During the Nine Clan Tournament, Chen Hongyuan's outstanding performance had made him, the Eldest Young Master, lose all face.
As the successor of the Chen family's patriarch, he was actually not as good as his younger brother. His younger brother almost got into the top three, while he was eliminated early.
It wasn't easy for this kid to choose a dead end, but he was still able to come back alive. This really made him unable to understand.
"Is the Dead Realm so safe now?" This was the most puzzling thought in Chen Hongxing's heart.
Thinking of this, he actually regretted it a little. If he knew this was the case, he should have taken the initiative to volunteer. Maybe he would have returned safely by now.
In this way, Chen Hongyuan would have nothing to do with it. All the glory and credit would be his.
"How hateful!" Looking at the lively atmosphere of the Chen family, not only was he not in a good mood, but his mood was also very bad.
On the other side, Chen Qiuhan was also in a bad mood. He didn't like Chen Hongyuan.
Because since he was young, he had always been suppressed by Chen Hongyuan, who was known as a genius, making his light appear extremely dim.
But later, Chen Hongyuan didn't come back when he was in the Dark Nether Realm. This made him very excited because from then on, he would be the most talented person in the Chen family.
Even Chen Hongxing couldn't compare to him.
It's just that Chen Hongxing was the son of the Chen family's patriarch and would inherit the position of the Chen family's patriarch in the future, so he naturally received a lot of special treatment.
Otherwise, with Chen Hongxing's talent, he would definitely be inferior to him.
However, just when he was full of expectations for the future, Chen Hongyuan came back inexplicably, which made him very dissatisfied.
However, when he saw that Chen Hongyuan was only at the Severed Soul Stage when he came back, this made him even more excited.
He thought that this genius had truly become the past. Even if he came back now, it would be impossible for him to compare to him because at that time, he was already at the late Body Integration Realm.
But what people didn't expect was that in just two years, Chen Hongyuan's cultivation realm actually increased crazily. Soon, he reached the late Body Integration Realm like him.
However, Chen Hongyuan didn't stay in this realm for long. In just half a year, he stepped into the ranks of the Great Ascension Realm with lightning speed.
Such a cultivation speed was unheard of.
He thought that with the help of their ancestor, his strength had also reached the early dacheng stage. He felt that he could finally compete with Chen Hongyuan again, because they had reached the same starting point.
However, because of the Nine Clans Grand Competition, this guy went into seclusion again and broke through to the late Great Ascension Stage. This was simply incomprehensible. How could anyone in this world cultivate like this?
If it weren't for the fact that the ancestors also hoped that he could shine in the Nine Clan Grand Competition, he would still be at the pitiful Early Mahayana Realm.
However, what made him depressed was that in the Nine Clans Competition, he had continuously drawn the blank lots. Not only had this not brought him any glory, but he had also become a joke among the Nine Clans.
People affectionately called him "Lun Kong Wang"!
In particular, Chen Hongyuan had used his own strength to obtain fourth place. The gap between him and Chen Hongyuan could be said to be growing wider and wider. To the Chen Family, who considered themselves geniuses, it was simply a humiliation.
Therefore, he hated Chen Hongyuan!
However, not long after the Nine Clan Grand Competition ended, he knew that the opportunity had come.
This was because he received news from his father that Chen Hongyuan had volunteered to enter the Dead Zone.
When he first heard of this news, he was very angry. He felt that with so many resources in the Dead Domain, if he could actually enter, wouldn't he be rich? Who knows, he might even be able to obtain some great opportunity, and his strength would become even stronger.
However, after knowing that only one person from the Chen Family had entered, he felt that there was no better news than this.
The Dead Zone was indeed a good place. It was said that precious resources were everywhere, and there were also a lot of opportunities. However, it was also very dangerous. Most people who entered the Dead Zone had a relatively small hope of survival.
Now that Chen Hongyuan had entered the Dead Zone alone, wouldn't that mean that he had no chance of survival?
Therefore, in these three months, his mood was particularly good. He felt that there was nothing to hate about the humiliation that Chen Hongyuan had given him in the past few years.
After all, Chen Hongyuan's life was short, and he had died at such a young age. He was a magnanimous person, so why should he care about this matter?
However, who would have thought that the result would be like this? Not only did he not die in the Dead Zone, the entire Chen Family was now holding a celebratory feast for him alone. This was really infuriating. He felt that Chen Hongyuan had obtained all the good things in this world. This was too unfair.
When he saw that many people of status in the Chen Family were chatting intimately with Chen Hongyuan, and from time to time, sounds of laughter could be heard, he felt even more unhappy in his heart.
"Hmph, I'll let you be proud of yourself!" Chen Qiuhan said disdainfully.
"Young master, I heard from master that when second young master came back from the Dead Zone, his clothes were clean. Everyone else was injured when they came back. Some people said that he and Dongfang Fei Bai of the Dongfang Family might have been hiding in the Dead Zone for three months!" Chen Qiuhan's follower saw the disdain in her eyes, so he couldn't help but flatter her.
"Is what you said true? How come I didn't hear my father say this?" Chen Qiuhan's eyes lit up at first, then he asked with some suspicion.
"I also heard it by chance when master was receiving guests yesterday!" The follower said in a low voice.
"There's such a thing? So this guy didn't have any harvest in the Dead Zone?" Chen Qiuhan said with some excitement.
"Listening to master's words, I think so!"
"Haha, interesting, this is really interesting!" Chen Qiuhan said with a smile.
At this time, his mood suddenly became a lot better, especially when he saw the gloomy face of the eldest young master, Chen Hongxing, appear.
After thinking for a moment, he couldn't help but walk towards Chen Hongxing with light steps.
"Eldest young master! This time, second young master has made a great contribution to the Chen Family, but eldest young master doesn't seem very happy! "Chen Qiuhan said to Chen Hongxing with a smile.
"Whether this young master is happy or not, what does it have to do with you?" Chen Hongxing glanced at the other party. It was such a cold day, yet he was still fanning himself with that folding fan. Although they were no longer afraid of the cold with their strength, looking at him like this, Chen Hongxing really wanted to give him two tight slaps.
However, Chen Qiuhan's father was the Great Elder. If he didn't need his support to inherit the position of the Family Head, he would have beaten this brat into a pig's head.
Putting on airs in front of him, people who didn't know would think that he was the Chen Family Head's successor.
"Eldest young master, please don't misunderstand. I didn't deliberately come here to ridicule you, but I have obtained an interesting news. I don't know if the eldest young master is interested?" He didn't care about Chen Hongxing's attitude towards him, he was already used to it.
"Not interested!" Chen Hongxing didn't even look at Chen Qiuhan and directly left.
