Su Zhen exuded a mystical aura.
He couldn't explain it clearly.
Long Chen could only feel such a powerless aura from a Samsara Tribulation expert.
For ordinary Nirvana Tribulation experts, under the destruction and rebirth of the Nirvana Tribulation, their strength was manifested in their powerful physique and boundless nirvanic energy. This was a very obvious and wild strength. But for Samsara Tribulation experts, the pressure they brought to Long Chen should be more on their primordial spirit.
The pressure of the primordial spirit.
Under the pressure of Su Zhen's primordial spirit, many dissatisfied branch clan experts all lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
In truth, this itself was a very inappropriate thing to do.
The so-called Blood Descendants of the Gods valued their bloodline the most. In every generation, there would be members of the branch family, and the ancestral family would only have one branch. But this time, Su Zhen had set a precedent, directly allowing outsiders to join the ancestral family and enjoy the power and status of the ancestral family. How could the branch family members be willing to accept this?
Only less than one-tenth of the branch clan's experts were present.
The others didn't come, it could be considered a formless protest against Su Zhen. And those who came were even more anxious for Su Zhen to change his mind.
"Why are you still not scramming?" Su Zhen lightly spoke.
Among the crowd, a long-haired cultivator who looked very old finally mustered his courage and said, "Young City Lord, this matter is of great importance. I hope that Young City Lord can let the City Lord know about it. After all, in the ancestral clan, as long as a new life is born, it has to be tested by him, isn't it?"
Su Zhen didn't bat an eyelid. "This is my matter, it has nothing to do with you. All of you scram."
After these words were spoken, although everyone was enraged, they could only leave their seats. After all, Su Zhen was one of the five people in charge of the War God City. Although there were many people who were older than him and more powerful than him, the will of the ancestral clan could not be resisted by the branch clan. This was a rule that had been passed down since ancient times.
At this moment, a woman dressed in plain clothes walked in.
This woman looked very similar to Su Zhen. She was dressed in blue, and a pair of blue crystal earrings hung from her ears. Her shoulder-length hair made her look valiant and heroic.
Another expert on the same level as Su Zhen, Long Chen thought to himself.
After the short-haired woman walked in, the martial artists of the branch family hurriedly saluted and said, "Greetings, Fifth Young City Lord."
The Martial God Ancient City had a total of five Young City Lords.
Among them, Su Zhen ranked third.
And this woman should be his sister.
Su Yuji also respectfully bowed to the woman and said, "Yuji greets Fifth Aunt."
However, the other party did not care about these people at all. Her gaze landed on Long Chen and she said, "Third Brother, is this the Super Shenron that you mentioned?"
Only when he saw this woman did Su Zhen's brows furrow. He no longer had the dazed look from before. He patted Long Chen's back and said, "Yes."
The woman was silent for a moment and said, "The decision you made is really incomprehensible. This time, Big Brother and Second Brother don't want to pay attention to you at all. I just want to say that even if you decide on your own, he can't be recorded in the family tree. After all, he is not a member of our Su family. In addition, I'm afraid we will not recognize his identity."
If the other four of the Five Young City Lords did not recognize Long Chen's identity, then what was the use of Su Zhen admitting it himself?
The experts of the branch family heaved a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, Su Zhen did not care and said, "Up to you. I have already guessed it. It's fine as long as I admit it myself. All of you can leave."
Seeing that Su Zhen was still unrepentant, the woman said, "Third Brother, I have a good relationship with you. That's why I came to advise you. Don't fall out with other brothers just because of a Super Shenron. This is not something you should do. Moreover, Father will not allow you to do this. Letting an outsider enter the core circle of the Martial God's bloodline is simply blasphemy to the bloodline of the Martial God. If other people in the Ancient City of Divine Descendants heard about this, how would they laugh at us?"
With the Five Young City Lords leading the way, the others also began to discuss.
"That's right, the bloodline of the Ancestral Clan cannot be insulted. Him possessing this identity is simply blasphemy to the ancestors. If this news were to spread, wouldn't the other Ancestral Clans in the Ancient City of Divine Descendants laugh their heads off?"
"This matter is really too childish. If the Third Young City Lord really wants to cultivate him, he can use other methods. For example, the two young ladies are not married yet, so they can be betrothed to him. That's also quite good."
For a moment, everyone was talking at once.
Long Chen sensed that Su Zhen seemed to be angry.
He waved his arm lightly and said a word, "Scram."
This word made all the experts of the branch family pale. They fled in panic at the first moment.
Only the Five Young City Lords still stood in the same place. She looked at Su Zhen with an incomprehensible look and said, "In that case, I won't meddle in other people's business. Goodbye."
After saying that, she was about to leave.
"Zilan." Su Zhen called out to her.
Su Zilan turned her head and asked, "Third Brother, is there anything else?"
Su Zhen closed his eyes and said, "Regarding the fight for the Ancestral Clan, I, Su Zhen, will withdraw. Hearing this news, the three of them will definitely go crazy with joy, right? As long as I withdraw, then I, Su Zhen, will be a branch family in the future. Then, his identity will naturally not be a problem."
Su Zilan looked at Su Zhen sluggishly.
Su Yuji was also puzzled.
Long Chen roughly understood that as long as the current City Lord abdicated, then the new City Lord would inevitably be one of the five of them. And the one who became the City Lord would automatically become the new Ancestral Clan, while the others would be reduced to branch families.
Could it be that Su Zhen withdrew in advance for Long Chen?
Or, he did not have this intention in the first place.
Su Zilan was silent for a long time before saying, "Third Brother is obsessed with martial arts. It's normal that he doesn't want to care about these things, but whether he can withdraw or not is not up to you. It's up to father to decide. Alright, I'll leave first."
After saying that, she turned and left without looking back.
In the spacious Dragon Martial Heavenly Palace, only Long Chen, Su Zhen, and Su Yuji were left.
Long Chen was puzzled.
What did this group of people want?
Su Zhen did not pay attention to them. He also turned and directly disappeared into the deepest part of the Dragon Martial Heavenly Palace.
"In the future, when you are going back to the outer city, I will arrange for you to stay in the inner city. After all, you now have a noble identity. I suggest you live in the inner city. Only here, you can enjoy endless cultivation resources."
Su Yuji said softly.
In this place, Long Chen was not used to it.
"Take me out."
"Alright."
Su Yuji did not force him. In less than a quarter of an hour, everything that needed to be done had been done. Although it was a little inexplicable, it was still considered smooth. Long Chen was a little confused. What kind of person was this Su Zhen?
Was he really good to him, or was he threatening and using him?
This time, while walking in the outer city, Long Chen alarmed many people. Many people pointed at Long Chen with disdain. Long Chen's appearance this time could be said to have violated the interests of many people.
If it was not for Su Yuji beside him, they would probably have openly provoked him.
After Long Chen left the inner city and arrived at the outer city, he basically knew the way, so there was no need for Su Yuji to send him.
"Now you understand. My father is really doing it for your own good, and so am I. My sister is just a child. Don't be too calculative with her." Su Yuji said softly.
Long Chen nodded and then disappeared from her sight without looking back.
Su Yuji stared at him for a long time, then lowered her head and said in distress, "What does Father want this little guy to do? I really can't figure it out. These years, he has become more and more mysterious. However, in terms of martial arts, he is getting more and more profound. It seems that he has the momentum to surpass Uncle and Second Uncle in all aspects."
Following that, she returned alone.
At this moment, a fiery red figure stopped in front of her.
"Yao 'er." Su Yuji's gaze turned cold.
Su Yuyao sneered and said, "Su Yuji, don't you think you're disgusting to pretend to be gentle in front of others all day? Where's your true nature? Where's your devil-like heart?"
Su Yuji was not angry, but said helplessly, "You still misunderstand me like this. Oh right, I heard that you and our new little brother will have a fight in three months."
Su Yuyao sneered, "New little brother, stop joking. Who doesn't know that you guys want to play Long Chen to death? I can only make a move before you guys do. Super Shenron, hehe, if it's a manslaughter, or a death in a fight between people of the same level, and not a massacre, even if the people of the five great Dragon Cities find out, they won't be able to say anything."
Su Yuji didn't comment, she quietly looked at her younger sister.
Su Yuyao coldly laughed, "The reason I came here is mainly to ask you, what the hell is father planning exactly? Earlier, he said that he wanted to withdraw from the competition of the ancestral clan. Why is that? Didn't he put in so much effort all these years just to become the City Lord? Also, big brother, he has been fighting outside for so many years and obtained a lot of battle achievements. His strength has risen to a terrifying level. Isn't it all for the sake of father becoming the City Lord?
This question also caused Su Yuji to be puzzled.
But in front of Su Yuyao, she said, "Even now, you still have the temperament of a child. Other than causing trouble, what else can you do? If father's plans were to be made known to you, wouldn't that be terrible? Go and play around, these matters have nothing to do with you. I only advise you not to disrupt father's plans."
Su Yuyao's countenance flushed red. She gloomily stared at Su Yuji and cursed, "Slut," before turning to leave.
After she left, Su Yuji's gaze was similarly filled with killing intent.
