Chapter 153: Chapter 153 He Refused

"Father, how can you still accept him as your foster grandson after he has brought such great disgrace upon our Chen Family?"

Chen Baiqiang immediately tried to persuade him.

He simply could not understand, his father, wise as he had always been, how could he suddenly entertain such an absurd idea—could it be that he was becoming senile?

Chen Kun’s face and mouth had been smashed by Qin Chuan’s slap, and at this moment, he couldn’t utter a complete sentence, only mumbling inarticulately. Although it was unclear what he was saying, it was evident that he was vehemently protesting.

Ouyang Ying was even more direct, her face twisted fiercely as she said, "No! He must die!"

Although she still didn’t know the specifics of her sister and nephew’s deaths, based on the fact that Huang Jin had already followed Qin Chuan, it was very likely that their deaths were somehow connected to Qin Chuan.

Moreover, Qin Chuan had ruined her son’s engagement banquet, as long as Qin Chuan lived, Chen Kun would be ridiculed by the people of the province city every single day.

Chen Wang, alone, said nothing, but the look in his eyes as he gazed at Qin Chuan was filled with intense murderous intent.

The smile on Chen Sheng’s face suddenly vanished, and with a raised eyebrow, he said coldly, "Are my words no longer effective, old man?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Baiqiang and the others all showed drastic changes in their expressions, as they naturally sensed Chen Sheng’s anger.

Even though Chen Sheng had already handed over the position of Family Head to Chen Baiqiang, in the Chen Family, he was the law, and with a single sentence, he could replace the Family Head anew.

"Dare not!"

Chen Baiqiang quickly lowered his head and said.

Ouyang Ying also hurriedly closed her mouth, not even daring to breathe loudly.

The smile returned to Chen Sheng’s face, and with a twinkle in his eye, he looked at Qin Chuan and said, "Aside from what was mentioned earlier, if you are willing to change your surname to Chen, it’s not impossible for you to one day succeed as the Chen Family’s Patriarch."

This time, the surprise of the crowd was even more profound, with all faces filled with disbelief.

If they didn’t know of his condition, even the members of the Chen Family would suspect he might really be suffering from senile dementia.

Since ancient times, in major families, bloodline inheritance has always been of utmost importance. Even if Chen Sheng favored Qin Chuan, Qin Chuan was not of the Chen bloodline.

The Xiao Family members sitting at the back tables were also completely dumbfounded at this time.

Xiao Qing’s face had become uglier than ever, she had thought for sure that Qin Chuan would die today, but she hadn’t expected Chen Sheng to appear and actually consider taking him as his foster grandson.

In order to marry Xiao Mengyi into the Chen Family, the Xiao Family had thoroughly offended Qin Chuan. Once Qin Chuan truly became a member of the Chen Family, he would definitely bear no goodwill towards the Xiao Family.

As a result, all the efforts of the Xiao Family would have been in vain.

Ye Qingwan watched Chen Sheng with a cold expression, a hint of sarcasm playing at the corners of her mouth.

She knew Chen Sheng had seen something, but only the tip of the iceberg. If Chen Sheng knew the reality of Qin Chuan’s situation, he wouldn’t be making such a foolish offer.

How could you, a noble house from the East Sea Province City, be qualified to grant a surname to a King Realm Strong?

The Chen Family, simply does not deserve it!

Just when everyone thought that Qin Chuan would certainly agree, the corners of Qin Chuan’s mouth lifted slightly, tracing a trace of mocking curve: "You want me to change my surname?"

Chen Sheng said cheerfully, "The future position of the Patriarch of the Chen Family cannot be given to someone with a different surname, can it?"

Qin Chuan asked again, "Even if I changed my surname to Chen, I would still not be of the Chen bloodline."

Chen Sheng said with a smile, "What’s the use of having a pure bloodline if there are still so many incompetents among them? As long as you bear the name Chen, as long as you acknowledge yourself as a member of the Chen Family, that is enough!"

Qin Chuan looked deeply at Chen Sheng, this old fox who managed to bring the Chen Family from a minor clan to the pinnacle of power in the province city, certainly had extraordinary abilities.

This kind of person, was also the most fearsome.

He was very clear that once he refused, Chen Sheng would definitely not let him go.

Chen Sheng seemed not the least bit worried about Qin Chuan’s refusal, still with a full face of smiles, he said, "Young man, you can give your answer now, right?"

Anger on Chen Baiqiang’s face was almost palpable, his eyes glaring at Qin Chuan without blinking.

Other members of the Chen Family also felt the same, their faces filled with hostility. They couldn’t accept letting an outsider join the Chen Family, especially one who could qualify to become the future head of the Chen Family.

If it weren’t for the fear of Chen Sheng’s overwhelming power within the family, they would have definitely stood up to oppose him.

Xiao Mengyi, whose hand was tightly gripped by Qin Chuan, also became incredibly tense, her heart filled with trepidation.

She didn’t know what Qin Chuan would choose, only that whatever he chose, she would be willing to go along with it.

Just when everyone thought Qin Chuan was about to agree, he suddenly asked with a smile, "If I refuse, would Patriarch Chen not let us leave?"

Chen Sheng said with a smile, "In all these years, no outsider has ever brought such a great humiliation to the Chen Family."

Although he didn’t give a direct answer, everyone understood that if Qin Chuan dared to refuse, then he would never let Qin Chuan off the hook.

"In that case, whatever methods Patriarch Chen still has, feel free to use them!"

After a few seconds of silence, Qin Chuan suddenly said calmly.

As soon as these words came out, the whole venue was shocked!

Even Chen Sheng’s smile froze on his face; he truly hadn’t expected such a response from Qin Chuan.

"Are you sure you don’t want to reconsider?"

Despite this, Chen Sheng quickly regained his composure and spoke.

The difference now was that the smile on his face had completely disappeared.

Qin Chuan remained as calm as ever, his face expressionless as he said, "From the beginning, I never considered joining the Chen Family, nor did I think about changing my surname to Chen, because..."

At this point, he suddenly paused, his gaze sweeping over the crowd before finally returning to Chen Sheng.

This time, the aura around him suddenly surged, as if he were a deity from the ninth heaven, proudly declaring, "Does the Chen Family even deserve it?"

Boom!

His words were like a clap of thunder, exploding within the banquet hall.

"He... he actually refused?"

It took a while for the crowd to snap back to reality, their faces filled with utter disbelief.

Although the Chen Family was only a newly prominent power in East Sea Province City, their display of formidable comprehensive strength that day was undeniable, especially with Chen Wang’s status as the Sixth Disciple of the Sovereign Master, which was bound to elevate the Chen Family to even greater heights.

Despite all this, Qin Chuan still refused.

"He refused, hahahaha..."

Xiao Qing could no longer suppress her emotions and burst out laughing, "Xiao Mengyi, this is the man you fancy, a complete fool."

Chen Sheng’s eyes flashed with terrible rage, staring dead at Qin Chuan as he said, "In that case, you may as well stay here forever!"

The moment his voice fell, Shen Tulie, who was ready to make his move, took a step and charged at Qin Chuan.

"This time, let’s see who can save you?"

Shen Tulie said with an indifferent face. As his words fell, a heavy punch mercilessly descended towards Qin Chuan.

"Scram!"

Just as Shen Tulie’s fist was about to hit Qin Chuan’s chest, at that moment, Qin Chuan suddenly let out a roar of fury.

"Bang!"

Under the horrified gazes of all around, Shen Tulie, the strongest of the Chen Family in the Energizing Skill Middle Stage Realm, flew backward like a kite with a broken string, spitting blood and flying over a dozen meters away.

Just like the fate of the martial artist in the Early Stage Initial Stage Realm before him, he too was sent flying by a single word from Qin Chuan, even the distance he was thrown was the same.
