The knowledge flashed through my mind.

As the patriarch of the Chen family, his realm is only the blood coagulation realm. It can be imagined that the Chen family is indeed a small family.

"What are the casualties today?"

Chen Xingzhen asked slowly.

"Clan leader Hui, five members of the family were seriously injured today, and ten were slightly injured. The second uncle Chen Tianyu was injured in the arm, and the third uncle Chen Tianjing also suffered some internal injuries and is recovering. I am afraid that the two of them will not be able to exert their strength in the blood coagulation realm. In addition..."

"well!"

Listening to Chen Qingyu's story, Chen Xingzhen sighed.

There are a total of five blood coagulation realm warriors in the family. One of them was lost in the previous battle with the Li family. Now the other two have been injured. If this continues, the decline of the Chen family is a foregone conclusion.

If some changes are not made, the Chen family may be eliminated!

Thinking of this, Chen Xingzhen's eyes gradually became firm, as if he had made a decision that went against his ancestors! Then he said to Chen Qingyu:

"Let us inform you that the younger generation of the family will all be transferred out through the secret passage tomorrow!"

After saying this, Chen Xingzhen seemed to be much older.

Chen Qingyu was stunned when he heard this, and then said in surprise:

"Where are the others?"

Chen Xingzhen shook his head:

"Others and the Li family should prepare for a decisive battle! Even if they die, they will not make it easier for the Li family!"

Listening to Chen Xingzhen's decision, Chen Qingyu lowered his head silently. In fact, he had already guessed this result, so he was not surprised at this time.

But he still found it difficult to accept such a result.

But he also understands that it is good for the family to keep the younger generation now.

If everyone leaves through the secret passage, the Li family will probably soon find that it will be difficult to escape.

"You are the strongest member of the Qing family in the family, so let's go together! As long as there are still people in our Chen family, we will still have a chance to make a comeback!"

"I'm not leaving! I'm staying too!"

Chen Qingyu did not hesitate after hearing this and said decisively.

The family is no match for the Li family. If he leaves, the family will have no hope at all!

"well!"

Chen Xingzhen sighed again, but didn't say much.

The two of them looked at the memorial tablet above the ancestral hall and were silent for a long time.

Chen Qingyu looked away, and at this moment, out of the corner of her eye, she saw the family sacred tree on the side!

The moment she looked at the family sacred tree, Chen Qingyu seemed to have remembered something, and there was a hint of disgust in her originally peaceful eyes!

Thinking of the family's recent situation, Chen Qingyu picked up an ax from the corner of the ancestral hall and walked towards Ji Yang menacingly.

Ji Yang, who had been observing the two people, also noticed Chen Qingyu's movements at this time. After seeing Chen Qingyu walking towards him with an axe, Ji Yang had a bad premonition in his heart and shouted in his heart:

"What are you going to do?"

"Don't come over here!"

It's a pity that Ji Yang's words were not conveyed!

Chen Qingyu quickened his pace and soon arrived in front of Ji Yang.

Seeing Chen Qingyu holding the ax high with both hands, he was about to chop it down.

At this time, Chen Xingzhen on the side hurriedly scolded:

"Stop, what are you going to do?"

Chen Qingyu, who heard the scolding, moved his hand, but did not put down the axe. Instead, he said in a dissatisfied tone:

"Of course I'll cut down this useless tree!"

Chen Xingzhen immediately said angrily:

"Don't be rude! This is the family's sacred tree! Why don't you kowtow and apologize!"

"Apologise? It's just a tree. Now that the family is about to be exterminated, who cares whether it is a sacred tree or not? This tree has been planted in the family ancestral hall for many years, and the amount of animal blood dedicated to it is not less. Why can't we see it? Showing divine power? What kind of sacred tree is this?"

"Since the family can't save it, what's the use of keeping this broken tree? Why don't I chop it down and use it as firewood to cook a meal for my clan members!"

Ji Yang, who was silent on the side, was thoughtful after hearing this.

Listening to what he said, it seemed to make sense!

But after thinking of his current identity, Ji Yang shook his head repeatedly in his heart!

"I am the sacred tree of my family! You rebellious son!"

Chen Qingyu's resentful words made Chen Xingzhen sigh:

"well!"

"Now that things have happened, I will not hide it from you. In fact, our Chen family was also an extremely glorious family in the past. However, we were defeated in the family fight and then lived here. This is how the Chen family became today. !”

"My Chen family worships our ancestors, and the secret method of preserving our ancestors' bodies and combat prowess comes from this!"

"And this sacred tree is the fire that the family managed to save back then. If the family wants to grow stronger, it must rely on the sacred tree! The power of the sacred tree cannot be achieved by human beings. This is what my Chen family has been doing for the past twenty years. The reason why I keep worshiping this tree.”

Listening to Chen Xingzhen's story, Chen Qingyu slowly put down the ax in his hand, but still frowned and said:

"But Patriarch, you have also seen that this sacred tree has looked like this twenty years ago. After worshiping it for twenty years, has there been any change?"

“It’s okay not to want this kind of sacred tree!”

"Don't talk nonsense. As long as I am still the clan leader, the sacred tree cannot be cut off! As long as the sacred tree is still there, there is hope for the family!"

Seeing that his persuasion was ineffective, Chen Xingzhen brought up the name of the clan leader, which made Chen Qingyu's face turn red and he hesitated to speak, but in the end he was defeated by Chen Xingzhen's majestic face.

"I'm going to check on my second uncle!"

After saying that, Chen Qingyu opened the door and left!

Looking at Chen Qingyu's back as he left, Chen Xingzhen slowly walked to the main courtyard of the ancestral hall, looked up at the dry family tree in front of him, with a trace of disappointment in his eyes, and whispered in a low voice:

"Am I wrong?"

"But if there is no tree, won't the family never get ahead?"

Recalling the fact that the family has sacrificed a lot of animal corpses in the past 20 years.

The key is that the blood and qi of the sacrificed animal corpses are lost, not only can't the family warriors temper their bodies, but even the meat becomes hard, like chewing wax, and it is difficult to swallow.

Maybe he was really wrong. In the past 20 years, the family has spent too much energy for this tree.

Chen Xingzhen was silent for a long time, and left the ancestral hall under the endless night, but his back was hunched a lot silently.

After Chen Xingzhen left, Ji Yang, who had been listening to the conversation between the two in the ancestral hall, also sighed in his heart.

It is indeed difficult for him to turn a blind eye to the sacrifices of twenty years, but he did not eat any of them!

According to the incomplete memories in his mind, the Li family did not have a totem, otherwise the Chen family would not have lasted so long.

In other words, after the demise of the Chen family, there is a high probability that he can survive.

He lamented the current situation of the Chen family, but he also had to consider his own survival.

The collision between reason and reality, and the interweaving of inner emotions, made Ji Yang fall into deep thought for a while.
