Chapter 1389: The Jiang Family

After Xu Chen asked.

The Jade Pendant's Spirit, Xu Lingyou, said:

"Of course there is, because the Jiang Family's Jade Pendant has long lacked a Contract Holder."

This has caused the Jiang Family's strength to plummet rapidly, since other families' Jade Pendants do not require a Contract Holder.

But theirs is different, so they are searching for a Contract Holder."

Xu Chen nodded: "Within these few days?"

Xu Lingyou nodded: "Yes, they have invited many families over, saying anyone can come—as long as they can become a Contract Holder."

Xu Chen said: "What about the other Eight Great Ancient Clans? Won't they be at a huge disadvantage?"

Xu Lingyou said:

"Not necessarily—they have already stipulated that anyone who becomes a Contract Holder must serve the Jiang Family.

Otherwise, the Illusory Sound Shen Yu cannot be taken away; Jiang Family won't agree.

In other words, a Heavenly Dao Oath will definitely be required—if not, it's useless, and Jiang Family will stop it."

Xu Chen asked curiously:

"Suppose someone from the Lin Family becomes the Contract Holder—would the Lin Family agree to this?"

Xu Lingyou chuckled: "They have no choice; it was agreed beforehand. If they don't agree, don't come."

Xu Chen nodded: "That's true."

Xu Lingyou said:

"Actually, this is a great opportunity for the Eight Great Ancient Clans.

After all, learning about other Ancient Jades is quite valuable.

Especially under a contract with the Illusory Sound Ancient Jade, it's even better.

Because it means fully understanding the Illusory Sound Ancient Jade.

I think no one from any Ancient Clan would refuse such a good opportunity.

Even if they do not get it after a hundred years, becoming a Contract Holder is still an excellent thing."

Xu Chen said: "True. So what is Jiang Family doing now?"

Xu Lingyou said:

"Preparing for the Contract Ceremony and waiting for people from this world to arrive to see who can become the Contract Holder.

Those with higher talent and higher cultivation level are naturally prioritized.

Because the Jiang Family wants to choose the most outstanding person to become the Contract Holder of the Illusory Sound Shen Yu.

Then, when serving Jiang Family, they can exert their maximum effect."

Xu Chen nodded again; this was indeed a good arrangement.

After all, under the premise of a Heavenly Dao Oath,

everything would pose no problem.

Serve, you must serve; refuse to serve, you still must serve.

Otherwise, the backlash from Heavenly Dao's power would be no joke.

Xu Chen stretched: "Are they also going to compete for the Contract Holder position?"

Xu Lingyou covered her mouth and laughed: "No, they just want to see if there's anything valuable around Jiang Family."

Xu Chen grinned: "What? Do they plan to strip everything around Jiang Family bare?"

He was truly worn out by these heroines.

Why do they think of nothing else but these things every day?

If he hadn't heard Xu Lingyou say this himself, he simply wouldn't have believed it.

Xu Lingyou chuckled: "Probably so—though I wonder if Jiang Family will catch on."

Xu Chen nodded: "Alright, let's go take a look too—I'm actually quite interested in that Illusory Sound Shen Yu."
