Chapter 1299

Mother stayed for a few days, not returning with Father and them; Second Uncle and Third Uncle went back with Father, possibly discussing the future of the Chen clan disciples, also discussing the clan's future; Tianwai, they will eventually have to go, even if not in the short term, what about the future?

Their way out has always been Tianwai, which is inevitable; as their strength grows, the Chen clan gradually becomes huge, reaching the limit, when they can no longer grow stronger, that is the limit of this world, the limit of resources, the limit in all aspects, so they need to go to Tianwai.

In fact, this world has already reached its limit; the Great Qi Dynasty, this colossus, controls most of the territory and most of the resources; then the Spirit Sword Sect and Yin Gui Sect, these sects; the Monster Race's controlled territory remains those, resources likewise; besides these, there are many clans, resources have already been divided up cleanly.

For the Chen clan to rise, it must rise by stepping on other clans' heads; in other words, that is to destroy other clans, replace them, seize their resources, thereby strengthening itself; for now it's still okay to say, we can destroy some clans, but what about later?

Unless the Chen clan aims to replace the Great Qi Dynasty and other sects, which is obviously unlikely.

Then, only the path to Tianwai can be taken; other sects are already thinking of expanding outward; this world is ultimately limited; if a road is forged in Tianwai, this world, they will instead not value it much.

This is why those sects rush one after another to Tianwai; after the Heavenly Heart Sect was destroyed, the resources and heritage it left behind are enough for them to digest for a period; once digested, only this road remains.

The Spirit Sword Sect, Yin Gui Sect, and the Monster Race side continually send people to Tianwai; even knowing they may fail, they still do so, because they have no choice, due to the existence of the Strong One, who occupies resources and positions, preventing those below from rising.

They must make way; the Chen clan hasn't yet faced this problem, with Chen Chuyang suppressing, resources are still sufficient, but what about the future?

The three of the Chen clan sat together, discussing the future.

Chen Chen said: "Tianwai definitely needs to be plotted; this is a long-term plan, also requiring long-term planning. What we need to be better than the Yin Gui Sect and Spirit Sword Sect is that we have Chuyang helping us; he has steadied his footing in Tianwai, so our clan members can receive his protection. As long as we get through this difficult early period, then our Chen Clan can steady our footing in Tianwai."

"Tianwai is immensely vast; just one Cangzhou is enough to be countless times larger than our world. Such a huge territory surely hides countless resources and also possesses magnificent heavenly-earth spiritual energy for cultivation, making it extremely suitable for our Chen Clan."

"If we can take root somewhere, our Chen Clan can rise swiftly; in terms of population, that's no problem—we can continuously send people from this world. Our clan's numbers have already multiplied several times over these years; according to the current trend, in the next few decades they will multiply several more times, and then they will inevitably create enormous pressure."

"Big brother, consider our clan's resource pressure; for now it's still acceptable, and that's thanks to Chuyang and Xiao Qian'er helping, providing pills. What about the future?"

"Third Uncle Chen Shen chimed in: 'Second Brother is right; our Chen Clan can still continue to rise, and as population grows, future will definitely bring enormous pressure; Tianwai is a must-go.'"

"Chuyang also said that only in the True Realm can one barely survive; we can strive to cultivate a batch of talents and then send them to Tianwai to develop."

"Cultivate one batch, send them off, then cultivate the next batch; if we can achieve something in Tianwai, we can bring back resources from Tianwai to supplement our Chen Clan, thus forming a complementary cycle."

"The Chen Clan sends talent, sends a continuous stream of people over; once they have steadied their footing, at that point not everyone needs to be in the True Realm."

"My plan is to gradually send people over; as Tianwai stabilizes, we can let most of the clan's members follow, the younger generation can all be sent, and anyone who wants to go will be sent to Tianwai to develop."

"If they die, they die; when there are too many people, dying some is also beneficial."

"Moreover, it's for the clan's expansion; the clan will take good care of their families and nurture their children."

"On this, Chen Shen had already thought it through."

"Not to mention others, his children are the same; if they have sufficient strength, they too will be sent to Tianwai without distinction."

"Chen Yuan heard this, nodded slightly: 'Not bad, I also planned this way; for the clan, going to Tianwai to wage war is inevitable; I fear not sacrifice but meaningless sacrifice. When the time comes, with Chuyang watching over us, whether our Chen Clan can truly rise will depend on this occasion.'"

"We must closely follow Chuyang's footsteps and step by step leave Tianwai."

"The urgent task is to let the Chen Clan members continue to reproduce, have more talented children, and cultivate them."

"In this regard, it should be handed over to Second Brother Chen Chen to handle."

"Second Uncle Chen Chen stood up and said: 'Big Brother, please rest assured; I am already handling this. As for now, after the younger generation reaches adulthood, aside from a very few, most have already married, and I will continue to urge them to have more children.'"

"Anyone of our Chen Clan bloodline will receive the corresponding resources."

"Effort, contribution, obtaining resources—the Chen Clan has already established this rule: to get more resources, one must contribute to the Chen Clan, and this applies to everyone."

"This is a relatively fair rule, and moreover, the emphasis on children surpasses that of all clans and sects."

"The next generation of the Chen Clan is truly outstanding; their approach is relatively gentle yet not lacking in strictness—whatever it should be, it is."

"Third Brother Chen Shen, regarding the cultivation of clan members, it's entrusted to you."

"Third Uncle Chen Shen stood up and replied: 'Big Brother, rest assured; I guarantee there will be no problem.'"

"Chen Yuan nodded slightly: 'Good, our opinions are in agreement; then let's inform Chuyang and have him make the arrangements.'"

"As for resources, we'll figure something out; in short, for the Chen Clan we must be ruthless."

"Understood."

"On the Chen Clan's side, the plan for Tianwai is being carried out quietly; preparations are made in advance, beginning to get ready for the next decade or so."

"Five days later."

"Longshe Shan."

"Mother Long Ming was about to prepare to go down the mountain when younger sister Chen Churan arrived."

"Accompanying the younger sister was also the new head of the Spirit Sword Sect, Ming Jianzi; the two returned secretly, without prior notice."

"Ming Jianzi came to Longshe Shan again, and was shocked by the changes here."

"Throughout, he kept his eyes on the surroundings, his demeanor cautious, observing everywhere."

"Chen Churan was the same; she kept her gaze everywhere, looking here and there, her eyes never stopping."

"After seeing Long Ming, the two hurriedly paid their respects; especially Chen Churan, who rushed over to hug her mother, while Ming Jianzi clasped his hands in a salute, being very polite."
