For any power, raising the status of an outsider could give him the status of a guest. Just like when Chen Tianxing wanted to invite Cheng Yu to become a guest of the Chen family, but Cheng Yu refused.
But if it was his own people, raising their status would give them the status of a guest. However, in order to become a guest, one had to make a great contribution to the power.
For example, Chen Hongyuan's contribution was no less than Cheng Yu's arrangement of a formation for the Chen family. Therefore, it was reasonable for Chen Tianxing to want to promote Chen Hongyuan to a guest.
If someone like that couldn't become an official, then it would be too disappointing.
Even though it was just a status of an official, it was definitely different for Chen Hongyuan.
Because Chen Hongxing was the eldest son of the family head, the first heir of the Chen family. In the future, he had a great chance of becoming the family head. Therefore, with his status, he was qualified to participate in the major meetings of the Chen family.
But Chen Hongyuan was different. He was only the second son. Although he was the second heir, his status and identity were still far behind. Therefore, he was not qualified to participate in the various meetings of the Chen family. Therefore, he didn't know a lot of things that happened in the Chen family.
But now, if he were to become an official of an aristocratic family, it would not only be an honor that represented his great contribution to the Chen family, but he would also be an elder. Moreover, he would not be an insignificant elder, but an elder who was in charge of the various affairs of the aristocratic family.
This meant that in the future, if the Chen family had any major matters, he would be qualified to participate in the meeting and even give advice.
At this moment, Chen Hongyuan could be considered to have truly entered the core of the Chen family. He had real power, not just the simple identity of the second young master.
Chen Hongxing wanted to object, but when he saw his second uncle, Chen Tianyun, shaking his head at him, he could only suppress his anger in his heart.
He didn't expect Chen Hongyuan to enter the core of the Chen family. In this case, the two of them would be on equal footing in the future.
Because Chen Tianxing wanted Chen Hongyuan to participate in the core affairs of the Chen family, he would have no advantage in the future.
Although he was still the first heir of the Chen family, with the promotion of Chen Hongyuan's status, the first heir had no meaning.
As long as he couldn't satisfy Chen Tianxing, Chen Tianxing might pass the position of the Patriarch to Chen Hongyuan at any time. How could he not be angry when he thought of this?
He had worked hard for so many years. He thought that everything was going smoothly, but who knew that it would suddenly become like this?
It was all because of Chen Hongyuan.
Back then, he thought that he would die in the Dark Nether Realm, but he didn't know how this guy survived. Furthermore, he was able to return from the Dark Nether Realm after so many years. This was too ridiculous.
Even if that was the case, it would still be fine. However, this fellow had only been back for a few years, and he actually wanted to snatch away the position of the successor to the Patriarch. If he were to stay in the Chen Family for a few more years, wouldn't the position of the Patriarch fall directly into his hands?
Thinking of this, not only was Chen Hongxing furious, but he even revealed some killing intent.
Because the threat that Chen Hongyuan posed to him was too great!
"Then, this matter ends here. However, regarding these resources, no one is allowed to spread it. Don't be afraid of thieves stealing, just be afraid of thieves remembering. The three great aristocratic families are not so easy to deal with. They don't want any aristocratic family to affect their status! "Chen Tianxing finally warned everyone present.
"Patriarch, rest assured, we know the severity!" Everyone nodded and said.
Everyone was not a fool. They also knew what could be said and what couldn't be said.
Moreover, they also hoped that the Chen Family would become stronger and stronger, so that they would get more and more benefits. If something were to happen to the Chen family, it wouldn't be a good thing for them. Although some people liked to fight and fight among themselves, they wouldn't do anything harmful to the Chen family. After all, the Chen family was their root.
A meeting about Chen Hongyuan ended like this. Since several of the most powerful figures in the Chen Family had affirmed Chen Hongyuan's contribution to the Chen Family, who dared to say anything else?
When Chen Tianxing let people spread the news throughout the Chen Family, the entire Chen Family was boiling again.
They naturally didn't know what happened in the Jade Flower Hall, nor did they know what Chen Hongyuan got in the Dead Realm and how many resources he handed over to the Chen Family.
However, they were very clear about what it meant to be a minister. If it was not a great contribution to the Chen Family, it was impossible to be granted the status of a minister.
Therefore, they could be sure that Chen Hongyuan must have made a great contribution to the Chen Family this time.
It's just that they only knew that Chen Hongyuan came back from the Dead Realm. If they gave Chen Hongyuan the status of a minister based on this matter, it would be too difficult to convince them.
"Second Young Master is really too powerful. In just a few years, he went from the middle stage of the Spirit Severing Stage to the late stage of the Great Ascension Stage. Moreover, he came back from the Dead Realm. It's really enviable!"
"Ai! When he came back, he was still in the middle stage of the Spirit Severing Stage like me. But now, I'm only in the late stage of the Spirit Severing Stage. But Second Young Master is already a top expert in the late stage of the Great Ascension Stage. Compared with him, I feel like I'm not even as good as trash! "Someone sighed helplessly.
"Don't belittle yourself. Maybe it's because you have a good foundation. Just like Second Young Master, although he is a young genius, he hasn't been staying in the Spirit Severing Stage for so many years. It's only in these few years that his strength has improved rapidly. Maybe in a few years, you can do it too! "His friend advised.
"It's not as simple as you say. In any case, Second Young Master was a real genius when he was young, but what about me?
I was chosen by the Chen Family. I thought that I was already a genius. But when I came here, I realized that I'm just an ordinary person! "The man said desolately.
When he was chosen by the Chen Family, he thought that he could have a meteoric rise.
But when he came to the Chen Family and cultivated here for so many years, he realized that people like him could be casually picked by the Chen Family. Moreover, those people were even better than him.
When Chen Hongyuan left the Chen Family, he came to the Chen Family. So he only heard the legend of Chen Hongyuan but never saw him.
But when he came back, he saw that the genius of the Chen Family was only in the middle stage of the Spirit Severing Stage, the same realm as him. He even looked down on Chen Hongyuan.
