"Ancestor..."

The boy said in a confused tone, obviously a little scared.

The seventy to eighty monks present were at the lowest stage of foundation building.

Whenever you see him on weekdays, you must bow respectfully.

Although because of his excellent talent, others treat him very politely.

But considering the huge gap in age, seniority, and realm, how could he dare to yell at everyone?

"It doesn't matter, ancestor will protect you."

Chen Ping smiled kindly at him, but said without any doubt.

The boy had already opened his soul, and his mind was not as exquisite as that of a fifteen or six-year-old mortal. Seeing his ancestor urging him again, he finally puffed up his chest with courage and said in a straight voice:

"Everyone, be quiet!"

"Don't make any noise in front of our ancestors!"

As soon as the words came out, the boy himself was immediately startled.

What he wanted to say was obviously not so direct, so why did it suddenly become different from what was conveyed in his mind?

At the same time, the Chen family monks below were also frightened.

Only then did they realize that the ancestor had arrived at the scene at some unknown time.

For a moment, the noisy meeting hall suddenly became silent.

"I've met my ancestor!"

Then, all the practitioners stood up from their chairs, bowed and shouted in unison.

Everyone's face and eyes were filled with awe.

Chen Xiangwen had already sent someone to leak the news.

In just fifty years, Patriarch Chen Ping has broken through another level!

The middle stage of golden elixir!

Everyone knows what this means.

The ancestor has hope to attack Nascent Soul in the future!

Putting this aside, even ordinary golden elixirs are enough for practitioners to treat them with respect.

On weekdays, most of the monks in the audience could not see the golden elixir at all.

"Discussion is discussion, don't cross the line."

Chen Ping relied on his huge soul power to instantly scan the cultivators and said calmly.

From the moment they entered the meeting hall, these people clearly formed two groups.

The monk surnamed Chen sat on the east side, while the monks with other surnames gathered on the west side.

Among them, the leader surnamed Chen is naturally Chen Xiangwen.

Following him were dozens of foundation-building monks.

Among them, there are as many as eight or nine Dzogchen realms that can hit Yuan Dan at any time.

The Chen family has only really developed in recent years.

The resources allocated to high-grade spiritual roots are almost the same.

It is extremely normal for people to gather together to complete the Foundation Establishment.

As for the number of monks with foreign surnames, they were very few, just a dozen or so.

But the momentum he displayed was no weaker than that of monk surnamed Chen.

Because the leaders are two alchemy saints.

Yu Yangchang and Mu Yiyi.

There is no need to say much about the status of Alchemist.

Even Chen Xiangwen could only rely on Chen Ping's reputation to be on equal footing with them.

After the two alchemy saints, there are newly joined casual cultivators Xiang Chuan, Tang Yun, and Zhao Leer.

Xiang Chuan did not choose to bring the other seven foundation-building concubines.

Since the development of the Chen family, the foundations of the worship hall, mining hall and other halls with foreign surnames are far more than these.

However, under Chen Ping's instruction, not all of them accepted the invitation.

Yu Yangchang and Mu Yi are enough to compete with the direct lineage of the Chen family.

Adding more will easily break this delicate balance.

Of course, the direct descendants of the Chen family who guarded Haichang Island did not have time to rush to Kongming Island.

The key is that Chen Yiru, Chen Xingchao, as well as Ye Mofan and Jiang Peiling, two Yuandan monks who have long been integrated into the Chen family, are either involved in affairs or their whereabouts are unknown.

Otherwise, Chen Xiangwen would not appear so weak.

"Wherever there are people, there will be strife."

Chen Ping observed it for a while and sighed silently.

Although nominally, monks with foreign surnames are loyal to the Chen family, their status should be lower.

However, due to various factors such as Yu Yangchang and Mu Yi, equal resource allocation, the two parties usually have almost the same say.

Everyone can twist it into a hemp rope and show it to the outside world in unison.

However, in order to compete for interests, whether actively or passively, it is also a fact that internal barriers are formed.

The lessons learned by the Ni Xing Sect back then are still vivid in my mind.

From the high-spirited man in the early stage, to the weak defeat in the mid-term, and then to the final disintegration.

So what if Jin Zhaoheng is invincible?

It can't shake the nastiness below either.

Naturally, the external troubles caused by the Broken Star Sect amplified the contradictions within the Counter Star Sect and accelerated its disintegration process.

Now Chen Ping does not have to face the pressure of the Lan Yue Sect, and he is the only Jin Dan ancestor in the clan.

This is an excellent time to quickly integrate the family and external cultivators.

Besides, he Chen Ping is not Jin Zhaoheng.

If there is an unexplainable thorn in the side, he will hit those who deserve to be beaten and kill those who deserve to be killed, regardless of whether you are a direct bloodline or an alchemy sage, he will never be soft-hearted.

"Ancestor, when will the meeting start?"

Yu Yangchang coughed a few times, cupped his fists and asked.

Decades ago, he was forcibly kidnapped by Chen Ping and was filled with anger at first.

But Chen Ping's sincerity was too much.

He was even promised a chance to attack the golden elixir.

For ten years on Kongming Island, he has been doing his best to teach alchemy disciples to repay the Chen family.

Two years ago, he took over all his concubines and made plans to settle there.

Alchemy Saint has a high status, and he has no intention of fighting for power and gain.

But after learning in advance the purpose of Chen Ping's convening of cultivators last night, Mu Yi and others quietly paid a visit.

The Chen family is going to establish a clan!

This is a fundamental change.

Originally, the relationship between master and guest was suppressed, so Yu Yangchang didn't have much room to develop.

Once the sect is established, this layer of shackles will disappear.

If you can hold great power within the new sect, it will be several times better than staying with you as a guest.

"Ancestor said, please calm down, Yu Dansheng, because we have to wait for a group of guests."

Chen Yongzhi bowed his hands towards Yu Yangchang with seriousness and said in a clear voice.

"The ancestor showed his face grandly to Yongzhi, probably because he was cultivating this son as the family's golden elixir seed!"

The hearts of all the cultivators were filled with envy of Chen Yongzhi.

However, no one can find fault with it.

The Chen family has been prospering on Haichang Island for more than seven hundred years, and only this one has happened.

The famous ground spirit root seedlings.

It would be strange if the ancestor didn't show more favor.
