Chapter 1866
I have unilaterally agreed to the matter between my master and you. Bai Hang Holy Maiden laughed, looking at Chen Chuyang, speaking her heart's words; she agreed to this marriage.
She came this time solely to discuss their marriage, hoping they could… complete the marriage alliance, representing the sincerity of both Tian Du Men and Longshe Shan, so that their communication could deepen, rather than remain as before.
Eh?" Chen Chuyang looked dubiously at the woman before him, the woman who thought highly of herself, her thoughts were many, and she truly… liked to imagine things; where did this matter need her agreement, and she even came personally to say she agreed to their marriage.
What do you mean?
Bai Hang Holy Maiden extended her hand: "My meaning is simple; if our initial intentions align, we can continue the discussion, after all my master is one of the Elders of Tian Du Men, also the chief of Dahe Peak, and still my master; in a sense, my master represents the face of Tian Du Men, and since Tian Du Men has agreed to the marriage alliance, we can start talking about this marriage.
"Dowry, betrothal gifts, and customs—what customs does your Longshe Shan have, what do you need, or what do you want to achieve? All of these can be discussed, ensuring our opinions are the same."
"Tian Du Men's opinion is very simple, and we also greatly respect your side's opinion; we hope the medicinal drug trade can go deeper, and afterward we hope you can provide more high-grade pills; of course, we won't make it difficult for you—whatever the price should be, Tian Du Men will give you the same."
"Moreover, Tian Du Men also guarantees that whatever you need in the future, we will satisfy you, including the search for holy herbs and news of them; Tian Du Men will spare no effort."
"As long as you, fellow cultivator, need anything, Tian Du Men will satisfy you."
"And you—what do you need? Tian Du Men needs to know some of Chen Chuyang's demands in order to deepen the trade."
"Tian Du Men's need is just this one point; they don't want anything more. They value Chen Chuyang's pills, that is, his pill-refining skill; they will provide the materials, and can also provide the recipes; even if holy herbs appear within Cangzhou, they can help find them."
"Not only in Cangzhou, but Lingzhou also has better conditions, possibly producing more holy herbs; if Chen Chuyang has need, Tian Du Men will find a way to help him obtain holy herbs; one could say Tian Du Men's sincerity this time is abundant, far better than before."
"This aspect is something the Mangshan Demon Palace cannot provide; after all, Cangzhou is controlled by Tian Du Men, most places and most resources are under Tian Du Men's say-so; moreover, Tian Du Men can represent the human faction there, allowing Chen Chuyang to obtain more recipes and various pill-refining arts, helping him improve his pill-refining skill."
"This point is something the Mangshan Demon Palace cannot provide, and also something they cannot give."
"Especially regarding holy herbs, Tian Du Men has great convenience and can also provide more information."
"After hearing this, Chen Chuyang's heart was moved; these conditions were already very good, and even having Wu Mie Zhenren marry him shows that Tian Du Men is spending lavishly this time."
"My demands are simple: I need holy herbs, as well as recipes and pill-refining techniques, etc.; Tian Du Men needs to provide them to me."
"As for holy herbs, giving me news is also fine; if Tian Du Men is willing to help, that would naturally be best; rest assured, the due compensation will not be lacking for you."
Chen Chuyang reached out and clasped hands with Bai Hang Holy Maiden, and they reached a preliminary agreement.
Bai Hang Holy Maiden was excited beyond measure: "These are no problem; my Tian Du Men can satisfy you, fellow cultivator."
"This is Tian Du Men's demand and also its condition; Bai Hang Holy Maiden knows Chen Chuyang dislikes nonsense and knows his character—once he speaks, he lays everything out plainly, and she also can't be bothered to haggle further; it's either acceptable or not."
"The conditions are laid out here; any more conditions, Tian Du Men cannot produce."
"Or rather, speaking off the cuff, Chen Chuyang wouldn't believe it either; it would be better to speak truthfully."
"If that's the case, then I wish us a pleasant cooperation."
Pleasant cooperation.
The two stood up, having basically reached a consensus; Bai Hang Holy Maiden breathed a sigh of relief—this trip to Longshe Shan had been stressful for her, but fortunately Chen Chuyang didn't make extravagant demands and didn't make things difficult for her.
The master's marriage alliance is valuable; Bai Hang Holy Maiden sat down and asked: "May I ask one thing—what do you see in my master?"
Those eyes were full of curiosity; Bai Hang Holy Maiden didn't understand—Chen Chuyang had only seen her master a few times, and yet he took a liking to her?
Her master's personality and that icy expression—ordinary men wouldn't take a liking to him, nor give him a good look; Chen Chuyang showed no sign, directly teased his own master, and then the matter came about in a confused way.
She was very curious—what happened between them that caused the master to nod in agreement?
"If I say I was just teasing your master a little, would you believe me?" Chen Chuyang confessed.
Bai Hang Holy Maiden gazed into his eyes for a while, then laughed.
I believe you.
This matter is indeed something Chen Chuyang could do—he teased his own master, and then the master took it seriously.
All of this is just as it is; Master Wu Mie Zhenren also spoke like that; they weren't really serious, but Emei True Person took it seriously, and Tian Du Men here took it seriously—or rather, they all knew, but merely wanted to go along with the flow to make it real, in order to win over Chen Chuyang and Longshe Shan.
To obtain Longshe Shan's help, someone needs to go inside Longshe Shan; as the saying goes, having someone in the court makes things easy; they all understand this, they're just feigning ignorance—if they want this to become fact, then later everything will be much easier to handle.
"You teased my master; my master noticed, but others found out and took it seriously."
"This matter is already decided like this, you…" Bai Hang Holy Maiden wanted to say more but stopped; some things don't need to be spoken.
Chen Chuyang instantly understood: "I understand Tian Du Men's meaning; naturally I am willing to draw closer to Tian Du Men, and I also hope to receive their help."
"Wu Mie Zhenren is quite good; nobody objects, so let's agree."
"However, I have higher hopes for you, Bai Hang Holy Maiden."
The conversation shifted, the topic fell on herself, and Bai Hang Holy Maiden immediately jumped up.
Their eyes locked on Chen Chuyang, gazing at each other sincerely; after a while, Bai Hang Holy Maiden became flustered, because she realized the man before her was not joking with her, but was serious.
Gurgle.
This person is too greedy—just agreed to marry my master, then turned around and set his sights on me.
"Don't be too greedy." Bai Hang Holy Maiden clenched her fist and gave a weak warning; her voice lacked strength, and she felt utterly drained.
Chen Chuyang grasped her hand again and said earnestly: "Bai Hang Holy Maiden, don't you understand my heart?"
Saying that, he wanted to seize her hand and press it against his own heart; this action made Bai Hang Holy Maiden's face flush crimson, she immediately broke free from Chen Chuyang's grasp, stomped her feet, and ran away blushing.
