C349 It's Him Again
He's here! That fellow had calmed down a little after being yelled at by the patriarch. He forcefully swallowed his saliva.
"Upper Envoy just said yesterday that the candidate to enter the sect will be chosen from the secular family!"
As this fellow stammered out a sentence, the expressions of everyone in the meeting hall immediately changed.
Patriarch Yuu stood up from his chair all of a sudden and stared fixedly at the member who had returned to report.
"What did you say? Tell me again!"
"That, reply to my lord. Upper Envoy has already decided, that, that person has been chosen from the secular world! "
The clansman gulped down another two mouthfuls of saliva. He shrunk his eyes, but did not dare to hide it as he replied in a low voice.
This time, not only Patriarch Yuu, but everyone in the hall also stood up.
All of them stared at the clan member who was speaking with the gaze of someone who wanted to eat him.
Being stared at by so many fierce gazes, this clansman was so frightened that his heart turned cold, and his legs trembled.
They had received the news from the other districts, and they already knew that Upper Envoy had entered the world with a secret mission to select people.
However, Upper Envoy from those districts had first come into contact with the Hidden Clan.
The Hidden Clan was stronger than the Martial Cultivation family in the secular world, and they had a secret relationship with the Hidden Sect all year round.
In other words, the Hidden Clan had always been in contact with the Hidden Sect that couldn't be casually contacted in the secular world.
For so many years, the Hidden Clan had secretly provided the Hidden Sect with a lot of resources, and many people had been selected to join the Hidden Sect.
Therefore, the priority was to pick people from the Hidden Clan, and not only Upper Envoy, who went to the other three districts, had a tacit understanding.
It was also an unspoken rule that had long been established in the past selection of the Hidden Sect.
However, in the southeast, Upper Envoy didn't even say a word to the Hidden Clan before suddenly saying that he wanted to choose from the secular world!
How could the Yuu family accept this? No, they couldn't accept this!
"Are you sure? Is the news true?"
"My Lord, our people have been repeatedly confirmed. It was confirmed that Upper Envoy had indeed decided to choose someone from the inner circle of Merchant Union. "
"Merchant Union, what is that thing?" This was the first time they had heard this term, and it caused the faces of the people from the Yuu family to sink.
"That, that is. It is a new commercial organization built by Xiao Chen. Many families in the southeast have already decided to join it. This time, Upper Envoy wants to choose someone to join the sect, and that person is also a member of the younger generation of the family."
"A bunch of ant-like existences, they actually dare..."
When they heard that the quota that should belong to them had fallen into the hands of those bastards, how could the people of Yuu family tolerate it?
Therefore, they cursed on the spot.
However, Patriarch Yuu's eyes suddenly flashed. He stared at the reporting family member and asked.
"You mean Xiao Chen?"
Hearing this, the rest of the people in the hall finally reacted.
This name was no longer a stranger to them, so their faces turned dark all of a sudden.
"It's him again!"
It was unknown who gritted their teeth and said this, but the others also became furious after this sentence.
This was not the first time Xiao Chen had ruined the good news of Yuu family!
The group of people were furious. Their eyes were covered with a layer of killing intent. Their hatred and anger toward Xiao Chen were all shown on their faces.
"Patriarch..."
After a long time, they turned their heads to look at Patriarch Yuu.
Facing the gazes of these people, how could Patriarch Yuu not know what they were thinking?
But facing a person who was only a day after tomorrow, it was not something that could be easily decided.
After closing his eyes and seemingly thinking for a while, Patriarch Yuu suddenly frowned and said to the group.
"This Xiao Chen suddenly appeared half a year ago. It has only been a few months since then, but he has caused so many disturbances in the southeast. Indeed, we can't just sit and watch."
Patriarch Yuu said solemnly, and his tone also carried a trace of determination.
When the people of Yuu family heard this, their eyes couldn't help but light up. It was as if the depression that had accumulated for so long could finally be released.
But Patriarch Yuu suddenly said, "But..."
"But, that kid once helped Upper Envoy of Hidden Sect in the shitty social meeting held by those families in the secular world."
"With just him? He just happened to be in the right place and took advantage of it. That's all."
Hearing Patriarch Yuu's words, the rest of the people from the Yuu family immediately let out a snort and laughed out loud.
They had already heard about what happened during the exchange meeting from Lin Zhiwei. Of course, they had also heard about it from other families.
Even so, they didn't think that Xiao Chen could really help Loo Zhuo.
After all, before Xiao Chen attacked, the two Upper Envoy had already fought with the two experts for a long time.
Most importantly, in the end, Loo Zhuo was able to withstand the attacks of the two experts by himself.
Therefore, in their eyes, even if Xiao Chen didn't make his move, Upper Envoy and Loo Zhuo would still be fine.
Xiao Chen, on the other hand, could only act as a distraction.
As for the fact that Xiao Chen had rescued dozens of people after that, the Yuu family actually didn't know about it.
Of course, those families wouldn't take the initiative to bring up such an embarrassing matter.
As for Lin Zhiwei, Xiao Chen hadn't told her about it.
After all, Wen Shuyi was also involved in this matter, so Xiao Chen only subconsciously chose to hide it.
After listening to the first half of the story, the people of Yuu family scoffed at Xiao Chen.
They were still secretly regretting why the person who was there wasn't their own Houtian expert.
In fact, it wasn't just the Yuu family who had such thoughts. Almost half of the twelve hidden families had the same thoughts.
This kind of opportunity that could make the Hidden Sect's Upper Envoy owe a favor wasn't many. It just happened to fall on that yellow-haired kid, Xiao Chen.
The more they thought about it, the more unwilling they became.
"In any case, Xiao Chen can't just let him go. He can't let go of this opportunity to enter the Hidden Sect!"
"Third Brother, bring some men with you to see Upper Envoy personally. You must first stabilize him, and at the same time, find out what Upper Envoy's intentions are."
Patriarch Yuu didn't tell him what he was talking about.
However, those who were sitting were all smart people. Soon, everyone understood the meaning of their patriarch.
It was nothing more than a test to see if there was anything fishy between Upper Envoy and Xiao Chen other than the so-called favor.
"It's just an insignificant favor, how can it be compared to 'real money and silver'?"
Immediately, a white-haired old man stood up, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he smiled confidently.
It was obvious that this old man already had an answer in his heart before he had even probed.
One. He didn't know how he managed to cultivate to the Postnatal realm. In the end, wasn't he just a wimpy kid?
He didn't believe that there was anything on that kid that was worthy of Upper Envoy's attention.
When he heard this, Patriarch Yuu frowned and reminded this "Third Brother" in a deep voice.
After that, Patriarch Yuu and a middle-aged man on the other side said, "Spread the word! The quota has been taken, and we are not the only ones who are anxious. Let the other families go and find trouble with Xiao first!"
