When Patriarch Chen heard this, he couldn't help but look surprised, as if he was shocked by his words. He wanted to speak, but when he saw his father's smiling eyes sweeping towards him, he sat quietly without saying anything.
The old man of the Chen family shook his head and said, "Hey, you know me. I don't have any great ambitions in my life. As an old man, I just want to enjoy my life and play with my grandchildren. I'm afraid I can't help you with what you said."
Hearing this, Patriarch Sun's heart sank, and he said, "Brother, are you dissatisfied with the conditions I proposed?"
“Haha, no no no.” He waved his hands and said with a smile, “It’s just that I’m powerless! This is really hard to do, and I can’t do it.”
Seeing this, the head of the Sun family looked at him deeply. He didn't want to leave like that, so he asked again: "Brother, are you really not going to reconsider it? Even if not for yourself, you should think about the younger generation of the family. If the nephew becomes the Lord of East City, the status of the Chen family will rise even higher, much better than it is now."
Old Master Chen still shook his head and waved his hands: "There is really nothing we can do about this matter. I am powerless." He paused, looked at him, and said: "However, we have known each other for many years. Let me remind you that you should think twice before doing anything and don't act impulsively, otherwise you will regret it."
Seeing that, the Sun family ancestor had no reason to stay any longer. He stood up and said, "In this case, I will leave first. Thank you for your advice, brother. However, I cannot retreat on this matter. Goodbye."
As he turned and walked away, the head of the Chen family stood up and asked, "Father, why did you reject his request? If this is accomplished, it will only benefit our Chen family!"
Hearing this, Mr. Chen looked at him and shook his head: "You are still young, and you only see the surface of things. You don't have a long-term vision."
He was not in a hurry to go back to rest, but sat down and motioned him to sit down. He took a sip of tea and said, "You don't know who this old man Sun is, but how could I not know? If he was sure of the matter, how could he find us here? What's more, I have heard about the people he wants to deal with. They are not weak. Moreover, the people of the Immortal Sect did not pursue it at that time. They must be a little afraid. Even the people of Lingxiao Immortal Sect are afraid of this person. Are you still rushing forward to die?"
Listening to his father's words, Patriarch Chen pondered for a while and asked, "Father, are those people really that powerful?"
"I don't know if it's powerful or not, but we are conservative. Although our Chen family is not one of the top families in this city, no one dares to bully us easily. We should be content and not forget our roots. Pies won't fall from the sky for nothing. We should always remember that the greater the benefit, the greater the disadvantage."
"Yes, I remembered it, father." The head of the Chen family was slightly shocked. Looking at his father who was always smiling, he sighed in his heart: He is far inferior to his father!
After a while, he asked again: "Father, should we check what happened to the Sun family?"
"Need not."
Old Master Chen shook his head: "No matter what it is, we will know it when the time comes. Since we don't interfere in their affairs, there is no need to investigate their affairs."
