Chapter 304: The Patriarch Disputed
The Iron Protector had just in time to complete the recovery and was about to attack the palace's defensive array again.
"Let's go!"
Chen Nan immediately urged continuously, and at the same time looked at Ding Su Xing and Xia Chun, and said, "Let's stay at the end and go, for everyone." ”
"Good. ”
There was only one word in Su Xing's answer, but it revealed a kind of responsibility as a great patriarch.
"I don't have an opinion either, but Brother Chen, you can go first, after all, it may not be appropriate for you to stay in your current situation. ”
Xia Chun persuaded him, his tone was very tactful, but what he said was the truth.
"No, I still insist on my words, after all, this is the palace of my Chen family. ”
Chen Nan said categorically, obviously his mind has been made and cannot be persuaded.
Hearing him say this, Xia Chun didn't say anything, and stood on both sides of Su Xing, watching groups of masters from various forces walk into the teleportation array.
The teleportation speed of this formation laid by the land formation division is indeed very fast, except for the first round, only six or seven people were sent away for safety, but the back will send away a full ten people every time, and the number of people staying here is rapidly decreasing.
"Mr. Su Gu, you are all Su Qin's family, you should go first, what are you waiting for? ”
After three or four waves of people left, Chen Nan found that Su Gu was still standing aside with a few of Su Qin's cousins, so he said with a slight surprise.
"No, let's let others go, after all, among these people, our status is the lowest, and our cultivation is the weakest, so we should be left last. ”
Su Gu didn't say a word, but took two steps back, and even Su Gan and the others behind him followed suit.
"You don't want to wait for Su Qin and Miss Su Meng'er. ”
Chen Nan couldn't see his true thoughts, the answer just now may not be a lie, but it is by no means the most critical reason.
"Uh, your majesty is clear. ”
Su Gu hesitated for a moment, but finally chose not to hide it anymore.
"Alas, why don't I want to stay, it has always been Su Qin who has been helping me and helping my royal family, at this critical juncture, I have to abandon him and go first, but the shape is stronger than people, and the strength of the enemy is obvious to all, if you don't go, you will have to take a few more lives. ”
Chen Nan sighed and continued to persuade, but he had already seen that Su Gu probably belonged to a type of person who was difficult to persuade.
At this time, Su Xing suddenly interjected: "Su Gu, I am the great patriarch of the Su clan, if I give an order now, you must leave immediately with your family, can you leave?"
It was not easy for him to refuse this identity within the clan, after all, Su Gu was only a small branch family head.
But Su Gu shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid it's hard for me to obey this order." ”
"Huh!?" Su Xing was a little surprised, his lips opened slightly for a while, but he continued after a long while, "Then if I say that once you disobey this order, it is tantamount to betraying the clan, and even these sons and nephews behind you, will you refuse?"
He had already said this, although his tone was not too harsh, but it was a relatively strict thing to put on any member of the Su clan.
But to his surprise, Su Gu actually said with a firm gaze after a moment of silence: "If that's the case, Great Patriarch, I'm really sorry, I'd rather take my Liucheng family to break away from the Su clan!"
"Su Gu! What are you talking about!?"
Great Elder Su Xinyi hadn't left at the moment, he was standing beside Su Xing, and when he heard that Su Gu actually dared to say such a thing, his eyes immediately widened, and he asked loudly before Su Xing.
The other two Great Elders, Su Jie and Su Caitao, were also beside them, although they were not as excited as Su Xinyi, they both looked at Su Gu in disbelief, as if they couldn't believe that someone dared to say such a thing in front of Su Xing.
Although the reason why Su Gu said this was because he was worried about his son and daughter, breaking away from the clan was really too heavy, and it was equivalent to a challenge to the authority of the great patriarch.
"Su Gu, I hope you have thought clearly, breaking away from the clan, and the entire family breaking away together, is not something to be said casually, there needs to be a good reason. ”
Awakening's expression was still relatively calm, and the tone of his voice did not improve, but if you looked closely into his eyes, you could notice a strange light flickering under his eyes.
In fact, not only the high-level members of the Su family, but even the other people around them were very shocked, and they couldn't imagine that there would be such a thing at such a juncture.
Especially a group of people from the Ling family, the eyes that looked at Su Gu were a little strange, after all, the Ling clan was also a big clan similar to the Su clan, with a strict system, and since the establishment of the clan, there had never been anything like that.
"Reason?" Su Gu's brows twitched slightly, and he pursed his lips and looked around at the eyes of the people around him, before he slowly replied, "Great Patriarch, I didn't say that we must leave the clan, but if you force us to leave no matter what, then I will have to do it." ”
He actually pushed the problem back to the awakening.
However, the cause and effect of the matter is indeed like this, if it weren't for Su Xing saying that not leaving, it would be tantamount to betraying the clan, and Su Gu would not have proposed that the entire family should break away together.
It's just that in front of so many people, Su Gu blames all the blame on Su Xing, and Su Gu's courage is really big enough, but as long as he thinks about it, he dares to say it openly even if he breaks away from the clan, it doesn't seem to be a big deal.
As soon as these words fell, the venue suddenly fell silent, except for the sound of the teleportation array being teleported again.
Su Xinyi and the other three Great Elders looked at Su Gu's gaze, as if they were about to eat the latter.
Even Su Xing himself stared at Su Gu without blinking, his face expressionless, not knowing what he was thinking.
In such a situation, even Chen Nan and Xia Chun couldn't persuade them, after all, it was an internal matter of the clan, and no matter how much status and strength outsiders had, they would not have the qualifications to intervene.
"Okay, good!" After waking up for a long time, he suddenly laughed and spoke, seeing that his attitude was not angry because of Su Gu's words, but he was very approving, "Being able to give birth to a son like Su Qin, and being a father is really extraordinary, I won't force you anymore, I just hope that you will also take into account Su Qin's feelings." ”
He even said that he would no longer interfere with Su Gu's choice, but the last sentence finally persuaded him again in a tortuous way.
As for Su Qin's feelings, needless to say, he knows that he must not want his family to take a big risk for himself.
"Well, I'll think about it for Qin'er, Patriarch. ”
Of course, Su Gu knew what he meant, nodded and agreed, but he kept his original title, it seemed that it was indeed the same as what he said, as long as he woke up and didn't force him, he wouldn't really do anything to break away from the clan.
The two of them delayed their talk, and the people around them left a lot, seeing that the people of the Ling family were about to leave first, and some of the masters of the Jiuxia Chamber of Commerce had already left, only the people of the Su family left the most, and in addition, Lu Shuang and Chen Ran and others who were still guarding Chen Nan's side.
"Chen Ran, you go first, you don't have to accompany your father, this makes me worry. It's a pity that your brother Wang hasn't come yet, I'm afraid something has happened, I hope he doesn't fall into Ouyang Heng's hands. ”
Chen Nan has never suspected it until now, Chen Huan didn't appear because of Chen Ran and Su Qin.
"Father, brother Wang, he ......"
After all, Chen Ran did not develop the ruthless character that the children of the Wang family should have, and when he mentioned it like this, he had to hesitate to tell Chen Huan's whereabouts.
But it was at this time that there was a sudden "click" cracking sound in the sky, and it turned out that the light shield of the palace's defensive array began to have a tendency to shatter.
Suddenly, everyone in the vicinity raised their heads in unison, looking up at the Iron Protector who was slamming into the fist, and the tense atmosphere spread rapidly.
In fact, the Iron Protector has been doing the same thing just now, and the huge vibration sound has always existed, but the formation is very strong, so everyone is not so worried for the time being.
"Mr. Xue, can you still strengthen the formation again?"
Chen Nan immediately inquired about Xue Jilai, but saw the latter's embarrassed look.
"Your Majesty, you also know that this defensive array in the palace is not something that Mr. Lu and I can arrange, it has been poured into the efforts of many formation masters in the past, and it is relatively easy to strengthen it without attacking, but now that there is such a master who is constantly attacking, I am afraid that the two of us are together, and we can barely maintain it. ”
Xue Ji explained helplessly, and at the same time, he used the runes condensed by his soul power to fill in the formation as much as possible, but he could not delay the destruction speed of the iron protector in the slightest.
And he is indeed right, this huge defensive array in the palace was arranged when the Cangyan Kingdom was first established, and it was first participated by as many as six formation masters, and later it would be reinforced by many palace worship array masters every few years, otherwise it would not be possible to resist the Iron Protector for so long today.
"That's it, I actually have a Digging Pill, but after taking this pill, it is really a huge disaster, so I never dared to take it out, and now I can't take care of it, so let's fight again." ”
Chen Nan suddenly gritted his teeth, and wiped his storage magic weapon with a trembling hand, and a new brocade box appeared in his hand again.
