Chapter 172 - 172: The Adventures of Chen Tao
“And guest, when you speak in Chen City, when you talk about Lord Chen Yang, you must use the honorific title, or you will be beaten.”
“Beaten?” Chen Tao was furious.” Did the Chen family order you to do this?”
“Of course not.”
The shop assistant’s eyes were filled with yearning.” This is our own initiative. Under the rule of Lord Chen Yang, life in Chen City has changed with each passing day.”
“Our standard of living is constantly improving. I dare say that even the capital is not necessarily better than Chen City.”
“Now, when we Chen Cheng people go out, we are existences that are admired and envied by others. All of this credit is attributed to Lord Chen Yang.”
“Now, Lord Chen Yang is no different from a god in our hearts.”
“If you don’t respect Lord Chen Yang in Chen City, someone will definitely teach you a lesson.”
Chen Tao’s heart ached. It has only been a few years, and you’ve already forgotten that I’m the person you respect the most.
“Buddy, can you tell me how the Chen family rose to power? I left Feng City…No, he had left Chen City for too long and did not understand the situation there.”
When the waiter heard this, he placed the rag on his shoulder and sat beside Chen Tao. He patted Chen Tao’s shoulder and said,”The rise of the Chen family is truly an epic.”
“I remember that when Lord Chen Yang took over the Chen family, the Chen family had nothing. The Meridian Opening Ancestor, the Demon General, and the subdued beasts were all thoughts that could only be felt in a dream.”
“I was still young at that time. I heard from my father that the Chen family was bullied by the Gongsun family.”
When Chen Tao heard this, his heart tightened. He seemed to have seen the Chen family’s most difficult time.” What happened after that?”
“After that?”
“Later, when Lord Chen Yang took over the Chen family, he first found a Howling Moon Wolf and offered it to the Beast Tamer Sect to resolve the Chen family’s siege.”
“In less than two years, the Gongsun family suppressed the Chen family and planned to trap the Chen family in Chen City.”
“I remember back then, many people were panicking, thinking that Chen City would soon be divided up by the three aristocratic families.”
“Then, Lord Chen Yang used the strategy of alliance to resist Lian Heng, contacted the Li family and the Mo family, instigated the Feng family to rebel, and successfully destroyed the Gongsun family in the Endless Mountain Range!”
“Good!”
Listening to the waiter’s description, Chen Tao felt his blood boil and could not help but slam the table.
After a while, Chen Tao reacted and wiped away the tea that had spilled out of the teacup in embarrassment.
The waiter didn’t feel anything about this. After all, this wasn’t the first time.
This incident was even filmed into a play. Which performance did not make the audience’s blood boil?
It was a pity that the actor could never act like Chen Yang.
This was understandable. After all, Lord Chen Yang was an immortal who had descended to the mortal world. Naturally, he was not someone ordinary people could act out.
After wiping the tea, Chen Tao continued to ask,” Then, what happened?”
“After that, it was even more exciting. The demon tide was in chaos, and Lord Chen Yang led the people of Chen City to resist the demon tide.”
“Using the treasures found in the demon tide, I nurtured Lord Chen Yang’s natal subdued beast, Lord Winged Tiger, to the late-stage demon general realm and successfully repelled the demon tide.”
“When the Deshun Commandery Prince was giving out rewards in Yi City, he discovered that Lord Chen Yang had a bloodline and his aptitude was equivalent to a Sixth Stage. He immediately accepted Lord Chen Yang as his disciple.”
“After the famine, Lord Chen Yang cultivated fertilizer and saved the lives of the people of Jiang Prefecture.”
“During this period of time, the Song Clan was in chaos. Lord Chen Yang found evidence of treason and brought the Deshun Commandery Prince to destroy the Song Clan.”
“From this moment on, the rise of the Chen family has become the consensus of everyone.”
“After ten years of stable development, the Chen family finally advanced to Rank-8 more than a month ago! Lord Chen Yang had also become a Core Formation cultivator and was known as the number one monster in Da Qian.”
After listening to the waiter’s explanation, Chen Tao only had one thought in his mind.
Was the legendary founder of the Chen family, Chen Tao, really himself?
Was this Chen family really the Chen family he knew?
Yang Chen, was it really Yang Chen?
With doubts in his mind, Chen Tao did not choose to return to the Chen family. Instead, he continued to stroll around Chen City.
I want to see how far Chen Cheng has developed under your leadership.
This stroll took half a day.
However, Chen Tao was a little disappointed. Although the development was not bad, it was not as strong as the rumors said.
“The New town area is just ahead. 1 hope you can give me a surprise.”
After stepping into the New town area, Chen Tao suddenly heard a tiger roar. Immediately, Chen Tao circulated his spiritual energy and rushed toward the place where the tiger roar sounded.
“Stop, you didn’t buy a ticket. Why are you going in?”
Chen Tao frowned as he looked at the person who stopped him.” A demon beast has barged in. Why are you talking about tickets? Hurry up and save them.””
Chen Tao’s heartfelt words drew a burst of laughter.
“Pfft, where did this country bumpkin come from? He hasn’t even seen a demon beast zoo.”
“You can’t say that. In this world, besides me, Chen Cheng, who else has a demonic beast zoo?”
Even the ticket seller couldn’t help but laugh.” This is your first time in Chen City, right? This is our Chen City’s demonic beast zoo.””
“The demon beasts inside are raised by the Chen family for us to visit and have fun.”
It was over. He had lost face.
“How much is the ticket?” Chen Tao’s face turned red.”
“Not much. Ten great Qian Gold.”
Chen Tao quickly paid the ten Great Qian Gold and entered the zoo.
He was afraid that if he stayed outside, he would be laughed at to death.
Entering the zoo, Chen Tao looked at the demonic beasts that were surrounded by the crowd and felt a myriad of emotions.
He remembered that when the clan was founded, their expressions would change when they talked about demonic beasts. Now, even ordinary people could watch demonic beasts.
Times had changed.
Chen Tao sighed and then left the Demon Beast zoo to continue visiting the New town area.
Looking at the fake mountain furnishings and the wine glasses in the tavern, Chen Tao felt that his decision to hand over the position of the family head to Chen Yang before he left was the best thing he had done in his life.
As he walked, Chen Tao arrived outside the theater. Legend had it that this place recorded the entire process of the Chen family’s rise. Chen Tao wanted to see how the Chen family rose to power.
After paying the Da Qian gold, he entered the drama Academy and started the drama.
Time passed in a flash, and in the blink of an eye, the sky was already dark.
After watching the play for half a day, Chen Tao still left the theater.
It had to be said that the actors in the movie were really good. Chen Tao wished he could step forward and help the Chen family resolve their difficulties.
At the same time, Chen Tao finally understood how much killing intent the Chen family had encountered was hidden in the waiter’s short words.
“We’ve done enough shopping. It’s time to go back.”
Outside Chen City.
Looking at the two words “Chen Manor” on the plaque, Chen Tao suppressed the excitement in his heart and slowly walked forward.
“Stop. This is the Chen family’s land. No one is allowed to enter without permission.”
As expected, the family’s chieftain stopped Chen Tao.
After a day of adventures, Chen Tao was no longer angry. He smiled kindly and said,”Please inform them that Chen Tao is back.”
“Chen Tao?” The guard frowned.” What Chen Tao?”
“It’s the Chen family’s branch opening ancestor, Chen Tao.”Chen Tao kindly reminded him.
When the guard heard this, he glared at him.” How dare you! How dare you impersonate my ancestor!”
“Don’t be anxious, don’t be anxious.”
Chen Tao smiled and released the aura of a peak Meridian Unsealing cultivator. He patted the guard’s shoulder.” I think that instead of being angry with me here, you might as well go and report it.”
The guard felt that Chen Tao’s words made sense. He immediately glanced at his teammate at the side and went to report.
That’s right, what he said made sense. It was not the aura of the peak of Meridian Unsealing.
In the meeting hall.
Chen Yang and Chen Xuan were dealing with family matters when the guard suddenly ran in.” Reporting to the family head, there’s a middle-aged man outside who claims to be our Chen family’s ancestor, Chen Tao.”
“Ancestor?”
Chen Yang and Chen Xuan stood up together. After looking at each other, they jumped out of the meeting hall together.
At the entrance of the manor, after seeing the appearance of the person standing outside the manor, Chen Yang and Chen Xuan ran over together.
Not far away from Chen Tao, he knelt on both knees..”Unfilial descendant Chen Yang (Chen Xuan) greets the ancestor!”
