C1702 Taking Advantage of the Situation
Of course, if the Helian Family was still at its peak, the Sima family wouldn't come looking for an abandoned son and offend the Helian Family for no reason.
Now, let's not talk about how bad the situation of the Helian Family was, even if the Helian Family could turn the tables, The losses they had suffered were not fake. In the end, they would need time to lick their wounds.
The other families had the same thoughts of adding insult to injury, but they were also afraid that the snake would bite them instead of killing them. After all, the Helian Family had been prosperous for so many years. Who knew what kind of abilities they had hidden?
People always seek benefits and avoid harm. The Helian Family had yet to run out of fuel. At most, those families would only cause trouble behind their backs. They would take the opportunity to take a bite, but they didn't dare to do anything on the surface.
As for the reason why the Sima family had come looking for them at this time, the first reason was that even when the Helian Family was at its peak, the Sima family wasn't at a disadvantage. They didn't want to offend the family for no reason. They didn't want to offend the family for no reason. It wasn't like they were really afraid of the Helian Family.
The other reason was that the Sima family had a justifiable excuse.
After all, even if everyone knew that Sima Teng was an abandoned son of the Sima family, normally, the Sima family wouldn't care about his life or death. However, if they really did care, no one would be able to say anything wrong.
In this way, the Sima family had a reason on the surface. The Helian Family couldn't refute that the Sima family shouldn't take revenge for their people. They couldn't take revenge for the Sima family because they wanted to take advantage of the situation.
As for the secret, the Sima family would be on guard. Now that the Helian Family's main focus was on the Chu Family, they wouldn't spend too much effort to take revenge on them.
Once the matter was over, if the Helian Family won, they wouldn't be unaffected. They would need some time to recuperate. At that time, it wouldn't be too late for the Sima family to make a move or find an opportunity to apologize.
If the Helian Family lost, the Helian Family would no longer exist in the end. There was no need to take revenge on the Sima family.
Because of the excuse, the hatred of the Helian Family was firmly planted in the Chu Family. The Sima family wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to gain some profits.
"Aiya, Brother Helian, you're not a fool. I don't want to help you, but Brother Helian should know that we have no grudges with the Chu Family, so it's not good for us to kill you for nothing. "
Sima Family Head laughed and wanted to get rid of this topic. Sima Family didn't want to get involved at this time. He wasn't willing to help the Helian Family offend the Chu Family.
The Chu Family was now in a very aggressive state, and the Sima family didn't want to get involved in this matter. The 'explanation' given by the Helian Family wasn't enough for the Sima family to face the Chu Family's losses in the future!
As long as the patriarch didn't lose his mind, he wouldn't agree to this.
"The Sima family's patriarch isn't willing to help. The Helian Family won't be able to provide a satisfactory explanation to the Sima family's patriarch. "
Helian Bo wasn't angry at the fact that Patriarch Sima was taking advantage of the situation, but he wasn't willing to let him take advantage of the situation.
That was why he said that he wanted the Sima Family to help the Helian Family deal with the Chu Family. If the Sima Family was really willing to help, Helian Bo wouldn't mind giving them an explanation.
He would just treat it as paying a price in exchange for a partner.
After all, the Chu Family seemed to have completely suppressed the Helian Family, making it unable to fight back. However, as long as the Sima family was willing to, they wouldn't be able to hold on even if they attacked the Chu Family at this moment.
Of course, at that time, the Sima family and the Helian Family would suffer a great loss. Even if they swallowed the Chu Family, they would need to recuperate for a period of time.
The Helian Family had no other choice. The Chu Family was the first to declare war. They wouldn't let the Helian Family go no matter what. The Sima family really didn't want to interfere.
"Aiya, why can't the Helian Family give it to us? Can't the Helian Family Master say that the Helian Family isn't willing to give us an explanation?"
"It's not that the Helian Family isn't willing to give the Sima family an explanation, but it's true that they can't give us an explanation now!"
"Brother Helian is not being honest! The Sima family didn't want to seek revenge from the Helian Family. They said that they wanted an explanation, but they didn't say that the lion would ask for something that they couldn't give. Anyway, those Helian Family might not be able to hold on for long. They might as well give it to me. "
The patriarch of the Sima family was certainly unwilling to give up so easily. At this moment, he had already offended the Helian Family by asking for an explanation from the Helian Family. If he didn't get it, wouldn't he be suffering a loss and offending someone for no reason?
When Helian Bo heard the patriarch of the Sima family, his face darkened, and he gritted his teeth.
What did he mean by he might not be able to keep it for long? Wasn't he saying that the Helian Family wouldn't be able to withstand the attack of the Chu Family, and it would be over sooner or later?
Regardless of whether the Sima Family really thought so, saying it in front of Helian Bo was equivalent to throwing his face on the ground and stepping on it.
However, no matter how aggrieved he was, Helian Bo really couldn't provoke the Sima family at this time. No matter how angry he was, he could not fall out with the Sima family at this time.0
"Okay! I'll get someone to send this' explanation 'to the Sima Clan!"
After a moment of silence, Helian Bo still agreed. However, his tone sounded like he was gritting his teeth. It was obvious that he was a little angry.
"The Helian Family Master is straightforward! My foolish brother will wait here!"
The Sima Family Master did not care about Helian Bo's emotions. Regardless of whether or not he offended Helian Bo, at least the benefits he wanted were real. He could get the benefits just by touching him from top to bottom. The Sima Family's Patriarch was naturally extremely satisfied.
The reason Chu Yun had sent someone to inform the Sima Family about Sima Teng's death in Helian Family was because he believed that the Sima Family would take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the situation.
As long as the patriarch wasn't a coward, he wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity. After all, the hatred of the Helian Family was firmly rooted in the Chu Family. As long as they didn't push them too hard, the Helian Family would be willing to compromise.
The patriarch of the Sima Family wouldn't mind offending or not. The Helian Family had always been ambitious and wanted to take control of the Yanbei. The Sima family was the stumbling block to the Helian Family's ambition. There was no lack of cooperation and friction between them. As long as there were benefits to be found, they wouldn't really fall out with each other.
In any case, the Chu Family was going against Helian. If there was a reasonable excuse, Which of the remaining families didn't want to get a share of the profits?
The Sima family did not have an excuse first, and they just treated it as a show. They were waiting for the outcome of the battle between the two sides, and then they would see the final result to decide whether they would be the last one or the last one to kick them while they were down.
With the excuse given by Chu Yun himself, the Sima family would definitely be willing to take a bite of the Sima family when both parties had no intention of opposing the Sima family.
