Transmigration: A person in a martial arts world, cultivating to ascend to immortality
Chapter 241 An Unexpected Benefactor, the Shock of the Uncle and Nephew
Just as the Jiang family was making intensive preparations for moving into Baichuan City, Jianmen Palace was also preparing to welcome the Jiang family.
Under Lan Qiwen's instructions, Lan Chen had already purchased a sufficiently large house and shop for the Jiang family in a prime location in Baichuan City.
All the facilities in the house and shop have been set up and are ready for the Jiang family to move in as soon as they arrive.
Not only that, Lan Chen also sent his disciples to keep watch along the only route to Baichuan City, so that he would know as soon as the Jiang family's forces appeared and make preparations to welcome them in advance.
Although Jianmen Palace has confirmed its alliance with the Jiang family, Lan Qiwen, as the palace master, would not lower himself to personally handle the matter of welcoming the Jiang family.
Unless Jiang Yuchuan is leading the team, the Jiang family is not worth him doing such a thing now.
Although Lan Qiwen will not personally intervene, entrusting this matter to his nephew Lan Chen is already a great favor to the Jiang family.
Although Lan Chen is related to Lan Qiwen by blood, he was able to become a true disciple in the Sword Gate Palace entirely because of his own talent and strength, not because of any powerful connections.
Lan Chen, who is now in the mid-stage of the True Embryo Realm, has long been firmly established as the number one disciple of the true lineage, and his strength is even stronger than some elders.
Lan Qiwen, who has no children, has long been grooming Lan Chen as his successor. When Lan Chen breaks through to the Mountain-Shaking Realm, he will immediately abdicate and pass the Palace Master position to him.
This matter was no secret within the Sword Gate Palace. Therefore, Lan Chen, who was already regarded as the young palace master by everyone, held a higher status than many elders.
Lan Chen was naturally aware of the heavy responsibility that was about to fall on his shoulders. Therefore, after listening to his uncle recount how powerful the senior who supported the Jiang family was, he naturally placed matters related to the Jiang family as his top priority.
After all, if his arrangements could satisfy that senior, he might be able to gain some benefits from him, which would be of great benefit to both himself and the Sword Gate Palace.
After everything was prepared, Lan Chen waited for about ten more days before finally receiving news from the Jiang family.
Knowing that the Jiang family's forces would arrive in Baichuan City in less than two hours, Lan Chen immediately led the four elders and twenty inner disciples who had been notified in advance to the city gate of Baichuan City to welcome them.
All the factions within Shirakawa Castle were puzzled by the actions of the Sword Gate Palace.
Lan Chen's name is known to everyone among the bronze-level forces in Baichuan City.
For Lan Chen to personally appear, along with four True Embryo Realm elders waiting at the city gate, could it be that some extraordinary person is coming?
With this in mind, all parties were immediately filled with curiosity and secretly sent spies to keep an eye on the area, wanting to see what kind of person or force could attract such attention from the Sword Gate Palace.
Lan Chen had naturally noticed the actions of those forces behind the scenes long ago, but he didn't care at all; on the contrary, he was happy about it.
After seeing the Jiang family's good relations with Jianmen Palace, these forces naturally dared not to plot against the Jiang family anymore, let alone suppress them.
the other side.
Led by Jiang Fengqing and Jiang Chengxuan, and secretly followed by Jiang Wei, the Jiang family members had already made their way to the main road leading to Baichuan City.
Besides Jiang Fengqing and his two companions, Jiang Kai sent a total of sixty clansmen on this trip.
These sixty people were all carefully selected by Jiang Kai and Jiang Zhenbang, and are members who are absolutely loyal to the family.
In addition to these sixty-odd clansmen, there were ten horse-drawn carts loaded with goods in the procession.
The carriage was filled with local specialties from the vicinity of Taihei Town, which were intended to be sold in Shirakawa Castle.
Looking at the massive white city wall towering in his sight, Jiang Chengxuan couldn't help but mutter curiously, "I wonder what the identity of the noble person that Senior Jiang mentioned is, and whether he is already in Baichuan City."
Jiang Fengqing, who was standing to the side, had the same question in his mind.
Excluding Jiang Wei, he was the main person in charge of this trip and also the most senior among the group. Therefore, as they got closer to Baichuan City, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
After traveling for about half an hour, Jiang Fengqing and Jiang Chengxuan, who were at the front of the group, finally saw Lan Chen and the others who had been waiting outside the city gate.
Both of them were taken aback when they saw the distinctive outfits worn by Lan Chen and the others.
"They're from Jianmen Palace!"
Why would people from Jianmen Palace appear at the gates of Shirakawa Castle?
Jiang Fengqing asked in bewilderment, "Did they come here specifically to ambush us?"
"If that's the case, what should we do?"
Jiang Chengxuan also looked worried. "The important person that Senior Jiang mentioned, could it be that he hasn't arrived yet?"
Just as the two were frowning, unsure whether to advance or retreat, Jiang Wei walked past the crowd to their side and whispered:
"Don't panic, just keep moving forward. I didn't sense any hostility from that group of people."
As a True Embryo Realm cultivator, Jiang Wei's perception was naturally much sharper than that of Jiang Fengqing and Jiang Chengxuan.
Hearing Jiang Wei's words, the two breathed a slight sigh of relief, but they were still a little uneasy.
And so, the group finally arrived at the gates of Shirakawa Castle.
"Perhaps these people from Jianmen Palace are not here for our Jiang family?"
Just as this thought arose in Jiang Chengxuan's mind, he suddenly saw the Jianmen Palace members standing at the city gate start to move.
In particular, the man standing at the very front, who looked to be about the same age as them, actually smiled at them.
That's right—it's a smile!
"Could it be the distinguished guests from the Jiang family of Taiping Town in person?"
Upon hearing Lan Chen's very polite inquiry, Jiang Fengqing and Jiang Chengxuan looked at each other, completely baffled, almost thinking that there was something wrong with their ears.
However, to avoid being impolite, Jiang Fengqing immediately stepped forward, clasped his hands in greeting, and replied, "I am Jiang Fengqing, and I am here on the orders of Senior Jiang to lead my clan to Baichuan City."
Upon hearing the name 'Senior Jiang', Lan Chen's smile widened. He stepped forward, clasped his hands, and said with a smile, "My name is Lan Chen, and I am a true disciple of the Sword Gate Palace. I am here on the orders of my uncle, Lan Qiwen, to welcome the Jiang family."
'True disciple', 'Uncle Lan Qiwen', 'Welcoming the arrival of the Jiang family'.
With these words piled up together, even if Jiang Fengqing was slow to react, he would now know that the benefactor Jiang Jianbei was talking about was actually Jianmen Palace!
Let alone him, even the ancestor would never have thought of this!
"So it's Master Lan in person! A pleasure to meet you!"
While admiring Jiang Yuchuan's unpredictable methods, Jiang Feng exchanged pleasantries with Lan Chen and then introduced Jiang Chengxuan.
When the two heard Lan Chen say that Jianmen Palace had already prepared a residence and shops for the Jiang family in Baichuan City, their shock reached an even higher level.
What merit or ability do they possess!
The fact that a power of the Jianmen Palace's stature would personally come out to welcome them and even spend a fortune to buy them houses and shops is something that even a beggar on the street wouldn't believe.
And so, Jiang Fengqing and Jiang Chengxuan, seemingly floating on clouds, led the Jiang family into Baichuan City under Lan Chen's guidance.
