Chapter 1226: Chen Zuan’s Decision
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Chen Zuan understood the thoughts of the Chen Family very well. The older generation was slowly stepping down. His fourth uncle was the strongest among the new generation.
During the magically rich era, everyone had realized how important the cultivation realm was, especially after the Luniverse appeared. Everyone saw a complete cultivation civilization through these battles.
In that civilization, the strong were the rulers. Ordinary people did not have the power to resist.
In the past, when mercenary troops carried out killing missions, they needed detailed plans. They needed a plan A and a plan B. But after they became stronger, it was different. They just had to flatten everything in their way.
Thus, all the families changed the way they thought. The families in China all hoped to have a position in the Heavenly Network, but Nie Ting tightly guarded the Heavenly Network and ensured that nothing could leak. None of them had a chance.
The greatest advantage that the Chen family had was that Chen Baili was a Heavenly King. They definitely had a lot of authority.
But Chen Baili was not interested in fighting for power and position. He did not even have a house of his own. How could you hope that he had any worldly desires?
Chen Zuan’s fourth uncle had discussed with Chen Baili. He hoped that Chen Baili would be able to help the Chen family continue to shine, but after Chen Baili helped the family to obtain some resources, he no longer cared. To him, too many resources would harm the younger generation.
He was particularly concerned about the two new young people in the Chen family, Chen Zuan’s cousins. After he was able to train, he became a playboy in the Capital. He did not do honest work.
Training was their capital that allowed them to shine, but they had never seen their ability as their responsibility.
Ever since then, Chen Baili did not ask about what was happening in the family.
Now, Chen Zuan’s fourth uncle turned his eyes towards Chen Zuan. Many people had realized that the current Chen Zuan, the fatty that they had overlooked, was now on par in the Heavenly Network with Chen Baili!
How many Rank One experts were there in the country?! Out of the 11 Heavenly King, not all of them were Rank Ones either. Chen Zuan definitely had the ability to fight for the position of Heavenly King!
This caused the Chen family to have new ambitions. They hoped that Chen Zuan would become the new Heavenly King and pave the way for the new generation of the Chen family!
If Lu Shu was here, he would realize that the fourth uncle was not much different from the heads of the families in the palace. But the people of the Luniverse knew that it was very difficult for masters to emerge from the families in the palace, as their hearts were not pure enough.
At this moment, Chen Zuan had rejected his fourth uncle. According to his fourth uncle, he had threatened to cut off Chen Zuan’s relations with his family.
His fourth uncle also felt somewhat helpless. In the past, very few members of the family dared to leave the family, as they had always benefited from the resources and support of the family.
But Chen Zuan and Chen Baili had not received much resources from the family. Chen Zuan’s achievements were because of the Ninth Heavenly King.
The Ninth Heavenly King. The Chen family felt that this was Chen Zuan’s greatest advantage.
The legendary Heavenly King occupied a high position in the Heavenly Network. It could be said that he was the third in power within the Heavenly Network. Even outsiders were unable to determine whether the Ninth Heavenly King or Nie Ting was more powerful.
When the large families looked at problems, they still maintained their past habits. It was not easy to change these habits. They focused more on interpersonal relationships. For example, Chen Zuan and Lu Shu were like brothers. Even though Chen Zuan was a Rank Two, he was worth their investment and support.
But they did not expect Chen Zuan to reject them so frankly. To Chen Zuan, he had interacted with Lu Shu for a long time. He felt that everything in the past seemed like fake prosperity. He would only be strong if he trained himself.
If his family was the cage, then he would definitely break out from the family and pursuit the self.
His fourth uncle slowly calmed down. “I was too emotional. I hope that you don’t mind.”
Chen Zuan sighed. “Fourth uncle, I finally understand why you have become the commander of this generation.”
“I’ll take that as a complement.” His fourth uncle smiled. “But I hope that you will think seriously about it. Our family is not giving you any restrictions. We just want to provide you with more resources and a bigger stage. You have no need to reject us so quickly.”
Chen Zuan thought about it for a long time. Then, he said, “Fourth uncle, in the past, I really wanted the family to acknowledge me. But now, I feel that there is no need. It is good enough that I acknowledge myself. It is good enough that Brother Shu and the rest acknowledge me. I have new friends and new comrades. When the space pathway to the Luniverse opened, I suddenly felt that even if I die with them, it will be worth it.”
“You don’t have to take the risk.” His fourth uncle raised his tone.
“You might not understand what I am talking about.” Chen Zuan earnestly said, “I am willing to fight alongside them. This is why I train. It is not because I want to obtain resources for the family and live a long life. I will go to the Luniverse, not because I want to obtain any achievements. I want my growth to be useful to Lu Shu. To me, he is my friend and my teacher. I need to help him, like how he helped me in the past.”
Chen Zuan’s fourth uncle observed Chen Zuan. He was suddenly fatigued. At one period of time, he suddenly recalled an age where he was as passionate. Back then, everything was pleasant. He would even personally write love letters to girls.
Chen Zuan said, “Let me tell you something. Mediocre people are trapped in the cage of interpersonal relations, while the enlightened only race with themselves. I will treat you for this meal. Although my salary is not much, it is enough to support myself.”
With that, Chen Zuan turned and left, leaving his fourth uncle deep in thought.
When Chen Zuan was leaving, he took two bananas, but was stopped by a waitress. “Sir, you are not allowed to take away food from a buffet restaurant.”
Chen Zuan was dumbfounded. “Are you sure?”
The waitress was at a loss. “Yes.”
Then, she watched as Chen Zuan turned back and ate ten chicken legs and ten steaks…
The boss behind the counter was about to explode from rage. “Let him take the bananas and leave…”
His fourth uncle watched all of this, dumbstruck. He had been thinking about what Chen Zuan had said. He felt that the fatty was very deep. His words made people ponder about them.
But how did the fatty change in an instant?!
His fourth uncle mysteriously laughed. When he came today, he did not expect that he would go into action, but he was disciplined by his junior. He even acted impetuously against a small buffet restaurant…
