Not long after, Master Li returned. Following him was a white-haired old man.
When he saw the old man, Shen Qiyu put away the arrogance on his face and cupped his hands at the old man.” Greetings, Venerable Li.””
Hearing Shen Qiyu’s address, Chen Yang was somewhat puzzled. Wasn’t the honorific title of a Purple Mansion Realm expert a Venerable? Why did the Daosource Realm have to address him as Supremacy?
The old man seemed to have noticed Chen Yang’s confusion. He smiled and said,””Clan Lord Chen, you might not know this, but Supremacies at the Zifu level are addressed by ordinary people and weaker martial artists.”
“After you break through to the Zifu Disciple level, if you have any teachers, you will inform them. Don’t use the name of that Sovereign.”
“Because only those at the Daoyuan Realm and above are qualified to be addressed. Even if the strong addressed the weak, they still had to address them respectfully.”
“You haven’t heard of anyone addressing a Zifu Disciple as a Supremacy on stage, right? However, when addressing someone above Daosource, you still have to bring along a Supremacy. This is a rule passed down since ancient times.”
“The difference between us humans and demon beasts is precisely these etiquette laws, so everyone has to abide by them.”
Hearing the Li family’s Dao Origin Patriarch’s words, Chen Yang nodded and cupped his hands.’Thank you, Venerable One.”
Fortunately, he knew about this beforehand. If he didn’t know about this, he might make a fool of himself when he went out in the future.
Yang Chen decided that he would never allow those people to call him a superior when he returned. He had to get used to it in advance.
After telling Yang Chen how to address him, the Li family’s Dao Origin Patriarch continued to smile.”Sir, may I ask which faction you are from and why you have come to my Li family?”
” I’m from the Hundred Lineages ‘Shen Family. Speaking of which, I’m also related to your Li Family by marriage.” Shen Qiyu said slowly.”
Hundred Lineages Shen Clan!
This person was actually from the Hundred Lineages ‘Shen Clan!
Things were not going well. Among the three great fourth-ranked families in the Eastern Ridge Region, the Hundred Lineages ‘Shen family was the strongest.
But why did the Shen family of the Hundred Lineages want to take the Chen family’s name?
With doubts, the Li family ancestor asked,”So it’s the genius of the Shen family. This old man greets you. Shen Tianjiao, may 1 know why you have come to my Li family?”
“It’s like this. The Chen Clan Head has the blood of my Shen Clan in his body, so he can be considered a member of my Shen Clan.”
“Now, a branch of my Shen family has been forcefully taken in by your Li family and extorted more than a million spirit stones from the Chen family. Li Zunzhe, isn’t this a little too much?”
“Is there such a thing as a feeling?” The Li family’s Dao Origin Patriarch frowned and looked at Patriarch Li.” Patriarch, what’s wrong with you? Didn’t you investigate properly when you recruited the vassal families?”
“Yes, yes, yes. 1 was careless. The main reason is that I saw the Chen family developing rapidly and the Chen Yang family head was like a blazing sun. I suddenly developed a love for talent and took him in as a vassal.”
“I forgot to investigate properly. This matter is my fault. I am willing to accept the punishment of the Shen family.”
Hearing the patriarch’s words, the Li family’s ancestor’s eyes flashed with a trace of satisfaction.
As expected of the clan head I chose. This shows that this was a coincidence and not intentional. There was also the boasting of the Chen family and Chen Yang, killing two birds with one stone.
Shen Qiyu could not blame the Li Family Head, so he said,””Since it’s a misunderstanding, then it’s fine to resolve it.”
“How about this, you cut off your relationship with the Chen family and return the spirit stones you extorted.”
” Yes, yes, yes,” the Li Family Head quickly replied.” The Li Family will immediately repay 10 million Spirit Stones to compensate the Chen Family.””
Seeing this, Shen Qiyu’s expression softened. Then, he said unhurriedly,””By the way, 1 hope that the Li family can keep the Chen family’s matter a secret and not leak it to other forces. Can you do that?”
“No problem, of course not.” Master Li agreed readily.
“Words are useless. Swear an oath to the heavens and the earth.”Shen Qiyu said calmly.
“You!” Master Li’s words paused. How could this Heaven and Earth Oath be made so easily?
“Hmm? Did the Li Family Head have some difficulties? If there is, you can tell me. I’ll get my family’s ancestor to help solve it.”Shen Qiyu smiled.
Hearing this, the Li family head took a deep breath and circulated the spiritual energy in his body.” 1, Li Daoyuan, swear an oath to the heavens and earth that I will never leak the matter of the Chen family. If I violate this oath, I will be punished by the heavens and the earth!”
The moment the Li family head swore, the Heavenly Dao immediately reacted.
Seeing this, Shen Qiyu nodded in satisfaction.” Master Li, this oath of heaven and earth will not do any harm to your Li family.”
“After all, if the relationship between the Chen family and my Shen family is leaked in the future, my Shen family will not look for your Li family.”
“If you didn’t make the Heaven and Earth Oath, I’m afraid the first person you’ll look for will be your Li family. Not only will it cause trouble, but the ancestor will also destroy your Li family in a fit of anger.”
Hearing Shen Qiyu’s words, the Li Family Head nodded.
Shen Qiyu continued,” Since the Li Clan is willing to swear the Heaven and Earth Oath and is also willing to compensate the Chen Clan, then let’s drop this matter.””
“Oh right, you also said that the Chen family is your vassal, so we should hide as much as we can.”
“No problem.” Master Li didn’t want to refuse anything now. He had to send this God of Plagues away quickly.
Seeing this, Shen Qiyu nodded.” Since that’s the case, we’ll be leaving. As for the spirit stones as compensation, send them to the Chen family as soon as possible.””
Then, Shen Qiyu brought Chen Yang and swaggered out of the Li family.
After Shen Qiyu completely disappeared, the Li Family Patriarch said with a gloomy expression,””Follow me to the meeting hall. Also, tell the clansmen that no one is allowed to leak what happened today. Otherwise, they will be expelled from the clan.”
“Yes, sir!”
In the Li family’s meeting hall, the Li family’s ancestor looked coldly at the trembling elders in front of him and said indifferently,”Tell me about the Chen family.”
Immediately, the Li family head told the ancestor everything about the Chen family.
After hearing the words of the Li family’s head, the Li family’s ancestor slammed the table and said angrily,”Foolish! Do you think that this puppet can be born for no reason?”
“Or do you think that there are ruins of such puppets in this desolate place?” “There’s obviously a force behind this. Can’t you guys think of it? Or are you guys used to being domineering and forgetting that there’s always someone better than you?”
Hearing the patriarch’s reprimand, the elders lowered their heads. They were only attracted by the benefits of this puppet and had forgotten that there must be many secrets hidden inside.
However, Elder Li Kerning asked unwillingly,”Ancestor, is that person really from the Shen family?”
“Could it be that he was lucky enough to obtain the Dao Origin phantom phantom and came over to pretend?”
“I won’t.”
The Li Family Patriarch shook his head.” I sensed a bloodline from that person. This is indeed the aura of the Hundred Lineages ‘Shen Family.”
“Of course, the most important thing is that the Dao Origin phantom is clearly condensed by a peak Dao Origin expert.”
“The only peak Dao Origin expert in the Eastern Ridge Region who has comprehended the Dao of Fire is the Shen family’s Venerable Lord Huo.”
Hearing the ancestor’s words, the last trace of hope in Li Kerning’s heart was completely extinguished.
He did not expect that such a huge figure would stand behind this small Chen family.
“Patriarch, how should we deal with the Chen family next?” Patriarch Li asked.”
“What else can we do? With the Shen family backing us, the Chen family can do whatever they want in the Endless Mountains.”
“According to what the Shen family said, on the surface, the Chen family is still a vassal of our Li family. In fact, we have to be careful with the Chen family.”
As he said this, the Li family ancestor sighed faintly.” My Li family is no longer the ruler of the Endless Mountain Range.”
When the elders heard this, their expressions turned ugly.
Their Li family had been banished to such a remote place, but they could not rule this place. Where was the logic in this?
Li Kehua reminded him,””Ancestor, I have a question. Why does the Shen family value Chen Yang so much?”
“Needless to say, he must have outstanding talent.’The Li family ancestor said without hesitation.
But as soon as he finished speaking, the Li family ancestor suddenly felt that something was wrong.” If Chen Yang’s talent is outstanding, then why didn’t the Shen family recruit him?”
“Maybe Yang Chen is unwilling?” Patriarch Li tried.
“He’s not willing. Is this something that he can do just because he’s not willing? Can he still reject the Shen family’s decision?”
“Wait, if he is…”
