Tian Huanzhang’s choice did not surprise Tian Anping. If Tian Huanzhang still possessed such courage, he wouldn’t have been so despised, given his Outer Building realm cultivation.

To cultivate to the Outer Building realm, one must have overcome countless difficulties and possessed extraordinary willpower and courage.

However, many have gradually lost themselves in the long years and endless glory, discarding the sharp spirit and courage that carried them this far.

Tian Huanzhang was not an isolated case; on the contrary, there were many such individuals, and their numbers were growing.

They occupied vast resources, plundered numerous opportunities, yet lacked the courage to progress.

Those truly ambitious newcomers couldn’t even see the door.

In Tian Anping’s view, these people were like rotten branches on a giant tree, weevils, useless sacks of rice, and burdens on the Tian Clan’s path forward.

Of course, in the eyes of many people and powers, an Outer Building realm weevil was still an Outer Building realm cultivator, a powerful force, a considerable asset.

But the standards of the world were of no concern to Tian Anping.

“Wen Lianmu, Wang Yiwu,” Tian Anping savored these two names, “This matter has become interesting from this moment onward.”

The vast Seven Stars Valley soon became empty.

Tian Anping stood alone in the valley, gazing at the sky in a daze.

Xiao Tong sized up Jiang Wang from head to toe, her big eyes filled with even greater surprise.

In her heart, her young lady was the most powerful person in the world, destined to win the Seven Stars Mystic Realm.

She never imagined that the first place would be taken by Jiang Wang, a seemingly shy fellow.

“Hey, hey, hey, young lady, be a little reserved. You can’t stare like that just because someone is handsome.”

Jiang Wuxie smiled teasingly, stepping between her and Jiang Wang, blocking her view, “Xiao Tong, what’s wrong? Don’t you recognize me? Not even a greeting?”

Purely in terms of appearance, Jiang Wang could indeed be considered handsome now.

In the past, he could only be described as having delicate features. But with the passage of time, he had matured a bit. Wind and frost had sculpted his features, making his face more defined. The biggest change was in his temperament. In addition to his usual gentleness and propriety, he had cultivated a confidence and composure that looked down on mountains, as well as a steadfastness like a pine tree standing on a high cliff. These made him much more attractive.

Of course, in terms of appearance, there was still no comparison with Jiang Wuxie, who had been handsome since childhood.

Xiao Tong pouted, reluctantly saying, “This servant dares not.”

She seemed very familiar with Jiang Wuxie, probably because he had been hanging around Li Fengyao too often.

Jiang Wuxie took a step forward, teasing the little maid with great pleasure, “You dare not what?”

“Do you have anything else?” Li Fengyao’s cold voice instantly cooled Jiang Wuxie down.

He put away the wicked smile on his lips, put on a serious look, and looked at Jiang Wang seriously: “I admire you very much, would you consider working for me in the future?”

After Jiang Wang defeated Lei Zhangan with a sword, he had no idea what to do. He couldn’t come up with enough chips for that level of powerhouse. After knowing that Jiang Wang’s sword was not a conventional combat power, he regained the possibility of being recruited.

Jiang Wang was stunned by Jiang Wuxie’s sudden invitation.

Uh, so he didn’t come for Li Fengyao.

Think about it. With Li Fengyao’s character, pestering her would really lead to death.

“Without saying anything else, you won’t lack cultivation resources until you reach the Godly Illumination Realm. Even in the future… Let’s talk about the future later, this palace won’t make empty promises.”

Analyzing from Jiang Wuxie’s own gains, Jiang Wang, who won the first place in the Seven Stars Secret Realm and came out of the Tiankui Star position, has opened the road to the Outer Building Realm. And the previous experience in the Tianfu Secret Realm meant the qualification for the supernatural power inner government.

Jiang Wuxie placed a heavy bet on him to reach the Godly Illumination Realm!

And the “future” he glanced over without mentioning was naturally after winning the throne. How long of a future can an act of supporting the emperor secure? The cultivation resources of the entire Qi State were at the disposal of any practitioner, which was a dream come true.

He said he wouldn’t make empty promises, but he still drew a pie.

For these people who are proficient in power, “drawing a pie” is a basic ability engraved in their instincts.

“By the way, your surname is also Jiang.” Jiang Wuxie continued to increase his chips: “Within a year, your name can be listed on the Jiang Clan Genealogy.”

This sincerity is heavy enough.

Jiang Wuxie’s power lies in the Zongren Mansion. He is the prince most supported by the royal family. So there is no need to doubt that he can do this.

Especially Jiang Wang himself is surnamed Jiang, as long as he traces his ancestors and finds a suitable extinct clan, he can continue this genealogy.

Having his name listed on the Jiang Clan Genealogy of Qi means that Jiang Wang can become a recognized Jiang Clan royal family. This represents more than just honor. The benefits of becoming a member of the Jiang Clan royal family are countless. Just the skills and secrets in the royal secret library are enough to make people tempted.

“During the chaotic period before Emperor Wu, many royal children were persecuted and fled Qi. Your ancestors were one of them. They fell into foreign countries for many years and have now returned to their ancestors. What do you think?” Afraid that Jiang Wang would not be clear about his strength, Jiang Wuxie even directly gave the operating process.

This operation is completely feasible.

“Thank you, Your Highness, for your attention.” Jiang Wang smiled apologetically: “But Your Highness should ask Chong Xuansheng about this kind of thing. His attitude is my attitude.”

Chong Xuansheng is not an easy character to fool. And it is conceivable that, with his status, it is impossible to interfere in the internal struggles of the royal family.

Jiang Wuxie asked with a smile, “Brother Jiang is such a character, can’t he still make his own decisions?”

Jiang Wang looked at him, neither humble nor arrogant: “Being a man of my word is my decision.”

This sentence has an attitude.

Jiang Wuxie nodded and didn’t force it any more. He would certainly not do the stupid thing of recruiting enemies instead.

Pretending that nothing had happened, he smiled at Li Fengyao again: “Sister Li, are you going back to Linzi? We just happen to be going together.”

His smile, which was a little evil but not annoying at all, was indeed very charming.

But because he knew his charm too well and was too good at using this smile, Xiao Tong felt that Jiang Wang, who was shy and embarrassed, was more cute.

Earlier, Jiang Wuxie’s invitation to Jiang Wang was inconvenient for Li Fengyao to speak, but at this time, she ignored Jiang Wuxie and only said to Jiang Wang: “I have something to go to sea for, you go back to Linzi yourself.”

Jiang Wang nodded in agreement.

Jiang Wuxie laughed loudly: “What a coincidence! If you hadn’t said it, I would have almost forgotten that I have to go to the seaside for something. We are on the same way! Speaking of which, Yangxin Palace has an island near the sea, the scenery…”

Li Fengyao interrupted his eloquence with just one sentence: “We are not on the same way.”

Looking at Li Fengyao’s unchangeable eyes, Jiang Wuxie scratched his head: “It’s not very convenient, huh.”

“Then goodbye.” Li Fengyao said.

“Hey!”

Jiang Wuxie turned around and left without hesitation. Of course he could see that Li Fengyao was already impatient.

He would never allow himself to be hated by a peerless beauty.

Jiang Wang looked at the back of the Ninth Prince and was thoughtful.

It is said that Jiang Wuxie is extreme and irritable, but he did not see it in this short contact. I don’t know if it is because he tailors his behavior to people, or is it a cover-up?
