As the head of a family, this does not mean that he can control everything in the family. In fact, the purpose of having so many elders is to restrict the power of the family head.
In addition, there are Supreme Elders above the head of the family. These are all to prevent the head of the family from monopolizing power alone.
Therefore, although the family head has a lot of power, he also has a lot of helplessness.
Especially for a family like the Dongfang Family, which is only ranked at the bottom among the nine major families, they are also relatively short of resources.
Even if there are better resources, these resources will be handed over to those who are more talented.
But when allocating resources, as the head of the family, you must ensure the advantages of the main line.
If the main line is weaker than the branch line or the surname, then he, the head of the family, will not be able to continue.
As long as he just doesn't become the head of the family, maybe it doesn't matter. But if the power of an aristocratic family is controlled by a branch or a foreign surname, then the existence of this aristocratic family is just a false name.
No matter which family head there is, he does not want to become a sinner of the family.
Therefore, their thoughts about their children are relatively simple. Generally speaking, the position of head of the family is passed down to the eldest son.
In addition, the eldest son has better talents, so the resources he gets are basically the best, and most of the resources are even given to the eldest son.
It is precisely because of this that Dongfang Hong does not care so much for the other children.
But no matter what, your children are still your own flesh and blood after all. It doesn't matter if he doesn't inherit the position of head of the family, but letting them die is something no father wants to see.
But he personally sent his son into the realm of death.
What kind of place is the Death Realm? It's a place where you can escape death.
To be honest, although the relationship between the Dongfang Family and the Chen Family was pretty good, everything became very uncertain after entering the Dead Realm.
Therefore, even for Chen Hongyuan, he was not worried.
Who knows if two people find some valuable treasure, the other one will have other thoughts?
Chen Hongyuan's strength was also displayed in the Nine Clans Competition. At least his son did not have the strength to compete with Chen Hongyuan.
He was the only one in the entire Dongfang family who entered the realm of death, and he was worried no matter what he thought about it.
"Who isn't? But what's the use of regretting it now? Things have already happened. I just hope they both have a good life!" Chen Tianxing was also very helpless about the matters between the aristocratic families.
He felt very ashamed of his little son.
Just because he didn't say something didn't mean he didn't know it. Chen Hongyuan was practicing in the underworld but didn't come back. To be honest, he was more or less suspicious of his eldest son.
However, no matter what he said at that time, it had already happened, but he had no evidence.
Besides, if he really investigates this matter or exposes it, then there may be a change of power in the Chen family.
Although his youngest son was incredibly talented, he had already died in the underworld. And if the eldest son's affairs are exposed, will he still have the resources to become the next head of the Chen family?
It's obviously impossible.
Therefore, when such a thing happened, he felt very painful. However, in order to take care of the overall situation of the Chen family, he could not have an attack.
Fortunately, God never dies, and he never expected that his youngest son would come back alive after so many years.
To be honest, when he saw his youngest son appearing in front of him alive again, he felt that there was nothing better than this in the world.
At least he still felt that God was still favoring him.
However, Chen Hongyuan's return also brought new changes to the eldest son. The two men started fighting among themselves again.
He had warned his eldest son more than once about this situation. And in recent years, Chen Hongxing seems to have settled down a lot.
Perhaps it is because Chen Hongyuan's departure in recent years has already laid the foundation for his future in the Chen family. He may already have the confidence to inherit the Chen family.
So he didn't take action against his brother again. In his opinion, this was a good thing.
However, Chen Hongyuan also changed after he came back. He remembered that Chen Hongyuan was very sensible before and didn't really care much about the position of the head of the family.
But after that incident, he could often feel Chen Hongyuan's desire for the position of head of the Chen family.
But nowadays, almost everyone in the Chen family knows that his eldest son Chen Hongxing will succeed as the head of the family.
He did not dare to give Chen Hongyuan too many ideas, so many times, he had reminded Chen Hongyuan in a very obvious way that he did not intend to change the heir of the family head.
However, now it seems that Chen Hongyuan obviously did not take his reminder seriously.
Every time he thought about these things, he felt helpless.
Every aristocratic family always has some troubles like these. He believes that this kind of thing not only happens to the Chen family, but the other eight major aristocratic families will have such problems to a greater or lesser extent.
Wherever there is power, there will be fighting, and this will never change.
He didn't know what was waiting for him in the future of the Chen family.
However, because of Cheng Yu's appearance, he is really shaken now.
The formation that Cheng Yu arranged for Chen Hongyuan has begun to show results, but the cost of this formation is too high, and a large amount of spiritual crystals will be consumed every time it is used.
If it is used for such a long time, the consumption is really not worth it.
But in order to make the Chen family stronger, these losses are inevitable.
And the most important thing is that the current problem is that such a formation is far from satisfying such a large family.
It would be perfect if there were a few more. I believe that in five hundred years, the Chen family will definitely undergo earth-shaking changes.
Even without the Death Domain, he believed that the Chen family might be able to turn around in five hundred years. I just don’t know if they can afford it for five hundred years.
After all, the more formations there are, the greater the consumption will be, which is also quite a headache.
Moreover, he has hinted to Cheng Yu several times that he hopes he can build some more formations for the Chen family.
But Cheng Yu didn't agree, which made him very regretful.
However, the relationship between his youngest son and Cheng Yu seemed to be very unusual, which made another thought arise in his mind.
If Chen Hongyuan can get Cheng Yu's support, then the position of head of the Chen family may not be handed over to Chen Hongyuan. As long as more formations can be established for the Chen family, the significance to the rise of the Chen family is undoubted.
Therefore, he has been hesitating about this matter!
