C239 Keep Your Promise
This caused Zhao Pinghenn to be at a loss for what to do.
If Shen Yih wasn't satisfied with his condition, he could still negotiate with him. However, Shen Yih didn't have the intention to do so, so how could he negotiate with him?
"Alright."
Zhao Pinghenn sighed and said, "Shen Yih, since you are not willing, I will not force you."
"Thank you for your understanding." Shen Yih said.
"But Shen Yih, I got some news. The Chen Family might be interested in killing you. I think this news won't come out of nowhere. I hope you can pay more attention to it." Zhao Pinghenn reminded.
"Thank you for your reminder, Patriarch Zhao. I will pay more attention to it." A cold light flashed across Shen Yih's eyes as he nodded slightly.
He wasn't surprised that the Chen Family would attack him.
Whether it was his identity or the matter of the Tomb of King, the Chen Family wouldn't sit by and watch a person who had lost their face continue to live. Especially his identity. With the channels of the Chen Family, he would be able to guess it sooner or later. Even if they couldn't guess it, they could still make a connection.
For a noble family like the Chen Family, they would rather kill the wrong person than let someone who might take revenge on their family get away with it.
However, since Shen Yih had the courage to kill Zhu Chen, he had never been afraid of the Chen Family's revenge.
"Shen Yih, the matter of the Chen Family is no small matter. If you change your mind, our Zhao Family will welcome you at any time, and we are willing to provide you with any help." Zhao Pinghenn reminded Shen Yih. He already had the intention of letting Shen Yih join their Zhao Family.
"Thank you, Clan Chief Zhao. If I meet someone from the Zhao Family in the War of Celestial Chosen, I will do my best to help." Shen Yih stood up and said, "If there's nothing else, I will take my leave now."
"Alright, I hope you can reconsider. "Don't ask. Send Shen Yih off for me." Zhao Pinghenn sighed to himself.
He understood that Shen Yih did not reject him directly, but when he said this, it was obvious that he had rejected his invitation.
Seeing that Shen Yih had really left, Zhao Pinghenn shook his head with anger and a smile. His heart was filled with helplessness. This Shen Yih really had a beginning and an end to his life, and his talent was indeed heaven defying.
It was a pity that this kind of talent and character wasn't used by the Zhao Family. However, it was more than enough to exchange his information for Shen Yih's willingness to help the Zhao Family. With Shen Yih's character, since he had agreed to help, he would definitely keep his promise.
"Father, the Chen Family won't really attack Shen Yih, right?" After Shen Yih left, Zhao Bingming asked nervously.
When he saw that Shen Yih refused his father's invitation again and again, but still didn't agree to join the Zhao Family, Zhao Bingming's heart was filled with regret. At the same time, he felt sour. However, when he found out that the Chen Family was going to attack Shen Yih, his heart was immediately stirred.
"It's very likely." Zhao Pinghenn nodded and said. Although what he got was just a rumor, the source of this news was still very reliable. Furthermore, the way the Zhao Family handled things was very likely to be true.
"What should we do now? Doesn't that mean that Shen Yih is in danger?" Zhao Bingming knew very well how powerful the Chen Family was. He said nervously, "Father, can't the Zhao Family help him?"
"I do want to help him. It's a pity to see such a genius fall, but we can't help him." Zhao Pinghenn sighed and said, "If he is willing to join our Zhao Family, we have a reason to help him. However, we don't have any reason now. "
"He is my friend. Is this reason not enough?" Zhao Bingming said anxiously.
"It is not enough. This is not a reason at all." Zhao Pinghenn shook his head and said, "If we insist on helping him at this time, it will be a direct confrontation with the Chen Family. And our Zhao Family is still no match for the Chen Family. "
Zhao Bingming still wanted to say something, but he understood that there was no point in saying anything at this moment. The Zhao Family would never confront the Chen Family because of a single person, especially since this person had rejected their offer. Zhao Bingming understood that what his father said was right. With the current strength of the Zhao Family, if they really went against the Chen Family, the Zhao Family would surely be the one to lose.
However, could it be that he had to watch helplessly as Shen Yih got into trouble?
Why was Shen Yih so stupid? If he agreed to the request of the Zhao Family, then there would be a reason to protect him. Although the Zhao Family was no match for the Chen Family, they still had the strength to protect someone.
...
At this moment, Shen Yih had already rushed back to the Xiahou Family after leaving the Zhao Family.
Tan Qi had already returned to the Xiahou Family when Zhao Bingming invited Shen Yih. Naturally, the Xiahou Family had heard from Tan Qi that Shen Yih had been invited by the Zhao family.
Xiahou Guang and Xiahou Lieh were like ants on a hot pan, running around anxiously.
They understood that Zhao Pinghenn suddenly invited Shen Yih not because of a sudden impulse, but because of the War of Celestial Chosen.
Although the Zhao Family was a first-class noble family now, amongst the younger generation, only Zhao Biewen could be considered a genius of the Zhao Family.
As for Zhao Bingming, there was still a huge gap between him and those geniuses.
With the strength of Zhao Family, it was highly likely that Shen Yih would agree to the invitation.
Compared to the Zhao Family, the Xiahou Family was not only lacking in resources, they were also lacking in resources. The key was that there was someone else. With the Zhao Family's status, they would participate in the War of Celestial Chosen and join the War of Celestial Chosen with the Xiahou Family's status. The difference in treatment was like heaven and earth.
Xiahou Guang didn't believe that Shen Yih could withstand this temptation. Especially now that Xiahou Guang had obtained the rules of the War of Celestial Chosen, he became even more worried.
"Father, you don't have to worry. Brother Shen Yih isn't that kind of person." Although Xiahou Lieh was also anxious in his heart, he still trusted Shen Yih's character very much.
"I also believe that he is not that kind of person." Xiahou Guang said bitterly, "But Lie'er. Our Xiahou Family can't afford to bet. Everything that our family can take out... It's not even comparable to the tiny bit that was leaked out from the gap between the fingers of the Zhao Family. What do you think Shen Yih should choose when the time comes? "
Xiahou Lieh was silent for a moment, but he still shook his head firmly and said, "Father, we have already taken out everything we have. I bet with Brother Shen Yih's character, he won't abandon our Xiahou Family at this time."
"I hope so. Otherwise, our Xiahou Family will really be finished." Xiahou Guang shook his head helplessly.
All of their hopes were now placed on Shen Yih. If Shen Yih really abandoned them... * Hong Long...... *
"Hehe, you all have bet everything on me. How can I bear to let you all lose?" At this moment, a soft laughter rang out.
"Brother Shen Yih, you are back?" Xiahou Lieh's face lit up, and he quickly opened the door. He saw Shen Yih standing firmly at the door with a smile on his face.
When he saw Shen Yih, Xiahou Lieh's heart relaxed and he subconsciously said, "Brother Shen Yih, I thought you wouldn't come back."
Shen Yih had seen through all of Xiahou Lieh's thoughts, but he didn't care. He said calmly, "I promised to help you. I will keep my word and keep my promise until the end."
"Haha, I believe in brother Shen Yih. You are definitely not someone who abandoned our Xiahou Family." Xiahou Lieh said with a laugh.
With the talent that Shen Yih had shown, if he left the Xiahou Family, he would certainly obtain better resources. No family would refuse Shen Yih's participation. Even if it was the Chen Family, they would choose to let bygones be bygones as long as Shen Yih nodded his head.
However, if the Xiahou Family left Shen Yih, it would be completely over. They might not even be able to protect their status as nobles.
Under such circumstances, the fact that Shen Yih could still stand firmly on the side of the Xiahou Family showed the principle of Shen Yih's character.
"Shen Yih, thank you for standing firmly on the Xiahou Family's side at this time." Xiahou Guang took a deep breath and said with the same determination, "Shen Yih, if you have any use for the Xiahou Family, I, Xiahou Guang, swear in the name of the Xiahou Family that I will go through hell and water and die without hesitation!"
"Patriarch Xiahou, there is no need to make such a heavy vow." Shen Yih shook his head and said. He had only kept his promise and had never thought about getting anything from the Xiahou Family.
"Hehe... "Haha, this is what I should do. You have saved our Xiahou Family's life." Xiahou Guang was relieved of the heavy burden in his heart and felt much more relaxed.
He looked at Shen Yih from head to toe. Just now, Xiahou Guang was too excited because of Shen Yih's return. It was only at this moment that he noticed that Shen Yih's aura had become stronger. He said in shock, "Shen Yih, I saw that the Aura on your body has become stronger. Could it be that your strength has increased again?"
"It has increased a little." Shen Yih nodded and said.
"Haha, if that's the case, I have more confidence in War of Celestial Chosen. It will be the time for the War of Celestial Chosen to register in a few days' time. You will surely amaze the world with a single feat." Xiahou Guang laughed and said, "This time, the registration location is in Loong Yuan City. Shen Yih, you should prepare early. We will set off immediately at that time."
"Sure." Shen Yih nodded and said.
Shen Yih's eyes kept blinking. Because of the Chen Family, the War of Celestial Chosen would not be so simple. However, the Chen Family wanted to deal with him, and he didn't want to let them go either.
Of course, Shen Yih didn't explain this to Xiahou Guang.
The Xiahou Family was still too weak in front of a giant like the Chen Family.
