266: He is not qualified yet.
G Ming was hailed as the greatest Prodigy of the Jiang Family in tens of thousands of years. At three years old, he had already gained the recognition of the hengyu divine furnace and possessed a divine body.
Everyone believed that he would certainly stand out from the succession struggle and ascend to the position of Head of the Jiang Family.
Yet, unexpectedly, he lost. Even the Old Ancestor did not say much, so they all believed that battle was completely legitimate...
"Sigh, what a pity. It would be better if she were not the daughter of G Ming. With such talent, our Jiang Family might have gained another Goddess. Should we go back and try to persuade her?"
"I advise you to better dispel this thought..." Jiang Yanxiao's voice suddenly became stern.
No matter how good Jiang Churan's talent is, she cannot compare to the current God Child of the Jiang Family!
And that woman who wants to put Jiang Churan to death is as close as mother and son with the God Child, deeply favored by the Clan Chief, and backed by a transcendent Holy Land. The waters here are too murky.
Even the Old Ancestor sees through it but does not point it out; how could they dare to intervene?
Just at this moment. With a creak. The massive palace doors slowly opened. Shen Nian stepped out with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent, black robes flowing, his brows exuding disdain.
"Emperor Shen." Shen Yang displayed a respectful expression and bowed slightly.
The next second. "??" "Hmm!!" Shen Yang was suddenly stunned, looking at the black-robed youth in front of him, feeling momentarily dazed.
Void Returning Fourth Layer already?? He forged one level of the dao palace in just these two days?
Isn't it said that the higher the grade of the dao palace, the harder it is to forge a level? Is this thirty-six layer immortal palace this easy to ascend? What kind of Prodigy is this!
For a moment, Shen Yang even doubted life itself. Previously, Shen Nian was able to ascend two levels of the dao palace because he was in the ancestral land, but now it is different!
"Hahaha, this must be the contemporary Head of the Shen Family, Emperor Shen, right? Truly a Dragon among men!" Jiang Yanxiao laughed heartily, then bowed: "Jiang Family's Jiang Yanxiao, greets Emperor Shen!"
At the same time, he was shocked in his heart. Damn! Void Returning Fourth Layer? Wasn't his cultivation Void Return Third Layer before! Could it be that he had been hiding his strength all along? Hiss...!
"Jiang Family's Jiang Yanji, greets Emperor Shen!" Jiang Yanji followed closely, bowing with a serious expression.
At the palace gate. After Shen Nian heard that these two came from the Jiang Family, he guessed what was going on and was not too surprised. In fact, he had thought of this point long ago; after Jiang Churan returned to the Upper Realm, how could the Jiang Family not notice? It was just that Shen Nian did not expect them to come so slowly...
"Emperor Shen, they want to take away Young Miss Churan..." Shen Yang suppressed the shock in his heart, then recounted the whole story via voice transmission, and then stood respectfully beside Shen Nian.
"hengyu pill?" Shen Nian was inevitably a bit surprised when he heard that the Jiang Family had brought this Body Refining divine object, famous throughout the Five Domains and regarded by the Jiang Family as an exclusive treasure.
The Jiang Family is famous in the Five Domains for being rigid and arrogant. They rarely interact with the outside world, yet the strength of the Jiang Family is unquestionable. His Old Ancestor once said that among the current Ancient Desolate Families, only the Jiang Family can contend with the Shen Family. Of course, the prerequisite is that the Old Ancestor does not make a move.
"Since they brought the hengyu pill, the news of the coming-of-age ceremony must have reached the Jiang Family. Are they trying not to offend me?" "However, this hengyu pill is of little use to me now," Shen Nian thought to himself.
If it were before, it might have been useful, but now his Chaos Body is formed, and the Chaos Indestructible Body Refining Method has reached Perfection. What he lacks now is the path to let his Chaos Body enter Minor Achievement, and for his Physical Body to merge with the Dao. Other Body Refining items are already useless.
Just at this moment. "Emperor Shen, Young Miss Churan is the long-lost daughter of our Jiang Family's Lord G Ming. We have been searching for Young Miss Churan's whereabouts all these years. Coming here today, besides specifically presenting a gift to Emperor Shen, we also wish to take Young Miss Churan back to the clan." Jiang Yanxiao smiled and spoke, his demeanor very humble.
Even though Shen Nian's Realm was not as high as his, and he was much, much younger than him, Shen Nian's status already made him dare not show the slightest disrespect. Especially after witnessing the talent of this youngest Head of the Shen Family with his own eyes...
"Hiss..." Jiang Yanxiao suddenly gasped in his heart. "How can this be!" "Why would the Void Returning Fourth Layer give me such a powerful sense of oppression!" "No!" "It's the oppression of Qi and blood!" "This... how is this possible!" "Could his Physical Body be stronger than mine?"
Once this thought arose, Jiang Yanxiao was stunned by his own idea, and the voice of Jiang Yanji sounded in his mind. "Big Brother, have you felt it? The Qi and blood pressure of this Head of the Shen Family is so strong..." "Big Brother, I think this Shen Nian doesn't seem easy to get along with, will there be a problem..." Jiang Yanji's voice fell, and he continued to ask via voice transmission.
"Rest assured!" "No one can refuse the temptation of the hengyu pill!" "Most importantly, this is not just a hengyu pill, but the goodwill from our Jiang Clan Chief!" Jiang Yanxiao replied confidently via voice transmission.
They considered the Jiang Family to be comparable to the Shen Family, on the same level. In the entire Human Race, only the Shen Family could make the Jiang Family elders treat them so politely, so they felt the Shen Family should respond in the same way.
"Emperor Shen, our Clan Chief also entrusted me with a message. If Emperor Shen is willing, you can visit the Jiang Family to discuss the grand plans of the Human Race..." Jiang Yanxiao smiled confidently. This was the message the Clan Chief asked him to convey personally.
The meaning inside is simple; the Jiang Clan Chief acknowledges you, Shen Nian, as having the same status as him, treating you as an equal, which is a gesture of goodwill.
However, Shen Nian just glanced at Jiang Yanxiao indifferently and said softly: "He is not qualified yet."
He had a rough understanding of Jiang Churan's situation in the Jiang Family. According to the System's introduction, G Ming's main wife wanted to put Jiang Churan to death, and Jiang Churan's mother died at her hands. Therefore, the existence of the Jiang Family should be an important enemy for Jiang Churan.
After the previous experience with the Fentian Holy Land, Shen Nian did not directly attack these two, fearing that destroying the original plot setting would mean he couldn't get the most generous rewards. Of course, he didn't have any good feelings for the Jiang Family either! Evading the war fifty thousand years ago had already made Shen Nian extremely disgusted!
Jiang Yanxiao watched as Shen Nian had already turned and left, leaving only a back view, and that sentence echoed in his ears: He is not qualified yet... How could it be... How dare he say that about our Jiang Clan Chief...
"Shen..." Jiang Yanji opened his mouth, dazed. He had just shouted one word when he was interrupted by Shen Yang.
"Emperor Shen has important matters, the two of you please return.. By the way, take this hengyu pill back. We appreciate Clan Chief Jiang's good intentions, but..."
At this time. In the palace. Jiang Churan had already heard the commotion outside and also heard that it was the Jiang Family members who came to find her. Although she looked indifferent on the face, she was still a bit flustered in her heart. This was the fear of the Jiang Family carved into her bones from when she was young, before her past life memories had awakened...
"Come here." "What are you standing there stupidly for?"
