22: A luxurious bodyguard team capable of destroying the Middle Thousand Worlds, set off!
Jiang Yi was from a collateral branch of the Jiang Family, located in a Middle Thousand World under the Jiang Family's jurisdiction.
His branch was merely the lowest-ranking lineage in that world, with a Bloodline so thin it was almost negligible.
Although he was born with a Sword Bone, due to his humble origins and lack of resources, he was bullied and ostracized by the direct descendants of his clan, and even coveted by clansmen who brutally dug out his bone.
Just as he was about to perish, it was a glance from His Highness the Imperial Son that pulled him out of the mire and brought him to the Emperor Immortal Great World.
People were ordered to give him Medicinal Pills to recover from his injuries, and afterwards, divine treasures were generously bestowed upon him, even refining his Sword Bone, defying fate to change his destiny, and helping him achieve the legendary Chaos Sword Body!
"Patriarch, the Imperial Son has given me a new lease on life. Now that the Imperial Son has a need, Jiang Yi will not hesitate to die for him!"
Jiang Yi's attitude was very firm.
"Good!"
Before Jiang Zhan could speak, the Sixth Ancestor's booming voice directly echoed in everyone's minds.
"As expected of a good son of my Jiang Family, knowing how to repay kindness! Responsible!"
"Little Yi'zi is good, let him go with Yuaner! It'll also be a good opportunity to teach Yuaner how to fight opponents in the same Realm."
Yes, Jiang Yi, who possessed a natural Sword Bone comparable to a Dao Body, only had a cultivation of Realm 2 when he was brought up.
However, because the Chaos Sword Body was truly Heaven-Defying, he accumulated his cultivation to the Peak of Realm 3 in just a few days.
Of course, this was also related to the Jiang Family's generous provision of resources.
"But Old Ancestor, Jiang Yi has only just awakened his Sacred Body, and his Realm is not yet stable..."
"What's there to fear? How can one see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain? Let him go to a Small World with Yuaner for some tempering. It's perfect to practice on that Blood Fiend Sect and stabilize his Chaos Sword Dao!"
The Sixth Ancestor spoke with an indifferent tone.
"Moreover, one Jiang Yi is not enough!"
The Sixth Ancestor's voice rang out again.
"Little Zhan'zi, listen carefully, when Yuaner goes to the Lower Realm this time, safety is the top priority, and the display must also be grand enough to not tarnish the reputation of my Jiang Family!"
"Pass on my order, let that old fellow Jiang Fusheng be Yuaner's steward."
"Then, from the Family guard squad, dispatch ten Realm 13 cultivators as personal bodyguards, and one hundred half-step Realm 11 cultivators. Do you have time... forget it, Quasi-Emperors cannot enter a Small World. Why do you Cultivate so strongly?"
Jiang Zhan: "..."
Sixth Ancestor, I am also of your lineage.
"Never mind, never mind. Find a few Quasi-Emperors and have them hide along the way, just don't go in. Also, give Yuaner my world-breaking divine ark. That thing is fast; it can travel from the Emperor Immortal Great World to that Forest Realm within a day!"
"Oh, and also bring this replica of my emperor slaying sword's replica. Ultimate Imperial Weapons cannot enter a Small World, but a Sacred Artifact that is a half-step quasi-emperor weapon should be enough to protect Yuaner."
The Sixth Ancestor issued a series of commands in one breath, leaving everyone in the main hall dumbfounded yet also feeling it was perfectly reasonable.
If not for the fact that a Small World could only withstand a Saint Realm cultivator at most,
and even then, only a Saint Realm cultivator carrying restricted secret treasures, perhaps even Quasi-Emperors would clear the way and protect Jiang Yuan.
This was the foundation of an Imperial Son's Family.
However, this made even Jiang Yuan feel it was a bit exaggerated.
Mobilizing combat power sufficient to annihilate ten average Middle Thousand Worlds,
to go to a Small World where the highest combat power was only Realm 6, to pursue a mother and daughter?
"Sixth Grandfather... this... isn't this a bit too exaggerated?" Jiang Yuan himself felt a little ashamed hearing it.
"Exaggerated my ass!"
The Sixth Ancestor snorted,
"You are now the apple of our Jiang Family's eye. Your safety is more important than the heavens. Let alone just going to a Small World, even if you wanted to stroll through a Life Forbidden Zone, I, your grandfather, would gather a set of Ultimate Imperial Weapons for you to drive there!"
Jiang Yuan: "..."
Alright, as long as you, old man, are happy.
"Do as the Sixth Ancestor says!" Jiang Zhan made the final decision.
With the Old Ancestor speaking, he naturally had no further objections.
Soon, a seduction escort team, arguably the most luxurious in history, was assembled.
Steward: Jiang Fusheng, a Realm 13 Great Saint Realm Peak Saint King expert.
Bodyguards: Ten unnamed Great Saint Realm guards.
Bodyguards' Bodyguards: One hundred Realm 10 World Realm cultivators who had comprehended rules.
Sword Attendant: Jiang Yi, with the Chaos Sword Body.
Mount: world-breaking divine ark, an Ultimate Imperial Weapon-grade flying ship.
Weapon: Sacred Artifact, emperor slaying sword (Replica) (Replica).
Jiang Yuan looked at the lineup before him and nodded with satisfaction.
Hmm, this configuration matches my status as a Jiang Family Imperial Son.
"Yuaner, be careful in the Lower Realm."
Jiang Zhan walked up to Jiang Yuan, patted his shoulder, and solemnly instructed,
"Remember, your mission is to bring that mother and daughter back safely. As for other matters, just let Fusheng and the others handle them. You absolutely must not personally take action, understand?"
He was still worried about Jiang Yuan's safety.
"Understood, Eldest Uncle."
Jiang Yuan agreed verbally, but in his heart, he thought, I finally have cultivation and am allowed to go out. If I don't personally show off a bit, what's the difference from traveling in fine clothes at night? (meaning: doing something impressive without anyone knowing)
That Blood Fiend Sect Sect Master must be personally dealt with by me!
...Emperors Son Palace.
Before leaving, Jiang Yuan specifically went to say hello to Bai Qingxue.
At this moment, she was fully dressed, having returned to her cold and divine goddess appearance.
However, the trace of charm between her brows and the lingering spring in the corner of her eyes,
still indicated her experiences from last night.
Seeing Jiang Yuan return, her eyes held a complex expression.
"Husband," she called softly.
This address of 'husband' sounded much more natural than before.
"Wife, I'm going out for a trip." Jiang Yuan walked up to her and naturally embraced her.
Bai Qingxue's body stiffened for a moment, but quickly relaxed, allowing him to hold her.
"Where are you going?"
"To a Small World called Forest Realm, to handle some matters."
Jiang Yuan whispered in her ear, "And by the way... to find you a sister to bring back."
He didn't hide anything; such a matter couldn't be hidden and there was no need to hide it.
Bai Qingxue nodded calmly, without the slightest surprise.
She had long known that an Imperial Son like Jiang Yuan could not possibly have only one woman.
Especially after she learned how Heaven-Defying Jiang Yuan's Physique was, she understood even more.
This man's future was destined to involve countless women, to help him spread his lineage.
And she didn't mind.
The White Tiger Clan, by nature, revered strength. A strong man could have multiple women,
Conversely, a strong woman could naturally have three thousand male concubines.
What was the difference?
She nodded and softly said, "Husband... be careful in everything."
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon." Jiang Yuan looked at her, and after listening to Bai Qingxue, he lightly kissed her on the lips... Outside the Jiang Family territory, a black divine ark, entirely crafted from unknown divine gold,
Its shape resembling a giant sword, quietly hovered in the Void Realm.
Upon the divine ark, Great Dao runes flowed, emanating a terrifying aura capable of tearing through all ages.
It was precisely the Sixth Ancestor's mount, the world-breaking divine ark.
Jiang Yuan, accompanied by his luxurious bodyguard group, boarded the divine ark.
"Your Highness the Imperial Son, please be seated firmly!"
Steward Fusheng respectfully said, then injected a massive amount of magical power into the ark's core.
Buzz—!
The world-breaking divine ark let out a soft hum, and its entire hull lit up.
The next second, the space in front of the hull, like paper,
was easily torn open, revealing an incredibly deep spatial tunnel.
The divine ark transformed into a black light, instantly plunging into the tunnel and disappearing.
And the moment the divine ark vanished, deep within the Jiang Family Ancestral Land, the wills of several Old Ancestors communicated once more.
"Is everything arranged?"
"Don't worry, eldest brother, Sixth Brother's world-breaking divine ark, plus a dozen Saints, numerous Supremes, and Quasi-Emperors secretly guarding forRescue at any time (ready to rescue at any time), is enough even if Yuaner wanted to poke a hole in the Lower Realm."
"Hmm, good, then let's start the warm-up in the Emperor Immortal Great World too."
"Let's spread the glory of our clan's Imperial Son throughout the entire Great World, and then proactively offer the divine daughters and imperial daughters of various clans, hehehe..."
"ready to rescue at any time"
