I thought the patriarch would reprimand him for the second master of the clan.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Chen Jing's straightforward words, he laughed instead.

"The elder is one of the pillars of our clan, just like these two cups."

As the patriarch said, he took out two tea cups and put a ruler on the cup.

"Among the seven great families, more than half of the families have at least two foundation-building masters. Therefore, the status of the grand elder, without me, you all understand.

Although he is also Optimus Prime, over the years, his line has done more excessive things.

As the patriarch, I can only look in my eyes, but I can't say anything."

Having said this, he removed one of the cups, and the ruler fell off immediately.

And this is what he meant to express.

It is precisely because the position of the too elder is too important, so he can neither say anything nor say anything, but can only open one eye and close one eye.

If it is too true, then the whole Chen family will collapse like the ruler on this teacup because of the missing one.

"You hurt him this time. From the perspective of the overall situation, I must punish you.

However, after all, there are big variables this time.Both you and Minghan have entered the field of foundation building.This means that there are already two more cups under the Chen family's ruler."

He brought two more cups over and arched the ruler again.

The three cups stand together, which is obviously more stable than the two cups.

"In this way, I naturally can't punish you. Although you are young, you can see that you are a sensible child. You should know that when the patriarch of a clan, how heavy is the burden on your shoulders?" said the patriarch.

Chen Jing nodded.

Just like being an emperor, everyone thinks that being an emperor is good, with unmatched power, and whatever you think.

But no one thought that when the emperor was tired, he would get up at 4 o'clock every day and engage in three or four, every day.If there is something in the world, I will come to your memo.It's really annoying.

"But this burden, after all, still has to be carried."

The patriarch smiled and walked to Chen Jing again, and stuffed him with a gold token: "From today onwards, you and Ming Han are both promoted to the gold-level elders of the Chen family. I know you may not want to accept the cumbersome kind of family. Restraint. But you must also remember that after all, you are bleeding from the Chen family. Therefore, if you don't want to take this burden, you have to take it."

Chen Jing took the golden token and said, "Patriarch, are you afraid that I will bully others?"

Now that there is a gold token, it is tantamount to stepping into the highest-level circle of elders.

He was a Silver-level elder before, so he dared to injure the elder too. Now that he is a gold-level elder, the patriarch is not afraid that he will be more arrogant?

"Although it is the first time I have met you, I know everything about you. I know that you are not the kind of person who likes to bully others. Besides, in my position, I will retire after all. The next patriarch , Who do you think is better?" The patriarch asked with a smile.

Chen Jing smiled, how can you ask him about this kind of thing?

But now that he asked, he simply answered: "Uncle Wenyou is very suitable."

"The literary friends are not strong enough, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public." The patriarch said.

At present, Chen Wenyou has not yet reached the peak of Qi refining. His strength is good at best, not first-class.

"Being a patriarch requires a sense of responsibility and means, but strength is second. If Wenyou is the patriarch, I absolutely agree. He is not strong enough. As long as there are enough people to support him, can it be different?" Chen Jing said.

"Haha." The patriarch showed a deep smile.

"The bigger the family, the harder it will be to manage. Remember what you said today. After I abdicate, no matter who is the patriarch, I also hope you will do my best to support. If you can do this, it will be okay for you to deceive others. , As long as it's not too much. I will also close one eye."

Although there is nothing to say about this, Chen Jing has already heard it.

The old patriarch meant that Chen Wenyou was actually appointed as the next generation patriarch.

But I was also afraid that Chen Wenyou was not strong enough and couldn't live with the elders, so I called Chen Jing to come over and try Chen Jing's attitude.

And Chen Jing's answer just now made him quite satisfied.

...

By the dock, the sea breeze is salty.

Most of the people have already left.

There are still a small number of people who are still waiting here.

A small percentage of Chen Wenbang's people are here.It also includes people from the line of the elder too.

The elder Tai was seriously injured this time, his elbow was dislocated, and his upper arm bone was cracked.Even with his internal organs, his injuries were serious.

So, with his son as the leader, they are all waiting here to discuss an explanation with the patriarch.

Chen Wenbang didn't want to stay to help, he just wanted to see what kind of attitude the patriarch would have towards Chen Jing.

If the patriarch is to protect Chen Jing, then he will no longer have to mention the hatred of his son.

Because Chen Jing's strength is already so strong, and he has the protection of the patriarch, people in his line can't fight it at all.

As a smart person, he can still distinguish between the pros and cons.

But if the patriarch punished Chen Jing, then he would find a way to unite with the elders and take revenge on Chen Jing.

At this moment, the results have not yet come out, and Chen Wenbang is still holding a wait-and-see attitude.

Long Xiyu, who was waiting aside, was weak, pale and a little unstable after standing.

She was injured too badly this time, her origin and soul were weak, and it would take at least ten and a half months to return to normal levels.

She didn't know anyone from the Chen family, so she stood by the railing along the coast without getting close to anyone.

With the sea breeze blowing, she felt a little dizzy.

Suddenly, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, she grabbed the railing and stabilized her body.

However, something suddenly fell out of her body.

Ding~

The thing wrapped in a small cloth, after rolling, revealed its true face.

Blue and luminous, its light is shining, very eye-catching.

That is the psychic weapon-[Clear Water and Blue Cloud Hairpin]!

This psychic weapon was chosen among Penglai Xiandao.After returning, Chen Jing returned the hairpin to her.

Seeing the hairpin dropped, she reached out to pick it up.

But before her, a figure rushed quickly and grabbed [Clear Water and Blue Cloud Hairpin] in one hand.

"Give it back to me." Long Xiyu asked for it and tried to stand up.

"What is this?" The man took the [Clear Water and Green Cloud Hairpin] and felt magical. As soon as he got it, he felt that this thing was full of spiritual power.

When he used his spiritual power and injected it into the hairpin, with a wave of his hand, he saw a cold air from the hairpin, condensing the sea level into a huge ice thorn.
