20: Mother and Daughter Flowers in the Little World of the Woods
The Jiang Family Deliberation Hall.
By the time Jiang Yuan arrived, the hall was already full of people.
Eldest Uncle Jiang Zhan sat in the main seat, and below him were over a dozen core elders of the Family.
"Yuaner is here, quick, sit down!"
As soon as Jiang Shouzhuo saw Jiang Yuan, he stood up from his seat and personally pulled Jiang Yuan to the seat next to Jiang Zhan to sit down.
That position was one that previously only the Young Lord of the Family—the future heir to the Family Head—could occupy.
Although Jiang Yuan was an Immortal Emperor's son, he was not the Young Lord.
Even though the Jiang Family doted on him, they would not place a Mortal who could not Cultivate in that seat.
But now... if he didn't have the qualifications, who would?
"Ahem, Third Uncle, you are too polite."
Although he said that, Jiang Yuan was not polite at all and plopped himself right into the Young Lord's seat.
"What is this? It is you, Yuaner, who works hard to continue the Jiang Family line."
"Indeed," another elder chimed in. "Yuaner, how was your rest last night? Is that girl Qingxue serving you well? If you are not used to her, tell Sixth Uncle, and I will find you a few more."
Jiang Yuan: "..."
Damn, the way they said that made it sound like Bai Qingxue was some commodity that could be returned or exchanged at will.
She was a great beauty with a score of 98, after all.
"It's fine, it's fine." Jiang Yuan coughed twice and changed the subject. "Eldest Uncle, Xiao Cui said you found new targets for me?"
Hearing this, the eyes of all the elders lit up.
Look! Look!
What level of consciousness! What a sense of responsibility!
On the second day of his marriage, he was already thinking about the great cause of expanding the Family's lineage!
He is truly the Qilin Child of our Jiang Family!
"Hahaha, do not be anxious, Yuaner."
Jiang Zhan was also all smiles. With a wave of his hand, a massive star map instantly unfolded in the center of the hall.
On the star map, countless points of light flickered, each representing a world.
The largest and brightest one was the Emperor Immortal Great World where they were located.
Surrounding the Emperor Immortal Great World were thousands of light points of varying sizes; those were the many Middle Thousand Worlds and Minor Thousand Worlds attached to the Emperor Immortal Great World.
"Yuaner, with the Old Ancestor's consent, the Family intelligence network is now operating at full capacity, expanding the search scope from the Emperor Immortal Great World to the thirty thousand Small Worlds and eight hundred Middle Thousand Worlds under our control."
"Of course, due to time constraints, we haven't covered everything yet, so we started searching from the few hundred worlds closest to the Jiang Family's Ascension Platform."
Jiang Zhan pointed to the star map, his tone filled with a hint of pride. "Take a look first. These are the five hundred women we deduced based on the scoring data you previously provided, who should all be 90 points or higher."
As he spoke, documents filled with text and images appeared in the Void Realm before Jiang Yuan like snowflakes.
【Name: Zhao Ya'er】
【Score: 92】
【Identity: Tianfeng Small World, Seventh Princess of the Great Zhao Imperial Dynasty】
【Physique: Profound Water Treasure Physique】
...
【Name: Mu Qingqing】
【Score: 90】
【Identity: Qingmu Small World, Saintess of the Qingyun Sect】
【Physique: Wood Spirit Physique】
...
Jiang Yuan was dazzled.
It had to be said, the Family's efficiency was truly high.
How long had it been, and they had already combed through so many Small Worlds.
Of course, not every woman reached 90 points; fewer than one-tenth truly exceeded 90 points,
and their Physiques were generally not high, mostly Treasure Physiques, Spirit Physiques, and the like.
Compared to Bai Qingxue's Dao Body, they were more than a tier lower.
"Yuaner, these are the candidates we initially screened. We believe the first step of the open conspiracy plan should ideally start in these Small Worlds."
An elder analyzed, "Firstly, we can easily manipulate the powers in the Small Worlds without any resistance. Secondly, the sudden birth of a Divine Body or even a Saint Body in a barren Small World would have an impact far more shocking than in the Emperor Immortal Great World, better demonstrating our Jiang Family's heaven-defying capabilities."
"Exactly. Once the news spreads, it will inevitably drive all factions into a frenzy. The promotional effect will be absolutely maxed out!"
Jiang Yuan nodded, feeling that what the elders said made a lot of sense.
A villager becoming rich overnight is much more eye-catching than a city dweller doubling their assets.
As he flipped through them, his gaze soon locked onto one of the files.
【Name: Qin Yuebai】
【Score: 94】
【Identity: Forest Realm, Master of Misty Rain Tower】
【Physique: Twin Lotus Body (Dao Body)】
【Data: 178cm, 116 / 61 / 98】

【Weakness: Currently not conquered, cannot view.】
94 points?
A Small World can produce such a Prodigy?
Jiang Yuan felt a surge of heat in his heart.
This score was already quite high!
And these body stats... tsk tsk, she was definitely a heavyweight contender.
He quickly pulled up more detailed information about her.
Qin Yuebai, Master of the Forest Realm's Misty Rain Tower, Peak of the 5th Realm Law Domain Realm, one of the nine 'deities' of the Forest Realm.
Not only that, but the file also mentioned that she had a blood-related daughter.
"She has a Dao Companion?"
Jiang Yuan frowned slightly; if that were the case, the System shouldn't have given such a high score.
Soon, he knew why.
【Name: Qin Wanwan】
【Score: 92】
【Identity: Canglan Realm, Young Lord of Misty Rain Tower】
【Physique: Twin Lotus Body (Dao Body) (Split Body)】
【Data: 145cm, 66 / 55 / 86】
【A+】
【Times: 0】
【Weakness: Currently not conquered, cannot view.】
Qin Wanwan—a Dao Body individual split from Qin Yuebai after she overspent the power of the 'Twin Lotus Body' while trying to break through to the 6th Realm and failing.
So, in a sense, Qin Wanwan was indeed considered Qin Yuebai's daughter!
To put it simply,
A mother and daughter pair?!
Damn!
This was his first time knowing the 'Twin Lotus Body' could be played like this!
No wonder the System gave such a high score.
If it were him, he would absolutely not let this go!
"It's them!" Jiang Yuan slapped his thigh and made his decision on the spot.
Children make choices; as an Immortal Emperor's son, I want them all!
"Hahaha, I knew you would like it, Yuaner. Honestly, we didn't expect the Twin Lotus Body to undergo such changes."
Jiang Shouzhuo laughed out loud. He saw Jiang Yuan staring at the intelligence on this mother-daughter pair for so long and knew he was excited.
"However..." Jiang Zhan's brows furrowed slightly. "Intelligence indicates that the situation of this mother and daughter seems to be not very good."
