Because the Marquis of Zhongxin had no heirs, he had no choice but to choose a group of a dozen people from the collateral branches of the Chu family as candidates for the heir. After more than a year, other than people like Chu Yunfan who didn't care at all and basically never participated.
In more than a year's time, the dozen or so people fought openly and covertly. After going through all kinds of competitions, the winners and losers were very quickly determined. Among them, there were two people who stood out and became the best of the dozen or so people. These two people were also the best of the younger generation of the Chu family. They had already stepped into the realm of divinity and suppressed the others.
One of them was the Chu Xiujie that Chu Yang Hui spoke of and the other was Chu Haoyu.
After a year of fighting openly and covertly and all kinds of collisions, the dozen or so candidates for the heir gradually split into two factions and were respectively taken in by Chu Xiujie and Chu Haoyu.
The Marquis of Zhongxin also seemed to have a positive attitude towards this. Like raising poisonous insects, they would choose the most outstanding person from among them. Only the most outstanding person had the qualifications to become the heir of the Marquis of Zhongxin and become the Marquis of Zhongxin in the future.
Among the two, Chu Xiujie had the closest relationship with the Marquis of Zhongxin and was the nephew of the Marquis of Zhongxin. Chu Haoyu's relationship was much more distant, but in comparison, Chu Haoyu was a bit more outstanding.
In general, it was hard to tell who was better and each had a large number of supporters. Both sides fought openly and covertly and became more and more intense. This was no longer a secret in the Marquis of Zhongxin's residence.
And now, the only person who was still in a neutral state was none other than Chu Yunfan!
Everyone in the Marquis of Zhongxin's residence knew that because Chu Yunfan looked like the youngest son of the old madam, he was very doted on. But he himself didn't have any cultivation and wouldn't be seen as a threat by others.
Although he was a popular candidate, everyone was very clear that as long as the Marquis of Zhongxin's brain wasn't damaged, he wouldn't choose a person who couldn't cultivate.
However, he had a great influence on the old lady, so both factions wanted to rope him in, but he had always rejected them. Up until now, the dozen or so people were all either one of them or the other, and there was no room for them to be neutral.
Although in theory, all of them could become the heir of the Marquis of Zhongxin, everyone's talent was completely different. There was only one position and in the end, there was only one who could be promoted.
Many people believed that they had no chance of winning, so they chose to side with someone who had a chance. It was similar to the fight for the throne.
"I've said it before, I'm not interested in the position of Crown Prince. Don't come looking for me!" Chu Yunfan replied directly. Before he recovered his strength, he didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, let alone now. Although he had only recovered part of his strength, it was still not something these people could compare with.
Chu Yang Hui's expression immediately darkened. Of course, he knew that Chu Yunfan did not have any ambitions. In reality, everyone in the Marquis of Zhongxin's residence also knew that Chu Yunfan would not show off in front of the Marquis of Zhongxin.
In the eyes of many people, this was a display of self-awareness. After all, a person who could not cultivate was a half-cripple. This kind of person could live as a normal person, but to become a loyal Marquis, it was basically impossible.
Even if he was the biological son of the Marquis of Zhong Xin, he would still face great pressure, much less a side branch.
Although he did not want to get involved, his strong influence in front of the old madam was coveted by many people.
"Chu Yunfan, you have to think carefully. After Young Master Jie becomes the Crown Prince, do you think that you can do whatever you want with the Old Madam's favor?" Chu Yang Hui faintly threatened. "Young Master Jie is the person who has the closest relationship with the Marquis of Zhongxin. He will naturally become the Crown Prince!"
Chu Yunfan naturally heard Chu Yang Hui's threat. He smiled coldly and said, "If he will naturally become the Crown Prince, what does it have to do with us?"
Chu Yunfan's words immediately made Chu Yang Hui startled. Chu Yunfan's words gave them another angle to look at the problem. This was also the biggest reliance of their group. But if this relationship was really so useful, why would there be candidates like them?
"I'm warning you again. Don't bother me. Otherwise, you won't be able to bear the consequences!"
Chu Yunfan said faintly and went straight to his side courtyard.
Chu Yang Hui's face turned green and white. There were more and more people surrounding them. He was also a cousin young master in the manor and had a high status. But now he was slapped in the face by Chu Yunfan on the spot. Many servants saw it and he was immediately angry.
"Chu Yunfan, you are looking for death!"
At the same time, Chu Yang Hui took a step forward and directly punched out. The air violently collapsed and the fist momentum directly smashed in the direction of Chu Yunfan's back.
Chu Yang Hui, who was angry, made a killing move.
"Not good!"
The servants at the side suddenly exclaimed. Compared to the arrogant Chu Yang Hui, they preferred Chu Yunfan, the Young Master Fan. Although Chu Yunfan did not walk out often and was not so dazzling, he was amiable to people and was not arrogant even to them.
They could all see that this was not an act. In fact, he was like this. No matter what the reason was, they always had a good impression of him.
A few servants with cultivation almost immediately stood up, wanting to stop Chu Yang Hui.
However, a scene that surprised them happened. Chu Yang Hui's punch directly hit Chu Yunfan's body, but it did not hit him. Instead, it went straight through him.
It seemed that what he hit was only an afterimage. Then they saw Chu Yunfan turn around at lightning speed. He twisted his body and a long leg swept out like lightning tearing the night sky.
"Bang!"
Unsurprisingly, Chu Yang Hui was swept out with a muffled groan.
At this time, the crowd finally came to their senses. A group of people hurriedly helped Chu Yang Hui, who had fallen to the ground, to his feet. Only then did they find that Chu Yang Hui's chest ribs were all broken, but his internal organs were not injured. The destructive power was precise.
Everyone could see that Chu Yunfan had held back. While they were relieved that no one was killed, they were also extremely surprised.
Young Master Fan actually held back?
Could it be that he was not as rumored in the outside world, a waste who could not cultivate?
What a joke, if Young Master Fan was considered a waste, then what about Young Master Hui who had been sent flying?
Young Master Hui's cultivation was about to reach the Xiantian ninth stage. Although he was not outstanding among the group of candidates, but he was considered to be in the front, but now he was seriously injured by Young Master Fan.
It seemed that everyone had underestimated this Young Master Fan who had been very low-key since he entered the mansion.
