Chapter 2159 Life is like a play, all depends on acting skills
While he was talking, Mr. Ji, Third Young Master, came out from behind, strode like lightning, and said: "Elder Yuan Chi, this matter is indeed a tragedy for my family. However, the family has its own rules, and those who have merit will be rewarded, and those who have made mistakes will be punished.
You risked your life to kill the enemy and escorted the head of the family back. This is a great achievement. If you don't reward me, the family rules won't allow it."
"Yes, yes, Elder Yuan Chi, please don't refuse."
"What the young patriarch said makes sense. The clan rules are like this. If you refuse, it will appear to be disrespectful to the clan rules."
Everyone knows that Third Young Master Ji admires Elder Yuan Chi very much. Maybe Elder Yuan Chi will become a popular person around Third Young Master Ji in the future. It is always good to curry favor with him.
There is no cost to say good things like this for free, and everyone is not stingy. They all expressed their support for the elder Yuan Chi.
Elder Yuan Chi still wanted to refuse, but saw Third Young Master Ji's expression stern: "If Elder Yuan Chi refuses to give in, then Ji will have to give up the position of the clan leader."
Everyone knew that these were the angry words of Mr. Ji, and they kept trying to persuade him.
Elder Yuan Chi then said respectfully: "Since the young patriarch values so much, but Yuan Chi is disrespectful, he can only accept it shamelessly."
Third Young Master Ji turned his anger into joy and said, "This is just nonsense! Now that the old patriarch cannot afford to fall ill, the burden of the family is on my head, and I am not even mentally prepared. To tell you the truth, I am not afraid of everyone laughing.
I feel unsure. Therefore, I would like to ask for your support and advice on important family matters in the future."
"Young patriarch is so humble."
"Yes, the experience and age of the old patriarch are indeed more advantageous, but the young patriarch is no less talented than his elders. Who doesn't know that the young patriarch has a close relationship with Young Master Jiang Chen, and even more so that Young Master Jiang Chen gave him two heavenly treasures?
This piece can be said to be the most favored among all the forces in Liuli King City. With the support of Young Master Jiang Chen, and the young and promising young clan leader, our Panlong lineage will surely prosper, right?"
"That's right, the Panlong lineage led by the young patriarch will definitely have a new look."
Once the emperor, there was the courtier. Now Emperor Panlong is unconscious. The new clan leader has taken over.
Perhaps, some respected elders present were not convinced by Third Young Master Ji, and felt that he was still young and not qualified enough to serve as the clan leader.
However, everyone knows that if they don't accept it, they really can't usurp power.
As long as the old patriarch Panlong is away, the position of the clan leader belongs to Third Young Master Ji. There is absolutely no possibility of someone else taking his place.
Not to mention anything else, who can compare to Young Master Jiang Chen as his sworn brother?
Who dares to care about this position?
Since I can't care about it, and I can't object to it, the smartest choice is to support Third Young Master Ji and let him solidify his position as clan leader.
What they can do is to get closer to Third Young Master Ji and try not to fall out of favor. Everyone can see the direction clearly. There may be many benefits in following Third Young Master Ji in the future.
Third Young Master Ji is so popular in front of Young Master Jiang Chen, and the treasures he gives out are always two-piece sets. Will there be less benefits in the future?
To put it bluntly, Third Young Master Ji may be more suitable to be the clan leader than the old clan leader.
After all, although Young Master Ji is young, he already surpasses the elder clan leader in terms of cultivation. In terms of connections, he has unique advantages.
If he doesn’t serve as the patriarch, who should?
During this period of time, Third Young Master Ji has obviously become familiar with this identity. Hearing the flattering words in his ears, it didn't stir up much excitement in his heart.
However, he still had a helpful smile on his face, and he seemed to like the feeling of being praised.
Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills.
The Third Young Master Ji naturally remembered Jiang Chen's instructions, so he didn't want to scare off the enemy at all. Therefore, he could only rely on his acting skills.
Third Young Master Ji gently knocked on the armrest of the chair and said: "Everyone says "Young Master Jiang Chen" to the left and "Young Master Jiang Chen" to the right. To be honest, the most successful thing I, Third Young Master Ji, have done in my life is to make friends with people like this.
A brother. Now, when a brother encounters trouble, can I, a brother, stand by and watch? Let everyone talk about it."
"No, of course not! The young patriarch should worry more about Young Master Jiang Chen. Only in this way can we reflect the importance of our Panlong lineage. Only in the future will our strategic position in Liuli King City continue to improve."
"Yes, Young Patriarch, it would be great if I could share Young Master Jiang's worries."
Third Young Master Ji nodded: "I also know that sharing his worries is the best thing. But do you have any good ideas on how to share his worries? Nowadays, the human territory is not peaceful, there are riots everywhere, and there are attacks from time to time. Let's Panlong Yi
Pui’s combat effectiveness is pretty good, but when it comes to going out to quell rebellions and riots, it seems a bit inadequate. The old patriarch was attacked when he went out."
All the elders fell silent.
When it comes to suppressing riots everywhere, they are absolutely unwilling to take on this kind of job. The risk is too great, and it is not something they can handle with their strength.
An elder suddenly said: "Young Patriarch, I heard that Young Master Jiang Chen is currently repairing the Great Soul Locking Formation of All Heavens and All Souls. Perhaps, we can provide some spirit stones."
"Well, it would be good if we could help in this regard. Suppressing riots is a thankless task. If the suppression is successful, it may not be a big achievement. If it fails, it will appear that we have failed to achieve enough and failed more than we have done, and are suspected of being a hindrance.
.”
"Yes, we can still make a fuss about this formation."
Third Young Master Ji was thoughtful, frowning and saying nothing.
Suddenly, the elder Yuan Chi smiled slightly: "Young Clan Chief, my subordinates are quite accomplished in formations. If possible, I would like to escort a batch of spirit stones and several subordinates in formations to listen to Young Master Jiang Chen.
If the master calls for it, maybe he can do something for him."
Third Young Master Ji's eyes lit up: "Is Elder Yuan Chi actually a formation master?"
"Master, I can't talk about it. I still have some experience in the formation." Elder Yuan Chi said with a slight smile.
Third Young Master Ji did not speak in a hurry, but thought about it for a moment and asked, "What do you elders think?"
"Elder Yuan Chi does have some attainments in formations. This may be an opportunity for our Panlong lineage to work hard in front of Young Master Jiang Chen!"
"Exactly, Elder Yuan Chi's intervention is an opportunity to strengthen our Panlong lineage."
"Young patriarch, my subordinates are also willing to go together. Even if they can't help with the formation, they can help guard the perimeter to prevent external evil spirits from causing trouble. That's still a small amount of help!"
"Yes, that's exactly what it should be."
Third Young Master Ji was overjoyed: "It seems that our Panlong lineage can be used by people's hearts. Well, I, Ji Laosan, and the Panlong lineage all owe Young Master Jiang Chen a lot of favors, and we should express our gratitude. Elder Yuan Chi,
You bring a group of people and escort a group of spirit stones to listen to Young Master Jiang Chen's orders."
"Elder He Gang, take a group of troops to guard the perimeter and look after the door for Young Master Jiang Chen."
