“Young lady? The Gaos’ young lady? Are you kidding me? Is the current Gao Yue still qualified to be our young lady?”

The man with the loudest voice was still shouting. Jiang Chen could imagine his disgusted look when speaking, even though there was a door between them.

Gao Ke strode over. He opened the door and said, “The lord of the Gaos is lying in here. Are you going to rebel and act so uncontrolled?”

His words immediately quieted the whole room.

“Gao Ke, don’t talk nonsense. We really have things to tell Gao Yue!” a few seconds later, the man with the loud voice said.

“Gao Li, I’m the acting lord of the Gaos. Talk to me if you have something to discuss, unless you want to act beyond your authority!” said Gao Ke.

“Huh, in a word, you’re protecting your sister, the traitor of the Gaos,” Gao Li rebuked audaciously. Obviously, the acting lord didn’t have enough authority to stop him.

Gao Yue walked out the door and said, “Uncle Li, why did you say I was the Gaos’ traitor? What did I do?”

As soon as she appeared, the people outside of the door all held their breath. They opened their eyes wide and stared at her.

“Gao Yue… as the eldest young lady of the Gaos, you were supposed to lead the family to a better future.” Gao Li started to make his prepared speech, but it wasn’t as aggressive as he had planned.

“I wanted to contribute to the Gaos, too, but the Gaos don’t need me. Among those who wanted to drive me out of the Dragon Field, you were the firmest, weren’t you, Uncle Li?” said Gao Yue.

“You clearly knew why we drove you away!”

“No matter who I’m with, I still can contribute to the family. My son is also an excellent youngster. Didn’t he defeat one of the Gao descendants?” said Gao Yue.

Jiang Chen came forward to stand next to her. He laid his eyes on Gao Li.

He was a man more than fifty years old, strong and large. The ends of his thick eyebrows were forked and turned up.

Sizing up Jiang Chen with his cold eyes, he said, “Huh, the descendant your son defeated was much weaker than the child you should have given birth to.”

“You don’t get to make the standard, Uncle Li,” said Gao Yue.

Gao Li knew it wouldn’t be easy to make Gao Yue go with him. He had to frustrate her first.

He said, “Are you saying it was a mistake that the Gaos punished you?”

“I wasn’t pregnant then. I didn’t know what would happen, but now, I’m sure my son is beyond even your imagination.”

Gao Yue was, apparently, very proud of her son.

“So maybe he has at least thin phoenix blood?” Gao Li said sarcastically.

The purity of phoenix blood was classified as thin, thinner than normal, normal, thick, pure, and super pure.

The phoenix blood in Gao Yue’s body was super pure. If her child didn’t even have thin phoenix blood, it meant she had made a big mistake.

Gao Yue had chosen Jiang Qingyu so firmly because besides love, she didn’t believe in political marriages.

“Better than thin. I told you my son isn’t any worse off than the descendants of the Gaos’ direct line,” said Gao Yue.

“Arrogant. I don’t think he even has any phoenix blood flowing in his body,” said Gao Li.

“Exactly. How dare you say someone so mediocre is better than a descendant of the Gaos’ direct line?” Lily, in the crowd, showed how mean she was once again.

“Sister,” Gao Ke frowned. He didn’t know what she was up to.

Gao Yan wanted to use Gao Yue as a bargaining chip and marry her into the remote association, but if it was only because the Murongs had Ning Haotian, he was overreacting a bit.

Gao Ke naturally assumed Gao Yue was only a chess piece in Gao Yan’s power seizing plan. He intended to use her to defeat Gao Ke.

I shouldn’t have lost my temper in the Gao Mansion that day.

Gao Ke looked towards Jiang Chen. It was his misbehavior that day that had given Gao Yan something on him, telling the latter he still cared a lot for his sister.

With as much as he knew about his sister, he was sure Gao Yue had been informed of that day’s conflict as well.

That was why she had said those things.

Gao Yan had used Gao Yue’s betrayal as an excuse to launch an attack.

Gao Yue claimed she hadn’t done anything wrong. Instead, it was the Gaos who didn’t have a good eye, since her son wasn’t any worse than the descendants of the Gaos’ direct line.

He had to admit that Gao Yue had seen the crucial point. If what she claimed was true, the Gaos wouldn’t be able to force her to do anything. In addition, they would have to make up for their previous mistake.

The thing was, was Jiang Chen really as great as she claimed?

Phoenix blood was what the Gaos valued most.

When Jiang Chen came to the Dragon Field for the first time, the Gaos had investigated him secretly. They had even collected his blood to test.

The results had told them that the phoenix blood in Jiang Chen’s body wasn’t even thin; he didn’t have any.

Once what Gao Yue had claimed was proven wrong, she would have no leeway to act.

Gao Ke would have to come forward by then.

If he tried to protect Gao Yue, he would be thought of as partial toward her. Gao Yan would grasp the chance to challenge him and dismiss him from the position of acting lord.

Damn it.

But he would definitely do it. He would never marry his sister to a place as remote as the association.

Gao Li calmed down gradually. He said sarcastically, “Fine. Let’s test him then.”

He threw a crystal to Jiang Chen.

“Let’s see how pure your son’s phoenix blood is.”

Gao Yue glanced at the crystal and said, “Son, this is a Spiritual Phoenix Stone. Grasp it tightly, and it’ll give off a strong or weak light according to the purity of your phoenix blood. That’s how we test phoenix blood.”

Jiang Chen noticed the crystal had many sharp corners. If he grasped it tightly, he would definitely bleed.

But this wasn’t his concern. His concern was whether it would expose him.

He wasn’t sure about the current situation yet. He didn’t know whether Gao Ke was a good or bad man, since he had found out the lord of the Gaos had been poisoned!

But he didn’t have a choice. If he didn’t do the test, Gao Li wouldn’t stop.

“Let’s start.”

When Jiang Chen was about to grasp the stone, Gao Yue said, “Uncle Li, what’s your standard? What’s the level you’ll accept?”

“Most of the disciples of the direct line have thick phoenix blood. Your son would have to have pure phoenix blood to surpass them,” said Gao Li.

Many people were shocked, because even if Gao Yue had a political marriage, her descendant wouldn’t necessarily have pure phoenix blood.

Gao Li had made it sound like he was making a concession, which was sickening.

“What if I have pure phoenix blood?” said Jiang Chen.

“Huh, then what your mother said will be proven right. What else do you want?” Gao Li said unhappily.

“You made my mother take poison and it turned out to be a mistake. You’re asking me what else I want?” Jiang Chen said coldly.

“You speak too much. Are you afraid?” Lily cursed.

Her words warned Gao Li. Jiang Chen probably wanted to use this as an excuse to avoid the test.

“If you have pure phoenix blood, you can get whatever you want!” Gao Li made an offer that Jiang Chen couldn’t refuse.

“Okay.”

So Jiang Chen grasped the crystal, hard.
