A great emperor master every day—the good-for-nothing young master is having a blast!

A middle-aged man shouted, "Brother, you absolutely mustn't!"

Walking up to Chen Zhaowu, he quickly advised, "Brother, you've made a mistake by handing over the position of head of the Chen family to a child who is still so young!"

The middle-aged man who spoke was Chen Yue's second uncle, Chen Yu.

He is also the second-in-command of the Chen family, second only to Chen Zhaowu, the head of the family.

Luan Xinying frowned slightly. Others might not understand what Chen Yu meant by those words, but did she?

It is indeed too early for Chen Yue to become the head of the family at his age.

But in Chen Yu's opinion, this was not the point at all.

The key point is that Chen Zhaowu relinquished his position as head of the family, but instead of passing it on to him, he passed it on to the younger generation, Chen Yue.

This is why Chen Yu was so eager to stop him; he had been eyeing the position of family head for more than just a year or two.

Luan Xinying questioned in a deep voice, "Second brother, what do you mean by that? Is my Xiaoyue too young to succeed as the head of the family?"

Chen Yu's face was extremely pale, and he stammered, "Brother... Sister-in-law, I... I didn't mean that!"

Luan Xinying immediately asked, "Then may I ask what Second Brother means?"

The relentless questioning left Chen Yu drenched in sweat.

After thinking quickly, he replied, "Sister-in-law, with Xiao Yue's aptitude, he should focus on cultivation. He doesn't have that much time to deal with the Chen family's trivial matters."

"This kind of thing needs to be considered carefully."

Looking at Chen Zhaowu, I couldn't understand what he was thinking.

As Su Yi and Xiao Xuan opened the courtyard gate, Chen Yue and Chen Zhaowu locked eyes for the first time, and Chen Yue immediately knew that Su Yi had come for revenge.

Moreover, he was accompanied by a group of high-ranking members of the Chen family, who were the Chen family's top combat force.

It's rare to see these people gathered together, but this time they all followed Chen Zhaowu, standing at the entrance of the small courtyard in front of Chen Yue's residence.

Such a grand display clearly indicates ill intent.

Chen Yue killed Chen Ming, but Chen Zhaowu, mindful of Gu Jun's status, did not attack him on the spot.

At this time, the Chen family competition ended, and the three people from Xuanyun Holy Land had already left Jiangcheng.

It was perfectly normal for Chen Zhaowu to bring people to settle scores after the fact.

With Teacher Qingxuan around, Chen Yue was not afraid at all.

Chen Yue was not afraid of Elder Weng, whose cultivation had reached the seventh level of the Sun Wheel Realm and who struck fear into the hearts of tens of thousands of people in Jiangcheng.

Chen Zhaowu, a mere Spirit Mansion Realm cultivator, was no match for Chen Yue.

Surprisingly, Chen Zhaowu did not come seeking revenge, and he said something that left all of us baffled.

After calming himself down, Chen Yue said in a composed manner, "Your decision to step down as head of the family is your own business and has nothing to do with me."

"I disdain and do not want to take the position of head of the family."

"You should choose someone else as the next head of the family."

Chen Yue didn't really have much interest in the position of head of the Chen family.

After all, they were all planning to go to the Xuanyun Holy Land a month later.

At this point, adding the identity of the head of the Chen family to him would not bring him any benefit.

The Chen family's assets of tens of millions of high-grade source stones had long since gone into Chen Yue's pocket.

However, from Chen Zhaowu's perspective, Chen Yue was indeed the best candidate.

Many things happened during this year's Chen Family Grand Competition.

As the head of the Chen family, he was powerless to do anything, and could only watch helplessly as his own child died.

For Chen Zhaowu, the identity of the family head was already dispensable.

On the one hand, he held a high position in the Chen family and couldn't do anything; on the other hand, he was also considering the Holy Son of Xuanyun Holy Land.

Chen Zhaowu never imagined that Chen Yue would be involved with the Holy Son of Xuanyun.

By handing over the position of family head to Chen Yue, the Chen family would have the powerful backing of the Xuan Yun Holy Land.

Moreover, those tens of millions of high-grade source stones represent the Chen family's accumulated wealth over hundreds of years.

Chen Yue's lie completely fooled Chen Zhaowu, who was willing to give his all.

Even after learning the truth, we still cannot get the Originium back.

Chen Yue's series of actions left Chen Zhaowu quite helpless.

From Chen Zhaowu's perspective, apart from being young, Chen Yue perfectly fits his ideal candidate for head of the household.

Chen Zhaowu said seriously, "Xiao Yue, you should reconsider the matter of the family head."

Chen Yue waved his hand and immediately refused, saying, "No need to consider it. Whoever wants to sit in the position of patriarch can sit."

Since things had come to this point, Chen Zhaowu couldn't say anything more.

The position of family head, which he considered extremely important, did not sway Chen Yue in the slightest.

He originally planned to bring so many people to announce the handover of the Chen family headship in public.

To everyone's surprise, Chen Yue refused, which made Chen Zhaowu's move seem somewhat superfluous.

Chen Yue's firm refusal gave hope to one person: Chen Yue's second uncle, Chen Yu.

More than a decade ago, Chen Yu had wanted to become the head of the Chen family.

Unfortunately, he was not as talented as Chen Zhaowu, nor was he as important to the old man.

Ultimately, the position of family head smoothly fell to Chen Zhaowu.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Chen Yu will have no connection with the future head of the family.

Coincidentally, this year's Chen family competition did indeed encounter an unexpected incident.

Chen Zhaowu's only son, Chen Ming, was murdered in public by Chen Yue, thus losing his heir.

After careful consideration and a series of internal struggles, Chen Zhaowu chose Chen Yue to succeed him as the head of the Chen family, but Chen Yue was unwilling to take the position.

All things considered, Chen Yu is currently the only one with the best chance of succeeding as the head of the family.

After years of waiting, dawn finally broke.

Chen Yu made up his mind that once Chen Zhaowu was really determined to step down, he would do his best to win the position.

After understanding the reason for the incident, Chen Yue didn't want to see these people anymore and immediately ordered them to leave.

"Since there's nothing else, please leave as soon as possible."

“Our dilapidated little courtyard can’t accommodate you, and besides, I, Chen Yue, don’t welcome you.”

"You can discuss the matter of succeeding as the head of the family yourselves."

"Whoever ends up in this position has nothing to do with me, Chen Yue."

Chen Yue's words were both direct and harsh.

If he doesn't leave, it's a clear sign that they're disrespecting him.

Chen Zhaowu felt aggrieved, but he suppressed his desire to take revenge on Chen Yue and tried his best to please him.

I still didn't get a friendly look and ended up getting a cold shoulder.

Even if you feel incredibly frustrated, you can only endure it.

Luan Xinying said with a smile, "Patriarch, please be careful on the road, and don't accidentally fall and die."

Chen Zhaowu suppressed his anger and forced a stiff smile, "Thank you for your concern, Third Sister-in-law."

Then he said to the people behind him, "Let's go."

After Chen Zhaowu and the others left, Su Yi and Xiao Xuan sat on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Xuan said nervously, "They're finally gone. They brought so many people with them; I thought they were going to take revenge!"

Su Yi touched her heart, which was pounding.

Luan Xinying felt a long-lost sense of relief. After being bullied for so many years, she finally got her revenge today.

Seeing Chen Zhaowu's frustrated yet unwilling-to-lose-angry expression, Luan Xinying's smile brightened.

"Mother, you haven't laughed this happily in a long time."
