Just after settling Zi Dao and Liu Yunfeng, amongst others, Jiang Caiyue hurried back and couldn't help but curl her lips and mutter upon seeing the scene: "What a stubborn young man to the extreme!"

Prince Ji, who had walked far away, twitched the corner of his mouth, his eyelids drooping, yet he didn't retort.

Chu Tianji watched the retreating figure of Prince Ji and sighed softly. He, too, did not like this descendant of the Imperial Clan for his hurtful words and haughty arrogance. However, claiming to hate him now seemed impossible. Whether he liked it or not, he couldn't change the fact that they had become a family. Especially now that the Imperial Clan was facing the biggest crisis in its history, everyone needed to stand together. Besides, back when he was in the Yanhuang domain, he had personally taught this youngster a lesson. Let the past... stay in the past.

On their side, Ji Qingyu and her son Chu Mo, who had been disturbed in such a manner by Prince Ji, also put away their sorrow. Despite Ji Qingyu's tears still flowing, her face was adorned with a truly joyous smile.

Chu Mo was the same, his eyes reddened, looking at Ji Qingyu: "Mother, ever since I awakened the memories hidden deep within, knowing the truth, I have never blamed you both."

"My good child, but I still feel sorry for you," Ji Qingyu said, then continued: "My dear son, rest assured, mother will borrow the Imperial Seal from the Imperial Clan for you later, to smash that little brat from the Zhong Family to death!"

Jiang Caiyue couldn't help but chuckle on the side, saying: "Aunt Qingyu, you should first think about how to help my uncle."

The Jiang Family and the Ji Family had interconnections for generations, and it made sense for Jiang Caiyue to call her 'aunt' given their relationship.

Ji Qingyu took a deep breath and then said, "Caiyue, thank you for this time, your aunt owes you a favor."

"Aunt, you're too kind," Jiang Caiyue replied with a charming smile: "Now that the Imperial Clan is rising again, there are too many things to be done. We, the younger generation, can't do much and can only help within our capabilities."

Ji Qingyu nodded her head: "You have done very well already!" She continued and then turned her gaze back to Chu Mo, her eyes full of an intense, undissolvable affection, without any attempt to conceal it. In her heart, she felt immense regret for not being there when her child needed her the most, for not participating in every step of her child's growth. For a mother who deeply loves her child, this is an extremely cruel circumstance.

However, all the hardships have finally found resolution today. Being able to be with the two men she loves the most means much more to Ji Qingyu than advancing to the Great Saint Realm. She looked back at Chu Tianji and softly smiled, keeping all the past hardships she had endured deep within her heart.

The group of young, handsome men standing behind Chu Tianji, watching this scene, also had complicated expressions on their faces. They were all legitimate descendants of the Imperial Clan and closely related by blood to Ji Qingyu, but over these years, very few have been able to stand in Ji Qingyu's shoes and consider her feelings.

The thoughts of most were similar to those of Prince Ji, only they were not as extreme as him. But deep down, they didn't have much respect for Ji Qingyu, once the most outstanding princess of the Imperial Clan. As for Chu Tianji from the Yanhuang domain, they felt nothing but contempt.

What they did not expect was that although the emperor had personally suppressed Ji Qingyu, it was not for the reasons they assumed: that Ji Qingyu marrying a cultivator from the Yanhuang domain had tarnished the royal bloodline and brought shame upon the Luotian Imperial Clan.

The actual reason, these people have now come to understand.

Thus, they feel reflective and even fortunate not to have foolishly rushed forward like the paranoid and arrogant Prince Ji, to insult Chu Mo and provoke Chu Tianji. Otherwise, they would be in the same embarrassing situation as Prince Ji is now.

Ji Qingyu has ascended to the Great Saint Realm; Chu Tianji has successfully become a Saint. Their son, Chu Mo, how old is he this year? Accounting for his years in cultivation, it's merely a few decades, yet he has already achieved enlightenment and stepped into the Supreme Realm. Even within the cruel Trial Field, he managed to accomplish what many could not achieve in their entire lives within the shortest time.

Top ten of the Heavenly Ranking!

Among the current generation of the Imperial Clan's young descendants, only Ji Qi has made it onto the Heavenly Ranking.

This entire family is outstanding beyond words!

Who dares to ridicule? Who has the right to ridicule? Who dares to be sarcastic?

Even if the emperor still does not change his attitude towards this family, these legitimate descendants of the Imperial Clan will probably have to secretly show goodwill to them.

One Great Saint alone can support a very large family in the Luotian Immortal Domain!

These Imperial Clan descendants are all very clever. The complex feelings lasted only a short while in their hearts before they came one after another to pay respects to Chu Mo. Even if their rank was one or two generations higher than Chu Mo's, they were all very gentle and polite to this young Heavenly Genius.

This scene was something Chu Mo could not have imagined, even in his dreams. It was not particularly thrilling, but at least, being respected made him feel comfortable inside. For him, everything... whether it's humiliation or honor, is insignificant compared to enjoying a meal happily with his parents as a family of three.

Chu Mo's indifference also made these proud Imperial Clan descendants admire him greatly. Even if the Imperial Clan has declined, it is not easy for anyone to remain as composed as Chu Mo while facing a group of distinguished Imperial Clan descendants.

Jiang Caiyue, watching this scene from the side, her clear eyes sparkling with an intense light, grew even more interested in Chu Mo, and the idea of making Chu Mo her brother became even stronger.

At this moment, Ji Qi came up again with a smile on his face and said to Ji Qingyu: "Aunt, the banquet has been prepared in the main hall. Shall we all go to eat together?"

Ji Qingyu nodded. She was quite fond of this nephew of hers. Unlike Prince Ji, Ji Qi had been secretly visiting her over the years. Although he only came by to chat and stealthily brought her some rare fruits, to Ji Qingyu, these acts of kindness were already extremely precious.

Therefore, Ji Qingyu's attitude towards Ji Qi was clearly different from her attitude towards others. She nodded gently and then said, "Alright, let's head over."

A group of people began to make their way towards the main hall of the temporary palace.

Upon arrival at the main hall, everything was already prepared. The hall was brightly lit and fragrant.

Chu Tianji and Ji Qingyu were led to the main table, and meanwhile, Ji Qi wanted to invite Chu Mo to sit at the main table too, but Chu Mo politely declined.

That was because among those present, there were many with high seniority. They might look favorably upon him for certain reasons, but Chu Mo didn't want to give off an impression of arrogance due to favoritism.

The courteous treatment he received from these individuals was due to his parents' standing, not his own strength.

Not to mention, deep down, Chu Mo never really considered himself to be a member of the Imperial Clan!

Because, his family name was Chu.

Subsequently, Chu Mo was seated at a table next to the main table. Jiang Caiyue took the initiative to sit with him, causing many speculative and doubtful glances to be exchanged between the two of them.

It was no wonder people were suspicious. Jiang Caiyue was known for her noble aloofness, and her attitude towards other Imperial Clan youths had never been this warm before. Among the Luotian Imperial Clan's younger generation, there were those who had set their sights on the Jiang Family princess, yet no one had caught her eye.

Yet now she was smiling sweetly and appeared very intimate with Chu Mo, prompting surprise and even some jealousy from others.

Everyone seated at this table was a young imperial descendant of the same generation. They had all been in the Trial Field, but the highest rank among them was the Junior King Ji from the top ten on the earth list, who had previously challenged Jiang Caiyue. Outsiders naturally didn't know the true story, assuming that Junior King Ji had overestimated himself in challenging Jiang Caiyue. In reality, it was because Junior King Ji had made a slight verbal offense and was forced by Jiang Caiyue to challenge her. After being soundly beaten, the matter was dropped.

Thus, seeing Jiang Caiyue sitting beside Chu Mo made Junior King Ji, Ji Ping, look rather awkward, showing an uncomfortable expression.

Jiang Caiyue glanced at him and carelessly said, "Ji Ping, the past is the past, relax, I won't hit you again in the future."

Everyone present was speechless, thinking to themselves that she was way too blunt.

Junior King Ji Ping responded with a bemused smile, "Should I be thanking Sister Caiyue then?" But in his heart, he was silently shedding tears: It was clearly you picking on me, and now you turn around acting magnanimous, saying you won't hit me anymore. Is there anyone in the world more unreasonable than you?

"No need, no need. Chu Mo and I are brothers; from now on, we are all good friends!" Jiang Caiyue proclaimed heartily.

Once again, everyone was at a loss for words.

All present were from the younger generation and had no trouble communicating; they quickly became familiar with one another.

In the past, they might have looked down on Chu Mo because of his status, but at this moment, none would spoil the harmony. At least for now, none of the young members of the Imperial Clan in the main hall would do such a thing. Everyone was a wise person, knowing what to say and do at the right time.

However, about half of the vast main hall was still empty. Chu Mo looked over and saw that there were tables and chairs arranged in that area as well, with delicacies laid out, but for some reason, no one was sitting there.

Seeing Chu Mo looking in that direction, Jiang Caiyue half-smilingly said, "That area is probably for a group of people with somewhat awkward identities. I don't think they will be coming over now?"

Before her words ended, a large group of people suddenly entered the main hall's door. These people, dressed splendidly and striding confidently like dragons and tigers, moved towards the empty seats.

However, when they discovered the distance between those empty tables and the main table was slightly far, many faces changed color right there.

More people continued to stream in, and among them, Chu Mo spotted a familiar figure, causing him to be slightly taken aback: How did she end up here?
