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

267: Eat quickly, so you can get going.Jiang Churan froze for a moment and turned her head to look, only to see Shen Nian already sitting at a simple, archaic round wooden table in the sleeping quarters.

”Go prepare some food.”

Mu Wanqing, who was nearby, nodded quickly and left respectfully.

A moment later.

The table was filled with dozens of delicacies, each meticulously prepared by the Shen Family chefs, with visions continuously manifesting above them.

”Wow, this is so delicious!”

”So good, so good!”

”Senior Brother...”

”Why did you suddenly give me so much delicious food?”

Jiang Churan asked while stuffing her face with the delicacies, looking at the young man sitting upright beside her.

”I promised you earlier that once you stepped into the Return to Void realm, I would let you eat...” Shen Nian glanced at her from the corner of his eye and said softly.

”Oh, oh, oh...” Jiang Churan nodded and buried her head back into her food, though a strange glint flashed in her eyes.

”Senior Brother, why don’t you let me go back to the Jiang Family for a visit...”

”I haven’t been back in a long time; I’ve almost forgotten what it looks like...”

Jiang Churan knew that Shen Nian’s words earlier had offended the Jiang Family, and she wasn’t foolish enough not to know who he did it for.

There was no need for Shen Nian to reject the goodwill of a powerful Clan Chief from an Ancient Desolate Families.

This made her feel a hint of guilt.

”Alright, don’t overthink it. Even without you, I would still do it.”

”Eat quickly, time to hit the road.”

Shen Nian lifted his wine cup, drained it in one gulp, and said softly.

”Hit the road? ( * ﾟ 0 ﾟ )” Jiang Churan was stunned instantly.

Huh?

Is this a last meal for a condemned prisoner?

Shen Nian was speechless at her expression and immediately said, ”We’ll head to the Great Evolution Holy Land in a moment. You should try to comprehend the Nine Swords as well.”

If Jiang Churan succeeded in comprehending it, he should also receive a reward.

It was the perfect opportunity to bring her along and earn more preaching value.

”Huh?” Jiang Churan was somewhat surprised; she hadn’t expected Shen Nian to take her along.

”Go!”

”You must go!”

”The Great Evolution Nine Swords is something special. Learning more powerful sword Divine Ability will be of great benefit to the improvement of your Indestructible Sword Body,” the Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit exclaimed within her Divine Soul, though his gaze was fixed on Shen Nian.

How on earth did he manage to comprehend the first move of the Nine Tribulations Sword Art so quickly!

No!

Must find out!

Mu Wanqing, who had been standing behind Shen Nian all this time, asked softly, ”Master, should I go back and pack...”

She felt that since Shen Nian was going to the Great Evolution Holy Land to comprehend the sword, it would inevitably take quite some time. How could he manage without someone to serve him!

”No need.”

”It won’t take long,” Shen Nian said casually, his expression indifferent.

He had previously worried that his preaching value might not be enough to comprehend all of the Great Evolution Nine Swords, but now that he had the Nine Aperture Lapis Lazuli Sword Heart, it would be much simpler.

”( ⊙ o ⊙ ) ...” Mu Wanqing couldn’t help but freeze for a moment.

Time flew by, and half an incense stick of time passed.

”Senior Brother, I beg you, let me eat a little more!”

”Really, just one bite!”

Jiang Churan pleaded bitterly, looking pitiful.

Shen Nian glanced at her round little belly, his eyelids twitching as he said, ”Are you a camel?”

”Camel meat is fine too!”

”...”

The next second, Shen Nian picked her up and stepped directly onto the Shen Family’s World-Breaking Divine Boat, which had been prepared outside for some time.

At the same time Shen Nian left, after respectfully seeing him off, Shen Yang moved and arrived at the ancestral grounds of the Shen Family.

”Old Ancestor, I feel there is something wrong with the Jiang Family,” Shen Yang said, cupping his hands.

He felt that the Jiang Family was becoming increasingly strange. In the past, even if the Jiang Family had an arrogant nature, they were extremely respectful when facing the Shen Family. However, in recent years, fewer and fewer people from the Jiang Family had left their realm, and their attitude toward the Shen Family was gradually changing, starting to look at them as equals.

Especially this time, for Shen Nian’s coming-of-age ceremony, the Jiang Family had intentionally arrived late, and only after seeing Shen Nian’s talent did they go and exchange for a hengyu pill to present as a gift. He had actually known about these situations all along.

Most importantly, even after seeing Shen Nian’s talent, the Jiang Family Clan Chief still made no extra moves, and on the faces of Jiang Yanxiao and the other, he only saw shock, but not a shred of fear.

What on earth gave them such confidence!

Shen Min was currently researching how to compress other Dao-Harmonizing Divine Talismans into the Return to Void level for Shen Nian to study. Hearing Shen Yang’s words, he said absentmindedly, ”The Jiang Family has no problem; the problem lies with that Divine Son who has been hiding in the Jiang Family’s Hengyu Realm all along.”

”The Jiang Family Divine Son?” Shen Yang frowned slightly, unable to help but think of the number one Body Cultivator of the younger generation who had been famous throughout the Five Domains for many years.

Fourth on the Heaven Ranking, Jiang Family Divine Son, Jiang Huang!

This person was also hailed as the most mysterious Prodigy of the Human Race. He was almost never seen, and had never been to the Heaven Abyss, so there was very little information about him.

But to be ranked fourth on the Heaven Ranking and to suppress the current generation of the Shen Family’s sequence, besides the fact that Jiang Huang had Cultivate for several decades longer than Shen Wudao and the others, it was because he possessed a highly-ranked Divine Body, which no one had ever been able to identify.

There were also rumors that the reason he was ranked fourth on the Heaven Ranking was because he had attacked so few times—so few that the younger generation of the Human Race had almost forgotten his existence...

”Old Ancestor, what is the problem with the Jiang Family Divine Son?” Shen Yang couldn’t help but ask. He had come to see Old Ancestor Shen Min this time precisely to voice his doubts.

Shen Min picked up a sheet of rice paper and used a brush to continuously draw ancient symbols on it, saying casually, ”Just an old thing that should be dead but doesn’t want to die, completely without a bottom line. Go do your work.”

”I don’t care what the Jiang Family does, but if that old thing dares to overreach and do something he shouldn’t...”

Speaking of this, a hint of coldness appeared in Shen Min’s eyes.

”I will let him know that the Shen Family of the past could suppress him until he couldn’t breathe, and can do the same now.”

At the same time.

Inside the Jiang Family Ancient Realm.

On both sides of the magnificent hall, terrifying auras stood tall, emitting boundless power of blood Qi. In particular, their skin was a brilliant gold, and their figures were all two meters tall, making them look like ancient gods and demons.

”Clan Chief, you know my explosive temper. I was furious at the time and cursed the Shen Family. That Shen Nian is actually so ungrateful!”

”Relying on a bit of talent, he actually dares to disregard my Jiang Family!”

”Hmph, if he had seen the Divine Might of the Divine Son, he would know that there is a heaven beyond heaven!”

Jiang Yanxiao knelt on one knee on the ground, veins bulging on his forehead, gritting his teeth as he spoke, as if he wished he could grind Shen Nian into dust.

Although in reality, he had tucked his tail between his legs and left directly with the hengyu pill, knowing the temperament of the Jiang Family, how could he dare to tell the truth?

Otherwise, he was afraid he would be the first one they cut down upon returning!

”Yes, yes, yes, I am the same as my brother!” Jiang Yanji nodded heavily.

After they finished speaking, angry voices resounded from both sides.

”Hmph!”

”Yellow-mouthed brat! If he wasn’t born into the Shen Family, he wouldn’t even have the qualifications to see our clan. To dare to provoke our clan like this—I don’t know how Shen Min taught him!”
