Chapter 2061: Challenge
Hearing Duan Mu say this, Shi Wushuang couldn't help but smile bitterly, "King Lu saw the seniors, but the juniors were not good, and they failed to inherit the glory of the puppet sect...... To tell the truth, young people with a talent for puppetry are really getting harder and harder to find. β
"Eh, forget it, it's not your fault. I remember that Lu Ban guy seems to have said that no matter how powerful the inheritance is, it may not be able to prosper forever, ups and downs, life and death, are common things......" As he spoke, Broken Wood's tone seemed to be a little low, and he fell back to Ye Chen again, speechless.
"Holy Son, now the disciples have arrived. The Son is now ...... Is there anything you have to say?"
Hearing Shi Wushuang's words with the meaning of inquiry, Ye Chen came back to his senses, nodded with a smile and said, "Great Elder Hard, there are four other elders. When Ye Chen first arrived, he didn't want to be so majestic, but several elders were enthusiastic, so Ye Chen reluctantly sat here. Speaking of which, compared to most of the brothers in the sect, I should be a junior......"
Ye Chen was knowing his feelings, and expressed his intentions and feelings with reason, hoping to shorten the distance between him and the disciples of the puppet sect, but he was only halfway through speaking, but he heard the whispers below.
"Hey, didn't you just happen to be mixed up with the name of a holy son, what ability can you have at such a young age?"
"That's it, I've seen a lot of such hypocritical people. If you want me to say, he is just worried that we will not look down on him, and he is reluctant to pick up this position for nothing, so he said it so nicely. β
"Who said it wasn't, it's just a little guy from an eastern state, how much ability can he have, heh......"
Ye Chen controlled himself not to listen to these words, and only expressed the words he wanted to express, but as the voices in the Thousand Machines Hall became louder and louder, he had to stop first.
What made Ye Chen strange was that although the atmosphere in the Thousand Machines Hall was already so weird, Shi Wushuang only squinted his eyes slightly, as if he hadn't heard anything, including the four elders standing side by side at the front of the team, they also surprisingly showed the same attitude, allowing this atmosphere to continue to ferment.
This abnormal situation made Ye Chen couldn't help but become more sensitive, and when his mind was racing, he suddenly thought of Tong Qianli's emotion before leaving, and then he suddenly realized: "It seems that the five elders hope that they will give the young people of the puppet sect a way to defeat their arrogance." β
Ye Chen thought to himself, as long as he was a young man with some talent, he would naturally have arrogance, let alone a young genius of the Puppet Sect. For such a young genius, it would be useless for the five of Shi Wushuang to help themselves say anything good, even if they promised it, they would still have ideas in their hearts, if they wanted to establish their status as the Holy Son, there was only one way to go.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen no longer hesitated, holding the broken wood with one hand, Shi Shiran stood up, and knew with a serious expression: "I know that all the people of the puppet sect must have a lot of thoughts about my appearance, and even have a lot of complaints in their hearts. However, it doesn't matter, since I, Ye Chen, dare to take the position of this Holy Son, I naturally have my own ability. In this way, if anyone wants to weigh whether I have the ability to sit in this position, just go forward and try it and see for themselves. β
Ye Chen's words suddenly made the Thousand Machines Hall quiet, but it was only quiet, and the disdain in the eyes of the puppeteers who spoke just now did not restrain in the slightest. For a while, the two sides froze, no one spoke, and there was no movement.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Chen then opened his mouth clearly: "I know, you may have concerns in your hearts, or it may be something that the Great Elder said before. But I, Ye Chen, promise here, no matter who comes out to challenge me, no matter what the result is, I won't care, let alone let a few elders help, let's only speak with absolute strength, how about it?"
With Ye Chen's words, there was a commotion in the Thousand Machines Hall again, and it didn't take long for someone to say in a loud voice: "I'm coming!"
"The Ghost Hand Puppet Holy Ancestor, Si Mengnan, is willing to ask the Holy Son for advice!"
After someone took the lead, the hall of the thousand machines suddenly became lively, and the words that were originally just hidden in their hearts shouted one by two.
"Since I am asked to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, I am welcome. Ye Chen, who had anticipated the situation in front of him, did not have any panicked expression on his face, but silently glanced down, and after a long time, the young people on the side of the puppet sect quieted down first.
"Just now, you were the first to speak, and you wanted to challenge me, right?" After a short silence, Ye Chen slowly opened his mouth, and his eyes locked on the purple-clothed young man who was second in line behind Shen Dongli.
Facing Ye Chen's direct gaze, the young man was obviously stunned in place, completely lacking the arrogant appearance when he first spoke, obviously not expecting Ye Chen to be frightened by the scene just now.
"If I heard it right...... You say, your name is Si Mengnan, right?" Ye Chen smiled and walked down from his position step by step, and finally stopped in front of Hong Wanjun's team.
"Yes...... I said it, so what?" Under the gaze of the same people around him, it was obvious that he would not be able to hold his face if he continued to be so passive, Si Mengnan showed a tough attitude and glared at Ye Chendao.
"Brother is serious, I didn't say what to do, did I? It's just that, since my brother just opened his mouth, according to the principle of fairness, naturally my brother should be the first to get the opportunity to challenge me, right? β
Ye Chen's calm attitude and the constant smile on his face made Si Mengnan suddenly regret his excitement just now. However, thinking that his master had said that this holy son was just a faΓ§ade and would not last long, Si Mengnan felt a lot more down-to-earth in his heart, so he slowly walked out of the team and did his best to show a chic appearance.
"That's right, it was Si Mou who spoke out just now, just to let our brothers and sisters of the puppet sect see clearly, whether you, the Holy Son, really have this ability!" After hearing that he spoke, he immediately received a lot of support, Si Mengnan couldn't help but feel more proud in his heart, and his eyes began to dare to look at Ye Chen, completely losing the cowering appearance just now.
"Okay! Since Brother Si Mengnan thinks so, you might as well give it a try. Ye Chen smiled, not caring about Si Mengnan's face changing several times, and calmly looked at Shi Wushuang on the side and said: "Great Elder, Ye Chen also understands that with such a sudden appearance and such a high status, it is inevitable that some brothers in the sect will have doubts, so take this opportunity to let everyone have a deeper understanding of Zaixia." Of course, in the front, no matter what the result is, several elders don't need to be angry, so that everyone can display their skills with confidence, and let me see the demeanor of the young geniuses of the puppet sect. β
