Chapter 523: Bestowed Surname: Jiang Xingjian!

Hearing Gu Xingjian's words, Jiang Daoxuan nodded.

With his current cultivation base and realm, he could naturally tell that the other party was not lying.

Every word struck the ground like a stone—none of it was false.

So he looked at Gu Xingjian and let out a soft laugh.

"You only regret that you were not born a member of the Jiang family? Well, today I can give you a chance."

"I shall grant you the Jiang family surname. Return with me to the Cangwu Jiang family, and from this day forth become one of our own. Are you willing?"

The words fell.

Gu Xingjian's pupils contracted. He jerked his head up, looked at Jiang Daoxuan, and an expression of utter disbelief crossed his face!

"The Jiang family surname? Clan Leader, you....."

He was greatly astonished; he had never imagined that today he would encounter such a stroke of fortune.

Then, an immense surge of joy welled up in his heart. The feeling of fantasy turning into reality made him wonder whether he might actually be dreaming right now.

Seeing Gu Xingjian still standing there in a daze, Jiang Daoxuan added a touch more weight to his tone: "What? You don't want to?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Xingjian shuddered all over, hurriedly dropped to his knees, cupped his hands, and said: "Xingjian was born into a world of chaos. From childhood I lost both parents and could only grow up eating the meals of a hundred families. I always thought my life would remain this bleak."

"I never expected that here on Cangwu Mountain, before you, Clan Leader my lord, I would feel a rare warmth."

"Joining the Jiang family has always been Xingjian's dream. If Clan Leader my lord does not spurn me, Xingjian is willing to become a member of the Jiang family!"
