Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 328 The Goddess in Plain Clothes, Living a Life of Debauchery

The main hall of the official court.

Many of the powerful and influential people in Tianjing exchanged glances, then hurriedly stood up and chased after Jiang Jian.

Their purpose in coming here was to befriend the Lord of Yinshan.

If it weren't for Jiang Jian.

These scions of prominent families would never be idle; they would never come to the disciplinary office to observe the proceedings.

Jiang Jian had just stepped out of the palace gate when he was caught up by them.

"Greetings, Inspector."

A young man in a Taoist robe walked at the front, with a friendly smile on his face. "My name is Li Xing. I am a successor of the Fallen Demon Forbidden Land. Could we exchange identity device information? I hope to learn from you in the future."

Another woman, dressed in sportswear and tight jeans, stepped forward and raised her wrist: "I am Liu Fanghuang, the heir of the Liu family. Please add me as a contact."

More people followed behind the two, completely blocking the entrance to the government hall.

"Senior Jiang Jian, I am a 29th graduate of the Earth Moon Academy. May I get to know you?"

"Envoy of the Border, I am the Deputy Pavilion Master of the Suanni Pavilion. The affairs of the Imperial Star Palace are complicated. We can exchange ideas when we have the opportunity."

……

Faced with these gestures of goodwill.

Jiang Jian did not feign politeness, but instead took out his identity device and exchanged information with each of them.

For those with powerful backgrounds and profound cultivation, Jiang Jian would also respond politely and give them special notes in his contacts.

A few minutes later.

These privileged sons of the powerful and the most outstanding talents on earth were almost all satisfied, their smiles even wider.

Jiang Jian, as the lord of Yinshan, single-handedly governs the entire wondrous realm.

This identity alone makes him extremely worth befriending!

Spiritual resources in the wonderland.

Not only rare and unique.

the most important is.

Most of the rare materials from the magical realm can slowly regenerate!
The news had already spread throughout the central government headquarters in Tianjing.

The wondrous scenery of Yinshan Mountain in Jiangjian.

The spiritual items produced there are related to the soul and lifespan!
As soon as this news came out.

Not just Tianjing.

In the seventy prefectures of the land, many powerful and wealthy families were green with envy, eager to befriend Jiang Jian immediately in order to gain some benefits in the future.

after all.

Whether it's a human, a ghost, or a demon or monster.

All living beings need a lifespan.

The instinct to live is the fundamental instinct of all living beings.

"The patrol envoy has made great contributions to the surface world, yet he has never been arrogant. He is equally humble and polite to us. Such a refined demeanor truly deserves the title of peerless genius!"

As a successor of the Forbidden Land of Fallen Demons, Li Xing, dressed in a Taoist robe, stroked his identity device, looked up at Jiang Jian's back, and sighed.

aside.

Immediately, someone chimed in, "That's right!"

"The Lord of Yinshan holds a high position and wields great power, and should be aloof and superior. I am merely an ordinary Divine Palace Realm cultivator, yet he showed no disrespect whatsoever. Instead, he added me to his contacts, which is truly unlike other peerless geniuses!"

Many people nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with emotion.

"I heard that he has been selected by Tianjing and is about to go to the moon to prepare for war and carry out Operation Mercury!"

"It's true!"

"May the Lord of Yinshan complete his plan and return safely!"

"I've heard that our surface world is only playing a supporting role this time; the real core of the plan lies with those geniuses on the moon!"

Someone scoffed, "Those relocated residents on the moon have always been arrogant and disdainful of the surface world. Now that they need help, they suddenly remember us!"

The words fell.

Immediately, someone's expression changed slightly, and they made a shushing gesture: "Shut up! Is this something we should be discussing?"

Speaking of it.

These privileged young men exchanged glances, fell silent, and headed towards the shipyard, each returning to their own quarters.

at the same time.

When Jiang Jian arrived at the edge of the shipyard, he saw Lu Qingqing and Lu Chen waiting for him below the giant ship.

"Jiang Jian, we've been waiting for you."

Lu Chen stepped forward and said with a smile, "Take my giant ship to the surface launch base. I'll save you all the travel expenses along the way."

After getting to know them a little better.

As Lu Chen shed his disguise, his original boyish nature gradually came to the fore.

For Jiang Jian here.

He also stopped referring to him as "Lord of Yinshan" and instead chose to call him by his given name.

As the young prince of the Lu family, Lu Chen was treated with utmost respect by his peers, which resulted in him having almost no friends.

Only Lu Qingqing, being his cousin and having a close blood relationship, could be considered as an equal in their communication.

"Lu Chen, do you think your lame jokes are funny?"

Lu Qingqing, with a calm expression, spoke up from the side, "Actually, it's not funny at all; in fact, it makes people feel awkward."

Seeing the strange look in Jiang's eyes, he said, "It's alright, it did save on travel expenses."

The Lu family's giant ship before them was as massive as a mountain and looked extremely luxurious.

A procession of servants and maids filed down the stairs, bowing respectfully.

"please."

Lu Qingqing gestured with her hand, appearing poised and graceful.

"please."

Jiang Jian responded and was about to board the ship with Lu Chen.

not far away.

Suddenly a calm voice came.

"See you Jiang."

Hear this sound.

The group stopped and turned to look.

Tens of meters away.

Amidst the howling wind, the girl in the green dress stood quietly, her fair and aloof features further accentuating her otherworldly air.

Jiang Jian thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "I'll go over there."

Lu Chen blinked, indicating his understanding.

Lu Qingqing remained silent, gazing at the girl in the green dress, lost in thought.

Tens of seconds later.

Jiang Jian stopped in front of Nie Zheng and asked, "Didn't you say before that we wouldn't go through a surface launch base, but would go directly to the moon?"

Nie Zheng nodded and said, "That's how it was originally."

She looked up at the black-robed youth before her, "But now, things have changed."

Jiang Jian raised an eyebrow slightly, but did not speak. Instead, she waited for Nie Zheng to continue.

The girl in the green dress hesitated for a moment, then said, "I have informed my family about the engagement."

She shrugged. "I didn't expect my family to respond so quickly."

Seeing that Jiang had a vague idea, he asked, "What reply?"

Nie Zheng lowered his voice and said, "Before we go to the moon, you must come with me to the Fourth Sea to pay your respects to my mistress."

Jiang was taken aback.

On Earth.

The term "to pay homage" should not be used casually.

Only when meeting someone of extremely high status, or visiting someone who has cultivated profound spiritual power and comprehended the workings of creation, can one be said to have a "meeting".

What truly surprised Jiang was seeing this place.

The Fourth Sea!
This kind of vocabulary.

In the solar system, there is only one place that is qualified to have it!

Neptune!
Neptune has nine seas!

These nine seas are scattered throughout the solar system and are used by the descendants of the gods to control the solar system.

just.

As Neptune isolates itself.

The "Nine Seas" in the Solar System.

It too quietly disappeared, no longer known to anyone.

"The Fourth Sea".

Jiang Jian murmured softly.

The girl in the green dress nodded and, in a very calm tone, revealed a shocking secret.

"My father, who was in charge of the Qin Palace, fell in love with the goddess in white from the Fourth Sea and they have already married."

"so."

"The goddess in white robes of the Fourth Sea is my mother."

Hear this.

Even with Jiang Jian's calm and collected nature, his pupils couldn't help but contract slightly, and a sense of astonishment arose in his heart!

The Qin Palace Wonderland has always been shrouded in mystery.

Its master, known as "Lord Qin," is mentioned in very few records.

in recent years.

The Qin Palace seemed to have vanished, with no news ever coming out again.

And the title of "Goddess".

It is a title of honor that only descendants of gods are qualified to possess!

No other living being, no matter how high their cultivation level, could ever be called a "goddess"!
The fourth sea in the solar system, a goddess in white.

He is one of the descendants of the gods!

Although there are many descendants of gods.

Those sent to guard the Nine Seas were the marginalized descendants of the gods.

But for the creatures of the solar system...

The four words "descendants of gods" are enough to say it all!
Think of this.

Jiang Jianxin was already filled with many speculations.

Nie Zheng seemed to sense his thoughts and said softly, "Before Neptune closed itself off, it gave instructions to the Nine Seas distributed throughout the solar system, forbidding them from interfering in the affairs of the solar system."

“My father was in love with the goddess in white, and he was also bound by this, so he could not easily appear in public.”

"This is also the truth behind why the Qin Palace Wonderland has not been seen by the world for so long."

"No one dares to disobey the divine decree issued by Neptune."

At this point, the girl in the green dress gathered her sleeves, extended her slender, white fingers, and tugged at Jiang Jian's black robe sleeve, "Go tell your friends to go to the surface launch base first, they don't need to wait for you."

Jiang Jian's expression was solemn as he digested the shocking news and walked toward the Lu family's giant ship.

soon.

Jiang Jian arrived at the bottom of the gangway, looked at Lu Qingqing and Lu Chen with an apologetic expression, and said, "You two go ahead, I still have some things to take care of as soon as possible."

Lu Chen responded subconsciously, feeling somewhat disappointed.

Lu Qingqing nodded and said, "It's alright. I was just taking Lu Chen there anyway, so we'll be going now."

Jiang Jian replied, "I'm sorry."

Lu Chen snapped out of his reverie and said, "I was thinking of showing you the things on the ship, but it seems there won't be a chance for a while. See you on the moon then."

Jiang Jian smiled and said, "Okay." Several seconds later.

The Lu family's giant ship rose into the sky, blotting out the sun, and quickly disappeared into the horizon.

Nie Zheng walked closer, looked up at the sky, and said, "Let's go too."

Jiang looked away and asked, "How do we get there?"

The girl smiled and flicked her azure skirt.

In an instant, a beam of azure light suddenly appeared!
The immense pulling force instantly enveloped the two of them, causing them to disappear from their original spot in the blink of an eye!

I do not know how long it has been.

Jiang Jian sensed that the spatial teleportation power had dissipated and slowly opened his eyes.

Light and shadow scatter and then reassemble.

The brilliance faded.

What comes into view is a crystal-clear palace on the sea.

This palace is thousands of feet high, towering majestically into the sky.

The air currents surged and the water rippled.

Coral iridescence, exotic herbal fragrance.

"This is the edge of the Fourth Sea, a dimensional layer located between Earth and Mars."

"The teleportation scroll my father gave me can only take me this far."

Beside her, the girl in the green dress whispered, "This young lady must have just created an avatar to greet us."

While talking.

Many strange creatures, never seen before, knelt down around him and bowed respectfully to Nie Zheng.

Somehow.

Nie Zheng's expression became very distant. With a cold face, she waved her hand and said, "No need for formalities."

A creature stepped forward and whispered, "Your Highness, the Goddess is already in the Palace of Plain Clothes, where a banquet is being prepared in anticipation of your arrival."

Nie Zhengdao said, "Lead the way."

The creature seemed to glance quietly at Jiang Jian.

Then he turned around and led the way.

Tens of seconds passed.

He led Nie Zheng and Jiang Jian through the plain-clothed palace gates and stopped in front of a towering hall.

"Princess, please."

The words fell.

The creature turned and left, disappearing into the deep blue depths.

After he leaves.

Nie Zheng looked at Jiang Jian and instructed, "When you face the young lady later, don't let it slip. If her avatar finds out that our marriage is fake, all my plans will fall apart."

Jiang Jian nodded solemnly.

Nie Zheng withdrew his gaze, gathered his azure skirt, and took the lead on the steps of the palace.

Inside the palace, which was dressed in white, lights shone brightly.

It has a unique and rich fragrance, and is filled with auspicious energy.

The pavilion is adorned with lanterns, and the jade terrace is decorated with colorful ornaments.

Jiang Jian followed Nie Zheng and had just entered the main hall.

Deep within my heart, a tremor I had never felt before arose, and a sense of dread arose!

My mind trembled with shock.

Jiang calmed herself down and looked up.

In front of the palace.

Below the white jade steps, two jade tables were placed.

Behind a jade table sat a woman dressed in a heavy satin moon-white gown.

She wore a white jade crown with nine tassels, and her eyes were as cold and abyssal as a deep pool.

On Neptune, descendants of gods.

The goddess in white robes, who rules the Fourth Sea.

In an instant.

Jiang Jian immediately knew her identity.

This woman in palace attire gives off an extremely mysterious feeling.

The feeling of shock and trepidation I just experienced.

It emanated from the goddess in white.

"If she suddenly attacks, will I have time to hide in the dimensional space?"

Jiang Mian's expression turned solemn. As he pondered the situation, he didn't even dare to try to sense the bracelet on his wrist!

This was the first time he had felt out of control about his situation.

"Nie Zheng greets Her Highness the Goddess."

Nie Zheng stepped forward and gave a meticulous bow.

Jiang Jian also stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Your Highness, Goddess."

"No need for formalities," the goddess in plain clothes said calmly, looking at Nie Zheng. "You won't even call me 'little sister'?"

Nie Zheng remained silent.

The goddess in white shook her head.

next moment.

His cold, unfathomable gaze fell upon Jiang Jian.

After a while.

The goddess in white robes' expression softened slightly.

"good."

"Whether it's the foundation of one's soul or the depth of one's cultivation."

"They're all acceptable."

She parted her lips slightly and spoke.

Jiang saw that there was no time to answer.

I felt a chilling aura sweep over me.

It was as if I could see myself completely from head to toe!
Nie Zheng then twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "When I left the Qin Palace, I told my father that I would find the most handsome husband in the world, otherwise I would never return to the Qin Palace."

The goddess in white nodded and said, "If we only consider bone structure and appearance, this child is indeed unparalleled in the world."

"But are you really sure about this?"

She paused for a moment, then continued, "To prepare for his reception this time, I went to the depths of the Fourth Sea and retrieved a jar of Drunken Dreams."

"My fourth sea, only two jars remain."

"If we want to take it again, it will probably be a hundred years from now."

The words fell.

Immediately, a maid stepped forward and carefully carried out a heavy wine jar.

The maid first bowed to Nie Zheng.

Only then did he very carefully open the wine jar and pour the jade-like nectar into Nie Zheng's crystal cup.

The aroma of wine filled the air, and the spiritual essence permeated the atmosphere.

A few seconds later.

Jiang Jian's cup was also filled with wine.

"Drunkenness and oblivion are the wine I brewed myself."

The goddess in plain clothes sat behind the jade table, gazing at Jiang Jian, and said, "Drinking this wine will bring many benefits."

The words fell.

She was the first to bring the cup to her lips and take a small sip.

His usually aloof gaze suddenly became unfocused and dazed.

only.

next second.

The goddess in plain white robes, dressed in the Moon Palace attire, came to her senses.

Her gaze regained its clear and cold intensity.

At this time.

Nie Zheng clearly hadn't considered this detail.

She frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "Jiang Jian, although this wine is a rare and precious treasure, if one's cultivation level is not yet at the Divine Platform Realm, it will not only be difficult to enjoy, but it will also damage one's soul."

Speaking of it.

Nie Zheng raised his head and looked at the goddess in white, "He just broke through to the Divine Palace realm the other day. Now you're taking this wine, aren't you deliberately making things difficult for him?"

Behind the jade table.

The goddess in white said softly, "You should know how rare this wine is."

"What? Is it possible that the husband you've chosen can't even handle such a spiritual object?"

"Or is he scared?"

Speaking of it.

The goddess in white suppressed her smile.

The increasingly cold voice echoed in the palace of white-clad women.

“Bring him over here, I’ll specially bring out some good wine to entertain him.”

"But the husband you chose doesn't drink my wine and women, which makes me lose face."

"In this case."

"Your engagement can be discussed later."

Hear this.

Nie Zheng's expression suddenly turned gloomy.

She suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, you are deliberately making things difficult for me!"

The goddess in white said coldly, "To live a life of debauchery and oblivion, how precious it is! Yet he treats me with such contempt, daring not to drink it at all!"

Nie Zheng's expression was uncertain, but he couldn't find the words to reply for a short time.

"One more cup, please."

suddenly.

The black-robed youth's clear, cold voice echoed throughout the Suyi Palace.

Hear this.

Both the goddess in white and Nie Zheng were taken aback and looked at Jiang Jian.

He lightly touched the sleeve of his dark robe.

The handsome young man in black robes raised his eyes.

With a flick of his pale, slender fingers, he revealed the glass cup that had been hidden in his hand.

The goddess in white robes narrowed her pupils, and for the first time, her previously deep expression underwent a noticeable change.

She stared at Jiang Jian's cup, a look of surprise on her face.

Nie Zheng turned his head and looked at the cup in Jiang Jian's hand, and his heart also trembled.
