Not long after that elder entered the Inner Hall, he immediately came out. He walked towards Gu Mu and said, "Gu Mu, bring your kid over now. The Patriarch wants to see him."
"Alright, I'll go now."
Gu Mu was overjoyed. He knew that Gu Xuantian would definitely want to see Jiang Chen. After all, no one would be able to accept such a huge betrothal gift. How could a person who could take out such a gift be an ordinary person? Even if Gu Xuantian didn't betroth Wu Ningzhu to Jiang Chen, he still wanted to see this young talent who had recently caused an uproar in the Pure Land. Ancient people were very clear about the current situation of the eight great clans. If someone could disrupt the situation, it would also be what the Ancient people wished to see.
Gu Mu quickly returned to his residence and brought Jiang Chen to the Inner Hall. On the way to the Inner Hall, they coincidentally met Wu Ningzhu who was rushing over after hearing the news. Seeing Jiang Chen, Wu Ningzhu's face immediately revealed joy.
"I knew it. You wouldn't just watch me marry another man."
Wu Ningzhu smiled sweetly. That beautiful smile made the entire world look beautiful.
"Even if I didn't come, Sister Ning wouldn't marry another man."
Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders. Wu Ningzhu's heart towards him was unique. From the moment he unveiled Wu Ningzhu's veil, he was the only man that Wu Ningzhu had set her eyes on. Furthermore, in Wu Ningzhu's heart, there wasn't a man more outstanding than Jiang Chen.
"Hmph! Are you that confident? "
Wu Ningzhu snorted.
"When has your husband's confidence ever been lacking?"
Jiang Chen wasn't going to be polite. He immediately pulled Wu Ningzhu into his embrace, causing Wu Ningzhu to giggle. In Wu Ningzhu's heart, there was nothing to be embarrassed about being hugged by her man. In fact, it was a form of happiness. She asked Gu Mu to look for Jiang Chen because she was sure that Jiang Chen would definitely come after knowing that Gu Xuantian was going to betroth her in three days.
Cough cough …
Gu Mu immediately coughed. This pair of lovebirds had completely treated him as air.
Jiang Chen and Wu Ningzhu laughed. Thereafter, Jiang Chen released Wu Ningzhu. He had to consider this old fellow's feelings.
"Young Master, Young Miss, let's hurry to the Inner Hall."
Gu Mu said with a sigh.
"Little Chenzi, I don't know what the patriarch thinks of you coming here to propose marriage. He has already agreed to marry me to Gu Liufeng and released my mother. Now that you suddenly appeared, I'm afraid …"
Wu Ningzhu didn't finish her words, but the meaning she wanted to express was very clear. She knew Jiang Chen's ability, but after all, this was the territory of the Ancient people. There were so many experts here that Jiang Chen couldn't do anything here. If she was alone, she could directly leave the Ancient people and go far away with Jiang Chen. But now, she was most worried about Goulan and her mother. Goulan was the main purpose of her coming to the Divine Land.
"Don't worry, I'm here."
Jiang Chen held Wu Ningzhu's hand. Feeling his broad and strong palm, Wu Ningzhu's heart gradually calmed down.
To a woman, no matter how strong and independent she was, she would always need someone to rely on. A man was a woman's reliance, and Jiang Chen was her reliance. He was a man who would never allow his woman to suffer any grievances. Jiang Chen was Wu Ningzhu's reliance.
In the Inner Hall of the Ancient people, seven or eight people were sitting. All of them were Great Sages of the Ancient people. They all had high status and power. The most important person sitting at the top looked about forty years old. He had a medium build and wore a very clean blue shirt, giving people a very neat feeling. He just sat there, giving people the feeling that he was as tall as a mountain. He didn't look angry, but his eyebrows were full of domineering aura.
This person was the patriarch of the Ancient people, Gu Xuantian, the first person of the Ancient people in the Pure Land. When Gu Mu brought Jiang Chen over, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Chen. There was a trace of surprise in their eyes. They didn't expect that Jiang Chen was so young.
"You are Jiang Chen?"
One of the elders opened his mouth and asked.
"Yes, I am Jiang Chen. Today, I come to propose marriage. I believe that the patriarch of the Ancient people should know that I and Wu Ningzhu have been engaged for a long time. If Gu Mu didn't go to Danyuan City to stir things up, we would have been married by now. Therefore, it is reasonable for me to propose marriage today."
Jiang Chen didn't beat around the bush and said straightforwardly. "How dare you!
Jiang Chen, who do you think you are? How dare you speak like this in the Inner Hall of the Ancient people. "
An elder immediately shouted at Jiang Chen.
"I, Jiang Chen, never like to beat around the bush. I'll be frank with you. I came here with enough sincerity. Here are 1.5 billion high grade True Meta Stones, three Nine Solar Lightning-Dragon Pills, and ten bottles of Nine Solar Holy Water. Don't tell me that I have to be humble when I come here to propose? If you think that me bringing so many things to the Inner Hall is disrespectful to you, then I, Jiang Chen, have nothing to say. "
Jiang Chen waved his hand and took out a golden Interspatial Ring, three Nine Suns Les Rond Pill and ten bottles of Nine Suns Holy Water. They floated in the air above the Inner Hall. The Nine Suns Holy Water emitted a strong aura, causing the air in the Inner Hall to ripple. Not to mention other people, even the Great Sages on the scene couldn't help but feel excited when they saw these treasures.
The elder who scolded Jiang Chen before didn't say anything. Jiang Chen was right. No one would bring these things to disrespect the Ancient people. Any of these things proved that Jiang Chen was sincere enough.
1.5 billion high grade True Meta Stones was a fortune that made people salivate. As for the Nine Suns Les Rond Pill, it was a legendary pill. It was the first time for the people on the scene to see it. Their eyes fell on the three pills. They saw that the pills were full of medicinal efficacy. There was a flickering shadow of a dragon and a deep rumbling sound of thunder. The medicinal efficacy was extremely strong. It was exactly the same as the legendary Nine Suns Les Rond Pill. Such a pill would have a great effect even for Great Sages like them. As for the ten bottles of Nine Suns Holy Water, they were also rare sacred objects. With so much Nine Suns Holy Water, it was unknown how many talented disciples the Ancient people could cultivate with it.
At the same time, they were also surprised by Jiang Chen's performance. This was the inner palace of the Ancient people. No young man could be so calm in this place. His calmness was absolutely not an act. In the eyes of a Great Saint, all pretense was useless.
Even if they didn't want to admit it, they knew very well that no one in the younger generation of the Ancient people could be compared to Jiang Chen.
"Jiang Chen, where did you get this Nine Suns Les Rond Pill?"
A Fourth Grade Great Saint elder asked.
"The Nine Suns Les Rond Pill was concocted by me. This pill requires a large amount of Nine Suns Holy Water and the fusion of different medicinal herbs. The most important thing is that it has to be concocted under the heavenly tribulation. I am an alchemist who has gone through four lightning tribulations."
Jiang Chen didn't hide anything. He wanted the Ancient people to see his ability and raise his status. He wanted the Ancient people to know that they wouldn't suffer a loss if they befriended him.
Wu Ningzhu who was at the side was stunned. Her pair of beautiful eyes fell on Jiang Chen's handsome face. She couldn't move her eyes away. She had never thought that Jiang Chen would take out such a precious thing for her. A man could give up everything for her. That kind of happiness was like an unstoppable flood to a woman.
"What?"
This time, even Gu Xuantian almost exclaimed. They thought that the Nine Suns Les Rond Pill was obtained by Jiang Chen in a fortuitous encounter. They had never thought that it was concocted by Jiang Chen himself. Moreover, they could feel that Jiang Chen wasn't lying. He wouldn't lie and there was no need for him to lie.
Everyone on the scene had experienced the heavenly tribulation before. They knew how terrifying it was. When they advanced to the Great Saint realm, the terrifying Saint Tribulation almost took their lives. Jiang Chen was merely a Ninth Grade Minor Saint, but he had already experienced so many heavenly tribulations. This meant that Jiang Chen was a heaven defying existence. Only a heaven defying existence could trigger the heavenly tribulation. Ancient people had never triggered a heavenly tribulation before they advanced to the Great Saint realm.
To be able to concoct pills in the midst of a heavenly tribulation was an inconceivable thing. Based on this point alone, Jiang Chen's concoction skill was enough to kill anyone in Dan Family. Ancient people had no reason to reject such a peerless genius.
"Jiang Chen, did you say that you killed Shi Han?"
Gu Xuantian didn't keep Jiang Chen's betrothal gift. Although these treasures were very important to the Ancient people, it was still a betrothal gift after all. If he kept it, it would mean that he had agreed to marry Wu Ningzhu to Jiang Chen. If that happened, he wouldn't be able to explain it to Gu Liufeng. Moreover, he had already said that he needed Wu Ningzhu to marry Gu Liufeng before he released Goulan.
"Of course, on the way to the Ancient people, Shi Han wanted to kill me, but I killed him instead."
Jiang Chen turned his palm again. Shi Han's head and the stone spear appeared at the same time. The head and the stone spear automatically flew to Gu Xuantian.
Seeing that it was indeed Shi Han's head, Gu Xuantian's emotions fluctuated. He stood up from his seat and stared at Shi Han's head and the stone spear. It was as if a stone had been lifted off his heart.
"He is only a Seventh Grade Minor Saint, but he was able to kill the second ranked Shi Han on the Sky Ranking. This is unbelievable."
"That's right. Such a monstrous genius is too heaven defying. There has never been such a genius in the history of Saint Origin World."
"He is still so young and a powerful alchemist. It's hard to imagine how far he will go in the future. Now that Dan Family has befriended him, if we, the Ancient people, befriended him, it won't bring any harm to the future of our Ancient people."
