Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2422: Chapter 34: Dayaoyao Obtains the Immortal Scripture! The Sword Points at Lingyun Immortal Palace

…

Immortal Monarch Haoran was dazed for a long time before retracting his gaze with a sigh: “Indeed, the offspring of noble families are beyond our understanding. If only I had the opportunity to be born into such a family, perhaps… alas~”

A long sigh.

“Old Ancestor.”

At this moment, Family Head Jiang Jian Mu led a young man who appeared to be in his thirties over.

This young man was dressed in green, with handsome features and an extraordinary aura. It was evident that he was an elite offspring carefully nurtured by the family.

After following the rules to pay respects to the Old Ancestor with the young man, Jiang Jian Mu asked hopefully, “Did Young Master Shouzhe agree to our request?”

“The Sea of Clouds Whale Boat has been sold, including maintenance fees, for a total of fifteen Immortal Spirit Stones. Jianmu, within these few days, lead people to purchase materials and systematically maintain the Sea of Clouds Whale Boat. Ensure excellence in quality and timely completion.” Immortal Monarch Haoran’s expression was solemn, “Young Master Shouzhe has been generous to our Jiang’s, so we must not disgrace our ancestors.”

“Rest assured, Old Ancestor.” Jiang Jian Mu said seriously, “Though our Jiang’s has fallen, we have not lost the spirit of our ancestors and will never deceive customers in business. Moreover, should we dare to deceive Young Master Shouzhe, it might bring disaster upon Jiang’s.”

More than two hundred thousand years ago, the ancestors of Jiang’s followed the lineage of Emperor Tianrui to this barren land to pioneer, battling the heavens, the earth, and fierce beasts. After unknown hardships, they established this place for the human race to reside as the Tianrui Sacred Dynasty.

At their peak, Jiang’s had several True Immortals, being a powerful immortal clan with great reputation within the Tianrui Sacred Dynasty. Though Jiang’s has declined now, their spirit remains unbowed.

“It’s good you understand. Unfortunately, our descendants have not lived up to expectations, failing to uphold the vast endeavors won by the ancestors of Jiang’s.” Immortal Monarch Haoran’s gaze was sorrowful, but recalling the recent efforts, he quickly suppressed his emotions and was filled with determination once more, “This time, no matter what, our Jiang’s must preserve this only True Immortal inheritance.”

The entire Jiang’s knew that if this True Immortal succession failed, Jiang’s would fall from the ranks of the immortal clan into the mundane world, with no chance to rise again.

For the current Jiang’s, it was already a do-or-die situation.

“Old Ancestor, but the [Manifestation Pill] is an eleventh-grade Dan medicine, and it seems that a dozen Immortal Spirit Stones are difficult to procure…” Jiang Jian Mu said with difficulty.

“Then sell more valuable ancestral properties, gather at least thirty Immortal Spirit Stones first.” Immortal Monarch Haoran said resolutely, “After all, once we fail, Jiang’s will have no power to protect those assets, so it’s better to sell them off cleanly.”

“Yes, Old Ancestor.”

Jiang Jian Mu bowed in agreement, then turned to the “young man” beside him, instructing: “Xuan’er, prepare yourself well, and adjust your energy, spirit, and mental state to the best condition. Once we prepare the Manifestation Pill and arrange a time with His Majesty the Saint Emperor, be ready to consume the Manifestation Pill to enhance your bloodline.”

“Yes, Old Ancestor.”

Jiang Yunxuan responded respectfully.

His early life had been as a Void Realm seedling, and now suddenly being chosen as a True Immortal Seed, while joyful, the pressure in his heart was also immense.

However, the responsibility for the family left him no room for retreat. Despite the monumental pressure, he could only grit his teeth and move forward. To not ascend is tantamount to death.

“The Immortal Tea given by Young Master Shouzhe seems to have a strong calming and concentrating effect, far surpassing the Immortal Tea in our clan.” Immortal Monarch Haoran transferred some Immortal Tea to Jiang Yunxuan, “This Immortal Tea’s effect will be very beneficial for your bloodline enhancement this time, so keep it for yourself.”

“Old Ancestor… this is yours!”

“I am but an old man on the verge of the grave; what use is drinking more Immortal Tea? Jianmu, collect and store the Spirit Meat and Spirit Rice given by Young Master Shouzhe to feed Xuan’er later.”

“Yes, Old Ancestor. Then, what about the top quality Spirit Stones that the young master gave to the children…”

Immortal Monarch Haoran was silent for a moment, then sighed, “Keep nine tenths, leave them a bit of opportunity…”

If he could, he wished to leave these Spirit Stones for the children, but given the current situation of Jiang’s… alas~ he could only blame himself, the Old Ancestor, for not being competent, letting these children suffer grievances.

“Yes, Old Ancestor.”

Jiang Jian Mu responded silently as well.

Though he felt for the elite youths of the family, in this time of the family’s life-and-death crisis, sacrifices must be made!

…

While the Jiang’s were planning for the future of the family, Wang Shouzhe and Yun Tiange, who had left Heavenly Rui Jiang’s, were also discussing matters concerning Jiang’s.

As a luxurious flying carriage specially prepared by the Divine Treasure Hall for Honorable Guests, this carriage’s litter was almost as large as a small villa, divided into several rooms, even with dedicated bedrooms and training quiet rooms, enough for three to five cultivators to reside long-term.

And because Yao Yumei needed to stay temporarily with Jiang’s to handle the follow-up procedures for the Sea of Clouds Whale Boat and did not leave Jiang’s, apart from Wang Shouzhe and Yun Tiange, there were only some accompanying attendants from the Divine Treasure Hall in the spacious litter, and with the strength of the two, a little concealment was enough to ensure no one could know the content of their conversation.

In the most spacious hall in the center of the litter.

Wang Shouzhe and Yun Tiange sat on the left and right in luxurious and comfortable Taishi Chairs.

The splendid Spirit Stone chandelier emitted bright light.

Under the light, Wang Shouzhe, dressed in white, sat casually, but his aura remained ethereal and transcendent, akin to an immortal young master.
