“Ha ha ha, where is this? It is an honor for my Ji Family to have Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable here.” Ji Tianyao said with a smile, then glanced at Qin Chen and added, “This must be the young talent of Heavenly Work, right? Indeed a remarkable figure, very impressive.”
Ji Tianyao sensed the venerable aura emanating from Qin Chen and couldn't help but smile. It seemed that Heavenly Work had invested quite a bit this time. The life aura surrounding this young man was quite tender, lacking any extremely old feel, indicating that he was undoubtedly a remarkably young powerhouse.
At such a young age, he had already broken through to the venerable realm, and among their Ji Family, only a few could compare. However, the more the Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable valued him, the happier Ji Tianyao felt. At least it showed that the Ji Family's recruitment of a son-in-law was somewhat attractive among the major forces of the human race.
“Come, please, this way.” Ji Tianyao did not ask Qin Chen for his name; after all, such a genius, though extraordinary, could only be considered a junior in the eyes of Ji Tianyao, the ancestor of the Ji Family.
The Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable entered the ancestral grounds of the Ji Family with a beaming smile.
The Ji Family's ancestral grounds were incredibly magnificent and vast, and upon entering, there was a faint chaos aura lingering about.
“Qin Chen, this place definitely has Chaos Rare Treasures. This kind of aura suggests that there is likely a bloodline of some ancient top chaos being flowing within the bodies of these so-called Ji Family members.” The Primordial Ancestral Dragon said.
As a primordial being, he was naturally familiar with the aura of chaos beings. At this moment, Qin Chen and the others had already been led into the Ji Family's reception hall.
After entering the hall with the Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable, Qin Chen discovered that the hall was enormous, even featuring a large open space in the center. At this time, the hall felt rather empty, with only members of the Ji Family present.
“Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable Hall Master, this way, please.” Inside the hall, there were rows of seats on both sides, with additional seating behind them.
Clearly, the front row of seats was intended for individuals of higher status, while those in the back were likely of lower status or simply attendants.
There was no need to mention that the Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable and Qin Chen were directly escorted to the frontmost seats. If even the Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable could not sit in these prominent positions, then very few individuals among the human race could.
As Ji Tianyao served as the ancestor of the Ji Family, he immediately began to engage in casual conversation with the Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable.
After exchanging a few trivial remarks, Qin Chen could no longer hold back and spoke up, “Ancestor Ji Tianyao, may I ask which individual your Ji Family is planning to recruit as a son-in-law? When might we get to meet them?”
Qin Chen was feeling anxious in his heart, as he had already assumed that the Ji Family was preparing to recruit Ji Ruyue. He naturally did not have a very pleasant expression.
Upon hearing Qin Chen's words, Ji Tianyao frowned slightly, and Ji Tianqi and the others beside him also showed cold expressions.
Although they appreciated Qin Chen, the fact remained that, even if Qin Chen was already a venerable at such a young age, in the eyes of Ji Tianqi and the others, he was merely a disciple of the Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable and could only be seen as a junior.
When the elders spoke, how could juniors interrupt?
Seeing Ji Tianyao's displeasure, the Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable immediately smiled and said, “Ancestor Tianyao, my apologies. This is my disciple of Heavenly Work, named Qin Chen. I heard that the Ji Family is holding a martial arts competition to recruit a son-in-law, and naturally, the young man is a bit anxious.”
