"Why? Could it be that Patriarch Chen still hasn't made a decision? " When Situ Xiong saw Chen Tianxing's expression, his heart couldn't help but sink. It seemed like Chen Tianxing didn't take his words seriously.
After such a long time, could it be that he still hadn't thought it through?
This fellow was obviously looking down on their Situ Family!
"Patriarch Situ, it's still hard to say for now. Why don't we wait for our ancestor to announce the matter before we discuss this matter?" Chen Tianxing said awkwardly.
He really didn't know how to answer.
If he were to tell the truth now, he was afraid that Situ Xiong would cause a huge ruckus in the Chen Family.
After all, the day of Chen Hongyuan taking over as the new patriarch and Xinran's wedding was getting closer and closer.
He believed that in another one or two days, the other patriarchs or representatives from the other families would arrive. At that time, Situ Xiong wouldn't be able to bring up Xinran again.
And at that time, Chen Hongyuan would smoothly become the new patriarch of the Chen Family. This matter would no longer have anything to do with him.
Besides, the moment Chen Hongyuan became the patriarch, the next day would be Xinran and Xinluo's wedding. At that time, even without him saying it, Situ Xiong would already know the answer.
Although this would offend the Situ Family, they believed that working with Cheng Yu would far surpass working with the Situ Family.
Besides, didn't Cheng Yu say it before?
He had enmity with the Situ Family. If he were to let the Chen Family offend the Situ Family because of Xinluo and Xinran's wedding, Cheng Yu wouldn't just stand by and watch, right?
Chen Hongyuan had also said that even if the nine great families were to join forces, they still wouldn't be Cheng Yu's opponent.
With the relationship between Chen Hongyuan and Cheng Yu, and this matter was related to Xinluo, even if Cheng Yu wanted to escape, it would be impossible.
Therefore, the most important thing for him now was to finish all the things and then move to the back mountain.
Although Chen Hongning had been injured in the battle with Chen Hongxing, he still entrusted Chen Hongxuan to guide him. This could be considered as his great fortune.
He was very clear that because of Chen Hongxing's matter, even if the ancestor didn't intend to guide him, he would still understand.
After all, his son had injured the Patriarch, yet the Patriarch still wanted to give him pointers. Wasn't that bullsh * t?
Fortunately, the Great Ancestor didn't care about this at all. Since he had promised him, even though he couldn't teach him personally, he still entrusted it to someone else. Naturally, he couldn't miss such a great opportunity.
At that time, it would be time to see Chen Hongyuan's ability.
Although doing this seemed to be unfair to his son, he believed in Chen Hongyuan's ability and the relationship between him and Cheng Yu.
If he were to handle it, because his relationship with Cheng Yu wasn't that good, Cheng Yu might not even give him any face.
However, if Chen Hongyuan were to become the head of the family, and this matter was related to his sister, how could he ignore it?
On the other side, it was Cheng Yu's senior brother's matter. Cheng Yu had no choice but to step in.
As long as Cheng Yu appeared, everything would no longer have anything to do with the Chen Family. Let Cheng Yu handle it.
In addition, Cheng Yu already had enmity with the Situ Family. This was the best opportunity.
"Patriarch Chen, I have already said it so clearly. Not sure what Patriarch Chen is still worried about? Could it be that Patriarch Chen has already found another family? "Situ Xiong's complexion was no longer as good as before.
He naturally couldn't let the other aristocratic families know of this matter.
Because once this matter were to be leaked out, the balance of the nine great families would be broken very quickly. It might even cause the other aristocratic families to unite.
Therefore, he could only secretly discuss with Chen Tianxing here.
During this period of time, the Chen Family's position in the nine great families had already changed imperceptibly. Especially after the Death Region trip, the Chen Family's prestige had increased by a lot.
After all, Chen Hongyuan was actually able to return alive. What had happened in the Death Region and his understanding of the situation in the Death Region were all very important information.
Furthermore, although he had always felt that Chen Hongyuan might have only hidden in the Death Region for three months, he wanted to know what the truth was.
Especially what Chen Hongyuan had obtained in the Death Region. What if he had really obtained something in the Death Region?
Moreover, Chen Hongyuan's performance during the Nine Family Tournament was very good. This also showed him that the Chen Family still had a lot of potential.
Although Chen Hongyuan and Dongfang Fei Bai had returned together this time, he wasn't very optimistic about the Dongfang Family. He only admired Chen Hongyuan.
He felt that the Chen Family might really be slowly rising now. Therefore, he wanted to rope them in before the Chen Family rose.
If the Chen Family really rose, then the Situ Family would also have a strong ally.
As for the Jiang Family and the Feng Family, to be honest, although the Situ Family also wanted to rope them in, they had really disappointed the Situ Family.
The Chen Family and the Dongfang Family had all returned alive, but not a single member of the Jiang Family and the Feng Family had returned. This was truly disappointing.
Previously, he had promised the Patriarchs of the two families that if their people returned, they would listen to the Situ Family in the future.
Unfortunately, the Situ Family had failed and the Feng and Jiang Families had not lived up to their expectations. Therefore, he might not be able to rope the Feng and Jiang Families in for the time being.
Even if he could rope them in, their value and potential were obviously not as great as the Chen Family.
Whether it was their performance in the Nine Family Grand Competition or the Death Zone, the Chen Family could be said to be very good.
It should be known that only a small portion of the Ji Family and the Situ Family had returned alive.
However, one person from the Chen Family had gone in and one person had returned. This was a 100% survival rate. Moreover, the difficulty of one person entering the Death Zone was completely different from the difficulty of so many people entering the Death Zone.
Of course, what he wanted to know more was how Chen Hongyuan had survived in the Death Zone.
If he knew this secret, wouldn't it be safer for the Situ Family to enter the Death Zone in the future? Moreover, they would have a better chance of bringing out the resources of the Death Zone.
"Situ Family Patriarch's words are too serious. It's just that the Great Ancestor already knows about this, so he plans to deal with it together. This matter is really not something that I can handle!" Chen Tianxing smiled awkwardly.
This matter was actually quite troublesome. He didn't want to offend the Situ Family, but he couldn't tell them the truth now.
Otherwise, he was afraid that this matter would go wrong again. He was already a criminal now. If he made another mistake, he was afraid that even the Great Ancestor would not forgive him.
