149: Three daughters of the imperial clan
Inside the palace, Su Luli was already pressed to the ground by this wave of Emperors Might, unable to move.
However, her delicate and beautiful face was filled with ecstasy and adoration.
"Revered Master has attained the Emperor status!"
It was unknown how much time had passed before that violent Emperors Might slowly receded, completely submerging into Liu Shenyin's body.
She slowly opened her eyes, and within her beautiful pupils, it seemed as if the sun, moon, and stars were revolving.
Every gesture of hers carried a supreme majesty.
She had succeeded.
By using an incomplete Dao fruit to achieve Alternative Dao Attainment, she had become a brand-new female Emperor.
Even if it was only a Pseudo-Emperor.
"Many thanks to my husband for making this possible." Liu Shenyin stood up and bowed gracefully to Jiang Yuan.
This time, her posture was incredibly natural, and the way she called him "husband" was also completely willing.
It was a heartfelt surrender and trust that came after completely giving her heart to him.
Jiang Yuan smiled and helped her up, pulling her into his embrace.
Feeling that Emperors Might on her body that was both cold and carried a hint of warmth, he nodded with satisfaction.
"From now on, you are my, Jiang Yuan's, first Dao-protecting female Emperor."
"The Zither Empress, Liu Shenyin."
Liu Shenyin's delicate body trembled. She did not resist, but obediently closed her eyes, responding clumsily.
A moving flush appeared on her face.
That cold Imperial majesty was softened by this.
"Husband, Lüli is still here..."
She looked at the disciple who had just climbed up from the ground, feeling a bit distressed and embarrassed.
"Oh, I almost forgot. It's fine, you'll get used to it next time."
Su Luli stood up, looking at the scene before her of a talented man and a beautiful woman, appearing like a match made in heaven.
In her heart, she was happy for her Revered Master, but there was also a trace of loss that even she herself hadn't noticed.
The Imperial Son seemed to really only see her as an obedient and sensible little girl.
However, this was fine too.
As long as her Revered Master could get what she wished for and stand firm in this Emperors Son Palace, she would be content.
Jiang Yuan observed the change in expression in the girl's eyes.
Knowing her thoughts, he chuckled inwardly.
With a flick of his finger, a bottle of Medicinal Pill flew in front of Su Luli.
"You girl, you performed well today. This is a reward for you."
Su Luli took the jade bottle and probed it with her Divine Thought, immediately exclaiming in surprise.
"A... Spirit Ascension Pill?!"
She had taken this before.
Her Revered Master became the Dao Companion of the Emperors Son Jiang precisely for this item, which could allow her to undergo a transformation.
To think she had obtained another one so easily?
The generosity of the Imperial Son was truly too great!
"Thank... thank you, Imperial Son, for the reward!"
Su Luli was so excited that her pretty face turned red, and she bowed deeply to Jiang Yuan.
"It won't be too late to thank me when you have achieved a Sacred Body."
His implication was that this Medicinal Pill was a reward for Su Luli herself.
Rather than having her send it back to the Heavenly Sound Sect.
On the other hand, Jiang Yuan was very curious; Su Luli had already taken a Spirit Ascension Pill to improve from a Dao Body to a God Body, so would taking another one allow her to further improve to a Sacred Body?
If not, it didn't matter.
He would just consider it a wasted Spirit Ascension Pill.
He could just earn it back from Su Luli later.
This girl was so sensible that she should understand the good intentions of This Imperial Son.
Jiang Yuan's gaze fell back onto Liu Shenyin: "Shenyin, you and I are husband and wife; we should have a good talk about how the path should be walked after this Imperial attainment."
Upon hearing this, Liu Shenyin's cheeks grew even hotter, and she cast a reproachful glance at him.
That charm was enough to make any man in the world go crazy for her.
"Everything is up to my husband."
Her voice was as light as a mosquito, but it carried a magnetic quality unique to an Emperor, plucking at his heartstrings.
And just as Su Luli, with her slightly flushed face, was preparing to take her leave.
A report came from outside the palace, interrupting the atmosphere.
"Reporting to the Imperial Son, the Clan Heads of the Xiao Family and the Gu Family, accompanied by their Imperial Daughters, are requesting an audience outside the palace."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuan raised his eyebrows in slight surprise.
The Xiao Family and the Gu Family?
These two Immortal Imperial Clans had actually come too.
He loosened his hold on Liu Shenyin, who still had a lingering flush on her face and gave him a reproachful glance with eyes flowing with Emperors Might.
Immediately, she quickly suppressed all the mannerisms of a young woman and restored the coldness and majesty befitting the Zither Empress.
She smoothed her slightly disheveled palace attire, sat upright on the clouds, and an invisible aura dispersed.
Su Luli retreated obediently behind her Revered Master, thinking to herself that it was a pity.
However, on second thought, did this count as having infiltrated the inner circle?
There would be plenty of opportunities in the future.
It was just that the Imperial Daughters of the two great Imperial Clans made her feel a little concerned.
"Let them in."
Jiang Yuan spoke lazily and sat back down on the main seat.
Not long after, four figures entered together.
At the head were a man and a woman, and behind them, each followed a young girl.
An information panel appeared before his eyes.
Name: Xiao Lian, Rating: 96, Identity: Xiao Family Clan Head, Physique: Still Water Duo Hua Body (God Body), Data: 175cm, 104/61/100, D+, Times: 0.
Name: Xiao Qingyun, Rating: 92, Identity: Xiao Family Imperial Daughter, Physique: Supreme Sword Body (God Body), Data: 170cm, 95/61/94, B+, Times: 0.
Name: Gu Waner, Rating: 94, Identity: Gu Family Imperial Daughter, Physique: Pale Ancient Tyrant Body (God Body), Data: 155cm, 95/61/92, E, Times: 0.
As expected of the women of the Imperial Clans.
The ratings were all above 90.
However, this Xiao Lian...
Jiang Yuan didn't have much impression of her.
But he quickly reacted.
The current Xiao Family Clan Head, that is, the beautiful woman in white, it seemed her name was this at the beginning.
It was only later, after being detected to possess the Still Water Duo Hua Body.
That she changed her name accordingly.
Later, she went against the current step by step.
Achieving the status of Quasi-Emperor and sitting in the position of the Xiao Family Clan Head.
She never married in her life, considering everything for the Xiao Family.
It must be said that her legendary experience ranked among the best in the Emperor Immortal Great World and was the idol of countless female cultivators.
"Greetings, Your Highness the Imperial Son, and greetings, Zither Empress."
Xiao Zhishui and Gu Tianxiong bowed together to Jiang Yuan, keeping a very low profile.
"You two elders are too polite."
Jiang Yuan stood up and cupped his hands to the two, his attitude neither humble nor arrogant.
Xiao Zhishui's gaze turned to the person behind her, and she said in a deep voice:
"Qingyun, why don't you greet your brother Jiang Yuan yet."
"Qingyun greets Emperors Son Jiang."
Just as Jiang Yuan was about to answer, a crisp voice that carried a bit of familiarity sounded.
"Waner greets brother Jiang!"
The young girl from the Gu Family named Gu Waner actually bypassed her elders, ran a few steps to Jiang Yuan, lifted her small face, and bowed with a smile.
This sudden scene surprised everyone present.
Xiao Zhishui's eyelids twitched, and she inwardly cursed the girl for not knowing the rules.
Gu Tianxiong laughed secretly, very satisfied with his descendant's performance.
He cast a teasing look at Xiao Zhishui and the Xiao Family Imperial Daughter.
A cold Fairy?
It wasn't marketable anymore.
The Jiang Family Imperial Son wouldn't take a fancy to these.
"You girl, you are quite familiar."
Jiang Yuan was amused by her, reached out, and pinched her cheeks, which still had a bit of baby fat, without hesitation.
Gu Waner didn't dodge, but instead took the opportunity to hug Jiang Yuan's arm and acted like a spoiled child:
"Brother Jiang, I grew up listening to your stories and have long wanted to see you. Mother said you cherish your own people the most, so you won't blame me, right?"
"Your mother knows me quite well."
He looked at this petite girl with a playful gaze.
Don't look at how young she is; she has quite a lot of schemes.
He was just a Mortal before Awakening his Sacred Body.
How could he be talked about often?
But since people were flattering him like this.
Exposing her would be boring.
As for Xiao Qingyun, who remained silent.
Jiang Yuan only glanced at her once at the beginning.
After some pleasantries, Xiao Zhishui and Gu Tianxiong explained their purpose.
It was nothing more than responding to the Jiang Family's call, thanking the Jiang Family for this opportunity to participate in the expedition together, and by the way, coming to pay respects to the Zither Empress, and letting their juniors come out to gain some experience and get to know some outstanding people.
Their main purpose today was still to bring their juniors to get familiar.
Although Xiao Zhishui was very dissatisfied with Xiao Qingyun's attitude, she couldn't force the other party, so she could only sigh helplessly.
The ship of the new era; she didn't know if their Xiao Family had a chance to catch up.
