Chapter 794: 794

Seeing Long Chen standing out, Xiao Yu was both grateful and afraid . It was unexpected that the person to speak up for Xiao Fei would be an outsider .

Xiao Ling had a complicated expression . Long Chen was the first one from the outside world permitted to enter the Xiao tribe in all of history . She didn’t know whether what she had done was right or wrong anymore .

“Big brother Long Chen…” Xiao Fei was stunned .

“Get up when you speak . ” Long Chen arrived in front of Xiao Fei .

“I committed a mistake . I should be punished…”

“A mistake? What mistake?” asked Long Chen . “Originally, I thought you were a man, which is the only reason I saved you . But now I find that you’re a coward . You really disappoint me . ”

“I’m not a coward!” exclaimed Xiao Fei .

“Did you think that just because you could fight against enemies unafraid of death that you’re not a coward? Did you think that just because you didn’t abandon your companion that you weren’t a coward?

“But you say your decisions were wrong just because someone criticized you? How are you not a coward?

“You risked your life to gather the seven star red spider lily nectar to save someone . You couldn’t bear to see someone close to you suffer the pain of having their soul torn . Let me ask you, if you had to choose again, would you do it again?” asked Long Chen .

Xiao Fei was stunned, but then he nodded . “As long I can stop aunt Qing from suffering that pain, then even if I had to die, I would be willing . If I had to choose again, I would make the same decision . ”

An uproar erupted . It was unexpected that Xiao Fei was actually so obstinate . He didn’t feel any regret .

“Xiao Fei, you are the future leader of the tribe . If you ignore the big picture, you will bring danger to the entire Xiao tribe . You aren’t suited to leading the tribe,” said the old tribe leader .

Xiao Fei shouted, “I never wanted to lead the tribe! I don’t have any great ambitions or goals . Ever since my father died, you all started looking down on me . The only one who always took care of me was aunt Qing . But the rest of you treated me as a tool that had to cultivate all-out every day . It’s been ten years already . I’ve long since had enough .

“If it weren’t for aunt Qing always looking after me, encouraging me, I’d have long since gone crazy because of you . Just because my father was the tribe leader, why do I have to be the next tribe leader? Did you ever ask me if I wanted to? Did you ever ask me what I wanted? I’m just an ordinary cultivator . Must you force a chicken into becoming an eagle?

“You’re the selfish ones! Do you know what it’s like to go all-out cultivating but still be thrown into the distance by your peers? Do you know how many times I thought about taking my own life?

“There are so many geniuses in the tribe . Pick one of them! Why does it have to be me? Only aunt Qing understood me, protected me, and loved me . If I want to die for her, what does it have to do with you?!

“If I die, then I die! Did I ask you to save me?! I just wanted to save aunt Qing! I just want her to not have to suffer! If I had to die, I’d be willing! It has nothing to do with you!”

Xiao Fei became more and more emotional as he spoke . Towards the end, years of grievance began to spill out .

Everyone was silent . Ten years ago, Xiao Fei had just been a child . Thinking of how everyone had looked at him with such disappointment and resentment as he didn’t improve, it truly was a bit unfair . But what other way was there? He was the tribe leader’s son .

Originally, the old tribe leader had already given up his position . But then the new tribe leader had died in battle . And so the old tribe leader had had no choice but to take up the mantle again . That was why everyone called him old tribe leader instead of tribe leader .

Long Chen patted Xiao Fei’s shoulder . “A man should be manly . What are you crying about? Crying is for the weak . The strong are the ones who make others cry . Since you were born a man, you have to understand that you were born to be a man capable of supporting heaven and earth . Suffering and grievances are your trials . Only once you pass those trials can you become strong . Weak people don’t get strong just because they want to . They have to have a reason to get stronger . Wipe away those things in your eyes . Don’t start bawling because of a little grievance . You’re a man . Grievances have to be stuffed inside . ”

“Yes, big brother Long Chen . I’ll listen to you . ” Xiao Fei wiped away his tears and stood up .

For some unknown reason, having Long Chen by his side gave him endless confidence . He trusted that Long Chen’s words were correct . Long Chen definitely wouldn’t trick him .

At this time, the Xiao tribe’s experts were all silent . More people were starting to walk out from the interior of the Xiao tribe . They tightly surrounded them .

Long Chen looked at those people and said, “Xiao Fei is still a child . Although I’m not sure why you’re all pushing him so hard, if my guess is right, his body must be special . He should possess immense potential, which is why you’re pushing him to be your tribe leader . ”

Everyone was surprised by his words . Many of them were startled, not understanding what he was saying . They turned to look at the old tribe leader and the Elders .

The old tribe leader nodded slightly . “Yes . Xiao Fei possesses an immense energy within him . Once it’s activated, his accomplishments will very likely surpass the previous tribe leader . He would become the strongest expert born from our Xiao tribe since the Immemorial Path was sealed . Unfortunately…”

He sighed . The other Elders were also somber . They naturally had their own secret troubles for them to force Xiao Fei to work so hard .

Currently, Xiao Fei was just a rank one Celestial . If he was unable to awaken as a rank three Celestial by the time he was sixteen, he would forever be a rank one Celestial .

Within the Immemorial Path, there was the remnant spiritual qi from the immortal era . The children here would automatically awaken as Celestials by the time they were nine years old . But normally, they would only be rank one Celestials . Amongst ten thousand people, perhaps only one person would awaken as a rank two Celestial .

As for Xiao Fei’s father, he had been a terrifying rank three Celestial . Xiao Fei was his only son, and within his body flowed his father’s blood . A terrifying energy was hidden within him, and once it was activated, he would also become a rank three Celestial .

The third rank was the limit for these indigenous people . They suffered under the laws of the Immemorial Path, and so they were unable to break through to the fourth rank .

But as time passed, Xiao Fei grew older, and there was still no sign of his awakening . That energy within him was dormant . That made the higher-ups of the tribe extremely worried .

So they had increased the pressure on Xiao Fei more and more . They hoped he would awaken that energy under their pressure . Now, Xiao Fei was already fifteen years old . They no longer hoped he could awaken as a rank three Celestial . Just becoming a rank two Celestial would make them happy .

In truth, all these Elders cared deeply about Xiao Fei . That was why they were so angry that Xiao Fei would suddenly disappear to go gather the seven star red spider lily nectar at such a time . They were afraid of something unexpected happening to him .

“Since you don’t want to be the future tribe leader, then fine . The old tribe leader is present . Let’s choose a new successor,” said Xiao Gu suddenly .

His intentions were obvious . Amongst the junior generation, he was the strongest . Although they were all rank one Celestials, the only one who could slightly suppress him was Xiao Ling . But there was no precedent of a female tribe leader in the Xiao tribe .

“There’s no need for that . You don’t have the qualifications,” said Long Chen disdainfully .

“What nonsense . How do I not qualify?” raged Xiao Gu .

“Firstly, you’re impatient, hot-tempered, and tyrannical . You like to conduct yourself according to your temper, which is the typical style of a tyrant .

“Secondly, you are selfish and apathetic to anyone else . Xiao Fei is the last generation’s tribe leader’s son . Even the old tribe leader has said that the previous tribe leader died in battle . Xiao Fei is so pitiful, but you still hit him when he’s down, fighting for his position .

“Thirdly, a tribe leader should possess a benevolent heart, a heart for the tribe, a heart to protect the tribe to their death . Xiao Fei is willing to throw away his life for his family . Do you have that courage?

“Fourthly, and this is the most important one, you’re not strong enough . Compared to Xiao Fei, you are greatly lacking . ” Long Chen shook his head contemptuously .

The first three points were well said . Everyone had been nodding inside, feeling that Long Chen’s words were correct . But his last point was doubtful .

Xiao Gu was a late Sea Expansion expert, and he was a rank one Celestial . Furthermore, his combat power was also excellent . Was Long Chen getting things backward by saying Xiao Gu was weaker than Xiao Fei?

The old tribe leader was silent . He just calmly watched . As for the white-eyed elder by his side, he hadn’t said a word from the start . His eyes didn’t even move . It was as if he was truly blind .

“Bullshit! How can I be weaker than him? If you can’t accept that, then let’s have a fight right now! The loser doesn’t have the qualifications to be the tribe leader!” sneered Xiao Gu .

His words were quite smart . It wasn’t very realistic for him to suggest that he become the tribe leader just because he won . But once he eliminated Xiao Fei from the competition, then there was no one else more qualified than him in the junior generation . The tribe leader position would still be his . Furthermore, this suggestion wasn’t objectionable .

“I never wanted to be the tribe leader . If you want that position, you can take it . I-” said Xiao Fei .

“Little brother, this time you’re wrong . The tribe leader position is like a peach . Even if you don’t eat it, you can give it to others . That’s called magnanimity . But if someone wants to snatch it from you before you’re offering, then the flavor changes . Then it’s not magnanimity, but cowardice . Furthermore, even if it’s for no one else, I’m sure your aunt Qing also has great expectations for you . She has definitely been looking forward to the day that you succeed the tribe leader position and bring the tribe to glory,” said Long Chen .

When Long Chen mentioned Xiao Qing, Xiao Fei’s eyes reddened . He clearly cared deeply about aunt Qing . He clenched his teeth and said, “Fine, I’ll go all-out . ”

Xiao Fei walked over to Xiao Gu, overflowing with battle intent, startling everyone . For Xiao Fei to fight Xiao Gu was just asking to be humiliated .

“Hahaha, good . Then let me see just what you’ll use to go all-out against me,” laughed Xiao Gu .

Xiao Fei had only just taken a few steps when he was held back by Long Chen . “What are you doing?”

“I’m going to go all-out against him . For aunt Qing, I’ll be the tribe leader!” said Xiao Fei .

“What’s the point? You can’t beat him . ” Long Chen shook his head .

Xiao Fei was befuddled . Just now, hadn’t he encouraged him? Why was he pouring ice water over him now?

Long Chen couldn’t be bothered to say any more to that child . To Xiao Gu, he said, “It seems you didn’t understand what I meant when I said that you were weaker than him .

“In this world, there are two kinds of power . One is your own strength, and one is outer strength . Xiao Fei’s own strength isn’t as great as yours, but he has outer strength .

“Outer strength?” asked a confused Xiao Gu .

“Hehe, that outer strength is me!” Long Chen lazily smiled and patted himself on the chest .
