The [Chen Royal Family] is selecting the next heir to the throne, which is no longer a secret among the major families.
The [Chen Royal Family] is about to change its leader, which is a huge event for the entire [Shangjing].
This election for the throne is not only a heated event within the Chen family, but also attracts great attention from the outside world.
As the old head of the Ren family, Ren Changgeng has retired from behind the scenes and is enjoying his old age.
But he had to pay attention to such a big event.
However, the [Chen Royal Family] is very tight-lipped about the situation of this election for the throne, and the outside world cannot get any useful information at all.
However, a few days ago, Ah Xue suddenly found Ren Changgeng and talked to him about the [Chen Royal Family] election for the throne.
Among them, there is a lengthy description of how outstanding Chen Qi is as one of the candidates for the throne.
‘Axue is fully confident that Mr. Chen will win the election for the throne and become the next heir to the throne of the [Chen Royal Family]!’ These are Axue’s exact words.
Although Ren Changgeng and Ah Xue had a nominal master-disciple relationship, he never knew that Ah Xue had an extraordinary background and a terrifying background that made even the [Chen Royal Family] fear.
Moreover, A-Xue is very smart and has a unique vision.
To be able to receive such an evaluation from A Xue, Ren Changgeng should be convinced.
If we can establish a good relationship with Chen Qi in advance, wouldn't it be equivalent to establishing a friendship with the next top leader of the [Chen Royal Family]?
In this way, the Ren family can enjoy the shade under the big tree, at least they will no longer be targeted by the [Chen Royal Family].
Ren Changgeng came here today and offered to stand up for Chen Qi. He was invited to attend the clan meeting of the [Chen Royal Clan] for this very purpose.
Chen Qi could more or less guess what Ren Changgeng was thinking.
But seeing through it without pointing it out, as the saying goes, adding icing on the cake is not as good as providing help when it is timely.
Ren Changgeng can help him today, and if he needs help in the future, Chen Qi will naturally help him.
In this way, the two of them played chess with their own thoughts until sunset, and then exchanged greetings and said goodbye.
…
Two more days passed.
These days, not only Chen Qi, but other candidates for the throne are also running around to invite some high-ranking people.
However, there is one exception.
【Shangjing】In a courtyard somewhere, I heard the roar of the wind and a few dazzling cold lights streaking across the sky.
An afterimage, appearing and disappearing on the lotus pond at a speed that is difficult to catch with the naked eye, looks like a ghost.
As the shadows of swords suddenly appeared, the lotus pond seemed to have been detonated by a depth charge, and a monstrous wave of more than ten meters high appeared.
Whoosh~~~
The afterimage floated down from the void and landed steadily on the ground.
It can be seen that the true energy around his body is as solid as silk and as sharp as a sword, which makes people feel cold.
Bang bang bang~~~
At this time, there was a burst of applause.
Looking for the reputation, I saw Chen Hongji, the eleventh master, walking towards him with a smile on his face and clapping his hands.
When Chen Yangyao saw this, he bowed his hands and said, "Eleventh Master."
Chen Shishi nodded, "Yang Yao, your martial arts realm has improved a lot compared to before."
"I believe that given time, we will be able to successfully integrate the five elements and enter the six paths of reincarnation."
Chen Shiyi clicked his tongue and sighed, "A master of the six-week Heavenly Martial Arts in the Transformation Realm who is only in his thirties is indeed worthy of being a blue-level sixth-level talent, which can be said to be an outstanding talent."
Chen Yangyao replied modestly, "This is all thanks to the guidance of the Eleventh Master."
Chen Shiyi stroked his beard gently and smiled broadly, "You don't have to praise me too much. This is your own strength. What does it have to do with me?"
Chen Yangyao laughed it off.
"I wonder why Master Eleven came to see me so late?"
When it came to business, Chen Shiyi's smile faded slightly, "I heard that you rejected the Lin family's visit again?"
"yes."
"Although the Lin family in our [Shangjing] is not as influential as those gold and silver families, they still have a certain influence. They take the initiative to show their kindness, and you should accept it."
Chen Yangyao shook his head, "No need.
This round of assessment will depend on the status and power of those invited."
"Since there are better candidates, even if they come, they won't have much effect."
Chen Shiyi was a bit dumbfounded, "As far as I know, the other candidates for the throne are currently looking for someone to attend the clan meeting and are very busy.
And you are starting to pick it up?
It is really……"
Without comparison, there is no harm.
Because Chen Yangyao performed well in the previous rounds of assessments for the throne, he has become the favorite to win the throne.
Some foreign forces, after learning about the contents of this round of [Chen Royal Family] assessment, also began to cling to this candidate for the throne.
In the past few days, Chen Yangyao's mansion has been crowded with people.
Most of them came here because of their reputation and wanted to help Chen Yangyao in order to leave a good impression.
There are also some prominent figures among them.
But Chen Yangyao did not accept them all, but chose the best ones.
Correspondingly, other candidates for the throne are not so lucky.
Not to mention running around every day, even if I find some supporters, they are still insignificant people.
"Since you have your own sense of discretion, I won't say anything more.
In two days, my Chen family will have a meeting. Here, I wish you success and come out on top."
Chen Yangyao bowed his hand in thanks and said, "I would like to borrow the auspicious words from the eleventh master."
…
The next two days.
【Shangjing】A tense and festive atmosphere began to fill the city.
The streets and alleys are decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, just like during the Spring Festival, when every household is rejoicing.
No other reason, just because the [Chen Royal Family] clan meeting every five years is just around the corner.
In [Shangjing], the [Chen Royal Family] held a clan gathering with great momentum, and it has become a fixed festival for Shangjing people.
A family festival has attracted local people to celebrate together, which shows how far-reaching influence the [Chen Royal Family] has.
However, this year's Chen Family Reunion is very different from the past.
Many people have learned through some gossip that the [Chen Royal Family], which never invited outsiders to participate in clan gatherings in previous years, has invited many foreigners to participate this time for the first time.
And those who are lucky enough to be invited are all well-known big names from all walks of life.
Such a strange behavior naturally aroused different opinions.
Some people say that the [Chen Royal Family] stopped working behind closed doors and began to make good friends with foreign forces.
Some people also say that the [Chen Royal Family] is about to undergo major changes, so they are preparing to change their past behavior.
Some people even say that the [Chen Royal Family] will be in great danger, and this time they are taking advantage of the clan meeting to seek help from foreign forces.
But only a handful of people know the truth.
On the third day of August, with a burst of gongs and drums, firecrackers blasted.
The [Chen Royal Family] clan meeting officially begins.
