Chapter 14: Immortal and Devil Pool
Inside the field, Chen Tianhu arrived at the side of the injured Chen Haohai and Chen Yihan. Facing them he said “You and I were all competing for the Patriarch's position. I did not hope to end it such a way! We are Chen Family members and we should all be united. If you refuse to accept me as your Patriarch, you can take your followers and leave the Chen Family.
Chen Haohai and Chen Yihan both glanced at each other before looking towards Chen Xiang and heaving heavy sighs.
Chen Haohai firmly grasped Chen Tianhu’s arm. With a heavy tone he said, “I hope you can lead the Chen Family. I, Chen Haohai, have lived as a Chen Family member and even after death I will become a Chen Family ghost! I, Chen Haohai, am sincerely convinced by the new Patriarch!”
Chen Haohai and Chen Yihan were not fools. They had gained insight on how frightening Chen Xiang’s potential is. If he is cultivated well, soon he will have very good chances to become a fierce alchemist. If you could build a good relation now, you can reap the benefits later. It is not wise to offend a top-level alchemist, plus, Chen Tianhu was now letting go of all the past enmities, which is good thing for them.
“Two seniors, for the previous offences please forgive me. For our Chen Family to survive in these lands for many years, we must not have internal strife.” Chen Xiang gave his apologies after arriving in front of Chen Haohai and Chen Yihan.
Chen Xiang’s statements and actions caused many Chen Family children and elders to secretly nod in approval. Although at such a young age he had already defeated a formidable Elder, he was not proud, but actually very modest. This kind of subtlety is quite rare among many of the Chen Family juniors.
The Chen brothers were also somewhat ashamed.
“My dear nephew, first go and recuperate! Dragging the injuries for a long time can be detrimental to future cultivation.” Chen Yihan said, while passing some of his healing dans.
For the the Elder Competition to reach such a conclusion, made the other Elders quite satisfied.
An Elder with a clear and resonant voice said “Ladies and Gentlemen, the banquet will take place after ten days, but I also request for everyone to stay after as well. By that time, many other families will have sent someone to participate. At that point, it would be a good opportunity for you to make friends with the other families.”

Chen Xian returned to his room. While looking at his scarred body, he could not help but let loose a deep breath. Just before, his fight with Chen Yihan was very dangerous. Yet at this moment, his mind was excited because at the 5th Level of the Mortal Martial Realm, he has the strength to defeat someone at the 7th Level of the Mortal Martial Realm!
After giving his all in the previous fight, he also felt like his power level had somewhat increased. He had gained a lot of experience in utilizing Qi. No wonder he had heard that in order to become a powerful martial artist, one needed to go through numerous battles.
Just as Chen Xiang was about to take the healing pills, two auras reflected onto his eyes. He blinked, only to see Bai Youyou and Su Meiyao with straight faces standing right in front of him.
“You brat! Just a moment ago, you were too rash, what would we do if you had died? We have poured too much effort into your body!” shouted Bai Youyou with a cold expression. Chen Xiang felt a cold chill running down his spine.
Su Meiyao stuck her tongue out and said “After considering the circumstance, devilish brat, you were somewhat courageous. This time, we will let you off the hook! However, next time you must be cautious! Take off your clothes, I will help you apply the ointments.
During Chen Xiang and Chen Yihan’s battle, his body was covered in many cuts due to the Icy True Aura. His body was covered in numerous bloodstains. If it was not specially treated, it would be harder to heal.
Thus, Chen Xiang was now lying on his bed enjoying the soft and tender hands of Su Meiyao applying some ointments, which made him feel very comfortable…
In accordance with custom, the other families were invited to celebrate the newly elected Chen Family Patriarch. However, it takes quite some time for the other families to arrive, so the actual celebration is held sometime later.
