Chapter 236: Heavenly Being Opportunity?
"Tian Can Daoist, that old fellow… really willing to act?"
He knows Tian Can Daoist's temperament well; rumors say this old monster has been reclusive in the mountains for years, single‑mindedly seeking a breakthrough, never concerning himself with worldly affairs, and coaxing him is no easy task.
Feng Mo's face instantly showed a look of difficulty, his brows knit tightly.
"Prince, to be frank, Master has been in seclusion for years, his whole mind focused on finding a chance to step into the Heavenly Realm, and he no longer cares about worldly matters; not to hide from you, Prince…"
He paused briefly, a faint bitter smile appearing on his face.
"Although the Four Brothers were adopted by Master since childhood and cherished by him, before the chance to break through the Heavenly Being, those bonds are far insufficient. Unless… unless we can present an opportunity comparable to breaking the Heavenly Being, Master may not be willing to come down."
"The chance to break through the Heavenly Being…"
Jiangnan Wang's hopeful expression vanished in an instant, his face instantly filled with bitterness.
He couldn't help muttering to himself.
"Such a defying‑heaven chance is scarce across the entire jianghu; where could one find it easily?"
Although he is not a cultivator, he knows very well how rare Heavenly Beings are.
After scheming for so many years, with his princely rank, he has only managed to enlist a few Grand Masters.
And the Heavenly Realm is a existence above Grand Masters, the lifelong goal of countless cultivators.
To break through the Heavenly Being, one not only needs sufficient personal strength but also a monumental chance or supreme technique—things that are encountered, not sought.
Hearing this, Feng Mo helplessly lowered his head.
Simply to avenge his three younger brothers, he feels Master's chance of coming down is slim.
After all, although Master is not yet a Heavenly Being, over these years he has long become indifferent to worldly emotions.
At that moment, Jiangnan Wang's eyes suddenly flashed brightly.
"Wait! I might… I might be able to give Senior Tian Can a chance to break through the Heavenly Being!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Mo instantly rose from the ground.
"Prince, are you serious? This is no joke! My Master has an eccentric temperament and a volatile temper; if you merely deceive him into coming down and he discovers it, the consequences would be unimaginable, and it could bring even greater trouble to you, Prince!"
He is eager for revenge, yet fully aware of Master's temper.
If they dare to use false information to deceive, not only revenge but everyone would suffer.
Grand Master Ninth Rank! Even Jiangnan Wangfu cannot withstand this one's wrath!
"Audacious!"
Jiangnan Wang, seeing Feng Mo dare to question him, instantly darkened his face and rebuked him harshly.
"I am the Lord of Jiangnan; my word carries nine tripods, how could I be one to speak frivolously?"
Feng Mo, shaken by his authority, hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowing and admitting his fault.
"I dare not! I was merely over‑excited and misspoke. The chance to break through the Heavenly Being is so rare that I must ensure its authenticity, otherwise…"
"Otherwise, if Master erupts in anger, not only will revenge fail, but it may also affect your grand plan, Prince!"
Seeing his attitude, Jiangnan Wang's expression softened a bit, and he waved his hand.
"Rise, I know your heart is set on revenge, and I understand your concerns."
Then, he gave a cold smile.
"Have you ever heard of the Jiangnan Qin Family?"
"Jiangnan Qin Family?"
Feng Mo's complexion changed slightly, and he spoke uncertainly.
"Are you referring to that millennia‑old hidden clan, the Qin Family?"
It is rumored that the Qin Family traces its lineage to antiquity and is Jiangnan's true cultivation powerhouse.
Not only is its foundation profound, but its masters are as numerous as clouds.
Even a hundred years ago, a Heavenly Being once emerged, shaking the entire Jiangnan martial world.
"Exactly, that's them!"
Jiangnan Wang let out a cold laugh and nodded.
"The current head of the Qin Family, Qin Kuo Hai, met me privately not long ago and revealed a secret. The Qin Family, in Xiangcheng Shennong Gu, discovered a hidden realm that appears to be a Wu Zun Ruins!"
"Wu Zun Ruins?"
Feng Mo's pupils contracted sharply, his breathing becoming rapid.
Wu Zun! That is a pinnacle beyond the Heavenly Realm, the ultimate of mortal cultivation!
The ruins left by Wu Zun must conceal countless chances—perhaps techniques to break realms, perhaps heaven‑defying Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, even possibly Wu Zun's lifelong cultivation insights!
Such a ruin is, for a Master seeking to break the Heavenly Realm, an enormous temptation!
"Prince, you mean… the chance for the Heavenly Realm lies within this Wu Zun Ruins?"
Feng Mo's voice trembled, full of anticipation.
Jiangnan Wang nodded, a confident smile appearing on his face.
"Exactly! As the first faction to discover the ruins, the Qin Family received four slots to enter. If Tian Can Daoist is willing to act for me to kill Jiang Feng, I can intervene and secure a chance for him to enter the Wu Zun Ruins!"
He looked at Feng Mo, his tone tinged with a hint of amusement.
"You say, does a qualification to enter a Wu Zun Ruins count as an excellent chance to break the Heavenly Being?"
"It does! Of course it does!"
Feng Mo trembled all over with excitement, nodding repeatedly.
"If we truly can enter the Wu Zun Ruins, not only to kill Jiang Feng but even to have Master do more, he would certainly agree! Prince, rest assured, as long as this bait exists, Master will definitely come down!"
He knows his Master too well; to break the Heavenly Being, Master can abandon everything.
What lies within the Wu Zun Ruins is likely the key to Master's breakthrough; such an opportunity Master would never miss!
Jiangnan Wang, seeing this, let out Laughter with satisfaction.
"Good! Since that's the case, you must set out Immediately to find Daoist Tian Can! Tell the old man that if he can personally kill Jiang Feng, this Prince guarantees to secure a slot for him to enter the Wu Zun Ruins! Moreover…"
He paused, a hint of calculation appearing in his eyes.
"Tell your Master clearly: if he can use this Ruins' opportunity to successfully step into the Heavenly Realm, this Prince asks for nothing else but that the old man form an alliance with this Prince and join the grand undertaking!"
"No problem! Subordinate will go to see Master right now!"
Wind Demon's face was filled with wild joy.
"Prince, rest assured, the subordinate will definitely persuade Master to descend from the Mountain and personally slay Jiang Feng!"
Having said that, Wind Demon rose, rushed turningly toward the doorway.
Watching Wind Demon's departing silhouette, Jiangnan Wang's smile gradually faded.
At that moment, Si Jiannan entered like a ghost from outside the door, respectfully standing behind Jiangnan Wang.
"Everyone heard, right?"
Jiangnan Wang did not turn his head, Tone weary.
"Go Immediately to the Qin Family and meet Qin Kuo Hai."
Jiangnan Wang's gaze was sharp, and he spoke slowly.
"Tell her, this Prince is willing to take her daughter Qin Wanqing as a royal consort, and Jiangnan Wangfu and the Qin Family shall form a life‑and‑death alliance!"
"In exchange, I want the Qin Family to give this Prince another seat to enter the Wu Zun Ruins! Remember, None Qin Kuo Hai proposes any condition, as long as it does not exceed the bottom line, it can be agreed!"
"Yes, Prince."
Si Jiannan respectfully replied.
"Go."
Jiangnan Wang waved his hand.
