Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 819: Chapter 822 Big Brother, Can You Help Me?

River Ancient Capital.

Once the capital of Flame Dragon Kingdom.

Here, one-third of the Martial Arts Families along the river gathered.

Lou Family was one of the first-class families in the ancient capital, second only to the Four Great Families, among which the Ouyang Family, ranked second, was also in the ancient capital.

On the outskirts of the ancient city, a Knight XV and a Rolls-Royce Phantom were driving towards the ancient capital.

”This guy following us all the way is really diligent!” Jiang Chen, sitting in the back seat, glanced at the rearview mirror and turned to look at Zhu Wenqiang next to him.

Zhu Wenqiang gave a wry smile and said helplessly, ”Do these guys wish I were dead sooner? They’re keeping such a close watch on me!”

”No! If the guy following us wanted you dead, you’d already be dead.”

Jiang Chen gently shook his head, ”That guy is a Heavenly Peak Grandmaster; he must be the one bringing extreme danger to you.”

”This...” Zhu Wenqiang hesitated for a moment and whispered, ”Should we take him down and ask who sent him?”

Jiang Chen shook his head slightly, ”No need for that trouble. When we get to the Ouyang Family, we’ll naturally find out who is after you. No rush.”

Zhu Wenqiang nodded slowly, took another glance at the rearview mirror, and didn’t concern himself with that person anymore.

Last night, when Yan Hu was breaking through, he was right there. Once he confirmed Yan Hu’s strength, his heart finally settled. With someone that strong by his side, he wasn’t afraid at all.

The two cars entered the ancient capital and drove straight to an antique mansion in the East District.

Click-click!

They parked the cars in the small parking lot in front of the mansion; Jiang Chen and the others got out of the vehicles.

”This is the place!” Wen Jie came to Jiang Chen’s side, pointed at the mansion, and spoke softly.

Jiang Chen looked up and surveyed the mansion.

This antique mansion was quite similar to the Jiang Family Courtyard but a bit smaller. A plaque was hung above the gate with the words ’Lou Family’ on it.

”Let’s go, meet the girl who fell in love with you at first sight,” Jiang Chen teased Wen Jie.

Wen Jie gave a wry smile and said, ”Boss, don’t make fun of me, I’m worried.”

With a bitter shake of his head, Wen Jie walked toward the guards at the entrance of the Lou Family mansion, and Jiang Chen and the others smiled lightly, following suit.

”I am Wen Jie of Jincheng from the Zhang Family, I have an appointment with the Family Head of the Lou Family, and I’m here today for the meeting!” Wen Jie spoke softly.

The guard at the Lou Family gate was slightly stunned, and then replied softly, ”Please follow me. The young miss instructed that if Young Master Zhang arrives, to lead him directly to the guest hall.”

”Well, well, everything seems to be arranged perfectly,” Meng Yanran spoke with a hint of jealousy in her voice.

Wen Jie smiled awkwardly and stepped into the Lou Family.

When entering the Lou Family, Jiang Chen glanced to the left side of the street, where a Audi A8 was parked with a middle-aged man inside watching Jiang Chen and the others.

Noticing Jiang Chen’s gaze, the middle-aged man lowered his head and, once Jiang Chen and his group entered the Lou Family, started the car and drove towards the Central Region of the ancient capital.

Upon entering the Lou Family, Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback. Behind the shadow wall of the Lou Family was a sea of flowers; the entire front yard was filled with blooming blossoms.

”This... The Lou Family is quite elegant!” Jiang Chen spoke softly.

The guide-guard glanced at Jiang Chen and said with a soft chuckle, ”Our young miss likes flowers, and the whole house is filled with them everywhere.”

”Haha, so your young miss doesn’t just like flowers, she also likes handsome men!” Jiang Chen joked lightly.

Meng Yanran turned her head and glared at Zhang Wenjie. Zhang Wenjie gave a wry smile and clasped his fists towards Jiang Chen, showing a submissive expression.

”Haha!” Jiang Chen laughed heartily, no longer teasing Zhang Wenjie.

Accompanied by the guards, they walked past seas of flowers, through a long corridor, and arrived in front of an ancient-style pavilion named ’Welcoming Guests Pavilion’ as indicated by a signboard.

”Please come in, sirs. I will go and report to the young miss right away!” The guard gestured towards the inside of the Welcoming Guests Pavilion.

Jiang Chen and his companions nodded and stepped into the Welcoming Guests Pavilion.

Inside the Welcoming Guests Pavilion, the design was similar to that of ancient times with two chairs in the north, separated by a square table, and on both sides, eight chairs, each pair flanked by another square table.

”This Lou Family’s decorations are even more like those of ancient houses than ours,” Jiang Chen remarked, sitting down on the first chair to the left.

Zhang Wenjie smiled faintly, took the first chair on the right, and whispered, ”Most of the martial arts families in the ancient capital are like this. There are many old houses here that maintain this ancient style. I heard from the elders in my family that the Jiang family used to be the same, only that...”

He halted, showing a slightly apologetic smile towards Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen dismissed it with a wave of his hand, signaling it was okay. He knew what Zhang Wenjie left unsaid. If not for the great calamity that nearly wiped out the Jiang family eighty years ago, the Jiang family would probably look the same today.

Meng Yanran and the others took their seats, with Meng Yanran sitting below Zhang Wenjie, followed by Yan Hu, whose task was ensuring the safety of Zhang Wenjie and another.

Zhu Wenqiang sat below Jiang Chen, with Mo Bao following him.

Thump, thump, thump!

After waiting for a while, they heard the sound of hurried footsteps. Before the person arrived, a somewhat immature voice shouted, ”Who dares to look down on my sister? Show yourself to your young master!”

As the voice ended, two figures entered the Welcoming Guests Pavilion.

The one in the lead was a boy around seventeen or eighteen, and the other was a middle-aged man with a grim face.

Upon entering, the boy scanned the crowd and shouted at Zhang Wenjie, ”Is it you who scorned my sister? I’ll tell you...”

Mid-sentence, the boy suddenly turned to look at Jiang Chen and exclaimed, ”Big brother, what are you doing here?”

Everyone in the Welcoming Guests Pavilion looked at Jiang Chen in surprise. At this moment, Jiang Chen was staring at the middle-aged man following the boy, his eyes filled with cold intent.

The middle-aged man felt a shiver in his heart and a hint of confusion in his eyes. Who is this man? Why does he harbor such intense killing intent towards me?

Hearing the boy’s words, Jiang Chen paused, looking puzzled at the boy, ”Do you know me?”

”Big brother, I am the wind of autumn, no, I mean, I am Lou Qiangqiang.” The boy ran excitedly to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen remained puzzled, frowning slightly and staring straight at Lou Qiangqiang.

”Uh... right, you don’t know me,” Lou Qiangqiang said awkwardly, but then his eyes shone with joy as he gazed at Jiang Chen, ”Big brother, I, I...”

Before he finished speaking, Lou Qiangqiang’s face turned red, and he looked at Jiang Chen expectantly, whispering, ”I like Ling’er. Can you help me out, big brother?”

”What?” Jiang Chen looked at Lou Qiangqiang in surprise, clearly confused, ”You, when have you ever seen Ling’er?”

”I saw her when I was traveling to Dingjing. The moment I saw Ling’er, I fell for her. She showed me your photo, and she said that if I could earn your approval, she would consider me. Big brother, you must help me!” Lou Qiangqiang reached out and gripped Jiang Chen’s arm, a look of hope in his eyes.

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and shook his head.

Then, his eyes turned cold again, and he looked up at the middle-aged man, asking in a chilling tone, ”You first tell me what your relation is to him!”
