Outside the Yue Family's ancestral hall cave, Yue Taiming and others stood at the entrance with complex expressions.

While waiting, Dong Tianchen narrated what he knew about Jiang Chen's past.

"Holy crap, this Mr. Jiang..."

"He's a true man!"

"No wonder the Huangluo Clan and all of you respect him so much!"

"An idol!"

The members of the Yue Family exclaimed in amazement.

Dong Tianchen smiled slightly: "Tingheng, didn't you just say there's no need to take Mr. Jiang so seriously?"

"I... I thought the Jiang Family of Jincheng..." Yue Tingheng spoke with a look of embarrassment.

"Indeed, the Jiang Family of Jincheng is just a secular family, but as long as Mr. Jiang is present, the Jiang Family of Jincheng is no less than any pinnacle family in the Martial Dao World. Mr. Jiang alone is a martial arts pinnacle family!" Dong Tianchen declared emphatically.

All members of the Yue Family nodded in agreement, looking at the cave with a hint of admiration in their eyes.

Boom Boom Boom!

The stone door of the cave opened, and a group of people walked out.

"Mr. Jiang!"

"Family Head Uncle!"

"Grandfather!"

Everyone called out one after another.

"Master!" Wu Mingzhong stepped forward with a light laugh.

"Elder Wu, I told you there's no need to call me master," Jiang Chen said with a helpless smile, slightly surprised, "What are you doing here?"

"I came to treat the old master of the Yue Family!" Wu Mingzhong admitted with some embarrassment: "I'm ashamed to say, I failed to cure him."

"Mr. Jiang, long time no see!" Dong Tianchen stepped forward from the crowd and approached Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen replied with a light laugh: "Senior Dong, you're here too. How is that girl Dong Yu doing?"

"Xiaoyu is also here, at her classmate's house in Zheng City," Dong Tianchen responded with a smile, then turned to look at Yue Taiming.

Yue Taiming understood and saluted with a cupped fist: "Mr. Jiang, you have come to our Yue Family, and we have been negligent. Please forgive us!"

"Yes, yes, yes, it's our negligence!"

Yue Taizhong also quickly saluted with cupped fists. Earlier in the cave, he was awed by Jiang Chen's identity and hadn't thought about his attitude toward Jiang Chen these past two days. Now reminded by Yue Taiming, he suddenly realized.

"Mr. Jiang, I hope you won't take it to heart!" Yue Wujie also saluted with cupped fists, he was the clearest among those present about the significance of being a Dragon Descendant!

Yue Taiming and a few others were surprised. They didn't expect Yue Wujie to act this way, and their hearts suddenly filled with doubts—what exactly happened inside the cave?

The atmosphere at the mouth of the cave had become somewhat eerie.

"Everyone, don't be like this. I can understand your attitude towards me. To call off the engagement is already embarrassing for me, and with you acting like this, I'm going to feel even more ashamed!" Jiang Chen said half-jokingly.

Everyone laughed, easing the awkward atmosphere.

"Mr. Jiang, I would like to ask for your help," Yue Taiming seized the good mood and attempted to make a request.

Jiang Chen was slightly surprised, glanced at Wu Mingzhong, and understood. He asked softly, "Is it about the old master's illness?"

"Yes!"

Yue Taiming nodded, glanced at Wu Mingzhong and Dong Tianchen, and said seriously: "Divine Doctor Wu and Uncle Tianchen both said that this injury cannot be treated by anyone other than Mr. Jiang. I hope Mr. Jiang can lend a hand to save my grandfather!"

"Mr. Jiang can cure it?!" Yue Zhenfeng was surprised.

Yue Taizhong glanced at Li Tianchong and spoke softly: "Senior Li also said that Mr. Jiang can treat the injury, Mr. Jiang you..."

"So many of you are selling me out, huh?" Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow playfully.

Li Tianchong, Dong Tianchen, and Wu Mingzhong smiled embarrassingly.

"Mr. Jiang, please take action. Our Yue Family will surely show great gratitude!" Yue Tailin saluted with cupped fists.

"Regardless of whether Mr. Jiang takes action or not," Yue Taizhong said solemnly. "I declare, from today onwards, the Yue Family and the Jiang Family form a life-and-death alliance. I hope Mr. Jiang will agree!"

"A life-and-death alliance?!"

"This..."

Yue Taiming and a few others looked at Yue Taizhong in astonishment.

"Yes, our Yue Family is willing to form a life-and-death alliance with the Jiang Family. Please, Mr. Jiang, agree to this!" Yue Wujie also spoke with a serious face.

This...

The eyes of Yue Taiming and the others changed.

As one of the three major hidden families, the Yue Family has always been one that others sought attachment to. This was the first time they had actively proposed forming a life-and-death alliance with someone else. This made Yue Taiming and the others once again wonder, what exactly had happened inside the cave?

"Yue Family Head, Lord Yue, since the Yue Family holds me, Jiang Chen, in high regard, I will not refuse. However, I must make it clear; although I trust the character of the Yue Family, I must be frank—if one day the Yue Family acts against the Martial Dao World, or against the Flame Dragon, don't blame Jiang Chen for being ruthless!" Jiang Chen said seriously.

"Of course, if one day my Yue Family does indeed have someone who commits such actions, there's no need for Mr. Jiang to take action; the Yue Family will clean its own house!" Yue Wujie declared resolutely.

Yue Taiming and others were completely flabbergasted.

What is this situation?

The Yue Family voluntarily requesting an alliance, and still being laid down the law by Mr. Jiang?

This, this... What exactly happened inside this cave? It seems that the Family Head and the Lord are trying to woo Mr. Jiang, and there seems to be a hint of flattery, what's going on?

"Let's go, let's go see the old master!" Jiang Chen called out.

"Alright!" Yue Taizhong responded, taking the lead to show the way.

Jiang Chen and his party followed closely behind the Yue Family.

"Zhen Feng, what's going on?" Yue Zhenting intentionally lagged behind, grabbed Yue Zhenfeng, glanced at the others ahead, and asked in a low voice.

Yue Zhenfeng looked at Jiang Chen ahead and said with admiration: "Big brother, to tell you the truth, I'm not very clear either. I only know that the two ancestors value Mr. Jiang quite highly. When we were coming out of the cave, the First Ancestor spoke to me with a mind transmission. Judging from the content of the transmission, it seems that the First Ancestor has also communicated with Dad and Grandpa, telling us to establish a good relationship with Mr. Jiang and said that the future of our Yue Family rests on Mr. Jiang!"

"What? Concerning the future of our Yue Family?!" Yue Zhenting exclaimed.

The people walking ahead turned their heads to look at Yue Zhenting and Yue Zhenfeng.

"What are you doing?" Yue Taizhong's mind moved, and he called out sharply: "Hurry up, don't think about disturbing the two ancestors."

"Coming, coming!" Yue Zhenfeng responded and the two quickly caught up with the rest.

Jiang Chen glanced at Yue Zhenfeng and his companion, a look of confusion appeared in his eyes, feeling that there was something off about the two, which caused him an inexplicable sensation.

Ever since his identity as a Dragon Descendant became known, almost everyone who knows his identity has changed their attitude towards him. Why is this?

What exactly is a Dragon Descendant, and what secrets does it hold?

It seems I need to find an opportunity to make a breakthrough. Ancestor Yue said that after breaking through, someone would tell me!
