Chapter 20 - Take Zhou Zhiruo

After Guo Feilong left the Zhou family, the members of the Zhou family began to work on Zhou Zhiruo's mindset.

"Zhiruo, marrying Brother Guo isn't such a bad thing."

The head of the Zhou family, with a kind face and earnest words, said, "Think about it, Brother Guo is already over 120 years old."

"How many more years can he live? At most, thirty more years before he's buried."

"But you're different, Zhiruo. You're only sixteen, in the prime of your youth, like the morning sun, with a long future ahead."

"You know the situation of our Zhou family. We've been suppressed by the Li family to the point where we don't even have enough resources for daily cultivation."

"Once you marry Brother Guo, when he passes, his wealth will be yours."

"He can offer a bride price worth sixty to seventy thousand spirit stones, which shows he still has money."

"Moreover, he recently saved two ninth-level Qi Refining inner disciples from the Spirit Creek Sect. Those two are geniuses and might become Foundation Establishment stage cultivators in the future."

"Those two ninth-level Qi Refining inner disciples from the Spirit Creek Sect will be your backing, and no one in Green Sun County will dare to mess with you."

"Zhiruo, don't think marrying an older man is a loss. Your great-grandfather is over 90, and didn't he marry a concubine two years younger than you just last month?"

"Look at your uncles and cousins, which one of them doesn't have several wives and concubines, and which one doesn't have girls your age?"

"If our family falls, think about your parents, your two younger siblings, and the thousands of people in our Zhou family. What will happen to them?"

After saying so much and seeing Zhou Zhiruo still looking unwilling, the head of the Zhou family got angry and said, "Zhiruo, you're the descendant I dote on the most. For the sake of the Zhou family, don't blame your great-grandfather for being ruthless."

The next moment, the head of the Zhou family sealed Zhou Zhiruo's mystic power cultivation.

Without her mystic power, she couldn't escape the Zhou family.

"Zhiruo's parents, you two should persuade her well. If Zhiruo runs away or something happens to her, you two can go meet the ancestors of the Zhou family."

After speaking, the head of the Zhou family left Zhou Zhiruo's room.

Zhou Zhiruo's parents didn't want their beloved daughter to marry an old man close to the grave.

But in the face of family interests, when it's necessary to sacrifice a family member.

Anyone can be sacrificed, and must be sacrificed.

The next day.

Guo Feilong, dressed as a groom, rode the ninth-rank spiritual beast Ice Flame Hound, Erha, to the Zhou family to fetch his bride.

He came alone, without anyone else accompanying him.

After all, the Zhou family is about two hundred miles from Yellow Rock Town.

This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

For ordinary people, fetching a bride would take four to five days round trip.

For immortal cultivators, marrying is usually very simple.

Him coming alone wasn't disrespectful; it was normal.

After confirming that the bride was indeed Zhou Zhiruo, Guo Feilong took her back to Yellow Rock Town.

The common folk of Yellow Rock Town enjoyed another free feast today, and everyone hoped the lord would marry and take concubines every day, so they could enjoy sumptuous free meals every day.

At night.

The sky was full of twinkling stars.

Guo Feilong pushed open the door to the bridal chamber, where the orange flames of the red candles flickered.

The flames swayed with the breeze from the open door, like dancing fire fairies.

He lifted the red veil of the bride, Zhou Zhiruo.

How beautiful she was, how pretty.

Such a tender age of sixteen.

Seeing this, Guo Feilong, a man over 120 years old, felt his heart race.

Zhou Zhiruo not only had her mystic power sealed.

Her ability to move was also sealed, like in martial arts dramas, where only her eyes could move, and she couldn't even speak.

Guo Feilong casually released Zhou Zhiruo's ability to move.

What followed was a thousand-word description of actions and techniques.

Three hours later.

Zhou Zhiruo fell asleep from exhaustion.

Guo Feilong, however, was invigorated and in high spirits.

The next moment.

His divine soul entered his mindscape, looking into the Family Fortune Cauldron.

He counted the auspicious clouds inside with his divine sense, finding 360 more clouds.

Taking a female cultivator with a low-quality superior spiritual root added 360 auspicious clouds, equivalent to taking 30 ordinary women as wives and concubines.

Zhou Zhiruo was born into a cultivation family, pampered and cherished as the apple of her family's eye, never having suffered grievances.

She was extremely unwilling to marry Guo Feilong, an old man close to the grave, but that's how the world was. When she received two spirit stones and one third-grade cultivation elixir every day for cultivation.

She realized how sweet it was to marry a wealthy old man.

You see, when she was in the Zhou family, she only got two low-quality spirit stones a month and could only use a first-grade cultivation elixir once every three months.

After marrying Guo Feilong, she received two low-quality spirit stones and one third-grade cultivation elixir every day.

One day was equivalent to five months in the Zhou family.

Gradually, she didn't resist Guo Feilong as much, and eventually accepted it.

Besides, Guo Feilong, apart from having gray hair and slightly loose skin, looked quite decent otherwise.

Ordinary women, no matter how beautiful, couldn't compare to female cultivators.

Because female cultivators, whether in skin elasticity or smoothness, were like newborns.

Less than ten days after marrying Zhou Zhiruo, Guo Feilong went to propose to the Murong family, a cultivation family 300 miles away.

The Murong family had been in Green Sun County for over two hundred years and was a medium-sized cultivation family. The family head was over fifty years old, at the fifth level of Qi Refining, considered young and promising among small cultivation families.

The Murong family head had a young daughter named Murong Xue, with a low-quality superior spiritual root, sixteen years old, with red lips and white teeth, delicate eyebrows like a painting, and bright, star-like eyes. Coupled with her naturally cute baby face, she was truly both beautiful and adorable.

Murong Xue was about 148 cm tall, with a petite and exquisite figure, but with perfect proportions, a golden ratio, skin as white as warm jade, and at least a D+ in certain areas.

You could say Murong Xue was a true D+ Lolita, and Guo Feilong had taken a liking to her when he saw her while strolling in Green Sun County.

Guo Feilong placed four thousand spirit stones and 100 third-grade cultivation elixirs on the table and said, "Head of the Murong family, these are my betrothal gifts for marrying Miss Murong Xue.

If you agree to this marriage, these things will belong to your Murong family now."

The head of the Murong family and the other cultivators present from the Murong family all had eyes glowing green with greed as they looked at the spirit stones and cultivation elixirs on the table.

Their Murong family had never seen so many spirit stones and third-grade cultivation elixirs at once in over two hundred years in Green Sun County. This was a huge fortune for the Murong family.

As the saying goes, money moves people's hearts, and coupled with Guo Feilong's own seventh-level Qi Refining cultivation and the ninth-rank spiritual beast Ice Flame Hound he brought, it was a display of strength.

The head of the Murong family thought, "My seventh brother and third uncle have always been dissatisfied with me becoming the family head. Their cultivation isn't lower than mine, and they've always wanted to oust me from the position and take over themselves.

If I marry my daughter to Guo Feilong, my position as the head of the Murong family will be rock solid, and with these spirit stones and cultivation elixirs.

With my low-quality superior spiritual root aptitude, I could become a seventh-level Qi Refining cultivator in less than thirty years.

When that old man Guo Feilong dies, I'll help my daughter seize power and acquire his wealth.

I might even reach the ninth level of Qi Refining and attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

If I become a Foundation Establishment cultivator, the Murong family will be glorious."

Thinking of this, the head of the Murong family immediately agreed to the marriage, regardless of whether his daughter Murong Xue agreed or not.

In the cultivation world, the marriage of children was still decided by parents and family elders.

Unless the daughter's cultivation was unmatched in the entire family, only then could they escape the family's arrangements and have freedom in marriage.

The next day.

The common folk of Yellow Rock Town enjoyed another free feast.

That night.

Guo Feilong was in the bridal chamber.

With a height of 148, a golden ratio figure.

At least D+.

The cute and beautiful Murong Xue was consummated.

Murong Xue was obedient, sensible, and understanding.

She and Zhou Zhiruo both had low-quality superior spiritual roots.

After taking her.

The Family Fortune Cauldron also produced 360 auspicious clouds.

The young and beautiful women within a few hundred miles of Yellow Rock Town had basically all become Guo Feilong's wives and concubines, showcasing the allure of wealth and power.

That morning.

After eating a few fruits, Guo Feilong.

Was about to go to Zhou Zhiruo's place for some fun when.

A massive ninth-rank flying spiritual beast descended into his courtyard from the sky.
