As Yang Chen made his way back to the academy after meeting with Han Zhenya, a significant event was unfolding at the Zhu family manor.
The twelve elders of the Zhu family had invited Zhu Shenyi, the family matriarch, to a dinner. In the lavish dining hall, the elders sat with scheming expressions. Previously, the council had planned to marry Zhu Jia to the son of the Lionheart Guild, the top guild in China.
Before entering the dungeon, Zhu Jia's talent was considered average compared to her peers, and many family members thought she was unfit to lead the Zhu family. However, what they didn't anticipate was Zhu Jia returning from the dungeon as two people.
Logically, the council should have been celebrating the fact that Zhu Jia, a child of the Zhu family, survived a C-rank dungeon and awakened her talents.
Yet, this group of elders now wanted Xie Qingyi, Zhu Shenyi's other daughter, to marry the eldest son of the Wang clan, the number one clan in China.
