But Chen Tianjing's prayers were in vain after a few days.
In the family hall of Yong'an City, Chen Tianjing handed the letter he had just received to Chen Tianquan and others beside him.
As the others were reading the letter, Chen Tianjing said with a serious expression:
"This letter was sent by someone from the Cui family. Tianquan, Tianmo, Tianling, what do you think?"
Soon, several people who read the contents of the letter also frowned slightly.
In the letter, the Cui family hoped that the clan would go to reinforce them in consideration of the cooperative relationship between the two clans, and the letter also stated that as long as the clan provided support, the Cui family would give a generous gift.
The letter also emphasized that his Cui family had a thing called "Higanbana", which could help warriors comprehend combat skills in their dreams and double their efficiency.
In addition, the Cui family also wrote down several other natural treasures, including some resources that can be used by warriors in the Qi Control Realm.
These things would be envied even by a medium-sized family, not to mention a small one.
The reason why the Cui family wrote these in the letter was naturally that as long as the family sent people to support, they would be able to get the things mentioned in the letter.
After a few people thought about it for a while, Chen Tianleng spoke first:
"Clan leader, even the Cui family is seeking support from the clan. Does this mean that the two clans are really preparing for war?"
Chen Tianjing shook his head slightly:
"Tian Yu has not yet arrived there, and has not yet investigated the situation clearly. Everything is still unknown. But judging from the actions of the Cui family, perhaps this is not a test."
"Do you think the family should go to support?"
Chen Tianquan on the side pondered for a moment, then said:
"Clan leader, the Cui family is willing to offer a huge reward to help the family, so they must be looking for a warrior in the clan who can control the Qi. However, the family does not have a warrior in the clan who can control the Qi now, so I think the family should refuse the Cui family's request for help this time."
Chen Tianmo also spoke at this moment:
"But if we refuse the Cui family's request for help, the cooperative relationship between our family and the Cui family will probably come to an end. We may even offend the Cui family. The resources in the hands of the Zhao family alone are far from enough for the family's needs."
The words of the two also made Chen Tianjing sigh.
This was exactly what he thought of, so he was a little hesitant.
Without sufficient resources, the improvement speed of several innate warriors in the clan will be much slower, which will greatly affect the development of the family.
But even if they went to support, the innate realm warriors seemed to be insufficient. He didn't think that a medium-sized family like the Cui family would lack a few innate realm warriors.
If they really sent a few innate realm warriors over, the Cui family would probably think that the family looked down on them, which would easily lead to misunderstandings.
Warriors at the Yuqi Realm are what they need, but in the battle between medium-sized families, warriors at the Neigang Realm may be insufficient.
But now the family doesn’t even have a warrior at the Qi Control Realm, let alone a warrior at the several levels of the Qi Control Realm.
As for Great-Uncle Changming and Clan Brother Tianshun, they are both the family's secret means, and they are also related to the power of the family's sacred tree. They must not be exposed, otherwise the family will inevitably become the target of public criticism, which will be even more troublesome.
After thinking for a while, Chen Tianjing already had the answer in his mind, which was to reject the Cui family.
Although this would offend the Cui family and break up the cooperative relationship that the family had worked so hard to build, compared to family secrets, the former two were still acceptable.
If the Cui family really goes to war with the Sun family, they probably won't be able to take care of the more distant families, so it won't matter whether they offend them or not.
After Chen Tianjing expressed his idea, several people nodded slightly.
"The family has blood rice and blood rice fruit. Even if we don't want to trade with the Cui family, we can choose other families."
"That's right. It doesn't matter if we cultivate a little slower. I see that Qingsui, Qingshui, and Qingfang in our clan are about to reach the great success of the blood coagulation realm. I think within two years, there will be a few more innate realm warriors in our clan. Then the resources exchanged with the Zhao family can be used on them."
"Okay, that's decided! However, during this period of time, please pay attention to the movements of other families around you. Although your family will not participate in the battle between the two sides, you still need to be on guard."
"Yes, Patriarch."
After several people left, Chen Tianjing still chose to send a letter back.
The letter said that the elders of the family had been concentrating on cultivation recently and were in seclusion, so they were unable to provide support. If the nobles needed it, the family could send a warrior from the Innate Realm to provide support.
This is Chen Tianjing’s reply.
In this way, it will not offend the Cui family too much. As for sending innate realm warriors, it is naturally an excuse, and I think the Cui family will not accept it.
After replying the letter, Chen Tianjing began to think about the family’s future plans.
The resources in the Innate Realm are quite important. During this year, Chen Tianjing and others, including himself, have made rapid progress. It won’t be long before he can break through to the middle stage of the Innate Realm.
Since it is impossible to obtain the corresponding resources from the Cui family, then we will try to get resources from other families.
However, the transaction with the Cui family also made Chen Tianjing realize that if he wanted to obtain resources in this area, he still had to start from the middle-sized families.
In a small family, other resources are quite scarce, let alone innate resources.
We didn’t trade with medium-sized families before because our family was not strong enough, but with the help of Uncle Changming and the sacred tree, we can give it a try.
After coming up with the idea, Chen Tianjing asked his clansmen to find out information about the nearby medium-sized families and prepare to make a selection.
However, I'm afraid I'll have to wait until this storm subsides before making a decision.
As for Chen Tianyu who rushed to the scene of the battle between the two sides, Chen Tianjing did not choose to recall him.
Even if this war has nothing to do with the family, mastering the latest intelligence is indispensable for a powerful family.
When there are more members in the clan and the family is more stable, Chen Tianjing will prepare to let some of the clan members go out for training. The training does not have to go too far, just around a thousand miles around the family.
In this way, the family can get the latest news about the surrounding area at the first time.
After the letter was sent, the family did not receive a response from the Cui family for a long time.
This was also within Chen Tianjing's expectations.
However, due to the spread of information about the war between the two sides, the family earned a lot of jade coins due to the massive purchase of hemostatic herbs on the market. Even most of the herbs that the family had previously stockpiled were sold.
As for the remaining part, the family does not plan to sell it, but to keep it for the clan members to use.
Some minor injuries, there is no need to use the power of the family sacred tree.
The family spent the next few days in peace. Even though many small families near Yong'an City sent a number of warriors to check the situation on the battlefield, or perhaps more to look for opportunities, the family never took any action.
Not long after, news about Chen Tianyu also came from there.
According to what Chen Tianyu had found out, the Cui family and the Sun family were currently only engaged in a small-scale battle, and neither side had dispatched the Qi-Controlling Realm warriors in their clans. Based on other information, it seemed that the two families had conflicts a long time ago, and this battle might have been caused by the deepening of the conflicts between the two clans, which triggered this war.
