"Even if I obtained just one of them, I would see an unimaginable leap in power. When that time comes... hahaha, the Jiang Family's standing would surely rise another step—or even several!"
"Heh."
At the thought of this, Jiang Lan could no longer suppress the laughter in his heart and actually chuckled aloud.
However...
At this very moment, the faces and reputations of countless prodigies across the entire God Realm were being ground into the dirt!
Laughing now would not do.
He hurriedly reined in his smile and forced a look of grief and indignation onto his face.
But...
Why the hell would the corners of his mouth not stay down?
Damn mouth, get down already!!!
Still, though his sudden snicker had come and gone quickly, it caught the attention of the other four Immortal Emperors.
The Earth Divine King glanced sideways at him. "What are you laughing at?"
"Laughing?"
"What laughing?" Jiang Lan immediately frowned. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Do you know how much hope I had placed in the prodigies of our God Realm?"
"Do you know how much I love my daughter?"
"To keep her from marrying into the Three Thousand Continents, I organized this martial contest for marriage, hoping the prodigies of our God Realm could crush that brat. And what happened???"
"The prodigies of our mighty God Realm all gathered together, yet they proved so utterly incapable of withstanding a single blow!"
"Laugh? All I want to do now is cry!"
"These so-called prodigies of the God Realm have truly made me suffer."
"They have made me suffer!!!"
His words were heartfelt and indignant.
Yet...
The four Divine Kings all rolled their eyes.
What a wonderful speech.
But...
Before saying all that, could you at least press down the corners of your mouth?
