Chapter 1621
However, he had nothing to say because the Zhou family was a first-rate hidden family, the same
level as the Lin family. They were much stronger than the Hsing family, which was a third- rate
hidden family.
Hearing this, Zeger nced at the members of the Hsing family and immediately said to Fade, "Mr.
Chen, you must be joking. In the arena, casualties are unavoidable. As a hidden family, the Lin
family has long understood this rule. We know how to deal with them."
"Of course, even if that was not the case, the Zhou family is not afraid of anyone in the hidden
family. As long as you are willing to be our guest, I can guarantee that no one can hurt you, Mr.
Chen."
Zeger''s words were forceful and firm, expressing his sincerity. Of course, from another perspective,
he had once again mercilessly pped the Hsing family right in the face.
Hearing this, Fade smiled slightly and immediately said, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Zhou.
However, I have promised to be a guest of the Zhu family. I should keep my word. Thus, I must
apologize."
Zeger seemed to have expected this. He smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, you are dignified and
admirable. It''s a great pity that we can''t work together this time. Of course, the door of the Zhou
family home will always be open to you."
"Thank you for your kindness, Zhou family!" Fade cupped one hand with the other before his chest
and thanked him.
"I''ll take my leave now." Zeger sped his hands in farewell.
Immediately after, Fade''s gaze swept across the members of the Hsing family. He also turned
around and left.
In an instant, the only ones left there were the dumbfounded members of the Hsing family. There
were also people around them who were whispering and pointing at them, covering their mouths.
After a while, the Hsing family came to their senses and turned around to leave with terrible
expressions on their faces.
After returning to the Zhu family, Keeran was very happy. He set up a table at home and invited
Fade to dinner.
At the table, Keeran was very excited. He poured ss after ss of wine into his mouth. Finally, he
swayed about, as he was a little drunk.
Seeing this, Fade could not help but stop him, who wanted to continue drinking and said, "Keeran,
don''t drink anymore. Tomorrow is the big day for the election of the new president. You have to be
prepared."
Keeran waved his hand and said with a self-deprecating smile, "Mr. Chen, you must be kidding. The
president''s election is for the several big families. Small families like mine will not seed. We are
just going to join in on the fun. Hence, it doesn''t matter whether I am drunk or not."
Harmon could not help but nod his head at this moment. He agreed. After all, the chairman''s
election could be said to be monopolized by a couple of first-rate families behind hidden doors. It
did not have much rtion to these lower-level hidden families.
Even if there was an ident, the chairman''s lowest standard would be a second-rate hidden
family. Even the Hsing family was not qualified to be a member of the council.
Since that was the case, Fade did not continue to persuade Keeran. He let him drink to his heart''s
content. In the end, he got really drunk.
The next day, the hidden family became lively again. Everyone gathered at the arena square.
Compared to the liveliness from the day before, the central square was decorated even more
majestically, disying a vast and grand atmosphere everywhere.
At ten o''clock in the morning, the grand event officially began. First, the host made a simple
introduction. Then, as everyone watched, an elder stepped onto the stage and started to talk loudly.
Listening to the old man''s words and Romeo''s introduction, Fade had a general understanding of
the situation.
Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.
The elder''s name was Napoleon Wang, and he was the reigning chairman of the Elders Council of
the hidden family. This time, he was going to step down and once again, the next chairman would
be selected.
Master Wang''s speech was brief, and it was soon over. The general content of his speech was
simple, such as what had he done before, and how now it was time for him to step down. He hoped
that a fairpetition would be held, and the hidden family would continue to move forward under
the leadership of the next chairman.
After a round of apuse, they saw Master Wang off the stage. Then, everyone''s eyes lit up, and
the atmosphere gradually became enthusiastic. That was because everyone knew that the real
highlight wasing.
Then, the host came to the stage and introduced the rules and regtions of the election in detail.
Finally, he announced that the election of the new chairman had officially started.
In actuality, the rules of the election were simple. Everyone from the noble families of the hidden
family had the right to sign up as a candidate. The restrictions were even more rxed than the
duels of the younger generation the day before.
Of course, it was fine to sign up, but whether or not they could be selected was another matter.
After all, everyone knew that it was valuable to be the head of the Elders Council with huge
backing and power.
Therefore, the people from the small families didn''t sign up. They all knew that this wasn''t for them.
It could even be said that this stage was for first-rate and a few second-rate hidden families.
As expected, the ones who stepped onto the stage were from the first rate hidden families, as well
as the Chiang family, a powerful second rate hidden family. Needless to say, they had the family
background, and everyone was well aware of it. The next matches would naturally depend on their
own martial arts abilities. To a certain degree, this election was also a continuation of the previous
day''s arena battle.
However, after the participants all came out, the host checked the list and looked at the crowd.
Finally, he confirmed, "Is there anyone else who wants to sign up? This is yourst chance. Last
chance. Any candidate who wants to sign up, pleasee forward!"
Off the stage, no one moved. After all, those who were keen had already gone on stage, and the
rest of the people who had not gone up knew that they had no chance, so they did not bother to
make a fool of themselves.
However, there was a special case that day.
That was Fade, who had won the championship in the battle arena the day before, and the Zhu
family whom he represented.
If it was the past, the people and families who won the championship in the ring the day before
would definitely participate in the election the next day.
Fade''s strength the day before was extraordinary. After defeating Fl iff, who was in the early stage
of the Heaven Level, it could be seen that his strength was probably at least at the early stage of
the Heaven Level. With such strength, he was not much weaker than some of the seniors on the
field.
Therefore, the Zhu family and Fade did not respond at all, which immediately aroused the
discussion of the crowd.
Of course, Keeran did not have the ability to participate in the selection, and Fade was not
interested. After all, this was not his objective foring to the hidden family.
Therefore, although the host and a lot of the audience''s eyes were on them, Fade still had no
intention of stepping onto the stage.
The host was about to announce the end of the registration with regret on his face.
Among the members of the Chiang family who had already signed up, Hambrick sneered and said
without hiding his sarcasm, "Wasn''t someone very arrogant yesterday? Why did he be a
coward today?"
Of course, Fade knew that Hambrick was talking about him. He couldn''t help but look at him with a
dark gaze.
