Martial arts have become extinct worldwide, yet I am forced to have a large family.

"Eight hundred and eighty million!?"

Chen Yufen and Yang Jianguo froze in their seats, their minds completely blank.

Eight hundred million?

Not 80,000, not 8 million, it's 800 million!

How much would that cost?

Chen Yufen felt that all her mathematical knowledge from her entire life seemed so barren at this moment.

She couldn't imagine what kind of wealth it was.

If all 880 million were exchanged for brand-new 100-yuan bills, how high would the stack be?

Can you fill this living room?

No, it could probably fill their 100-square-meter apartment.

Is this really a daughter's wedding?!

Is this really not some princess from another country getting married and coming to their impoverished rural area to help alleviate poverty?!

When Jiang Mengyun confessed her feelings to Yang Xian, she mentioned that she would have a dowry of 80 million.

But the higher-ups in the Jiang family certainly knew Yang Xian's value.

Whether it's his ability to break the curse of "the extinction of martial arts lineage" or his possession of the power to break the curse of "the extinction of martial arts lineage".

It's still about his relationship with Bai Chuyi, an SS-level talent.

Either of these two points is enough to drive any martial arts family crazy!

A dowry of 880 million?

In the Jiang family's view, this deal was incredibly profitable!

"Tch, so what if the Jiang family is so great? Trying to bribe people, how vulgar!"

Su Lingling cursed inwardly, but had to maintain a stiff smile on her face.

She admitted that she was jealous.

Although the Su family was considered wealthy, compared to the Jiang family, a behemoth with a history spanning hundreds of years, they were simply insignificant.

Jiang Mengyun seemed quite satisfied with the reaction of Yang Xian's parents.

She continued with a smile, "Not only that, our Jiang family will also provide ten properties in the core area as part of the dowry."

"They...they even gave us a house as a gift?"

Chen Yufen's voice was trembling.

And it's ten apartments in the core area?!

What does it mean to own a house in the core area?

A place where an ordinary person struggles their whole life and still can't afford a toilet!

Jiang Mengyun nodded slightly, then changed the subject and put forward her conditions.

"However, our Jiang family also has a small condition."

"The first son that Yang Xian and I had must take our Jiang family surname and be sent back to the Jiang family home for upbringing until he comes of age."

Upon hearing this condition, Yang Jianguo and Chen Yufen felt as if they were in a bizarre and absurd dream.

Compared to the terrifying dowry offered by the other party, this request is utterly insignificant!

It's just that she takes her mother's surname!

Let alone one, even if you have ten, half of them can take the mother's surname!

and many more……

The Jiang family?

Core area?

A thought flashed through their minds like lightning.

One of the Eight Martial Saints of the South China Sea, that towering giant who guards one side, isn't his surname Jiang?

Is it...

"Excuse me... Miss Jiang, what is your relationship with Senior Jiang Xingtian, one of the Eight Realms Martial Saints of South Sea City?"

Yang Jianguo asked cautiously, even his breathing becoming soft.

"He was my great-grandfather," Jiang Mengyun replied casually.

Upon hearing this, Yang Jianguo instinctively grabbed the table to prevent himself from slipping and falling to the ground.

Finished!

Oh no, I mean they've become rich!

No wonder the son could sit there so calmly in the face of such an exorbitant bride price and dowry!

It turns out this guy wasn't scammed; he really did hook up with an incredibly rich woman!

Yang Jianguo has finally admitted that his son is indeed much more capable than he was when he was young.

Not only did he hook up with a truly wealthy woman, but he also managed to make her pursue him relentlessly, even tacitly allowing him to build a harem!

That brat... what kind of love potion did he give that girl?!

"Cough cough." Chen Yufen finally caught her breath, her tone so warm and affectionate, even more so than towards her own daughter.

"Miss Jiang... no, Mengyun!"

"Auntie, if I may say something, it's still uncertain whether the baby in your belly is a boy or a girl. What if... what if it's a girl, then..."

Her meaning was clear: Yang Xian was now a martial artist and had lost his fertility, so this might be his only chance.

If it's not a boy, then the Jiang family's conditions won't be met, right?

"Auntie, you don't need to worry about that."

Jiang Mengyun revealed a smile that Chen Yufen couldn't understand at all.

"Yang Xian's situation is quite special. Even if he becomes a martial artist, it will not affect his ability to have children."

------

Meanwhile, in the distant core area, the Luo family...

"Sir, here is all the information you requested."

A subordinate dressed in black stood respectfully to the side.

Luo Quan's gaze lingered on a photograph in the file, his brow furrowed.

"Yang Xian?"

Is it really such a coincidence?

After news of Lin Qingxue's pregnancy spread among the upper echelons of the martial arts world, Luo Quan immediately sent people to investigate everything related to her.

Before becoming a martial artist, Lin Qingxue had a boyfriend named Yang Xian.

And this name is exactly the same as the one of the people who saved his daughter in the secret realm.

Luo Quan carefully examined Yang Xian's student photo in the file.

The boy in the photo has black hair and black eyes, and a handsome face; he's the school's most popular guy.

The South China Sea No. 1 High School where he studied was not too far from the hotel where his daughter, Luo Bingyan, stayed when the accident happened.

Is it...

A bold guess formed in Luo Quan's mind.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately sent Yang Xian's photo to Luo Bingyan via the internal communicator.

He received a reply almost instantly.

"It's him, Father!"

"Great!" Luo Quan jumped up from his seat, his face beaming with barely suppressed excitement. "I've finally found you!"

The "key" to breaking the three-hundred-year extinction of martial arts lineage!

This man must be firmly bound to the Luo family!

"Bingyan is pregnant with his child now, that's our biggest bargaining chip!" Luo Quan's eyes flashed, and he made a decision immediately.

"Since we can't find him in person, let's go find his parents first! Finalize this marriage as quickly as possible!"

He ordered his subordinates in a deep voice, "Immediately investigate who from the Luo family is in District B of South China Sea City."

------

"Sir, I have arrived at the neighborhood you mentioned."

Three figures, their auras concealed, appeared at the entrance of Yang Xian's residential compound.

The leader was a fourth-realm martial artist. He pressed the miniature communicator to his ear and lowered his voice.

Luo Quan's voice came through the communicator: "Very good, I'll give you a house number..."

But before they could finish speaking, they found four figures surrounding them.

The four men were dressed in the community's security guard uniforms, but the aura they exuded made the three martial artists from the Luo family feel a chill.

"Sneaking around like this, who are you?" one of the "security guards" asked coldly. "What's your purpose here?"

The fourth-realm warriors, led by the Luo family, were greatly alarmed.

Four realms!

Are you kidding me!

Why are there so many experts in an ordinary residential community?

"Don't do anything! We mean no harm!" He immediately raised his hands to indicate that he had no hostile intentions.

"I don't care what you want to do, you're not welcome here." The "security captain" in front of them said expressionlessly, "Leave now!"

The Luo family's men dared not make any rash moves and could only report in a low voice into the communicator once again.

"Sir, the situation has changed. There are four fourth-realm martial artists blocking our way, and they won't let us into the residential area."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying pressure that made his hair stand on end descended from above.

He suddenly looked up at a pair of eyes high above the residential area: "Wait! There are still beings at the Sixth Realm!"

"I... I think there's more..."

Just as he was in shock, a companion beside him gently tugged at his sleeve and pointed in another direction with trembling hands.

The leader of the Luo family followed his companion's finger and looked down at the roof of another building.

There, a blurry figure stood silently on the rooftop.

"Seven...Seventh Realm Martial Emperor!"
