Chapter 825: 825
After Jiao Xiu finished talking, he vanished from the main seat and charged toward Chen Xiu . He looked like a blur full of divine presence . Even if Chen Xiu had god father's order letter, as long as Jiao Xiu controlled his strength and made sure that Chen Xiu did not die, he would be fine .
Inside the halls, the elders looked over coldly and stood up one after another while emitting half god presence . In the meantime, Ming Wang, who was standing in a corner, watched Chen Xiu, afraid that he would escape from the great hall . After all, there was the precedent of last time .
The youths outside the hall looked at Chen Xiu's back and felt the divine pressure coming from inside . Their complexion went pale, and they began to ridicule him again .
"He sure is shameless, even daring to talk to Patriarch like that . He sure is reckless . "
"He made a trip to the city lord's mansion and only obtained an order letter, yet dares to speak so much . The order letter can only keep his life, so he should forget about anything else . "
"Yeah . . . "
"What kind of situation is this!"
Everyone had already decided on what would happen next in their brain . Since Chen Xiu had intruded upon Patriarch's dignity, he would be turned into a cripple with one palm and thrown into the spirit prison to be tortured . He would then remain there until his death .
But when that blur arrived in front of Chen Xiu, the whole storyline was thrown out of the window, since the blur was stopped .
"What happened, the order letter which Chen Xiu has could resist Patriarch's attack? No wonder he dared to be so rampant!"
"So while Chen Xiu holds god father's order letter, nothing can happen to him?"
The group of boys and girls kept chatting, but the scene inside the great hall was completely different . The elders sitting on both sides had seen everything clearly . They were startled, and the half god presence which they were maintaining until then dissipated . Ming Wang, who was standing behind Chen Xiu, blinked slowly, not knowing what to say .
Chen Xiu had raised his finger and stopped the offense of the blur, forcing it to stay still in the air .
A divine presence erupted forth in the great hall, and the blur turned into Jiao Xiu . He looked at Chen Xiu in astonishment before managing to spit out a few words after a long time, "You have become a god?"
When Chen Xiu heard his words, a large smile appeared on his face . His black hair began to fly without wind, and his presence swelled until it reached the level of a god . He looked at Jiao Xiu full of astonishment and coldly said, "So you can become a god, but I cannot?"
After saying that, Chen Xiu extended his finger and congealed a bit of divine power, then jabbed his finger forward .
Jiao Xiu was forced back by that attack and fell to the ground a meter away .

When the elders sitting on both sides sensed the divine presence, their complexions turned ashen . They were left speechless by the sight of Patriarch Jiao Xiu being thrown back by a branch disciple .
How could they have criticized a branch disciple who had already become a god? After disciples in the clan became gods, their position would not be lower than that of Patriarch . Since usually it were the direct descendants who become gods, they would succeed the previous Patriarch and would be greatly respected .
Something like a branch family descendant becoming a god had never happened before .
The four elders as well as Ming Wang were all half gods, so when they saw a god, they all had to bow and salute . How could they go and say that Chen Xiu did not understand the rules? The only person in the main hall who could contend against Chen Xiu was Patriarch .
What sort of absurd situation was that!
Jiao Xiu's complexion became increasingly more unsightly . The branch family descendant standing in front of him had killed his son yet surprisingly also become a god . He could not dare to believe it because of the intense discrepancy between what was and what should be . After being silent for a long time, he stood up and asked, "Did you use Ming Xiu's contribution to obtain the chance to become a god?"
"Hah, this senior already told you that Ming Xiu was killed by Lakshmi City's holy daughter and it is completely unrelated to me . If you want to take revenge, then go find that holy daughter . Don't keep repeating things incessantly . Isn't there anything else that you can say!"
When the young boys and girls outside the palace heard that, each and every one of them was so startled that they did not know what to say . Incredulity filled their hearts . When had a branch family descendant dared to say such things? Ming Wang and the four elders remained silent, looking at the rampant Chen Xiu while thinking different things .

Over the years, when any of the patriarchs of the four great clans abdicated their position, they would enter the Elder Council which had the highest authority in the clan and become its member . The elders of the Elder Council were completely different from the four great elders sitting in the hall .
Each person entering the Elder Council was at least a god . Every time, the patriarch's position would be inherited by the previous patriarch's son, generation after generation, continuing until that day . So it could be said that most of the gods in the elder council were seniors of Jiao Xiu's bloodline .
Even if Chen Xiu was rewarded by god father and became a god, he was still a member of Morrow Clan . If nothing unexpected happened, he would be raised to the status of direct descendant and become a member of the Elder Council .
But Chen Xiu had been rampant despite being a branch family descendant, abandoning the young master, so after entering the Elder Council, he probably wouldn't have a good future .
It was even possible that he might disappear .
Jiao Xiu snapped back to attention and looked at the high-spirited Chen Xiu .
"Sure enough, you are arrogant to the extreme after being awarded the opportunity to become a god by god father," he said in a cold voice . "Since you have become a god, you will become a direct descendant and enter the Elder Council . But before the process has been completely, you are still a branch family descendant of Morrow Clan .
"Oh? I forgot to tell something to Lord Patriarch . From the moment I left the city lord's mansion, I have stopped being a member of the Morrow Clan . I request that you understand this point clearly . Without the relationship of the clan, we are on equal terms . "

After hearing those words, Ming Wang and the four elders found something to put him down with, and they released their half god presence in succession before shouting loudly, "Audacious! You possess the blood of Morrow Clan, so even if you become a god, you will still be a clansman of Morrow Clan . If you continue being so arrogant, we will have to request the Elder Council to restrain you . "
Jiao Xiu looked at the high-spirited Chen Xiu, thinking in his heart that god father had assisted Chen Xiu in becoming a god instead of giving him an order letter which ensured his survival . That meant that there was still an opportunity . After all, the order letter represented god father's command, so regardless of whoever it was from the four great clans, not one of them could violate it .
If there was an order letter saying that Chen Xiu must live, then he definitely had to survive .
But if god father had given the usual reward of helping him become a god, then it wasn't related to his life or death .
"Seems like I must request the elders of the Elder Council to put the new god of Morrow Clan on trial . "
Jiao Xiu's eyes began to shine . While carefully watching Chen Xiu, he waved his hand toward Ming Wang to make a trip to the Elder Council .
Before could follow his orders, Chen Xiu extended his hand and stopped him .
"Not necessary . If you want to use the Elder Council to deal with me, then you have made the mistake of counting your chickens before they hatched . Jiao Xiu, hear me properly . I am no longer a member of Morrow Clan not because I left the clan, but because god father has adopted me as his sixth son, bestowing the name of Ashchen on me . In terms of seniority, you all must address me as lord ancestor . "
After Chen Xiu said that, a charming smile appeared on his face .
Everyone turned silent, including those outside and inside the hall . Their frozen expressions stayed stuck as if they had been glued there .
