I'm also very curious about this. I don't know where they got so many immortal pills. However, Chen Hongyuan had entered the Death Domain before. It's not impossible for him to have obtained an immortal pill there. As for Chen Hongxing, he should have gotten it from somewhere else. Situ Xiong was also very puzzled.
Even he, the Situ Family's Patriarch, wasn't so extravagant. Although this duel might be very important to the Chen brothers.
But it was definitely not important to the point of using immortal pills casually.
Immortal pills couldn't be used casually, but if they were to be used, it was definitely a situation where they had no choice but to use them.
However, the Chen family had lost two immortal pills in this duel. Speaking of which, this duel was really a waste.
It's because of this news that father thinks that Cheng Yu is controlling the Chen family? Situ Yongkang said.
That's right. It's not impossible. Previously, I only thought that Cheng Yu only had some talent. The Chen family only took a fancy to his talent and wanted to rope him in. That's why they married Chen Xinran to his senior brother.
But now, it seems that his status in the Chen family wasn't low. On the contrary, it was even higher than he imagined.
Thinking about it, at that time, Chen Tianxing was still the Chen family's Patriarch, but he knelt down to Cheng Yu. If the Chen family took a fancy to Cheng Yu's talent, then this was somewhat unreasonable.
Furthermore, according to Jiang Wuya, when Chen Tianxing asked Cheng Yu for help, Cheng Yu even taught the Chen family's Fifth Master a lesson.
If this is true, from these signs, this Cheng Yu is indeed a great threat to the Chen family. Situ Xiong said.
But even so, to say that he controlled the Chen family, this doesn't seem to be possible. No matter how strong this Cheng Yu is, doesn't the Chen family still have so many ancestors?
Those ancestors are all in the tribulation stage. Could it be that they are afraid of Cheng Yu? Father, I think you are thinking too much. The Chen family is so big. Even if it has declined now, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse.
No matter how much the Chen family has declined, it is definitely not something that a single person can control! Situ Yongkang also frowned and thought for a while. However, he still felt that the chances of the Chen family being controlled was not high.
If Cheng Yu is alone, then it is naturally impossible for him to control the Chen family. But what if he isn't alone? Situ Xiong said.
"Not alone? Didn't you say Cheng Yu is Limitless Palace disciple? Even if all of this is instigated by Limitless Palace, Limitless Palace doesn't have the ability to do so. They are much weaker than Chen family! "
"That's right. The Limitless Palace is nothing to be afraid of. However, I am worried about the Dynasty!"
"Dynasty? Are you talking about the dynasty that controls more than half of the cultivation world? "Situ Yongkang was startled and said.
"That's right. I've thought about it for a long time. There are only so many forces in the cultivation world that can control the Chen Family. Apart from the dynasties, there were also some extremely powerful secluded sects and families. However, these forces have been in seclusion for a much longer time than the nine great clans, so they probably won't easily interfere in the affairs of the nine great clans.
However, that was not necessarily the case for the Dynasty. Although not many people knew about it, the Dynasty had never said that it was hidden from the world. It could even be said that the Dynasty was omnipresent.
If they were to target the Nine Great Families, do you think our Situ Family would be spared? "Situ Xiong said worriedly.
"But why would the Dynasty suddenly attack the Nine Great Clans? We don't have any interaction with them. "Situ Yongkang said doubtfully.
He didn't know much about the Dynasty. He had never seen the people of the Dynasty. However, he knew how powerful the Dynasty was.
However, the Nine Great Families had always been at peace with the Dynasty. Why would they suddenly attack the Nine Great Families? This was very puzzling!
"Perhaps the Dynasty's ambition has become bigger. Perhaps they are no longer satisfied with the current situation. Or perhaps they want to control the entire cultivation world?" Situ Xiong shook his head and said.
This was also the question that he had been thinking about. After all, there were only so many forces in this world that could threaten the Nine Great Families.
Other than the Dynasty that was still in power, he really couldn't think of any other force that would have the strength and leisure to do this kind of thing.
"Father, even if that's the case, all of this is just your guess. It can't be counted. Perhaps, you are worrying too much!" Situ Yongkang said.
After knowing so much important news, he also felt that this matter was not simple. However, he wasn't as pessimistic as Situ Xiong. After all, they didn't have any conflicts with the Dynasty. There was no reason for the Dynasty to suddenly attack the Nine Great Families.
"I hope that all of this is not what I think. Then, it really has nothing to do with our Situ Family!" Situ Xiong said.
He wouldn't care about the life and death of the Chen Family. He was just worried that if the Chen Family was controlled, then the Situ Family would be next.
Even if it wasn't the Situ Family, after the Dynasty controlled the other families, they would definitely target the Situ Family.
Dong dong dong!
"Family Head, the Ji Family has sent someone over to see you!" At this moment, a guard knocked on the door and said.
"Why is the Ji Family looking for me?" Situ Xiong asked.
"He didn't say. He only said that he must tell you personally!" The guard's voice came in.
"Let him in!" Situ Xiong thought for a moment and said.
"Yes!"
"Father, do you think that the Ji Family is looking for you at this time for this matter?" Situ Yongkang asked doubtfully.
It was so late and the Ji Family actually sent someone here. This was indeed a little suspicious.
"That's possible. Let's listen to what they have to say first!" Situ Xiong nodded.
"Family Head, he is here!" Not long after, the guard's voice came from outside again.
"Come in!"
Creak! The door opened and a man wearing the Ji Family's clothing came in.
"Why did the Ji Family send you here?" Situ Xiong looked at him and asked.
"Greetings, Situ Family Head. I am here under the orders of the Family Head to invite you to the Lingyun Little Building. Our Family Head has something to discuss with you!" The Ji Family Head said.
"It's so late. What can't be said tomorrow? Also, am I alone? "Situ Xiong asked doubtfully. The Lingyun Little Building was the residence that the Chen Family had arranged for the Ji Family.
"Our Family Head said that it's urgent. He asked Situ Family Head to make a trip. Also, other than the Chen Family Head, the other six families' Family Heads are all here!"
"Oh? So I'm the only one missing? "Situ Xiong asked doubtfully.
The seven families were all gathered together. It seemed that it was most likely for this matter. Obviously, they also realized that this matter wasn't simple. Otherwise, they definitely wouldn't have gathered everyone together.
"Yes!" The Ji Family Head nodded.
"Father, be careful, it might be a trap!" Situ Yongkang was a little worried and whispered in Situ Xiong's ear.
"En, I understand!" Situ Xiong nodded. However, he really had to make a trip today. Thus, he said to the Ji Family Head, "Lead the way!"
