“I didn’t. I definitely won’t let Qingya down.”Zhou Tianli said excitedly.
“It’s good that you didn’t.”
Li Kehua glanced at Zhou Tianli and said,””I know what you’re thinking. You just don’t want to marry into my Li family. After all, you have an aristocratic family behind you.”
“However, 1 hope you can remember that everything Qingya has is given to her by the Li family. One day, when the Li family needs you to fight, you can’t refuse.”
“Otherwise, it will be considered a betrayal of the Li family. You should know what happens to traitors without me telling you.”
Zhou Tianli nodded,” Don’t worry, if the Li family needs me, 1 will definitely fight.”
“That’s good. You know how talented Qing Ya is. You’ve also broken through and entered the stage. On account of you, the family’s restrictions on Qing Ya’s resources are not so severe.”
“It won’t take long for Qingya to break through and enter the stage. At that time, you can reunite.”Li Ke said.
Hearing this, Zhou Tianli’s eyes were filled with excitement.” Thank you, Lord Tai Shan.””
“You don’t have to thank me. You’ve done well. You were able to break through the restrictions of the lack of resources, so the family’s opinion of you will definitely rise to a higher level.”Li Ke said.
Zhou Tianli looked at Yang Chen gratefully.
He knew his own situation. If it wasn’t for Yang Chen, he probably wouldn’t have been able to break through to the stage even in his dreams.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them had eased up, Chen Yang smiled and looked at Li Kehua.” Elder Li, may I know why you’re here?”
“Elder Li Kezhao is dead. According to the informant, he died at your hands. Let me ask you, is this true?”Li Kehua asked.
When Yang Chen heard this, he looked at Zhou Tianli in confusion. Seeing that Zhou Tianli was also shocked, he immediately said,””I’m innocent! When did we kill Elder Li Kezhao?”
Seeing that their expressions did not seem to be fake, Li Ke said,””This matter has yet to be concluded, so the Li family has decided to leave this matter to you to investigate.”
“This is also a test for you by the Li family. Please, the Chen family must grasp it.”
“Test? What test?” Yang Chen was a little confused. He had no contact with the Li family, so why would they give him the test?
“Naturally, it is a test to become a vassal of my Li family.”Li Kehua said lightly. “Vassal?”
Yang Chen’s heart skipped a beat and he asked,””Elder Li, what do you mean?”
“I don’t know if the Chen Clan Leader has heard of the literal meaning. A man who is innocent will be punished for his wealth. It is a great crime for your Chen Clan to have a puppet that can ascend the stage.”
“Originally, the clan wanted you to hand over the puppet.”
“However, considering your relationship with Justice, 1 decided to persuade the clan not to accept your puppet.”
“It’s fortunate that Justice and Qing Ya have outstanding talents. After considering everything, the clan head has decided to let you keep this puppet.
However, as compensation, your Chen family will become a vassal of my Li family.”
“This is also an honor for your Chen family. After all, only a Rank-6 force can become a vassal of my Li family.”
“On the other hand, my Li family has already acknowledged your Chen family as a sixth rank force. This is of great benefit to the development of your Chen family.”
Yang Chen’s heart was burning with anger. From what Li Kehua said, the Chen family had become a vassal of the Li family, and they still had to thank the Li family.
What logic was this?
However, Yang Chen decided to endure it for now. It was just a vassal, so he would just be one. Anyway, there was no loss to the Chen family.
“Since the Li family favors you, I’m willing to accept your orders.” Yang Chen said with a smile.”
Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Li Kehua’s face.” 1 am very pleased that the Chen Family Head is able to distinguish right from wrong and knows when to retreat.”
“Of course, since the Chen family has become a vassal of my Li family, there are some rules that the Chen family has to abide by.”
“Elder Li, please speak.”
“This is also the rule that all the vassal families have to follow. If my Li family has a war with other forces, you have to listen to my Li family’s orders.”
“For the other factions, this recruitment is only for the mighty figures who have ascended the stage.”
“However, your Chen Clan doesn’t have any mighty figures on stage, so the target of the conscription is your Chen Clan’s puppet.”
Yang Chen didn’t object to this, nor was he surprised.
After all, according to the rules passed down since ancient times, it was very normal to recruit the experts of the vassal forces.
See Chen Yang no object object Li burn continue say carry Li home condition, this second condition, that is you Chen family want to use puppet, must get me Li home agreement.”
“What?”
Yang Chen suddenly stood up and narrowed his eyes,””Elder Li, isn’t this condition a little too much?”
“I’ve never heard of any other subordinate forces of the Li family needing the approval of the Li family to use their ancestor.”
“Moreover, if the enemy were to invade, and 1 had to obtain the approval of the Li Clan before 1 could use the puppet, then before the news of the Li Clan could reach us, my Chen Clan would probably be wiped out.”
“Don’t worry, Chen Clan Leader.”
Li Kezhao pressed his hand down, and a terrifying spiritual energy instantly enveloped Yang Chen, pressing him down on the chair.
Fortunately, Li Kezhao did not intend to move. Although the spiritual energy was terrifying, it did not cause any damage to Yang Chen.
Seeing this, Yang Chen sat on the chair and listened to Li Kehua’s explanation. “If your Chen family has enemies attacking your doorstep, then you naturally have to prioritize self-preservation. You don’t have to listen to my Li family’s orders.”
“My Li family has also considered this point. At this time, we will not force your Chen family to listen to my Li family’s orders.”
“As for the problem you mentioned earlier, special matters need special treatment. We are also thinking for your Chen family.”
“Your Chen Clan is only as strong as an eighth rank force without the puppets. If you use the power of the puppets, you can suppress the other forces in every possible way.”
“The consequences of provoking a powerful enemy are not something that a puppet can resolve.”
“The other factions can use their ancestors as they please because their remaining strength far exceeds that of a rank-7 faction.”
“This is the confidence of others, and this confidence is something that your Chen family doesn’t have.”
Yang Chen smiled when he heard Li Ke’s words.
What a tyrannical Li Clan. If the Chen Clan wanted to use the puppets, they would need the Li Clan’s approval. What was the difference between this and the Li Clan taking away the puppets?
“What, Chen Clan Leader is unwilling?” Li Kehua looked at Yang Chen and sighed,””! know that the Chen Clan Leader is definitely dissatisfied, but this is the greatest concession this old man can make.”
“I hope that the Chen Clan Master will take into account that the development of the clan is not easy and not forcefully defy the heavens.”
Hearing this, Yang Chen took a deep breath and smiled,”Thank you, Elder Ke Mu. My Chen family agrees to this condition.”
“That’s good. Oh right, if my Li family wants to recruit puppets, you can’t object.
But don’t worry, with me around, they won’t casually recruit puppets.”Li Kehua added..
