Chapter 1081: Chapter 314: The Jiang Family Has a Daughter Named Wuyou, Men of the World Feel Ashamed in Her Presence

It was probably because of Jiang Wuyou’s status that Jiang Wang had always overlooked her cultivation.

The position and title of the Hua Ying Palace Master itself no longer needed to be supported by strength alone.

However, if one delved deeper, being the Third Imperial Princess of the Qi Royal Family, Jiang Wuyou seemed indeed unremarkable in terms of cultivation.

The Crown Prince Jiang Wuhua seemed quite mediocre but also possessed the cultivation of the Outer Tower Summit. Her two brothers, Jiang Wuji and Jiang Wuqi, now held realms that did not fall short of hers.

Jiang Wuqi was profound and unfathomable, best left unmentioned for now.

At the time in Seven Stars Valley, Jiang Wuji was still a notch weaker than Lei Zhanqian. From the current perspective, it seemed like one could say, "Nothing more than that." However, Jiang Wang always felt that Jiang Wuji’s strength was not that simple. That Fangtian Ghost God Halberd of his was truly stunning. Perhaps when he exerted his full power, it would be beyond the Inner Mansion.

And Jiang Wuyou...

Reflecting now on that time at the End of the World Platform, when Ji Shaoqing wanted to escape, why did Gu Huaixin immediately intervene when Jiang Wuyou smashed down with her Fangtian Ghost God Halberd?

Besides giving Ji Shaoqing a chance to fight with dignity, there was also another possibility—

That was, with one strike from Jiang Wuyou, Ji Shaoqing would die!

Jiang Wang knew Ji Shaoqing’s strength well. Although he had personally defeated and killed the man, he did not believe he could kill him in one move.

Yet Jiang Wuyou, who was also in the Inner Mansion Realm, seemed to be able to accomplish this. At least in Gu Huaixin’s eyes... It seemed possible.

So just how strong was Jiang Wuyou, who was in the Inner Mansion Realm?

The position as the heir to the country was certainly not determined by cultivation alone.

But that position involved competition in all aspects. If Jiang Wuyou were not strong enough, and the future not broad enough, leaving such a huge gap, without an overwhelming advantage in other areas... How could she compete with other palaces and not fall behind?

Even at many times, she appeared more assertive and more pro-active.

Abroad, she could mobilize undercover agents at the level of the Diao Hai Building servants, have a say on JueMing Island, and even persuade Qi Xiao to act.

Her influence was clearly significant.

On what basis?

Not to mention other aspects, in terms of cultivation, on what basis?

"What path?" Jiang Wang asked.

Zhongxuan Sheng said, "She is trying to train a true martial body, to integrate martial arts into the pathway, to conduct martial arts through the way. Incorporating the Martial Arts System into the existing cultivation system! Utilizing cultivation from Teng Long, Inner Mansion, Outer Building, to God Arrives, Dongzhen, Yan Dao, to harness the power of Martial Arts!"

Jiang Wang was shockingly incredulous.

He now knew that Martial Arts was a brand-new path. Many honorable and fearsome individuals were climbing this path, forging a view for themselves, setting new peaks for the Human Race.

But now...

While Martial Arts was still being explored,

There were already people researching how to integrate Martial Arts into the existing cultivation system.

Just like during the Flying Sword Era, the Art of the Flying Sword evolved into the Art of the Way of the Sword.

Jiang Wuyou was also among those who believed in the future of Martial Arts, but her belief was more thorough. Before Martial Arts had even succeeded, she had already begun to explore the possibilities of integrating Martial Arts with the current cultivation system.

This was incredibly difficult.

How difficult?

Just consider one point.

With Jiang Wuyou’s envied cultivation talent, primarily cultivating the supreme cultivation technique of the Qi Royal Family, the Esteemed Zihua Celestial Canon, which included two parts: Heavenly Scripture and Earth Weave.

Whether it was following the conventional route of cultivation, or focusing on Martial Arts, her current achievements would at least be at God Arrives, or even Martial Dao’s 21st Heaven.

However, now, in her thirties, no longer considered a young prodigy, she was still within the Inner Mansion Realm!

And yet, she was still so spirited and impressive, with no hint of being convoluted or defeated.

Jiang Wang occasionally visited her at Huaying Palace, where she was either practicing with a sword or a spear.

You could never sense the setbacks she was facing.

Especially since she was vying for the Crown Prince’s position, countless eyes from all over the court and field watched her. Yet, she struggled amidst the confines of the Inner Mansion, traversing a difficult path.

But whenever Jiang Wuyou was seen, she appeared noble, majestic, and exceptionally heroic.

She resolutely walked her path, unwavering at any moment.

How strong must her heart be?

What kind of determination and courage must this take?

Indeed, it was... admirable!

Jiang Wang once again felt truly that this was a dazzling world, shimmering with stars!

With so many radiant figures!

"Lord Huaying has never told me about these things," Jiang Wang mentioned with indescribable emotions, "learning this now truly fills me with respect."

Zhongxuan Sheng said, "As it concerns the matter of Huaying Palace, it’s naturally not spread. However, people in Linzi’s top circles are aware, though few believed she could accomplish it before. As for now... few think she can’t. Everyone understands it’s only a matter of time."

That path she’s taking, unprecedented and unique, must already be shaping up. Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been that strike at End of the World Platform.

Jiang Wang thought, his mind deeply stirred.

However, Zhongxuan Sheng remembered the conversation Jiang Wuyou had with the Daqi Queen during the master’s ceremony that day.

Naturally, such a dialogue would not be divulged, and while Jiang Wang didn’t know this, as a legitimate son of the famous Zhong Xuan Family, he naturally had ways to hear of it.

The Queen had attempted to have Jiang Wuyou accept Jiang Wang as a Prince Consort.

Jiang Wuyou had said that day—"Jiang Wang certainly has the demeanor of a hero, but your son also harbors the ambition of a hero, and this is not something trivial to be managed!"

At that moment, even the Daqi Queen couldn’t say "no." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Who could say Jiang Wuyou wasn’t a hero?

Even Zhongxuan Sheng, though he never meddled in the royal struggle, held great respect for Jiang Wuyou.

Yan Fu, beaten by Jiang Wuyou till he had to scurry and hide, was it really just about being defeated?

There was a poem at the time—"Jiang has a daughter named Wuyou, before whom men of the world might shy away in disgrace!"

Sometimes, when he saw Jiang Wuyou, he really felt ashamed!

"I’m really looking forward to the day when Lord Huaying’s true martial body is cultivated," Jiang Wang said.

"Looking forward to it indeed," Zhongxuan Sheng changed the subject, his words heavy with meaning, "you only have an agreement for one matter, don’t sacrifice your whole life for it. Becoming a Prince Consort, no matter how talented you are, you will only fade into the background."

"..." Jiang Wang was somewhat speechless: "I really want to crack open your head and see what you think about every day!"

But facing Shisi’s gaze...

He could only helplessly wave his hand: "Really, too much idle talk!"

Jiang Wang truly couldn’t understand why this heavy man could stretch any topic so far.

Mentioning the true martial body one moment and then Prince Consort the next!

But what he didn’t know was, this matter had indeed been brought up before, and if not for Jiang Wuyou’s firm attitude...

Zhongxuan Sheng smirked mysteriously, not elaborating further, then switched the topic: "You knew something was off with Zhang Song back in Yunwu Mountain, didn’t you?"

"At the time at Yunwu Mountain..." Jiang Wang didn’t conceal anything, actually a bit surprised, "How did you know?"

Zhongxuan Sheng leaned back, smiling proudly, "Just knew it!"
