After the Jin Family finalized their heir,
all the guests began to take their seats for the banquet.
Jin Youxi sat right beside her grandfather.
Apart from Jin Youxi, everyone else at the same table as the Jin Family patriarch were prominent figures in Korea.
Korea had no Martial Saints—
Martial Sovereigns were their highest-tier combatants.
The entire country had only eleven Martial Sovereigns.
This alone spoke volumes about the Jin patriarch’s strength and status.
The attendees first toasted to the Jin patriarch,
then one by one, they started inquiring about Jin Youxi.
"Youxi, what kind of martial art is this?"
"I’ve never heard of it before."
Jin Youxi proudly replied,
"I practice the Divine Palm of Buddha!"
"In this world, only my master and I know it—of course you’ve never seen it."
Hearing this, everyone immediately grew intensely curious about Jin Youxi’s master.
"Youxi, who is your master? Which esteemed expert from Great Xia is he?"
At the mention of her master, Jin Youxi’s heart ached.
Her proud expression instantly turned sorrowful.
"My master is named Chen Feng, the most prodigious genius in Great Xia."
"At the Martial Disciple level, he could defeat Martial Artists above his rank."
"At the Martial Artist level, he could overpower Advanced Martial Artists."
"My master has never lost a single battle."
"And the recent national Martial Disciple championship in Great Xia? The winner was my junior sister."
Hearing this, the guests assumed Chen Feng must be a legendary figure.
Some immediately pulled out their phones to search for information about Chen Feng from Great Xia.
Soon, details about Chen Feng surfaced—
but the reality was different from what they’d imagined.
"A young man in his twenties?"
"Suspected member of the extremist organization, Devouring Heaven Club."
"Mastered three Heaven-tier peak-level techniques to perfection at the Martial Disciple level?"
"Disaster struck at Kunlun Mountain—the monstrous genius Chen Feng is presumed dead."
...
The unexpected news reports about Chen Feng made the guests feel like they’d stumbled upon a massive scandal.
Their curiosity about him only deepened.
Regardless, based on Jin Youxi’s performance today,
the attendees understood one thing:
With her prodigious talent, mastery of a Heaven-tier peak-level technique, and profound comprehension of martial arts,
the Jin Family would not decline in the future.
In fact, they might rise even higher.
After all, the Jin patriarch’s Iron Sand Palm was only an Earth-tier technique in Great Xia,
while his granddaughter had brought back a Heaven-tier peak-level technique.
A quick online search for the Divine Palm of Buddha
brought up past footage of Chen Feng using it in battle.
The onlookers couldn’t help but feel envious.
"With Youxi’s technique, the Jin Family is destined for greater heights."
"I envy the Park Family’s boy—too bad we don’t have a suitable child in our family."
"A Heaven-tier peak-level technique—this is the first time Korea has obtained such a high-level martial art."
"The Park Family hit the jackpot. It’s downright infuriating."
The Jin patriarch laughed heartily, in excellent spirits.
After so many years, his family had finally produced a descendant who brought him pride.
Meanwhile, the Park Family was also grinning from ear to ear.
The Park patriarch grew even more satisfied with his future granddaughter-in-law.
He stood up and called over his second grandson.
"You two are about to get engaged—why not get acquainted today?"
The Park Family’s second young master eagerly scurried to the Jin patriarch’s side.
He loudly greeted,
"Master!"
Then, turning to Jin Youxi with a smile, he said,
"Youxi, hello! My name is—"
Before he could finish,
Jin Youxi tugged at her grandfather’s sleeve and declared,
"Grandfather, I don’t like him."
"I won’t get engaged to him—I already have someone I love."
The Park Family’s second young master froze on the spot,
his face burning with humiliation.
His fiancée-to-be had just openly admitted she loved someone else—right in front of him.
He had no idea how to save face.
His family’s strongest member was only a Grandmaster,
far below the Jin patriarch’s level.
And the Jin patriarch was also his master.
The atmosphere turned awkward.
Everyone silently enjoyed the drama.
The Jin patriarch quickly scolded his granddaughter,
"Don’t talk nonsense! Go to your room—I’ll deal with you later."
Then, turning to the Park patriarch, he apologized,
"Kids these days—they’ll say anything to avoid marriage."
"I’ll make sure to settle this properly."
"Let’s all enjoy the meal for now."
The Park patriarch forced a smile and nodded.
He was helpless.
When the engagement was proposed, he had no say.
Now that they might call it off, he still had no say.
After all, this was a Martial Sovereign they were dealing with.
After the meal,
the Jin patriarch looked at his beloved granddaughter
and sighed.
"Explain yourself. What’s going on in that head of yours?"
Jin Youxi wasn’t even sure if the person she loved was still alive,
but she knew she couldn’t accept anyone else.
Facing her grandfather, she went straight to the point.
"Grandfather, the reason I came back is because I want the family’s Crimson Fruit."
Crimson Fruit?
The Jin patriarch frowned.
"What do you need it for?"
Jin Youxi answered truthfully,
"My junior sister’s right leg meridians are ruined."
"I want to use the Crimson Fruit to heal her."
"But don’t worry—once I grow stronger, I’ll pay you back."
"Once you grow stronger"?
The Jin patriarch was speechless.
He wasn’t sure he’d live to see that day.
Earlier, he’d also looked up Chen Feng’s information—
after all, he was Jin Youxi’s master.
The results shocked him.
Now, he voiced his own thoughts.
"I’ll give you the Crimson Fruit."
"But if your master emerges from Kunlun Mountain,
you must convince him to immigrate here.
I’ll hand over the family and the Crimson Fruit to him."
"Same goes for your junior sister—once she immigrates, the Crimson Fruit is hers."
Jin Youxi immediately refused,
"No!"
"My master is a man of principle and conviction—he’d never immigrate."
"My junior sister wouldn’t either. She’d follow Master’s example—she’d never betray Great Xia."
The Jin patriarch tried to persuade her,
"Right now, Great Xia isn’t treating your master or junior sister well."
"Your master used the Devouring Heaven Technique—the Martial Arts Association won’t let that slide."
"And your junior sister? There’s already a crowd protesting to strip her of her championship title."
"If they come here, they won’t face these troubles. They’ll receive the best treatment."
Jin Youxi hesitated,
"It’s no use. My master once said—"
"He’d rather be a ghost in Great Xia than immigrate."
"And I want to immigrate to Great Xia too—to stay with Master and my junior sister forever."
The Jin patriarch scolded in frustration,
"You didn’t learn a single thing from your master’s patriotism!"
Jin Youxi shot back,
"I did learn! I’ll be a ghost in Great Xia too—right beside Master!"
The Jin patriarch was utterly defeated.
Clearly, his granddaughter had been thoroughly "corrupted."
