Since it had been decided to let Su Xin become the Chu family's right-hand man, the Chu family would not be too stingy. They immediately ordered people to hold a banquet to welcome Su Xin.
However, during the banquet, Su Xin discovered a very interesting situation. Currently, the Chu family was obviously divided into two factions. One was the radical faction led by Chu Jingtian. This faction was hostile to the Zhou and Wang families. They wanted to use violence to conquer them completely and restore the glory of the Chu family in the past.
The other faction was led by Chu Lintian. In their opinion, after so many years, the Zhou and Wang families had become completely independent and were no longer a branch of the Chu family. At this time, it was easier said than done to conquer them completely.
The competition in the internal sea was fierce and extremely dangerous. The geographical location of the Broken Dragon Islands was the most suitable for an alliance. If the three families united, their strength would increase greatly. At that time, they would be a powerful force in the internal sea. They would not be like they were now, which was at the bottom of the entire internal sea.
In fact, in Su Xin's opinion, he agreed with Chu Lintian's opinion.
As a person, it was best to recognize reality. Right now, the other two clans had already established themselves. To put it bluntly, if the other two clans joined forces, they could even destroy the Chu clan. At this time, if the Chu clan still harbored the thought of restoring their former glory, even though they still had the motivation, they would still lose miserably.
However, since Su Xin wanted to seize the Divine Martial Order, it would be difficult to make a move if the three families were harmonious. It would be best if the three families fought each other to the death. This would be in line with Su Xin's interests.
Now, Su Xin openly sat next to Chu Jingtian, indicating his position. This made the faces of Chu Lintian's faction gloomy.
Chu Jingtian snorted and said to Su Xin, "Senior Meng, you should know about the Chu family's affairs. The Chu family hasn't been avenged yet. Now, someone in the Chu family wants to take the initiative to unite the other two families. It's a disgrace to the Chu family!
Senior, if you were in this situation, what would you do? "
Chu Jingtian's words were also a test. Although he now knew that this Senior Meng had a good impression of him, he still had to understand the other party's real attitude.
After all, the other party was the Hall Master of the Chu family's Consecration Hall. He also had the right to participate in the Chu family's affairs.
Su Xin snorted and said, "Is there a need to say it? We warriors have been practicing martial arts all our lives. We may not be able to be chivalrous and care for the world, but if we can't even do that when we see injustice, what's the point of living?
I, Meng Jiuchen, am a rogue cultivator, but I also know the principle of revenge. If the enemy is too strong, I have to give up revenge. What's the point of living in such a sullen way?
Of course, this is the old man's character. Your Chu family is a big family with a big business, so it's understandable that you have to consider more. "
After hearing Su Xin's words, Chu Jingtian was very excited at this time, because this Senior Meng was exactly the same as he had imagined!
Chu Jingtian said with hatred, "When the Zhou and Wang families rebelled, many people of the Chu family died in their hands.
And at that time, among the three Broken Dragon Islands, the Dragon Body Island and the Dragon Tail Island were the places where the Chu family was responsible for storing resources, but they were also occupied by them.
If that incident hadn't happened, the Chu family wouldn't be ranked at the top of the internal sea, but we wouldn't be ranked at the bottom like we are now. "
After figuring out Su Xin's attitude, Chu Jingtian was immediately relieved.
With such a warrior in the Yang Spirit Realm on his side, his power in the Chu family had surpassed that of his elder brother for the first time.
Just as the banquet was about to end, Chu Lintian suddenly stood up and said, "Father, the Old Ancestor's birthday is coming. We have invited all the people who should be invited, but should we invite the people of the Zhou and Wang families?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present immediately quieted down, and Chu Zhouxing's eyes also revealed a look of struggle.
If it had been in the past, they naturally wouldn't have struggled with this kind of thing. Since when did the Chu family's Old Ancestor need to invite the people of the Zhou and Wang families?
But now, because some people in the Chu family had agreed to join forces with the Zhou and Wang families, the birthday of the Chu family's Old Ancestor was also a good starting point. If they could invite both sides and sit together to ease the conflict, the chances of the alliance would be higher.
Chu Lintian had always wanted to promote this, so as soon as he spoke, the other members of the Chu family who were on his side also nodded in agreement.
However, at this time, Chu Jingtian frowned. He directly stood up and said, "Absolutely not! The Old Ancestor's birthday is a big event of the Chu family. Why should the Zhou and Wang families participate? Have you all forgotten the hatred of the past? "
Chu Lintian said coldly, "It's precisely because the Chu family wants to ease the hatred of the past that we want to invite these two families. Second Brother, you are too extreme. Sooner or later, the whole Chu family will be ruined!"
Chu Jingtian sneered and said, "Ruin the Chu family? I don't know who will be the one to ruin the Chu family in the end! "
The two heirs of the Chu family began to quarrel, and the other disciples of the Chu family also began to quarrel. The whole Chu family was suddenly in a mess. At this time, the Old Ancestor of the Chu family shouted sternly, "Shut up!"
The Old Ancestor of the Chu family had a strong prestige in the Chu family. As soon as he spoke, the disciples of the Chu family didn't dare to quarrel anymore.
The Old Ancestor of the Chu family rubbed his head. He also couldn't make up his mind, so the Old Ancestor of the Chu family looked at Su Xin and asked, "Mr. Meng, what do you think of this matter?"
The Old Ancestor of the Chu family asked for Su Xin's opinion not only because he wanted to hear his opinion as an outsider, but also because he wanted to know the attitude of Meng Jiuchen in front of him.
The Old Ancestor of the Chu family knew that Meng Jiuchen was on the side of Chu Jingtian, and he was also optimistic about Chu Jingtian. However, the Old Ancestor of the Chu family still wanted to know whether Meng Jiuchen would fulfill his duty as the Ancestor of the Chu family.
Su Xin's expression didn't change. He stood up and said lightly, "In my opinion, this matter is very simple. If the Zhou family and the Wang family want to attend the birthday banquet of the Chu family, it's actually possible."
As soon as these words came out, Chu Jingtian's expression changed. Just now, this Senior Meng said that he would be on his side. Why did he change his mind now?
Moreover, Chu Lintian and the others didn't expect that Meng Jiuchen would speak for them.
However, at this time, Su Xin changed the topic and said, "However, it's possible for the Zhou family and the Wang family to attend the birthday banquet, but we can't take the initiative to invite them.
Everything has to be prioritized. Even if the Chu family wants to ally with the two families, we can't rush to please them, and we can't be at a disadvantage in terms of momentum.
Therefore, if the Zhou family and the Wang family want to attend the birthday banquet, then let them prepare the gifts and come by themselves. The Chu family definitely can't rush to invite them. "
The eyes of the Old Ancestor of the Chu family lit up. What Meng Jiuchen said was exactly what he wanted.
He knew the current situation of the Chu family, so the Chu family's Old Ancestor didn't object to easing the relationship with the Wang family and the Zhou family.
However, the Chu family used to be the masters of the Broken Dragon Islands. They were the main family. He was somewhat unwilling to admit that they were on equal footing with the Zhou family and the Wang family.
Now, Meng Jiuchen's words were exactly what he wanted. He could accept the Zhou family and the Wang family to ease the relationship, but the two families had to show their sincerity first to protect the face of the Chu family.
The Old Ancestor of the Chu family nodded with satisfaction and said, "Mr. Meng is right. Then we will do as Mr. Meng said."
Although Chu Lintian was slightly dissatisfied, since the Old Ancestor of the Chu family had spoken, he could only do this for the time being.
An unfathomable smile appeared on Su Xin's face. Would the Zhou family and the Wang family come? In Su Xin's opinion, there was an 80% chance that they wouldn't.
Some people in the Chu family didn't want to ally with the Zhou family and the Wang family. Similarly, some people in the Zhou family and the Wang family didn't want to ally with the Chu family.
It should be known that the strength of the Zhou family and the Wang family was stronger than that of the Chu family. Some radical people in their families thought even more extreme. In their opinion, the Chu family was just a poor family. Obviously, they were not as strong as them. How could they be arrogant here?
Although the people with this kind of thinking were not mainstream, when the news of the Chu family's side spread out, this kind of thinking would definitely gain the upper hand. At that time, would they be willing to take the initiative to give in to the Chu family? Obviously, it was impossible.
In fact, as Su Xin thought, Chu Lintian had a relationship with both the Zhou family and the Wang family. Therefore, when the news came from his side, the Zhou family and the Wang family sneered.
If the Chu family had given them an invitation to give them a way out, they wouldn't have minded easing the relationship with the Chu family.
But the result was that the Chu family couldn't see the situation clearly. They even waited for them to take the initiative to apologize. They simply didn't know what was good for them!
After nightfall, Su Xin's figure hid in the darkness. At this time, even if he didn't use the power of the True Martial Realm, the entire Chu family wouldn't be able to find him.
In a dense forest on Dragon Head Island, Bai Wumo's figure appeared. Seeing Su Xin appear, Bai Wumo couldn't help but sigh, "Lord Su is really worthy of being Lord Su. It only took you a few days to become the Hall Master of the Chu family's Consecration Hall. I have to say, Lord Su, your ability is comparable to the White Lotus Sect.
However, the White Lotus Sect's spies and undercover agents in the major sects rely on illusions, while Lord Su relies on the hearts of the people. "
Bai Wumo's words weren't compliments to Su Xin. What he said was the truth.
The White Lotus Sect generally relied on bewitching the low-level disciples of those sects to enter the internal affairs of the other sects. But now, what did Su Xin use? It was the hearts of the people. Using the internal contradictions of the Chu family and the contradictions of the three families of the Broken Dragon Island, he forcibly used the identity of an outsider to enter the Chu family at the right time to become the Hall Master of the Consecration Hall with the right to discuss matters. This method was really amazing.
Now, the most proficient person in using this method in Jianghu was the Wind-chasing Enforcer of the Six Fan School. This Lord Su was worthy of being a Wind-chasing Enforcer. If he was still in the imperial court, the chief of detectives of the Six Fan School after Tie Ao would definitely be this person in front of him instead of Tie Zhan.
