C15 You Don't Deserve to Fight with Me
Now that the Institute of Elders had passed the plan to start the family competition, it meant that the Chu family would start the family competition in a short period of time.
At that time, the younger generation would be able to compete with each other, and the final victor would be able to request the Chu family to agree to one condition.
According to the rules left behind by their ancestors, if they wanted to start the family competition, they had to go through voting. Otherwise, the family competition would not be able to start. The reason why it was like this was because the ancestors of Chu family wanted to test whether the future generations were united or not. If the Institute of Elders fell apart and couldn't gather enough people, then it would be impossible to start the competition.
The purpose of the Elder Council suddenly passing this bill at this time was self-evident!
These people wanted to change the young patriarch!
"Chu Feng, you can escape the first time. You can't escape the 15th! My big brother will definitely suppress you in the Family Competition. No matter whether you live or die in the Family Competition, you just have to pay the price for what happened today!" Chu Sansheng's face twisted slightly as he mocked.
In order to help him vent his anger, Third Master Chu had spent a lot of energy. After all, it was not a small matter to get more than half of the Elders Guild to agree to start the Family Competition. In order to trip Chu Xiaotian and his son, his father had spent all the funds that the Finance Minister had withdrawn over the years!
Fortunately, their plan had succeeded. After enduring in silence for a few years, they finally spoke of this matter today.
"Chu Feng, I now announce that I have reserved your identity as the young patriarch!"
A young man in white clothes slowly walked out from the ancestral mansion and said to Chu Feng.
The young man in white was as gentle as jade, and he looked like a young master of an aristocratic family. He had a very graceful bearing. He also carried a slender white jade sword on his back. At first glance, it looked like... He was like an immortal. However, the tone of his voice was rather domineering and arrogant.
When the juniors and young people in the ancestral mansion saw this white-clothed youth carrying the Jade Sword, they revealed a look of reverence. Even someone as proud as Chu Sansheng had a respectful look in his eyes.
Chu Feng's eyes lit up. "Chu Tian!"
The young man in white with the Jade Sword on his back was the most famous person in the Chu family's younger generation, Chu Tian!
There were two great geniuses in the Chu family. One was Chu Danyan, and the other was Chu Tian. Both of them were the best of the younger generation, and they had quite a reputation in the Azure Cloud City.
Chu Tian was one of them, he was one of the Five Great Geniuses in the Azure Cloud City!
Although he was only ranked fifth, he was still in the limelight.
Being able to be ranked in the Five Great Geniuses indicated that Chu Tian's strength was ranked in the top five among the young generation in the Azure Cloud City!
"Chu Feng, the Family Competition will begin in three months. I hope you will have the courage to fight me. However, even if you don't show yourself at that time, as long as I get first place in the Family Competition... You can also directly ask me to give up my identity as the Young Patriarch to you."
"Even if you don't agree, you have to agree!"
Chu Tian said proudly. Chu Tian's expression was the same as his Jade Sword. Pride, high and mighty. This proud temperament had reached a level that made people feel uncomfortable. However, when it came to Chu Tian, it seemed just right.
It was as if Chu Tian was born to be like this.
"You are not qualified to fight for the position of the young patriarch."
Chu Feng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
"Hmm?"
Chu Tian was surprised. This little brother was really brave now. How dare he talk back to him like this?
"Little brother, you should know that the Family Competition doesn't care about life and death. I'll give you a chance to talk to me properly!" Chu Tian said coldly.
His words carried a strong threat. It seemed that if Chu Feng didn't admit his mistake today, his family would be in deep trouble.
"Threaten me? The thing that I, Chu Feng, am least afraid of in my life is threats!"
Chu Feng smiled. "Chu Tian, since you want to hear it, I will tell you. You are not qualified to be the young patriarch!"
Chu Feng's voice was resolute and firm. It shook the minds of everyone, as if a great bell was ringing.
The people of Chu family were shocked. Chu Feng was not afraid of the number one genius of Chu family, Chu Tian. His tenacity was truly amazing.
Chu Xiaotian felt gratified and said with a smile, "Feng'er, you can directly reject him for this matter. Your current cultivation base is still weak, you don't even need to fight Chu Tian."
According to the rules, Chu Feng could refuse this challenge right now, and Chu Tian wouldn't be able to force him. Although that would be a little shameful, Chu Feng's cultivation base was still weak, and he needed time to grow.
"Chu Feng, you coward! Hide in your turtle shell for the rest of your life!"
Chu Sansheng provoked. Although Chu Feng didn't accept the challenge, and the young patriarch was still the champion of the competition, it wasn't something Chu Sansheng wanted to see.
The elders of Chu family also instigated him.
"I have come to challenge you personally. If you don't accept the challenge, that would be too disappointing."
Third Master Chu and the others had mocking expressions on their faces as they stared at Chu Feng.
Chu Xiaotian coldly snorted. "There's no need to talk about this matter anymore. I've rejected it on behalf of Feng'er. When Feng'er reaches the Spirit Devouring Realm, you can come and challenge him again. This is an order given by me as the patriarch. "
Chu Xiaotian purposely emphasized that this was the patriarch's order. His words carried weight, and he used it to pressure Chu Tian.
Chu Tian saw this and smiled. He took out a token from his pocket. "Second Uncle, I'm sorry. My challenge this time has already been approved by the old man! Although you are the patriarch, you have no right to interfere in this matter!"
The token was like a peach tree carved with golden edges. In the center of the token, there was a vigorous and powerful word carved into it - "Chu."
When they saw the peach wood golden token, the people of Chu family were shocked. "This is... the token of the previous patriarch!"
"That year, the old patriarch's lifespan was almost up. He entered the secret land of Chu family. Before he left, he even took Chu Ling with him. The old patriarch left a message. Anyone who sees Chu Ling will be like the old patriarch himself!"
The elders of Chu family all revealed shocked expressions. Some even knelt down in excitement.
This small wooden token had a special meaning in the Chu family. It was the token of the old patriarch of each generation. Only the patriarch with the token could truly win the support of all the factions in the Chu family.
The patriarch of this generation, Chu Xiaotian, didn't get the support of all the elders because he didn't have the token. This allowed Third Master Chu to take advantage of the loophole.
The reason why he was investigated was because the old patriarch did not give him the Chu Token when he succeeded the throne.
Now that Chu Ling had appeared, those elders were naturally extremely excited.
"Tian, this Chu Ling, where did you come from?" Third Master Chu also cried out in shock. Obviously, he didn't know where Chu Ling came from.
"Father, I have been in seclusion in the forbidden area of Chu family for a period of time. I accidentally received the old patriarch's will. The old patriarch asked me to bring Chu Ling out and report his safety to the Chu family. The old patriarch has successfully passed the great calamity of life and death. The old patriarch will come out of the forbidden area on the day of the competition. " Chu Tian cupped his fists and said with a smile.
"Second uncle, as the patriarch, you should know what meaning Chu Ling represents."
Chu Tian said with a smile. The smile on his face was calm and composed, but it gave people a faint sense of oppression.
Chu Xiaotian didn't know what to say. This time, the matter was different from the others. With the Chu Ling in Chu Tian's hand, even if he was the patriarch, he wouldn't be able to do anything to Chu Tian.
Just as Chu Xiaotian was getting anxious, Chu Feng stood up. He looked at Chu Xiaotian, then at Chu Tian and said with a smile, "Very good. Chu Tian, I will accept your challenge."
"Feng Er?" Chu Xiaotian was puzzled. Chu Feng was only at the Qi Gathering Realm, but Chu Tian was a genius of the Spirit Swallowing Realm. He was not someone Chu Sansheng could compare with. Chu Feng actually dared to accept Chu Tian's challenge?
"Dad, don't worry. I know what to do with this matter."
Chu Feng said with a smile, his face full of confidence.
"Kid, your courage is commendable. But when you fight with my brother, you will know how stupid you are today!" Chu Sansheng said with a mocking tone.
"Shut up and be a prisoner. A person who has become trash and still comes out every day to annoy others."
Chu Feng said lightly, making Chu Sansheng so angry that smoke came out of his nostrils.
"I let you have a sharp tongue. When the time comes, you won't be able to laugh!" Chu Sansheng fiercely criticized.
Chu Feng did not think it was a big deal. He looked at Chu Tian and said, "The reason why I accepted your challenge is not because I care about the position of the young patriarch. I just feel that other than me, this position is mine. No one else in Chu family is qualified to take the position. "
"As for you, Chu Tian, you don't deserve this position. If you become the young patriarch, it will be a loss to the Chu family."
Chu Feng's casual words revealed a special confidence. He didn't take Chu Tian seriously at all.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Even Chu Xiaotian was dumbfounded. Why was Chu Feng so confident? No, this had far exceeded the scope of confidence. It was enough to be called narcissistic.
Could it be that Chu Feng didn't know what the meaning of the Five Great Geniuses in Azure Cloud City was?
Chu Feng had underestimated Chu Tian. This was simply a spiritual suppression!
Not only was Chu Sansheng angry, even the elders were so angry that they laughed.
"Brat, you don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. In three months, you will pay the price for today's pride."
Chu Tian's gentle smile froze. A cold light shot out from his eyes. It was as if countless lightning had flashed across the void. From the rise and fall of his chest, one could tell that he was not feeling good.
He, Chu Tian, had never regarded Chu Feng as a competitor. Previously, he had used a commanding tone to 'challenge' Chu Feng. Because in Chu Tian's eyes, Chu Feng was just a trash, a little loser!
But it was this trash that was even more arrogant than him, and even more arrogant than him. This trash actually thought that he was worthless, and even said that no one was qualified to be the young patriarch?
How ridiculous!
"In the Family Competition, regardless of life or death, take care of yourself."
In the end, Chu Tian coldly threw out a sentence and left angrily.
His anger could also be seen from his back. Chu Tian had already made up his mind to wait for the Family Competition three months later. He would let this young man in front of him understand how ridiculous the words of this young man today were.
His pride was not worth mentioning, and how fragile it was!
"Little bastard, just you wait!" Third Master Chu's expression was gloomy. He glared fiercely at Chu Feng before he flicked his sleeve and left. He originally wanted to give Chu Feng a fierce beating. Now, it seemed like it was all for naught.
He could only wait for three months before the results of the Family Competition would be revealed. It would be useless to say anything now.
