"You two, what business do you have with the Divine Child?" Chen Chuyu's tone was cold and elegant, a stark contrast to her previous rudeness.

In a crowded place, she naturally couldn't be willful and had to pay attention to her image.

After all, being the Divine Child represented a whole family.

"Heh, trying to act like a decent person when there are so many people around." Su Jue muttered quietly, only Chen Chuyu could hear.

Being bumped into by Su Jue like this, Chen Chuyu took a sharp breath.

"Control yourself, control yourself."

Chen Chuyu silently told herself in her heart, trying to manage her expression and not lose control, then continued to ask, "What business do you two have with the Divine Child?"

"Sorry, we don't have..."

Chen Xinyan saw that Chen Chuyu didn't attack, so she quickly tried to salvage the situation.

But before she could finish her sentence, Su Jue immediately covered her mouth.

"Haha, the Divine Child truly lives up to her name, knowing things before they happen." Su Jue gave Chen Chuyu a thumbs up.

"Speak quickly, the Divine Child's time is precious!" Chen Chuyu clenched her fist.

Last time, when Su Jue messed with Azi's tail, she hadn't confronted Su Jue yet, but she didn't expect Su Jue to take the initiative this time.

It was quite a coincidence that Chen Chuyu appeared in a place with so many Chen Family members. It was because of the family trial this time, and as the hosting family, Chen Chuyu had to take charge.

And Chen Chuyu also enjoyed the feeling of being looked up to.

If it were someone else, Chen Chuyu indeed wouldn't have stopped.

But seeing that it was Su Jue and Chen Xinyan, she couldn't help but walk over.

"Haha, there's actually nothing important."

"We just want to participate in the family trial."

"You are the Divine Child, so your words carry weight." Su Jue said casually.

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole scene erupted.

"This person dares to speak to the Divine Child like this, is he crazy or does he not value his life?"

Su Jue's words silenced the entire crowd.

Chen Xinyan felt like she had been hit by a ten thousand point attack in her heart.

"This guy isn't useless, he's just shameless!"

Chen Xinyan wished she could find a hole to hide in.

Chen Chuyu was also dumbfounded by Su Jue's words, standing still in place for a few seconds.

"Huh?"

"I said, we want to participate in the family trial." Su Jue remained calm, as if what he said was only natural.

Chen Chuyu twitched her eye slightly, ignoring Su Jue and turning to look at Chen Xinyan.

"Sister, it seems like your husband hasn't woken up yet, why did he come out?" Chen Chuyu said softly, her tone calm with a hint of sarcasm.

Chen Xinyan's face turned red, not knowing what to say anymore.

She couldn't predict what Su Jue would do next.

Chen Chuyu also couldn't imagine that Su Jue called her over to play such a trick.

She also knew that she couldn't continue to entangle with this person who spoke nonsense, so she turned around and left directly.

"Ah, what a pity."

"I heard that the family trial is quite brutal..." Su Jue suddenly said something strange, leaving everyone puzzled.

When these words reached Chen Chuyu's ears, she suddenly stopped in her tracks, as if she had thought of something, and turned to ask the old man beside her.

"Elder San, can we add two more spots for the family trial this time?"

The white-haired old man next to her was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Su Jue and Chen Xinyan, and then seriously said, "Divine Child, if you want to add spots, it can naturally be done, but..."

"Then add two spots."

"If they want to participate, let them participate." Chen Chuyu glanced at them and left without saying another word.

In an instant, a barely noticeable curve appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"This..."

Chen Chuyu's words once again silenced the whole scene.

"They really let them participate?"

"This is too surreal, isn't it?" Chen Chuan's jaw dropped.

"Could it be that he really is a genius?"

"Haha, you're quite a good person." Su Jue said very politely, but Chen Chuyu didn't pay any attention to him and left quickly.

"Still the Divine Child, truly magnanimous!"

After a long silence, someone in the crowd said, and then everyone started cheering.

"The Divine Child is generous!"

"Divine Child, impressive!"

The loud voice drowned out Su Jue and Chen Xinyan.

Su Jue turned around, a proud look on her face. "How am I?"

Chen Xinyan rubbed her eyes and shook her head. "I must not be fully awake..."

"Hehe, I told you, I have a plan." Su Jue smiled faintly and whispered to Chen Xinyan.

"Chen Chuyu wants us to participate in the family trial as a way to seek revenge."

"She doesn't have good intentions. We must be careful about our safety once we enter."

Su Jue deliberately mentioned it earlier to make Chen Chuyu think that she could seek revenge during the family trial.

Su Jue explained the cause and effect, then smiled lightly.

"I can only say that this little girl has me tightly in her grasp."

Looking at Chen Xinyan, whose eyes were filled with wisdom, it seemed like her brain had shut down.

"I don't understand, but I'm greatly impressed."

Chen Xinyan couldn't believe that there was a way to turn the situation around like this.

While shocked, Chen Xinyan had to admit that Su Jue was quite daring.

Even if she could think of it, she wouldn't take such a risk herself.

However, no matter what, the end result would be the same.

Chen Xinyan finally had the opportunity to participate in the family trial, although the process was somewhat... abstract.

On the other side, Chen Chuyu didn't expect to provoke such a reaction.

However, she enjoyed this feeling.

With an arrogant smile, Chen Chuyu walked step by step towards the high platform, admired by everyone.

At this moment, the head of the Chen Family also appeared.

"Everyone, please be quiet."

The voice of the head of the Chen Family was loud and imposing, befitting the head of a family.

"Elders and disciples from various families have come from afar. I, Chen, welcome you all."

On the high platform, in addition to the Chen Family members, there were also several elders from subordinate families, all seated here to listen to the head of the Chen Family's speech.

Taking advantage of the gap, Chen Chuyu quietly left the high platform and found a middle-aged man with a slightly hunched figure.

"Guardian Chen Jing, may I have a word with you?" Chen Chuyu whispered.

"Please speak."

Chen Jing slightly lowered his head and respectfully replied.

"In the upcoming family trial, I would like to ask for Guardian Chen Jing's help..."

"I would be honored."

...

"Divine Child, rest assured, leave this matter to me." Chen Jing nodded.

In the Chen Family, Chen Chuyu was the Divine Child. As long as she spoke, no one dared to disobey.

"Then I thank Guardian Chen Jing." Chen Chuyu smiled.

"Hehe, a little Su Jue is not worth me personally taking action."

"As for my foolish sister, with her pitiful strength, the intensity of the family trial will be enough to overwhelm her!"

...

Not long after, the third elder who had accompanied Chen Chuyu earlier went up on stage and explained the rules of the family trial.

Su Jue had briefly introduced these rules to Chen Xinyan before, but Su Jue hadn't paid much attention and had been staring at Chen Xinyan the whole time.

Chen Xinyan, on the other hand, listened carefully, her expression serious.

Entering the family trial was the first step in Chen Xinyan's plan. Although it was crucial, it wasn't the most difficult step.

The real hardships would come later, during the family trial. The Spirit Medicine she needed wouldn't be easy to find, not to mention the conflicts between disciples during the trial.

Her only advantage was her experience and knowledge.

"I hope everything goes smoothly." Chen Xinyan took a deep breath and turned her head, only to see Su Jue staring at her intently.

"What are you doing?" Chen Xinyan furrowed her brows again.

If it were any other girl, she might feel shy at this moment. After all, being stared at like this would be somewhat embarrassing.

But she was Chen Xinyan, the reincarnation of the Empress of the Bai Su Sacred Land.

"Are you worried that something might happen when we go in later?"

"Don't worry, come find me later. Your husband will protect you." Su Jue said softly, his tone filled with doting.

"You? Hmph."

"But you've been provoking Chen Chuyu all this time."

"When we go in later, stay away from me. That's the best way to protect me." Chen Xinyan showed no gratitude whatsoever.
