“To be precise, the ancestor of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Hongtao, was severely injured by the King Realm expert of the New Moon Organization on the day of the great change. His injuries are very serious, and his situation is not good.”
“As you know, a King Realm expert clan, especially one that only has one King Realm expert presiding over it, is supported to a large extent by that King Realm expert…”
“Dongfang Hongtao’s situation is not good now… So the Dongfang Clan’s situation is naturally not good either. As a King Realm expert clan, the Dongfang Clan has occupied a considerable share of the profits in the Guangdong area.”
“However, these shares are basically supported by Dongfang Hongtao, a King Realm expert. Once Dongfang Hongtao falls, then… the share of benefits that the Dongfang family originally occupied will immediately attract the competition and encroachment of various factions. Even the Dongfang family will be in danger!”
“It’s naturally torturous for Big Sister Mingzhu, as a member of the Dongfang family!”
“Sigh, it’s a pity… My grandfather isn’t around. With my current strength, I don’t have much say in our Yang family. Otherwise, I would definitely help Big Sister Mingzhu ease her predicament.”
“Is that so? I understand now!” Chu Zhou said in understanding and ended the call.
“Dongfang Hongtao was seriously injured because he fought for humanity! The Dongfang family shouldn’t decline just like this!”
Chu Zhou muttered to himself and decided to help the Dongfang family.
In the Yang family!
“So heartless … I’ve just finished talking about Big Sister Mingzhu and you hung up on me.”
Yang Zhenzhen said angrily. At the same time, the huge stone in her heart disappeared.
During this period of time, she had been worried about Dongfang Mingzhu.
Unfortunately, even though she was from the Yang family, she could not get the Yang family to help the Dongfang family for the time being.
She could only stay anxious.
However, Chu Zhou knew about Dongfang Mingzhu’s situation now.
Based on her understanding of Chu Zhou, he would definitely not stand by and do nothing.
With the appearance of Chu Zhou, the new uncrowned King Realm expert, the Dongfang family should be able to escape their predicament.
Night descended and the lanterns had just been lit!
The manor of the Dongfang family was brightly lit.
Today was the 300th birthday banquet of the Dongfang Family’s patriarch, Dongfang Hongtao. The Dongfang Family attached great importance to this birthday banquet and held a grand banquet.
The banquet had 300 tables.
However, even so, the 300 tables were quickly booked. Those who were qualified to have a seat were all famous figures in Guangdong Base City.
More people were only qualified to send a congratulatory gift to their doorstep before returning home.
However, the Patriarch of the Dongfang Family, Dongfang Changming, Dongfang Yulan, Dongfang Changtian, and the other two core members of the Dongfang Family did not feel happy at all when they saw the lively scene in front of them. Instead, they felt a bone-chilling coldness.
The main reason why their Dongfang family had held this birthday banquet was to invite the King Realm experts of the Ji, Ning, and Zhao families, who had always been on good terms with the Dongfang family, to come as guests. They wanted to rope in their friendship and intimidate the forces that coveted their Dongfang family.
However, the King Realm experts of the Ji, Ning, and Zhao families had yet to arrive.
Even though there were many guests in front of them, they were basically from some small families and forces.
To be honest, it was not of much help to the Dongfang family.
“Damn it, are the Ji Clan, Ning Clan, and Zhao Clan so political? Our Dongfang Clan has been on good terms with them for so many years… We’re just inviting the ancestors of the three clans as guests. Aren’t they going to give us any face at all?”
Dongfang Changtian said in an irritable voice.
Dongfang Yulan looked at Patriarch Dongfang Changming with a worried expression. “Brother, don’t tell me the Patriarchs of the three great clans aren’t coming!”
“If the Patriarchs of the three great clans don’t come, I’m afraid the future of our Dongfang Clan will be at a very disadvantageous state!”
Dongfang Changming took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. “Don’t worry. The Ji, Ning, and Zhao families have all accepted our invitations. This means that someone will definitely come.”
“While our Ancestor’s condition isn’t good, he’s still here after all. I’m sure the Ancestors of the Ji, Ning, and Zhao families will give him some face.”
At this moment, someone outside the manor sang,
“Ji Family, Ji Chengyu has arrived!”
“Ning Family, Ning Cheng has arrived!”
“Zhao Family, Zhao Jinghui has arrived!”
“Hahaha, the people from the Ji, Ning, and Zhao families are here. Let’s go and welcome them.”
When Dongfang Changming and Dongfang Changtian heard the name, they immediately laughed out loud. The worry on their faces instantly disappeared.
They strode towards the entrance of the manor like the wind, preparing to welcome the people from the Ji, Ning, and Zhao families.
Only Dongfang Yulan frowned, feeling that it was a little strange.
Those three names did not seem to be the names of the Patriarchs of the three great clans.
Logically speaking, if the Patriarchs of the three great clans had arrived, the person who was calling out their names should have directly said the names of the Patriarchs.
“Perhaps the Patriarchs of the three great clans are keeping a low profile, so that the person who called out their names doesn’t say their name, but the name of their family’s juniors!”
Dongfang Yulan comforted himself and walked towards the entrance of the manor with a smile.
“It’s the Ji Clan, the Ning Clan, and the Zhao Clan. I heard that the Dongfang Clan has always been on good terms with these three great clans. Now, it seems that it’s true. As everyone knows, there’s a huge problem with the Dongfang Clan’s Ancestor now. The Dongfang Clan’s situation is in imminent danger.. If not for their good relationship with the Dongfang Clan, the people from the three great clans would definitely not have come to increase the reputation of the Dongfang Clan…”
