Chapter 56: Meet ancestors

Chapter 56: Meet ancestors The old man felt anxious as he listened to the entire story from the man in black, including the firsthand experience with Jiang Yun. He couldn't help but wonder what Jiang Yun intended to do next.

"A top-level Celestial Immortal at just 20 years old... and he possesses and utilizes techniques never seen before."

The old man murmured as he contemplated, "But... does he remember what happened in the past?"

One of the men in black hesitated before answering softly, "He probably remembers now, sir."

This response only heightened the old man's concern. He looked at the men in black in silence before sighing and muttering to himself.

"This issue must be handled properly. Otherwise, instead of having another Celestial Immortal in the Jiang family, we might end up with the strongest Celestial Immortal enemy instead..."

The men in black listened in respectful silence. After a moment of contemplation, the old man issued a firm command.

"Send someone to contact Wei Ning and recall Jiang Hao immediately. Also, send for Ancestor No. 13 and Ancestor No. 107. We must be prepared."

"Understood, sir!" The men in black responded in unison before dispersing to carry out their tasks, leaving the old man with his heavy thoughts.

As the old man glanced toward the scripture pavilion, he knew that his decisions at this moment could either greatly benefit or severely impact the future of the Jiang family. He issued an additional order to the remaining men in black.

"Stay outside and ensure no one approaches the pavilion during this time."

"Yes, Elder," the men in black said in unison before standing guard outside the pavilion with determination.

Once everything was set, the old man vanished into the formation Jiang Yun had created within the pavilion.

Inside the scripture pavilion, Jiang Yun stood silently in front of a shelf of ancient scrolls, sensing the old man's presence. He did not even turn to look. The old man felt the heavy atmosphere emanating from the young man and walked through the time formations Jiang Yun had set up. As he stepped inside, he murmured in surprise.

"Time flows a million times faster... yet it doesn't affect lifespan at all... what kind of formation is this?"

The old man thought to himself, "I can only hope this matter ends well."

He looked at Jiang Yun, who was amidst a multitude of ancient scrolls, reading attentively with an expression of calmness, as if completely ignoring the old man's presence.

"What do you plan to do next?" the old man asked coldly.

Jiang Yun smiled slightly and responded with a frosty tone, "I'm simply reading."

The tension in the air was palpable, like a storm about to erupt.

"Young man, do you remember your childhood?" the old man asked in a neutral tone.

Jiang Yun paused his reading and smiled faintly. "I remember... It has always lingered in my mind. The memories sealed away have been restored. Every action you took against me back then is still as clear as ever."

The old man was silent for a moment, realizing that this situation would not end as easily as he had hoped. He understood Jiang Yun's feelings well and sighed softly before speaking.

"Is there anything we can do to make amends? If there is anything that would make you forgive us..."

Jiang Yun did not respond immediately. He picked up the next book from the shelf and began reading as if nothing had happened.

"I ask for nothing but to read all these scriptures. Will you agree to that?"

Before the old man could reply, two other old men appeared out of thin air, accompanied by two men in black. One of them knelt and reported with a trembling voice, "Ancestor... Goddess Wei Ning has stated that she is not interested in meeting and is currently on her way to Young Master Jiang Feng's birthday celebration on the Immortal Wind Continent. Jiang Hao is also unavailable, sir."

The old man frowned slightly upon hearing this but did not say much, instead listening in silence. The two newly arrived old men whispered to each other as they observed the formations Jiang Yun had created. "These formations... are truly astonishing. I believe Ancestor No. 5 would be greatly interested if he saw them."

In the silent scripture pavilion, after the old man had sent the men in black away, only Jiang Yun and the two semi-immortal ancestors remained. Ancestor No. 13 spoke challengingly, "Young man, won't you greet us?"

Jiang Yun merely smiled faintly, as if the words had no weight in his mind, and responded indifferently. Sёarch* The Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Nice to meet you, but who are you? If there is no important matter, please leave."

At these words, it seemed like a provocation. Ancestor No. 13 and Ancestor No. 107 released their power with displeasure. Their semi-immortal energy filled the scripture pavilion. Despite the overwhelming pressure, Jiang Yun continued to read the scrolls in his hand, unfazed, his expression calm as if everything around him was irrelevant.

Ancestor No. 107 could no longer tolerate the cold indifference. He stepped closer to Jiang Yun, grabbing his shoulder and speaking with a threatening tone, "Young man, I could easily kill a Celestial Immortal like you, and you should know that a genius like you, still immature, is nothing more than an ant in the eyes of a semi-immortal like me."

Jiang Yun remained silent, not even turning to look. His eyes remained fixed on the scroll. Ancestor No. 107, enraged, began to gather his energy for an attack. But before the attack could be launched, Ancestor No. 13 stepped in to stop him just in time.

"Calm down," Ancestor No. 13 said, pushing his companion's hand down.

"Young man, would you be interested in becoming the son of the Jiang family's god?"

Jiang Yun, still reading the scrolls, paused briefly before responding flatly, "What would I gain?"

Ancestor No. 13 was about to answer, but Jiang Yun interrupted, "The disdain from servants? Physical abuse? Or perhaps having my origin stripped away?"

These words made both Ancestor No. 13 and Ancestor No. 107 stop in their tracks. They exchanged puzzled glances, and a moment of silence fell over them. Finally, the old man guarding the scripture pavilion spoke up.

"I will explain Jiang Yun's past to you."

Jiang Yun showed no interest, walking up to the next floor immediately and leaving behind the words:

"I'm not interested in your absurd title of divine son. I am only interested in what is in these scriptures. Once I have finished reading, I will leave and require nothing more from you. If no one provokes me, I will have no enmity with the Jiang family."

The two ancestors exchanged another look, unable to come up with an appropriate response to Jiang Yun. They refrained from taking any further action due to Jiang Yun's overwhelming talent, which was incredibly valuable to the Jiang family if utilized.
