Tomb raiding: Intercepting Yin Xinyue and building a family of immortals
Chapter 137 Three Golden Fortresses
"Master, the Jiang family has arrived!"
Just then, a villager rushed to Yi Xiao's side and said to him.
The Jiang family arrived late!
Seeing this, Ding Sansi temporarily abandoned his idea of open robbery.
He was unwilling to see both sides suffer losses, with the Jiang family ultimately gaining the advantage while he himself suffered a loss.
This time, the Jiang family was led by the head of the family, Jiang Yunpo. She and Ding Sansi were of the same generation and were only a few years apart in age.
"That old bastard, of all times, he had to come!"
Ding Sansi complained.
If the Jiang family hadn't arrived, he probably would have already succeeded.
"The Jiang family should make its own decisions. Why is your Ding family meddling in our Jiang family's affairs?"
Jiang Yunpo, with her full head of silver hair and hunched back, was somewhat dissatisfied with Ding Sansi's words and retorted.
Her move was also a way of sending a message that she was in charge of the Jiang family.
No one can interfere with the Jiang family, not even if they possess the Four Seas Ancestral Token.
This statement was directed at the Yi family and Su Chen.
"Old woman, you don't need to be so harsh with yourself."
Aunt Ding said, "Now that everyone is here, let's all go to the ancestral hall and chat."
Third Aunt led everyone to the Yi family's ancestral hall.
Regardless, the opening of the Ancestral Golden Soup will require the combined efforts of all three families to complete.
The Ding and Jiang families probably both want to be the ones in charge of opening the Golden Fortress this time.
As a result, the Yi family's interests were harmed.
Therefore, the Yi family brought in Su Chen this time, hoping to rely on Su Chen to take the lead in opening the Golden Soup.
Upon arriving at the ancestral hall, the grand master's chair at the very top was empty.
The Ding family and the Jiang family sat on either side.
"This empty space is reserved for our Jiang family, right?"
Jiang Yunpo glanced at the armchair directly in front of her.
Only by firmly securing this grand master's chair can one become the leader of the three families.
"Hehe, this seat belongs to Mr. Su."
Since Ding Sansi couldn't sit there, he naturally wouldn't let anyone from the Jiang family sit there and put them in a superior position.
"Mr. Su? That Mr. Su?" Jiang Yunpo asked curiously.
“It’s Mr. Su Chen. He obtained the Four Seas Ancestral Token before,” Yi Xiao explained.
"I thought it was someone important! Turns out it's just a greenhorn." Granny Jiang Yun sneered twice. "He's not even fully grown yet, and he wants to lead our three families? What a pipe dream!"
Jiang Yunpo was dissatisfied with this matter, and her attitude represented the entire Jiang family.
The dozens of young talents of the Jiang family standing behind Jiang Yunpo also showed their anger.
"Hehe, old woman, don't underestimate Mr. Su."
Third Aunt spoke up, "Just now, the Ding family and Mr. Su competed, and whether on the road or in the water, they were both defeated by Mr. Su's men."
"what?"
Jiang Yunpo was getting a little unsettled.
Unexpectedly, even that old codger Ding Sansi was defeated by Su Chen.
It seems she miscalculated.
The Jiang family's strength is roughly the same as the Ding family's.
If the other side could defeat the Ding family, it proves that the Jiang family is definitely no match for them either.
The owner of the Four Seas Ancestral Token is actually this powerful?
Jiang Yunpo asked in surprise, "You two families aren't working together to fool this old woman, are you?"
Her eyes were sharp as she sized up the people from the Ding and Yi families.
"Humph!"
Ding Sansi flicked his sleeve, his face turning dark.
Being defeated by Su Chen is too embarrassing.
They even called themselves the Water Demons of the Three Rivers, but they were defeated by Su Chen's men so quickly.
Moreover, it was a complete and utter defeat.
It makes it seem like the Ding family are just freeloaders.
"I'm already so old, there's no need for me to fool you over such a trivial matter."
Third Aunt said, "Xiao Xiao, go and invite Mr. Su to take charge of the situation."
After saying that, Yi Xiao walked outside.
The situation instantly became awkward.
Ding Sansi kept giving Jiang Yunpo meaningful glances.
The Four Seas Ancestral Token is, after all, an ancestral precept. Forcibly defying the owner of the Four Seas Ancestral Token would not earn one a good reputation.
Therefore, Ding Sansi's idea is to cooperate with the Jiang family and find a way to give Su Chen a hard time, preferably by making him hand over the Four Seas Ancestral Token.
……
Not long after.
Led by Yi Xiao, Su Chen returned to the ancestral hall to discuss the matter.
As soon as he entered, Su Chen went straight to his own armchair.
Seeing this, Granny Jiang Yun was clearly displeased; she hated a junior riding on her head.
Want her to submit to the younger generation? Dream on!
"Mr. Su, I am honored to meet you!"
Jiang Yunpo nodded slightly to Su Chen, which was her way of greeting him.
Her arrogant attitude made it clear to everyone that she wouldn't give Su Chen much face.
"Now that everyone is here, let's set a date."
Su Chen sat imposingly in his armchair and addressed the crowd.
"No rush, Mr. Su," Granny Jiang Yun said with a smile. "This matter concerns the three of us. Although you possess the Four Seas Ancestral Token, is it really that easy for you to mobilize the power of the three of us?"
Jiang Yunpo said slowly, "How about this, since Mr. Su possesses the ancestral tablet, he should be confident in himself."
“Each of our three families will send a few people to open the Golden Fortress. Whoever comes out the fastest and gets the most treasures will be qualified to become the leader of the three families.”
"Don't say that I'm bullying the weak. Since Mr. Su has a good relationship with the Yi family, you can just align yourself with them."
Jiang Yunpo knew in her heart that if she were to compete with Su Chen again, her Jiang family would only be bringing shame upon themselves.
Why not compare their skills in creating a deep, buoyant solution underwater?
Creating the ancestral golden soup is somewhat difficult, but for the three families, making ordinary golden soup is basically a piece of cake.
"Old man of the Ding family, what do you think of this idea?"
Jiang Yunpo looked at Ding Sansi.
“That’s good, we can give it a try.” Ding Sansi nodded. “The one that takes the shortest time and obtains the most treasures can be designated as the leader of the three.”
"At the same time, he took the lead in opening the ancestral source of Jintang."
Ding Sansi understood what Jiang Yunpo meant.
He also wanted to fight back and get his revenge.
Su Chen's fighting skills are not bad, he doesn't believe that his tomb raiding skills are so strong!
The real test of skill lies in opening the golden pot underwater.
"Then it's settled."
Su Chen nodded.
Neither the Ding family nor the Jiang family posed any threat to Su Chen.
The Su family originally lived in a remote village and almost ran out of food.
If it weren't for tomb raiding, the villagers would have starved to death long ago.
Although their time spent in the tomb was short, it couldn't compare to the tomb-raiding families that had been doing so for hundreds of years.
However, the Su family has been going down to large tombs, top-tier tombs, during this period.
An ordinary tomb-raiding family might be lucky to encounter one such person in their entire life.
The Su family, on the other hand, specializes in tackling the toughest challenges, accumulating experience that is beyond their wildest imagination.
The Su family's experience in tomb raiding is in no way inferior to that of the Ding and Jiang families, and is even stronger than those two families.
This is where Su Chen's confidence comes from.
