The Jiang family and the Wang family had no connection, with little communication and no grudges between them; they were like strangers passing by.
It was precisely for this reason that Jiang Daoxu was curious about what the people from the Northern Wang family were doing at their Jiang family.
"This time, it seems there is a quasi-supreme among the Northern Wang family's group. It appears they have come to discuss something with my Jiang family," said an elder of the clan.
Generally speaking, the appearance of a quasi-supreme indicates that there are important matters to discuss.
As for coming to provoke, that was unlikely.
The Jiang family was not a presence that anyone could easily provoke.
Although the Northern Wang family was strong, they would not be foolish enough to make an enemy of the Jiang family for no reason.
Moreover, if they truly intended to provoke hostility, they would not send just one quasi-supreme; that would be akin to delivering vegetables.
"Why don't you go take a look?" Jiang Daoxu waved his hand.
His health was not good, and it was difficult for him to make an appearance.
"Come, Jiang Rou, Jun Xiaoyao, keep me company," Jiang Daoxu said with a kind smile.
He sensed that his body could not hold out much longer.
In these limited days, enjoying some family time was a final comfort.
As for life and death, as a supreme powerhouse, Jiang Daoxu had long since come to terms with it.
Having lived to this level, he had seen through many things.
The only thing he was concerned about was his family and his loved ones, like Jiang Rou and Jun Xiaoyao.
Jun Xiaoyao nodded, pondering whether there was truly no way to save his grandfather.
At the same time, some elders of the Jiang family were also outside, dealing with the people from the Northern Wang family.
Outside the Jiang family's mountain gate, a grand procession lingered in the sky.
There were ancient beasts pulling carriages, and ships soaring through the air, with banners fluttering, emblazoned with the character for "Wang"!
The Ancient Wang family, the supreme overlord of the far north of the Ancient Heavenly Immortal Domain, occupied over thirty Dao states, thriving and commanding great power.
Even the Ancient Jiang family, one of the three ruling families, had to treat the Northern Wang family with caution.
The eyes of several Jiang family elders were filled with a hint of seriousness.
They could not understand the purpose of the Northern Wang family's visit to the Jiang family.
The Northern Wang family and the Jiang family had little relationship; they were neither allied nor hostile, merely two powers that did not interfere with each other.
Now, the Northern Wang family had actually come to the Jiang family, led by a quasi-supreme.
This clearly indicated that the Wang family had something to discuss with the Jiang family.
"Hehe, I didn't expect the Northern Overlord to come to my Jiang family, truly making my Jiang family shine," one elder of the Jiang family said politely.
"You're too kind. As expected of the Ancient Jiang family, one of the three ruling families, your clan's territory is magnificent. My Northern Wang family is ashamed in comparison," a majestic figure stood in the sky, exuding a heavy pressure.
This was not intentional but a naturally revealed aura.
The Jiang family elder did not mind the flattery from the Wang family's quasi-supreme and directly asked, "I wonder why you have come to my Jiang family with such a grand display?"
Facing the Northern Wang family, the Jiang family was cautious but not fearful.
When friends come, there is fine wine!
When enemies come, there are swords and blades!
"Hehe, no need to be so guarded. My Wang family comes with absolute goodwill and sincerity, wishing to form an alliance with the Jiang family," the Wang family's quasi-supreme said with a faint smile.
"Form an alliance?" The Jiang family elder showed surprise.
The two powers had little connection, and they were not allied.
Why did the Wang family suddenly have the intention to form an alliance?
"Your Jiang family's old drunkard is skilled in divining the heavenly secrets and predicting fortunes. You should know that a great era is approaching, with winds and clouds stirring."
"All sorts of impossible events may occur in this era, and even immortal powers may fall in this great struggle."
"Therefore, an alliance between our two families would benefit both sides," the Wang family's quasi-supreme said.
The Jiang family elder's gaze shifted.
What he said was indeed reasonable.
With the arrival of a great era, it was possible for earth-shattering changes to occur; even ancient families with countless epochs of heritage could not remain complacent.
"Then what does your Wang family mean..." The Jiang family elder hesitated.
"Marriage alliance," the Wang family's quasi-supreme stated.
"Marriage alliance?" The Jiang family elder raised an eyebrow.
The Wang family had traveled thousands of miles to the Jiang family just for a marriage alliance?
"Exactly. I believe you have heard of my Wang family's young emperor," the Wang family's quasi-supreme said, slightly raising his chin, his tone carrying a hint of pride.
Wang Teng, the young emperor of the Wang family, was the pride of almost everyone in the Wang family.
The Wang family would pay any price for Wang Teng's rise.
"The name of the Wang family's young emperor is indeed well-known; who hasn't heard of it?" the Jiang family elder chuckled.
If this were before, the Jiang family elder might have envied the Wang family for having such a prodigy.
But now, the elders of the Jiang family were very calm and composed.
Because their Jiang family's young master was Jun Xiaoyao.
An existence that was absolutely not weaker than the Wang family's young emperor!
Seeing the somewhat perfunctory expression of the Jiang family elder, the Wang family's quasi-supreme subtly frowned.
But he still said, "Your Jiang family does have someone worthy of my Wang family's young emperor."
"Oh, really? May I ask who?" The Jiang family elder raised an eyebrow slightly.
The Wang family's quasi-supreme was implying that someone from the Jiang family was worthy of their young emperor.
This statement carried a hint of belittling the Jiang family.
"The Jiang family's goddess, Jiang Shengyi," the Wang family's quasi-supreme said.
"What? Shengyi?" The elders were slightly taken aback.
They did not expect that the young emperor of the Wang family would set his sights on Jiang Shengyi.
Jiang Shengyi possessed an innate Dao fetus, and her future achievements were limitless.
Not to mention anything else, if someone could become Jiang Shengyi's partner, the benefits would be endless.
If they were to cultivate together, just the innate Dao fetus would be a tremendous fortune.
Clearly, the Wang family's young emperor was aiming for this.
Of course, aside from that, Jiang Shengyi was indeed an unparalleled beauty, unrivaled in the Ancient Heavenly Immortal Domain.
"This... is a bit sudden, and we still need to consult Shengyi's opinion," the Jiang family elder said.
In general powers, outstanding women might be used as tools for marriage alliances.
However, the Ancient Jiang family was powerful in its own right, and they also had the Jun family as a super strong ally.
There was no need to sacrifice Jiang Shengyi's happiness to win over the Wang family.
Of course, if Jiang Shengyi was willing, that would be another matter.
At the very least, the Jiang family would not force Jiang Shengyi into a marriage alliance.
Hearing this somewhat vague and ambiguous response, the Wang family's quasi-supreme frowned slightly, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.
Their Wang family's young emperor was an exceptionally talented young supreme.
In his expectations, the Jiang family should be very willing and agree immediately.
However, the Wang family was well-prepared for such situations.
The Wang family's quasi-supreme raised the corner of his mouth in a mysterious smile and said lightly, "I said, our Wang family has come with sincerity and goodwill this time."
"I believe your Jiang family's once-dominant supreme, Jiang Daoxu, is in a rather precarious situation now, isn't he?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the Jiang family elders instantly froze!
