I Open Treasure Chests in the Apocalypse

When Earth becomes a battlefield and killing becomes the norm, everyone eagerly awaits their desired items from treasure chests dropped by monsters. But he, having opened so many treasure chests, h...

Chapter 1140 The Underworld Pearl

"Sir, you have a truly genuine personality. To be honest, I'm really curious what kind of power could cultivate someone like you!" Jiang Yunchen couldn't help but exclaim.

Jiang Yuan acted casually, saying, "Can any powerful force be stronger than the Jiang family? I've seen no fewer than ten people at the Divine Realm. I'm curious about what kind of blessings the Jiang family's ancestors had that allowed them to continue such a powerful family lineage."

His words were beginning to align with his own objectives.

"You're such a fool! You still haven't asked for the master's name!"

When the family was mentioned, Jiang Yunchen suddenly remembered that his master had never mentioned any information about him since he came to the Jiang family, and he always wore a mask when entering and leaving the Jiang family.

"It's quite a coincidence that we're addressed as Mr. Jiang, since I also share the surname Jiang. I really like the title 'Mr. Jiang'!" Jiang Yuan smiled. "Mr" implies a distinguished person, and this title resonated with him deeply.

"Forehead!"

Jiang Yunchen's expression showed a hint of surprise, but he could only give an awkward smile. The other party was trying to hide his identity, and it would be impolite for him to delve any deeper.

“I remember my father always told me to trace my roots when he was alive. To be honest, I have tried for a long time, but I have never found my roots. So when I heard that there was a Jiang family in Ancheng, I felt a longing in my heart. Perhaps, in this Jiang family in Ancheng, I might be able to find the origin of my family!” Jiang Yuan said the reason he had thought of long ago.

He wasn't exactly lying; it's true his father is from the Jiang family, and he should trace his lineage back. Besides, he made it so obvious, practically wearing his intention to visit the ancestral home on his face. If the other party still didn't understand, they couldn't blame him for making the request.

"Sir, you're not joking, are you?" Jiang Yunchen's expression was beyond words; the coincidences had even made him suspicious.

Jiang Yuan knew that the fire wasn't hot enough, so he simply added fuel to the fire. He sighed and said, "To be honest, senior, my father once wanted me to practice ancient martial arts, but due to the lack of inheritance, he was unable to do so. I think I might be able to find a clan and revive the tradition of my Jiang family where men practice ancient martial arts and women practice Qi cultivation."

"Wait, you said your ancestors had a tradition of men practicing ancient martial arts and women practicing Qi cultivation?" Jiang Yunchen's hands trembled. Wasn't this the secret that their Jiang family kept hidden? Moreover, only the direct descendants of the Jiang family were qualified to follow this tradition.

“Yes!” Jiang Yuan nodded.

"That shouldn't be the case. I remember that the Jiang family doesn't have any other branches besides Lingyun, Zhongyuan, and Duhai?" Jiang Yunchen muttered to himself. Finally, a bold guess emerged in his mind: Could there be some branches that the Jiang family has overlooked?

"Originally, I came to the Jiang family this time to ask for an opportunity to enter the ancestral land to trace my origins. I didn't expect to run into you by chance and even used one of my great innate treasures to save your life!" Jiang Yuan emphasized the words "innate treasure" and "saved the senior" with extra emphasis.

He was already thinking to himself, "I've already given you such a hint, it would be unreasonable for you not to let me into the ancestral land!"

Jiang Yunchen: "..."

"Grandpa, our ancestral land opens tomorrow this year, this..." Jiang Dahai was also a little confused. Where did this kid come from? What a coincidence.

“That’s why I suspect the Jiang family is my kinsman’s family, because when my father was alive, the day for ancestral worship was always tomorrow. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come to the Jiang family so coincidentally!” Jiang Yuan said sincerely.

"hiss!"

Jiang Yunchen wondered what was going on today. It was too much of a coincidence, almost suspicious.

"Senior, I save you for no other reason than to enter the Jiang family's ancestral land and fulfill my father's last wish. That way, my innate treasure will be put to good use!" Jiang Yuan declared again. His goal was simply to enter the ancestral land. It was up to you whether you agreed or not!

"This...this, I need to discuss it with the leaders of the other two factions!" Jiang Yunchen didn't dare to agree on his own. The matter of the ancestral land was of great importance. If he brought in a foreigner with ulterior motives, he would be a sinner to the entire Jiang family.

"Okay, but senior, please don't make things too big. After all, this is just a guess, and I don't want the Jiang family to be disgraced if it turns out to be a false alarm!" Jiang Yuan had already planned his escape route.

His biggest worry in the Jiang family was encountering his closest relatives, especially his former grandfather, who was the head of the Zhongyuan Jiang family. If he got involved, he might uncover some shady dealings.

"Okay, you rest here for now, I'll go and discuss it with them, and I'll give you a definite answer by tomorrow morning!"

Jiang Yunchen finished speaking very solemnly and then left quickly, because this was also an opportunity for the Jiang family. The Jiang family did not have many geniuses, and if there was a peerless genius who had been wandering outside, it would be a blessing for the Jiang family.

He couldn't even imagine how significant a breakthrough a genius who could grasp the mysteries of life and death at the fifth level of the True Spirit Realm would be to the entire Imperial Star.

"Sir, let me take you back to rest!" Jiang Dahai didn't know how to address the True Spirit Realm expert in front of him. After going around in circles, this gentleman in front of him might actually be his junior. Isn't that dramatic?

“No rush, I’ve been sleeping for most of the day, I need to stretch my legs! By the way, do you have a shooting range?” Jiang Yuan asked in a flash of inspiration.

His God-Slaying Bow was itching to fire. Even if he couldn't draw the bow to boost his stats, he could at least draw it solidly, since it would only consume a little divine energy.

"range?"

...

"Sir, this is our firing range, but it's shared by three factions, so minor frictions often arise." Jiang Dahai smiled awkwardly.

"Friction? What friction is there in this place?!" Jiang Yuan looked at the shooting range, which was as big as a hundred football fields, and wondered.
