Tomb raiding: Intercepting Yin Xinyue and building a family of immortals

The night passed, and Mrs. Xu went straight to the antique shop.

She had no choice but to do this, because what happened last night had far exceeded her expectations; she never had anticipated it.

In just one night, the power dynamics in Shanghai underwent a dramatic transformation.

"Su Chen! What exactly did you do? Last night, the major forces started fighting each other and almost burned the entire city of Shanghai down."

Mrs. Xu's words were not an exaggeration. The Green Gang's headquarters was burned down, and the tacit understanding between the major forces was broken.

Even the government doesn't dare to directly intervene in this matter anymore.

Upon receiving the news, Mrs. Xu had no other thoughts; she instinctively felt that Su Chen was responsible and rushed over as soon as she heard the news.

Su Chen, who was enjoying his morning tea, spoke calmly after hearing this.

Did I do this?

"Are you crazy? You're going to get us all killed!"

Mrs. Xu could almost imagine that if these people were to realize what was happening, they would probably kill them all on the spot.

Even if Su Chen is incredibly capable, it won't be of much use then.

She never expected that Su Chen would be so arrogant as to kill the leaders of three different factions right in front of these people, single-handedly stirring up trouble.

Su Chen nodded and said calmly.

"Don't worry, Du Hun, Rong Jinhuang, and Lin Xingxu are all dead. The tacit understanding between the Shanghai forces originally stemmed from the balance secretly reached by these three forces. Now that the balance has been broken, they have no time to care about us."

"Once these people have finished digesting their subordinates, the first thing they'll do is deal with us."

Mrs. Xu looked at Su Chen in astonishment. She never expected that Su Chen really had the ability to kill these three people.

This could indeed cause chaos, giving Su's Antique Shop a temporary respite.

But once the situation in Shanghai stabilizes, won't the surviving forces worry about becoming the next Du Hun? They'll definitely join forces to attack Su Chen.

That's the real trouble.

Seeing Mrs. Xu so flustered, Su Chen simply smiled at her and spoke calmly.

“I am aware of your concerns, but there is no need to take them to heart, because I will let the waters remain murky.”

"What do you mean?"

The original headquarters of the Green Gang has been reduced to ruins. In a warehouse on the dock, Xing Yunfa, the former second-in-command, is having his men treat the wound on his arm.

After receiving news of Du Hun's incident yesterday, various forces immediately attacked, and in just one night, the Green Gang's territory was reduced to only a quarter, and even that quarter might not be safe.

As for the countless brothers who died, there were also two other forces that were hit hard: the Rongjin Chamber of Commerce and the Lin family.

They no longer have the same influence in Shanghai, and no one knows how long they will need to recover.

Xing Yunfa looked at the other two people sitting opposite him: Rong Hua, a young man in a suit with an ugly face, and Lin Xingcai, Lin Xingxu's younger brother.

"Gentlemen, things have developed to this point. If the three of us continue to be wary of each other, we will only have one path left: death."

“I’ve said it before, the Su family must be something special, and I’ve told you all this many times, but nobody cares.”

Lin Xingcai slammed his hand on the table and said through gritted teeth.

Rong Hua of the Rongjin Chamber of Commerce, with a gloomy expression, tried his best to calm himself down and took a deep breath before speaking.

"Now that we've come this far, it's too late to say anything. The most important thing right now is to join forces, gain a foothold, and then send that guy to his death!"

"Su Chen!"

Mentioning this name makes Xing Yunfa want to kill someone.

But at that moment, the warehouse door was suddenly pushed open.

A figure walked in.

Chen Yulou looked at the warehouse full of people and guns, but his eyes did not show any concern. To be precise, he did not care about this matter. Compared with the hundreds of thousands of Xieling bandits, this small scene was really not a concern for him.

"you are?"

"Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Chen Yulou. Some of you should know me."

As Chen Yulou's voice fell, the three men's expressions shifted between anger and uncertainty. Only after their subordinates pointed him out did they realize that this guy was Su Chen's subordinate.

Upon learning his identity, the people present almost instantly regarded him as an opponent and stepped forward to kill him.

"So you're one of Su Chen's men. I was just wondering how to settle accounts with him, so I'll start with you."

"This guy's life is mine, so don't you dare take it from me."

"If I were to do it, I could interrogate him."

Faced with the words of the three people, Chen Yulou showed no sign of panic. Instead, he glanced at them with a smile and sneered.

"You guys really have no brains. If it weren't for my family patriarch, would you be sitting in your current positions?"

"you!"

Xing Yunfa was about to take action, but Ronghua stopped him.

He vaguely guessed the other party's purpose in coming, so instead of having the others take action, he asked them a question.

"Since you've come, you must have something to say."

"If the nine families join forces to annex you, I think the three major powers now would be in dire straits."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yulou knew that his plan had only partially succeeded, and immediately spoke up.

"If you want to survive now, you only have one choice: cooperate with me. With the Su family secretly supporting you, you will eventually return to that position."

As his voice faded, the expressions on the faces of the three leaders changed.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't tempted, but cooperating with the Su family was a bit hard to accept.

Ronghua fiddled with the ring on her middle finger, her eyes slightly lowered as she spoke.

"That suggestion is a bit like killing someone's spirit. Do you think we're fools?"

"In the end, this is all because Du Hun and his group wanted to divide up Su's Antique Shop. Since you wanted to make the Su family bleed, you should have been prepared to pay the price. Now the price has been paid, and we have common interests."

Chen Yulou wasn't worried about not being able to persuade these people. He knew that once they had tasted power, these people would never give up the benefits they had gained.

"What if we say no?"

Upon hearing this, Ronghua frowned and asked in return.

What he wanted to say was what others wanted to say as well.

"Then we'll wipe you all out first, and then deal with the other nine forces."

Chen Yulou frankly stated his plans, then looked at the three people and revealed a devilish smile.

"Now, tell me your choice: will you die for Du Hun and the others, or will you sit in their seats?"
