Chapter 261

~7 min read 1,393 words

In Song Mansion.

Song Yiren heard that Jiang Ziya was appointed as a lower grand master and was bestowed a house in the city.

He was slightly stunned, full of disbelief.

"Ziya, you said you are now a lower grand master?"

Jiang Ziya nodded: "Yes, Elder Brother, when I went down the mountain, I found that vassal lords from all over the world were rebelling, and there were many demons mixed in, doing evil. Thinking that although I have not achieved the immortal path, I have learned the Dao on Kunlun Mountain for forty years, dealing with a few small demons and monsters is no problem."

"Who knew I would meet Grand Preceptor Wen, and at the invitation of Grand Preceptor Wen, I assisted the Grand Preceptor in pacifying the rebellion, eliminating demons, and returning to Zhaoge together. I was appointed as a lower grand master by the King, and was also rewarded with a house."

Song Yiren couldn't help but sigh: "Ziya, you went to Kunlun Mountain to practice the Dao for forty years. I was worried that you had no means of making a living. You can be appointed as a lower grand master, and you will have security in the second half of the year. Elder Brother is relieved."

Jiang Ziya had been observing Song Yiren. Except for being young, he couldn't see any abnormality. His speech, demeanor, and tone were all the same as the elder brother in his impression.

"Thank you, Elder Brother, for your concern. I wonder how you have been all these years?"

Song Yiren sighed slightly: "In the years you were away, my life was stable, but there have been constant disturbances in recent years, business is difficult to do, but fortunately I earned quite a bit in the first half of my life, enough for several generations to live without worry."

Jiang Ziya said respectfully: "Knowing that you have been so smooth during the time I went to Kunlun Mountain to learn the Dao, I am relieved."

Suddenly, Song Yiren changed the subject: "Don't talk about me, Ziya, I wonder if you have been married all these years?"

"Elder Brother, I have been learning the Dao on Kunlun Mountain all these years, and I have just gone down the mountain. How could I be married?"

Song Yiren looked at Jiang Ziya with a full face of smiles.

"That's just right, Ziya. The so-called 'there are three unfilial things, and having no descendants is the greatest'. You have achieved such achievements now, and this lifelong event should also be considered. Tomorrow, Elder Brother will find you a good marriage, and you can give birth to a son or daughter for the Jiang family, so that you can leave a descendant for the Jiang family."

Jiang Ziya was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Song Yiren to introduce him to a marriage.

"Elder Brother, I am seventy-four years old, how can I get married again?"

"What does it matter if you are seventy-four? You are a person of the Dao, and your constitution is different from ordinary people. Just listen to Elder Brother on this matter."

The next day.

Song Yiren really introduced Jiang Ziya to a marriage.

It was the daughter of Ma Yuanwai, Ma Shi, who was sixty-eight years old this year.

Jiang Ziya thought that Song Yiren would at least introduce him to a young wife, but he introduced him to a sixty-eight-year-old one. For a time, he thought he had misheard.

He refused decisively, and was scolded by Song Yiren, saying that he was an old cow who still wanted to eat tender grass.

But Jiang Ziya's attitude was very firm, and he wouldn't marry no matter what. He left the Song family and returned to his mansion.

Regarding today's matter, Jiang Ziya was still brooding and frowned.

"Not telling me that there are three unfilial things, and having no descendants is the greatest, and letting me leave a descendant for the Jiang family, what does it mean for Elder Brother to introduce an old woman to me? Can this sixty-eight-year-old still give birth to a child?"

Gu Xiu observed outside for a while.

It seems that due to his intervention, this marriage of Jiang Ziya might be ruined.

"Currently, this link of Jiang Ziya has no problems for the time being, and only the Jade Pipa Spirit is an uncertain factor."

Thinking, Gu Xiu entered the Imperial Palace.

In the inner courtyard of the Imperial Palace, Su Daji and the Jade Pipa Spirit were chatting in the bedroom.

Suddenly, the Jade Pipa Spirit remembered the things she encountered in the market.

"By the way, Sister, do you know anyone special here in Zhaoge?"

"Special person?" Su Daji's eyes were filled with doubt: "What does Sister mean by this?"

The Jade Pipa Spirit told what happened in the market.

Su Daji frowned slightly. After listening to the description, she roughly determined it was Gu Xiu.

"Sister, are you sure what you said is true?"

Seeing Su Daji's face slightly condensed, her seductive face covered by dark clouds, her face uncertain, the Jade Pipa Spirit saw this and couldn't help but coquettishly: "Sister, how dare Sister lie to you? That person was born so handsome, and even let Sister say hello to you. Sister, are you afraid that Sister will fight with you for someone?"

"Sister, don't talk nonsense." Su Daji frowned tightly, her expression serious: "If what you said is true, the High Immortal is someone beside Goddess Nuwa. He must have something important to do here."

"Someone beside Goddess Nuwa?" The Jade Pipa Spirit was at a loss.

"Yes, when Goddess Nuwa summoned us to the Wa Palace, he was also there. Although his appearance changed a lot later and became more handsome, Sister should have seen him." Su Daji's gaze carried memories, and she said slowly.

The Jade Pipa Spirit was embarrassed.

"Sister, at that time, Goddess Nuwa suddenly summoned us, and Sister was so scared that she didn't even dare to raise her head, and didn't dare to look around, so she didn't know who the person beside Goddess Nuwa was."

Su Daji looked at the Jade Pipa Spirit helplessly and sighed lightly: "Forget it, Sister, you have always been timid, so this matter cannot be blamed on you. Just don't offend him if you see him again in the future."

"He is our noble person, promising that if we listen well, he will speak well of us in front of Goddess Nuwa after the matter is done. At that time, our sisters will be able to achieve the right result and no longer be demons."

The Jade Pipa Spirit nodded repeatedly: "Sister, rest assured, if I see him in the future, I must please him well."

At this time, Gu Xiu suddenly appeared in the room, scaring the two of them until their faces turned pale.

"Daji, I have seen the High Immortal." Su Daji was the first to react, forcing herself to calm her mind, bowing slightly.

"Little Demon, I have seen the High Immortal." The Jade Pipa Spirit also learned from Su Daji and bowed slightly.

Gu Xiu looked at the two, his eyes indifferent: "I came here this time because I have something to tell you."

Su Daji and the Jade Pipa Spirit heard this, looked at each other, and said coquettishly.

"High Immortal, please order."

Gu Xiu said indifferently: "Among you three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb, the fox demon has the highest cultivation, so the first person to enter the palace is the fox demon, which I am relieved about."

"But the remaining Jade Pipa Spirit and Nine-Headed Pheasant Spirit have too weak cultivation, and they can't even change into human form well, so they stayed in Xuanyuan Tomb to practice. Their demon nature is too heavy, and even you yourselves cannot control your own nature, so I must control you. Wait until the Investiture of the Gods ends, or when you can control your demon nature, then release it."

Following that, Gu Xiu took out the Demon Soul Contract Book and asked the Jade Pipa Spirit to sign the contract.

Following that, he went to Xuanyuan Tomb to let the Nine-Headed Pheasant Spirit sign the Demon Soul Contract.

Controlling the Jade Pipa Spirit and the Nine-Headed Pheasant Spirit was equivalent to controlling Su Daji.
