During his stay at the Jiang family's residence, Jiang Yuchuan not only read books to gather information and cultivated, but also secretly observed the members of the Jiang family.

After observing for a period of time, Jiang Yuchuan discovered that although the Jiang family had become the number one family and the strongest force in Taiping Town, they never abused their power and were very strict in disciplining their disciples.

This suddenly gave Jiang Yuchuan another idea.

Although he didn't know much about this continent, he was certain that the waters here were definitely not shallow!

Before his strength reaches a point where he can crush everything, it's clearly no longer appropriate for him to continue being a lone wolf.

Therefore, he conceived the idea of ​​cultivating a force that could be used by him at any time.

This force doesn't need to be too powerful; it just needs to be able to appear in time when he needs it, do things that are inconvenient for him to do himself, and gather intelligence.

The Jiang family perfectly met all his requirements.

Although the Jiang family is currently very weak, he has plenty of elixirs.

He believed that, with the nurturing of these elixirs, the Jiang family members would soon grow to a level that satisfied him.

Of course, these are just his ideas, and whether they can be implemented depends on the Jiang family's choice.

He wouldn't force anyone; if the Jiang family disagreed, he could simply look for someone else.

However, in his opinion, the Jiang family would most likely not refuse.

That evening, Jiang Kai, who was in seclusion recovering from his injuries, went to see Jiang Yuchuan after being notified by his servants.

As soon as Jiang Kai entered the room, Jiang Yuchuan, without saying a word, immediately sent out a stream of spiritual energy into Jiang Kai's body.

The speed was so fast that Jiang Kai didn't even have time to react.

But in the next instant, this spiritual energy quickly circulated within his body, healing all his injuries, including hidden ones, and even making him look several years younger.

"--this!!"

Sensing the changes within his body, Jiang Kai was so shocked he was speechless and stood frozen in place.

Jiang Yuchuan didn't beat around the bush, looked at Jiang Kai, and asked with a smile:

"Although the Jiang family has now become the dominant force in Taiping Town, the small town of Taiping is ultimately limited in resources, and it is not a place for long-term development. I wonder if the Jiang family intends to look to a wider area and revive the Jiang family's former glory?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Kai was startled and asked in a trembling voice, "What do you mean by that, senior?"

Although he had some vague guesses in his mind, he asked again solemnly because it was too unbelievable.

"What I mean is simple."

Jiang Yuchuan stated frankly, "I need the Jiang family to work for me. In return, I will provide the Jiang family with corresponding cultivation resources. After all, the Jiang family is too weak right now and does not meet the standard for working for me."

Jiang Kai remained silent for a moment, then replied earnestly, "This matter is of great importance. Senior, may I discuss it with the other members of our clan?"

"Naturally."

As he spoke, Jiang Yuchuan took out a pill and tossed it to Jiang Kai, saying, "Take this pill. If a martial artist in the Returning Heaven Realm takes it, they can easily break through a minor realm."

"Isn't this—a little too precious?"

Jiang Kai carefully accepted the pill, his heart filled with shock once again.

Pills that can enhance one's cultivation level in the Returning Heaven Realm are not something that even powerful forces like Black Iron and Silver can easily produce!

"It doesn't matter."

Jiang Yuchuan waved his hand dismissively, "Empty words are ultimately unconvincing. Consider this pill as proof of my promise."

After leaving Jiang Yuchuan's residence, Jiang Kai went straight to the ancestral hall and ordered his servants to summon Jiang Zhenbang and other core members of the Jiang family.

The matter to be discussed this time concerns the future of the Jiang family, so Jiang Kai did not send anyone to inform the younger members, such as Jiang Chengxuan.

Upon receiving Jiang Kai's urgent notification, Jiang Zhenbang and the others were all filled with anxiety, thinking that the family had encountered some difficulties again. Therefore, they immediately put down what they were doing and rushed towards the ancestral hall.

When Jiang Zhenbang and others arrived, Jiang Kai was pacing back and forth in front of the ancestral tablets with his hands behind his back.

"Ancestor, why did you summon us here in such a hurry? Has something unexpected happened?"

The head of the family, Jiang Zhenbang, was the first to ask a question.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Jiang Kai stopped, his gaze sweeping over everyone before finally settling on Jiang Zhenbang. He said in a deep voice:

"Zhenbang, take a few steps forward."

Jiang Zhenbang was completely confused, but he still took two steps forward as Jiang Kai instructed.

Before he could even ask a question, Jiang Kai issued another command:

"Hands out!"

"what?"

Jiang Zhenbang was extremely puzzled at this moment, but due to Jiang Kai's expression, he had no choice but to do as he was told, raising his hand and reaching out.

Jiang Kai placed the pill that Jiang Yuchuan had given him into Jiang Zhenbang's hand, saying, "Eat it."

"Ancestor, this elixir—"

Before Jiang Zhenbang could finish speaking, Jiang Kai interrupted him immediately, "Stop dawdling, eat now! Would your ancestor ever harm you!"

"That's not what I meant, Ancestor—"

Seeing Jiang Kai's expression change again, Jiang Zhenbang didn't dare to say anything more and swallowed the pill.

Just as he was wondering what the effects of the pills his ancestor had given him were, he suddenly felt the pills that had entered his mouth transform into a stream of heat that flowed directly into his dantian.

The next instant, the true energy in Jiang Zhenbang's dantian began to boil.

The powerful true energy overflowed from his body, startling everyone standing around.

"—Ancestor, what?"

"Is Big Brother about to break through?!"

Everyone was shocked when they sensed that Jiang Zhenbang's aura was rapidly increasing.

Even if they were slow to react, they would know that the pills the ancestor had given Jiang Zhenbang were for improving his cultivation level!

Immediately afterwards, a surge of curiosity arose in everyone's hearts.

How did the ancestor obtain such a precious elixir?

Fifteen minutes later, the aura emanating from Jiang Zhenbang finally stopped, and the overflowing true energy began to dissipate.

"Late stage of the Returning Heaven Realm?!"

Sensing his current state of mind, Jiang Zhenbang looked at Jiang Kai standing in front of him with disbelief.

"Ancestor, this elixir—"

Jiang Kai raised his hand again to stop Jiang Zhenbang from asking more questions, and looked at the clansmen who were all looking on with curiosity, and said seriously:

"This pill was a gift from Senior Jiang."

He then reiterated Jiang Yuchuan's plan to cultivate the Jiang family to work for him and asked for everyone's opinions and views.

After hearing Jiang Kai's words, Jiang Zhenbang and the others fell silent for a moment. Then, Jiang Zhenbang's younger brother, Jiang Fengqing, spoke first with an excited tone:

“I think this is a good idea! As the saying goes, people strive for higher positions, and water flows downhill! If our Jiang family misses this opportunity, we may only be able to live a secluded life in Taiping Town!”

Jiang Wei chimed in, "Feng Qing is right! Both the powerful serpentine beast and the pill Zhenbang just took are enough to prove that Senior Jiang's background is extraordinary! The benefits our Jiang family can gain from working for such a master will definitely outweigh the drawbacks! Perhaps our Jiang family can seize this opportunity to soar to new heights and restore or even surpass the glory of our ancestors!"

After Jiang Wei finished speaking, several other clansmen spoke up, all expressing their agreement with what she had just said.

After hearing everyone's thoughts, Jiang Kai nodded and turned his gaze to Jiang Zhenbang, "Zhenbang, what are your thoughts?"

"Of course I agree with this!"

Jiang Zhenbang said, "I just don't understand why, with that Senior Jiang's methods and strength, he should have had a better choice. Why did he choose our Jiang family in the end?"

Jiang Kai glanced at Jiang Zhenbang and replied indifferently, "Senior Jiang has his own reasons for doing this. That's not something we should worry about right now."

Then, with a serious expression, he looked at everyone and said, "Since everyone has agreed to pledge allegiance to Senior Jiang, then no matter what happens in the future, do not regret it! From now on, we will be of one mind with Senior Jiang! Although our Jiang family is not a large family, we absolutely do not tolerate those who are disloyal, and we will not allow any traitors who sell out their masters for personal gain!"

"Furthermore, this matter is of great importance. It's best to keep it a secret for now, until our Jiang family has grown and prospered, to avoid any unforeseen complications!"

"Understood, Ancestor!"

The crowd responded in unison.

They also knew that once they embarked on this path, there was no going back.

Once they have the idea of ​​withdrawing halfway, regardless of other factors, the mysterious and powerful Senior Jiang alone will definitely not let the Jiang family off the hook.
