Chapter 195 - Unprecedented And Never To Be Matched (1/2)
Everyone ate the roasted meat and started to talk about Jiang Wudi.
Daoya Old Man spoke the most. After all, he had the most experience and had lived for thousands of years.
The Jiang Clan was one of the most ancient clans, and Jiang Wudi was unfathomable. The highest ranking he had obtained in the World Millennium Duel was second place.
It was quite unfortunate that he had faced Xian Xianghua at her prime, resulting in him suffering a crushing defeat.
Putting aside Xian Xianghua and Yang Di, who were unparalleled in the world, Jiang Wudi was as powerful as a deity.
The Jiang Clan was behind the rise of each Empire to some degree, and within the Eight Sanctums, there were many disciples from the Jiang Clan. It could be said that the Jiang Clan had permeated every corner of the human race.
“Doesn’t matter, he’s looking for the crazy old woman, so we’ll just leave after doing what we need to do,” Beixiao Wangjian said without care. They now knew why the crazy old woman had abandoned Jiang Xue; it was to protect her.
However, what about her debt?
If it wasn’t for the fact that the crazy old woman owed money, Jiang Xue and Zhou Xuanji would not have become homeless and miserable.
Zhou Xuanji looked at Jiang Xue next to him, who had her arms wrapped around her legs, completely silent.
He asked, “Do you want to find your grandma? After this is over, I can bring you to look for her.”
Jiang Xue shook her head, “It’s alright. Perhaps if I go to find her, I’ll become a burden to her instead.”
If she wasn’t a burden, why would she be abandoned?
There was another possibility, which was that her grandma was already dead.
No matter what the reason was, she decided not to pursue the matter.
“That’s right, everyone has their own path. The gratitude and grudges between your grandma and the Jiang Clan should end with your father and mother’s generation. You have your own life,” Daoya Old Man said as he smiled and stroked his beard. He then paused before saying with seemingly deep intention, “Cultivate well with Xuanji. When he becomes the most powerful in the world, you can support your grandma.”
Jiang Xue nodded and said with high spirits, “I also want to enter the Northern Wilderness’ Top 100. I want to be number two in the world and suppress Jiang Wudi!”
Zhou Xuanji laughed, “Great, I’ll be number one and you’ll be number two.”
This girl had grown up; her heart was much stronger than he had expected.
“Since it’s like that, then I’ll be number three and push Jiang Wudi down even more!” Xiao Jinghong said, full of mettle. He believed that he could do it.
The others laughed loudly.
“I’ll be number four and become the sovereign of the demon race!”
“Pshaw, I want to be number three!”
“I won’t fight with you, I’ll be happy with number five.”
“What gives? Number five is mine!”
“Forget it. You? Don’t even think about entering the Northern Wilderness’ Top 100 in this lifetime.”
Watching everyone banter with each other, the red Qilin tilted its head, its big, watery eyes filled with wonder.
After everyone finished eating the tiger demon’s meat, Zhou Xuanji clapped his hands and got up as he said, “Alright, time to get moving.”
They were not Jiang Wudi’s target, and their target was not Jiang Wudi either.
Emperor Yan of Zhou’s ascension was their target right now!
Under the blue sky, within the Great Zhou’s Royal City, a massive, 1,000-foot wide stone stage was floating in the sky.
Soldiers flew up and down, setting up an altar and flags, as well as a banquet for guests.
This stage was called the Ascension Stage.
Emperor Yan of Zhou would ascend here, and Zhou Yalong would ascend to the throne as well.
The various streets of the Royal City were completely inundated with people and all the inns were completely full.
Countless red lanterns hung in the streets, and joyous voices could be heard everywhere. There were many children running about within the sea of people.
