Dongfang Fu appeared to be choosing to submit his entire family to Chen Xuan, but in reality, this was a calculated move born of deep deliberation.
For over a hundred years, the Dongfang Family had served Master Yujing. During that century, Master Yujing had blessed the family with prosperity and protected them from severe harm, even throughout eras of war. Yet, Chen Xuan was clearly far more powerful than Master Yujing. If he were willing to extend his protection to them, the Dongfang Family would undoubtedly rise to even greater heights. Compared to that, the humiliation they suffered today was a small price to pay.
