Chapter 696 Struggle for Interests

As soon as these words came out, the red-haired old man's momentum suddenly stagnated.

He was just proud for a moment, but now that he has calmed down, he really can't find any flaw in the words of the ancestor of the Chen family.

It's a pity that it's hard to recover from the overflowing water. His words have already been spoken, and it will be in vain to say anything else.

"Heh, you are quite good at talking."

Simply, the red-haired old man broke the pot and kidnapped two ancestors of the three families, hoping that they could stand on the same front with him to fight against the Chen family and Zhou Yiqiao who was behind the Chen family.

He said with a smile.

"Since the establishment of our Southwest Immortal Alliance for hundreds of years, your Chen family has always contributed the least in resisting Haixuan Temple. How come when it comes time to distribute the benefits, your Chen family will take the majority?"

Although the ancestors of the other three families did not dare to respond because of Zhou Yiqiao's presence, judging from their tacit attitudes, it was clear that they agreed with what the red-haired old man said.

Seeing that the situation was in a stalemate, the two ancestors of the Chen family looked a little ugly.

They know better than anyone that the Chen family is just pretending to be powerful.

As long as the map of the endless sea is drawn in a few days and Zhou Yiqiao bids farewell and leaves, the Chen family will be brought back to their original shape.

By then, it may be impossible for them to argue with the other four families as they do now.

"Cough cough."

As the Chen family member who is relatively close to Zhou Yiqiao in the conference hall, Chen Xingsheng has a lot of thoughts in his mind, looking for a way to break this situation.

After a while, without caring about Jin Dan's image, he stood up and told everyone an extremely far-fetched reason.

"Fellow Taoists, please wait a moment. I suddenly thought that the time for harvesting the Duran grass I planted has come."

"I will go pick the Duran grass first, and then I will chat with you about the distribution of benefits in the sea area of ​​Haixuan Temple when I come back."

After that, Chen Xingsheng flew away without any hesitation under the astonished gazes of everyone.

During Chen Xingsheng's trip, he naturally planned to go to Lushou Palace in person and ask Zhou Yiqiao to help and stand up for the Chen family.

Arriving at the Lushou Hall in a hurry, Chen Xingsheng tidied up his messy clothes from the quick trip and knocked on the door of the Lushou Hall.

Zhou Yiqiao, who had just entered the state of cultivation, heard someone disturbing him again outside the hall. He couldn't help but frown, opened his eyes, and said in a deep voice.

"I have already said that I have not completed my practice today, and I will not do other insignificant things before that."

Chen Xingsheng had long guessed that Zhou Yiqiao would have such an attitude, and told him what he had thought about for a long time on the way here.

"Senior Zhou, junior Chen Xingsheng took the liberty of visiting me. I disturbed your cultivation and deserved death."

"But the distribution of interests in Haixuan Temple is, after all, related to the status of my Chen family in the southwest sea and even the vast sea in the next thousand years. I hope that the seniors can understand the anxious mood of the juniors."

Chen Xingsheng's words were so sincere that no one could find anything wrong with them.

In Lushou Hall, Zhou Yiqiao said impatiently.

"I stand for your Chen family. Helping the Chen family seize most of the benefits of Haixuan Temple is really just a matter of moving your legs."

"But you should know why I refused."

He had already done a lot of things for the Chen family in the past two days, and it wouldn't be difficult for them to come forward to frighten the other major families.

But the mistake was that the Chen family was so smart that they exposed his existence without his consent.

If this were in Yanzhou or Yongzhou, Zhou Yiqiao would have completely wiped out the Chen family from this world. The reason for his repeated forbearance was just because he missed Brother Chen Tianyou who had just arrived in the Chen family's land. We just don't want them to lose their support in the future.

Outside the Lushou Hall, Chen Xingsheng grabbed the ground with his head and kept begging.

Naturally, he heard the whole story from Zhou Yiqiao's answer.

"The junior and the third uncle were obsessed with each other for a while and got carried away for the benefit of the family, so they had the audacity to borrow the reputation of the senior."

"This junior is willing to commit suicide after this to apologize, in order to appease senior's unhappiness!"

"But after all, the resources of Haixuan Temple are related to the future of my Chen family. We have no other choice, so we made this move. I also ask Senior Zhou to help my Chen family for the sake of my Chen family. Just once!”

At this point, Chen Xingsheng's forehead was already bleeding.

But he still seemed unaware, looking eagerly at the closed door in front of him, for fear that the other party would not give him a chance.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps.

Chen Xingsheng looked up and found that Zhou Yiqiao had opened the door of Lushou Hall and walked out.

Joy quickly appeared on his face, and he knelt in front of Zhou Yiqiao and kowtowed as if pounding garlic.

Zhou Yiqiao glanced at Chen Xingsheng who was kneeling on the ground.

"That's all, for the sake of brother Chen Tianyou and his family being kind to me, I will help your Chen family one more time."

Chen Xingsheng was also a good person, so he stood up immediately to make sure.

"Senior Zhou, don't worry. That kid Ah Fu is very talented and smart in his behavior. Both this junior and my third uncle like him very much."

"Now that it's over, this junior will let Ah Fu enter my Chen family's genealogy and become a direct disciple of my Chen family."

After hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao's expression finally relaxed.

He waved his hand, and a breeze enveloped Chen Xingsheng, pulling him away and disappearing. The next moment, he appeared in front of the Chen family's meeting hall.

In the meeting hall, due to Chen Xingsheng's sudden departure, the third master of the Chen family was now one against four and had long been at a disadvantage.

After the red-haired old man was silent for a moment, he once again struggled with several other ancestors of the Jindan family and continued to put pressure on the third master of the Chen family.

"Old Gou Chen, do you, the Chen family, really think that we are soft persimmons who can be manipulated as you please?"

"If you, the Chen family, can't give us an explanation today, don't blame us for ignoring the sentiments of the Centennial Alliance!"

Faced with the aggressiveness of several major families, the third master of the Chen family gritted his teeth and persisted.

The ancestors of several major families have clearly united at this moment. Now there is no other way but to beg Chen Xingsheng to invite Zhou Yiqiao as he wishes.

"Didn't the ancestor of the Chen family already say that I ordered them to do this?"

At this moment, a cold word sounded in the field, causing the red-faced old men to stop.

When everyone heard the sound and looked around, they saw a young man in white robe standing at the door of the meeting hall with his hands behind his hands, looking down at the ancestors of the major families present.

"Now that I am here in person, do you still have any objections?"

Zhou Yiqiao got straight to the point and didn't give these ancestors any face.

The appearance of Zhou Yiqiao immediately changed the situation in the meeting hall.

The third master of the Chen family, who was originally at a disadvantage, seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw at this moment, and his expression immediately became unruly.
