Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 1211: Chapter 1214: The Past of Blood Blade Sect

”Alright, everyone go and rest first. Supreme Long Huang, Predecessor Li, Hu Zi, Leng Ming, come with me!”

Upon returning to the Jiang Family, Jiang Chen gave a few instructions to the crowd and brought a few people from the Supreme Long Huang to his own attic.

Everyone sat down in the living room, and Jiang Chen glanced at them, organized his thoughts, and spoke softly, ”Leng Ming, do you know about the Zhou Family in the northwest?”

”The Zhou Family?”

Leng Ming was surprised for a moment and said softly, ”I don’t know much about the Zhou Family, only that they don’t have many people, maybe around a hundred. But they control many subordinate families. Aside from Youming Hall, almost all martial arts forces in the entire northwest are related to the Zhou Family. What’s wrong with them?”

”Are you suspecting...” Supreme Long Huang thought of something, his brow furrowed slightly as he spoke softly.

Jiang Chen looked at Supreme Long Huang and nodded gently.

”The actions of the Chen Family and the Liu Family make me have to think this way. Both families are subordinate forces of the Zhou Family, and their purpose in coming to Jincheng is to encroach upon our Jiang Family and Martial Alliance. This time, the Chen Family’s collaborator is Blood Blade Sect. According to President Qiu, Blood Blade Sect was originally a force of the Chen Family. This matter is quite terrifying if you think about it!”

”What do you mean?” Supreme Long Huang was somewhat confused.

”Blood Blade Sect has been established for over a thousand years. Before Blood Venerate appeared, it was always controlled by the Chen Family. And after Blood Venerate appeared, he almost unified the Martial Dao World with Blood Blade Sect. Were the Chen Family and Zhou Family not involved in this?”

Jiang Chen pondered and continued:

”Then why, when the various martial arts forces besieged Blood Blade Sect years ago, did the Chen Family and the Zhou Family not waiver?”

”Plus, last time in Xi Bo, when the people of Blood Blade Sect worked with those from the Dark Church to try to capture Jing Yi, doesn’t it indicate that Blood Blade Sect is already in alliance with the Dark Church?”

”And in the northwest, Youming Hall is already an ally of Soul Devouring Group. At this moment, if we add Zhou Family and Chen Family to the mix, hasn’t the entire northwest’s Martial Dao World completely fallen?!”

Jiang Chen asked several questions in succession, startling Supreme Long Huang and others into breaking out in a cold sweat!

”No no no, that’s absolutely impossible!”

Supreme Long Huang frantically waved his hands, ”If even the Zhou Family has fallen, then this is just too frightening!”

”If Soul Devour Group could plot against the Huangluo Clan a hundred years ago, how could they not plot against the Zhou Family?” Jiang Chen threw out a basis for his argument.

Everyone fell silent, looking at each other, none able to refute.

But if Jiang Chen’s speculation was correct, didn’t it mean Soul Devour Group had already taken over the entire northwest Martial Dao World?!

”However, I think things might not be as severe as we imagine!”

Jiang Chen spoke again, ”Perhaps it’s not the entire Zhou Family that has fallen, but an individual within the Zhou Family who has collaborated with Soul Devour Group, but who has not yet completely taken control of the Zhou Family, thus necessitating the development of other approaches!”

Whew!

”Young Jiang, can’t you say everything all at once? You’re scaring me into breaking out in a cold sweat!” Supreme Long Huang took a deep breath and glared at Jiang Chen irritably.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, then his expression became serious again, ”Anyway, we must investigate the Zhou Family, only...”

”Leave that to us!”

Leng Ming stood up, speaking softly, ”The three hidden families are meant to enter the world, led by the elders with young members to visit the other two big families. In a few days, when the family matters are settled, I will make a trip to the Zhou Family in the northwest.”

Jiang Chen pondered for a while and said softly, ”In that case... let’s not wait a few more days. You should head back to the north now, and immediately have the elders of your family take you to the Zhou Family in the northwest.”

”Okay.”

Leng Ming nodded.

Jiang Chen suddenly raised his hand and added, ”Perfect, you can also use the Zhou Family to pass on the news about the emperor. If the news isn’t spread, it means there is no issue with the Zhou Family. We will then transmit it through another channel. If there’s any activity from the Soul Devour Group after your visit to the Zhou Family, there’s no need for further investigation; just keep a close eye on them!”

”Alright, there’s no time to lose, I’ll leave now!”

Leng Ming nodded, stood up, and was about to leave.

”No!” Jiang Chen said with a light smile, ”When I said now, I didn’t mean for you to leave immediately. Take a rest first; this little delay won’t make a difference.”

”No! Mr. Jiang, you don’t understand the influence of the three great hidden clans within their circle.”

Leng Ming explained earnestly, ”The Zhou Family has a very good relationship with the other Yue Family and visits them very frequently. If there is an issue with the Zhou Family, we must also be wary of the Yue Family. In that case, we would have to be cautious of the entire circle of hidden clans. It’s better to clarify this sooner rather than later, otherwise, I can’t sit still!”

”Is it that serious?!”

Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback and frowned, ”Then you better hurry back. However, don’t tell too many people about this matter. Just let a few senior people know, like Senior Li, Senior Zai Lun, Senior Pu Liang, and maybe add the elder who will accompany you to the Zhou Family!”

”I understand,” Leng Ming nodded, then turned and walked out of the loft.

”Young Jiang, I really have mixed feelings about you!” Supreme Long Huang looked at Jiang Chen and spoke with a helpless expression.

People were stunned for a moment and looked puzzledly at Supreme Long Huang.

”You’re smart and quick-thinking, which is good. Many issues have been resolved thanks to your help, and that truly reassures us.”

At this point, Supreme Long Huang’s face was filled with a grievous look.

”But your mind works too quickly, thinking of problems before they even arise. If these issues turn out to be real, it would be a pain for me. Can’t you think a bit slower and let this old man worry less?”

Hearing Supreme Long Huang’s laments, Li Tianchong and others were briefly shocked and then looked amusingly at Jiang Chen.

”Supreme Long Huang, are you complaining that I think too much? Alright then, from now on, I won’t think about these matters. I’ll just focus on my own responsibilities!”

Jiang Chen said with a smile, then turned to Yan Hu, ”Hu Zi, have the casualty figures from the recent battle been tallied?”

”They’ve been tallied.”

Yan Hu nodded, took out his phone, and opened a document, stating softly, ”Jiang Family guards had eighty-six lightly wounded, seventeen seriously wounded, and nine dead. Brothers from Long Yan returned with thirty-six lightly wounded, eight seriously wounded, and one dead. Brothers from Long Ya suffered sixty-seven lightly wounded, eleven seriously wounded, and three dead.”

Jiang Chen slightly furrowed his brow and nodded with a somewhat somber expression.

”Hu Zi, according to our rules, provide the best treatment for the wounded brothers. Those unharmed receive five hundred thousand each, the lightly injured one million each, the severely injured five million each, and for the brothers who died...”

Jiang Chen sighed and continued, ”Provide them with a generous funeral, send ten million to each of their families, and instruct our local brothers to take good care of their families, raise their children to eighteen, and provide for any elders over sixty who have no children left.”

”Yes!” Yan Hu nodded emphatically.

Supreme Long Huang and the others were momentarily stunned, then looked at Jiang Chen with a newfound respect in their eyes.
