Asura Continent

As soon as Chen Xiaowan returned home, she received a message from her father, telling her to quickly enter the family hall. She didn't know what happened either, so she quickly arrived at the plaza and walked towards the great hall. Arriving at the great hall, Chen Wan'er noticed that all the elders of the Chen family had arrived. The moment she entered, many of the elders secretly let out a sigh of relief. They were obviously waiting for her arrival.

Chen Xiaowan's gaze swept across everyone and then turned to her father, clasping her hands together, "Father, our daughter came here as promised. What business do you have with her?"

Chen Kaiyun nodded his head, indicating that she should stand to the side. He then said to Chen Kaide, "Third brother, Little Wan is already here. If you have anything to say, then just say it!"

Chen Kai De smiled, then stood up and walked to the center of the hall, he coughed lightly and said loudly: "Everyone, I think many people know the purpose of this Clan Assembly, here I will not talk much. "The clan leader hasn't managed to make the Chen Clan strong all these years, and he even almost caused the Chen Clan to fall into an irreparable calamity. In the name of the Great Elder, I propose that Chen Kaiyun give up the position of the clan leader."

The elders all had different expressions when they heard this. Some were expectant, some were surprised, and there were even quite a few people who were hugging each other as if they were watching a good show.

Chen Kaiyun had an indifferent look on his face, as though he already knew that something like this would happen. He didn't say anything, and seriously replied, "I accept Third Brother's suggestion. From today onwards, I will no longer be the clan leader of the Chen Clan."

Hearing her father's words, Chen Wan'er stared blankly. "Father, why did you give up the seat?"

"There's no other reason. This is not a suitable position for me to take, so I naturally have to give it up." Chen Kaiyun glanced at his daughter, his eyes filled with helplessness. He then turned to Chen Kaide and said, "Third brother, what you have done for the clan all these years has been seen by everyone, so I suggest that you succeed the position of clan leader."

Chen Kai De was really eager to become Patriarch, but he still hypocritically waved his hand and said, "How can we do that! "What virtue or ability do I have to become the Clan Chief?"

Those elders who had already privately discussed how to put on an act stood up and expressed their thoughts.

Chen Kai Ming was the first to stand up, "Fourth brother, in the family, you are the most suitable to be the clan leader. Besides you, no one else can assume this position."

"That's right!" Fourth Brother, just be the Patriarch! "

"This is what everyone is thinking. If you don't become the Clan Leader, the Chen Clan will never be able to grow strong."

"..."

As these words rang out one after another, Chen Wan'er could also see that they had been agreed upon long ago.

She did not expect her father to be so cowardly, giving up the position of clan leader just like that. Since she had already decided to give up long ago, why did she have her come here? She really didn't understand why she had come here. Thinking of this, Chen Wan'er once again looked at her father and couldn't help but ask, "Father, the Chen family choosing a new Patriarch has nothing to do with your daughter. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."

Chen Kaiyun did not reply. His mouth moved a few times, as if he wanted to say something. In the end, he swallowed his words.

At this time, Chen Kai De walked in front of Chen Xiao Wan and said, "Niece, you can't leave. For me to call you here this time, there's definitely something important that I need to discuss with you. "

"Talk to me?" Chen Xiaowang didn't like this Third Uncle from the start. She snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "Third Uncle, I'm not an elder of the family, do you need to discuss this with me?"

Chen Kaide was not angry. Smiling faintly, he replied, "You are indeed not an elder of the clan. However, this matter needs to be discussed with you first."

Chen Wan'er really wanted to know what kind of medicine he was selling, "Okay! I wonder if Third Uncle has anything to discuss with your niece? "

Chen Kaide did not answer immediately, instead he shouted towards the outside of the hall, "Peng Fei, come in!"

Outside the hall, a young man walked in. This man was Chen Kai De's nephew, the eldest son of his wife's family, Wang Pengfei.

Wang Pengfei was still wearing his long yellow robe, but he was still dressed in it with vigor. When he walked into the hall and saw Chen Xiaowei, he was extremely excited. Then, Wang Pengfei walked in front of Chen Kai De, clasped his hands and said, "Uncle." With that, he looked at the rest of the people in the hall and very politely bowed, saying respectfully, "Peng Fei greets the elders."

Even if Chen Xiaowan was even more foolish, she could guess what was going on. She felt that this was a trap that had been set up for her.

Sure enough, after Wang Pengfei finished speaking, Chen Kaide coughed and said in a clear voice, "Everyone, Pengfei and Little Wan grew up together. I'm sure everyone knows that childhood is pretty. Today, I suggest that the two of you set a marriage date, and then choose an auspicious day to marry them off. As he spoke, he looked towards Chen Kai Yun who was in the middle of the hall.

Chen Kaiyun nodded his head and said, "I have no objections. It is her fortune that Little Wan was able to marry Peng Fei."

Hearing this, Chen Wan'er was completely stunned. She didn't recognize her own father, so she asked in astonishment, "Father, you want me to marry him?"

"Why, don't you agree?" Chen Kaiyun asked.

Chen Xiaowei laughed, "Father, have you ever thought about how your daughter would feel? Back then you said that you would let me choose my future husband. I didn't expect that you would lie. "

"Humph!" Father is doing this for your own good. Do you think you can decide on the matter of marriage and the words of the matchmaker? " Chen Kaiyun glared at Chen Xiaowan, and said in an irrefutable tone, "I've discussed this with your mother and have already decided. Today, you must marry, even if you don't want to …."

Chen Wan's eyes were filled with tears. She was truly too disappointed in her father. Clutching her mouth, she wanted to run out of the hall.

However, just as she reached the door, two guards suddenly appeared and blocked her path.

"Third Miss, please return to the hall. If you take another step, we won't be polite." One of the guards said coldly. There was not the slightest hint of respect in his voice.

Chen Kai De waved his hand towards the guard, signalling for them to get out of the way, and then came in front of Chen Xiao Wan, "Ah, Xiao Wan! Today is your wedding day, how can you be like this! "It's not that Third Uncle is against you, but you're not young either. Peng Fei is a pretty good person and has already broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage. If you marry him, you will definitely be happy."

Although Chen Kaide did not make a move, his spiritual sense was firmly locked in front of Chen Xiaowan. As long as Chen Xiaowan walked out of the hall, he would not hesitate to subdue her.

Chen Wan'er knew that she couldn't leave, so she sneered and asked, "Happiness?" Third Uncle, do you know what is called happiness? "

"To love each other and live together warmly is to be happy." Chen Kai De answered.

Chen Xiaowan chuckled and couldn't help but ask, "You also know the definition of happiness, but do you think there's love between me and Wang Pengfei? Can a marriage without love be happy? "

"Love is slowly cultivated. As time passes, you will naturally be happy." Having said this, Chen Kai De turned to the rest of the elders and asked in a low voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, when do you think it's better for us to get married?"

"In three days!" Chen Kaiming said, "The earlier the marriage, the better. That way, our Chen Clan would have more strong men faster."

"I also recommend three days later."

"That's right, three days is a good day. Just three days later!"

"..."

The elders seemed to have agreed beforehand, as they all said at the same time, that it would be three days later.

Chen Kai De nodded his head and said in a pretentious manner, "Since everyone says that in three days time, as the new Patriarch, I will not give any face for everyone, then in three days time!" At this point, he paused for a while and then said, "Since the time has been set, this council will end here. Everyone should go back and prepare!"

Wang Pengfei walked in front of Chen Xiaowan and said, "Little Wan, I …"

"Don't call me Little Wan." Chen Xiaowan's heart was bleeding. She had not expected that her father, who had been so affectionate in the past, would actually push her into a fire pit.

Chen Kai De's brows twitched. He was no longer happy and changed his attitude from before. "Chen Xiao Wan, you better be obedient. Otherwise, don't think you can stay in the Chen family."

"Chen Clan?" Chen Xiaowan coldly looked at Chen Kai De, emphasizing each word, "Such a family, I have long since stopped wanting to stay here. If you have the guts, then make me leave."

Chen Wan'er's expression changed. He suddenly raised his right hand, about to slap her.

At this moment, Chen Kai Yun appeared in front of the two of them in a flash, "Third brother, did you forget what you said before?"

"Third brother?" Chen Kaide glanced at Chen Kaiyun and ridiculed him, "Big Brother, are you yelling the wrong thing? I'm the Chen family's Patriarch now, what do you call me? "

Chen Kaiyun's expression was somewhat unhappy, but he did not flare up. He cupped his hands and said, "Patriarch, please don't make things difficult for Wan'er. I will persuade him to marry Peng Fei in three days."

Chen Kaide laughed out loud. He then retracted his raised right hand and said, "These words of yours are enough. I do not wish for any accidents to happen. Otherwise, you will know the outcome." As he spoke, he quickly walked out of the great hall. But just as he arrived at the entrance, he turned back and asked in surprise, "You guys, why are you guys here?"

A middle-aged man's voice could be heard from outside the hall, "Patriarch Chen, since you have taken the position of Patriarch, it should be time for you to fulfill the promise you made back then, right?"

"Promise? What promise?" Chen Kai De was startled, then said with a puzzled expression, "All you said was to find Chen Wan'er, and not to make any promises!"

"That's right, we didn't say anything back then, but now we have to add one more." The middle-aged man sneered and strode inside the hall, followed by more than ten other people.

The person leading the group was no stranger to Chen Xiaowan. It was the Sun Qing Hong of the Tianfeng Sect, and the one behind him was his grandson, Sun Hao. Sun Qinghong was wearing a blue robe. Compared to three days ago, his cultivation level had increased a lot. He had already reached the early stage of Core Formation. Sun Hao and the others behind him were all wearing red clothes. It could be seen that they were all Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Sun Qinghong glanced at everyone in the hall and then looked at Chen Xiaowan, "Where is Lu Yang?"

Chen Xiaowang suddenly understood. She already knew what was going on. It was likely that Chen Kai De and Sun Qing Hong had reached an agreement to help him obtain the Chen family's position. Sun Qinghong also used Chen Kaide to lure him out, and his father was also under great pressure, so he had no choice but to betray her and bring her here.

Thinking up to here, Chen Wan'er sneered, neither servile nor overbearing, and said, "Senior, that year when Lu Yang and I separated, he left alone. How would I know where he is now?"

"Chen Xiaowan, stop pretending with me. Lu Yang will definitely be with you." Sun Hao looked angrily at Chen Xiaowei, gritting his teeth, "I don't need to explain the consequences of not handing over Lu Yang today, do I? Not only will you die, your father will also die. Even everyone in the Chen family will die here … "
