"And in the end, it was Master Lin who turned the tide, not only saved many of us, but also destroyed half of the city of the Hidden Yuan Society, otherwise, our losses this time would be even more heavy, and there is no merit at all!" The man continued.

"I know......" Chen Wannian slowly exhaled, "You have also worked hard, go back and rest, I want to think about what to do next......"

"Yes!" The group nodded and turned to leave.

In the next few days, Lin Yi was more in his state of recovery, but those who survived were constantly summoned.

During these times, Chen Wannian basically knew Chen Hai's performance during this time.

A few days later, in Lin Yi's room, Chen Wannian sat on the edge of the wine table, with good wine and good food on the table.

"Patriarch Chen, since I came back, this is the second time we have met, you shouldn't have come to drink with me, you can tell me if there is anything, as long as I can do it." Lin Yi said, his expression was unusually sincere, such a thing as acting must be in place.

"I've basically understood everything that happened before." Chen Wannian glanced at Lin Yi, "You don't have to take Chen Hai's matter to heart, and this time you have contributed a lot, I know this in my heart." ”

"Don't seek merit, but seek no fault." Lin Yi hurriedly said.

"Since you've said so, I'll punish you a little." Chen Wannian glanced at Lin Yi, "Although you are not from my Chen family, but next I want you to sit in Chen Hai's position, if you want to count, it will be my punishment for you!" ”

Hearing this, Lin Yi hurriedly stood up: "Patriarch Chen, this can't be helped, I ......"

"You listen to me when I'm done." Chen Wannian glanced at Lin Yi, "Don't think this is a reward, this is really a punishment, although this time although you said that after your efforts, most of the Hidden Yuan Society was wiped out, but there are still a small number of people alive, and their strength is very strong......"

"Of course, they also know that it was my Chen family who did it, so I know very well that for a long time in the future, they will cause losses to my Chen family in various ways." Chen Wannian slowly exhaled, "It's a pity, if we could have annihilated them all, there would not be such a situation now......

Lin Yi was stunned and didn't speak, but he was secretly happy in his heart, all this was exactly the same as he expected.

"There is a long way to go, you sit in Chen Hai's position, more I hope you can help Chen Hao, the two of you must put aside your prejudices and cooperate more in the future, the current Chen family is in crisis!" Chen Wannian said slowly.

"I see!" Lin Yi said, "I will definitely live up to your trust!" ”

"Hahaha, I believe you!" Chen Wannian said with a smile, "Come, drink!" ”

In the evening, Chen Hao came to Chen Wannian's side: "Father, I heard that you let that Master Lin sit in Chen Hai's position?" ”

Chen Wannian glanced at Chen Hao: "Something?" ”

"Father, how long has he been here? What is the scheming, what is the strength, and what is the purpose, we don't know at all, if we give him such a big authority now, I'm afraid it will be very disadvantageous to us! Chen Hao said in a deep voice.

"I've found out all the information before, and for now, he hasn't shown his claws yet, so I naturally have my own reasons for doing this." Chen Wannian said slowly, "This time, my Chen family's losses are extremely heavy, and the overall strength has decreased a lot, so to a certain extent, I want to stabilize the current situation!" ”

"Don't forget, this guy's refining strength made Changge Xing admit defeat, and now let him sit in Chen Hai's position, that is, he is telling other families that he is our person!" Chen Wannian glanced at Chen Hao, "With such a hole card, then other families will not easily do it to us." ”

"Father......" Chen Hao frowned.

"I know there may be some festives between you, but it is very important for men to be informal, I hope the relationship between the two of you is reconciled, on the one hand, because he is really of great help to my Chen family, and it is also a great help to you, on the other hand, I hope you will monitor him for me, once this guy has any double-minded actions, he will not hesitate to kill him!" Chen Wannian glanced at Chen Hao, "Understood?" ”

"Yes, Father!" Chen Hao hurriedly said.

"Cultivate well, and recruit more powerful talents, these people are of great use to us, whether they are guards or guest secretaries, the requirements can be relaxed to some extent, and those people can be used as cannon fodder at that time!" Chen Wannian said lightly.

"Yes!" Chen Hao nodded hurriedly.

On the other hand, Lin Yi also got a lot of resources, and he naturally wouldn't waste these resources, plus some of the previous accumulation, he actually used his strength to successfully break through to the Seventh-Order Spirit Sect.

This made Lin Yi overjoyed, he was one step closer to Lingzun, and after reaching the Lingzun realm, he could volley in the air, and besides, some of them belonged to his own domain, which was definitely a great thing for the battle.

However, until now, it seems that he has not seen any Spirit Venerable powerhouses, which makes Lin Yi feel a little regretful.

Just as expected, the people of the Hidden Yuan Society quickly made a move against the Chen family, and the number was not large, but it was an almost all-round attack.

The things that were done were not too big, after destroying some restaurants, destroying some houses, and killing a few people from the Chen family, they slipped away......

If it is an overall attack, there may be a way to defend it, but in the face of such a guerrilla war, it is really not very easy to deal with.

This really made Chen Wannian anxious.

The loss of this time and twice may not be very large, but it can't withstand the repeated actions of others.

The added losses will be very serious, but more importantly, their actions have made the entire Chen family lose their prestige!

Once a family loses its prestige, it will become very difficult to get its subordinates to obey its orders, and if other families do anything against the Chen family and lose the support of those people, the Chen family will also fall into isolation......

It is precisely because of this that Chen Wannian sent many people to get rid of the remnants of the Hidden Yuan Society, but those people were not very greedy, once they succeeded, they slipped away, and by the time the Chen family arrived, those people would have disappeared long ago, so they basically returned in vain......
