"Young friend, that's too much!"
At this moment, Tang Family elder slightly furrowed his brows, his body shuddered, and an aura much more powerful than Yan Hu's radiated out, enveloping the Tang Family members within it.
Yan Hu glanced at Jiang Chen and spoke in a low voice, "Elder, please don't force me!"
The Tang Family elder was slightly stunned; he hadn't expected that Yan Hu, a young figure from the Semi Venerable Venerable Realm, would respect Jiang Chen so much that he would offend everyone in the conference room because of a single sentence from Jiang Chen.
Using one's own aura to suppress others was indeed a great provocation.
The people in the conference room looked at Yan Hu with surprise; they all felt that Yan Hu's respect for Jiang Chen came from the depths of his heart, which was incredibly unbelievable.
This was a power from the Semi Venerable Venerable Realm! To show such respect to a peer? And to the extent of absolute submission? How could that be?
For a moment, the way everyone looked at Jiang Chen changed!
Dong Tianchen also released his Semi Venerable Venerable Realm aura, enveloping the Dong Family members, but he did not speak; he truly wanted to eradicate the people from the Divine Palace of Beihai Nation to relieve Ouyang Zhen of his tribulation.
The members of Tang Family and Mo Family furrowed their brows as they glanced at Yan Hu before turning to look at Jiang Chen. Without a figure from the Semi Venerable Venerable Realm in their families, they could only bear Yan Hu's formidable presence, their eyes slightly filled with discontent.
The expression on Tang Jiawei's face also darkened to the extreme; he felt the heaviest pressure and was not only unable to speak but even found breathing difficult.
But as the situation was unfavorable, he could see from Yan Hu's attitude—he was afraid that if he spoke again, Yan Hu might suppress him relentlessly, so he could only endure in frustration.
The conference room fell into silence for a time, each person looking at Jiang Chen with different expressions.
"I've got it!"
Suddenly, Jiang Chen slapped his thigh, excitedly speaking out.
At his words, Yan Hu withdrew his aura. Tang Family elder and Dong Tianchen also retracted their auras, and the oppressive atmosphere in the conference room instantly disappeared.
"Head of the Jiang Family, you'd better have thought of something important!" Tang Jiawei said darkly.
Jiang Chen slightly furrowed his brows, glanced at Tang Jiawei, then turned to look at the Lou Family Patriarch, "Elder Patriarch, can we trust the Tang Family? Please do not be polite; you should understand the seriousness of this matter!"
The faces of several members of the Tang Family changed, their eyes filled with anger as they stared at Jiang Chen.
Lou Family Patriarch pondered for a moment, then spoke softly, "The Tang Family is quite unique among the martial families; they focus mainly on foreign matters and tend to pay less attention to domestic issues, except for guarding Xi Bo. However, they are still very trustworthy when it comes to major principles!"
Jiang Chen nodded slightly, raised his hand to give a fist salute towards the Tang Family members, "Head of the Tang Family, I don't know why you are targeting me, but I really hope you can set aside your prejudice against me for now. This time, if not handled properly, it will definitely be a major loss for the Martial Dao World of Flame Dragon Kingdom!"
Tang Jiawei looked at Jiang Chen in surprise, shook his head slightly, and sighed in self-mockery, then laughed and said, "I didn't expect to be schooled by someone your age. I was being narrow-minded! We have no grudges between us, let's set this matter aside for later and first discuss what you've thought of!"
Jiang Chen nodded slightly, his expression grave, "Ladies and gentlemen, the situation is more severe than I initially thought."
Everyone was startled, and sat up straight, their expressions solemn as they looked at Jiang Chen.
"The people from the Divine Palace of Beihai Nation have now been confirmed to be within the Ouyang Family!" Jiang Chen said in a heavy voice.
"What?!"
"In the Ouyang Family?"
"How is that possible?!"
"This can't be possible!"
The crowd cried out in shock.
"When I followed Wen Qiang to the Ouyang Family's Inner Court, I investigated the Ouyang Family's yard and felt a chill in the air in the backyard, the same aura as those two from the Beihai National Divine Palace who could summon the Great Serpent Stygian God!" Jiang Chen explained softly.
The brows of the crowd furrowed deeply, their expressions turning completely solemn.
"They actually dare to hide in the Ouyang Family? How bold!" Dong Tianchen spoke, his face darkening.
Jiang Chen glanced at Dong Tianchen and sighed softly, "They... are probably not hiding in the Ouyang Family!"
"What?! What do you mean by that? Brother Ouyang would definitely not collude with people from Beihai National!" Dong Tianchen's expression shook, looking at Jiang Chen with a face full of shock and anger.
"Brother Jiang, is there something wrong with Ouyang Nan or Ouyang Zhengqi?" Dong Yu asked gravely.
The expressions of the crowd changed simultaneously, all turning to look at Dong Yu.
"Little Yu, do you know what you're saying? How can you suspect them? Brother Ouyang is their father and grandfather!" Dong Tianchen stared at Dong Yu in shock, the people in the meeting room all looking at Dong Yu with faces full of surprise.
The Ouyang Family was one of the four great Martial Arts Families along the river. If someone from their family, either the Family Head or the heir, was colluding with people from the Beihai National Divine Palace, the impact could be huge, potentially affecting the entire Martial Dao World along the river!
"I... I just noticed today that their expressions were unusual when grandfather was examining Old Master Ouyang's injuries!" Dong Yu spoke uncertainly.
"Little Yu, you shouldn't speak recklessly!" Dong Tianchen glared at Dong Yu, reprimanding him.
Jiang Chen shook his head gently, his expression turning ugly, "Dong Yu isn't talking nonsense; they indeed have issues!"
"What?!"
"This can't be possible!"
The crowd exclaimed in shock, Dong Tianchen looking at Jiang Chen incredulously.
Jiang Chen glanced at Dong Tianchen and said softly, "Old Dong, I understand your feelings, and I think, when you were checking Old Master Ouyang's injuries, you must have also thought that there could be a mole in the Ouyang Family, right? You just felt too sorry for Old Master Ouyang to believe it, right?"
Dong Tianchen was momentarily stunned, then he dejectedly lowered his head.
"Mr. Jiang, what exactly is going on? Please, tell us quickly!" Tang Chengye spoke urgently.
Jiang Chen organized his thoughts and said gravely, "What I am about to say next may be shocking, but I hope everyone will not interrupt me. Once I have finished, all of your questions should be answered!"
Everyone felt a jolt in their hearts. Now that the issue has extended to the Family Head and heir of the Ouyang Family, could there be something even more shocking?
At this moment, everyone felt a suffocating sensation, not because someone was exuding a powerful aura, but because suddenly, everyone felt as if a vast cloud was slowly unfolding overhead!
Jiang Chen scanned the crowd and began slowly, "The matter has to start from when Lou Family Patriarch was attacked..."
