Jiang Wudao's expression turned serious as he pulled out a completely black tiger tally: "Since you've chosen to fulfill your marriage contract with the Wan Family, you'll inevitably be drawn into some disputes."
"This tiger tally is the authority to mobilize our Jiang Family's hidden forces."
"You're grown up now, and it's time you took on some responsibilities."
"Now, Dad is giving it to you; from now on, you will control it."
Jiang Junyi took the heavy tiger tally from his father's hand.
"What are our hidden forces called?" Jiang Junyi couldn't help but ask.
"White Court."
Jiang Junyi was stunned. 'Holy cow, how does that name match my wife's organization so perfectly?'
Thinking of this, he smiled with satisfaction, 'It seems Qingyun and I are a match made in heaven.'
Jiang Wudao and Zhao Ningyu looked at the strange, happy expression on their son's face.
"Tomorrow, Uncle Wu will take you to the White Court's base. The Jiang Family's fiercest and most invincible organization is now yours!" Jiang Wudao patted Jiang Junyi's shoulder.
Hearing this, Jiang Junyi's expression grew serious: "Don't worry, Dad, I definitely won't disgrace the White Court's name."
"Oh right, there's one more thing to give you."
...
Meanwhile, Wan Qingyun was reading, the curtains gently swaying in the night breeze.
Suddenly, the room became silent, even the sound of the wind disappeared.
Wan Qingyun, being blind, had acute hearing, and at this instant, she sensed something was wrong.
Why was the room so quiet?
Immediately after, a black shadow rippled out from the floor in front of Wan Qingyun.
An elegant figure wearing a goat mask and a suit slowly emerged from the shadow.
"Who?!"
Wan Qingyun keenly perceived that someone had appeared silently in front of her.
The key was that she was utterly defenseless.
At a time like this, if an intruder broke in, she would have no means of resistance.
Wan Qingyun's heart was anxious, but her face remained calm.
This was not the time to show fear.
However, just as she was thinking about how to escape, a deep voice rang out:
"My Lord, you need not be afraid."
"I am your most loyal servant, and will be your sharpest blade."
"Thump."
Capricorn knelt on one knee, hand over her heart.
"Capricorn, Star Lord of the Black Palace, greets the Lord."
Huh? Huh???
"You... wait, what do you mean by all this? I don't understand." Wan Qingyun was utterly confused.
Someone suddenly breaks into your house late at night and then says they're your servant and blade.
It's very strange, okay!
Capricorn raised her head and looked at Wan Qingyun: "My Lord, you should possess a black star pendant."
Wan Qingyun's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.
This was something only she knew, yet the person in front of her could reveal it in one sentence.
Thus, Wan Qingyun began to believe Capricorn's words a little.
She took out a pendant from a secret compartment in her desk drawer.
It was indeed the black star.
At this moment, the black star was flickering with a faint black light. Wan Qingyun couldn't see it, but she could feel waves of warmth.
"How did you know?" she couldn't help but ask.
But Capricorn didn't answer the question; instead, she urged:
"Grasp it! My Lord."
Wan Qingyun took a deep breath. Although she didn't know what was happening, she vaguely felt that this matter seemed connected to what happened back then.
Because at that time, she clearly heard a sentence—'Destiny cycles, and your desires will eventually be punished by the Black Star.'
This pendant was also something she had hidden for ten years.
Wan Qingyun held it tightly.
In an instant, streams of black energy mixed with shimmering starlight flowed around her!
At this moment, she seemed like the master of fate.
Black starlight surged into Wan Qingyun's body, and waves of power continuously erupted from her being.
After a long while, the surging starlight dissipated.
Wan Qingyun gently clenched her fist; power filled her.
She wasn't some naive novice; on the contrary, Wan Qingyun knew many unknown secrets.
For example, the extraordinary power that existed in this world—Martial Artists.
Unranked, Ranked, Houtian, Xiantian, Little Grandmaster, Grandmaster.
These were the martial artist realms she currently knew.
And Wan Qingyun, having received the power, stepped over two realms, reaching Houtian.
She carefully felt her calves again; there was still no sensation...
Her eyes also hadn't regained sight.
Wan Qingyun felt a little lost inside, but she quickly dispelled that emotion.
So many years had passed; it was no big deal.
This also indirectly reflected that those people from back then were absolutely extraordinary.
Wan Qingyun looked in Capricorn's direction: "Tell me in detail about the Black Palace."
Capricorn knelt on one knee, her voice subtly tinged with excitement: "Yes, My Lord!"
...
Meanwhile, Jiang Junyi had returned to his residence.
He was sitting on the sofa, holding a book, his eyes slightly unfocused.
Just after Jiang Wudao gave him the tiger tally, he also handed him a cultivation manual.
He said it was some top-tier cultivation technique passed down from the Jiang Family ancestors.
Being in such a wealthy family, Jiang Junyi naturally knew about the existence of extraordinary powers.
He himself was even a Houtian martial artist.
However...
"Why is the name of a top-tier cultivation technique 'Dragon and Phoenix Auspicious Union Cultivation'?" Jiang Junyi threw the book onto the floor.
I ask you, is this cultivation technique legitimate?
Dragon and Phoenix Auspicious, and Union?
What, is our Jiang Family a demonic cultivation sect?
Jiang Junyi sighed and picked up the cultivation technique again.
It has been passed down for a long time, so it should have something, right?
[Ding~ Detected that the Host possesses a top-tier cultivation technique that is quite suitable for pure love~ It can be improved and upgraded by spending Pure Love Points!]
Jiang Junyi's expression instantly brightened upon hearing the system's words: "You have a way to improve it?"
[Ding~ Yes, Host, yes, and after the transformation, it will be a super cultivation technique, one in ten thousand!]
"Then do it!"
[Ding~ Consuming 50 Pure Love Points~]
The book in Jiang Junyi's hand emitted a faint pink light, then transformed into specks of light that surged into Jiang Junyi's mind.
A moment later, he sat expressionlessly on the sofa, hands clasped over his knees.
"Come on, explain this."
"What does this 'Dragon and Phoenix Auspicious Union Pure Love Invincible Universal Cultivation' mean?"
"Are you playing games?! The more words, the stronger it is?!"
[Ding~ Eh-heh!]
"Eh-heh your damn self!" Jiang Junyi roared at the air.
[Ding~ Don't worry, Host~ After improvement by this Pure Love System, the cultivation technique now only requires interacting with a pure love object and staying by the pure love object's side to cultivate automatically~]
Jiang Junyi was stunned. 'Oh? If that's the case, it seems somewhat reasonable.'
He took a deep breath: "I'll try it tomorrow. If it doesn't work, you're dead, you dog system!"
[Ding~ It will definitely work.]
