Although Chen Tianxing has explained his reasons for resigning, everyone still finds it a bit unbelievable.
If nothing else, just like Dongfang Hong asked, even if the Chen family really wants Chen Hongyuan to inherit the Chen family, there is no need to be so anxious. He can completely let him accumulate some experience with Chen Tianxing first, and then Ascend.
However, the fact is that Chen Hongyuan had just returned from the Dead Realm for more than a month, and he suddenly said that he wanted Chen Hongyuan to take office.
Moreover, calculating the time, it took about ten days for the Chen family to send out the invitation letters to the major families, and it took another ten days for them to arrive at the Chen family.
Counting this way, it means that Chen Hongyuan has been designated as the new head of the Chen family for almost a month.
But at that time, it seemed that Chen Hongyuan had just come out of the Dead Realm and had only been there for a few days.
Moreover, I had not heard that the Chen family was going to establish a new head of the family before, but at that time, the Chen family suddenly asked Chen Hongyuan to take over, which was also in a hurry.
If it was just a rush, it would seem normal. But the problem is that the old head of the family, Chen Tianxing, is still fine and nothing happened. How could the Chen family suddenly make such a decision?
"Go, send someone to the Chen family to investigate carefully what happened to the Chen family in the past month or so!" Situ Xiong said to his entourage as soon as he returned to the residence arranged by the Chen family.
"Dad, what big thing happened when the Chen family brought you all here this time?" Situ Yongkang asked curiously.
He knew that people from the eight major families had arrived today, and it was time to announce important events in the Chen family. And seeing that his father sent people out to investigate as soon as he came back, it was obvious that something unusual had happened.
"After tomorrow, Chen Hongyuan will be the new head of the Chen family!" Situ Xiong said with a frown.
"What? Are you talking about the Chen Hongyuan from two days ago? He is going to become the new head of the Chen family. What is going on?" Situ Yongkang was also shocked.
The guy who broke his Ice Flame Talisman sword skill with one punch was about to become the head of the Chen family in the blink of an eye?
This news is really shocking, and there are no signs at all.
"I don't know the specific situation, but the ancestor of the Chen family has just come out to announce the matter. Tomorrow is the ceremony for the new head of the Chen family to take office!" Situ Xiong said.
"But isn't he the second son of the Chen family? How could he become the new head of the Chen family?" Situ Yongkang was very confused.
Although the situations of the Chen family and the Situ family are different, the eldest son is definitely the first heir. Logically speaking, even if the Chen family were to change its head, Chen Hongxing should take over as the new head.
Unless something unexpected happened to the first heir, it would not be like this.
"I heard that Chen Hongxing lost the competition!" Situ Xiong was actually a little confused.
Under normal circumstances, there would be no competition to determine the position of the head of the family. He didn't know why Chen Tianxian did this. Wasn't this a clear way for the brothers to kill each other?
"Competition? They decide the head of the family directly through competition?" Situ Yongkang was also obviously surprised.
"Yes!" Situ Xiong looked at Situ Yongkang and nodded.
"I didn't expect that guy to be the head of the family!" Situ Yongkang clenched his fists tightly, with complicated emotions.
That guy was indeed very strong, but he didn't expect that he was already the new head of the Chen family. When he thought of this, he felt a little unwilling.
The head of their Situ family has already decided that his eldest brother Situ Yongwen is his eldest brother. No one else, no matter how talented or powerful they are, cannot take his place.
"This matter is not that simple. During these days in the Chen family, I haven't heard any news about Chen Hongxing. I'm afraid the Chen family is hiding something!" Situ Xiong said.
He was the first to come to the Chen family, but in the past few days, he heard the Chen family disciples talk about almost all of them talking about Chen Hongyuan. It seemed that in their Chen family, there was only the second master Chen, but not the eldest master Chen. Same.
"Did the eldest son of the Chen family make any mistakes? So he was excluded?" Situ Yongkang said.
"Perhaps we will know this after they complete their investigation!" Situ Xiong said.
Like the situation of the Situ family and his son, other families are also sending people to investigate the matter.
At the same time, just after Chen Hongxuan, the ancestor of the Chen family, announced to the heads of the eight aristocratic families that the Chen family was about to change its head, the Chen family finally informed the entire family of the most important news.
After all, tomorrow is the day that Chen Hongyuan takes office. If the entire Chen family doesn't know, then everyone may be really confused tomorrow, which is a bit unreasonable.
By releasing the news today, at least everyone will be mentally prepared.
As a result, as soon as the news came out, the entire Chen family was in a panic.
Although everyone felt that the news came too suddenly, they did not find it surprising. Instead, it seemed like it was a matter of course.
Everyone in the Chen family was very excited. In many people's minds, they had long thought that Mr. Chen was the best candidate to be the new head of the Chen family. This result was just in line with their expectations.
But what everyone didn't expect was that the news came too suddenly, and tomorrow was the time for the second son to take office, but the Chen family had been hiding the news for so long.
Now everyone finally understands why people from the eight major families came to the Chen family in the past few days.
Before, everyone thought they were here to attend Miss Xinran's wedding, but now it seems that the real purpose of their coming to the Chen family is for the Second Young Master to take office and observe the ceremony.
They knew that all the heads of the eight great families came this time, which was so honorable.
They all also know that the Chen family is not one of the three major aristocratic families, and its status among the nine major aristocratic families is not high. Even if the new head of the family takes the position, even if the heads of several other aristocratic families give him face, the three major aristocratic families will definitely not give him face.
Because the Jiang family had a new head recently appointed to the nine major families. That was a few years ago, and some disciples also went there.
However, they followed the elder, not the head of the family, so they knew the situation of the Jiang family well at that time.
Except for the Feng family, which has a relatively good relationship with the Jiang family, all other aristocratic families were represented by elders who attended the ceremony.
But now that the new head of the Chen family has taken over, all the heads of the eight aristocratic families have come in person. This is such a great honor.
Therefore, all the Chen family members feel that the current Chen family is gaining more and more status among the nine great families, and the second young master is also very respectable.
Maybe the second young master is really the new head of the family who can lead the rise of the Chen family. Otherwise, how could he have such great honor and have all the heads of the aristocratic families come?
