Chapter 916 The Best of Both Worlds

Although the head of the Tan family said this politely, the meaning behind it was that he had to marry her whether he wanted to or not!

He had no choice. It was impossible for him to hold another martial arts competition to recruit a bride. Even if he wanted to call Ji Ying back now, it was too late because he had already left.

Tan Shuxue was very stubborn and said, "I just don't want to get married. I invited Mr. Chen to participate in the martial arts competition to recruit a bride. My purpose is not to get married. If you insist on forcing me, then I will die."

The head of the Tan family felt that his whole body was torn apart. He had indeed heard Tan Shuxue say that she didn't want to get married before, but he always thought that it was just a little girl's rebellion. There was no girl who didn't want to get married, so he didn't take it to heart.

But now Tan Shuxue actually did this kind of thing, which really made him feel overwhelmed: "Shuxue, you are... "

"Head of the Tan family, I have a suggestion. I wonder if you are willing to listen?"

Ruan Yanran's beautiful eyes moved and she spoke at the right time.

"Miss Ruan, you say."

The head of the Tan family was very polite to Ruan Yanran, the eldest daughter of the Ruan family.

"Since Shuxue doesn't want to marry, and Mr. Chen doesn't want to marry her, but the result of the martial arts competition is already a fait accompli, which shows that Mr. Chen and the Tan family are very destined."

Ruan Yanran opened her red lips and said, "So, I think why not consider changing the form, such as Mr. Chen becoming the Tan family's worshiper. In this way, it is not a waste of the fate of both parties."

"Worshiper..."

The head of the Tan family pondered. To be honest, when he first heard Ruan Yanran say this, his first reaction was of course to refuse.

But if you think about it carefully, you will find that this is not impossible.

If he becomes a worshiper, the Tan family does not need Su Chen to do anything, just a title, so that everyone is tied together. In the future, as Su Chen's strength becomes stronger and stronger, the status of the Tan family will naturally rise.

Although worshipers are definitely not as tightly tied to the Tan family as sons-in-law, there are also benefits. The advantage is that Tan Shuxue doesn't have to be married off. In this way, after a few years, Tan Shuxue might have figured it out, and then she can find another good son-in-law.

Thinking of this, the head of the Tan family felt that this matter might be possible.

Su Chen became the Tan family's worshiper, and the matter of the martial arts competition to recruit a bride could be considered a successful solution, with a result that both parties were satisfied with.

He hesitated and said, "Then the ancestral land of the Tan family..."

In theory, if you are not a son-in-law of the Tan family, you are not qualified to enter the ancestral land of the Tan family.

But the head of the Tan family also knew that this martial arts competition was one of the gimmicks to enter the ancestral land of the Tan family. Moreover, if Su Chen was not allowed to enter the ancestral land of the Tan family, Su Chen would definitely not agree to become a worshiper of the Tan family.

"Then, please follow me to the ancestral land of the Tan family, Mr. Chen!"

The head of the Tan family made a decision.

Anyway, even if Su Chen entered the ancestral land of the Tan family, he might not be able to obtain the inheritance therein.

The ancestral land of the Tan family has been entered more than once before, and some of the inheritance in the ancestral land has been obtained by predecessors, but in the past hundred years, no one has obtained the inheritance therein again.

This is also related to the gradual decline of the Tan family. The people of the current Tan family can't pass the test in the ancestral land at all, let alone obtain the inheritance therein?

If it weren't for the fact that the Tan family had declined to a certain extent, they would not have thought of using the trick of recruiting a son-in-law to turn things around.

However, this also shows that the test in the ancestral land of the Tan family is indeed difficult.

Even the first-class genius of Dongzhou may not be able to pass it.

"Please lead the way, Mr. Tan."

Su Chen also smiled.

"Mr. Chen, please."

The head of the Tan family led Su Chen to a carriage. Some senior members of the Tan family, as well as Tan Shuxue, Ruan Yanran, and several of Su Chen's companions, all got in.

As for the other spectators, after watching the excitement of the martial arts competition, they all dispersed.

The carriage drove all the way and arrived at the mansion of the Tan family.

This is because the Tan family is located in Donglin City. Otherwise, if it is located outside Donglin City like the eight ancient families, it will take a lot of time on the road.

After entering the Tan family mansion, the head of the Tan family first ordered his men to arrange the guests to rest in the banquet hall, and then the head of the Tan family personally took Su Chen to the back mountain of the Tan family mansion.

In the back mountain, there was a cave. The head of the Tan family stopped beside the cave, then took out a token and embedded it on a stone tablet next to the cave entrance.

Then, a huge stone blocking the entrance of the cave automatically moved away slowly, revealing the cave inside.

"This is the ancestral land of the Tan family."

The head of the Tan family said to Su Chen, "Mr. Chen, please do as you please, but please note that the ancestral land is only open for twelve hours at a time, so you must come out within twelve hours. If you miss it, you can only wait at least one month before the door to the ancestral land can be opened again."

"I know, thank you, head of the Tan family."

Su Chen smiled at the head of the Tan family and nodded.
