Chapter 455: If You Feel Lost, You Might as Well Look Back!

At the same time, beyond their shock, they suddenly felt something else.

The contribution points needed to exchange for this Pure Yang Infinite Art were not just few, but far too few.

One must understand—this was a supreme art of the highest Heaven rank!

Even if the contribution points were multiplied several times, or even dozens of times, it would still be too little.

After all, faced with an art that existed only in legend, ordinary people could never obtain it in their entire lives, nor even glimpse it!

Yet such a precious art, right before their eyes, was within easy reach!

Overwhelming joy made the two exchange glances, their eyes brimming with excitement!

If not for the thought that the Clan Chief was right before them, they would not have been able to stop themselves from crying out!

At this moment, Jiang Ming gazed at the joy on their faces and could not help but fall into confusion.

What on earth did the Clan Chief do to make these two so delighted?

Just as he was puzzling over it—

Jiang Beiyе and Jiang Xian gradually came back to their senses.

They faced Jiang Daoxuan, immediately dropped to their knees, and bowed respectfully:

"Many thanks to the Clan Chief for bestowing the art!"

As the words fell, Jiang Ming's face immediately showed an expression of understanding.

So it was the Clan Chief who had bestowed the art upon the two of them.

But why was it only imparted to these two, while I was left out?

Was it forgotten, or... did it carry some deeper meaning?

With two Emperor-rank arts already within him, Jiang Ming had no interest whatsoever in any other arts.

What he truly cared about was the deeper meaning behind the Clan Chief's actions.

Immediately after, Jiang Daoxuan was heard saying:

"Rise. This art is the only thing I can presently do for you."

"The road ahead must ultimately be walked by yourselves."

"If you ever feel lost, you might as well look back."

"Behind you, the countless clansmen are all waiting for you to grow. They need your protection and your aid."

"Therefore, even should you face the greatest of hardships, never speak lightly of giving up..."

The moment these words were spoken, Jiang Beiyе and Jiang Xian's bodies trembled.

They clenched their fists, their faces set with resolve, their eyes shining with a blazing light of hope!

Since the clan that bore and raised us needs us—

We absolutely must not fail the Clan Chief's great expectations, nor the clan's nurturing and cultivation!

From this day forth, we shall guard against all slackness, lest we waste the fortune and opportunity bestowed upon us.

We must give our all, make use of everything, to scale and conquer peak after peak, so that all our clansmen may live better lives!

At the same time, they also looked forward with boundless hope—

That one day, they might once again stand before the Clan Chief, puff out their chests, and say with full confidence: We have fulfilled yesterday's promise! So long as we are here, the clan shall never fall apart!

At this moment, seeing that the fighting spirit of the two had been thoroughly ignited by him,

Jiang Daoxuan's face showed a look of satisfaction.

Now the development of the Cangwu Jiang Clan grew ever better, and the environment for cultivating ever more superior.

He naturally did not wish to see clansmen of uncommon talent corrupted in their will, content with the status quo, leading to a future of hardship and many detours.

Then, Jiang Daoxuan turned his head slightly and cast a glance at Jiang Ming, who stood with his head lowered.

His gaze shifted, he turned his eyes back to Jiang Beiyе and Jiang Xian, and said softly:

"Cultivation is of paramount importance and must never be taken lightly."

"Having you come here has already delayed quite some time. Now that all matters are settled, you should return first..."

The two were somewhat overwhelmed by the favor and hurriedly waved their hands:

"No delay at all, no delay at all—the matters of you, Clan Chief, are what matter most."

"Right—if anyone should apologize for delaying, it's clearly us. We are the ones who delayed your time..."

The two bowed once more.

Seeing that the Clan Chief wished to meet alone with this clansman of theirs, Jiang Ming,

They did not linger, immediately took their leave, and walked out of the clan's great hall.

Soon, the vast clan's great hall held only Jiang Daoxuan and Jiang Ming.

At this moment, seeing the two clansmen depart, Jiang Ming's heart grew even more uneasy.

At this instant, his mind began to spin at a speed never before seen!

Keeping me behind alone—could the Clan Chief have seen through something?

Silence hung over the scene for several breaths.

As time passed, the pressure in Jiang Ming's heart grew heavier and heavier.

Just as he was about to break and prepare to speak—

Jiang Daoxuan's voice suddenly rang out, swiftly pulling his thoughts from hell to heaven!

"Since you have already obtained your own unique fortune and opportunity, imparting those arts to you would truly be improper."

The moment these words were spoken, Jiang Ming's spirit jolted, and he thought inwardly: Just as I suspected.

The Clan Chief has indeed seen through the secret upon me.

But just how did the Clan Chief see through it?
