Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2461: Chapter 43: The Immortal Clan Surrenders! Hua Rui’s Azure Dragon Corps

She knew that there were some elders in the family who actually had decent aptitude. If their resources kept up, it was entirely possible for them to break through to mid-Transcendent Void Realm, or even advanced stage. But now, for the sake of the family, those elders had almost all halted their cultivation, using only the minimal resources to maintain their cultivation base.

They were using their future to exchange for the future of the younger generation.

As one of the sheltered juniors and beneficiaries, what right did she have to blame those elders?

In the end, it was still because the Jiang’s were too weak, that they had to resort to this humble method of seeking protection from others.

She did not resent the family, only hated her own lack of ability.

Coming here this time, she was also willing.

Compared to marrying into a prominent family and living by watching others’ faces, being a maid for Young Master Shouzhe might not be a worse choice.

Since it’s all about being subordinate to someone else, why not find a stronger person worth relying on?

Now the only question was whether Young Master Shouzhe would be willing to accept her. Even she herself did not have any confidence in her heart.

“It’s commendable that you can understand this.” Seeing Mu Xian say this, Immortal Monarch Haoran felt a wave of relief, yet couldn’t help but sigh again in his heart, “With your disposition, if you stayed in the family, you would surely be one of the mainstays in the future of the family. If there were another way, this old man would be reluctant to send you out.”

“However, this may not be a bad opportunity for you. Behave well later, and if you can really stay by Young Master Shouzhe’s side, whether as a concubine or just an ordinary maid, at least cultivation resources won’t be lacking. If luck is good, there might be even greater fortunes, which is better than wasting away in the family.”

While speaking, a soft cough from outside the door reminded them that Young Master Shouzhe had arrived.

The two quickly stopped their discussion and rose to greet him.

“Immortal Monarch Haoran.” Wang Shouzhe walked into the reception hall, with a smile on his face that felt like a spring breeze, “You’re a senior. If there’s anything, just summon Shouzhe to meet you, no need to come all this way.”

Yun Tiange followed closely behind Wang Shouzhe, looking the part of a humble maid.

Her eyes inadvertently glanced over Jiang Mu Xian, with a hint of a smile on her lips.

It seems the Immortal Clan Jiang can’t hold on.

Immortal Monarch Haoran quickly showed a look of being flattered, “How can this old man have the virtue and ability to dare call you, Young Master, to meet? Please don’t tease this old man.”

Although he also knew Young Master Shouzhe’s words were just polite, he still felt quite flattered.

One can only say that Young Master Shouzhe is indeed worthy of being born into a top family. His manners and ways are different from those “reckless” young people in the Sacred City.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, both parties took their seats.

Yun Tiange lifted her sleeves and gracefully began to brew tea for the guests. Seeing this, Jiang Mu Xian immediately stepped forward to help and displayed a clear willingness to depend on Yun Tiange.

Yun Tiange chuckled lightly, not being pretentious, slightly moved her position to let her in, and casually instructed her on how to brew Wu Dao Immortal Tea, talking in detail about the timing and key points.

Jiang Mu Xian did not dare to be careless, carefully remembered every word Yun Tiange said, earnestly learned every step, and attentively comprehended, without making a single mistake.

“Sister Mu Xian has good comprehension.” Yun Tiange praised softly.

“Thanks to sister Immortal Monarch’s attentive guidance,” Jiang Mu Xian hurriedly and bashfully lowered her hands modestly.

While they were getting along harmoniously, over there, Wang Shouzhe was casually chatting with Immortal Monarch Haoran, firmly refusing to steer the conversation towards the topic Immortal Monarch Haoran hoped for.

As time passed slowly, the increasingly uneasy Immortal Monarch Haoran finally couldn’t help but directly broach the topic: “Young Master Shouzhe, what do you think of our Mu Xian?”

“Immortal Mu Xian’s looks are extraordinary, and she is remarkably intelligent, certainly worthy of the bloodline of the Immortal Clan Jiang,” Wang Shouzhe praised, taking out a package of level fourteen fierce crocodile meat preserved and chilled, and gave it to Jiang Mu Xian, “A small gift for first meeting, don’t dislike it.”

This large package of crocodile meat weighed a full two thousand pounds. According to market price, it would start at six million immortal crystals, roughly equivalent to six top-quality spirit stones.

“This…”

Jiang Mu Xian hesitated for a moment, dared not to take it, and looked at her family’s Old Ancestor Haoran.

“This is…” Old Ancestor Haoran was startled, sensing the energy grade contained in the fierce beast meat, his face changed, “This fierce beast meat must be level fourteen, right? This item is precious, Mu Xian may not be able to accept it.”

“Why can’t she accept it?” Wang Shouzhe casually smiled, “It was recently hunted, and it doesn’t cost anything.”

“…”

Old Ancestor Haoran’s heart trembled, the expression on his face grew more respectful.

This was level fourteen fierce beast flesh, and Young Master Shouzhe unexpectedly spoke of hunting it so casually?

Old Ancestor Haoran had witnessed firsthand how ferocious level fourteen fierce beasts were. When he first entered the True Immortal Realm, he was young and daring, once keen on exploring and scavenging resources, only to accidentally encounter a level fourteen void fierce beast during a void exploration.

Just one hit from its tail, merely enduring one tail strike left him severely injured.

Back then it was truly a close call between life and death, he almost didn’t make it back.

Such fierce beasts are definitely not something Yun Tiange, who is just mid-True Immortal Realm, could hunt.

If Immortal Monarch Haoran were to encounter a level fourteen fierce beast, forget about hunting it, whether he could escape alive again would still be uncertain.
