"I've said it before—only those in the top 50 of the Heavenly Pride Ranking or the Beauty Ranking! Of course, the Fairy Clan's Holy Maiden is also acceptable... As for the rest of those mediocre women, don’t even bother!"
Jiang Che waved his hand dismissively before walking away, leaving behind the sound of countless shattered hearts.
Sure, Jiang Che had a reputation for being a playboy, but he wasn’t some mindless womanizer who’d lose his senses at the sight of any random girl on the street.
"Ahem, everyone, I believe you’ve all heard what my Che'er has to say, haven’t you? A proper match in status is important, wouldn’t you agree?" Jiang Yunhuang spoke up. "Our Che'er possesses dual immortal physiques and bears the destiny of the Chosen One. His future is boundless. To think that ordinary girls from your clans could latch onto my grandson now—isn’t that just wishful thinking?"
His words left the powerful figures from the great clans utterly humiliated, yet there was nothing they could do.
After all, who knew what hidden trump cards the Jiang Family had up their sleeves?
Not long ago, Jiang Ruoxu had livestreamed his exploration of a secret realm, ultimately returning with a horde of Martial God-level and Nirvana-stage puppet automatons—even rumors of a Quasi-Emperor-tier super puppet.
And then there was Jiang Yunhuang, that old monster whose strength had grown unfathomable, likely already stepping into the Martial God realm.
If a fight broke out, they might just end up annihilated!
......
At the Jiang Family’s Seven-Colored Altar.
As Jiang Che arrived, numerous ancestral souls from the Nine Heavens Jiang Family descended.
"Oh? Jiang Che, you’re here?" Jiang Hong, the Great Emperor, appeared the fastest.
Ever since placing his bets on Jiang Che, he had specially assigned an avatar to keep constant watch over Jiang Che’s movements.
"Mm... Ancestors, I’ve recently acquired many supreme treasures. You’ve all been so generous to me in the past, and I’ve always felt undeserving. Now, I’ve managed to find some treasures for you as well!"
Jiang Che’s words left Jiang Hong stunned.
Honestly, he had never expected Jiang Che to say something like this.
After learning about Jiang Che’s utterly scheming nature, even he had assumed that any resources given to Jiang Che would be like feeding meat to a dog—gone without a trace.
All their investments were purely for Jiang Che’s future potential!
But now... it seemed there were short-term returns as well???
"Hahaha... Jiang Che, you’ve truly warmed our hearts. It seems we old men haven’t gone blind after all..."
Before Jiang Hong could respond, the other Great Emperor ancestors stepped forward, smiling warmly.
"But Jiang Che, young one, you should keep the good things for yourself. We Great Emperors have long since transcended worldly desires..." A third-generation Emperor-level ancestor stroked his beard as he spoke.
Of course, they didn’t believe Jiang Che could produce anything that would move them at this stage.
"I’m not lying, ancestors... What I have in my hands is a supreme treasure—something even you would find invaluable, something that would make even immortals covetous!"
Jiang Che blurted it out without hesitation!
The Jiang Family was absolutely trustworthy. After all, he had even revealed the matter of his Dao Body to them—they were already tied together like grasshoppers on a string.
The smiles on the faces of Jiang Hong and the other Great Emperors faded slightly. Jiang Che’s tone didn’t sound like he was lying.
This kid, as the Chosen One, had an absurdly fortunate destiny. Saying he could trip over money while walking wouldn’t be an exaggeration. Who knew? Maybe he really had stumbled upon some heaven-defying treasure!
"What kind of treasure is it?" the Jiang Family’s patriarch asked seriously.
"Ancestors, I assume you’ve already heard about me obtaining the inheritance of the Ancient Heavenly Court, right?"
That’s right! Jiang Che planned to pin everything on the so-called Ancient Heavenly Court. And if that didn’t suffice... he’d just shift the blame to his mysterious master!
After all, none of this could be verified—who could tell what was true or false?
"The Ancient Heavenly Court!!!"
Jiang Hong and the others widened their eyes, disbelief written all over their faces.
"You truly have news of the Ancient Heavenly Court’s ruins?"
"By the boundless heavens, as expected of the Heavens’ favored son! The Ancient Heavenly Court, lost for millions of years... Back then, the Human Emperor mobilized half the forces of the Nine Heavens and still couldn’t find a trace of it, yet you..."
Jiang Che raised his hand—special effects activated!
With a flourish, he conjured an illusionary replica of the "Heavenly Court Token" identical to the one Chu Yuan possessed.
"Ancestors, this is the Heavenly Court Token. I’ve been chosen by the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court and must undergo a series of trials... With each level I clear, I receive a small portion of the Heavenly Court’s treasures. Once all trials are completed, the entire Ancient Heavenly Court will be unlocked, and I will become its master!"
I, the Heavenly Court’s Master—send funds!
He was cunning enough to emphasize that only "small portions" of treasure would be given. If he promised too much... what if the Jiang Family stopped supplying resources? That would be a huge loss!
"Gasp—the Heavenly Court Token!!! It really is the Heavenly Court Token!!!"
Suddenly, an elder materialized behind the group.
"Thirteenth Ancestor! You’ve come?"
The Thirteenth Ancestor trembled with excitement. "Yes, this is indeed the legendary Heavenly Court Token!"
"The Heavenly Court’s Master... Hahaha, the Heavenly Court!!! The greatest treasure trove in all the Nine Heavens has fallen into the hands of a Jiang Family descendant!"
Even he couldn’t remain composed before the wealth of the Ancient Heavenly Court.
Unless they were among the rare few who had fused with the essence of the Great Dao, even ordinary immortals had limited lifespans—a maximum of 200,000 years!
But if one could find and merge with the origin of the Three Thousand Great Daos, they could achieve true immortality, their lifespan matching that of heaven and earth itself!
Soon, several immortal ancestors crawled out of their tombs one after another.
"Immortal ancestors, I know your lifespans are running short. To preserve your immortal essence, you dare not act recklessly and can only lie dormant, waiting for the descent of the Immortal Realm." Jiang Che spoke slowly.
His words laid bare the greatest concern of all immortals in the Nine Heavens.
Most so-called immortals were barely clinging to their last breaths—except for those young, newly ascended immortals brimming with vitality.
"But!!! During my breakthrough to the Martial God realm in the mortal world, I risked life and limb to clear a trial in the Heavenly Court. As a reward... I obtained a single drop of divine water! I dripped it onto a celestial peach—the immortal-grade Peach of Immortality..."
And so began another classic round of grand exaggeration!
The ancestors were utterly spellbound.
"The immortal peach underwent a mutation???"
"The fruit it bore contains the substance of longevity! A single bite can extend one’s life by ten thousand years!!!"
Honestly, even the immortals couldn’t hold back.
The substance of longevity was the rarest treasure in all the Nine Heavens—the ultimate pursuit of every immortal!
"Exactly! Coincidentally, a new peach has just ripened. Which ancestor would like to claim it?"
With a smile, Jiang Che pulled out the celestial peach that Yao Yao had borne that very morning.
In an instant, even the immortal ancestors lost their composure!
