698: Chapter 469 698: Chapter 469 Jiang Tang, under the admiring gaze of an old general, felt ashamed.
He, possessing abilities slightly superior, still felt his heart was not as dedicated as Ye Tian’s, which was filled with concern for the people.
He was merely distributing his excessive resources with kindness to others.
Jiang Tang humbly continued to speak, praising their family, Ye Tian, and the words of commendation for all the soldiers.
The old general, being the Clan Leader, naturally liked it when others praised his family and son, yet he maintained a humble demeanor on the surface, claiming his son was not as good as Jiang Tang.
In the presence of another’s father, elder brother, and the future son-in-law, how could Jiang Tang say that Ye Tian was less capable, especially since they were friends, and today’s mission was to negotiate a marriage.
Naturally, they exchanged mutual flattery and praised each other’s prowess.
In the grand living room, only the two of them spoke while everyone else watched them talk.
Next, it was time for the banquet, and everyone moved to the dining room.
Yan Weiwei here saw her future mother-in-law, grandmother, and some of Ye Tian’s brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, and elder dames.
The General’s Wife, with a face full of kindness and a gentle expression, was very courteous in entertaining Yan Weiwei’s family.
Yan Weiwei and her family could feel the respect and found the members of Ye Tian’s family quite amicable.
The nervousness of meeting her future mother-in-law eased a lot for Yan Weiwei and her family upon seeing these well-dressed nobles and ladies.
Jiang Tang observed discreetly, then felt that Ye Tian’s family members were of good character, at least they were outwardly enthusiastic and generous.
The saying ‘it is easy to meet but hard to live together’ held true.
To find out if they would show any unpleasant faces, one would know after staying here for a while.
Jiang Tang decided to stay within the Ye family for a while.
Even if he had to visit his future wife’s family, he must stay with Ye Tian.
After all, they were in the Imperial City.
It wouldn’t require much effort to travel alone or to use a Flying Artifact.
After the meal, Yan Weiwei’s parents and relatives were arranged to stay in a courtyard, and she was also in a different room within the same courtyard, this arrangement was made so they could feel safe being close together.
Cai Xiangxiang was of course arranged to stay in the room next to Yan Weiwei.
Jiang Tang and the other nine beautiful women stayed in the same courtyard, but in separate rooms.
As for why these beauties, having reached the Imperial City, didn’t return to their own homes and insisted on staying here for lodging, it was obviously because they intended to stay where Jiang Tang was.
Lai Jianlin, Luo Yaxuan, and some other men were arranged to stay elsewhere.
They came out on a mission, and regardless of whether they would stay here every night, the host arranged for them to stay, at least for now.
After the meal, Ye Tian led so many people together, Ye Shi, Ye Qiu, and even some other brothers and sisters also tagged along to show them around the General’s Mansion.
The nine beautiful women from the Top Ten Clans toured the General’s Mansion, which also had gardens, pavilions, and towers, but as a General’s Mansion, it had its unique training grounds.
They were keen to watch the soldiers training.
Cai Xiangxiang silently followed Yan Weiwei, with Ye Qiu always by her side occasionally providing explanations, yet her gaze often stealthily shifted towards Jiang Tang and his interactions with other women.
Yan Weiwei and Ye Tian spoke softly as they walked, and her family, carrying children, also silently observed.
Through this tour, her family felt even more that Yan Weiwei had reached for what was beyond her station.
They also knew that Yan Weiwei’s rise to match with Ye Tian was because he was an outlander and his personal character, as well as his family’s reputation, were good.
Another reason was, of course, the support from Saint Lord Jiang Tang in the background.
He smoothed out some obstacles for Yan Weiwei, ensuring she would not be looked down upon or troubled.
Eventually, everyone arrived at the outer training ground.
The entire area was spacious, with various cultivators practicing their skills.
It seemed they were not just powerful family members from the military, as ordinary soldiers did not practice here.
Jiang Tang noticed among the trainees unique methods that seemed different from other military cultivators and trainers.
It was like the trainers from his past life, but with distinct differences: they could fly and jump, excelling in qinggong, not to mention the cultivators who could fly with magic artifacts.
Some were also practicing Formation, 12-man formations, six-man formations, and four-man formations, obviously using these formations to trap, capture, or eliminate enemies.
Jiang Tang had gleaned from some thoughts that Ye Tian must also be a transmigrator.
Aside from being part of the Top Ten Clans and a military family, he could have been someone significant in his past life who used Artifact Refining methods from the Cultivation World to create high-tech products.
This was also a kind of transmigrator’s Golden Finger; it just wasn’t as bizarre as his use of the Star-absorbing Spell, which allowed for rapid advancement in Cultivation in a short time.
This had its advantages and disadvantages; it allowed him to quickly absorb these abilities, control the improvement of his Cultivation, and seek the great path to Longevity.
“Jiang Tang, in this group, I have some soldiers who cannot cultivate, and it’s fortunate that we have a method like yours, which does not require a Spiritual Root to cultivate, rather than covertly learning other Cultivation methods, allowing even soldiers to possess a strong physique.”
Ye Tian felt fortunate to have Jiang Tang visit his family and help improve the soldiers’ Cultivation methods.
They already possessed a method that did not require a Spiritual Root, but could Jiang Tang help devise even more effective training methods?
