490: Wu Yingtao

In the following days, a grand beauty pageant began in various major powers.

Only ten days remained; time was pressing.

They had to satisfy that person, otherwise, they wouldn't be able to bear his thunderous wrath.

Moreover, they also knew that this time, it was merely an excuse; if they truly gave him a reason, the next moment, an army would likely be at their gates.

In fact, in their hearts, they already wanted to surrender directly.

However, from the perspective of the Zhou Family and the Bloodline, even surrender would require some price.

All the high-ranking officials were worried that after surrendering, they themselves would become that price.

It was precisely because of this that the major powers were all indecisive.

And this beauty pageant might be an opportunity.

The high-ranking officials of the major powers were all selecting their own Bloodline, hoping to be favored by Qin Jiang.

This way, their safety could be guaranteed.

Their status might even be elevated.

Of course, many high-ranking officials were also frowning, all because there were no suitable candidates among their descendants.

But they still did their best, directly scouring the entire Xuan Yun Heaven for beautiful women.

At that time, adopting a goddaughter was also a connection; if that didn't work, even adopting a godmother wasn't out of the question.

In just ten days, the major powers and numerous strong cultivators all displayed their Divine Ability.

They brought one beautiful woman after another towards the direction of the immortal boat.

On the immortal boat, Qin Jiang looked down at the vast crowd below, all beautiful women.

Even Qin Jiang saw such a sight for the first time.

“Qin Jiang, you’re not going to take them all, are you?”

Beside him, a group of women also looked on and asked.

The women brought by the major powers, roughly estimated, numbered tens of thousands; if he took them all...

Qin Jiang's eyelids twitched, and he shook his head:

“Of course not!”

He certainly couldn't handle so many people. Of course, more importantly, ninety-nine percent of them had not yet met his desired standards.

But it had to be said, there were indeed some exceptionally beautiful women; he just didn't know if there would be any Luck heroines among them.

Qin Jiang's gaze swept over them one by one.

He roughly selected a few, and then stepped out of the immortal boat, appearing before everyone.

Liu Shuwan and An Xihe also followed by his side.

Seeing Qin Jiang, the strong cultivators of the major powers all respectfully saluted, their posture extremely low.

The group of women also looked over.

Before this, they had all been instructed that this person was the Dominator of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths; as long as they could be favored by him, they would soar like a Phoenix.

Thus, before Qin Jiang, many women twisted their bodies, attempting to attract Qin Jiang's attention.

It had to be said, it was indeed quite beautiful.

Qin Jiang admired them for a while, then reached out and pointed at a few:

“They stay, the rest can go back.”

As his words fell, the faces of the unselected women stiffened.

However, they dared not say much. Those who could be brought here, besides their beauty, also knew their place and wouldn't make a fuss.

The group of women left regretfully.

Only thirteen remained.

They were the thirteen most outstanding among all the women, kept by Qin Jiang.

His discerning eye was beyond reproach.

Qin Jiang looked at them; they were all charming and alluring, every movement graceful and composed, except for one...

When Qin Jiang looked at her, her gaze was somewhat evasive.

Qin Jiang raised an eyebrow, walked forward, and as soon as he extended his hand, the other party instinctively dodged.

“Are you afraid of me?”

Qin Jiang asked with a smile.

The other party was a bit nervous, her small hands clasped together, shaking her head repeatedly:

“No.”

“Hehe, what's your name?”

“Yingtao.”

“Sounds delicious.”

Qin Jiang teased.

Yingtao lowered her head, her pretty face slightly flushed, her heart even more nervous.

Seeing her appearance, Qin Jiang continued, saying:

“Will you follow me from now on, alright?”

Actually, at first, Qin Jiang didn't have much expectation.

It was just a shot in the dark, hoping to hit something.

Unexpectedly, he really did come across one; this little girl was a Luck heroine.

The System had already given a prompt, but he didn't have time to check it yet.

Hearing Qin Jiang's words, Yingtao was a bit flustered. The reason she came was, on one hand, her Family's request, and on the other hand, because as long as she came, the Family would give her some resources.

But she never thought that among so many people, she would be chosen.

She was a Wu Family member, but just an insignificant figure from a branch line.

She also had an elder brother who had poor talent since childhood, but recently, he suddenly seemed like a different person, mature and steady, and his Cultivation speed had advanced by leaps and bounds.

However, he often worried about resources.

Actually, as long as one had good talent, the Family would focus on nurturing them. However, her brother had always hidden himself, preferring to be seen as a good-for-nothing.

He said that only by hiding his strength could he better protect himself.

Although she didn't understand, Yingtao still supported her brother. As for the resource issue...

She shared some of her Cultivation resources with her brother. A few days ago, her Family found her and asked her to participate in a beauty pageant. Originally, she was quite reluctant.

But the Family said that no matter whether she was chosen or not, they would give her some Cultivation resources.

Moreover, the amount was quite substantial.

So, after discussing with her brother, Yingtao agreed.

With tens of thousands of women, she didn't believe she could be chosen.

But now...

She looked at Qin Jiang timidly. Before this, she had asked her brother about him.

This person was not a good person, after all.

“I...

Can I refuse?”

Wu Yingtao whispered.

Not far away, the strong cultivator of the Wu Family, who had been grinning, suddenly turned pale upon hearing this and looked nervously at Wu Yingtao.

My little ancestor, please don't anger him.

The Wu Family couldn't bear it.

Hearing this, Qin Jiang smiled slightly, shook his head, and said:

“No.”

“...”

Wu Yingtao was a bit helpless. She lowered her head slightly, her peripheral vision on Qin Jiang, muttering to herself, this handsome man wasn't as bad as the rumors said.

But, did she really have to follow him?

While she was hesitating, Qin Jiang directly reached out and grabbed her small hand.

Wu Yingtao was slightly startled.

But her small hand was held tightly, unable to break free, and her pretty face flushed slightly.

A hint of panic vaguely appeared in her beautiful eyes.

Qin Jiang exerted a little force, directly pulling Wu Yingtao to his side, then looked at the strong cultivators of the major powers and said:

“I’ll be taking this one.”

“Lord/Master of the realm, please take her. She is a member of our Wu Family and has admired Lord/Master of the realm for a long time. She is just a bit shy, and we hope Lord/Master of the realm will not mind.”

The strong cultivator of the Wu Family quickly spoke.

Qin Jiang smiled and nodded, holding Wu Yingtao's small hand, then looked at the remaining women.

Unfortunately, there were no more Luck heroines.
