The Ancient Martial Arts Chen Family.
"Boom!!!"
A deafening sound echoed as the wooden plaque of the Chen family was split in half!
The character "Chen" was cleaved into two!
Standing in front of the Chen Family Village was a hunched old man with white hair, looking as if he was on the verge of attending his own funeral.
"Who is it?"
"Who dares to barge into our Chen Family Village?"
Soon, the pillars of the Chen family, Chen Daoguan and Chen Shouchong, rushed out, their bodies radiating terrifying internal energy, their demeanor arrogant.
But upon seeing the old man, their expressions changed drastically.
All their imposing aura vanished.
"Grand... Grandmaster?"
As experts of the Hua Jin level, they naturally had sharp eyes. Anyone daring to enter the Chen Family Village alone had to be a formidable figure, especially with the old man's internal energy almost materializing into a terrifying protective barrier.
Undoubtedly, a Grandmaster!
Why would a Grandmaster come to the Chen Family Village? And judging by his demeanor, he seemed hostile.
"Grandmaster, why have you come to our Chen Family Village?"
Chen Daoguan and Chen Shouchong immediately wilted. They briefly considered waking their family head from his secluded cultivation, but quickly dismissed the thought. Facing a Grandmaster, possibly even a peak Grandmaster, even if their family head had reached the Grandmaster level, it would be futile!
Jiang Shoulu's expression remained cold. "Your Chen family has quite the audacity, daring to lay hands on someone from the Jiang family!"
This statement left Chen Daoguan and Chen Shouchong utterly baffled. They exchanged glances. What did this mean?
Had they overindulged last night, leading to mental confusion?
The Jiang family?
The Jiang family they knew? The top-tier family in the ancient martial arts world of Dragon Country, with a Heavenly Jin Grandmaster overseeing them—the Jiang family of the capital?
How could this be?
"Ahem... So it's the Grandmaster from the capital's Jiang family! May we ask what our Chen family has done to offend you?"
"Grandmaster, could there be a misunderstanding? Our Chen Family Village has always been law-abiding..."
"Do you know Chen Ningshuang?" The old man's words instantly silenced Chen Daoguan and Chen Shouchong.
"Ningshuang... has she offended your Jiang family?"
Jiang Shoulu nodded. "Chen Ningshuang injured the grandson of our family head. You should know who our family head is, right?"
Chen Daoguan and Chen Shouchong's hearts sank.
They were utterly doomed!
The current head of the Jiang family—Jiang Yunhuang, a Heavenly Jin Grandmaster, the top martial artist in the first and only martial arts tournament, and the director of the Dragon Country Ancient Martial Arts Administration!
Injuring his grandson... this wasn't just touching a tiger's tail.
This was pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth—a death wish!
Chen Ningshuang, oh Chen Ningshuang, you've outdone even your brother! Did you think your Hua Jin cultivation gave you the right to act recklessly?
Now you've provoked the Jiang family, a behemoth... the entire Chen family might be doomed!
"Grand... Grandmaster, is there any chance for reconciliation?" Chen Daoguan asked, his voice trembling.
If reconciliation was impossible, he would change his name on the spot, abandoning the Chen family and taking his mother's surname, becoming Ai Daoguan!
Chen Shouchong's eyes darted around; a true man knew when to bend.
Jiang Shoulu didn't rush to respond. With his peak Grandmaster strength, annihilating the Chen Family Village would take mere minutes.
If this were decades ago, he would have slaughtered the village without hesitation. But now, in a society governed by law, and with the family head being the director of the Ancient Martial Arts Administration...
"Based on the young master's condition, if anything happens to him... no one in the Chen Family Village will escape. I'll stay here for the next few days."
Chen Daoguan and Chen Shouchong: "......"
All they could do now was pray that the mysterious young master didn't suffer any serious harm, or else... they were doomed!
...
"Wuwuwu... Jiang Che, big brother!"
Upon hearing that Jiang Che had been hospitalized after being attacked, Qin Qiaoqiao skipped class and rushed over.
The girl's heart and eyes were filled with Jiang Che; she was utterly smitten with him.
In the hospital room, Jiang Yuan tugged at Jiang Yunli's sleeve. "Wife, we should go!"
But Jiang Yunli had no intention of leaving. She crossed her arms, lifting her ample bosom, a figure straight out of a Korean webtoon, her stunning physique on full display.
Jiang Yuan sighed and decided to step out for a smoke.
"Hmph... why are you crying? I'm not hurt!"
Honestly, facing a girl who adored him so much, who cried for him... Jiang Che couldn't remain indifferent.
"You're lying! I heard you were attacked by a powerful ancient martial artist."
Qin Qiaoqiao lifted her head from Jiang Che's chest, her eyes brimming with tears.
Jiang Che didn't explain further, simply gently patting her head.
Soon, Qiangwei and Dong'er arrived. Qiangwei also threw herself into Jiang Che's arms, while Dong'er sat quietly by the bed.
This scene left Jiang Yunli utterly stunned.
When did these two girls appear???
She didn't recognize Qiangwei and Dong'er at all!
She was still stuck in the old version with Yu Wan'er, Qin Qiaoqiao, and Ye Mengyao, unaware that Jiang Che had already upgraded multiple times.
But then... Yu Wan'er and Ye Mengyao also walked into the room.
The once-spacious hospital room suddenly felt crowded.
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5..."
Jiang Yunli counted with a trembling voice. Wait! Don't forget Wang Yanran, who was engaged—that made six!
This was absolutely insane!!!
But amidst her shock, Jiang Yunli began to feel a sense of anticipation. More girls meant more grandchildren for her. She had been feeling the pressure lately, as some of her close friends had already become grandparents.
Sometimes, women's inexplicable competitive spirit just worked that way.
However... Jiang Yunli had missed one person!
"Jiang Che! Jiang Che, what happened?"
Gu Lingfei rushed into the room in a panic. She had been in the middle of a company meeting when she abruptly left to come here.
Though she often complained about Jiang Che's playboy tendencies, deep down, she doted on her godbrother.
And so, the hospital room became a picturesque scene.
Lolis, young girls, and mature women—all were present.
Jiang Che could only sigh helplessly.
"Damn, I'm surrounded by beauties?"
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
