Elf's hand

Seeing Chu Haoren's calm and courteous performance, Chu Xingyan stroked his sparse beard with only a few strands left, and nodded appreciatively, "Chu Haoren, you are the fifth person in the history of the Chu family to be able to enter the Chu family at the age of sixteen. The first four disciples of the ancestral hall have all created extraordinary achievements and made outstanding contributions to our Chu family. I hope you will follow their example in the future, honor your ancestors, and revitalize the Chu family."

Chu Xingyan is the only remaining senior member of the Chu family. He praised Chu Haoren as soon as he came up and set the tone for the high-level meeting with Chu Haoren today. At this time, no one dared to say anything.

"Thank you, Supreme Elder, for your appreciation. Chu Haoren will definitely live up to the family's expectations." Chu Haoren said neither humble nor overbearing.

Chu Xingyan saw it and felt happy in his heart. This boy was neither excited and overjoyed nor lost his sense of proportion, nor was he as arrogant and arrogant as Chu Yitian back then, which was really rare.

"cough……"

At this time, the patriarch Chu Yihong said loudly: "Chu Haoren's performance has been witnessed by everyone in the family. The main reason for calling everyone here today is to settle the incident that year and make a decision for the future of the family. "

In an instant, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a little solemn, and even Chu Xuanying, who had always been casual and unruly, became a little solemn.

Chu Haoren felt a little weird. What made these dozens of strong warriors from the Chu family so nervous?

Chu Yihong looked at Chu Haoren with complicated eyes and said slowly: "That incident back then had a great impact on our Chu family. More than ten years have passed, and it is time for this incident to come to an end. Let our Chu family , truly walked out of Chuxiang Town."

Chu Xingyan turned to Chu Yihong and said slowly: "Chu Yitian is a disciple of my lineage. It's up to me to explain it to him."

Chu Yihong nodded.

"Chu Haoren, everyone here knows exactly how you have been living these years, but we have not done anything for you, and we even deliberately made things difficult for you at certain times. You must also have resentment towards your family." Chu Xingyan looked at Chu Haoren and said in a calm voice.

Chu Haoren's expression moved slightly and he said calmly: "Excuse me, what does the Supreme Elder want to say?"

"What I want to say is, what is your attitude towards the family now after you have suffered for so many years because of your father."

Chu Xingyan's inquiry actually represents the intention of the entire Chu family's senior management. They must understand this before considering Chu Haoren as a key training target.

In fact, the investigation of Chu Haoren has been carried out secretly for a long time. It is clear what his character is. Now it is just a routine to show off in front of the senior officials.

Chu Haoren paused and said calmly: "Since my surname is Chu, I am a member of the Chu family. As long as the family gives me a reasonable explanation, the past events can be written off. As for my attitude towards the family in the future, it depends on the family." Attitude towards me. My family regards me as a relative, and I regard my family as a relative. If my family has prejudices against me and is wary of me, then I will treat my family in the same way."

Chu Xingyan nodded slowly, and Chu Haoren's answer did not exceed his expectations, "There are many reasons for your father's matter, and I can't explain it at the moment. To put it simply, your father was the hope of our Chu family back then. The family did a lot to train him. Of course, your father also made some contributions to revitalizing the family. However, because his cultivation was too smooth, he began to become arrogant and self-reliant. He did not know the importance of his actions and killed many Xiaos and severely injured them. The fighting spirit masters of the Jiahe Mercenary Group, especially..."

Speaking of this, Chu Xingyan's skinny face looked a little helpless, "He actually injured the then lord of Uli City, humiliated the royal Lin family, angered the king, and almost expelled my Chu family from Jiangnan Kingdom."

Injuring the city lord?

No matter how mentally prepared Chu Haoren was, he couldn't help but be stunned and speechless, and his heart was shocked. The city lord must be a strong man at the level of a general, and he must be a member of the Jiangnan royal family. This... No wonder the Chu family has been stuck in its own way for so many years. , limiting the power to Chuxiang Town.

Chu Yitian, Chu Yitian, is indeed a madman, this is causing big trouble!

"In order to preserve the family, we had to make up our minds and personally send him to the capital to receive the harshest sanctions. However, Chu Yitian was too strong. He actually escaped from the prison, broke into the palace, and injured many people. A strong man, and publicly announced his separation from the family in front of countless people."

While Chu Xingyan was talking about this period of history in a deep tone, the Chu family members in the hall fell into silence, as if they were all immersed in memories.

Chu Haoren was also silent, but his mood was different from the others. He was a little more curious about this father he had never met.

"You should know what the consequences will be if you offend the royal family. Although the incident was finally settled, the family is not willing to be suspected by the royal family, which is why it treats you like this."

Chu Haoren nodded lightly, "I understand, you don't want to attract the attention of the royal family, and I can't practice fighting spirit, so you took the opportunity to throw me in the corner, but you didn't expect that I would suddenly change so much, and even seize the opportunity." Won the first place in the competition among the children, and once again attracted the attention of the royal family."

"You are different from your father, which is why the family decided to train you after intense discussions. We hope that you can learn from your father's lessons and lead the family to a real rise." Chu Xing said seriously.

Chu Haoren smiled slightly, "The Supreme Elder's words seem to think highly of me!"

"Haha~"

Chu Xingyan's laughter echoed throughout the hall, "I know exactly what you said in front of Xuan Huan, and I believe in my own vision."

"Hehe, Chu Haoren, since the Supreme Elder said this, what else can you be humble about? The future of the Chu family depends on you, and I am optimistic about it!" At this time, Chu Xuanying suddenly sat upright. He stood up and said to Chu Haoren with a smile.

Damn, this old guy really knows how to join in the fun. Why do you feel like this old guy is behind it every time?

Chu Haoren glared at Chu Xuanying with a wry smile, pondered for a moment, and then said seriously: "Since the family has given me such a heavy responsibility, I, Chu Haoren, will take it."

hum~

Countless whispers suddenly rang out in the quiet hall. This Chu Haoren was only a sixteen-year-old boy. Although Chu Xingyan was optimistic about him, the top brass of the Chu family also had different opinions. He actually accepted it without any hesitation. Got it!

Chu Yihong glanced helplessly at Chu Xuanying who was gloating about his misfortune, then glanced at Chu Xingyan who was full of admiration, and finally shook his head and sighed.

"Everyone be quiet."

With the voice of the patriarch Chu Yihong, the hall returned to silence again. Chu Yihong's eyes were like daggers, he looked directly at Chu Haoren and said solemnly: "Revitalizing the Chu family is not a joke, Chu Haoren , although you have made many creations in the field of anthers and have high talents in cultivation, the development of the entire family..."

As the leader of the clan, Chu Yihong considers all aspects and is well aware of the difficulty involved.

Chu Haoren raised his head and said: "Clan leader, the elders of the family must already know that I became a pharmacist and was hired as a pharmacist by the Shengmei Chamber of Commerce!"

Chu Yihong did not blame him for interrupting, and nodded: "Yes, we also know that Mei Ya'er gave you a card to show off. Although this will allow you to get a lot of benefits from the Shengmei Chamber of Commerce for your family, it is not enough. .”

"As long as I am here, the family will be able to receive a steady stream of help from the Shengmei Chamber of Commerce. I can guarantee this. In addition, the anther business is not just as simple as treating diseases and injuries of flowers." Chu Haoren was confident, He said calmly.

Hearing this, Chu Yihong couldn't help but lean forward a little, as if he was listening attentively. Everyone else also looked at Chu Haoren curiously.

"After my transformation, the anthers can also produce special changes in plants, thereby providing help for people's food, clothing, housing, transportation, fighting, etc. Such medicines are collectively called Miaoshou Dan. Now, let you meet me The results!"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Chu Haoren calmly grabbed a handful of rice-sized seeds from the medicine bag and scattered them on the ground casually. Then he took out a medicine bottle and sprayed some medicine on the seeds.

What is this little guy going to do?

Are we treating the ancestral hall as a farmland and garden?

All the senior members of the Chu family looked at Chu Haoren with strange eyes. Seeing his behavior, they were both amused and curious.

Chu Haoren smiled faintly and waited patiently. After a minute, he saw that the seeds began to take root and sprout, and grew rapidly. In just a few seconds, a half-human line was formed in front of Chu Haoren. Tall thorn vines.

While everyone was stunned, Chu Haoren took out another bottle of potion and sprinkled it on the thorns and vines.

Then, the half-human-high thorn vines quickly expanded, and the finger-thick vines became as thick as an arm in an instant. The vines were intricately tangled together, forming a thorn vine wall more than two meters high. There are sharp thorns sprouting from the body...

This strange change only happened in a short period of time!

The top brass of the Chu family were all shocked!
