Chapter 290: Betrothal

~8 min read 1,450 words

The flesh and corpse bones in the air quickly condensed into locks, locking the black-clothed cultivator's limbs. Jiang Yan below finished the concluding magic spell. The black-clothed cultivator was shocked, his expression desperate, watching the black snake wandering on his neck, and said hoarsely:

"Since Senior knows that I am from Witch Mountain and knows many secrets, you should also know that even if I can't defeat you, there are many ways to die together!"

The black-clothed cultivator looked determined, staring at the hideous black snake slowly approaching. But the black snake spat out its tongue and let out a cold laugh, replying:

"Why don't you try?"

The black-clothed cultivator glared, and then his face changed greatly, losing his voice:

"This... 'Drinking People's Blood'! How is it possible?!... You!"

A strand of deep red mysterious magic light rose from his body, obediently flowing toward Jiang Jiang Boqing, dancing and circling on the snake's body.

"How is it impossible?"

Jiang Jiang Boqing spat out his tongue, his roaring voice gradually becoming flat, and said lightly:

"The old man also sought the 'Witch Mountain Lotus Blood Three-Nine Nature', although I later abandoned my cultivation and specialized in side paths, I am much stronger than a half-baked person like you."

The black-clothed cultivator was already wailing, but Jiang Jiang Boqing's voice was full of enjoyment, happily:

"'Drinking People's Blood' still remembers this old guy, but it despises you!"

Jiang Yan below watched the big show above silently, lazily:

"Master! Aren't you looking for a Thunder-type immortal foundation? What kind of Golden Nature is this drinking people's blood..."

The black snake straightened up, finally transformed into that black long whip, and slowly fell down. Black clouds rose on the black-clothed cultivator's face, muttering foolishly:

"First take this body to use! Although Senior Duanmu Kui is dead, no one cultivates the 'Witch Mountain Lotus Blood Three-Nine Nature', and the 'Answering the Beggar under the Mulberry Tree' has disappeared. Where can I find the remaining immortal foundations? Cultivating this drinking people's blood is a dead end."

"Just use this body to walk around, and when I find a better one, I will replace it!"

Jiang Yan nodded, and then heard Jiang Jiang Boqing's voice from above, sinisterly:

"It is a Foundation Establishment cultivation base after all, it is not easy to occupy. Protect the Dharma for me."

So the black-clothed cultivator fell down, black clouds rolling on his face. Jiang Yan walked a few steps on his own, took the black gourd from the black-clothed cultivator's waist, smiled lightly, and replied:

"Blood evil resentment, it really is just right, whatever I need, I get."

Jiang Yan's tone was relaxed, but his eyes were full of suspicion. He weighed the gourd in his hand, took the lid off, glanced at the bright red evil energy inside, sat cross-legged, put his hands together and pointed at his brow, drawing out a bright talisman.

This talisman was golden all over, flashing with magic light. Jiang Yan poured out the blood evil resentment and silently refined it.

Wutou Mountain was close to Mount Mount Lijing. Li Li Yuanjiao rode the wind for half an incense stick and arrived. He landed on the mountain. Li Brother Yuanping and Li Li Qingxiao both stood up and said respectfully:

"Elder Brother/Brother Jiao!"

Li Li Yuanjiao's eyes were shining, and his aura was vigorous. It seemed that with the blessing of the 'Lineage of Qi and Spirit', and his dedicated cultivation at Wutou Mountain for the past year or two, his strength had improved again. He nodded to his younger brother and sister.

Chen Donghe and his wife were nearby and soon returned to Mount Mount Lijing. Li Li Jingtian looked worried, while Chen Donghe was quiet and steady, lost in thought.

Several people were talking, but their minds were obviously not here. They were all waiting for the arrival of the eldest sister, Li Li Qinghong. Who would have thought that after waiting for a long time, they still wouldn't see her heroic figure. It wasn't until half an hour later that someone reported, bowing before the courtyard, and said:

"Li Qinghong is breaking through..."

Several people looked at each other. Li Li Jingtian couldn't hold back first. After all, it was her daughter, so she said softly:

"Xiao'er, come into the room with me."

After saying this, she nodded slightly to the others and smiled:

"My mother and daughter have some private words to say, please wait a moment."

Several people nodded to indicate. Mother and daughter entered the room. Li Li Yuanjiao bowed and asked:

"Uncle, what do you think?"

Chen Donghe just shook his head and said gently:

"I have also heard of this Xiao Xiao Xian. He is quite sincere. I only have one daughter, Li Qingxiao. I don't ask for Xiao Xiao Xian to become an immortal or refine an immortal foundation, just don't treat my child poorly."

Chen Donghe's tone was gentle, but his expression was firm. He had also broken through to the fourth level of Qi Refining in these years and could be considered the backbone of the Li family. Having been pampered for many years, he also carried a bit of prestige, and said in a deep voice:

"If Li Qingxiao is interested, I have no objection to this marriage."

The two brothers Brother Yuanping and Li Yuanjiao looked at each other. Li Li Yuanjiao said:

"Uncle, don't worry. The Yushan lineage will not treat Li Qingxiao poorly. If this matter succeeds, it will definitely be a specification of ten miles of red makeup and cultivators opening the way!"

Several people were discussing outside. Mother and daughter entered the room. Li Li Jingtian took her daughter's hand and sat down, saying anxiously:

"This matter is of great importance, you must think clearly."

Li Li Qingxiao lowered her head and replied quietly:

"If I refuse this Xiao Xiao Xian, not to mention the family's embarrassment, can Mother find a better person?"

Li Li Jingtian frowned, opened her mouth, and shook her head:

"Matters between men and women have always been about mutual consent. It's not about whether he is good or not, but whether you are willing... The family has rarely forced marriage. If you are interested, even if you marry a mortal without spiritual orifices, your parents can handle the family affairs for you."

Li Li Qingxiao blinked, suddenly laughed, and said beautifully:

"Don't talk about mortals, I don't even look at the prominent families in the clan. Mother is joking. It's not a storybook. Naturally, it's about matching families. As for being interested or not..."

"With our family's current status, how many families can marry? How many families dare to marry? Looking at it, there are only a few families. Separated by thousands of miles, it is rare to meet once before marriage, let alone whether there is affection or not? Just look at appearance and character!"

Li Li Jingtian had known this, but she was worried and sighed softly. Li Li Qingxiao lowered her head, calm and rational, paused, and said:

"Xiao Xiao Xian has given enough posture, so don't be too serious. Being a person needs to be a bit blurred."

Mother and daughter talked secretly for a while and came out of the room. Li Li Qingxiao smiled and agreed to the matter. Li Li Yuanjiao smiled:

"Then I will report to the Old Ancestor and write to Guanyun Peak... to settle this matter."

Several people nodded, but someone hurried up outside the door, looked at the group of people in the courtyard, hesitated for a breath, knelt before Li Li Yuanjiao, and said respectfully:

"Report to the young masters, the Xiao family has sent someone, saying there is a change in the sect."

"Who came."

Li Li Yuanjiao asked. The clan soldier said:

"The Xiao family's eldest young master, Xiao Xiao Guitu."

"Xiao Xiao Guitu!"

Li Li Yuanjiao and Li Brother Yuanping looked at each other, bowed to Li Li Jingtian and his wife, and hurried down.

Chen Donghe sent the two away and sat in the room. Li Li Jingtian pushed her husband, looked at Li Li Qingxiao going out to collect books, and said softly:

"That Xiao Xiao Xian is good, but he has no spirit. He has schemes but doesn't look like he can make a decision. I'm afraid he won't become a great weapon."

"Great weapon..."

Chen Donghe shook his head, put the sword at his waist into the brocade bag, and said gently:

Li Li Jingtian shook her head, worried:

"This is hard to say. If you don't rush to the sky, won't you be wronged?"
