12 Betrothal (1/2)

Jiang Chen guided all his clansmen to a strict regimen of training. Jiang Chen main target was to improve their Heavenly energy control under the guidance of Jiang Chen it took them less than a month to find the heavenly energy strands in the surroundings once they were able to find the other things went smoothly.

They were smoothly able to absorb the heavenly strands as they already has experience on energy absorption. Jiang Chen intentionally made them rotate the heavenly energy in their meridians just like what he did ,he didn't know whether it was correct procedure or not but he knew it was his closest to the best method .

What Jiang Chen planned as a one month camp already extended for two months. They didn't practice any martial techniques or increased their cultivation in this two months but they broadened the way they cultivate. This new method of heavenly strands as reference signified how much different their way of cultivation is from others.

They practiced revolving the heavenly strands almost every minute. As it does not require one to cultivate in particular so they practiced revolving heavenly strands almost every time. Few of them made a considerable progress and can both absorb and revolve energy at the same time. All of them attained a significant progress in the objectives of the camp.

Jiang Chen was more impressed with his younger sister Jiang Bing she first to be able to reach in simultaneous revolution and absorption. Jiang Chen allowed her to cultivate and gave her a suitable training model suiting to her. He even personally taught her how to use her palm techniques and hersword skills. All are common grade techniques. Common grade techniques only use heavenly energy and no attribute energy, they help body refiners to build foundation for practicing their martial techniques.

Slowly the training camp extended for a month and all of them made significant improvement all their cultivation increased by a grade in this period.

By observing all of them and asking them repeated questions Jiang Chen got answer to few of his doubts.

The limit to no. of strands absorbed in Body Refining stage is 90000 not 108000 as he expected.Only he possessed extra no. of strands. Then about the reserves on Attribute energy he gained new data it would be useful.

Normal reserves of attribute energy of a person are 54000 strands and they increase by 5000 strands with each stage rise. The speed of recoveringattribute energy is depended on their level of absorbing energy.

Each of the Jiang Family member got a close combat technique and a weapon technique of common rank . Sixth uncle and Seventh uncle who were watching over them were surprised at first at this new method of training but seeing the results they realized how much difference in it was. All the common rank techniques Jiang Chen gave them have relation with the martial techniques ofJiang Clan. So Jiang Chen was guiding them in a strict regimen selecting the best possible options for them.

After three months when they reached city gates there are three more Martial Disciples among them making the total count of 6 martial disciples three of them are in 1st stage while both Jiang Lingyue and Bingyue were in second stage. All of them got a strict warning on not to disclose the training to any one, they are only supposed to speak of Martial techniques given to them.

When all of them reached their home they were surprised to find large number of people gathered there. They were from Shangguan family. Jiang Chen was surprised to see them. As the people from Shangguan family saw Jiang Chen there was a huge commotion.

Only after entering inside did he get to know what was the commotion about. Jiang Family got a proposal from Shangguan family to betroth Shangguan Ning'er to Jiang Chen.

All the members of Jiang Clan gathered in the main hall to discuss the events of three months.

Sixth uncle and Seventh uncle explained about the three months training and progress each of the

Jiang Chen ”Why did they come up with such an idea?” Jiang Chen was puzzled at first.

Jiang Yue smugly smiled ”Well we accepted the Su clan's proposal first betrothed you to their Daughter Su Ming.”

Jiang Chen thought for a while that was expected and made some sense Su Ming is second daughter of Su family patriarch with lower earth cultivation technique and was a genius of their clan but she is fire attribute cultivator. She has affinity for fire instead of earth as other Su family cultivators.

It was already expected that Su family will approach Jiang family for her sake to get her fire martial techniques , Su family went a step ahead and asked to match Jiang Chen and Su Ming and Jiang Yue accepted it. It made sense as fire attribute cultivator she is best fit in Jiang family.

Jiang Yun ”With Su Ming betrothed to Jiang Family, Bai faction went little ahead in the race. So counter weight us going more closer to the Bai faction. City lord faction sent Shangguan family to this arrangement they know that after your performance that day your talent is no less than Bai Mo'sbut more than Bai Mo so they can only use one of the twins as your bride to prevent you from siding any side.” Jiang Yun explained .

Jiang Chen ”So now I am betrothed to two beauties of river spring city.” Jiang Chen smirked it was just a little over his expectation.

Others from Jiang Younger generation started congratulating Jiang Chen.
