Chapter 524

"Starblade knows he has no blood ties to the family; should he one day find a woman he loves within the clan, he will surely sire offspring to strengthen the family lineage!"

Jiang Daoxuan nodded, silently thinking the man knew how to handle things well.

He then said: "Since that's the case, from today onward, you shall take the name Jiang Xingjian, enter the Tianquan Line, and be inscribed into the Jiang clan's genealogy..."

"Now that you've joined the Jiang family, there's no need to remain a Patron—directly enter the Tianquan Line and assume the post of Tianquan Elder."

"From today onward, I shall use the Cangwu Token to notify the entire clan of this news..."

He naturally knew the man had an extremely close relationship with Jiang Zhi, so he directly assigned him to her Tianquan Line.

And "Jiang Xingjian" naturally felt the clan chief's goodwill, immediately thanking him: "Starblade thanks the clan chief!"

Jiang Daoxuan nodded: "We're family now—stand up."

As Jiang Xingjian rose.

Jiang Daoxuan suddenly said: "Family doesn't speak in formalities—you're currently blocked by your innate constitution, halting your cultivation base. Have you considered a solution?"

In just a few months, he broke through from Yuanhai Realm's peak to Starwheel Realm's second level—such progress would be considered remarkable in the outside world.

But within the Jiang family, compared to the other prodigies, it was far too slow!

Jiang Xingjian understood this well.

The younger generation was catching up at a terrifying pace; soon, they would surpass him entirely.

In truth, he wasn't worried about that.

But the one thing he could not accept was being unable to help Jiang Zhi on her future path—even becoming a burden to her.

To better aid her, clear her path, and protect her growth.

He bowed his head urgently: "Please, my lord, instruct me!"

Jiang Daoxuan glanced at him: "I have a method that can transform you completely."

At these words, Jiang Xingjian froze.

He immediately thought of many things.

At that moment, Jiang Zhi beside him brightened, realizing something.

She recalled the transformation she herself had undergone before the clan chief.

And Starblade's restricted talent had long troubled her.

Now that a solution had finally appeared, how could she remain calm?

So she hurriedly said: "Please, my lord, lend your aid—help Starblade uncle..."

As her voice rang out, Jiang Xingjian snapped back to awareness.

His heart warmed instantly; he bowed deeply: "Please, my lord, grant me this method!"

Jiang Daoxuan nodded, slowly extending his right palm.

Seeing this, Jiang Xingjian stood motionless, allowing the palm to rest upon his head.

Soon, vast amounts of sword Dao knowledge flooded his mind, forming countless tiny figures wielding swords, executing astonishing, unrivaled sword techniques!

What is this?!

Jiang Xingjian's eyes grew increasingly bright, gradually sinking into deep comprehension.

Finally, the tiny figures dissolved, condensing into four large characters.

《Ten Thousand Swords Pay Homage》!

The instant he saw these four characters, Jiang Xingjian jolted awake, overwhelmed with shock and disbelief!

He had never seen such a breathtakingly exquisite sword technique.

Its terrifying depth was beyond imagination!

Merely by glancing at it, he sensed that his previously frozen sword realm had subtly loosened.

He naturally understood what this meant.

Perhaps the opportunity to break through to the Sword Heart Realm lies right here.

Thinking this, Jiang Xingjian asked nervously: "May I ask, my lord, what rank is this Ten Thousand Swords Pay Homage? Its subtleties—I've never encountered anything like them..."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhi perked up, feeling a flicker of curiosity.

Starblade uncle cultivated the Earth-grade Supreme Wind-Thunder Sword Art—his discernment was certainly high.

Yet now, faced with this sword technique, he showed signs of losing composure.

Clearly, this sword technique was terrifyingly powerful!

Could it be a Heaven-grade technique?!

Jiang Zhi's eyes grew brighter still; as a swordsman, how could she not crave a stronger sword art?

For them, a fine sword was the best companion—even a partner.

And a great sword art was the best teacher, guiding one's path on the Sword Dao.

Under their intense focus.

Jiang Daoxuan said casually: "Rank? Just Heaven-grade Supreme..."

At these words, it was as if thunder rolled!

Neither cared about the rest—every ounce of attention focused on "Heaven-grade Supreme!"

Their breathing quickened; both felt overwhelming desire.

According to their current authority level, the highest-ranked sword art they could exchange for via the Cangwu Token was Earth-grade Supreme.

Yet now, their own clan chief casually bestowed a Heaven-grade Supreme!

Remember: Heaven-grade Supreme could rival a Heaven-Tier cultivator—in the entire Great Qin Empire, none could be found!

Jiang Xingjian swallowed hard, his heart pounding violently.

He now finally understood why his sword realm had loosened.

So it turned out this exquisitely subtle sword art was actually a top-grade Heaven-rank technique pointing directly toward the supreme Sword Dao!

Thinking of the Clan Chief's high regard for him.

Such a precious sword art, and he had simply passed it on just like that.

He could not help but feel deeply moved.

He was all the more certain that choosing to stay with the Jiang family was truly the wisest decision he had ever made in his life!

Afterward, he could not help but bow repeatedly once more, to express the gratitude in his heart.

Seeing this, Jiang Daoxuan did not stop him.

After all, as one in a superior position, one naturally needed to balance kindness and authority, and must not be too friendly, lest others lose the awe they held in their hearts.
