High Martial Arts: Invincible Starts from Basic Archery-Chapter 801 - 621: Taking Action (Part 2)
Beside them, Elder Yan and Elder Qin suddenly realized the gravity of the matter.
Because, since the Su Family has been secretly preparing to deal with the Awakened Association all these years.
Could it be that the Awakened Association has also been secretly nurturing individuals capable of rivaling the Elder Council?
From the current situation, it seems they’ve already succeeded.
And the two people nurtured by the Su Family have been sent into the Awakened Association, their fate uncertain.
"What you said is very likely."
Su Ming’s expression turned solemn.
"Perhaps the source of all these events is the Awakened Association laying out a trap."
"You all know that the Awakened Association has never gotten along with the Revival Association. In recent years, their relationship with us has worsened, so they arranged for a person named Chen Fan to kill a member of the Revival Association. In the end, the situation escalated, becoming uncontrollable."
As the words fell, the bodies of several people present trembled slightly.
The more you think about it, the more terrifying it becomes.
"What should we do now?"
Elder Yan asked somewhat flustered.
"What else can we do?"
Su Ming was so angry that he was grinding his teeth, "Once we fall behind, we fall behind in every step. If we don’t agree to their terms, they won’t let us off easily. Fortunately, we realized this not too late. The most important thing to do now is to quickly go back and report this matter to the patriarch in our family."
"Report to the patriarch?"
"Brother Su is right; the severity of this matter is beyond our imagination. The Awakened Association wants to uproot our Five Great Families."
"Damn it! If I had known, we shouldn’t have kept those two around till now," Elder Qin said angrily.
"Enough, this is not the time for this. Everyone hurry back, or else things will change."
The few of them quickly left.
...
Su Family’s Secret Realm.
"Grandpa, do you mean the Thunder Emperor and the others have been secretly plotting against us?"
A woman spoke.
The woman’s appearance was stunning in a heavenly way, yet her face was cold, giving an impression that she could only be admired from afar.
Besides her, several elders on the scene were looking at Su Ming.
Clearly, they were the patriarchs of the Su Family, with three in the Celestial Human Realm and one in the Divine Cultivation Realm.
"Yes."
Su Ming felt tremendous pressure at this moment.
Not to mention the patriarchs in front of him.
This granddaughter is also renowned as the Ice Emperor of the Yan Country.
Even though she calls him grandpa, it gives the illusion that he is actually the grandson.
"Just before this, the Thunder Emperor proposed..." He recounted the events, indeed, the patriarchs above couldn’t sit still when he mentioned the first condition.
"Where does this kid get such arrogance? Daring to target our Su Family?" A patriarch with cultivation in the Celestial Human Realm said angrily. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
"It’s simply audacious! Where is he? I’ll catch him right now!"
"Patriarch, calm down. Listen to me first."
Su Ming quickly said.
The speaking patriarch was in the Mid Stage of Celestial Realm.
From his perspective, a Celestial Realm Martial Artist is already quite powerful, not to mention he was in the Mid Stage.
But, when facing that kid, it’s still not enough.
To catch that kid, it requires the family’s patriarchs in the Divine Cultivation Realm.
So, he recounted the whole event from start to finish.
Indeed, the faces of several Celestial Realm patriarchs changed.
"Are you serious? Is he really that formidable?"
One of them said in disbelief.
They were aware of the strength of several patriarchs from the Song Family.
If it were them, even if they could win, it wouldn’t be easy, let alone finish the opponent without a scratch.
And the two Quasi-S-Class Awakened nurtured with great effort by their family were defeated by him?
This is astonishing!
"Report to the patriarch, these matters are absolutely true. If you don’t trust me, you can ask Xiaochan." Su Ming hurriedly said.
"Grandpa said it right."
Su Chan nodded, "I surmise that even if his strength does not match mine, it should not be too far off."
Upon these words, even the patriarch in the Divine Cultivation Realm’s face changed.
Because he knows well the strength of this family junior.
Even he would have considerable difficulty winning against Su Chan in a one-on-one situation, not to mention risking his life.
So for her to say that, the person called Chen Fan’s strength is certainly not simple.
"Patriarch, this matter is of utmost importance, so I rushed back to report. I fear the Awakened Association’s next move will be against our Five Great Families." Su Ming looked at the family’s patriarch in the Divine Cultivation Realm, anxious.
"Are they really that bold?" The patriarch in the Divine Cultivation Realm snorted coldly.
If the Awakened Association wants to deal with his Su Family, he sees a few possibilities.
But even if Chen’s kid pushes three S-Class Awakeners to the extreme, where’s the confidence to challenge our Five Great Families?
Because other four families also have a person in the Divine Cultivation Realm or comparable to it.
Including his Su Family, they have an Ice Emperor.
Three against six, how do you calculate?
"Second Uncle, I think Su Ming presents a reasonable argument, everything seems too coincidental; perhaps the Awakened Association is indeed plotting against us." A Martial Artist in the Late Stage of Celestial Human Realm spoke.
"Exactly, Second Uncle. Over the years, the Awakened Association increasingly disregards us, and since they’ve begun plotting against us, not taking action would be foolish. I think we should strike first, unite with the other four families, and eliminate them one by one."
"Indeed, once achieved, no one will threaten us, and Yan Country will remain under our control."
The patriarch in the Divine Cultivation Realm was moved by these words.
If just their Su Family acted, the risk would be significant.
For instance, dealing with the Thunder Emperor, if he risked everything, both he and Su Chan would undoubtedly be severely injured or even replaced.
But if they united with the other four families, with three to four patriarchs in Divine Cultivation Realm acting together, casualties could be minimized.
Though that leaves dealing with the Fierce Beasts outside.
"Xiaochan, what do you think?"
He looked toward Su Chan.
"I also think striking first is better."
Su Chan said calmly, "Since those two have been captured, it indicates they know about our plans. Their inaction might be to lower our guard, or perhaps unite us against the Fierce Beasts. After the Fierce Beasts are repelled, conflict will erupt between us and them. Under such circumstances, cutting the Gordian knot and dealing with all erratic factors before the Beast Tide arrives at Baijiang City is better."
"Hmm."
The patriarch in the Divine Cultivation Realm nodded upon hearing this.
Su Chan’s words indeed made sense.
"Since that is the case, then Second and Third Brother, could you please visit the patriarchs of the other families and convey our intention? If they’re willing, we’ll sit down to discuss. Remember, don’t leak any information."
"Understood."
The Martial Artists in the Celestial Human Realm quickly responded.
"You too."
"Yes, Patriarch."
Su Ming and Su Chan also answered hurriedly.
The matter is too significant for them to be ignorant.
"Xiaochan, if the other families have no objection, it’ll be up to you to invite those two over."
The patriarch in the Divine Cultivation Realm instructed.
If they directly invade, firstly it’s on someone’s land, secondly, it creates a large commotion and spreads badly.
But if Su Chan invites them here, it’s different.
"Don’t worry, Patriarch. Chan’Er will definitely accomplish it."
Su Chan’s eyes flashed with enthusiasm.
If this succeeds, the Awakened Association will naturally fall under her command.
As for Yan Country, it can be taken slowly, erasing the other families one by one.
