Jiang Che's Shamelessness

"Pah! You old fossil still have the nerve to say that? With your mediocre talent... if you hadn’t lucked out and bound that quasi-Heavenly Dao 'Many Children, Many Blessings' system, could you have ever become an Emperor? Now the Jiang Family’s spirit stone resources are nearly exhausted by your horde of descendants!"

"I call bullshit! I’ve never taken a single resource from the Jiang Family! Don’t you dare slander me!"

"Ahem... When you’re old, you just like to admire fragrant and alluring things... It’s all just for the eyes."

"Pah! Your 1,009th concubine just gave birth to another son last month..."

Watching the heated argument, Jiang Che quietly exited the group chat.

Listening to these Jiang Family Emperors bicker, he couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed. He had thought himself quite the playboy, but... these ancestral Emperors were on another level entirely.

Turns out, being a womanizer wasn’t his true nature—it was inherited! It had nothing to do with Jiang Che himself!

He was merely upholding the fine traditions passed down by his ancestors.

Noticing Jiang Che’s departure, the Jiang Family Emperors exchanged glances and chuckled. But soon, their expressions turned grave.

"This time, we’ve thoroughly offended the Jialan Clan. That Jialan Empress will probably emerge from seclusion soon—Jia Ling’er is her most doted-upon daughter..."

The royal bloodline of the Jialan Clan had always demanded purity. Each generation’s queen reproduced asexually to birth the next princess. Currently, Jia Ling’er was the only princess. And given Jiang Che’s character... that little mermaid would likely be devoured tonight.

"No choice. We’ll have to prepare in advance. Notify the other Emperors in the clan, as well as our Jiang Family’s prodigies... Oh, and recall that one."

"Reporting to the Ancestor, she recently entered a forbidden trial ground and is currently undergoing her seventh Nirvana Rebirth... She’ll be fine."

"Hmm... She’s a true immortal descendant, sealed away for 100,000 years. In terms of seniority... even I would have to call her Ancestor!" The hunched-back elder spoke, his eyes filled with melancholy.

100,000 years ago, a top-tier Three Tribulation True Immortal of the Jiang Family gave birth to a daughter with an immortal spiritual root.

Later, that immortal ancestor foresaw that the Jiang Family would face annihilation in the golden age 100,000 years hence. Thus, she sealed her own daughter away, even bestowing an immortal artifact for protection.

If not for Jiang Che, this true immortal descendant with an immortal spiritual root would have been their ultimate trump card. But who could’ve predicted that the immortal ancestor’s calculations would be off? The Jiang Family had actually birthed a dual-immortal physique successor in the mortal realm!

"By the way, she’s heard rumors of Jiang Che’s immortal physique and has been quite interested in him..."

Jiang Hong shook his head with a smile. "Her talent is also monstrous—ranked third on the Heavenly Pride List 100,000 years ago. But that kid has the recognition of the Ancient Heavenly Court, plus his dual-immortal physique... An immortal spiritual root might not be enough to suppress him."

Just then, an Emperor who wished to remain anonymous suddenly spoke up. "Oh, and she’s also breathtakingly beautiful—skin like snow, bones like jade. Given Jiang Che’s... tendencies... what if... Damn it, wouldn’t that mess up the family hierarchy?"

The other Emperors: "......"

...

Nine Heavens, Jialan Clan.

"Outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!!!"

"That Jiang Family dares to shield their descendant like this, even allowing him to defile our princess! Do they think the Jialan Clan is made of pushovers?"

"What? Are you serious? Dual-immortal physique? That bastard even has the Void Immortal Physique?!"

"Absolutely true. Though it was just a projected illusion, it was unmistakably the Void Immortal Physique. It’s precisely because Jiang Che revealed his dual-immortal physique that the Jiang Family is shielding him so blatantly. Hurry and summon Her Majesty! Any later... and the princess’s purity will be lost!"

"No! The Empress must not emerge now! She’s on the verge of ascending to immortality—she cannot be disturbed! And not a whisper of this can reach her... We’ll have to summon the other clan elders. We must find a way to intervene in the lower realm and rescue the princess..."

...

As the Jialan Clan feared, Jia Ling’er’s situation was far from ideal.

Even without the Immortal-Binding Rope restraining her, she was no match for Jiang Che.

Though Jiang Che had only recently stepped into the Divine Transformation Realm, with the boost from his dual-immortal physique and other buffs, he could easily suppress Jia Ling’er—who was at the peak of Divine Transformation—without even relying on system item cards.

"Let me go! Even if you defile me... my mother will avenge me! She’ll grind your bones to dust!"

Jia Ling’er, trapped in Jiang Che’s embrace, shouted angrily—though her voice lacked conviction. Right now, she was nothing more than a fish on the chopping block.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Your Highness... Tell me, what part of this young master isn’t worthy of you? In terms of talent... is your so-called ‘Mermaid Immortal Bloodline’ any match for my dual-immortal physique? And I condensed an Immortal’s Mark at the Divine Transformation Realm—what about you, Princess?"

Jiang Che grinned, giving Jia Ling’er’s mermaid tail a firm pat. The texture was surprisingly pleasant—sometimes, swapping jade-like legs for something different was refreshing.

"M-Mid-grade Emperor Martial Mark!" Jia Ling’er muttered, her confidence crumbling.

Once, condensing an Emperor Martial Mark had been a point of pride. Now, it felt like a brand of shame.

"Hah! Mid-grade Emperor Martial Mark? That’s it? I thought you were some kind of genius!"

Jiang Che’s laughter shattered Jia Ling’er’s remaining dignity.

"You... Don’t get cocky! Talent doesn’t change the fact that you’re scum. The heavens must be blind to grant someone like you such gifts!"

"Go on, keep insulting me. This young master loves hearing beauties curse—it’s like celestial music~~~"

Jiang Che closed his eyes, savoring every word.

Jia Ling’er: "......"

How could anyone be this shameless?

Jiang Che wasn’t in a hurry to "devour" the tsundere princess. Instead, his gaze drifted to the five other mermaids who had descended with her.

Under the scrutiny of this demonic playboy, the mermaids huddled together in fear.

"You, come here." Jiang Che crooked a finger.

Truth be told, these five mermaids were each stunning in their own way. Though none matched Jia Ling’er’s royal aura, their looks were no less impressive—each scoring at least a 95 on Jiang Che’s beauty scale.

The young master was very pleased.

"Greetings, Young Master Jiang!" The leading mermaid, a mature beauty, bowed slightly—revealing a jaw-dropping figure.

The other four followed suit. The one at the back, Qing’er, was still sniffling, clearly terrified.

"Good, good. What’s your name?" Jiang Che kept Jia Ling’er pinned with one arm while pulling the voluptuous mermaid closer with the other.

Blushing, the mermaid quickly composed herself and leaned against Jiang Che’s shoulder. "I’m Jia Xue’er. You can call me Xue’er."
