I'm About to Die, Can't I Buff My Junior Sister's Strength?

223: Should we give him a chance?”Hahaha, Chenyu, how was it? Weren’t you surprised?”

The Ji Family Old Ancestor grinned, looking at Ji Chenyu’s expression without finding it strange at all, only natural.

After all, even old fellows like them, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, slapped their thighs in surprise when they saw it!

It was too exaggerated!

How long had it been, and he was already at the Void Return Third Layer, and it was the invincible kind of Void Return Third Layer that could instantly kill a Fifth Layer across realms.

They had previously thought of waiting until the Coming-of-Age Ceremony to go, but now the Ji Family Old Ancestor had no patience left. Such a Peerless Prodigy must be seized!

”Before, the Old Ancestors thought that the dao palace Young Clan Master Shen forged in the Lower Realm might not be of high enough quality, which could affect his future. But now it seems our worries were superfluous. Brother Shen Min might have considered this long ago...” the Ji Family Old Ancestor said softly.

”With such Battle Intent at the Void Return Third Layer, his dao palace is at least on par with the two sequences of the Shen Family. From his performance in Fentian Capital alone, he is no weaker than the Human Race’s most top-tier Prodigies. The most important thing is his age; he’s only twenty...”

”This talent...”

”Even Old Man Tianji chose him to be the new generation’s Human Emperor!” The Ji Family Old Ancestor’s eyes gleamed; what this represented was self-evident.

The future Co-lord of the Human Race!

Perhaps he would be the second person, besides the First Human Emperor, to truly command all living beings of the Human Race!

After all, the Shen Family and White Jade Capital stood behind him. If the Ji Family’s support were added, the Ji Family Old Ancestor dared not imagine who would dare defy him!

Although he wasn’t entirely clear why Old Man Tianji decided to make Shen Nian the Human Emperor, it no longer mattered.

What mattered was that his Ji Family’s son-in-law was the Young Clan Master of the Shen Family, the Human Emperor!!

”Chenyu, Old Ancestor knows that although you didn’t say it outwardly before, you’ve always resisted it in your heart. The Old Ancestors saw it but didn’t expose it. But now it’s different. Young Clan Master Shen is not as the rumors say; instead, his talent is terrifyingly prodigious. His future is already destined to be the most dazzling person in this Human Race. If you still maintain your current attitude, then no matter how much the Old Ancestors help, it will be useless...”

”Do you understand?” The Ji Family Old Ancestor had a gentle expression, his tone neither hurried nor slow.

Ji Chenyu stared blankly at the Peerless White-robed Figure in the crystal ball. His appearance was as handsome as jade, making her feel somewhat familiar, yet the coldness constantly emanating from his words and actions made her feel strange. And after that one sentence was spoken, it even stirred a trace of emotion in Ji Chenyu’s heart.

”I’ll give you a choice: either cripple your Disciple, or I’ll cripple Fentian Holy Land...”

Although the Ji Family was not in the Eastern Profound Domain, they had heard of Fentian Holy Land. This was not some third-rate or second-rate Holy Land; it was a super Holy Land truly presided over by a Dao Integration expert, especially Yan Wushuang, whose name as a Peerless Dao Integration expert was extremely famous throughout the Five Domains.

Even her father would address him as a Fellow Daoist, yet the White-robed Figure’s tone was that of a superior commanding an inferior, not putting the other party in his eyes at all.

At this moment, Ji Chenyu couldn’t help but think of the boy from six years ago who, in her eyes, was ignorant, only relied on the Old Ancestor’s doting to do as he pleased, had mediocre talent, yet dreamt of being invincible... The two figures gradually overlapped, causing Ji Chenyu’s delicate body to tremble.

”Is this really Shen Nian...?”

”A single word can determine the life or death of a Holy Land, like an Emperor descending...”

”Should I give him a chance...?” This thought suddenly popped into Ji Chenyu’s mind.

Previously, she had looked down on Shen Nian’s talent, believing that he merely had a good family background. How could such a good-for-nothing be worthy of her?

But now, it seemed a bit different!

The current Shen Nian now had the qualifications to be her husband.

”Hmm, then I’ll go and see. If he’s still as genuinely good to me as before, then I’ll give him a chance this time...” Ji Chenyu decided in her heart. When she was studying at the academy, Shen Nian was very good to her, but she had always been unmoved.

The next second.

Ji Chenyu withdrew her gaze and said casually, ”Old Ancestor, let’s go.”

The Ji Family Old Ancestor smiled and nodded, putting away the crystal ball. Their figures quickly disappeared within the Ji Family territory.

Not long after they left.

A figure appeared at their former location and sighed.

”Alas~”

”How did Chenyu become like this, only seeing what benefits her...?” Ji Hao looked in the direction they had left, a hint of disappointment in his eyes and a trace of self-reproach in his heart.

No one knows a daughter better than her father. How could he not see that Ji Chenyu immediately changed her mind after seeing Shen Nian display his prowess?

For so many years, he had long seen that Ji Chenyu looked down on Shen Nian from the bottom of her heart, but he never said anything. He had tried many ways to remind Ji Chenyu, hoping she would understand, but now it seemed she hadn’t understood at all.

Admiration for the strong is human nature.

But what we Cultivators cherish most is an unwavering original heart.

He actually preferred Ji Chenyu to remain as she was, no matter how strong Shen Nian became, she would still wholeheartedly pursue the Dao. If she didn’t want to marry because she didn’t disdain Shen Nian’s talent, he would feel better. If that were the case, Ji Hao would definitely dissolve the engagement at an appropriate time, even if all the Ji Family Old Ancestors objected.

But now... this made Ji Hao feel a pang of sorrow.

When did his daughter become like this?

Immediately, he glanced at the horizon again, thought of Ji Aotian, and a hint of relief appeared in his eyes.

”A bit silly, but...”

At the same time.

A shocking piece of news was sweeping through the entire Five Regions of the Human Race: the youngest Human Emperor in history had appeared, with a single word he abolished Ancestor Fentian Yan Wushuang, and Fentian Holy Lord Zuo Wuhen knelt and acknowledged him as his master... The entire Five Domains was shaken!

”Damn, he’s so fierce! Good thing I ran fast back then!” Tuoba Qiong, who was still in Eastern Profound planning to attend the ceremony, secretly congratulated himself on his decision after hearing the news.

At the same time, he began to anticipate whether there would be a shocking battle at the Young Clan Master of the Shen Family’s Coming-of-Age Ceremony tomorrow...!

Eastern Profound Domain, Canglan City.

In an aerial pavilion, surrounded by stars.

”Tsk tsk tsk, incredible. It seems Younger Brother Nian received more benefits in the ancestral land than all of us. He might have even crossed the Cangtian Sea...” Shen Ye rubbed his head and clicked his tongue, saying with a shocked expression in his eyes.

Shen Wudao didn’t speak, but a hint of Battle Intent emanated from his eyes as he muttered to himself in his heart.

”Younger Brother Nian, only a you like this is worthy of a fair fight with your cousin!”

”If I lose,”

”From then on, I will be the sharpest blade in your hand, repaying your kindness for that meal back then...”

Outside the pavilion, the Shen Family Disciples were shaken.

”Holy crap, Young Clan Leader is actually so fierce!!”

”I love it, I love it! From now on, I’m a loyal fan of Young Clan Leader, and no one can stop me!”

”Young Clan Leader doesn’t seem to have many personal maids, I might still have a chance...”

Those Shen Family Clan Elders looked at each other, all with eyes full of shock, and at the same time, a strong sense of pride in their hearts. In the past, when they chatted and competed with their friends outside, they were embarrassed to boast about how great their Young Clan Leader was, but today, they inexplicably felt a sense of pride in their hearts.

”Silence!”

”Quickly, get back to your duties! Tomorrow is Young Clan Leader’s Coming-of-Age Ceremony. Anyone who messes up at this time will be dealt with according to clan rules!”

A majestic voice resounded, and everyone immediately quieted down.

The Grand Elder of the Shen Family stood in mid-air, hands clasped behind his back.

Just by looking at him, everyone could feel the intense pressure. Among everyone in the Shen Family, if one were to ask who they feared most, it would be Grand Elder Shen Yang, who was in charge of clan rules and punishments.

Everyone retreated, beginning to busy themselves with preparations for Shen Nian’s Coming-of-Age Ceremony tomorrow.

In mid-air.

Shen Yang’s face was solemn. Only after everyone dispersed did his brow slightly relax. He then looked towards the sky and softly murmured, ”Heaven bless my Shen Family. I only hope Young Clan Leader does not follow in his father’s footsteps...”
