On this night when the world seemed to change color, a young boy emerged from the Chen family's ancient tomb.
Looking at the night sky above Shanghai, he slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, a wicked smile appearing on his lips, completely unconcerned about the torrential rain that was pouring down.
The cold rain pattered on his face, but a smile appeared on his face.
He shouted to the heavens:
"I, Chen Fan, have guarded this grave for ten years. I have finally returned to start a family. What you owe me, you must repay tonight!"
After saying this, the boy instantly disappeared from the spot, and when he reappeared, he had arrived at the family gathering of the Chen family, one of the eight ancient martial arts clans.
At this moment, the Chen family was holding a family meeting to discuss how to deal with the internal strife among the eight ancient martial arts clans.
As a member of one of the eight ancient martial arts clans, Chen Jia did not want this to happen at all, but they were also well aware that the conflicts between the eight clans had accumulated for hundreds of years and it was time to resolve them.
Otherwise, the eight clans will never have a chance to rise again, and if the internal conflicts are not resolved, they will never be able to fight off external threats.
Moreover, the ancient martial arts world is undergoing dramatic changes every day, and if the eight clans do not make changes, they will only face extinction.
How exactly should we change? Everyone knows the answer.
It simply means that one family must be stronger than the other seven families, and that family must act as the "leader," leading the entire ancient martial arts clans forward at breakneck speed. Only then can it be considered a healthy team.
But now, the most important thing is, which of the eight ancient martial arts clans is suitable to be the "leader"?
The Chen family has accumulated experience over many years, and their ranks are filled with experts. They have always been ambitious about this.
Therefore, the Chen family is prepared to make a big push and win the crown of "leader".
Just then, the gate of the Chen Family Ancestral Hall was instantly blasted into pieces, and a young man with bright eyes and sharp features walked in. He was soaking wet, but his eyes were filled with a burning killing intent.
A murderous aura swept in as the young man burst through the door.
The boy's body trembled slightly, and water droplets flew in all directions. Heat rose from his body instantly, and in the next moment, scorching flames ignited, as if he himself carried endless flames.
Upon seeing such a powerful figure suddenly rush in, the Chen family members all drew their longswords and looked at him warily.
he.
"Who are you? Why are you barging into the main hall of my Chen family?"
The young man looked disdainful and didn't answer their questions. Instead, he pointed a finger at the Chen family patriarch and said with a burning gaze:
"Do you remember what happened ten years ago? You didn't kill him then, but now I'm back."
Facing those cold, piercing eyes, the head of the Chen family couldn't help but recall events from ten years ago.
At that time, he was not the head of the Chen family. It was another member of the Chen family. In order to seize the position of head of the family, he framed the other party and then officially took over.
He never regretted it, because he felt that after becoming the head of the Chen family, the Chen family's power was stronger than before, but he was far more suitable to be the head of the family than the other party.
But his only regret was that he hadn't succeeded in eliminating the root of the problem and had left this little bastard alive.
At the time, this little bastard was only a teenager, but he disappeared overnight, and no one knows where he went.
However, just as the Chen family patriarch was reminiscing about the past, the boy appeared before him like lightning, raised his hand and grabbed his neck, saying:
"Now you remember, right? Very good. Since you've remembered, then tell the Chen family members present about your crimes. Once you've explained everything, I'll send you on your way."
The head of the Chen family was extremely shocked. He never dreamed that this young man was so strong, as strong as a devil from hell!
Even though he had used his strongest power to resist, he couldn't even budge a single finger of the other party.
In the end, the head of the Chen family shed tears of remorse and cried out, trembling as he knelt down and begged for mercy, but the boy remained unmoved.
The head of the Chen family explained the truth of what happened back then to all the Chen family members. The Chen family members wavered, expressing sympathy on one hand and begging the young man to release the head of the family on the other.
However, Chen Fan did not give the Chen family patriarch a chance to live. After the other party finished confessing and explaining the whole story, Chen Fan killed him on the spot with a single palm strike, and then transformed into a flame.
In the blink of an eye, the head of the Chen family was reduced to ashes.
Then, Chen Fan looked at all the Chen family members present and said:
"All of you, kneel down and repent to my parents. You are not allowed to get up for three days and three nights. If anyone dares to get up, I will kill them."
After speaking, Chen Fan immediately began meditating in the most central position of the ancestral hall.
The Chen family members present looked completely bewildered...
We have no grudge against you. Even if we did, it would be against our families. Back then, we caused the deaths of your parents, but we had nothing to do with them. Why are you asking us to repent?
However, faced with absolute power, the main members of the Cheng family had no choice but to obediently kneel on the ground and pretend to repent.
However, some people can gather under the absolute deterrence of power, while others simply refuse to submit and are even engaging in underhanded tactics to try and escape.
Chen Fan had anticipated this, so he swiftly and brutally killed the Chen family members who tried to escape.
When the sun rose again the next day, Chen Fan had already reorganized the entire Chen family. He regained his position as head of the family and convened a confidential meeting within the Chen family.
To ensure the absolute loyalty of the Chen family members, Chen Fan imprinted a mental mark on the minds of every Chen family member who swore an oath, a mark that would make them forever follow and serve the Chen family.
This kind of ideological imprint is actually a magic array, a magic array that only cultivators can create.
Once this imprint is implanted in a person's mind, they will become without desires, with only one thing on their mind—
That is loyalty imprinted in one's mind.
He will suppress all your emotions and desires, devoting all his energy to loyalty alone.
A person's mental imprint can also make them very powerful. After all, the power you unleash when you are single-mindedly focused on doing something is terrifying.
Chen Fan wanted to use this method to unite the entire Chen family core in the shortest possible time and make them all obey him.
After completing all this, Chen Fan led the Chen family to pay respects to the ancestral tablets of the Chen family. Then, Chen Fan gave the following order:
“From now on, you must thoroughly investigate the situation within the eight clans. The grudges between the Chen family and the eight clans must be settled.”
