Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Beginning

How could the Wang Family possibly know about Jiang Daoxu’s condition?

In recent years, Jiang Daoxu had never made a move and had always been in seclusion for recuperation in the Qiankun Small World.

Logically speaking, outsiders shouldn’t have known about this matter.

”How did you find out?” an Elder of the Jiang Family replied in a deep voice.

Previously, their attitude towards the Wang Family had been somewhat polite.

But now, it had turned a bit cold and hard.

The Wang Family’s Quasi-Supreme Venerable smiled faintly and shook his head, saying, ”That’s not important. What’s important is that our Wang Family is sincere and can help Jiang Daoxu recover his health.”

”What?”

Hearing this, the faces of all the Jiang Clan Elders changed slightly.

They no longer needed to hide anything, as the Wang Family already knew the situation.

But if the Wang Family could truly save Jiang Daoxu, it would undoubtedly be a great favor.

After all, if a Supreme Venerable falls, the impact and loss for an Ancient Desolate Family like the Jiang Family would be enormous.

”Oh, does the Wang Family have a way to restore this old man’s health?”

At this moment, an aged figure directly tore through the void, appearing. It was precisely Jiang Daoxu.

And at the back of the family grounds, Jiang Rou, Jun Xiaoyao, and a group of others also rushed over.

A decaying aura permeated from Jiang Daoxu.

Yet the pressure belonging to a Supreme Venerable remained, causing the expression of the Wang Family’s Quasi-Supreme Venerable to fixate slightly.

Jiang Daoxu was a renowned top-tier expert of the Desolate Celestial Immortal Realm.

Even though he hadn’t made a move in recent years, his residual might lingered on.

”Hehe, for such a powerful figure as Elder Jiang to fall so quietly would indeed be a pity.”

”Our Wang Family is willing to exchange a Nine Marvels Reincarnation Immortal Grass for the marriage alliance between the Jiang Family Divine Maiden and our Young Emperor of the Wang Family.”

The words of the Wang Family’s Quasi-Supreme Venerable caused all Jiang Clan Members present to show a hint of shock.

Jun Xiaoyao’s face also flashed with a strange expression.

That Young Emperor of the Wang Family intended to set his sights on Jiang Shengyi?

Jun Xiaoyao’s eyes narrowed, with a glint of coldness flashing in them.

And the Nine Marvels Reincarnation Immortal Grass, Jun Xiaoyao had also heard of it.

It’s an extremely rare Immortality Medicine, considered top-tier even among Immortality Medicines.

This Nine Marvels Reincarnation Immortal Grass is rumored to completely renew a person, eliminating all ailments, hidden injuries, and flaws, purifying the flesh body and primordial spirit, allowing one to reach an almost perfect realm.

Of course, perhaps because its effects were too heaven-defying.

From ancient times to the present, there have been very few such plants.

Looking across the Desolate Celestial Immortal Realm, it’s estimated that not one or two plants could be found.

If this medicine could be easily obtained, the Jiang Family would have acquired it for Jiang Daoxu a long time ago.

It’s even rumored that such medicine only appeared in perilous places like the Ancient Burial Land.

The fact that the Wang Family had a Nine Marvels Reincarnation Immortal Grass was quite unexpected.

Seemingly afraid that the Jiang Family wouldn’t believe it, the Wang Family’s Quasi-Supreme Venerable waved his hand.

A plant appeared in his hand.

This plant had seven leaves, each a different color.

A rich vitality circulated around it, exuding an intensely fragrant aroma.

Just smelling that scent gave one a feeling akin to ascending.

”It truly is the Nine Marvels Reincarnation Immortal Grass!” The pupils of the Jiang Clan Elders quivered slightly.

The Wang Family was actually willing to present such a top-tier Immortality Medicine, which was unexpected by all.

”So, how about it? Doesn’t our Wang Family show enough sincerity by using this Nine Marvels Reincarnation Immortal Grass as a bride price?”

”Moreover, our Young Emperor of the Wang Family is definitely a suitable match for your Jiang Family Divine Maiden. Elder Jiang can also regain his health. Why not pursue such a mutually beneficial matter?”

The words of the Wang Family’s Quasi-Supreme Venerable caused some of the Jiang Clan Elders present to feel a slight temptation.

Indeed, there’s never been any grievance between the Jiang Family and the Wang Family.

An alliance wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing.

And for the Jiang Family, it would be beneficial.

Not to mention the benefits of the alliance, at least Jiang Daoxu would have a chance of recovery.

Saving a Supreme Venerable is also of great importance for the Jiang Family.

The only thing left to see now is Jiang Shengyi’s attitude.

At this moment, Jiang Shengyi bit her red lips lightly, her picturesque Immortal Beauty face showing a slight pallor.

She never expected that the Wang Family was targeting her.

And they wanted her to marry the Young Emperor of the Wang Family.

To be honest, the fame of the Young Emperor of the Wang Family was something Jiang Shengyi had naturally heard of.

But so what?

Jiang Shengyi’s heart was already occupied by a certain figure, so how could it accommodate another?

But if she disagrees, Jiang Daoxu won’t be saved.

From the family’s perspective, Jiang Shengyi should agree.

Jiang Rou’s expression also became somewhat tense.

After all, there was now a possibility for Jiang Daoxu’s recovery.

However, Jiang Rou did not speak out to ask Jiang Shengyi to agree.

Such matters were indeed somewhat unfair to Jiang Shengyi.

Many Jiang Family members present looked at Jiang Shengyi, waiting for her decision.

”Sister Shengyi...” Jiang Luoli’s small face showed a hint of worry.

She was unaware of the misunderstandings that had occurred between Jiang Shengyi and Jun Xiaoyao.

But she didn’t want Jiang Shengyi to sacrifice her own happiness.

However, Hua Yuanxiu, eyes shimmering slightly, spoke, ”The Young Emperor of the Wang Family is also a hero among men. If the Divine Maiden were to marry him, it wouldn’t be a grievance to her. Plus, you’d obtain the Nine Marvels Reincarnation Immortal Grass, saving the Supreme Elder. Why not pursue such a matter?”

Hua Yuanxiu’s words received some acknowledgment from the Jiang Clan Members.

Indeed, if she were to marry any Tom, Dick, or Harry, it would be a grievance to Jiang Shengyi.

But the Young Emperor of the Wang Family wasn’t just any Tom, Dick, or Harry.

On the contrary, he was among the most renowned, strongest, and most prestigious Young Venerables in the entire Desolate Celestial Immortal Realm.

Marrying the Young Emperor of the Wang Family wouldn’t be considered dishonoring Jiang Shengyi.

”To have a marriage alliance with our Young Emperor of the Wang Family is your good fortune. Does such a good matter even need consideration?” the Quasi-Supreme Venerable of the Wang Family said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shengyi clenched her jade hands tightly.

The corner of her eye couldn’t help but glance at Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao stood with his hands behind his back, his face calm and unruffled, without any expression.

This brought a sting to Jiang Shengyi’s heart.

Does Jun Xiaoyao not care at all?

Reflecting on that absurd moment, Jiang Shengyi felt even more as if her heart was being torn apart.

Perhaps such feelings should never have occurred in the first place.

”I... I agree,” Jiang Shengyi spoke with difficulty, a self-deprecating smile appearing on her lips.

Hearing this response, a faint sigh came from the hearts of the Jiang Family members present.

They could clearly see the reluctant and unwilling expression on Jiang Shengyi’s face.

The Wang Family’s Quasi-Supreme Venerable nodded slightly, caring little for whether Jiang Shengyi genuinely wanted to or not, as long as she agreed.

The primary reason the Young Emperor of the Wang Family wanted to marry Jiang Shengyi was to leverage her Innate Dao Embryo to reach a higher level.

As for such extravagant things as feelings, it didn’t matter whether they existed or not.

Just then, a voice sounded faintly.

”Sister Shengyi, is this truly your wish?”

Upon hearing these words, Jiang Shengyi’s delicate body trembled abruptly.

Some crystalline gleam flashed in her beautiful eyes.

She turned her face to look at Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao’s gaze also turned to Jiang Shengyi.

The two locked eyes, gaze interwoven.

”If this is truly what Sister Shengyi wishes, I won’t say another word.”

Jun Xiaoyao paused, his tone flat yet imbued with a hint of dominance.

”But if not, then even if the Northern Wang Family or whomever came, they won’t take you away!”
