The foundations of a Desolate Ancient Family were enough to move anyone. As a child, Jiang Tingting had cultivated in the Jiang Family's divine islands and secret realms, gaining tremendous benefits.
The Jiang Family knew Jiang Ming had no deep attachment to them, so they devoted themselves to raising Jiang Tingting instead. Tingting was still young; her ties to the family could grow stronger.
The more outstanding Jiang Ming became, the better the Jiang Family treated Jiang Tingting.
Besides, Jiang Tingting had someone backing her: Gu Qingyao, a Saint.
Later, Jiang Taixu returned and took the Hengyu Furnace away. Only then did the Jiang Family discover that their God King ancestor was still alive.
As for what reserves the Jiang Family had left, there were none. Jiang Taixu often took the Hengyu Furnace away, declaring that he himself was the Jiang Family's foundation.
Time proved him right. After countless ages, the reserves of the Jiang Family, a Desolate Ancient Family, had been exhausted.
That was also why, in the original story, the Jiang Family had risked everything to enter Purple Mountain and rescue God-King Jiang Taixu.
As for Jiang Yifei, a follower of the Survival Dao, his bloodline had awakened its ancestral traits. He cultivated at his own pace, under no pressure at all, and had become the Jiang Family's Holy Master.
Jiang Ming worried that his elderly father would be lonely, so he entrusted Jiang Tang to his master, Cai Duyi, and sent him to Clumsy Peak. Jiang Ming hoped that the elder Li Ruoyu would teach him the Clumsy Peak method as well.
Jiang Ming's father had cultivated the Martial Dao on his own and had even reached the Great Grandmaster realm. With his dantian and Sea of Bitterness opened, he could now cultivate the Shrouding Method.
