"How is this possible? Chen Hongxing injured the ancestor of the Chen family, but Chen Hongyuan defeated Chen Hongxing? This is impossible!" Situ Xiong couldn't believe it even more when he heard the news.
If what Jiang Wuya said is true, wouldn't it mean that Chen Hongyuan's current strength can be compared with the ancestors of the Chen family?
This is simply impossible. He also saw Chen Hongyuan take action at the foot of Cuiyun Peak a few days ago.
Although his strength has indeed improved greatly, it is absolutely impossible to say that his strength is equivalent to that of the ancestor of the Chen family.
"Master Situ, I know this is hard to believe, but I am sure that this news is absolutely true! However, their strength is not really that strong!" Jiang Wuya said.
"What does this mean? Could it be that the strength of the ancestor of the Chen family is not high? This is impossible? The strength standard of the ancestors of each family is the same. Even if the strength is poor, he is not at least a master of Sanxian. Oh, there is no way Chen Hongyuan and the others can compare with the real Sanxian in strength!"
"I heard that the ancestor has passed through the tribulation period!" Jiang Wuya added.
"If that's the case, then this is even more impossible. Head Jiang, please stop being so pretentious and tell me what's going on?" Situ Xiong said with some dissatisfaction.
This guy always spoke mid-sentence, which annoyed him very much.
"The identity of the ancestor of the Chen family in the Tribulation Stage is real, and so is his strength. However, I know that Chen Hongyuan gained such strength because he took the elixir!" Jiang Wuya said.
"Used the elixir? If so, it is possible! So both of their brothers took the elixir?" Situ Xiong frowned.
He did know a bit about the elixir, especially during the last competition between the nine tribes, Situ Yongwen was unconscious, and it was only after using the elixir that he caught up with the last battle with Chen Hongyuan.
Otherwise, the Situ Family would not have been able to get third place. He still understood the power of the elixir.
However, the elixir he gave Situ Yongwen was for healing. If the elixir Chen Hongyuan took was for strengthening his strength, then it seems possible to defeat an ancestor of the Chen family.
What surprised him was that both brothers took out the elixir in the end.
Moreover, although this elixir is powerful, it has a fatal weakness, especially for monks who have not yet reached the stage of transcending tribulation.
Even with his current strength, it is impossible to use the elixir, and he can only rely on the help of his ancestors who are in the tribulation period.
But what puzzled him was that if the two brothers of the Chen family used the elixir in this situation, would the ancestor of the Chen family in the Tribulation Stage be willing to help? Doesn't this make it clear that the two brothers should kill each other?
Or is it that in order to find a suitable head of the Chen family, it doesn't matter even if they sacrifice a successor?
After thinking about it, Situ Xiong felt that there were still too many unreasonable things in it.
If the two Chen brothers were using elixir, then it might make sense in terms of strength.
After all, the power of the elixir is immeasurable, at least he doesn't understand the elixir very well yet.
What's more, the elixir is so precious. Will the Chen family allow them to use two elixirs on such an occasion?
"It should be like this. Of course, this is not the strangest thing. The strangest thing is that when the two of them used the elixir, they did not get help from the ancestors in the Tribulation Period, but released the power of the elixir themselves! "Jiang Wuya continued.
"What? You mean they absorbed the elixir on their own? How is this possible? They are only in the Mahayana stage, how can they absorb the elixir on their own?" Situ Xiong was really shocked at this time.
If they can absorb the elixir themselves, there is no need to ask for the consent of everyone in the Chen family. They can use it if they want, as long as the elixir is their own.
But the problem is that below the Tribulation Stage, even loose immortals cannot use the elixir. And the two brothers of the Chen family are only in the Mahayana stage. How could they absorb the elixir on their own?
"So they said that Chen Hongxing went crazy because he lost control due to the backlash of the elixir, which made him injure the ancestor of the Chen family." Jiang Wuya said.
"Has Chen Hongxing gone crazy?" Situ Xiong said in shock.
"Yes, that's exactly what they said!"
"If Chen Hongxing just went crazy, even if he injured the ancestor of the Chen family, he would not be punished to death. Why would he flee from the Chen family?" Situ Xiong asked doubtfully.
If Chen Hongxing really went crazy, then even if he hurt the ancestor of the Chen family, it must have been unintentional. Even if the Chen family wanted to punish him, they would not sentence him to death, and there was no need for him to leave the Chen family.
But now that he has escaped from the Chen family, doesn't that mean he is absconding out of fear of crime, which is tantamount to defecting from the Chen family?
In this case, even if it is not a capital crime, it is probably a capital crime.
Is it because of this that the Chen family feels that this is a shame to the Chen family, so the Chen family is unwilling to mention Chen Hongxing?
"I heard that Chen Hongxing was very frightened when he went crazy. He was completely unconscious and would kill everyone he saw. Even many people in the Chen family were killed by him. So in this situation, if he didn't escape , and it must be a capital crime!" Jiang Wuya explained.
"So that's it!" Hearing this, Situ Xiong nodded.
If this is the case, it is indeed a bit complicated.
Although the ancestor of the aristocratic family is highly respected, if he didn't care, nothing would happen to Chen Hongxing. At most, he would receive some severe punishment.
But if he killed many Chen family disciples, the consequences would be a bit serious, and it would no longer be easy to forgive.
"Yes, so if Chen Hongxing doesn't escape, he will definitely be dead!" Jiang Wuya said.
"If that's the case, then there's nothing surprising here. Chen Hongyuan has indeed chosen the most suitable head of the family. So what did the head of the Jiang family mean just now?" Situ Xiong asked doubtfully.
After knowing this important news, he felt that it was reasonable and reasonable for Chen Hongyuan to become the new head of the Chen family, and there seemed to be nothing strange about it. Then there was no need for him to ask Situ Yongkang to investigate.
"But I heard that the reason why the Chen family is willing to let Chen Hongyuan become the head of the Chen family is not just that simple!" Jiang Wuya continued.
"What do you mean?" Situ Xiong frowned.
"I wonder if the head of the Situ family knows who Chen Xinran will marry tomorrow?" Jiang Wuya asked.
"Didn't you say you are from Wuji Palace? Is there any problem?"
"Yes, the Chen family does want to marry Chen Xinran to a disciple of the Wuji Palace. But has the head of the Situ family ever thought about why the Chen family is willing to marry a very famous and talented woman from the Chen family to a woman who is not even as good as the Chen family? Wuji Palace? And this person is not a powerful person in Wuji Palace!" Jiang Wuya asked again.
