, they didn't dare to show any other expressions, and hurriedly lowered their heads and replied:

"I've met Patriarch Chen."

"It's disrespectful for me to come and disturb you rashly. I hope Patriarch Chen won't take it to heart."

"Indeed, it is an honor for us that Patriarch Chen can take time out of his busy schedule to meet."

Chen Yihu, who followed him into the side hall, was stunned after hearing this.

It seems that he still has a lot to learn. He has been busy with family affairs recently, so he has been a little slack in this area.

Chen Tianjing's expression remained normal, he just walked to the main seat calmly, and then asked doubtfully:

"Speaking of which, I don't know what the important thing is for the three of you to come to our clan?"

Hearing this, the three of them looked stunned. When the three of them came over, didn't you, Patriarch Chen, know better than they did?

Although they complained in their hearts, the three of them did not dare to speak out.

The Tao clan elder took the lead and said:

"Clan Chief Chen, last time the nobles sent people to our clan to exchange for ferocious beast resources, but at that time the clansmen were blind and did not recognize the nobles, so they rejected the nobles. In order to express our clan's apology, our clan brought them this time. Patriarch Chen must accept the remaining ferocious beast resources in the clan."

"Clan Chief Chen, the old man's coming this time is exactly what the Tao clan elder said."

"..."

After the three of them finished speaking, Chen Tianjing showed a faint smile:

"I thought it was such a big deal, but it turns out it's just a trivial matter. My Chen family doesn't take it to heart. You three don't need to be so polite."

The expressions of the three people who heard this changed slightly.

If the Chen family doesn't accept it, doesn't it mean that the Chen family doesn't intend to make peace with the family, and maybe they will go to the family to look for the lost spirit-tailed chicken in two days?

This is not fun to find!

The elder of the Yu family who is in the late Xiantian realm has not yet gone to the ground.

Thinking of this, the three people hurriedly began to persuade.

Under the fierce words of the three people, Chen Tianjing no longer hesitated:

"Since the three of you are so sincere, and our clan does need these things, then accept them."

"Yihu, take some tribesmen outside to take stock."

"Yes, patriarch."

Seeing that Chen Tianjing no longer refused, the three dry-mouthed people were relieved. Since the Chen family was willing to accept it, it meant that the matter had been revealed. After coming to the Chen family, they would not cause trouble to the family.

It's just a pity that these ferocious beast resources are cultivated by the family with great difficulty.

But at this moment, few people had no time to regret. Who made the family weaker than others? If the family was strong, there would be no need to be so humble.

"Clan leader, the inventory has been completed."

Not long after, Chen Yihu entered the palace to report.

Chen Tianjing nodded slightly:

"Okay, let's give them the blood rice as the family agreed before."

"Yes, patriarch."

On the side, the three of them were slightly stunned.

This time, the family asked them to bring ferocious beast resources to ease the relationship between the two clans. They did not dare to think too much about the blood rice mentioned by the Chen family clan members before.

Unexpectedly, the Chen family was not prepared to use their resources for nothing, but to exchange blood and rice.

This Patriarch Chen is still a loyal person!

The three of them were all overjoyed, but they still refused:

"Why is Chief Chen saying this? Our clan is not here for blood rice this time."

"Clan Chief Chen must not do this, otherwise he will definitely scold me after I return to the clan."

Looking at the three people's insincere expressions, Chen Tianjing was speechless, but he still said:

"Okay, my Chen family is not an unreasonable family. Since the nobles are willing to exchange for ferocious beast resources, my clan will not let you suffer. Just accept what is given to you."

After these words came out, several people stopped talking and hurriedly thanked him.

The main reason was that they were worried that if they continued to talk, what would happen if Chief Chen really didn't give it to them? Then they would have no place to cry.

After the deal was settled, the three people complimented him again.

And as Chen Tianjing tasted the tea on the side, the three people were also very tactful and said goodbye one after another.

"It's getting late today, and the clan still has things to do, so I won't stay any longer. But if the nobles need anything in the future, please send a message to our clan, and our clan will definitely do its best."

"Me too!"

Under the leadership of the clan members, the three of them took the blood rice they exchanged and left Yong'an City together.

Outside the city, the people of the three clans walked together.

But at this moment, the faces of the three people in the team were no longer humble as they were in the hall.

As family elders, the three of them are all innate warriors. What they just showed was just another side of the three of them.

"Elder Tao, I wonder what the nobles think about today's events?"
