"Haha, don't get me wrong, I'm responsible for taking care of you."
Xiao Chen saw Xiong Zhuyu's reaction and said with a smile.
"..."
No matter how red Xiong Zhuyu’s face is, who is responsible?
"Oh, I will take good care of Zhuyu."
Li Hanhou nodded.
"hehe."
Xiao Chen and others all laughed. Who said this guy was stupid... Look, he is called "Zhuyu". He is not stupid at all.
"It's almost time, we should go there."
After chatting for a while, Ye Ziyi looked at the time and said.
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Dahan, go to Lao Xiao's place and take your things with you..."
"good."
Li Hanhou responded and went out.
Afterwards, the group left the guest room and headed to the martial arts arena.
Today's ceremony of recognizing ancestors and returning to the clan is right next to the martial arts field...the ancestral hall is also there.
After Xiao Chen heard about it, he was a little surprised as to why the ancestral hall was next to the martial arts arena.
Nangong Yuan said that this was because the ancestors of the Nangong family could see generations of Nangong family practicing martial arts... They would be very happy to have spirits in heaven.
This statement made Xiao Chen stunned, but thinking about it again, it seems that there is really nothing wrong with it.
"what's the situation?"
Xiao Yi looked at Li Hanhou and Xiong Zhuyu and asked in a low voice.
"I heard that Xiong Jinggang wants to preach the Dharma during the meal?"
"If the statement is false, I want to see how strong Li Hanhou is."
Xiao Chen smiled and said simply.
"This guy...is quite thoughtful."
After listening, Xiao Yi muttered.
"They say a simple mind leads to well-developed limbs... His limbs are so well-developed, but his mind is not simple."
"Haha, I didn't react at the time."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"It's fate, I'm even vomiting blood, but I can still talk and laugh..."
Xiao Yi looked at it a few more times and smiled.
"The fate of the silly boy has arrived."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
The group of people chatted and came to the martial arts field.
At this time, there were already many people here, chatting in small groups.
The martial arts performance field is not small, but there are also many people coming there, and it is also decorated with lights and colorful decorations, making it look very festive.
"Hmph, what is the Nangong family doing? Can't they hold a wedding for Xiao Chen and Ling Yatou here?"
Ye Tianlong was a little unhappy and said to Ye Jing next to him.
"Brother is right, it's too arrogant... Our Ye family doesn't do this, right?"
Ye Jing suppressed his laughter and said.
"Otherwise, you can talk to Xiao Chen and ask him to go to Ye's house again, and we'll have a big show."
"You old boy, did you let Xiao Chen bribe you?"
Ye Tianlong squinted at Ye Jing, feeling annoyed.
"Hahaha, no, no."
Ye Jing laughed.
"Brother, calm down, we are all here to see what tricks the Nangong family can pull off."
"Um."
Ye Tianlong nodded.
"Just watch."
"Xiao Chen is here, let's go and say hello."
Ye Jing looked in one direction and said.
"Why, as an elder, I still have to take the initiative to say hello to him?"
Ye Tianlong stared.
"Shouldn't he come to me?"
"Yes, yes...but the ancestors of the Xiao family are here, do we have to say hello to them?"
Ye Jing was helpless.
"Okay, we are going to say hello to the ancestors of the Xiao family. Don't pay attention to that kid Xiao Chen."
Ye Tianlong nodded, put his hands behind his back, and walked over.
"hehe."
Ye Jing looked at Ye Tianlong's back, smiled, and quickly followed.
"Old Ancestor Xiao..."
When he came closer, Ye Tianlong showed a smile.
"Well, Tianlong, where is Ye Xing?"
Xiao Yi nodded and asked.
"I'm chatting with someone over there."
Ye Tianlong answered, feeling a little uncomfortable.
If it weren't for Xiao Yi and others from the older generation, he would be considered an older generation in the world.
On weekdays, who calls him ‘Tianlong’?
"Mr. Ye..."
Xiao Chen noticed Ye Jing winking at him. He was startled for a moment, then realized it and stepped forward with a smile on his face, respectfully.
"Ye Lao? What, you call me grandpa when you call me, and you call me Ye Lao when you call me?"
Ye Tianlong looked at Xiao Chen and said lightly.
"Why, is it different between closeness and distance?"
"No way, I will shout whatever you want me to shout."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"If you really want to talk about intimacy... I always call you 'Lao Xiao'. This is the most intimate title. How about I call you 'Lao Ye'?"
"..."
Ye Tianlong wanted to curse, but thought of Xiao Yi beside him, so he held back.
"Haha, it's just a title. I'll call you 'Grandpa' from now on."
Xiao Chen said.
"You know, even if I'm an old fortune teller, I don't call him that."
"Hmph, didn't you say it was just a title?"
Ye Tianlong hummed, but felt very happy.
Soon, people came over to greet Xiao Chen one after another, saying "Master Xiao" one after another.
Xiao Chen responded one by one, saying a few words to everyone he knew, those he didn't know, and those he was familiar with.
By the time Jiang Lingyun and the big guys arrived, Xiao Chen's face had already frozen with laughter.
"Sect Master Jiang, we are all familiar with each other, so there's no need to laugh, right? You're already laughing."
Xiao Chen wiped his face twice and said.
"hehe."
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Jiang Lingyun and others all laughed.
"Master Xiao, you are also a big boss now, there is no need for you."
"That's right, you have to have the airs you should have."
"Oh...it's different. After all, I am younger and have a lower seniority."
Xiao Chen sighed.
"Strength doesn't match age."
"..."
Jiang Lingyun and others' smiles froze. Listening to these words, why is something wrong?
Is this showing off?
They looked at each other and changed the subject.
This topic cannot be continued any longer.
Xiao Chen noticed that there were really very few people who came to chat with Jiang Lingyun and the others.
You have to be at least half a step innate to be able to do it, and even the casual cultivators have not even had half a step of innate talent.
Obviously, the status of Jiang Lingyun and the others put a lot of pressure on the casual cultivators.
Even though... they are already strong.
Xiao Chen thought for a while and felt that there was no need to put on airs or set up a persona. He was not very old and it was not good to act aloof.
What's more... he still has a dream of becoming a martial arts leader.
Too many people are paying attention to this move.
More than ten minutes later, people from the Nangong family arrived.
Xiao Chen looked around and found no Nangong Ling. Even Ye Ziyi, who had just come with them, was gone now.
As people from the Nangong family appeared, and after a brief exchange of greetings, the auspicious moment arrived.
"Open the door."
As the innate ancestor of the Nangong family, Nangong Ting's status is undoubtedly the highest.
After he finished speaking, the red lacquer door of the ancestral hall slowly opened.
Xiao Chen looked carefully and saw that the space inside was not small, and he could see tablets one by one.
These are all the ancestors of the Nangong family.
Nangong Ting walked in slowly, lit some incense, and knelt down respectfully.
"Recognize your ancestors and return them to your sect..."
Xiao Yi said slowly.
"Speaking of which, when your boy returned to the Xiao family, there were still a lot fewer procedures."
"Isn't it just a program? It's as long as it makes sense."
Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yi and said.
"Can this be the same? You young people all pay attention to a sense of ritual, but your ancestors don't?"
Xiao Yi stared.
"I'll make it up next time."
"Ah? Make up for it next time? Do you want to kick me out and make me recognize you again? Or what?"
Xiao Chen was stunned and asked.
