How Did You Know?
The Jiang Family.
"Well, it's been more than three months. Has the Wan Chu Holy Land given any response? Is Fairy Caiyun still in the Holy Land?" Jiang Yun asked, looking at the old man in front of him.
The old man shook his head and said, "The Wan Chu Holy Land is unwilling to answer this question. No matter what we say, the Wan Chu Holy Land refuses to answer."
"Refusing to answer this question?" Jiang Yun frowned. "Logically speaking, our Jiang Family has no enmity with the Wan Chu Holy Land, and Fairy Caiyun's whereabouts are not a secret. Why refuse to answer? Could it be that the Divine King Ancestor really went to the Wan Chu Holy Land and took Fairy Caiyun away?"
Jiang Yun was more inclined to accept this answer.
According to the rules of the Wan Chu Holy Land, Saintess cannot marry outside the sect; even if she were to marry, she could only marry Holy Son from within the sect.
If Jiang Taixu really went to the Wan Chu Holy Land and took away the Saintess from over four thousand years ago, it would be an absolute disgrace to the Wan Chu Holy Land. Therefore, they refused to answer this question.
"So, the Divine King Ancestor might actually be alive?" Jiang Yun's eyes lit up.
The old man opposite him nodded slightly and smiled, "It should be. According to the information I've gathered in the Wan Chu Holy Land Wan Chu Holy Land over the past few months, there was a period of chaos there a few years ago, as if someone had broken into the Holy Land. Considering the timeline, it might have been the work of the Divine King Ancestor."
"But if the Divine King Ancestor is really still alive, why doesn't he return to the family?" The old man then looked somewhat worried.
They belonged to Jiang Taixu's lineage, but lately they had been having an increasingly difficult time. This was because the patriarch's lineage was constantly suppressing them, so they desperately needed to find Jiang Taixu.
With a Divine King in the world, even the patriarch's lineage would never be able to suppress him.
Jiang Yun's pupils contracted as if he had thought of something, and then he sighed, "After all, it's been five thousand years... Even if the Divine King Ancestor's cultivation is Tongtian, five thousand years is probably close to the end of his life. If I'm not mistaken, the Divine King Ancestor plans to spend his final years with Fairy Caiyun... Alas!"
With a sigh, Jiang Yun understood Jiang Taixu's actions.
Jiang Taixu's greatest regret in life was Fairy Caiyun. Now that his lifespan is coming to an end, he will do his best to make up for that last regret, which can be said to be Jiang Taixu's greatest wish.
If it were him, Jiang Yun would definitely make the same choice.
"So, what about those two from Crane Courtyard?" the old man suddenly asked.
"Let them go!" Jiang Yun shook his head and said no more. "They're just two juniors, no need to bother with them."
"That's not right!" Another old man shook his head.
"Oh?"
Everyone looked over.
The old man chuckled and said, "Given the Divine King Ancestor's character, even if his lifespan is nearing its end, he would never allow the Battle Saint Method of my human race to be lost. Since that person claims to be the Divine King Ancestor's savior, I suspect that the Divine King Ancestor has already passed down the Nine Secrets."
"The Nine Secrets are of great importance. Rather than letting them go, it would be better to take them into the Crane Courtyard and deal with them gradually." The old man stroked his beard and revealed a kind smile.
"Report!!"
Just then, a voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"What is it?" Jiang Yun asked.
Soon, a young cultivator from the Jiang Family came in from outside, looking somewhat flustered. "Those two from the Crane Courtyard are demanding cultivation resources!"
"Cultivation resources? I gave them three drops of top-grade Dragon Marrow and two jin of Source, and they've already used them all up?" Jiang Yun's face showed a hint of surprise. "It seems that the two of them have already broken through to a higher realm!"
The young man nodded and said, "That's right, they have already broken through to the Dao Palace Realm and the Dragon Transformation Realm; but that one in the Dao Palace Realm, the resources he requested... are too much, ten million jin of Source!"
"Ten jin of Source, that much? What do they mean?" Jiang Yun frowned. "Are they trying to extort money from my Jiang Family?"
As he spoke, a terrifying aura suddenly emanated from Jiang Yun.
"Hmph, I'll go see just how bold they are to ask for so much source!" Jiang Yun said with a hint of anger on his face. He got up and headed towards the Crane Courtyard.
Crane Courtyard.
"Hey Zhou Tong, do you think the Jiang Family might go back on their word? Judging from that guy's expression, it's unlikely Jiang Family 'll give me that many resources." Ye Fan looked at Zhou Tong and suddenly asked.
"Don't worry, I have my own methods!" Zhou Tong raised his hand and revealed a smile.
Just then, a familiar face appeared before Zhou Tong; it was Jiang Yun from the Jiang Family.
Jiang Yun smiled slightly, as if joking, and said, "Gentlemen, our Jiang Family will provide you with all the resources for cultivation, so please don't make such a joke!"
Zhou Tong laughed and said, "How could it be a joke?"
As he spoke, Zhou Tong took out the recording Array Patterns he had used before, and immediately a recording and video appeared—
"Our Jiang Family has supplied this young man with all the resources he needs to reach the Other Shore Realm, the Dao Palace Realm, and even to break through to the Four Extremities Realm in the future..."
Jiang Yun's smile gradually turned cold as he said, "We did agree beforehand that the resources this young man needs in the Dao Palace Realm, and even for breaking through to the Four Extremities Realm, will be provided by our Jiang Family. However, the amount of resources this young man is asking for is a bit outrageous!"
"Your blood is boiling, unleash all your vigorous Life Essence, and show it to this senior." Zhou Tong glanced at Ye Fan and said indifferently.
Ye Fan obeyed without reservation. In an instant, golden light filled the air, and his blood energy soared to the sky, like a True Dragon reviving. The powerful vitality made Jiang Yun's face turn black.
Damn it, the Primordial Sacred Body!
Damn it, this most unremarkable guy actually has such a disgusting constitution!!
"We didn't know beforehand that this young man possessed the Primordial Sacred Body!" Jiang Yun said.
Zhou Tong activated the Array Patterns again.
"Let me make it clear beforehand that my brother's cultivation in the Dao Palace Realm, and his breakthrough to the Four Extremities Realm, will require a lot of resources, you know? Is your Jiang Family really willing to provide them?"
"No problem!"
Jiang Yun's face darkened, unable to respond. If he had known you were the Primordial Sacred Body, he would never have agreed.
"Young man, it's not good for you to keep bringing this out!" At this moment, another old man's sinister voice came, and at the same time, he moved extremely fast, directly snatching the recording Array Patterns from Zhou Tong's hand.
"Do you gentlemen know what the biggest event has been recently?" Zhou Tong glanced at the old man, not annoyed that he had taken away his Array Patterns, and even had a slight smile on his face.
"What do you mean?" Jiang Yun immediately sensed something was wrong.
Zhou Tong said calmly, "Recently, there have been rumors that an unknown cultivator underwent tribulation at the Ji Family's mine headquarters, resulting in the deaths of ten of the seventeen powerful figures at the Ji Family's mine headquarters, and seven of them being seriously injured..."
"Heh, you wouldn't be saying you want to experience that too, would you? Heavenly Tribulation aren't something every cultivator can... Wait! You've always stayed at Crane Courtyard, how would you know about this?!"
The old man initially sneered, as if mocking Zhou Tong for overestimating himself; but then he realized what was happening, his face showing surprise, and his mind trembled.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed drastically. This person was actually able to contact the outside world while under house arrest?
Could it be that the information recorded within the Array Patterns has already been disseminated? Or even copied several times?
Has this thing already spread throughout the entire Big Dipper?
In an instant, everyone broke out in a cold sweat, and a look of fear appeared on their faces.
If this information were to get out, it would ruin the reputation that the Jiang Family had built up over thousands of years!
Although the Jiang Family could suppress this matter by force, it would require the entire Jiang Family to intervene. This was something that their Divine Blood Lineage alone could not handle.
They were already being suppressed by the head of the family. If this kind of thing happened now, the head of the family would have such a big handle against them, and their future would be even more difficult.
"Young man, I was just joking! The quantity of resources you requested is too large, and we need some time to prepare... We only have 100,000 jin of Source on hand for now!" Jiang Yun apologized first. "We'll go prepare other resources right away!"
With that, he quickly led the powerful figures from the Jiang Family away from Crane Courtyard.
