Chapter 1673: Chapter 1668: Yang Chen’s Counterattack_1 Chapter 1673: Chapter 1668: Yang Chen’s Counterattack_1 “Elder Brother nghen is right, everything should be based on contributions, even for us, we must treat everyone equally. If it were a disciple who has been in the Sect for many years, even without rit, there would be hard work, and your arrangent would be fine, but this kid Yang Chen, what rits and abilities does he have? He just joined the Sect and enjoys such treatnt. I think the disciples who have been in the Sect for many years would definitely not accept this.”
“I also think Elder Brother nghen has a point!”
In an instant, many powerful Taoists spoke up, leading many True God Realm experts to nod in agreent. Since they couldn’t accept Yang Chen as a disciple, his benefits had nothing to do with them. They cared more about their own interests.
To set a precedent with Yang Chen would bring them no benefit, so why should they agree?
Chen Yangqi found it difficult to make a decision. To not compromise would be to set a precedent, which, under nghen Daoist’s instigation, would indeed be sowhat challenging. But if he compromised, Chen Yangqi had already promised Yang Chen and couldn’t go back on his word, otherwise, where would his credibility lie in the future?
Chen Yangqi was caught in a dilemma. Just as he was about to explode, Yang Chen suddenly said, “Sect Leader, I don’t need this special privilege. The seniors are right, these privileges need to be linked to contributions. I am willing to earn all this through my own strength. If I reluctantly receive these privileges but in the future face the bla from others, I would not be willing to see that.”
Yang Chen could see that if this continued, even if Chen Yangqi managed to protect his special privilege with his position as Sect Leader, it would definitely ignite the anger of many people and put him in a difficult position. This was actually what nghen Daoist wanted to see happen.
It was better for him to make a choice sooner rather than later. In doing so, he would give Chen Yangqi an out, and while Chen Yangqi might not provide him with any benefits after backing down, it was much better to have the head of the Xuandao Sect satisfied with him than any benefit.
Chen Yangqi felt sowhat embarrassed at this mont, and said, “Yang Chen, I promised to grant you special privileges, but I didn’t expect it would turn out to be breaking my word.”
“Sect Leader, don’t bla yourself. It’s not that you’ve gone back on your word, but that I don’t want it.” Yang Chen said with a smile.
“Good, good, good!” Chen Yangqi had been finding it difficult to save face, but after Yang Chen’s words, he felt his dignity completely restored.
It was just as Yang Chen said – Chen Yangqi didn’t go back on his word; Yang Chen just didn’t want it.
Chen Yangqi was becoming more and more satisfied with Yang Chen. With his hands behind his back, he said, “Yang Chen, although you’ve lost this privilege, as the Sect Leader, I will guarantee your status as a True Inheritor Disciple.”
“Sect Leader, you misunderstand. Just now, when I said I didn’t want it, it wasn’t only the special privileges I didn’t want, but also the status of True Inheritor Disciple. I don’t want that either.” Yang Chen waved his hand.
“What!”
Many people were shocked and dumbfounded, not only Chen Yangqi, but also the Taoists, True God-level experts, including nghen Daoist himself – none of them had expected Yang Chen to make such a choice.
Not wanting the special privileges could be understood as Yang Chen being very clever, knowing what to give up and gain. But not wanting the status of True Inheritor Disciple made people sowhat unable to understand and felt absurd.
What was this little guy thinking?
nghen Daoist stared coldly at Yang Chen, feeling him to be more and more difficult to deal with. At least when Yang Chen let go and didn’t ask for the special privileges, nghen Daoist thought this boy was extraordinary.
Now that he didn’t even want the status of True Inheritor Disciple, nghen Daoist found it even harder to understand Yang Chen’s thoughts and ideas.
Chen Yangqi couldn’t help but ask, “Yang Chen, what do you an by this!”
“Sect Leader, don’t misunderstand. It’s not that I don’t want the status of True Inheritor Disciple, but that I’m worried about getting it and making so people think you are biased towards , unable to convince them wholeheartedly. Instead, I will use my real strength and contributions to regain the status of True Inheritor Disciple. At that ti, no one should be dissatisfied.” Yang Chen said.
His aning was simple.
As soon as it ca out, it was directed at nghen Daoist, telling him not to take Yang Chen for granted.
Indeed, he didn’t na nas, but anyone could see who he was referring to.
Yang Chen had never been easy to deal with. If nghen Daoist could attack and target him without regard, then Yang Chen certainly wouldn’t allow himself to be attacked or targeted. By his nature, a counterattack was quite normal.
nghen Daoist knew that Yang Chen was targeting him, and his face turned red. After all, it was already embarrassing for him as an old fellow to target Yang Chen, let alone be counterattacked by Yang Chen, making it even worse.
“Humph, does this little guy really think it’s that easy to achieve the status of True Inheritor Disciple with his abilities? Even Bai Wuheng could only barely manage to beco a True Inheritor Disciple with my help, and without my help, even he wouldn’t have been able to do it. What do you have to succeed, kid?” nghen Daoist thought in his heart.
Not only did he think so, but others also felt that Yang Chen was overestimating himself.
Even Chen Yangqi had such thoughts, although he didn’t say them out loud.
Chen Yangqi believed that becoming a True Inheritor Disciple through genuine strength would indeed be difficult, considering the rules left by the old ancestors from that era. But the tis are different now. Due to the great wars that ensued after the change of eras in Fengyangzhou and the worsening environnt, as well as Xuandao Sect’s own declining strength, the talents they cultivated now were no match for those from the early years.
There were fewer and fewer True Inheritor Disciples, but the rules couldn’t be changed casually. This left Chen Yangqi inevitably sighing.
He now just wanted the rules to weaken Yang Chen’s montum a little, and when the ti was right, reinstate him as a True Inheritor Disciple. After all, it would be a pity to delay a talent like Yang Chen.
“All right, since you think so, as the Sect Leader, I am very pleased and will proceed according to your wishes! Today’s issues regarding you will end here. Although I have not established you as a True Inheritor Disciple, based on your performance in the Heavenly Mystery Space and achieving first place in the assessnt, you still qualify for the status of a Core Disciple. After today, I will order soone to make arrangents.” Chen Yangqi said.
Yang Chen quickly nodded, “I’ll follow the Sect Leader’s instructions.”
Only then did Chen Yangqi turn to the others and say, “In that case, Yang Chen’s matter cos to an end for now. There are still many other disciples left. Everyone, you can take your ti to choose, take your ti to make a decision.”
The disciples suddenly looked expectant, but soon their faces showed dissatisfaction. It was not that no one wanted them, but everyone’s excitent when compared to Yang Chen seed bleak, showing a huge difference.
