Reincarnation: Trying to pretend to be ordinary, but it turns out it's really impossible.
Chapter 259 Tensions Rise
Just as Su Xingbai finished dealing with all his affairs and was about to take Su Ningning down the mountain to rest and recuperate, the atmosphere on the mountain suddenly changed.
A subtle, imperceptible atmosphere filled the surroundings, creating an oppressive feeling.
Su Xingbai's heart sank instantly, and he immediately realized what was happening.
It looks like the Di, Li, and Jiang families are about to make a move.
He didn't dare to delay and immediately rushed to Su Ningning's side.
Su Ningning also sensed a large number of unfamiliar presences around her.
Not only them, but everyone else felt it too. All the alliance disciples still on the mountain were on high alert and began to prepare for battle.
Half an hour ago, Su Yuan met Qin Wenqin, who had come to find him.
Qin Wenqin came over carrying food she had made herself, her eyes gentle and her face smiling.
She quietly handed the food to him, saying that she had made it especially for him.
Looking at the gentle and approachable woman in front of him, Su Yuan felt a moment of disorientation.
Qin Wenqin said gently,
"Ah Yuan, you should try it, it used to be your favorite."
Su Yuan stared at the pastries for a couple of seconds, then obediently nodded.
"It looks delicious, but I'm not hungry right now. Can I eat it later?"
Qin Wenqin frowned and said,
"This is just a small plate of snacks, it won't fill you up. Eat it while it's hot, it won't taste good when it gets cold."
Su Yuan shook his head.
"I really can't eat anymore. I just ate crispy roast duck, honey-glazed char siu, salt and pepper prawns, braised lion's head meatballs, sweet and sour pork ribs..."
The long list of dishes made Qin Wenqin dizzy, and she scolded,
"stop!"
She then saw Su Yuan's aggrieved expression. She tried to control her emotions and smiled gently, saying...
"Mom knows Ayuan isn't hungry, but these pastries won't taste good if they're left out too long. Ayuan, remember to eat them later!"
Su Yuan nodded seriously: "Yes, okay, it looks delicious. I'll eat it after I digest it for a while!"
Qin Wenqin didn't dare to push too hard, fearing it might backfire, so she could only put her mind at ease for the time being and left, looking back every few steps.
Once Qin Wenqin was completely out of sight, Su Yuan, who had just been all smiles, instantly pouted.
He picked up the snacks on the table and threw them directly into the trash can.
A hint of smugness appeared on his face.
"My mother taught me long ago that I should never eat anything given to me by strangers. Do you really think I'm a three-year-old child? That easy to fool?"
. . . . . .
In Su Ningning's courtyard,
The heads of all the families, along with their disciples, had gathered here.
Knowing that Su Ningning was injured and pregnant, he thought of coming over to protect her.
Then I found that everyone had similar ideas.
Not long after everyone arrived, the heads of the Di, Jiang, and Li families appeared.
The head of the Di family spoke first, his tone cold and sinister.
"Su Xingbai, you have a path to heaven but you choose not to take it, and you have no way to hell but you insist on barging in."
If you had stayed out of trouble and not interfered much in ancient martial arts matters, you could still be content being President Su.
But now, I'm afraid there's no chance of them living to go down the mountain and enjoy their newfound happiness.
The Gu family patriarch's face was grim.
"Do you really think you can keep all of us here? If even one of us manages to escape today, your three families will be in deep trouble!"
The head of the Di family chuckled.
"Since we dare to take action, we are absolutely certain that no one here will escape."
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and clapped his hands heavily.
Instantly, hundreds of extraordinary experts surged forth from all sides; almost all of the Di family's elite disciples who could fight were present.
In addition, there were dozens of skilled fighters drawn from the Li and Jiang families.
The entire courtyard was completely surrounded by a dense crowd.
Upon seeing this, the disciples from the five besieged families all turned grave and grim.
Just two days ago, most of the disciples had already returned home. Now, those remaining here are the patriarch, elders, young master, and disciples from the Discipline Hall.
If these people are wiped out, then the fate of these five families will come to an end.
Su Xingbai's expression was cold and indifferent as he glanced down at his phone.
The Jiang family patriarch took in his subtle actions and sneered.
"What, Mr. Su, are you still thinking of calling for reinforcements? Don't waste your energy. To tell you the truth..."
Today, the entire Xiaojiashan area is covered by signal jamming devices; mobile phones have no signal at all, and the network is completely disconnected.
No information can be sent out. Today, you are trapped here and will die.
After hearing what the Jiang family patriarch said, everyone's faces turned solemn and ashen.
Our side only has a few dozen people, while the other side has more than a hundred elite troops. We have no chance of winning in a direct confrontation.
Su Xingbai stepped forward slowly and asked calmly, "Are you sure?"
The head of the Jiang family let out a cold laugh.
"Don't try to stall for time. It's no use dragging this out any longer. None of you will leave here today."
Just then, Su Yuan ran over from the side.
The head of the Li family glanced at Su Yuan, then immediately glared fiercely at Qin Wenqin beside him, his tone filled with anger.
"Didn't you say you'd drugged him? How come he's perfectly fine here?"
Qin Wenqin also looked terrible; she never expected that Li Chenyuan would dare to lie to her!
Su Yuan rushed into the courtyard, ran to Su Xingbai's side, and asked with a puzzled look on his face,
"Dad, what happened? Why are so many bad people surrounding us?"
Su Xingbai whispered some instructions to him.
"It's okay, just remember to protect Mom later."
Su Yuan nodded vigorously immediately.
The head of the Di family looked at the head of the Li family and spoke.
"Brother Li, we originally intended to spare Li Chenyuan's life, but given the current situation, there's no need to keep him alive any longer."
The Li family patriarch's face instantly turned extremely ugly, yet he was powerless to refute it.
Li Chenfan and his companion also heard the words of the Di family head clearly, and knew that Li Chenyuan was doomed to die today.
An undisguised ecstasy instantly ignited in their eyes.
From now on, Li Chenyuan will never be above them again!
Just as the situation was about to become tense, Su Ningning stepped forward.
Upon seeing this, Su Xingbai's heart tightened, and he immediately stepped forward to stop her, his tone tinged with panic.
"Go inside quickly, this isn't your place to do this."
Su Ningning looked unconvinced.
"Why isn't it my turn? At a time like this, I should be standing here."
When the head of the Di family across from them saw Su Ningning appear, a raging fire instantly ignited in his eyes.
In his eyes, all the changes and the collapse of all plans were all thanks to the woman in front of him.
She forced them to take risks and end up like this.
Seeing their exasperated expressions, Su Ningning immediately launched into a sarcastic remark.
"I never imagined you could be so narrow-minded."
If you're not as skilled as others, you might try to gather a crowd to silence them.
No wonder your Di family has been number one for so long; it turns out it's because everyone more capable than you...
"Since you've wiped everything out using such underhanded methods, it's no wonder you can comfortably hold onto number one."
These words made the head of the Di family so angry that his face turned ashen.
"Young friend Su! Even on the verge of death, you're still so talkative. I'll see if you can maintain this tough exterior later!"
