Chapter 76: Persuading Master to Take Action

Jiang Family’s Holy Lord.
He was none other than Jiang Yan’s father.
As the head of the Jiang Family, he was naturally a Tribulation Crossing Celestial Lord. He held Murong Longcheng in high esteem—not only was Murong Longcheng one of the family’s retainers, but he was also Jiang Haotian’s son-in-law, the one he valued most.
Barely over two thousand years old, possessing the bloodline of the Dragon Master, he had even tamed a blue-eyed azure flood dragon as a pet.
He was destined to be one of the chief retainers in the future.
In Jiang Haotian’s eyes, Murong Longcheng’s importance even surpassed that of Fu Yuanshan, another Tribulation Crossing Celestial Lord.
Beside him, kneeling, was a woman in her thirties, radiating a mature charm, her belly swollen with child, tears streaming down her face in utter heartbreak. “Father, you must avenge Longcheng,” she sobbed.
Her name was Jiang Ni, Jiang Haotian’s eldest daughter, Murong Longcheng’s wife, and expecting a child.
She had been weeping endlessly, her breath barely steady.
Jiang Haotian exuded a chilling murderous aura, but seeing his daughter in such distress, he still comforted her: “Rise. Longcheng was my son-in-law—a son-in-law is half a son. His death cannot go unpunished. I will see justice done for him. No matter who is responsible, I will tear them to pieces.”
“Your most important task now is to take care of your pregnancy, not to harm the child.”
“Servants!”
“Investigate for me: who killed Longcheng, and why did he leave the Jiang Family?”
“Master!”
A subordinate quickly reported to Jiang Haotian.
“It was Chief Fu who dispatched Master Murong to investigate his son’s death. The rumor is that his son died in Sword Province.”
“Fu Wangtian,” Jiang Haotian immediately recalled.
“Fu Yuanshan even sought the Sunfire of Hao from the family for his son, but he too is dead. So now, the Sunfire of Hao has fallen into someone else’s hands.”
“No one informed me of such a significant event?”
“Very well. Very well! A minor Sword Province, the weakest of the Nine Provinces of East Wilderness, and yet someone dared kill Longcheng.”
“I want to see what kind of existence this Sword Province harbors.”
“Where is Jiang Ruyi?”
“Holy Lord.”
A middle-aged man stepped forward, his cultivation at the late Grand Completion stage.
A direct descendant of the Jiang Family.
Jiang Haotian commanded, “Go to Sword Province, but be cautious. Take the Hao Sun Cauldron with you. Even Longcheng died there, so it is likely Sword Province hides a Tribulation Crossing Celestial Lord. Find them for me.”
“Yes.”
The Hao Sun Cauldron.
It was one of the replicas of the Divine Farmer Cauldron, the imperial weapon of the Jiang Family, a Tribulation Crossing Celestial Lord-level treasure.

Nurtured by the Jiang Family, their bloodline could unleash its full power, equaling the strike of a Tribulation Crossing Celestial Lord.
With the Hao Sun Cauldron in hand, Jiang Ruyi could even contend with Fu Yuanshan.
Such was the might of the imperial clan.
The imperial bloodline.
Though inherited at a lesser grade, not as potent as many special bloodlines—like the Dragon Master bloodline—each possessed its unique qualities. For example, treasures like the Hao Sun Cauldron could only be wielded by those with the Jiang Family’s imperial bloodline.
Just as the Dragon Master bloodline not only boasted a high rank but also the ability to command true dragons,
The Jiang Family’s bloodline enabled them to wield the full power of such treasures.
...
Jiang Ruyi departed.
Deep within the Qin Mountains,
After months of cultivation, Han Feng not only recovered his strength but advanced even further, stepping into the peak of Foundation Establishment—he could form a Golden Core at any moment.
From then on, he could swallow a Golden Core and claim, “My fate is mine, not Heaven’s.”
More importantly, under the guidance of the Elder of Heart Demons, he succeeded in cultivating and mastering the power of the mind, opening the Eye of the Mind.
With the Eye of the Mind achieved, Han Feng grew restless.
Because of his system.
The Pursuit of Women System.
Whenever he won over a beauty, he would receive a reward.
Having tasted the system’s rewards, who could endure a life of abstinence?
“No, I must leave the Qin Mountains. Only women are the motivation for my cultivation, only women offer hope for my revenge. Without them, if I follow the normal path, how many years would it take to avenge myself and kill Chu Feng?”
“He’s already at the Divine Transformation stage, while I’m only at Foundation Establishment.”
Resolute,
Han Feng could no longer focus on cultivation.
Naturally, none of this escaped the Elder of Heart Demons.
That elder possessed Combined Body cultivation.
“You want to leave?”
One day, the Elder directly asked Han Feng.
Han Feng immediately knelt before him, silent.
The Elder sighed, “I thought you could cultivate with me peacefully, but you cannot settle your mind. Do you realize that the methods of the mind require tranquility for progress?”
“You may leave, but you must give me an irresistible reason.”

“Don’t try to deceive me. Now that you have cultivated the Eye of the Mind, you should know lies are useless against me.”
Han Feng was momentarily speechless.
The Elder gazed at him calmly, “I know you possess a great secret, related to your system.”
“Don’t be surprised. I sensed it deep within your mind, and it concerns the pursuit of women.”
With the conversation at this point,
Han Feng had nothing left to hide. He revealed his system to the Elder.
The Elder was utterly shocked, exclaiming, “Who would have thought such fortune existed in the world? Pursue women and earn rewards.”
Han Feng said, “Master, I wish to ask your help. Let me forcibly claim some women, subdue them, and obtain system rewards.”
“To be honest, I once forcibly claimed an S-class beauty, and the reward was a pair of imperial-grade Plum Blossom Eyes and a legacy in formation arts at the level of Celestial Emperor.”
“Is this true?”
The Elder was completely stunned.
Celestial Emperor-level rewards.
Divine powers, formation arts inheritance.
He knew his own Heart Scripture was only at the Combined Body level.
Han Feng realized he could not hide anything from the Elder.
The power of the mind was too adept at reading hearts—even with enough strength, others could have no secrets before you.
If there was a weakness to the power of the mind, it was how difficult it was to master.
As rare as a holy body,
As rare as a saint-level bloodline,
One in a hundred million.
As the Elder said,
Having lived over four thousand years, Han Feng was only the second person he had met capable of cultivating the power of the mind.
Clearly, the conditions were extraordinary.
Difficult, extremely difficult.
Since it could not be hidden, there was no need to try. Why not recruit him into his own camp, let him help pursue women, complete system tasks, and earn system rewards?
System rewards—he himself did not know what they might be, but he could always share a little benefit when the time came.
Thinking this,
Han Feng continued, “Master, earlier I encountered an SS-class beauty and tried to win her, but provoked Chu Feng of the Supreme Dao Sect. That’s why my eyes were gouged out and I was abandoned in Sword Valley. Had it not been for you, I would surely have died.”
