World Defying And God
Chapter 9



Today, Chen Xiang did not go to ripen the spirit herbs. Early in the morning he went to the large field located in the middle of the Chen family villa, as today was the day to settle the position of the new elder. The position of the patriarch of the Chen family had been vacant for three months, causing the Chen family to be somewhat chaotic.


 


The large field of the Chen family villa was covered with bricks, many important children from the entire Chen family stood there, the number was roughly three hundred, and they were the elite juniors of the Chen family.


 


Everyone from the Chen family surrounded the fields, in the middle of which a large area was left empty, in that place stood five middle-aged men, one of whom was Chen Tianhu.


 


Chen Xiang was also present among the crowd, watching everything happily, ready to jump at any time to help his father compete for the older position.


 


A man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a gray-haired middle-aged man, said while sneering: “Chen Tianhu, the, You know we have one very important condition for the position of the head of the Chen family. ”


 


The name of the middle-aged person was Chen Haohai, he was the commander of the Chen family branch and he was also older than Chen Tianhu while having the cultivation of the seventh level of the mortal martial world. This branch of the Chen family was also quite strong, so he thought he had the qualifications to become the patriarch of the Chen family. At seniority, Chen Xiang needed to call him an uncle.


 


Chen Tianhu's eyes that were filled with anger looked at Chen Haohai and he coldly said: “Of course I know, Elder's relatives should have good potential, to avoid misuse of public resources to spend on their family members. ”


 


Chen Xiang's mother was already dead, because Chen Xiang was reasonable he had never asked about how he died, Chen Tianhu was Chen Xiang's only close relative.


 


“Ha ha... . but your son has no spiritual tone, if you get the position of Elder, you will definitely spend a lot of precious pills on him! Everyone knows all along you have bought a lot of spirit herbs and pills and used them on him, aren't you going to help your son again? “Chen Haohai while laughing said:” Everyone knows he is trash who can never get ahead! ”


Chen Tianhu naturally knew that his son was a genius amongst his peers, he only wanted to hide his strength and not expose it, and otherwise it would cause trouble.


 


“My son can release the fire of True Qi! He had the potential to become an alchemist, who said he was useless? Veterans of the Chen family would probably have another opinion. ” Chen Tianhu said while sneering.


 


At this time everyone started discussing, Chen Xiang turned down the offer to become a spirit master apprentice and the hall was already scattered throughout Wohu city. Although Chen Xiang did not have a spiritual vein, but he could still release True Qi flames and have a chance to become an alchemist.


 


Chen Haohai with a cold snort said: “But he refuses to become an apprentice spirit master and a hall, he does not even have a teacher so he will have trouble becoming an alchemist. ”


 


At this point, Chen Xiang's calm and stable voice was heard by everyone: “I can now fix the low level mortal level ‘Quenching body Dan’. ”


 


Hearing Chen Xiang's words, everyone stared in black, and Chen Haohai started laughing: “Huang Kou Xiao Er, you are only sixteen years old and can purify pills? Don't think lying will help your father fight over the position of elder. Also, lying in front of an elder can lead you with some severe punishments. ”


 


[TLN: Huang kou xiao er is a Chinese proverb I can't find a similar saying in English, used to make fun of someone younger, if you can think of something, if you can think of something, please comment. ]


 


“You think you are the genius of the Yao family? The people from the Yao family belonged to one of the pill makers of the aristocratic family! They have a strong legacy. ”


 


Chen Xiang walked over from within the crowd, with a steady gaze and calm skin color, he put forward the alchemy furnace and looked at that sneering Chen Haohai, saying: “Do you dare to bet with me? I can repair Quenching's body and in one try, if I succeed, how about you apologize to me in front of everyone? ”


 


Chen Haohai started laughing again, and everyone was stunned, they did not even think that Chen Xiang could in this way be arrogant in front of an elder!


 


Chen Haohai was angered by Chen Xiang's attitude, not only was Chen Xiang much younger than him and also opposed him in front of everyone.


 


For this action of Chen Xiang, Chen Tianhu fully supported his son, at this moment he felt even more proud of his answer.


 


Chen Haohai's face was filled with anger, heavily saying: “What are you saying!” Between the conversations, True Qi rushed towards Chen Xiang, but it was actually dispersed by Chen Tianhu.


 


 


Chen Xiang repeated it with a serious face ensuring that no one took it as a joke, let alone his expression was also filled with arrogance. Can a teenager face an elder like this, not many within the Chen family even dared to think of doing something like this.


 


Chen Haohai trembled in anger, he saw Chen Xiang asking with a serious look, he did not dare to obey him immediately, but everyone around was waiting for a response.


 


Chen Xiang watched Chen Haohai carefully, as he continued: “You slandered me in public by declaring me a useless waste, now I want to prove myself, simultaneously make you apologize to me! You as a senior still refuse to bet with me? ”


Chen Haohai wanted to defeat this nonsense from this little brat, but he actually did not dare. After all killing a child from the Chen family was a very serious matter.


 


An old man said: “Because like that, Chen Haohai you bet with him, but kowtow's apology is excluded, after all it's just a few angry words from a bad boy. If he can refine the pill in one attempt, your Chen Haohai will have to compensate accordingly. ”


 


“I agree, if my son loses, I will not fight for the position of patriarch!” Said Chen Tianhu, then nodded his head towards Chen Xiang.


 


Chen Tianhu's words caused an uproar!


 


Chen Haohai while snorting: ” I will bet, if I lose, then I will give him my thousand-year-old blood spirit grass. ”


 


A thousand years of blood grass spirit! Everyone together shouted in a low voice, how could they not be surprised, the blood spirit grass that had grown for thousands of years was an extremely expensive and deep low-tier spirit herb.


 


“Chen Xiang, if you start alchemy now! About how long do you need? ”The old man asked, He is the patriarch of the Chen family and carries a certain prestige.


 


According to everyone's understanding, refining a mortal-level low-tier pill would at least take half a day, the fastest it would take was two or three hours, but now it is being refined by a sixteen year old teenager.


 


“Quickly, we don't need to delay much time!” Between the conversations, Chen Xiang sat cross-legged, and that elder and Chen Haohai came to inspect the alchemy furnace, to prevent Chen Xiang from cheating.


 


“Lower alchemy furnace, it seems to Chen Tianhu that you are very poor!” Chen Haohai started sneering, everyone knew that all of Chen Tianhu's money was spent on Chen Xiang.


 


Chen Xiang finished taking out the herbs from his storage pouch, resetting and examining them. Then he poured the warm True Qi flame inside the furnace and then just put all the herbs inside, each step of him very meticulously.


 


But that True Qi flame also made everyone a little surprised, although many people could release fire to attack but only through some martial skills and fire it could only be released for the purpose of attacking. In simple words they could not control fire as freely as Chen Xiang, only if practicing controlling fire-type exercises, but these exercises were extremely rare and difficult to practice.


 


Chen Xiang continuously poured fire inside the alchemy furnace, at this moment from within the alchemy furnace, the smell of the herbal scent leaked out.


 


An hour ago, everyone saw Chen Xiang's closed eyebrows suddenly start twitching. The audience knew he was in the most important phase, and Chen Haohai who was also watching this started to sweat, he was worried that he would have to hand over the thousand-year-old blood spirit grass if he lost.


Everyone saw smoke drifting out from within the alchemy furnace, and at this moment Chen Xiang also opened his eyes and with an excited expression stood up and said: “Please check. ”


 


“What? Finished in an hour? ”Everyone's expression is full of questions.


 


The elder started to check first! Although he did not know about alchemy, but he was fully aware of the alchemy process, he had carefully watched over Chen Xiang, knowing that Chen Xiang was following certain basic alchemy steps. Although he was unclear about the situation inside the alchemy furnace, but he could feel the heat in the furnace constantly changing, and this change was extremely subtle.


 


Opening the lid of the furnace, everyone smelled a faint aroma of herbs, they were completely familiar with this scent, moreover they also witnessed the refining process, when they saw the elder taking out five snow-white pills, which was very rare, everyone can only cry.
