They had almost forgotten about Yang Chen’s past in the Yang family while they were just talking about righteousness and propriety.

Indeed, it seemed that they had never given anything to Yang Chen.

Subconsciously treating Yang Chen as if he was another genius of the Yang family, but he was not. Yang Chen was an anomaly in the family. This child had been idle in the past, and nobody thought he had any potential to be cultivated. Naturally, he was not given any resource allocation. He was even treated like a discarded piece and not taken seriously.

Now, talking about cultivation, isn’t it laughable?

Yang Chen’s tone was tough, his cold gaze swept over everyone, finally stopping at Elder Yang Ba. He said solemnly, “As for the Yang family cultivating me? I apologize, but I cannot recall the Yang family ever cultivating me.”

Elder Yang Ba felt as if his tail had been stepped on when he saw Yang Chen’s eyes on him, and his anger surged like a raging fire. He shouted, “Yang Chen, you are going against all principles! As a member of the Yang family, do you not have a sense of family honor? You have to understand that without the Yang family’s support, what could you obtain?”

He couldn’t sit still when Yang Jinhe promised to give Yang Chen 20% of the resources.

You have to know that when those geniuses entered Monster Beast Mountain in the past, the resources they brought back were to be taken away by the high-level members of the clan, accounting for 30% of the total.

The Clan Leader would get 10%, while the other 60% would be left for the cultivation of the next generation within the clan.

If Yang Chen were to take away 10% or 20% directly, it would not be guaranteed that the resources they would receive would not be cut.

How could he agree to that?

But he forgot.

If Yang Chen didn’t enter Monster Beast Mountain, where would the treasures inside flow to the Yang family?

“A sense of honor? Ha, Elder Yang Ba, you really have a sharp mouth. First, you accused me of going against principles, and then you criticize me for having no sense of family honor? So, I ask the high-ranking members of the Yang family present, have you ever made me, Yang Chen, feel any warmth from the family since I was born?”

Yang Chen’s tone was cold, “I’m sorry, but I have never felt like I am part of a family. So, when it comes to a sense of honor, I apologize, Eighth Elder, but I think you should say that to someone else. Also, if you genuinely think that my participation in the Hundred Clans Trial Battle is not suitable for the Yang family, you can let someone else go instead. To be honest, I’m not interested in doing something arduous that gets me no gratitude. Truthfully, if it wasn’t for the sake of Elder Yang and Elder Yang Si, I might not have agreed to participate in this Hundred Clans Trial Battle.”

In the Yang family, the only ones who ever cultivated him were Elder Yang and Elder Yang Si.

Although what Elder Yang and Elder Yang Si did was virtually meaningless, Yang Chen still felt the presence of the family from them.

Other people? Yang Chen couldn’t feel it at all.

If that’s the case, why bring it up? Is it a joke?

He would struggle to participate in the Hundred Clans Trial Battle, go to Monster Beast Mountain, and then have his resources allocated at the mercy of others. Did they really think he was someone to be easily bullied?

“You said it yourself.” Elder Yang Ba snorted, “Clan Leader, you heard it too…”

“Shut up!” Yang Jinhe glared at Elder Yang Ba with cold eyes, “If Yang Chen doesn’t participate, can you find a replacement? If Elder Yang Ba thinks there’s a better candidate who can achieve good results in the Hundred Clans Trial

Battle, feel free to suggest.’

“1…”

Eighth Master Yang instantly wilted.

Where could he find a replacement?

It seemed that aside from Yang Chen, there really was no one else in the Yang family who could achieve good results in the Hundred Clans Trial Battle.

Yang Jinhe also thought that Elder Yang Ba’s brain must have been damaged.

If they couldn’t enter Monster Beast Mountain first, how could they talk about the distribution of benefits and interests?ln fact, who else in the Yang family could achieve good results in the Hundred Clans Trial Battle besides Yang Chen?

Originally, Yang Wu was already wasted, and the remaining geniuses had only reached the middle stage of the Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer at most, without encountering any big scenes. In the Hundred Clans Trial Battle, they would be content if they were not eliminated early, let alone getting into the top 30.

Eighth Master Yang still felt unconvinced and snorted coldly: “I reserve my opinion.”

Yang Jin He let out a sigh: “Yang Chen, I know you are unhappy. The Yang family indeed owes you an apology for what we have done before. That’s why I gave you such high conditions. Of course, whether you can grasp it or not depends on you.”

Actually, didn’t he have some regrets in his heart too?

If he had paid more attention to Yang Chen in the beginning, or if he had not refused him at the door when Elder Yang brought him over, would they have ended up bargaining like this today?

If he had known that the genius Li Youyan valued was actually Yang Chen, he would not have turned him away under any circumstances, right?

If he had given Yang Chen a slight sense of warmth from the family, perhaps Yang Chen wouldn’t have made such demands today, discussing the distribution of benefits directly. In the final analysis, they hadn’t given Yang Chen enough treatment, which made his demands today reasonable.

Seeing Yang Jin He being so polite, Yang Chen naturally wouldn’t be rude. After all, he was still a junior in the Yang family. He bowed his hand calmly and said, “Clan Leader, you are too kind. I, Yang Chen, will do my best.”

“Haha, it’s good that you have the confidence. Your strength will directly affect the results of the Hundred Clans Trial Battle. The storage bag here is the cultivation resources I give you as the Clan Leader. Although it may not bring you a significant improvement in a short time, it is still a great treasure for cultivation. I hope you can make further progress in your martial arts cultivation before the Hundred Clans Trial Battle.” Yang Jin He said kindly.

Yang Chen could naturally understand Yang Jin He’s intentions, and there was some apology in his words. He had no reason not to accept it.

However, just as he was about to reach out and take it, Elder Yang Ba inappropriately stood up again: “Clan Leader, these resources were painstakingly collected by our clan. If this Yang Chen can achieve good results in the Trial Battle, I will have nothing to say if you give him these resources. But he hasn’t even started participating yet, and you’re already giving him such generous rewards. I’m afraid he may be good for nothing.”

Seeing Elder Yang Ba being so aggressive, Second Master could not sit idly by any longer: “Old Eight, don’t go too far.”

Fourth Master also said coldly: “Eighth Elder, your words are somewhat excessive.”

Yang Jin He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

When he opened his eyes, they were filled with anger, and he shouted angrily: “How dare you!”

With the force of a Spirit Martial Realm, this angry shout sounded like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, exploding in the hall and making everyone present feel dizzy. This fully demonstrated Yang Jin He’s strength, and for a moment, the entire scene was silent.

Or do you have any objections to me being the Clan Leader? Since you said these resources were painstakingly collected by the clan, does it mean that I don’t even have the right to distribute them?”

He gave these resources to Yang Chen in order to help him achieve better results in the Hundred Clans Trial Battle. As long as Yang Chen entered the Monster Beast Mountain, the clan would naturally be rich in heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

However, Elder Yang Ba had a shortsighted view and was aggressive due to factional disputes. How could Yang Jin He not see through his schemes?

Under Yang Jin He’s reprimand, Elder Yang Ba trembled all over and quickly apologized, frightened, “No, I dare not. Clan Leader, I misspoke.”

“I hope it won’t happen again. Otherwise, I don’t mind replacing you as the Eighth Elder with someone else.” Yang Jin He looked at him coldly.

Eighth Master Yang hadn’t expected such an outcome.

As the Eighth Elder of the Yang family, his words would have been taken seriously by Yang Jin He on normal days. Why would he turn against him for an

“unproven genius?”

But he realized that he was wrong.

Yang Jin He actually turned against him for Yang Chen’s sake.

Was his status lower than Yang Chen’s?
