Everyone’s thoughts were very simple: this incident was caused by the grandson of you, Patriarch Chen. The current plight of the Chen Family is the result of Chen Benhong provoking Su Yang.
Since that is the case, as the Family Head of the Chen Family and as Chen Benhong’s grandfather, you are responsible for bearing this matter. It is only right for you to co forward and apologize!
Su Yang smiled faintly and said loudly, "Patriarch Chen, why don’t you make a choice? Will you co out and apologize to resolve this matter, or should we exterminate all the high-ranking mbers of your Chen Family? Or perhaps, we should just fight to the end; after all, we are outnumbered, and in the end, maybe one or two from the Chen Family might survive. Who knows, after a few hundred years, you might rise again!"
The faces of the Chen Family mbers turned even uglier, as Su Yang was essentially implying that if it ca to a fight, the Chen Family would definitely be done for. However, they had to admit that this was indeed the reality!
The gazes of everyone towards the Family Head Chen beca more urgent. Now, the only way to salvage the Chen Family was for the Patriarch Chen to co out and apologize. At this ti, why was Patriarch Chen still not willing to step forward?
At this mont, the looks in the eyes of the people when they gazed at Patriarch Chen had already beco sowhat filled with disappointnt.
Family Head Chen sighed once more; he knew that he could not escape this catastrophe.
"Enough!" Patriarch Chen said in a deep voice: "Su Yang, I choose the first thod. I apologize to you, and let this matter rest!"
Su Yang looked at Patriarch Chen: "Alright, then kneel down first!"
Patriarch Chen beca furious and said sternly: "Su Yang, you initially only ntioned an apology..."
"I’ve changed my mind, didn’t you hear?" Su Yang said coldly: "Are you deaf, or a fool? Can’t you understand what people are saying?"
"You..." Patriarch Chen was extrely angry and glared at Su Yang.
"What ’you’? Say it," Su Yang cut in directly: "If you are unwilling to apologize, then hurry up and roll back. Either let the high ranking mbers of your Chen Family die or let’s continue the fight. Why all this nonsense?"
Patriarch Chen shuddered with rage, but now he truly had no way out.
This ti, as a family head, he definitely couldn’t keep his position.
But without apologizing, not to ntion not being able to be the family head anymore, even the people of his lineage would beco sinners of the Chen Family.
After much deliberation, Patriarch Chen gritted his teeth and said: "Su Yang, I am the Family Head of the Chen Family; it’s impossible for to kneel. If I kneel, it would an that the entire Chen Family has knelt down..."
"Otherwise, why do you think I want you to kneel?" Su Yang interrupted him directly: "Behind , which one hasn’t been ruined by your Chen Family? Forcing the entire Chen Family to kneel, what about it? Do you want to change again? Your kneeling alone is useless; it will take the apology of the entire Chen Family to settle this. How about that?"
"Patriarch Chen!" exclaid Su Yang, "Don’t push people too far!"
"Kill!" Su Yang didn’t bother with words and simply gestured with his hand.
The expressions of the Chen Family mbers changed drastically, and Patriarch Chen’s face twitched. Wasn’t Su Yang being too domineering, ready to start fighting at the drop of a hat without the slightest room for negotiation?
"Wait!" Patriarch Chen shouted urgently.
Su Yang waved his hand, looking at Patriarch Chen: "What, have you thought it through?"
Patriarch Chen swept his gaze across the mbers of the Chen Family and said through clenched teeth: "I realize I am incapable of being the Chen Family Head, so, effective imdiately, I resign from the position of the Chen Family Head!"
The whole place was in uproar, people were left speechless, Patriarch Chen was too shaless. At this mont, he was actually resigning from the position of the family head, in essence, unwilling to kneel and apologize. At this ti, whoever beca the family head, wouldn’t they have to kneel and apologize?
Chen Jiu was also agitated: "You... how could you..."
Patriarch Chen said very decisively: "Another more capable person should be selected; I can’t be the family head!"
The Chen Family mbers beca anxious, and their eyes looking at Patriarch Chen were also filled with contempt. When it was ti to enjoy the benefits of being a family head, you were always at the forefront. Now that it was ti for you to act, you chose to run away, how could soone be so shaless?
Just then, Su Yang laughed: "That’s perfect if you are no longer the family head; then I won’t slap the Chen Family’s face. Co, I’ll still have you kneel and bow to apologize, and we’ll let this matter rest, alright? That way, it won’t be slapping the face of the entire Chen Family, and I’ve given you enough respect!"
The Chen Family mbers were about to curse out loud, but upon hearing Su Yang’s words, they burst into laughter.
Do you think you can run, Patriarch Chen? He’s making you kneel no matter what; can you still escape?
Chen Jiu also laughed, and said leisurely to Patriarch Chen: "Third Uncle, please bear with it. For the sake of the Chen Family, we hope you can make this sacrifice!"
Patriarch Chen’s face turned livid with rage as he glared at Su Yang: "Su Yang, are you deliberately targeting ?"
"That’s right!" Su Yang smiled faintly: "I am deliberately targeting you. So, will you kneel or not? If you don’t want to kneel, the people of the Chen Family can kill you right here, and then this matter can be concluded!"
Patriarch Chen’s face turned even uglier. Su Yang’s words were simply sowing discord. The situation just now had already placed him on the opposite side of the people of the Chen Family. Now, he even had to face the possibility of being killed by the mbers of the Chen Family.
Looking at the expressions of the Chen Family mbers, Patriarch Chen had no doubt that if he didn’t do as Su Yang said, the people of the Chen Family might really kill him!
"Su surna!" Patriarch Chen shouted: "This is you taking personal revenge! You have a vendetta against my grandson, and you want to use this incident to humiliate solely. Humph, I’m no longer the Family Head, what significance does my apology hold? Don’t you even consider those behind you? They need the Family Head’s apology, not mine!"
Patriarch Chen had no option left, so he tried this thod of sowing discord, to first divide Su Yang and those from the dungeon.
"If I tell you to kneel, you kneel. What’s with all this pointless talk!" The burly man beside Su Yang was the first to start cursing: "Today you kneel, and it doesn’t an our grievances are settled. We will still be enemies with the Chen Family, and I will still take your lives for revenge. Your kneeling is just to conclude this matter tonight; I also want to go out and have a good al!"
"That’s right, this is only for tonight’s matter to end, not for everything to end. What are you fussing about!" another one shouted loudly.
"There’s no need for those divisive words. Our lives were saved by Mr. Su; whatever he says goes!"
"You’ve been the family head for nearly forty years; most of us were caught during your tenure, and all orders were personally given by you. If not you, who else kneels?"
