"Reporting to the Elder, my name is Feng Chengcheng."

An inner disciple answered.

"Feng Chengcheng?"

Guo Feilong was momentarily stunned.

This instantly reminded him of a movie he once watched called "Business Beach," which had a female lead named Feng Chengcheng.

Of course, there are many people with the same name. Even Wang Yuyan and Zhou Zhiruo exist, so having another Feng Chengcheng isn't surprising.

Guo Feilong asked again, "How old are you this year? Are you from one of the major families within the sect?"

Feng Chengcheng replied, "Reporting to the Elder, I am 38 years old. I am not from a major sect family, just from a small cultivation family affiliated with the sect."

At 38 years old, on Earth, she would definitely be considered a middle-aged woman, but in this cultivation world, a 38-year-old woman is actually very young.

She is from a small cultivation family, which is a good thing for Guo Feilong. Small cultivation families do not have Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, which in his eyes means they have no significant background.

Guo Feilong, being a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, could easily discern that Feng Chengcheng's cultivation level was at the ninth-level Qi Refining stage.

At such a young age of 38, to have reached this level of cultivation, she must have a high-quality spiritual root.

In the future, she has at least a 20-30% chance of reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.

After understanding this, Guo Feilong smiled and asked, "Do you have a master?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Chengcheng's face lit up with joy, thinking, "Could it be that this handsome Elder wants to take me as a disciple? Yes, it must be so."

Feng Chengcheng pretended to be calm and said, "Reporting to the Elder, I have not yet taken a master."

The Spirit Creek Sect governs over a dozen countries with a population of hundreds of billions. Even though the proportion of people with spiritual roots is low compared to ordinary people, with such a large population base, and the fact that children born to cultivators with spiritual roots have a higher chance of possessing spiritual roots, the total number of cultivators within the Spirit Creek Sect's territory is very large. There are also many cultivators with high-quality spiritual roots, who can be considered small geniuses. As long as they are given a Foundation Pill, they generally have a good chance of reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.

Unfortunately, Foundation Pills are scarce resources. If one is a child of a major cultivation family, even if they have medium-quality spiritual roots, their family will definitely prepare a Foundation Pill for them.

If they are from an ordinary small cultivation family with no significant background, even with high-quality spiritual roots, the family would not be able to afford a Foundation Pill even if they sold everything over several generations.

Moreover, in this cultivation world, there is a rule that a married daughter belongs to another family and is no longer part of her own family.

If a cultivation family has a son and a daughter, and the son has medium-quality spiritual roots while the daughter has high-quality spiritual roots, and the family has one Foundation Pill, it will 100% be given to the son with medium-quality spiritual roots, not the daughter with high-quality spiritual roots. This is because the son’s children will carry on the family bloodline, while the daughter’s children will belong to her husband's family.

Feng Chengcheng thought that the Elder in front of her wanted to take her as a disciple and was full of anticipation when Guo Feilong asked her, "Has your family prepared a Foundation Pill for you?"

Feng Chengcheng shook her head and said, "No."

Guo Feilong asked again, "Have you saved enough sect contribution points and spirit stones to buy a Foundation Pill?"

Feng Chengcheng shook her head and said, "I have none."

Hurry up.

Please take me as your disciple.

Elder, hurry up.

Feng Chengcheng urged in her heart.

However, Guo Feilong suddenly pointed to a male outer disciple passing by not far away and asked, "If you had to choose between marrying him or marrying me, who would you choose?"

"Ah?" Feng Chengcheng was stunned, not expecting such a question.

Guo Feilong continued to ask her, "Honestly, if you had to choose, would you choose to marry him or me?"

Feng Chengcheng confirmed she hadn't misheard, looked at the passing male outer disciple, who was average-looking, neither ugly nor handsome, a bit short, not too fat but with a bit of a belly.

Feng Chengcheng withdrew her gaze and looked at Guo Feilong. Compared to the male outer disciple, they were like two different species.

One made her heart race...

The other left her with no feelings at all.

Feng Chengcheng's face suddenly turned red, and she softly said, "I would choose you, Elder."

If it weren't for Guo Feilong's keen hearing, an ordinary person would definitely not hear such a soft voice.

Guo Feilong was delighted and didn't beat around the bush anymore. He directly said, "I like you and want to marry you as a wife or concubine."

His words left Feng Chengcheng dumbfounded, her face turning bright red. In her 30-plus years, it was the first time she had encountered such a situation.

Guo Feilong continued, "Don't be in a hurry to refuse or agree. Listen to what I have to say first."

"If you agree to marry me, I will give you a Ninth Grade Foundation Pill as a bride price. If you fail to establish your foundation in the future, I will continue to provide you with elixirs to restore your spiritual roots and Foundation Pills until you succeed."

"Moreover, after marrying me, I will provide you with plenty of cultivation resources every month."

"I won't hide it from you; I have other wives and concubines, but I will treat you all equally."

"Take out your voice transmission jade slip, and let's leave a voice transmission mark for each other. I will ask you within three days whether you agree or not."

Feng Chengcheng, blushing, exchanged voice transmission marks with Guo Feilong on the jade slip.

Guo Feilong took out a Ninth Grade Foundation Pill from his storage bag and showed it to Feng Chengcheng. Her eyes lit up instantly, thinking, "He really has a Ninth Grade Foundation Pill; he's not lying."

"These bottles of elixirs are for you. Consider them a meeting gift." Guo Feilong took out ten bottles of third-grade cultivation elixirs from his storage bag.

Just as Feng Chengcheng was about to say something, Guo Feilong placed the ten bottles of elixirs in her hands. If she didn't take them, the bottles would fall to the ground.

After giving the elixirs, Guo Feilong stepped on a white cloud and flew off into the distance.

Feng Chengcheng stood there holding the ten bottles of elixirs, her mind in a whirl. She could feel that Guo Feilong was sincere, and if she married him, her life would indeed be very good.

Feng Chengcheng was a very beautiful woman with high-quality spiritual roots, and many people liked and pursued her, including some wealthy disciples within the sect.

Although wealthy disciples were rich, their wealth was only relative to ordinary inner and outer disciples with no background. They would not give her a Foundation Pill as a bride price.

The wealthy disciples in the sect would not give her a Foundation Pill as a bride price because such rare cultivation resources are reserved by major cultivation families for their male family members, not for an outsider wife or concubine.

Moreover, the Foundation Pill Guo Feilong showed was a Ninth Grade Foundation Pill.

With a Ninth Grade Foundation Pill and her high-quality spiritual roots, her success rate for Foundation Establishment could reach about 70%.

Foundation Establishment stage, nearly 500 years of lifespan.

Foundation Establishment stage, a status far higher than the Qi Refining stage.

There are truly very few female cultivators, especially those at the ninth-level Qi Refining stage, who can resist such temptation.

In the vast cultivation world, there are many beautiful women. In any city with tens of thousands of people, you can find dozens or even hundreds of beauties.

The children of large cultivation families can easily sleep with many beauties at a small cost.

They would never use a Foundation Pill as a bride price to marry a wife. At this moment, Feng Chengcheng had a strong desire for the Ninth Grade Foundation Pill and wanted to immediately take out the voice transmission jade slip to tell Guo Feilong she agreed to marry him.

But she quickly abandoned the idea of saying it immediately, planning to agree when Guo Feilong asked her through voice transmission, so she would appear more reserved and less eager.

At this time, Guo Feilong had already landed on a high mountain peak. After seeing Feng Chengcheng leave the mission hall, he returned to the hall to continue searching for targets.

In this way, within less than a day, Guo Feilong found five more targets.

He took these five beautiful ninth-level Qi Refining female cultivators out for a talk, said the same words, and gave them the same ten bottles of third-grade cultivation elixirs.

This is called casting a wide net; you are bound to catch some fish.
