Big Son-In-Law

In the high-class ward, Chen Qingchuan was sitting next to the bed. Chen Zhenghe was lying on the bed, telling him about the past between the Chen family and the Ye family.    

    

"The conflict between the Chen family and the Ye Family has been accumulating for more than half a year. But before explaining the situation, I need to tell you something else. It's a power outside of the business world that you don't know about..."    

    

Powers outside of business? Chen Qingchuan really didn't know much about these things. As far as he knew, the Chen family's power outside business should be referring to the structure of official relationships, as well as some connections between some powers that couldn't be seen in public. After all, they were such a big business tycoon, and they had the most contact with money. Naturally, they had to take care of all aspects.    

    

As for the power outside of business that Second Uncle spoke of...    

    

Without needing Chen Qingchuan to ask, Chen Zhenghe had already spoken.    

    

"A huge business power wants to obtain eternal existence. It's not possible to rely on ordinary means, a business force without self-protection. That's a pig, a pig that can be slaughtered at will... The fatter it was, the easier it was to be slaughtered. Our Chen family also has our own forces in the dark. Now, it's time for you to know. You should have heard of the Fire State, right? "    

    

Chen Qingchuan had heard of the Fire State. It was located in the southwest corner of the empire. It was like a lone island, but its territory was much bigger than an ordinary island. Its total area was equivalent to the total area of three provinces of the empire.    

    

This island was covered in burning clouds because of the floating fire in the sky all year round. It was like the surroundings were burning with flames, hence its name. However, the Fire State's fame wasn't because of this, but because its area was too large. It attracted the covetous eyes of the surrounding countries, including the Empire.    

    

However, what everyone wanted was often something that no one could obtain in the end. It was the same for the Fire State. The other countries, including the Empire, did not obtain it. For this reason, they had also launched several wars but to no avail. On the contrary, the people suffered financial losses, so in the end, the matter was left unsettled, and became a region that did not care about anything else. It was also because they did not have jurisdiction, that they became a paradise for the fugitives.    

    

Although it was the paradise of the escapees, it was not chaotic in the Fire State. On the contrary, it was very orderly. However, the place that maintained order was not a government agency like the police department. There were no government agencies in that place, and there were only various violent forces.    

    

As for the specifics, Chen Qingchuan was not sure, because he had never been there before.    

    

When he told Chen Zhenghe what he knew, Chen Zhenghe nodded. "You already know the details, which makes it convenient for me to explain. Alright, I'll tell you about the two biggest powers in the Fire State. Sky Leaf Alliance and Floating Life Hall. "    

    

"After the war a hundred years ago, none of the three empires that wanted to occupy the Fire State gained any benefits. They formed a scouting team during the truce period to investigate the resources around Fire State. After a joint investigation, they found that there were no resources at all. Although it had a certain strategic significance, it could not withstand the joint attack of the other two countries. Thus, we each gave up."    

    

"However, they gave up. The criminals did not give up. That place became a paradise for them to avoid the law. Later on, as more and more people went there, coupled with the existence of the residents, Fire State gradually developed various powers. These powers were not limited to the local powers. There were also the powers that the major families were involved in. The Sky Leaf Alliance and the Floating Life Hall were the major families that were involved in this. With your intelligence, you should be able to tell from your name... "    

    

When Chen Zhenghe said this, Chen Qingchuan suddenly realized something. "The Sky Leaf Alliance belongs to the Ye Family. So, the Floating Life Hall, another major power that stands side by side with them... Since you mentioned it intentionally, it naturally belongs to the Chen Clan! "    

    

Chen Zhenghe nodded in agreement, "That's right. The Floating Life Hall is a secret force of the Chen Clan, although we didn't manage it on the surface. Yes. ___ nodded in agreement, That's right. The Chen Clan is a secret force of our Chen Clan. Although we didn't manage it on the surface, it has always been under our control."    

    

"With the existence of the Floating Life Hall, our Chen Clan's business will be able to run smoothly. Because this is our own power. However, something has happened in the Floating Life Hall recently. I don't know what exactly happened. This has caused the Sky Leaf Alliance to become the sole power, and their forces have also become stronger and stronger."    

    

"If the Floating Life Hall is destroyed in the end, then the power that protects our Chen Clan will cease to exist. It is precisely because of this that the Ye Family dares to attack us openly... "    

    

Chen Zhenghe was still talking about something, but Chen Qingchuan's thoughts had already flown to the Fire State.    

    

He understood that they wanted to kill one or two people of the Ye Family. It was very simple, but it was very difficult to eliminate the Ye Family. The real thing was that it was not easy for them to destroy the Ye Clan. The Ye Clan saw the hope to destroy them.    

    

Thus, they wanted to avenge their second uncle and free the Chen Clan from this crisis. The root of the problem was still the Floating Life Hall of the Fire State. Only by stabilizing the Floating Life Hall could the situation be reversed. Only then could they eliminate the Ye Family and avenge their second uncle!    

    

"Second Uncle, I want to go to the Fire State!"    

    

When Chen Qingchuan mentioned this, Chen Zhenghe looked at him and became silent.    

    

There was approval in his eyes, but there was also worry. Of course, recognition was recognition of his nephew's judgment and responsibility. The worry was even more obvious, because the situation in Fire State was too complicated. There were many dangers, and there was a risk of losing one's life at every turn. To let his nephew take the risk was something that an uncle would want to see. His original intention was to go there after the test, but it seemed like it would be difficult for him to even get out of bed.    

    

Finally, after three minutes of silence, Chen Zhenghe called Great-Grandfather. "About the Floating Life Hall, I mentioned it to Qingchuan."    

    

He could only leave this idea to Great-Grandfather.    

    

As for Great-Grandfather Fang, when he heard this, he also fell silent. Know your son better than your father. He knew very well what his son meant and what his son was worried about. But as a grandfather, how could he not worry about his grandson's safety?    

    

Under Great-Grandfather's instructions, the phone was passed to Chen Qingchuan. "Qingchuan, regarding this matter..."    

    

"Grandfather, don't say anything else. I have already made up my mind."    

    

As a descendant of the Chen Clan, he would hide when the family was in trouble. Was it appropriate for him to be the leader of the family when the family was prosperous? This was obviously not appropriate. When the family was in danger... Even if he had to risk his life, he had to win back the family's future!    

    

After Chen Qingchuan solemnly expressed his stance, Great-Grandfather Fang also fell silent.    

    

After a moment, his voice came from the phone. "If I were twenty years younger, no, even ten years younger, that would be good too!"    

    

It wasn't hard to tell from his sigh that Great-Grandfather Fang wanted to personally go to Fire State to solve the problem. This was enough to show how serious the problem was.    

    

If that was the case, then Chen Qingchuan would be even more responsible. He would definitely go to the Fire State, which was filled with all kinds of forces.    

    

Furthermore, he wanted to make the Floating Life Hall's name stand on top of the Fire State. There would no longer be any reputation of the Sky Leaf Alliance!
