I Have No Qualifications, The System Asked Me To Marry A Wife To Practice

Chapter 198: A Gathering Of The Monks

Gong Liusu undoubtedly lost.

Onlookers believed that she lost to Chu Shen's extravagant spending, but only those with certain insight knew the value of "Wan Jian Gui Zong" (Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Sect).

"This kid actually has the ability to kill opponents of higher levels!"

Young Master Pan and his own grandfather, Elder Pan, were amazed after meeting.

Elder Pan stroked his beard and snorted, "It's not surprising that true geniuses have this ability. Not to mention Foundation Building defeating Spirit Gathering, even Spirit Gathering defeating Gold Core is possible."

Although both cases involve surpassing opponents of higher levels, the difficulty is incomparable.

However, Elder Pan's words seemed to intentionally belittle Chu Shen.

Young Master Pan was pragmatic. Although he was envious of Chu Shen's achievements, he also knew that the other party was truly formidable. "Grandfather, it seems that Chu Shen's opportunities are even greater than we expected..."

Elder Pan nodded, "I am becoming more and more interested in his opportunities. Perhaps the Xiao family discovered something extraordinary back then, which is why they took the risk."

"We can't do the same!" Young Master Pan quickly cautioned when he saw his grandfather showing interest.

Elder Pan glared at him, "Do you think your grandfather is foolish? If we act now, wouldn't we be impatiently following in the footsteps of the first family?"

Young Master Pan breathed a sigh of relief, "Then, what does grandfather have in mind?"

Elder Pan tapped his fingers on the table for a while before slowly saying, "This opportunity is not to be taken lightly. It must not fall into the hands of others. It is most important that our family obtains it."

"Of course, Young Master Pan has no interest in making wedding clothes for others. Even if it's someone from the Pan family, how to obtain this opportunity is a bitter matter for him," he said with a bitter smile. "But that Chu Shen is unyielding. Even after giving him such great benefits last time, he still refused."

The elder Pan sighed. "We can only cater to his preferences. I heard that although that kid has many concubines, he doesn't have a legal wife."

Young Master Pan suddenly shook. "Grandfather, you don't mean..."

"The brilliance he displayed today is worthy of being matched with a woman from our Pan family," Elder Pan stroked his beard and said each word.

"I'm afraid you will be disappointed, grandfather," Young Master Pan retorted. "This path is probably not feasible."

Elder Pan was displeased with his grandson's defiance. "Give me a reason then!"

"I have inquired about it. That Chu Shen has a fiancée, and she is a disciple of the Yujing Platform. These days, I have also heard that this Yujing Platform disciple is highly regarded and an outstanding talent," Young Master Pan continued.

Elder Pan's face changed.

Young Master Pan continued, "And not all of Chu Shen's concubines are ordinary. I also heard from outside sources that the Fuyuan Pavilion's Dantai family is actually related to that kid by marriage. Although it was Dantai Zhonggu's daughter who married into the Chu family, their relationship is very close. The marriage was quite a spectacle at the Fumu Mountain. However, Dantai's daughter entered the Chu family as a peaceful concubine, which shows how much importance the Dantai family attaches to him."

Now Elder Pan couldn't sit still anymore. "I didn't expect the younger generation to rise to such a position!"

The tone of Pan Sangong's voice was a bit heavy: "So, Grandfather, we acted too late. The Xiao family concealed too much information, and afterwards, all the families were concerned about Langhuan Peak and didn't investigate deeply. It was indirectly helping Chu Shen, and in turn, we turned a blind eye and deaf ear."

"He has grown up to this day, and we have missed the best opportunity to suppress him with our power... We can't let my Pan family's daughter become a concubine in the Chu family for an unknown opportunity, right?"

Pan Elder fell into hesitation, feeling restless in his heart: "Enough, let's put this matter aside and think of another way!"

When the Pan family was in distress, many people who witnessed Chu Shen's victory over Gong Liusu were also in distress. Some wanted to win him over, some were jealous, and some, like Pan Elder, wanted a share of the pie.

Some still arrogantly thought that Chu Shen was nothing special...

But Chu Shen had no interest in the complicated thoughts of these families, nor did he have time to explore them. Shortly after he returned to the Qunyu Palace, many people came to congratulate him on his achievements today, keeping him busy.

Among these people were friends of Shen Yingzi and other Lingjue Peak disciples, as well as senior brothers and sisters from Langhuan Peak. There were also some people from other immortal peaks who came out of curiosity, and even many outsiders who came uninvited.

Fortunately, cultivators were not bound by worldly etiquette. It was a popular and elegant practice in the cultivation world for the hermits of the Three Mountains and Five Peaks to gather and disperse as they pleased. It was not as strict as secular gatherings.

Outside the Qunyu Palace, everyone sat on the ground. Some took out a jug of wine, others brought out delicious spiritual fruits, she contributed snacks she had on hand, and he brought pastries from a shop as a casual gift... In addition, Chu Shen also did not neglect the etiquette of a host, so the Chu family servants brought out various drinks and food. Thus, a lively gathering of cultivators with a wild and playful atmosphere took shape.

Then the fox spirits danced among the crowd, the mountain spirits and forest monsters of Lingjue Peak played and frolicked with the crowd, and the easy-going cultivators responded clumsily or flexibly. Some sang loudly, some played the zither to liven up the atmosphere, some applauded and cheered, and some performed their skills out of joy. It was indeed lively.

Of course, in such a lively atmosphere, there were inevitably a few who got into a fight or caused trouble after getting drunk, but such people were few and far between.

After all, everyone present were cultivators with some level of cultivation. This gathering was also a coincidence, a visit to Chu Shen, and discussing and learning from each other was the main purpose. How could they behave so recklessly in the host's house?

Is that not contrary to the intention of coming here this time?

So the scene is noisy but not chaotic, maintaining basic order.

Chu Shen naturally couldn't refute the earnest feelings of the crowd. Just in case, the concubines stayed in the palace, while he fully participated in this gathering, answering many questions of concern from various Fellow Daoists. It can be considered a successful event.

It wasn't until the second half of the gathering that Gong Liusu unexpectedly arrived, causing the atmosphere to become lively again.

"Sister, why are you here?" Chu Shen was a little puzzled when he saw Gong Liusu.

Today, he defeated her, which not only caused her to lose face, but also made her lose her ranking in the Tianjiao sequence. Only in the competition ten years later could she regain her position in the Tianjiao sequence.

Putting aside hatred, there must still be some resentment.

But Gong Liusu maintained her usual style and said, "Congratulations. If I want to become stronger, I'll ask for your help."

Before Chu Shen could speak, a fox-like head suddenly popped up next to him. It was Shenyinzi, who had a mischievous look on her face as she said, "Asking Junior Brother Chu for help to become stronger? Sister Gong, are you trying to learn his sword skills or his cunning?"

Chu Shen glared at her, speechless.

This fox fairy just loves to tease people!
