Chapter 173: Fourth Uncle, I Found a Fourth Aunt for Me

Translator: 549690339

Looking at Chen Yang and Chen Xuan in front of him, Chen Tao could not hide the excitement in his heart. Tears gathered in his eyes.

Chen Tao helped the two of them up and wiped away the tears at the corners of his eyes. Then, he smiled and said,”It’s been hard on you all these years.”

As he spoke, Chen Tao patted Yang Chen’s shoulder.” Not bad. That little brat who followed me back then has already become the pillar of support for my Chen Family.”

When Chen Yang heard this, he was filled with emotions.” Ancestor, don’t talk at the door. Hurry up and come in.””

“Alright.”

Immediately, Chen Tao walked into the Chen family with his head held high and his chest puffed out. He did not notice the look Chen Yang gave Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan understood and secretly left to ask his father, Chen De, to go in.

As for the purpose, it was self-evident.

In the meeting hail.

Chen Tao sat in the main seat and looked at the meeting hall that he was very familiar with. Chen Tao could not help but say,”l heard that our Chen family has already advanced to Rank-8. Why don’t we expand the meeting hall?”

“There are still nine elders at the moment, so there’s no need to expand the meeting hall.” Yang Chen explained.”

Chen Tao slapped his forehead.” 1 forgot. It’s only been more than ten years.”

“I heard that you broke through to the Core Formation realm. How did you solve the problem of your cultivation technique?”

“It’s like this. A few months ago, there was a demon emperor riot in Jiang Prefecture…” Yang Chen immediately told Tao Chen about the Rebellion of the Demon Emperor and the referee.

After hearing Yang Chen’s words, Tao Chen couldn’t help but sigh,””It’s really hard on you. Any one of these major disasters is a disaster.”

“For you to be able to persist until now and lead the Chen family to this point, you are stronger than me.”

“Ancestor, you must be joking. How can this kid catch up to you?”Yang Chen smiled.

Chen Tao waved his hand.” We’re a family, so there’s no need to be so polite. Now that the Chen family has you leading them, I can rest assured and retire to the second line to enjoy my old age.”

“Ancestor, you must be joking. With the Core Formation Technique, it’s only a matter of time before you break through to Core Formation. At that time, you’ll have another 200 years of lifespan.”

“I still want to arrange a marriage for the ancestor and resolve his marriage.”Yang Chen smiled.

Sometimes, the truth was often said in a joking tone.

Hearing Yang Chen’s words, Tao Chen laughed and scolded,””Brat, you still dare to make up stories about my marriage? Do you believe that I’ll spank you in public?”

Yang Chen smiled awkwardly.

Fortunately, I pushed the blame to the Great Elder. Otherwise, my dignity as the head of the family would be completely swept away.

Not long after, Chen Xuan walked in with Chen De.

When Chen De saw Chen Tao, tears flowed down the corners of his eyes. He knelt down with a thud.” Fourth Uncle!”

Chen Tao quickly helped Chen De up.” You’re not young anymore. Why are you still in this state?””

“Hey, your cultivation?”

Chen Tao sensed it seriously for a moment before he smiled and said,”You broke through to Meridian Opening?”

“That’s right!”” Yes.” Chen De nodded his head vigorously.” The family head searched for a Grade Seven Elixirs for me. After I took it, my aptitude reached Grade Eight.”

“With the help of the Meridian Unlocking Pill, I’ll break through to the Meridian Unlocking realm naturally.”

Chen Tao was speechless.

Why did it feel so uncomfortable?

Chen Tao felt bitter in his heart. When he first broke through to the Meridian Unsealing realm, he did not have any medicinal pills to assist him. That was a bitter experience.

If it wasn’t for the fact that his talent was decent and slightly stronger than ordinary people, it would probably be difficult for him to break through to Meridian Opening.

“The Chen family is really powerful. They still have spirit stones to buy aptitude pills.

Yang ‘er, choosing you to be the head of the family was the best decision I’ve ever made in my life.”Chen Tao sighed.

“You’re welcome.”

Yang Chen said as he moved out of the hall.

When Chen Xuan saw this, he also moved out of the hall, leaving the meeting hall for Chen De and Chen Tao to chat about their relationship as uncle and nephew.

Seeing that Chen Xuan and Chen Yang had already left the meeting hall, Chen De swallowed his saliva, gritted his teeth, and braced himself.”Fourth Uncle, let me tell you something.”

“Please speak.” Chen Tao held the teacup and took a sip.

This tea is really not bad. It’s much better than when 1 was in the past. I have to drink more.

“Fourth Uncle, I found a fourth aunt for me.”Chen De said with a smile.

“Puff!”

Spitting out the tea in his mouth, Chen Tao said in disbelief,”Cough cough, what did you say? What did you find for you?”

“I found a fourth aunt for me.” Chen De repeated kindly.

Looking at the bulging veins on Chen Tao’s forehead, Chen De felt that he should tell Chen Tao in detail.

“Fourth Uncle, don’t worry. This Fourth Aunt of mine is not an outsider. She’s my Aunt Xue. Didn’t you always like my Aunt Shea? It’s just nice that you can marry her and get rid of the thoughts in your heart.”

“Fourth Uncle, what are you doing?”

“Fourth Uncle, let me explain.”

“All!”

This scream silenced those who heard it, and those who heard it cried.

Outside the meeting hall, Yang Chen heard Chen De’s screams and couldn’t help but say,”Fortunately, I didn’t tell the ancestor. I have to say, I’m a little happy.”

Chen Xuan echoed,”Although I shouldn’t have said that, I’m indeed a little happy.””

After Chen De’s screams in the hall dissipated, Chen Yang looked at Chen Xuan.” Let’s go. Now that the ancestor’s anger has subsided, let’s go and talk about serious matters.”

Chen Xuan nodded and followed Chen Yang into the hall.

In the meeting hall, Chen Tao looked at Chen Yang and Chen Xuan with a gloomy expression.

As for Chen De, he stood at the side with a swollen face and kept winking at the two of them.

Looking at Chen De’s miserable state, Yang Chen gasped. Good lord, as expected of Fourth Uncle, who loved his grandfather the most. This time, he was really good at fighting.

“I want an explanation.” Chen Tao said coldly.

Yang Chen sorted out his thoughts and said,””Ancestor, you might not know this, but the Gongsun family forced us too much. We had no choice but to ally with the Li family.”

“But you also know that because of the matter between you and Ancestor Xue, it’s almost impossible for the two sides to form an alliance.”

“For the safety of the Chen family, 1 can only do this. Because only then will the Li family ally with us.”

After listening to Yang Chen’s explanation, Tao Chen suppressed his anger.”

You did well. If it were me, 1 would have done the same.””

“It’s just that this marriage…”

“Why? Fourth Uncle, you’ve changed your mind and don’t like my Aunt Shea anymore?”Chen De said with a smile.

Chen Tao glared at Chen De.” Nonsense! I’m loyal to your Aunt Xue!”

Chen Tao blushed and glared at Chen De.

Yang Chen sighed. He had to admit that the older one was, the more shrewd they became. Chen De’s short joke eased the atmosphere in the hall.

“Ancestor, 1 see that you don’t approve of this marriage. Why is that? Now that the Chen family had become powerful, it would not be a problem for them to protect the Li family.”

“Now, there shouldn’t be a problem for you to marry Ancestor Xue.”Yang Chen said.

Chen Tao said with some hesitation,”Yes…” There was no problem. It’s just that I’m already so old, yet I’m still doing such a thing in front of the younger generation. This is ultimately a little uncomfortable.”

“Oh, are you afraid that we will delay your love? That’s fine. Recently, the Chen family built a new town to protect the ling fields.”

“Why don’t you two go over and help take care of her?”
