Chapter 607: Xiao Chen Lives Up to Second Brother’s Faith!
Xiao Chen stared at the figure blocking his path, his heart pounding with emotion.
He knew that everything Ye Feng had done was to ensure no one in the hall would dare underestimate him.
These people were his elders, the ones he would normally bow to in passing. And just moments ago, when he entered the hall, nobody had greeted him or risen to welcome him. Their silence had made their attitude clear. They thought Xiao Chen was unworthy, incapable of inheriting the position of family head.
Ye Feng’s domineering stance and actions sent a clear message to everyone: Xiao Chen was not to be underestimated. He was the rightful heir of the Xiao family.
Some people, unable to withstand the mounting pressure, were the first to stand up.
The first was the elder at the entrance, only at the Nascent Soul Realm. Once he stood up, the next person followed.
Ye Feng’s oppressive aura didn’t single anyone out; it pressed down on everyone. Perhaps only Xiao Chen’s Elder Grandfather, Xiao Ding, could remain seated, unmoved.
Creak! Creak!
Chairs scraped against the floor as one by one, people rose from their seats. Some had to stand with the aid of canes, sweat streaming down their faces, their clothes clinging to their backs.
