Although Jiang Miaoke was not very willing, under Xia Mingyue's repeated persuasion, she still walked out of the hall with Xia Mingyue. Of course, it was not just the two of them who left; there were other girls as well.

Seeing them walk away, Ye Xiao turned to Jiang Wuqi and said seriously, "Old man, what's going on? Has Fang Jing's health taken a serious turn?"

"I can only say it's very good!" Jiang Wuqi also spoke with great seriousness at this time.

"Very good?" Ye Xiao was somewhat surprised upon hearing Jiang Wuqi's words and asked, "What do you mean?"

"The world is full of wonders, and this phrase applies not only to the secular world but to the Martial Arts World as well," Jiang Wuqi said. "You should have heard of some people having Innate Divine Strength, right?"

"Yes, that does indeed exist," Ye Xiao said, recalling he had experienced it before.

Jiang Wuqi said, "Actually, Fang Jing's condition is almost the same as that of Innate Divine Strength."

"What?" Ye Xiao said in surprise, "Could it be that Fang Jing can become a female strongman?"

"Almost the same, but there are differences," Jiang Wuqi said. "What you discovered as a sphere is not a tumor but a Qi Bag!"

"Qi Bag?" Ye Xiao was even more surprised upon hearing this and said, "A Qi Bag growing inside the body, isn't that equivalent to having a tumor?"

"This 'Qi' is the Qi of True Qi; it's a True Qi Bag!" Jiang Wuqi said with a smile. "The so-called True Qi Bag is essentially an innate Dantian. This kind of innate Dantian is empty before it encounters Inner Power True Qi; but once Inner Power True Qi enters the body, it will be fully activated. Once activated, the True Qi Bag can store True Qi just like a Dantian. And if one becomes a Martial Artist afterward, this True Qi Bag will disappear; however, the Dantian will be strengthened, making True Qi less likely to dissipate and more firmly store Inner Power True Qi, which is very important for cultivating Martial Arts."

Innate Dantian!

Ye Xiao had heard these four words before. The Dantian of a Martial Artist is different from what ordinary people refer to as Dantian. It forms after becoming a Martial Artist, where Inner Power True Qi gathers. The Dantian formed by ordinary Martial Artists will have various imperfections. An innate Dantian, however, is a perfect Dantian, converting Inner Power True Qi faster than the Dantians of ordinary Martial Artists.

In short, this is indeed not a bad thing, which explains why Jiang Wuqi said 'very good.'

Ye Xiao's face showed a look of astonishment, and he immediately said, "Doesn't this mean she is actually a martial arts prodigy?"

"We can only say she is a pseudo-prodigy because her talent is not particularly outstanding. I think you know this too, right?" Jiang Wuqi said.

Ye Xiao nodded. However, he also knew that being a pseudo-prodigy was quite significant. A genius refers to those with particularly potential in cultivating Martial Arts. A prodigy is a genius among geniuses, while a pseudo-prodigy is close to a prodigy but superior to just a genius.

Therefore, overall, Fang Jing can still practice Martial Arts, and with Ye Xiao's assistance, she might achieve remarkable feats.

"But…" Jiang Wuqi said with some curiosity.

Upon hearing Jiang Wuqi's words, Ye Xiao immediately looked at him and asked, "Old man, is there a problem?"

"Logically speaking, those with Innate Dantian are extremely rare, and most are from families with ancestral legacies. Fang Jing doesn't seem to be a descendant of any ancient family, does she?" Jiang Wuqi said.

Ancient family?

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiao chuckled inwardly. Although Fang Jing's surname is Fang, under normal circumstances, her real surname should be Mu. Mu is a prominent family that once flourished on the Yan Country Continent. Perhaps, at that time, the Jiang family wasn't in the spotlight yet.

Of course, Ye Xiao would not convey this to Jiang Wuqi; instead, he asked, "Is there no other possibility? I don't know much about Innate Dantian. I've heard that if there is someone with it in the family, descendants will have it, too. Does this mean everyone will have it? Or must one only acquire it through family legacy?"

Jiang Wuqi smiled faintly and said, "Normally, those with Innate Dantian must have direct ancestors with that precedent in the family, but it doesn't mean that every descendant will have Innate Dantian. It might skip a generation, or maybe several generations will pass before one appears. There are no rules to this. Although many Martial Artists conclude that to have Innate Dantian, one must inherit it from family ancestors, I do not agree with this."

"Old man's opinion is, how did the first person with Innate Dantian come about?" Ye Xiao asked Jiang Wuqi with a smile. "That's the old man's curiosity, right."

"You're smart, kid. Yes, it's like asking if the egg or the chicken came first. I think no one can actually explain that, right?" Jiang Wuqi said.

Ye Xiao nodded, and then in a good mood, he said, "It's good that she's alright. I didn't expect her to have an Innate Dantian."

Jiang Wuqi looked at Ye Xiao with a smile and said, "It seems you care quite a bit about this girl."

Ye Xiao heard Jiang Wuqi's words and quickly smiled at Jiang Wuqi, saying, "Old Master, you're overthinking it, my heart is definitely with Coco."

Ye Xiao and Jiang Miaoke are now always telling others that they are in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, otherwise, the Jiang family would arrange for Jiang Miaoke to marry Feng Hai from the Feng family.

Of course, Ye Xiao couldn't just stand by and do nothing, especially when playing the boyfriend of a stunning beauty like Jiang Miaoke, why not?

"Alright, Coco isn't here, you can stop pretending," Jiang Wuqi said with a smile.

"Huh?" Ye Xiao immediately looked at Jiang Wuqi with a face full of surprise.

Jiang Wuqi said, "Did you think we haven't noticed? It's just a little trick of Coco's, she just doesn't want to be arranged to marry into the Feng family."

Ye Xiao saw that Jiang Wuqi knew everything and immediately gave a sly smile, saying to Jiang Wuqi, "Old Master, you saw through it, I knew it, you're so wise, how could you not see it? But, Old Master, these days people care about free love, you should know too, Coco really hates that Feng Hai. To be honest, every time I see that guy, I want to punch him, so if possible, shouldn't the Jiang and Feng family's arranged marriage be…"

"Nonsense!" Jiang Wuqi suddenly said.

Ye Xiao immediately looked at Jiang Wuqi and found that although Jiang Wuqi said 'nonsense,' there wasn't any anger on his face. Instead, he said, "As a member of the family, one should naturally make some contributions for the family, Coco has just been spoiled from a young age."

Ye Xiao sighed and then walked to a nearby chair and sat down.

"Old Master, there are some things that perhaps I shouldn't say, but I hope you won't mind if I do." Ye Xiao looked seriously at Jiang Wuqi and said.

Jiang Wuqi said, "What do you want to say?"

"I feel that this time, Old Master, you're not being wise," Ye Xiao said.

Jiang Wuqi said, "What are you talking about?"

"Coco is your granddaughter, the family is indeed important, but what can a simple arranged marriage achieve? As far as I know, that Feng Hai isn't even a Martial Artist, and for a big family, if he becomes the Family Head and isn't a Martial Artist, will the Feng family continue to thrive in the future?" Ye Xiao said, "So, if Coco goes to the Feng family, she won't enjoy much happiness, moreover, Coco really dislikes that Feng Hai."

Jiang Wuqi said, "You're right, if Feng Hai became the Family Head, the Feng family would fall without strong Martial Artists to support it. But doesn't the Jiang family have Martial Artists?"

Ye Xiao was nearly disbelieving his ears when he heard Jiang Wuqi's words.

He couldn't help but look up at Jiang Wuqi, and at that moment, the kindness on Jiang Wuqi's face was gone, leaving only the majesty of a Family Head.

"For the development of the Jiang family, must we sacrifice Coco's happiness?" Ye Xiao said seriously to Jiang Wuqi, even with some anger.

"Some things are beyond our control," Jiang Wuqi sighed and said.

Ye Xiao knew that many big families would sacrifice their children for the sake of the family's interests, but he hadn't expected the Jiang family to be the same.

This made Ye Xiao think of the feudal dynasties that had already passed, where the princes and princesses were often married off to the children of important ministers to consolidate the imperial power. As for the happiness of the princes and princesses, it became less important compared to the power.

"What if I destroy the Feng family?" Ye Xiao's face showed a hint of coldness.

Jiang Wuqi couldn't help but glare at Ye Xiao, saying, "Ye Xiao, don't go too far."

"I'm not a fan of trouble, but, as luck would have it, I'm not afraid of it. You're right, Coco and I are just friends, not lovers, but if the existence of the Feng family upsets Coco, or even affects her happiness for the second half of her life, then I will work hard to bring down the person or the entire family that upsets her." Ye Xiao's expression was extremely serious and also extremely arrogant at this time.

Originally, Ye Xiao thought Jiang Wuqi would be very unhappy, but surprisingly, Jiang Wuqi showed a slight smile on his face and said flatly to Ye Xiao, "You're not one of the Jiang family, so naturally you don't have to listen to my words. Of course, if you can destroy the Feng family before Coco gets married, then naturally the arranged marriage won't exist anymore. However, I still don't quite believe you can do it."

Ye Xiao said, "I don't know if I can, nor can I guarantee it, but I will definitely try my best."

Jiang Wuqi chuckled, changed the topic, and said, "This matter, I don't want to know about it, nor do I care to know how you're striving for it. Tell me about your dealings with the Liu family, Chen family, and Zhao family. How are things going now, can you handle it?"
