Jiang Minglou, Jiang Mingcheng, and the others also stared intently at Elder Master Jiang, their eyes brimming with tears.

Thinking that the elder brother who had taken care of them since they were young was indeed still alive but had been trapped for so many years filled their hearts with the same anger as Jiang Chen!

"Don't be like this, Chixiao Sect... has not mistreated Ming Long!" Elder Master Jiang sighed and spoke softly, "Wait for me a moment."

As soon as his words fell, Elder Master Jiang got up and walked towards the northern bedroom, while Jiang Chen and the others stared fixedly at him, even continuing to gaze at the bedroom door after he had entered.

Before long, Elder Master Jiang walked out of the bedroom, now carrying a large cardboard box.

"These are the letters Ming Long wrote back home, brought by someone from the sect once a year. This year, when Xiaoqin came back, someone from the sect had already delivered the letters. Take a look," Elder Master Jiang placed the large cardboard box on the stone table.

In the large cardboard box, there were thick stacks of letters!

"Father, this is the first letter I am writing to you. I want to tell you that I... I am doing quite well at the sect, they want to focus on cultivating me!"

"Father... Today, the sect gave me an Elixir, there actually exists such a thing in this world that can aid in cultivation..."

"Father..."

Shen Xiaoqin and Jiang Chen tirelessly opened all the letters and carefully read each one, but the more they read, the paler Shen Xiaoqin's face got and the deeper Jiang Chen's brow furrowed.

"Why? Why? Why has he not mentioned me and Chen'er? Why?" After reading all the letters, Shen Xiaoqin collapsed back into her chair, her face ashen as she spoke, a look of despair in her eyes.

"Dad wrote it!" Jiang Chen suddenly realized something, his brow relaxed, he spoke resolutely.

"Wrote it? Where? Where!" Shen Xiaoqin stood up hurriedly, once again rifling through the letters, with Jiang Minglou and the others also joining the search.

With a cold expression, Jiang Chen said, "Dad wrote it, in every single letter, but someone deliberately smeared it out. The places in the letters that were smeared must be where dad mentioned our mother and son!"

As he spoke, Jiang Chen was staring straight at Elder Master Jiang.

"Really? Is that so?" Shen Xiaoqin looked at Elder Master Jiang with a panic-stricken face, on the verge of collapse she said, "Dad, it's like that, isn't it? Ming Long hasn't forgotten about us, mother and son, right? Right?"

"Yes! Ming Long hasn't forgotten about you both; he mentioned you in every letter!"

Elder Master Jiang looked at Shen Xiaoqin and her son with remorseful eyes: "It's my fault. I should have realized it sooner. I... When I received these smeared letters, I originally thought the Sect had smeared out any of Ming Long's complaints, never suspecting it was something else, until I discovered Chen'er and then it finally dawned on me."

"I have wronged you and your son. I was foolish to let you both drift for twelve more years! I am sorry!" Elder Master Jiang said, tears falling as he got up and was about to kneel before Jiang Chen and Shen Xiaoqin.

"Grandfather!"

Jiang Chen caught Elder Master Jiang, speaking softly, "Grandfather, this is not your fault. After all, you didn't know about my existence at the time, so you couldn't have suspected that dad was writing about us in his heart. If we were to blame anyone, it would be Chixiao Sect. What do they want to do? Why erase the messages of dad's heart about me and mom?"

"This matter... I think it's also related to Ming Long's cultivation. Since Chixiao Sect doesn't allow Ming Long to come home and wants to use his longing for family to make him cultivate harder, then probably..." The Great Elder mentioned a speculation, but didn't finish his thought.

Elder Master Jiang sighed, "Yes, the Sect deliberately erased the news of you and your mother, intending to turn his longing into motivation. He fought back, but was forcefully suppressed and threatened with the lives of you and your mother. He could only write his yearning in letters, even though he knew they would be erased by the Sect. He still had to write!"

"Bastards! These bastards of the Chixiao Sect!" Jiang Chen gritted his teeth as the uncontainable killing intent spilled from his being.

He couldn't imagine, his father persisting in writing despite knowing it would be erased, using this method to express his inner longings.

Such a feeling, how arduous! How painful!

"Chen'er, although the Chixiao Sect's actions in this matter are somewhat improper, they have indeed treated your father well. It's also clear from other pieces of information that the Chixiao Sect is truly focused on cultivating your father, so you..." Elder Master Jiang was startled by the killing intent surrounding Jiang Chen and quickly tried to comfort him.

"They could erase the content of the letters, couldn't they also have changed it?"

Jiang Chen asked in anger.

"No, I've had friends from the Academy of Sciences authenticate it. These are all Ming Long's handwriting, with no traces of alteration," Elder Master Jiang shook his head.

Jiang Chen's thoughts shifted, and he reined in his killing intent, speaking coldly, "Without seeing it with my own eyes, I will not believe the Chixiao Sect. Grandfather, tell me where is the Chixiao Sect located? It wasn't written in the letters. Did the erased parts mention it? I want to find my dad, I want to bring him back!"

"The erased parts didn't mention it, and ever since the founding of the state, the Chixiao Sect has cut off contact with us. We only know the Chixiao Sect is in Province S, but as to the exact location, we don't know," Elder Master Jiang said, gently shaking his head.

Jiang Chen's brows furrowed tightly as he glanced at Shen Xiaoqin, who was covered in tears, and said solemnly, "I'm going to Province S right away, I must find the Chixiao Sect!"

"No!"

Shen Xiaoqin grabbed Jiang Chen in a panic, "Don't do it, Chen'er, if you also get detained by the Chixiao Sect, how will I live on!"

Jiang Chen's face changed, and he fell silent.

Such a scenario was not impossible, and moreover, he harbored some secrets; if those were discovered by the Chixiao Sect, it would truly be a disaster.

"It's okay, Chen'er can go."

The Elder Master softly spoke, "The strongest person in the Chixiao Sect is a half-step Venerable Realm fighter. Even if Chen'er can't defeat him, he can still retreat safely. Moreover..."

At this point, the Elder Master looked at Jiang Chen with a profound gaze and continued, "In Ming Long's last letter, he mentioned if our Jiang Family has another person with a bloodline concentration similar to his and is an Innate Grandmaster, they can go to the Sect and open a secret location together with him."

There are great benefits inside that secret location, but those benefits can only be reaped by someone whose bloodline is concentrated to a certain degree.

In the entire Sect, only Ming Long and the Sect Leader's son have such bloodline concentration, but three people are required.

There is no doubt about Chen'er's strength; he is the son of Ming Long, the person most likely to meet the standard of bloodline concentration. If he goes there, he might even gain some benefits!"

Jiang Chen immediately nodded, "Good! Then I'll make the trip!"
