"If that's the case, do you think there's any point in us going to the Chen family?" Si Tuxiong said with satisfaction.
He didn't believe that Chen Hongyuan could gain anything in the Dead Zone.
"We don't know what the other families are thinking right now. If the other families' patriarchs go, and you don't go, maybe the other families will have their own ideas!" The second elder said.
"En, that's true! The date of this letter is the first of next month. Now there are only 11 days left, just enough time for the Chen family. It seems impossible to contact the other families now! "Si Tuxiong shook his head and said.
If it was just the Chen family, he naturally wouldn't put it in his eyes.
But he was worried that if he didn't go, the other families would have a bad opinion of the Situ family. If it wasn't handled properly, those aristocratic families might form an alliance and exclude the Situ Family. That would be troublesome.
"So I think you should go personally. If they are really discussing something important and you don't go, I may not be able to make the decision." The great elder said.
"Yes, patriarch, and the Chen family hasn't replied to us yet. Didn't you go to the Chen family to discuss this matter at that time?
Although the Chen family isn't afraid, it's also a good thing if you can rope them in. Now the Chen family's position in the nine families has improved a lot, especially after the Dead Zone trip. Maybe it's not only us who want to rope in the Chen family.
I also think it's more appropriate for the patriarch to go personally! "The second elder also agreed.
"If that's the case, this trip to the Chen family is still imperative!" Si Tuxiong frowned and said.
"Patriarch, the family's interests are the most important. Although nothing big will happen to the Chen family, I think it's better to go. Anyway, we won't lose anything. Consider it as giving face to the Chen family! "The great elder said.
"Alright! Since you all think I should go, then I'll give face to the Chen family! "Si Tuxiong nodded and said.

On the other side, the Ji family's situation was similar to the Situ family.
Although they were already one of the top families in the nine families, the most important thing for them was to maintain a balance among the families.
Knowing that the Chen Family had invited all the Patriarchs of the aristocratic families, they had to go and take a look regardless of whether something big had happened to the Chen Family.
To prevent the other aristocratic families from joining forces to break the current balance and threaten their current position among the Nine Great Aristocratic Families.
However, among the Nine Great Clans, the Nangong Clan was definitely the most humiliated.
In the Grand Competition of the Nine Families, the Nangong Family was in the limelight. Even the Ji Family and the Situ Family were defeated by the Nangong Family.
In fact, all the aristocratic families thought that the Nangong Family could possibly replace the Ji Family and the Situ Family and ascend the throne of the number one aristocratic family.
Therefore, a few families had expressed their goodwill towards the Nangong family, hoping that they would be taken care of by the Nangong family in the Death Realm.
Even they themselves felt that after this trip to the Death Zone, the Nangong Family would be in the limelight and completely suppress the Ji Family and the Situ Family, making the Nangong Family the number one family among the Nine Great Families.
However, after waiting patiently for three months, no one had expected that the NanGong Family would be completely annihilated. Not a single person had returned.
Everyone had great confidence in them, but in the end, not a single person had returned. How could he accept such an outcome?
What was more infuriating was that he wanted to suppress the Ji Family and the Situ Family, but in the end, the Situ Family and the Ji Family had all returned alive. Although not many of them had returned alive, they wouldn't be as shameful as the Nangong Family.
Of course, this was not the most infuriating thing. The most infuriating thing was that the people from the Chen Family and the Dongfang Family had returned alive.
One should know that only one of them had entered the Death Zone, and the two of them had left together in the end.
In other words, the Chen Family and the Dongfang Family had only two people who had returned alive from the Death Zone, while the Nangong Family had at least eighteen people. If the people from the other two families had returned, they would have twenty people.
However, in the end, the twenty of them could not even compare to the two of them.
Therefore, when Chen Hongyuan and Dongfang Fei Bai had come out from the Death Zone, it was simply a humiliation to the Nangong Family.
In fact, he had sent people to wait at the exit for more than ten days.
Unfortunately, in the end, no one had returned alive. This had caused the Nangong Family to lose face in front of the other families.
Perhaps every family had heard of this embarrassing rumor about the Nangong Family.
Now, the Chen Family had suddenly sent an invitation to the eight big families. However, the content of the invitation was too simple. They did not understand what it meant by something big had happened to the Chen Family.
With just a few words, they wanted the Family Head of a family to go over. This was simply not putting the Nangong Family in their eyes!
"Family Head, the Chen Family has gone too far. Do they think that they can just casually send an invitation just because they had someone who had returned alive from the Death Zone? Furthermore, they want the Family Head to go personally. They are obviously looking down on the Nangong Family. " The Sixth Elder of the Nangong Family said angrily after knowing the content of the Chen Family's invitation.
Because of the incident in the Death Zone, the Nangong Family was now in a state of panic. They felt that everything the other families did was a humiliation to the Nangong Family.
After all, they originally wanted the Nangong Family to have a higher status among the nine big families. They did not expect that the result would be so embarrassing.
Therefore, they now felt that the other families were treating the Nangong Family as a joke.
Moreover, the Chen Family had sent the invitation too casually. Since something important had happened, they changed it to an urgent invitation. That way, they would know that something big had happened.
However, even though they said that something big had happened, it was only an ordinary invitation. Moreover, the content was extremely simple. Everyone was confused when they saw it.
It was obvious that they were looking down on the Nangong Family. It was as if they were saying, do it or not.
This made the Nangong Family, who wanted to become the number one family, very unhappy.
"Family Head, I don't think we need to care about them! So what if someone from the Chen Family came back alive from the Death Zone? Now, the other families also think that the two brats from the Chen Family and the Dongfang Family had been hiding in there for three months without any results.
If something big had happened, they would have sent an urgent invitation. Why would they send an ordinary invitation so casually? "The Third Elder said.
