“The commotion might be a bit big, but this is just a desolate wilderness, and it's arranged by our Jiang Clan. Other forces wouldn't dare to have any opinions about us without understanding the situation...”
The more Hong Yan spoke, the more excited she became, and Jiang Ye's eyes grew brighter.
This little girl's mind is quite active.
It's pretty much the same as his idea.
It's just tough for Ye Qingyun's grandfathers.
Jiang Ye's tone carried a hint of appreciation: “Not bad, not bad. Qing Xuan, go and relay the orders to set it up. There must be no mishaps!”
“Yan'er, come over. This Divine Son will reward you well tonight...”
Upon hearing this, Hong Yan's small face immediately flushed, and she slowly walked forward, murmuring, “Young Master, please have pity...”
However, Jiang Ye then poured a bucket of cold water on her.
“It's broad daylight. What's the rush?”
Hong Yan's expression deflated, and she felt a surge of Qi in her heart.
Jiang Ye's finger gently tapped the tea table in front of him, his gaze deep, myriad thoughts flashing through his mind as if he were lost in thought.
“Yan'er has made some progress, but she didn't consider the external impact.”
Hong Yan was slightly startled at his words, and asked doubtfully, “Young Master, do other forces still dare to interfere in our Jiang Clan's affairs?”
Jiang Ye shook his head.
A few days ago, the death of Blood Butcher, a Quasi-Emperor, and the display of the Emperor Talisman's power, meant that its Dao power must have already been detected by many strong individuals in the outside world.
The Ancient Immortal Domain is now a mix of Dragons and fish, and it's a time of many troubles.
The matter of the innate immortal liquid has put all forces on edge; even the smallest ripple will draw the attention of various forces making a big deal out of it.
“The matter of Fire Lotus City back then, though two hundred thousand years have passed, surely the Various Great Dao Lineages have records. The death of Quasi-Emperor Blood Butcher will undoubtedly lead them to speculate that the Fire Lotus City remnants were discovered and suppressed by my Jiang Clan...”
“But such a matter is the private affair of my Jiang Clan. Now, the innate immortal liquid is the key. They won't waste too much energy on us, and it's even less likely they'll act, nor do they have any reason to protect the enemies of my Jiang Clan.”
“Unless they want to die.”
“Or...”
“They are colluding with the Fire Lotus City remnants.”
As Jiang Ye's words fell, Hong Yan frowned slightly.
After Blood Butcher's death, the Jiang Clan publicly announced that the Fire Lotus City remnants had attempted to assassinate the Divine Son of the Jiang Clan and were deservedly killed in retaliation.
They also informed all major forces that the Fire Lotus City matter concerned the dignity of Empress Hongye. Anyone who dared to interfere would be met with an Immortal War from the Jiang Clan.
This prevented all major forces from taking any action.
No one dared to provoke the Jiang Clan at this time.
Those Immortal Dao Lineages wouldn't bother with thankless tasks.
Jiang Ye smiled, pulling the troubled Hong Yan into his arms: “Yan'er, don't rush. Think about it carefully again?”
Although Hong Yan has a lively personality, her strategic foresight has more potential than Qing Xuan's.
She pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized: “Young Master's announcement of this matter, bringing the Fire Lotus City incident into the open, has profound practical significance.”
“At this time, whoever dares to jump out and help the Fire Lotus City remnants will be an enemy of my Jiang Clan!”
“Then Empress Hongye will have a reason to act!”
Jiang Ye nodded. What was the root cause of the Jiang Clan's strong reputation for two hundred thousand years?
Empress Hongye is the number one Peak Great Emperor of this era.
Who would dare to openly oppose her?
If some fool dared to jump out, Su Hongye would directly act forcefully, and other reclusive Great Emperors would have no reason to stop her.
Other forces would also come like wolves to meat, swarming to feast.
Not only could they get a share, but they could also use this opportunity to curry favor with the Jiang Clan.
Hong Yan giggled: “Then we'll just proceed with the arrangements now?”
Jiang Ye smacked her firm buttocks hard, raising an eyebrow and saying, “You're getting carried away, still not thinking deeply enough!”
“Fan He of the Fan Family mentioned the marriage between the mysterious person and the Fan Family that day. This matter also involves the Taiwei Star Palace in the Central Province of the Ancient Immortal Domain...”
“That mysterious person is most likely one of the Fire Lotus City remnants.”
“Although the investigation into the Taiwei Star Palace currently has no leads, it is probably also on the current innate immortal liquid chessboard, and their ambitions may not be small...”
“Heh heh, I didn't expect that a casual fabrication by This Divine Son back then would unearth so many big fish. It's quite interesting.”
Hong Yan caught the key point and immediately said, “Those old fellows in Fire Lotus City were probably involved in the innate immortal liquid matter. Now that it has suddenly been exposed, someone in the Ancient Immortal Domain should be unable to sit still.”
Jiang Ye nodded.
In fact, the current situation in the Ancient Immortal Domain is too deep, and even the Various Great Dao Lineages are completely confused, essentially crossing a river by feeling for stones.
He also had no clear path.
But that's not important; Ye Qingyun, the Protagonist of Destiny, will become a brilliant chess piece to break the deadlock.
Following the Protagonist of Destiny, the truth of any matter will surface.
Jiang Ye only needs to pluck the fruit at the final crucial moment.
However, before that, he must sever all support behind Ye Qingyun.
“Let Mother come to the Eastern Wilderness to take charge, lest some petty individuals try to fish in troubled waters in the dark.”
Jiang Ye's tone was calm, but his words revealed immense power.
After the Dark Era ended, Great Emperors in the world were no longer allowed to manifest themselves freely in public. Su Hongye's situation was rather special; no one dared to say anything if she acted to seize some resources.
But if she ran around in other forces' territories without reason, other Great Emperors would appear, adding to the trouble.
However, the situation is different now. The Fire Lotus City matter from back then concerns Su Hongye's personal new and old grudges.
The old grudge refers to Fire Lotus City's actions against Su Hongye in the past.
The new grudge, of course, is “the Fire Lotus City remnant Blood Butcher's assassination of Jiang Ye.”
Her appearance at this time is entirely reasonable and justifiable.
“In this way, no matter what these people are plotting, they will have to avoid her sharp edge and dare not interfere further.”
“Because beneath the Great Emperor, all are ants.”
“Anyone who dares to offend the Great Emperor's dignity can be crushed at will, and no one would dare to say anything.”
Jiang Ye smiled indifferently.
Whose fault is it that your family has no Great Emperor?
Moreover, he had discussed this with his mother beforehand.
There would definitely be no accidents in this matter.
His mother's message was very domineering: “Your old man still has some conscience; he sent a lot of good things a few years ago, and this mother has also been making rapid progress recently...”
“Whoever dares to ruin my son's plans, I'll directly destroy them.”
“If those old things from back then dare to show up and obstruct, this old lady doesn't mind letting the world see the true trump card of my Jiang Clan!”
Jiang Ye couldn't help but exclaim in admiration after reading it: “Good heavens, the Jiang Clan still has such a foundation!”
Because he was worried that Su Hongye, out of love for him, would recklessly help him.
He specifically asked again and again.
After all, the world is vast and full of wonders.
Even the strongest experts can sometimes suffer an unexpected setback.
He did not want Su Hongye to suffer any accidents because of him.
Finally, Su Hongye couldn't refuse Jiang Ye.
She told him some secrets of the Jiang Clan.
From its birth to the present, over countless epochs, the Jiang Clan has indeed experienced periods of decline, and there were times when no Great Emperor was in charge of the clan.
The historical records of the Jiang Clan have always documented this.
However, due to his insufficient Realm and authority, Jiang Ye had never known the true foundation of the Jiang Clan.
Only now did he learn a part of it.
Whenever the Jiang Clan was in decline, Great Emperors would always come to try and annihilate them.
But all these Great Emperors died.
Because these sealed histories are too ancient, only the Ancient Immortal Court and the oldest reclusive Dao Lineages in the heavens have records.
Even more terrifyingly...
A Heavenly Emperor once appeared and also visited the Jiang Clan.
