“It is not strange that you haven’t heard of this Physique. Your Chen Clan’s ancestral grandmother didn’t tell her descendants because this Physique essentially was impossible to appear again. Its possibility of appearance is even lower than an Immortal Physique!”
“Who are you?”
Chen Baojiao, in her shocked state, stared at Li Qiye and asked.
“Me? The Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect’s prime disciple, Li Qiye.”
Li Qiye grinned and sat down on a rock nearby. Then, he patted the spot next to him and said:
“Come sit down, talk with me about your Chen Clan.”
Chen Baojiao stared at Li Qiye, who was even younger than her. This seemingly harmless young man astonished her. He was unfathomably frightening.
Eventually, she slowly went over and sat down next to Li Qiye with some caution, then she coldly said:
“What do you want to say?”
Seeing Chen Baojiao acting as if she was afraid of a thief, Li Qiye couldn’t help but chuckle. Then, he leisurely said:
“There is no need to be so alarmed, we will just talk about family things.”
He looked at Chen Baojiao and continued:
“How is your Chen Clan right now in the Jewel Pillar Sacred School? Is it still ruling over the Jade Valley Country?”
“Ruling the Jade Valley Country?”
Chen Baojiao bitterly responded:
“The Jade Pillar Sacred School is in control of the Jade Valley Country. My Chen Clan is only a Regional Monarch of one direction inside the Jade Valley Country, our jurisdiction is no more than one hundred thousand miles.”
In the past, her Chen Clan’s ancestor was the Progenitor of the Jade Pillar Sacred School, and the Jade Valley Country belonged to her clan. Unfortunately, their Chen Clan had declined for a very long time. Even as the first branch of the Jade Pillar Sacred School, at the moment, they could only be a Regional Monarch of one direction.
Even though Chen Bao Jian was a princess, it was only bestowed to her later since she had values that could be exploited. Dao Child Shengtian wanted to marry her, and the Jade Pillar Sacred School wanted to be in-laws with the Heavenly God Sect. To the school, the ancestor of the Heavenly God Sect was a powerful backing! This was why, she, who was only a regional princess, became an official princess. It was only so that she would be worthy of Dao Child Shengtian.
To the school and to the country, she was only a tool for political marriage! She vehemently opposed this marriage and was not willing to be married to Dao Child Shengtian.
However, growing up in the Jade Pillar Sacred School and living in the Jade Valley Country, in such a powerful heritage, her face was not her own. Even when her parents wanted to shelter her, they were still not able to be the masters of this matter.
“One can only say that your ancestors were too honest.”
Li Qiye slightly shook his head and said:
“It is a shame for your ancestral grandmother’s efforts. In the end, even her dowry is gone. However, the good news is that at least her first branch is still lasting till this day.”
“What is the meaning behind your words?”
Hearing this, Chen Baojiao asked as she stared at Li Qiye with a bit of perplexity.
Li Qiye revealed a wide smile and said:
“Do you feel that your Chen Clan is named after your ancestor, or your ancestral grandmother?”
“Of course it was from my ancestor, his surname is Chen!”
Chen Baojiao angrily exclaimed:
“This is clearly written on the family’s historical annal.”
“This is where you are wrong.”
Li Qiye shook his head and said:
“To be exact, your ancestor followed the surname of your ancestral grandmother. At that time, your ancestor’s surname was not Chen. Even though he was born at the very bottom, he was not a bad man. His only flaw was that he was too honest of a person. That year, your ancestral grandmother was from the royal family of the Jade Valley Country. She was originally a princess and then became the Empress of the Jade Valley Country. Later on, your ancestral grandmother married your ancestor, and he was really in love with her, so he took her surname, Chen. They formed the first branch of your Chen Clan, and the vast territory of the entire Jade Valley Country became the dowry.”
Regarding her family name, she always thought that it was from her ancestor. However, regarding the legends of the Jade Valley Country, she truly had heard of some rumors before that actually referred to the matter that the country belonged to her ancestral grandmother.
However, heritages and the origin of the Jade Valley Country were destroyed under the contemporary ruling party of the Jade Pillar Sacred School. There were very few people that knew that the country originally belonged to the Chen Clan. They all assumed that after the Progenitor established the Jade Pillar Sacred School, he then created the Jade Valley Country.
“Later on, your ancestor established the Jade Pillar Sacred School.”
Li Qiye continued:
“This person, yah!
