49: Chapter 49 Sure enough, he is my son!
"Come, little brother Nianyang, cheers!" Jiang Ruoxi raised her cup.
Jiang Nianyang quickly raised his cup to clink glasses with her.
Seeing this, Xie Wushang smiled freely and casually. Not wanting to ruin his daughter's mood, he raised his wine cup, smelled the fragrant wine, and drank it all in one gulp.
Jiang Ruoxi continued to fill both of their cups.
After three rounds of drinks, Jiang Ruoxi said cheerfully,
"Today is truly a good day. Not only have I reunited with Daddy, but I've also met a Genius like little brother Nianyang."
"With little brother Nianyang's natural talent, your daddy certainly cannot be an ordinary person either; he shouldn't be weaker than my daddy."
"Do you really not know who your daddy is?" The little girl looked curious.
There might be many Jiang Clan Saint Bodies.
But for one to give birth to a Prodigy like Jiang Nianyang, it must mostly be a Divine Body.
Because of this, wanting to find Jiang Nianyang's daddy wouldn't be difficult.
At the very least, he would be a Quasi-Emperor.
Jiang Ruoxi felt curious in her heart.
"I wonder which other Genius of the Jiang Clan could, just like my daddy, give birth to such a monstrous proud son of heaven."
Jiang Ruoxi thought to herself.
She narrowed her eyes, her brows curving into crescents, and looked curiously at Jiang Nianyang.
"Sister Ruoxi, I'm not lying to you either; I truly don't know who my daddy is." Jiang Nianyang finished sipping the remaining wine with lingering flavor, then looked at Jiang Ruoxi with a hint of intoxication and said. With the divine wine in his belly, he felt even closer to the little girl before him.
"You don't know who your daddy is?" Jiang Ruoxi became even more curious.
"Didn't your mother tell you?" she asked.
As she spoke, she poured wine for Jiang Nianyang and Xie Wushang again.
"Your mother must know who your father is, and at the very least, there should be a portrait," Xie Wushang said, taking a sip of wine.
"To be honest... my mother doesn't know what my daddy looks like either," Jiang Nianyang said after picking up his wine cup and taking a sip.
"This..." Jiang Ruoxi looked surprised and glanced at her own daddy.
"That shouldn't be!" Xie Wushang touched his chin and pondered inwardly, "Back then, I did meet those nine Saintesses!"
Holding his wine cup, Jiang Nianyang motioned for Jiang Ruoxi to pour more wine.
Jiang Ruoxi poured the wine, waiting with a look of anticipation for Jiang Nianyang to continue.
Jiang Nianyang took a sip of wine and said, "Eight years ago... my mother was in the Disaster Battlefield... contending with eight proud daughters of heaven for the undying nine-leaf flower... Unexpectedly, the Disaster King, was poisoned by evil venom, and almost perished. Fortunately, my daddy descended from the heavens and saved her..."
"At that time, my mother's mind was hazy, so she didn't remember what daddy looked like."
"But it doesn't matter. Hmph, just a scumbag who simply patted his buttocks and left?"
"Did he not know to leave his name for my mother? He caused me to be cursed as a bastard by others."
At first, Jiang Nianyang still wore a look of reminiscence.
But by the end, his face was full of resentment and indignation.
"Disaster Battlefield... undying nine-leaf flower..." Hearing the preceding words, Xie Wushang's heart skipped a beat.
"Sure enough... he is my son!"
When Jiang Nianyang mentioned the nine Saintesses of the Disaster Battlefield and the undying nine-leaf flower, Xie Wushang could almost be certain.
The proud son of heaven before him was none other than his own son.
"I have another child?" He was both excited and couldn't help taking a deep breath.
He had thought that the three siblings, including Ji Ruoxi and Ji Yuanyao, were already a huge surprise.
But looking at it now...
It seemed the trouble he caused back then was a bit too big.
He went from being pleasantly surprised to feeling guilty...
He had no idea how many children he actually had.
What kind of attitude would they hold towards him?
Upon hearing the subsequent words, Xie Wushang's hand holding the wine cup trembled, spilling some wine.
"I've been wronged... Clearly, when I woke up, they had all left!" Xie Wushang blinked his eyes and looked at Jiang Nianyang.
He desperately wanted to tell the latter the truth.
Yet he didn't know how to bring it up.
"Even if I told him the truth, Nianyang probably wouldn't believe me. After all, this was what his mother said."
Xie Wushang sighed.
One was the deeply rooted image of a scumbag in his heart.
The other was the mother who raised him with her own hands.
Anyone would believe their own mother's words.
"I can only take it step by step," Xie Wushang thought to himself.
"Disaster Battlefield..." Meanwhile, Jiang Ruoxi, who had just been jumping for joy and listening to gossip, also felt her heart skip a beat.
Wine splashed out from the wine flagon in her hand.
"undying nine-leaf flower... Wasn't my mother poisoned while contending with someone for this flower, and then saved by daddy?"
Jiang Ruoxi's thoughts surged. She looked at Jiang Nianyang, then at Xie Wushang.
"Daddy... lost his composure... Could it be that brother Nianyang is Daddy's son? Is he my older brother?" Jiang Ruoxi covered her mouth.
Her eyes widened.
"It seems I've discovered a heaven-shaking secret..."
She blinked her jewel-like eyes, looking at Daddy and then at Jiang Nianyang.
"Sigh, enough about my daddy. Being able to meet you two this time is also a great joy in life. In the future, we will step onto the Emperor's Road together, witness that brilliant Dao, and conquer this contentious world... On that Emperor's Road, there will surely be both our names." Jiang Nianyang shook his head, not wanting to talk more about those unhappy matters, and immediately raised his cup toward Xie Wushang and Jiang Ruoxi.
"Cheers..."
Finished speaking, Jiang Nianyang drank it all in one gulp.
"This little fellow... at such a young age, he has already resolved to conquer this contentious world." Xie Wushang's eyes narrowed with a hint of doting fondness as he looked at Jiang Nianyang. His eyes were completely filled with satisfaction, and he thought to himself, "As expected of my son! Destined to be extraordinary from birth!"
"Cheers..." While pondering inwardly, Xie Wushang also raised his cup and drank with Jiang Nianyang in one gulp.
Jiang Ruoxi continued pouring wine. The small wine flagon had a spatial dimension inside, containing quite a lot of divine wine.
Drinking until midnight, Jiang Nianyang was already showing signs of intoxication. He held out his wine goblet toward Jiang Ruoxi, waiting for her to pour more wine.
"You guys are so nice. Meeting for the first time and treating me to wine... even better than my maternal grandfather," Jiang Nianyang said with intoxication.
"Hehe, Ruoxi, from now on, you are my younger sister. If anyone bullies you, your older brother will be the first to object."
"Uncle Wushang... you are also very good... handsome and possessing a Divine Body... It's a pity you are older than me; otherwise, I would have sworn brotherhood with you."
As he spoke, Jiang Ruoxi filled another cup for him, which he then drank in one gulp.
Within his Sea of Consciousness space,
the spirit of tianyang treasure mirror muttered.
"Nianyang has always been reticent and tight-lipped... How did he become a chatterbox today? Could he be intentionally scamming wine to drink?"
He deeply suspected that this disciple was nagging so much precisely to divert Jiang Ruoxi's attention so that she wouldn't know how many cups of wine he had actually drunk. Otherwise, if he spoke less and Jiang Ruoxi withdrew her attention, wouldn't she notice that the wine had already been drunk dry?
Seeing Jiang Nianyang's hazy, drunk appearance with his slightly flushed little face, Xie Wushang felt his heart melting from cuteness.
But upon hearing that the latter wanted to swear brotherhood with him, his heart skipped a beat.
"Swear brotherhood!?... If your mother finds out, I wonder if she'll beat you or beat me?"
Xie Wushang felt that just thinking about that scene made him want to go crazy.
"Tsk tsk, little brother Nianyang is truly interesting; he actually wants to swear brotherhood with Daddy." Jiang Ruoxi covered her mouth and smiled. "Oh well, judging by Daddy's appearance, he doesn't seem to want to expose his identity either. I'll just pretend I know nothing." She felt it was also quite interesting.
