Hua Mengyou and her junior brother Li Fei would also go with them.
it was no wonder that they had such a strong reaction.
It had to be known that the Jiang family and the Bai family could be said to be the top Violet Palace Immortal Families in the cultivation world of Liang Nation.
They both had two or more late-stage Violet Palace cultivators.
Especially the Bai family.
Their ancestor, Bai Mingshan, was already a ninth level Violet Palace cultivator a hundred years ago.
Now that a hundred years had passed, no one knew what realm his cultivation had reached.
Other than Bai Mingshan, there was another cultivation genius in the Bai family. He was rhe white-haired young man they had seen at the Jade Water Market Auction that day. His name was Bai Yuanchen, who had reached the seventh level of the Violet Palace.
After so many years, it was clearly unlikely for his cultivation to not have advanced at all.
Lastly, there was Hua Mengyou and her junior brother, Li Fei.
The two of them were also at the late-stage of the Violet Palace.
In that case, including the couple, there would be a total of six late-stage Violet Palace cultivators guarding the Ancient Origin City.
One had to know that the late-stage Violet Palace cultivators weren’t some small shots.
What was so special about Ancient Origin City that it actually required so many late-stage Violet Palace cultivators to guard it together?
At this thought, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan couldn’t help but look at each other.
Then, the two of them did not hide anything and roughly told everyone what they had just received.
When everyone heard that, their reaction was almost the same as Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyans. They couldn’t help but look shocked.
Jiang Renyi said, “Granduncle, could there be something especially important in Ancient Origin City, or does it have some special strategic significance?”
Jiang Chengxuan shook his head and said, “It’s hard to say for the time being. We’ll naturally know the exact situation when we get there.
Now, let’s discuss who will go with us and who will stay behind to rake care of the family.”
As soon as he finished speaking, many people immediately stepped forward and expressed their willingness to follow Jiang Chengxuan and the others to Ancient Origin City.
Among them were the family head, Jiang Renyi, the Supreme Elder, Jiang Rendao, and Liu Linglong.
Jiang Chengxuan took a look and raised his hand to point at a few people. He ordered them to stay behind and be in charge of guarding the family.
They were all relatively young people who had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment.
There were also a few people who were not good at fighting and were mainly in charge of refining pills and weapons.
Finally, Jiang Chengxuan looked at Liu Linglong and said,
“Linglong, you can also stay in the family and help keep things in order.”
This made Liu Linglong’s expression change slightly.
However, before she could speak, Jiang Chengxuan continued,
“I’ve already made up my mind.
The significance of your task is not inferior to ours by any means.
During our absence, the safety and maintenance of the entire family will depend on you alone. I hope you won’t disappoint us.”
In fact.
He made the decision to let Liu Linglong stay after careful considerations.
First of all, he and Shen Ruyan had to go to the front line.
According to the requirements, out of Jiang Rendao and Liu Linglong, one had to go with them.
Jiang Rendao was good at fighting, but he was not good at managing.
It was obviously not very suitable for him to stay behind.
As such, Liu Linglong, who was good at managing and maintaining the daily affairs of the family, was naturally the most suitable to stay behind.
As for why he didn’t let the family head, Jiang Renyi, stay, the reason was very simple.
After they went to Ancient Origin City, they needed someone who could command low-level cultivators.
And in the entire Jiang family, there was no one more suitable than Jiang Renyi.
Soon, the entire Jiang family took action.
A few days later.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Jiang Rendao, Jiang Renyi, and the other elders of the Jiang family led hundreds of Qi Refinement members to Ancient Origin City on several Level 3 treasure ships.
This time, the Jiang family mobilized three Violet Palace cultivators, 15 Foundation Establishment cultivators, and hundreds of Qi Refinement cultivators.
When they arrived at Ancient Origin City and saw the tail city wall, many Qi Refinement cultivators of the Jiang family could not help but reveal shocked expressions.
Obviously, they had never seen such a majestic city wall.
“Who are you? Stop!”
At this moment, several voices suddenly sounded from Ancient Origin City.
They were all cultivators in charge of guarding this place.
Jiang Chengxuan, who was at the bow, threw out a token and it landed in the hand of a middle-aged cultivator.
The middle-aged cultivator took the token and looked at it carefully. His expression immediately changed and he hurriedly bowed to Jiang Chengxuan.
“So it’s Senior Jiang Chengxuan from the Jiang family. If we offended you just now, I hope you won’t take it to heart.
Hurry up!
They are Senior Jiang and the fellow Daoists of the Jiang family.
Quickly lift the array!”
The middle-aged cultivator hurriedly ordered the people around him to lift the city-protecting array.
Then, Jiang Chengxuan gave the order to continue driving the ship into Ancient Origin City.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The moment Jiang Chengxuan and the others entered Ancient Origin City, several streaks of light flew over from afar.
When those streaks of light approached, everyone saw that they were Violet Palace cultivators.
The one in the lead was Jiang Chengxuan’s acquaintance, Hua Mengyou,
There were three people beside her at this moment.
One of them was Bai Yuanchen, whom they had seen at the Jade Water Market Auction that day.
On Hua Mengyou’s left was an old man with a powerful aura, who should be the Bai family’s ancestor, Bai Mingshan.
As for the beautiful woman in her twenties, she should be a Violet Palace cultivator of the Bai family.
At this moment, the Bai family was sizing up Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
Hua Mengyou smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist Jiang, and Fellow Daoist Shen, you’re finally here.
Come, let me introduce you first.”
As she spoke, Hua Mengyou pointed at the three people beside her.
“They are the ancestor of the Bai family, Bai Mingshan, the current head of the Bai family, Bai Yuanchen, and Bai Zixuan.
They will be in charge of guarding this Ancient Origin City together with us.”
Soon, Hua Mengyou introduced both sides in detail.
It was obvious that both Bai Mingshan and Bai Yuanchen were rather polite to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Only Bai Zixuan seemed to be a little arrogant. Although her attitude was not cold, it was definitely not warm.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Hua Mengyou could all tell this.
In order to avoid embarrassment, Hua Mengyou immediately smiled and tried to smooth things over.
“By the way, let’s not just stand here. Hurry up and come in.”
As she spoke, she had already called over a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Jade Water Sword Pavilion and asked him to arrange a place to stay for Jiang Renyi and the other Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Jiang family.
She led Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Jiang Rendao, and the Bai family to the meeting hall.
“By the way, where is Fellow Daoist Li Fei from your sect?”
On the way, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but ask Hua Mengyou.
“Junior Brother Li Fei…”
Hua Mengyou smiled and said, “He still had some things to deal with in the sect, so he didn’t come with me.
However, I think he should be here soon.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a sword light suddenly sped over from the distant sky.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Jiang Rendao, and the Bai family members all turned around.
Hua Mengyou smiled and said, “What a coincidence. I was just talking about Junior Brother Li Fei when he came over.”
Soon, the sword light flew into Ancient Origin City, revealing a young man in a long robe.
It was Li Fei.
“Senior Sister Hua.”
He first greeted Flua Mengyou before turning around and nodding at Jiang Chengxuan and the Bai family members..
