Chen Yi smiled slightly as he listened to his father's anger and ridicule without a trace of impatience.

One had to know that his father hadn't been this energetic in the past.

Chen Yi knew that this was because his father's cultivation had been crippled. Because his cultivation had been crippled, his father chose to live a low-key life in his own small courtyard, rarely appearing in front of others. The peaceful and boring life that he was leading seemed to make his father's life more peaceful, but in reality, all of his energy and vitality had been grinded away.

On the surface, it looked healthy, but it might not be as long as an ordinary person. After another ten to twenty years, all that was left was a numb shell.

And now, as he displayed his talent and seemed to have a boundless future, his father seemed to have found the meaning of living, and his spirit seemed to have returned.

This was also the reason why Chen Yi was still participating in the tea ceremony despite having the path of the Golden Forest Army.

To strike at Chen Jinghe, to stand up for his father was only one of them. The other was to stimulate his father's spirit, so that his father would not be so numb.

At this moment, Lu Manling's eyes flashed in the northern shadows. A bad idea suddenly occurred to her. She smiled faintly and said, "I seem to have gone too far earlier. Please forgive me."

The sudden gentle tone made Chen Hanhai and the other two confused.

Uncle Chen and Second Uncle Chen were fine, but Chen Hanhai was in the same room as Lu Manling. He had personally witnessed the expression of the warm and gentle Lu Manling change at the beginning, becoming cold and heartless.

Now, Lu Manling once again had a gentle face, but Chen Hanhai had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, Lu Manling's next words caused a huge uproar among all the martial artists in the Xuan Yuan Pavilion.

He heard Lu Manling's cold and heartless suggestion in a gentle tone, "If you think about it carefully, it would be a bit of a loss if you did not accept any of them. "How about this, as long as your Chen Family cripples one of Chen Yi's hands, I'll be in charge and allow two members of the Chen Family to enter the Profound Imagery Sect!"

"What!" Everyone was incomparably shocked.

Even the Zhang Clan and Du Clan members who were gloating over Lu Man's misfortune did not expect that he would come up with such a vicious suggestion.

Zhang Hongyi swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He had previously felt that this Miao Boyang was a person not to be trifled with. He had not expected that this girl, who was around his age, was even more vicious.

He wanted to cripple one of Chen Yi's hands as soon as he opened his mouth.

Which of the big families in Yongde Town didn't know about the situation of the Chen family?

Even though the Chen family kept protecting him, and Chen Jinghe wouldn't reveal his embarrassment, everyone still knew that the Chen family's Chen Jinghe, Chen Xun, and even the Second Master and Chen Yi were not on good terms.

These three people disliked Chen Yi and almost treated him as an enemy.

Now that Lu Manling has put forward such a proposal, it is simply exacerbating the conflict between Chen Jinghe and Chen Yi.

On the Du Family's side, Du Yangpeng's shock lasted for a moment before he sneered: "This idea is good, if Chen Qihe wants to join the Profound Imagery Sect, the Chen Family's Second Master bloodline will definitely oppress Chen Yi. If he succeeds, then Chen Yi will be crippled as well."

"In the future, Chen Yi won't pose any threat at all." There was a huge difference in strength between a martial practitioner with one hand missing and an intact martial practitioner.

An elder standing at the side sighed, "It doesn't matter if it doesn't succeed. As long as the Chen family's second brother forces Chen Yi, Chen Yi will surely break off all ties with the Chen family. Even if Chen Yi is successful in the future, he won't help the Chen family."

"If the Chen Clan wishes to rise to prominence, it will be extremely difficult."

Lu Manling's attack was too vicious.

She only wanted Chen Yi to have a falling out with the Chen family. Who would have thought that Chen Yi would have a falling out with the Chen family, if the Chen family really forced him to do so, then Chen Yi would not only have a falling out with the Chen family, but would have a falling out with them instead.

The young elites of the second floor and the Elders all looked at Lu Manling with a different look in their eyes.

"So this is the genius disciple of a big power?" Are all of them this vicious? "

"Sigh, I had originally wanted to become this lady's follower. However, I do not dare to do so now. Who knows when such a vicious person will be abandoned as cannon fodder and not even a shred of gratitude will be received."

Many young talents began to fear Lu Manling.

If all the disciples of the major powers and sects were like this, they would rather not go. Suddenly, they discovered that the outstanding disciples of the major powers and sects were even more ruthless and cold than they imagined.

The domineering behavior of the young talents of Yongde Town in the past, compared to that of Lu Manling, seemed to be incomparably gentle.

In an instant.

"This little slut, does she really think of us as the weaklings that she can do whatever she wants?"

Not only his father, but Uncle Chen, Chen Liangliang, Chen Li, Chen Chang, and the two elders of the Circulatory Level all revealed extremely furious expressions.

Chen Yi's expression was equally cold.

He had obviously not offended this direct disciple of the Mysterious Shadows Sect, yet this Miss Lu wanted to cripple one of his hands, and even wanted to borrow the Chen Clan's aid. This was simply forcing the Chen Clan to fall out with him.

This kind of behavior made Chen Yi seethe with anger.

Second Uncle Chen was slightly moved. He glanced at Chen Yi as if he wanted to say something. Uncle Chen glared at Second Uncle Chen. "Second Uncle, don't make me look down on you!"

Normally, the clan's internal strife was nothing out of the ordinary. Now that the other party was purposely making fun of them, if they really did what they wanted, how would the Chen Clan be able to stand up for themselves in Yongde Town in the future?

Chen's father looked coldly at Second Uncle Chen. He swore that if this Second Brother dared to say that Chen Yi was going to give up one of his hands to get a spot for the disciples, he would drag Second Uncle down with him even if he were to die.

Second Uncle Chen swallowed his saliva. This was the first time he saw his father's gaze be so cold. Even when he rejected his father's suggestion, causing him to be infuriated, his father's gaze was not as cold as it was now.

In the end, Second Uncle Chen still had some intelligence. He felt that something was wrong with the gazes of the two Revolving Core elders. He knew what he should do.

In the eyes of the two Revolving Core Elders, Chen Yi was related to Second Uncle Chen. If Second Uncle Chen dares to abandon Chen Yi just for Chen Jinghe's future, then they were not related by blood. Wouldn't it be easier to be abandoned?

How could they dare to follow Second Uncle Chen in the future?

It was because Second Uncle Chen understood this that he finally shut his mouth. He didn't want to make his reputation extremely stinky within the clan.

Chen Jinghe also thought of this, and could only suppress the thought that had appeared in his heart.

Uncle Chen let out a sigh of relief. He was afraid that the Second Brother would pull his head and force him to discard one of his hands.

Regardless of success or failure, the grudge between Chen Yi and the Chen family would only grow bigger. This was definitely not a good thing for the Chen family.

Between the north shadows, Chen Haihan angrily refused, "You with the surname Lu, don't think that just because you're a direct disciple of the Profound Imagery Sect you can do as you please!"

The angry Chen Hanhai was not even willing to be addressed as Miss Lu.

It was true that Chen Jinghai valued Chen Jinghe more, but it wasn't as if Chen Yi didn't have a bit of status.

If the price was a bit lower, Chen Hanhai might have sacrificed Chen Yi.

But the price of crippling one of Chen Yi's hands was too big, Chen Hanhai would never agree!

Lu Manling's expression suddenly turned cold. Surnamed Lu? How dare a mere Heavenly Axis Realm from such a small place act so impudently!

She coldly laughed, "Patriarch Chen, if you reject, it's not like anyone else would refuse."

After speaking, Lu Manling strolled out. As her gaze landed on Eastthunder, she casually asked, "Have you made up your mind, members of the Chen Clan?"
