Chapter 2005 Beneath the Undercurrents

As soon as Ming Di Sha uttered his words, Jiang Yuanzheng was the first to clap and cheer.

Jiang Yuanzheng deliberately slapped his thigh loudly: "Good!"

He stepped forward.

"Lu Chengwen saved Yuan Shu's life several times, and also saved Xiao Huzi's life. He is a benefactor of the Jiang family."

"The Jiang family has always been grateful and repaying kindness. Even a small favor has been repaid by the two women!"

"So our beloved little sister is actually our niece! I'm so touched! I'm fucking so touched!"

"Cheng Wen!"

Jiang Yuanzheng pointed at Lu Chengwen and said domineeringly, "Yuan Shu's father and grandfather are my father's great benefactors who saved him twice! We are entrusting her to you today, so you must treat her well and not bully her!"

"She is the daughter of our Jiang family's benefactor. If you dare to bully her, our Jiang family will definitely stand up for her!"

"Not to mention the little monkey, we watched her grow up, you have to treat her well too!"

"However, one girl is one price, but we'll have to talk about these two later."

Jiang Shang looked at Jiang Yuanzheng and said, "Go away! Get out of here! Go stand at the back!"

I thought to myself, "You were at least somewhat sensible before, and you even saved face for the Jiang family. Why are you talking business now? Can't we talk about it later?"

With so many people around, do you think this sounds good?!

Mo Chen quickly stepped forward and laughed heartily: "Congratulations, Brother Jiang! Congratulations! Now you have formed a marriage alliance with the Yanzhao Sect. The Jiang family is loyal and righteous, and they clearly distinguish between right and wrong in their actions. They are truly a model for the martial arts world, and a model for us all!"

Xia Yongnian quickly stepped forward and laughed heartily: "I think this little incident just proves that the Jiang family is a family of benevolence, kindness, and integrity! President Lu, you've really hit the jackpot today. This meal doesn't count; you'll have to treat us to a meal later!"

“Yes!” A family leader stepped forward: “Gentlemen, today’s banquet is full of stories. Moreover, they are touching tales of brotherhood and loyalty, spanning three generations, and are truly epic and moving!

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Huang Tianyao descended from the sky: "Looks like it's resolved."

Jiang Xiaohu was overjoyed: "Master!"

"Ah."

Everyone quickly greeted him. Some of the younger people, who didn't recognize him, hurriedly inquired, "Who is this old man? What is his identity?" Those who knew him exaggeratedly explained the situation to them.

"The former king! One of the five elders who led the way in the era of chaotic battles! Known in the martial arts world as the Old Medicine Pot..."

"If he were to fart, the entire martial arts world would be thrown into chaos!"

"No way... he looks quite old."

"You're crazy! Ancient martial artists become more cunning with age. Older martial artists have unfathomable internal strength. They won't just swing their arms or swing their shoulders at you; they'll beat you up with their internal energy! Learn from them."

The old man said, "Patriarch Jiang, everyone."

Jiang Shang felt utterly disgusted!

He had planned to take advantage of Ming Di Sha's intervention to smooth things over and quickly get to the bottom of this, then settle accounts with Lu Chengwen later.

They beat Lu Chengwen to death and claimed that he died suddenly that night, leaving no way to verify the story.

As it turned out, Huang Tianyao actually arrived.

This old man is a disciple of the Heavenly Gang Sect, and he and the Five Elders are from the same system.

It’s not easy.

Huang Tianyao smiled and said, "Patriarch Jiang, I'm afraid this old medicine pot has lost all face. You didn't even invite me to your granddaughter's engagement banquet. Are you afraid I'll drink all your wine?"

Jiang Shang laughed heartily: "How could I dare to overlook this? It's just that you are so elusive, senior, that even if I wanted to invite you, it would be difficult to convey your message. The entire Jiang family is deeply grateful for your presence today! Please, senior!"

Jiang Shang and the entire Jiang family practically surrounded him as they led him inside.

The Jiang family exclaimed excitedly, "Senior, what a coincidence! It's wonderful that you could come! The Jiang family has been waiting for you like we've been waiting for the stars and the moon, like we've been waiting for a celestial being to appear!"

Jiang Yuanshan also said solicitously, "Senior, please take a seat. No, no, you should take a seat. With your status and position, you should take a seat."

Mo Chen hurried over: "Master Yao! Hahaha, Master Yao! Oh, it's so good to see you! Master Yao, in a while, I will be passing away. If you have the leisure and are willing to join in the fun, our Mo family will splash the streets to welcome you!"

The old medicine man laughed heartily: "You old medicine pot have a bad temper. Aren't you afraid I'll get drunk and cause a scene at your birthday party?"

"Oh, not at all! It's an honor for the Mo family that you would dare to come!"

Xia Yongnian respectfully said, "Xia Yongnian greets Senior Yao!"

“Yongnian, you are also the head of a family, there’s no need to be so modest. Please join me at the table.”

Bai Menya gave the final greeting: "Bai Menya, head of the Bai family, pays his respects to Elder Yao."

"Yes. Please sit down."

None of the heads of the four major families dared to disrespect Yao Weng.

Moreover, the old doctor really did give face to whomever he wanted; because White Teeth was too young, the old doctor hardly paid him any attention.

Those are white front teeth!

Even though he's young, he's still the head of the household, but Bai Fangya remained neither arrogant nor overly enthusiastic, nor did he lose his manners.

Huang Tianyao nodded slightly and walked up to Lu Chengwen: "Chengwen, play chess with me when you have time. I've been feeling really bored lately."

"Yes, senior."

Lu Chengwen said, "It's just that my chess skills are not very good. I hope you won't mind my clumsiness, senior."

"In the whole world, only your master can beat me at chess. Go back and take a few pills back to your master for me."

"Thank you for remembering my teacher, senior."

"Don't just stand there, you're the star today, I'm just here to freeload."

Jiang Shang laughed heartily: "Senior, what are you saying? Please take a seat."

Xiaoli said with a stern face, "You old medicine pot, you're quite the big shot."

Jiang Shang laughed heartily: "Xiao Li, how have you been? Oh? Old Ancestor Niu is here too?"

The old ancestor, holding his teacup, said, "Shut up and eat your wine. You old rascal, what are you calling me 'old ancestor' for?"

"Hahaha! Old friends are all gathered here today, I am in a great mood. Cheng Wen, you serve the wine!"

"I... am not senior enough."

The old man tilted his head and said, "You are a disciple of Hun Tian Gang, and there is no one in the world more qualified than you. Little Tiger, you go with him."

Everyone was surprised!

Especially the uninformed onlookers, after Huang Tianyao's supreme reputation spread, almost never looked at him.

He almost only ever gave Jiang Shang a kind look. Jiang Xiaohu, who was usually so imposing and like a prince descended to earth, would stand aside and not dare to utter a word when asked a greeting.

He replied respectfully, "Yes, Master."

Jiang Shang breathed a sigh of relief.

At the very least, he did support Lu Chengwen and also gave the Jiang family face by letting Jiang Xiaohu and Lu Chengwen serve wine.

Jiang Xiaohu and Lu Chengwen are sworn brothers. One of them became a disciple of Hun Tiangang, and the other became a disciple of Huang Tianyao. Today, Huang Tianyao is clearly supporting Lu Chengwen.

However, instead of forcibly suppressing him, the author used the opportunity of elevating Lu Chengwen's status to remind the world, through Jiang Xiaohu, that Jiang Xiaohu also has a ranking.

That means the Jiang family did not lose.

The Jiang family can still stand firm!

The Jiang family still maintains its dignity.

At this moment, Zhao Ritian shouted, "Senior Huang! It's me! It's me, Zhao Ritian! Please... save me!"
