"Old Master Tang!"

Upon seeing the entrance of Old Master Tang, Jiang Wenlong was overjoyed beyond expectation. He cried out and crawled on his knees to the feet of Old Master Tang, hugging his legs tightly.

"Save me, Old Master, please."

He yelled frantically, pointing at Jiang Chen, "He killed people in your house without reason, not only killing my son but also throwing mud on your face, sir. He clearly doesn't have any regard for you or the Tang Family at all. You absolutely cannot let this villain get away with this..."

Jiang Wenlong wailed as if the sky had fallen, tears streaming down his face.

At the same time, a hint of joy flashed in the corner of his eye.

The appearance of Old Master Tang would surely turn his peril into safety, his vengeance into triumph, and bring Jiang Chen to his knees!

The people around, upon hearing this, started nodding their heads in agreement.

In their hearts, they felt the same way; no matter if Jiang Chen was right or wrong, being so impudent in the Tang House, how could Old Master Tang let Jiang Chen off.

A bloody storm was sure to follow!

Tang Jiawei stayed silent, quietly awaiting his grandfather's decision.

Jiang Wenlong, who was hugging Old Master Tang's legs, grew even more agitated upon seeing everyone waiting in silence.

He turned his head crazily and stared fixedly at Jiang Chen.

Hmph, Jiang Chen, you're done for!

Daring to confront the Tang Family, your troubles will never cease.

Ha ha, my son, I will avenge you!

Jiang Wenlong's inner fervor shone in his eyes, filled with the wild pride of impending revenge.

And in that moment, Old Master Tang made his move.

He raised his hand.

A sullen, iron-blue face, as grim as the bottom of a pot.

Suddenly, an immense and powerful aura surged from within him, shooting up to the heavens!

In an instant, aside from a very few individuals, everyone in the vicinity retreated in shock, their expressions greatly changing.

"Is Old Master Tang going to take direct action?"

"It's over, this is truly a fight between a dragon and a tiger now!"

"Jiang Chen is going to suffer!"

The crowd exclaimed.

Ha ha ha ha, Jiang Chen, you're truly finished! Jiang Wenlong was at the peak of his mania; he was just short of cursing at Jiang Chen triumphantly.

But just as everyone thought Old Master Tang was about to engage with Jiang Chen.

Old Master Tang's palm descended swiftly!

"Smack—"

A muffled sound echoed as he fiercely slapped the top of Jiang Wenlong's head.

Thump!

Jiang Wenlong immediately became lifeless, bleeding from all seven orifices and collapsed onto the ground.

Dead!

In an instant, the whole scene fell deadly silent!

Everyone stared aghast at Old Master Tang, unable to believe their eyes.

This show of force was not meant for a clash with Jiang Chen, but to kill Jiang Wenlong outright.

This was submission!

This was backing down!

This was bowing the head!

Old Master Tang, the venerable head of the number one Martial Arts Family along the river, an honored elder respected for years, was actually bowing down to a whippersnapper like Jiang Chen?

This was simply unthinkable!

The eyes of everyone present were filled with shock.

The shock was beyond comparison!

Immediately, the crowd's murmurs of astonishment rose around them.

"Old Master Tang killed Jiang Wenlong?!"

"The Tang Family has... bowed their heads to that young man!"

"This... who exactly is that young man? Investigate at once, we absolutely cannot offend him! Go and check!"

Even at this moment, everyone around found it hard to believe.

Some with quick wit immediately ordered their associates to look into Jiang Chen's background, effectively turning Jiang Chen into a person they must not offend!

Within less than five minutes, the name Jiang Chen had already spread among the prominent Martial Arts Families along the river.

The descendants of all the Martial Arts worlds also came to know that there was someone named Jiang Chen who they absolutely must not offend!

And some of the young descendants from various families even took Jiang Chen as their idol.

The Tang Family had been established for hundreds of years, and this was the first person to make the Tang Family bow their heads!

Dong Wenhua's heart trembled fiercely as he looked at Old Master Tang with a shocked expression on his face. He had thought of many possibilities, but he had never imagined that the matter would end in such a way.

He had never anticipated that Old Master Tang himself would step forward to represent the Tang Family and bow to Jiang Chen!

In that instant, Dong Wenhua felt extreme regret, lamenting why he had not spoken out to support Jiang Chen earlier, and why he had not heeded the advice of his daughter, Xue Yu.

Taking a deep look at Jiang Chen, Dong Wenhua's eyes revealed a complex expression, and a wave of doubt surged in his heart.

Who exactly is this guy?

He certainly couldn't just be the Family Head of the Jiang Family of Jincheng!

It wasn't just Dong Wenhua harboring this doubt; even Tang Chengye and others were equally astonished as they glanced at Old Master Tang and then at Jiang Chen, their eyes filled with shock and utter confusion.

They had all assumed Old Master Tang would step forward for the prestige of the Tang Family, but no one had foreseen that Old Master Tang would directly kill Jiang Wenlong.

This was not about upholding the Tang Family's face; this was like slapping the Tang Family's own face, severely at that.

And this slap had been delivered by no one less significant than Old Master Tang, leaving no room for manoeuvre.

It must be understood that the significance of these people stepping forward was different; it would be without the slightest room for regret!

"Grandfather!"

Tang Jiawei also looked at Old Master Tang in surprise, his face filled with disbelief.

And at the same time, his heart bled.

If he had known earlier that his grandfather would bow his head, he would have just bowed his head himself.

Because Old Master Tang's act of bowing was not on the same level as if he had bowed.

Although both of their bows could represent the Tang Family bowing to Jiang Chen, Tang Jiawei's bow would only mean that the Tang Family within the Flame Dragon Kingdom bowed to Jiang Chen, whereas an elder of the older generation like Old Master Tang bowing meant that the entire Tang Family was bowing to him.

Old Master Tang wasn't just representing the Tang Family within the Flame Dragon Kingdom!

Understanding the influence of their own family very well, Tang Jiawei, besides being shocked, also felt extremely puzzled by Old Master Tang's action.

Not to mention others, even Jiang Chen himself was astonished as he looked at Old Master Tang.

He wasn't surprised that Old Master Tang had killed Jiang Wenlong, but rather, he was astonished to realize that he actually knew this Old Master Tang!

At this time, Old Master Tang's face had lost the grimness it had shown upon arrival. He glared at Tang Jiawei, then turned his head to look at Jiang Chen and said with irritation, "Young Jiang, to attend my birthday banquet and present me with such a grand gift, you are really something!"

As Old Master Tang broke the silence, the crowd was instantly alarmed!

This... Old Master Tang knows Jiang Chen?

Tang Jiawei's expression changed, and a thought flashed through his mind as he abruptly turned to look at Jiang Chen.

Could he be from that place? A core member of the upper echelons?!

At that moment, Tang Jiawei somewhat understood why Old Master Tang stepped forward; if his guess was correct, then his grandfather's intervention would also make sense!

"Wait..." Jiang Chen began in astonishment.

"Wait what? You think you can just come and go as you please? Come with me!"

Old Master Tang interrupted Jiang Chen abruptly, glaring fiercely at him before turning and walking towards the villa.

Jiang Chen chuckled, a strange look on his face.
