Chapter 194: Succeeding the Patriarch

"But after all, with your current strength, I'm afraid it won't play a big role!" Sima Zhao's faint tone was the most crucial point.

Qing Ning didn't deny this, "I didn't want to raise the strength of the whole clan to go, but now the news is just out, unconfirmed, I think someone still has to go and investigate!"

"Oh?" Sima Zhao glanced sideways slightly, "Then you mean, you're going to the Central Star Sea in person?"

Qing Ning nodded.

"No!" Zhong Limiao suddenly interjected, "Qing Ning, now that the Ancient God Clan has just stabilized, as the patriarch, you can't take this risk!"

"Yes! If you want to find out the news, naturally someone will go, there is no need for you to go in person!" Gongsun Bo is also in line with the Tao, while Murong Xi and Xuanyuan Nuo have never made a sound.

"What's wrong with you two today? You didn't say a word about such an important matter?" Gongsun Bo said angrily.

Murong Xi glanced at Gongsun Bo lightly, and he didn't bother to argue with him, "The patriarch has his own considerations, I think this trip to the Central Star Sea is not just to confirm some news!

Qing Ning nodded, that's exactly what she thought, after all, only when she, as the patriarch, came forward in person, could an effective agreement be reached, and this matter, if anyone else, I am afraid it will be useless.

Sima Zhao was not surprised at all, he had already guessed about this, but he had other thoughts about this matter, but he still had to wait for someone to arrive.

"Da Da! Da Da!" A guard walked in slowly, and then bowed slightly, "Patriarch, Young Master Chu has already arrived outside the hall!"

"Ahem!" Sima Zhao coughed twice suddenly, "Now Chu Ze is the husband of your patriarch, this title, I'm afraid it has to be changed!"

Qing Ning didn't speak, the patriarch of the four major families didn't speak, and the guard was also a little trembling and didn't dare to speak.

"Alright, you let him in!"

"Yes!"

......

As Chu Ze walked in slowly, everyone's eyes were also focused on him, and Sima Zhao saw at a glance that something was wrong with Chu Ze at the moment, not only his appearance, but also his strength, and now his aura was no different from that of a seventh-order ability.

"It seems that this coma has been lifted by a blessing in disguise!"

And the patriarchs of the four major families were naturally aware of such a change, but they didn't know the specific situation, so when Chu Ze suddenly had the strength of the seventh order, he was also extremely surprised.

Qing Ning also got up in surprise, slowly approached, and observed carefully, "Chu Ze, how did you become like this?"

Chu Ze just smiled, "By chance, it's a long story, it's not very convenient to be here today, besides, don't you have something to discuss?"

Qing Ning nodded, and then stopped asking about it, then turned around and sat down again.

"Qing Ning, just come here, I heard you say that you want to go to the Central Star Sea in person?"

"That's right! One is to practice, and the other is for the ancient gods!"

"It's better to leave this matter to me!" Chu Ze said lightly, shocking everyone with a word, only Sima Zhao looked indifferent.

"But......" Qing Ning wanted to speak and stopped, Chu Ze naturally knew what she wanted to say, but in front of the patriarchs of the four major families, it was obviously a little impossible.

"Okay! In that case, today, let's take this opportunity to hold the patriarch's succession ceremony!"

"Succession ceremony?"

"Yes, we have also discussed this matter during this time, but you have never woken up, so it has been delayed until now!" Qing Ning explained.

"But aren't you the patriarch of today?"

"But after all, you are the most suitable now!"

Chu Ze was speechless, he thought that this was just a name, after all, no matter whether he was the patriarch of the Ancient God Clan or not, he and the Ancient God Clan could no longer be separated today.

"Chu Ze, since you are going to the Central Star Sea, this status of the leader of the Ancient God Clan will also be of some help to you, and besides, you can also do some necessary things on behalf of my Ancient God Clan!" Qing Ning continued.

Chu Ze also knew this, so he no longer shirked it, but responded, "Since this is the case, then I will inherit the position of the patriarch!"

Qing Ning smiled slightly, the patriarchs of the four major families were also quite satisfied, after all, today's Chu Ze had made such rapid progress in a month, and they believed that this Chu Ze would definitely take the ancient god clan further and further in the future.

......

Ancient shrines!

Prior to this, the ancient shrine had already been destroyed by the demons, but a month ago, Qing Ning had already ordered the ancient shrine to be repaired first, and those ancestors were offered to the ancestral hall again.

And the succession of the patriarchs of the ancient god clan must be recognized by the ancestors in the ancient god shrine, but obviously, Qing Ning has not experienced this process, but in an emergency, he has to do so.

"Chu Ze, the ancestors in this ancestral hall are all a trace of consciousness left by the generations of strong people of my ancient god clan within a thousand years, because it is extremely ethereal, so the demon clan has never noticed them, and now that the ancestral hall is built again, they have all returned, so if you want to succeed to the position of this patriarch, you must get their approval!"

Listening to Qing Ning's explanation, Chu Ze was also slightly surprised, this ancient god clan is really amazing, it actually built such a place to store consciousness, and the ancestral hall was destroyed, but the consciousness has not been dispersed, but it has the same effect as the spirit gathering stone.

"You don't have to worry too much, although you are not from your own clan, but the life stone in your body proves your ability, so, I don't think they will embarrass you too much!"

"En!" Chu Ze was not worried, and he didn't care if he wasn't embarrassed, after all, the position of the patriarch was not important to him.

Seeing Chu Ze so calm, Qing Ning didn't say anything more, closed the door, and slowly retreated with everyone.

As Qing Ning and the others left, the entire ancestral hall instantly became gloomy, and the lingering incense filled the ancestral hall, making it look much more ethereal.

I don't know if it's reality or fantasy, Chu Ze only feels a little confused, in this white space, Chu Ze is a little drowsy.

Suddenly, several figures slowly appeared in front of his eyes, as if the water was rippling, as if they could be dispersed immediately with a light blow.

Chu Ze also opened his eyes suddenly, and the figures gradually became clear.

Those old men were withered, their facial features were almost covered by wrinkled cheeks, if it weren't for the deep and cloudy pupils that flashed with the light of seeing through the vicissitudes of life, Chu Ze really thought that they had no facial features.

"Who are you?" A majestic voice came from the mouth of the leader of the group.

Chu Ze bowed slightly and made a big salute.

"Junior, Chu Ze!"

"Chu Ze?" This remark shocked everyone.

"It's not from my clan, trespassing on the ancestral hall, damn it!"

"Yes, this kid can't be spared!"

"Or, drain this kid's soul and repent here for the rest of his life!"

Hearing these remarks, Chu Ze also smiled faintly, he could finally understand why over the years, instead of progressing, this ancient god clan has continued to decline, these people in power are really pedantic!

"Shut up!" The old man at the head shouted loudly, and those who were talking about it were immediately silenced, obviously, this old man occupied an absolute position in this group of people.

"Old Ancestor, this Chu Ze is not a member of my ancient god clan, according to the rules, it should be so!"

"Hmph!" the old man snorted coldly, "Rules and rules! It is because you have stubbornly adhered to that immutable rule that my ancient god clan has suffered this catastrophe!"

The other old men didn't dare to speak anymore, after all, they felt the disaster of the ancient god clan when the ancestral hall collapsed before, and for thousands of years, the ancient god clan has indeed been in decline, this is a fact, and there is no quibble.

Seeing that those people were honest, the old man's eyes turned to Chu Ze.

"Little brother, can you tell me why you entered this place?" The old man said gently.

"I am the one who has come to succeed the patriarch of the Ancient God Clan!" Chu Ze's understated glance shook the waves again.

"Presumptuous, how dare you, a person with a foreign surname, covet the position of the patriarch of my clan!" said a man who seemed to have some status behind the old man.

The old man at the head waved his hand slightly, and he stopped the boiling discussion.

"Little brother, you should know that the position of the patriarch of my ancient god clan is not something that you can succeed if you say succession! I know that since you have come here, you must have obtained the consent of the current ruler, but we old fellows are not so easy to agree. ”

Chu Ze just smiled faintly, Qing Ning was really right, it seemed that he could only take out his hole cards.

Then a faint green glow bloomed instantly, and in the surprised eyes of the old men, the life stone suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"You, you...... You dare to steal the token of the patriarch of my clan, you really don't know whether you are alive or dead!", an old man shouted loudly, and then asked the old man's hand to wave lightly, and the entire ancestral hall shook.

The old man at the head just stared slightly, his palm was slightly raised, and then it fell, and the whole space was quiet.

"Old Ancestor!" the old man who made the shot was surprised. "This kid is already so bold, even my clan's holy relics dare to steal, is it possible that the ancestor still wants to protect him?"

The leader of the old man sighed, "Gu Tian, you are really getting more and more stupid, how can my clan's holy relics be so easy to steal?"

The old man who called the ancient heavens blushed and didn't say anything more.

"Little brother, can you tell me more about the reason?" The old man looked at Chu Ze and smiled slightly.

Chu Ze nodded slightly, "I don't know what the seniors call yet?"

The old man at the head smiled faintly, "I have been dead for thousands of years, don't mention it, seeing that you have a good relationship with my clan, you can call me an old ancestor!

Chu thought about it for a while, since he was already married to Qing Ning, there was nothing wrong with calling the old ancestor on the bright side.

"That being the case, then let the juniors elaborate!"
