"Second Uncle, do we really need to apologize to the mere Family Head of the Jincheng Jiang Family?"
Yue Tingheng muttered discontentedly.
"A mere Jincheng Jiang Family?" Dong Tianchen glanced at Yue Tingheng and indifferently said, "Do you know what it means to provoke Mr. Jiang?"
"What does it mean?" Yue Tingheng looked at Dong Tianchen blankly.
Dong Tianchen said detachedly, "Provoking Mr. Jiang means provoking the Five Great Martial Arts Families along the river, it means provoking the Chixiao Sect, Unchanging Valley, Huangluo Clan, and the Flame Dragon Group!"
"What? He's involved with so many powers?!" Yue Tingheng was shocked and stared dumbfounded at Dong Tianchen.
"Wait!"
Yue Taiming suddenly thought of something and stared straight at Dong Tianchen, "Uncle Tianchen, the elixirs of the Five Great Martial Arts Families along the river..."
"Taiming, some things are better known without being spoken. Do not talk recklessly before the great Elixir-making Competition in Elixir Valley!" Dong Tianchen spoke in a grave tone.
Yue Taiming's complexion changed slightly, and he nodded gently.
"Let's go, we will head to the back mountain," Yue Tailin spoke softly.
Yu Hui stayed behind to take care of Yue Shaoting, while everyone else, including Wu Mingzhong, hurried to the back mountain.
The back mountain of the Yue Family.
Following the Ancestor Yue, Jiang Chen and his group came to a large cave on the back mountain.
This cave was the ancestral hall of the Yue Family. In front of the northern wall of the cave were placed the spiritual tablets of various ancestors from the Dong Family, and there was incense and offerings on the altar table. In front of the table, more than a dozen meditation cushions were laid out.
As soon as Jiang Chen entered the cave, his gaze was drawn to the highest ranking spiritual tablet in front of a row of tablets, and his expression instantly turned grave. He bowed deeply to the rows of tablets, followed by Yan Hu and the others who did likewise.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please take a seat!"
The elder in black robes gestured towards the meditation cushions and sat at the foremost one. The elder in blue robes seated himself next to him, while Jiang Chen and the others casually took their seats.
"My name is Yue Tianzheng, the oldest old fellow in the Yue Family. This is my sworn brother, Lan Tingxu," the elder in black introduced softly.
"The young one is Jiang Chen, and these are my brothers and sisters, Yan Hu, Spirit You, Qingyuan Yingzi," Jiang Chen introduced his group.
"Huangluo Clan's Leng Ming, I pay my respects to both Ancestors!"
"From the Imperial Guard Army of the Li family, Li Tianchong, I pay my respects to both Ancestors!"
"I am Song Wanqiu of the Jincheng Song Family. This is my guardian, Uncle Wang Zongming."
Everyone introduced themselves in turn.
Yue Tianzheng nodded lightly and scanned everyone. His gaze lingered on Spirit You for a moment before finally looking at Jiang Chen, "Mr. Jiang, your acquaintance with friend Leng Ming and the high regard from friend Li means you must know of the Dragon Descendant matters, right?"
"Li..."
Jiang Chen paused for a moment before suddenly realizing, and with a light chuckle nodded after glancing at Li Tianchong, "Yes, I know about the matters regarding the Dragon Descendant, but not in great detail."
Pfft!
"Ha ha, Friend Li! My goodness!" Leng Ming couldn't help but burst into laughter, looking at Li Tianchong with an odd expression.
Li Tianchong smiled awkwardly. Being referred to as a youth at his age of over a hundred, he himself almost couldn't react, but he didn't object at all. Ancestor Yue was of the same generation as his grandfather; it was quite normal for him to call him a youth.
Yue Tianzheng glanced at Leng Ming and blinked, not understanding why he laughed.
Jiang Chen quickly changed the subject, "Ancestor Yue, the details that Ancestor Li previously mentioned weren't very specific. Could you tell me what exactly does being a Dragon Descendant mean?"
"Since Brother Li Jiang hasn't told you, it naturally means the time isn't right yet. Don't ask too many questions; when your strength has risen once more, someone will naturally tell you!"
Yue Tianzheng gave a faint smile, glancing at Spirit You with a meaningful tone, "Mr. Jiang, have you ever heard of the Shadow Clan?"
Here it comes!
Jiang Chen muttered in his heart; he knew this was the crucial point Yue Tianzheng had summoned him for. His identity as a Dragon Descendant was not disclosed to him, meaning it must be due to other matters.
Spirit You's eyebrows lightly furrowed while Yan Hu and Qingyuan Yingzi exchanged a glance, subtly shifting their positions to sit on either side of Spirit You, warily watching Yue Tianzheng and his companion.
Leng Ming and Li Tianchong felt the atmosphere suddenly tense up, quickly rising to sit in front of Spirit You, shielding him and staring straight at Yue Tianzheng and his companion.
Yue Tianzheng and Lan Tingxu were momentarily taken aback, casting suspicious glances at Leng Ming and the others.
"I know!"
Jiang Chen nodded: "Moreover, I know much more about it than Ancestor Yue does."
"Oh?" Yue Tianzheng was slightly startled, looking at Jiang Chen with surprise.
A glint of cold light flashed across Lan Tingxu's eyes as he said coolly, "Mr. Jiang, are you sure you know more than we do?"
"Of course!" Jiang Chen replied firmly.
Yue Tianzheng and Lan Tingxu exchanged a glance and simultaneously turned to look into Jiang Chen's eyes.
"We would like to hear the details," Yue Tianzheng said solemnly.
Jiang Chen glanced at Spirit You and then looked seriously at Yue Tianzheng, "Ancestor Yue, Ancestor Lan, are you two aware of Lord Xue?"
"Lord Xue? Do you mean Lord Xue or Blood Venerate?" Yue Tianzheng sought confirmation.
"Lord Xue!" Jiang Chen emphasized once again.
Yue Tianzheng's eyes conveyed a trace of reverence, "Of course, we know. Lord Xue was a great man. His establishment of the Blood Blade Sect almost dominated the Martial Dao World at one point. Furthermore, Lord Xue was known for his noble and upright life. The founding of the Blood Blade Sect was merely to help and protect his brothers. It was only later... Sigh!"
"Since Ancestor Yue is aware of Lord Xue, that will make things easier!"
Jiang Chen smiled faintly, "You both view the Shadow Clan with hostility because of the incident with the Blood Venerate a thousand years ago, right?"
"Indeed! The Blood Venerate was extremely brutal back then, turning the Blood Blade Sect into an evil Sect. Moreover, as far as I am aware, Blood Venerate's master joined a hidden family with the Blood Blade Sect, but to this day, we still don't know which family it is! If we did, I would ensure their complete destruction!" Yue Tianzheng spoke with a face full of anger.
"Which family it is doesn't matter now; that family and the Blood Blade Sect have already become history!" Jiang Chen lightly waved his hand.
"History?!" Yue Tianzheng and his companion looked at Jiang Chen in surprise.
Jiang Chen spoke softly, "Not long ago, the Blood Blade Sect was completely annihilated. We all participated in that battle, Zhen Feng too!"
Yue Zhenfeng was momentarily stunned, then came to a realization and nodded gently, "Yes, I also participated in the battle where the last of the Blood Blade Sect perished, alongside Mr. Jiang and the others!"
"Good! Good! The fall of the Blood Blade Sect and the downfall of the family behind them, this is a fortune for our Martial Dao World!" Yue Tianzheng expressed his joy.
"Wait a moment!"
Lan Tingxu suddenly interjected, looking at Spirit You with suspicion, then turned to Jiang Chen, "Mr. Jiang, you said the person also took part in the final battle that obliterated the Blood Blade Sect?"
PS: It seems I shouldn't have boasted without thinking; now I'm feeling a bit disheveled from the wind...
Damn it, I feel like I'm getting deeper into debt.
Wuuu...
