If Chen Tianwen were to take over the position of head of the family...

They naturally became one of our own.

Spending such a large amount of resources on outsiders is definitely different from spending it on our own people.

Secondly, it binds Chen Tianwen and the Shu family together.

With a powerful figure like Chen Tianwen protecting the Shu family, how far away is the Shu family's future rise?

The Shu family members were all excited.

As expected of our ancestor who lived for two hundred years, he was truly remarkable!

Several clan elders rose together and, imitating the Shu family patriarch, knelt on the ground: "Please, Mr. Chen, assume the position of head of our Shu family!"

Several elders took the lead, and the other members of the Shu family seemed to awaken from a dream, bowing and kowtowing to Chen Tianwen.

"Please accept the position of head of the Shu family, Mr. Chen!"

Looking at the Chen family members who were cheering like a tidal wave, Chen Tianwen gently shook his head and said, "I cannot be the head of this family."

The sect leader of the Divine Sword Sect alone was enough to give him a headache.

If he were to accept the position of family head again, it would mean he doesn't have enough trouble already.

However, simply making excuses is definitely not an option.

Chen Tianwen's eyes revealed a thoughtful expression.

The Shu family is, after all, an ancient family that has been passed down from ancient times.

With its profound foundation and the extraordinary bloodline of the Shu family, once it breaks free from the curse, it will undoubtedly become a super-large power renowned throughout the region.

Such a promising talent, if used properly, could definitely become a valuable asset.

Chen Tianwen frowned.

He was pondering a way to influence the Shu family without having to become the head of the family.

Just then, he glanced at Shu Yiyao, who was standing on one side of the main hall.

Suddenly, an idea came to mind.

“Mr. Chen, this is a tradition passed down from our ancestors, please don’t refuse…”

At this moment, the patriarch of the Shu family was still trying to persuade them, but Chen Tianwen interrupted him.

"My mind is made up. It is not appropriate for me, an outsider, to take on the position of head of the Shu family."

As Chen Tianwen spoke, he helped the Shu family patriarch up from the ground.

A hint of disappointment flashed in the eyes of the Shu family patriarch.

He had actually anticipated this outcome.

In a sense, appointing Chen Tianwen as the head of the Shu family was like getting something for nothing.

It's perfectly normal for Chen Tianwen to disagree.

However, Chen Tianwen's next question caught his attention.

"If you really have this idea, why not let Yi Yao become the clan leader?"

Chen Tianwen said slowly.

Shu Yiyao is a member of the Shu family, and she knows him well enough.

The most important quality is good enough.

She is the most suitable person to be the head of the Shu family.

Upon hearing Chen Tianwen's words, the disappointment in the eyes of the Shu family patriarch vanished, replaced by a gleam of light.

Although Chen Tianwen refused the position of head of the Shu family.

However, Shu Yiyao was recommended instead.

It's obvious that they want to maintain a good relationship with Shu Jiabao.

This attitude proves that Chen Tianwen did not treat this matter as a naked transaction.

Thinking of this, the Shu family patriarch turned to look in Shu Yiyao's direction.

The other members of the Shu family in the main hall also looked in Shu Yiyao's direction.

Shu Yiyao was still in a daze.

He stood there, his expression frozen and blank.

The patriarch of the Shu family quickly realized what was happening and walked to Shu Yiyao in a few steps.

"Yi Yao, Mr. Chen recommends you to become the head of my Shu family. Are you willing to accept?"

The gentle voice of the Shu family patriarch pulled Shu Yiyao back to reality.

"I...I...I..."

Her voice trembled slightly.

A hint of panic flashed in her beautiful eyes.

The head of the Shu family enjoys immense prestige and power, but he also bears the responsibility for the entire family.

Especially given that the Shu family has already declined to this extent.

She didn't know if she could shoulder this heavy responsibility.

For some reason, she subconsciously looked at Chen Tianwen.

But then, Chen Tianwen nodded slightly, a hint of encouragement in his eyes.

It's as if it's saying to her, "I support you."

At this moment, an unprecedented sense of security dispelled all of Shu Yiyao's timidity, fear, and doubt.

She turned to look at the patriarch of the Shu family and said decisively, "I'm willing!"

The voice was incredibly firm!

Although the road ahead is difficult, with Chen Tianwen by her side, she has boundless confidence!

"Okay, okay, okay!"

The old ancestor repeatedly praised it.

Shu Yiyao's qualifications were already top-notch, and she also had experience managing a mercenary group.

Most importantly, they're young!

He has the best chance of breaking the curse and leading the Shu family to new heights!

"We pay our respects to the new head of the family!"

Led by the patriarch of the Shu family, more than a thousand people from both direct and collateral branches of the Shu family kowtowed to Shu Yiyao.

And amidst this fervent call.

Shu Yiyao slowly walked to Chen Tianwen's side and knelt on one knee.

"By order of the Shu family patriarch, Mr. Chen shall henceforth be the Supreme Elder of the Shu family. To see Mr. Chen is to see the patriarch!"

The clear, crisp voice echoed throughout the hall.

Chen Tianwen nodded slightly, indicating that he accepted the position of Supreme Elder.

He was quite satisfied with Shu Yiyao's handling of the situation.

The Supreme Elder holds a position equivalent to the head of the family, yet he does not need to concern himself with the affairs of the head of the family.

Chen Tianwen liked this kind of job the most.

Then Chen Tianwen accepted the position of Supreme Elder.

Shu Yiyao gave a bright smile.

Next, Chen Tianwen passed on the complete incantation seal of the Reversing Fate to Become an Immortal to several other Nascent Soul cultivators in the Shu family.

They resumed their seclusion, preparing to break through to the Integration Realm before the Heavenly Curse arrived.
