The Longevity Family: Starting from the Branches and Leaves

Chapter 870 Encountering the Enemy

In the hot desert.

A green fairy boat was flying quickly.

A man and a woman were standing on the deck.

The woman in front was wearing a light yellow dress, had a beautiful face and clear, lively eyes.

Her eyes were fixed forward, her chest rising and falling slightly, and she looked a little anxious.

Behind her was a young man in a dark green robe, with an upright figure and handsome appearance.

He glanced around vigilantly.

The two people were Chen Ling and Wu Yanran.

"Yanran, don't worry, everything will be fine."

Looking at Wu Yanran, Chen Ling spoke to comfort her.

Now it is less than five hundred miles away from the Wu family.

Because of the sand monster, he was a little nervous.

After all, the sand monster is coming with great force this time.

And he had to go to the Wu family to propose marriage.

Although I have experienced kissing too many times.

But it is somewhat inappropriate to propose marriage in this situation.

I don’t know whether the Wu family will agree?
After all, on the surface, the Chen family is not even a poor family, which makes them unworthy of Wu Yanran.

"Um."

Wu Yanran nodded slightly, and looked at Chen Ling with her clear eyes, revealing a gentle look.

After agreeing to Chen Ling's proposal, she became much more open and frank with Chen Ling when getting along with him.

But at this moment, I was thinking more about the sand monster.

Another stick of incense passed.

"Chen Ling, the Lingyun Lingzhou of my Wu family is ahead."

On the fairy boat, Wu Yanran pointed to a Lingzhou of considerable size in front and said to Chen Ling.

At this moment, her face showed relief.

Now it can be confirmed that the Wu family was not attacked by the sand monster.

Chen Ling looked down and saw that Lingyun Lingzhou covered an area of more than one hundred miles.

Different from other spiritual states he had seen.

It looks more like a fairy city standing in the desert.

It is surrounded by city walls that are seven or eight feet high, and they are shining with a green jade-like glow.

These materials alone look to be worth a fortune.

The city is shaded by green trees.

There is a huge light blue light shield on the periphery, like an upside-down giant bowl, covering Lingzhou.

After the two got off the fairy boat, they arrived at the city gate.

"Meet the young lady!"

There was a team of monks in charge of patrolling the city. When they saw Wu Yanran, they bowed and saluted.

"Um."

Wu Yanran smiled faintly and nodded to everyone.

Then he took Chen Ling into the city.

The streets in the city are spacious and clean, no different from those in a city.

But it's just planting more fairy plants.

Since she had already agreed to Chen Ling's proposal, Wu Yanran had nothing to hide. She took Chen Ling's hand and flew towards the Wu family.

Seeing this scene, some members of the Wu family who greeted Wu Yanran on the road were surprised.

You know, Wu Yanran has a very high status in the Wu family.

You will definitely become a true immortal in the future.

He is the future pillar of the Wu family.

How could she be so intimate with a strange man?

Normally, many disciples from aristocratic families came to propose marriage to her, but she never even looked at them.

"Who is this person?"

"I've never seen it before."

"Looking at the situation, the relationship with the young lady is not ordinary."

"But his cultivation doesn't seem to be very high."

"Young lady doesn't even like True Immortal cultivators, how could she be interested in such an ordinary cultivator?"

When the Wu family disciples saw how intimate Wu Yanran and Chen Ling were, they couldn't help but talk about it curiously.

Wu Yanran holds a high status in the Wu family, and with a fourth-grade immortal root, her future achievements are limitless.

The man in front of him, apart from his handsome appearance, was obviously not as good as Wu Yanran in cultivation.

"The Wu family is indeed very powerful!"

Chen Ling thought to himself that he had met many cultivators along the way.

Among them, there are three wandering immortals.

The strength of this noble family is much higher than that of a poor family.

Moreover, it is rumored that the Wu family's strength is very close to the eighth level.

In addition, these monks were extremely respectful to Wu Yanran, which showed that her status in the Wu family was not low.

Moreover, the looks these people gave him seemed to be somewhat puzzled.

However, Chen Ling didn't take these to heart.

Now Wu Yanran has agreed to propose marriage to me.

As long as the Wu family accepts the betrothal gift, it will be done.

"Xiaoqing has done a great job this time!"

Chen Ling thought to himself.

Judging from this situation, the Wu family is an underestimated ninth-rank family.

At this time, Wu Yanran pointed to a courtyard in front and said with her red lips pursed, "Chen Ling, this is my Wu family."

"Um."

Chen Ling nodded and his expression became serious.

Last time at the Lin family, he also met the head of the Wu family.

He also seems to be a kind and easy-going person.

You shouldn't refuse my marriage with Yanran, right?
Chen Ling thought to himself.

The Wu family has three True Immortals. For example, the head of the Wu family is a middle-stage True Immortal, while the ancestor Wu is a late-stage True Immortal.

The two then entered the Wu family.

The two patrolling disciples at the door bowed in greeting when they saw Wu Yanran.

Then, the two of them walked along the corridor and came to an ancient hall.

"Father."

Inside the hall, a middle-aged man with a sturdy figure was pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, looking solemn.

This person is none other than Wu Zhongyue, the head of the Wu family.

"Greetings, Senior Wu!"

Chen Ling also bowed.

"Yan'er, I'm back."

Wu Zhongyue was delighted to see his daughter.

When he saw Chen Ling again, he was stunned.

He said, "Friend Chen is here too!"

As he spoke, he gestured for Chen Ling to sit down.

"Senior Wu, I came here this time to discuss something important with you!"

Chen Ling bowed towards the head of the Wu family and spoke respectfully.

"Young friend Chen, it's not too late to sit down and talk about it later."

Patriarch Wu said calmly.

On the side, Wu Yanran poured Chen Ling a cup of fairy tea.

The attitude is very intimate.

Looking at this situation, the head of the Wu family couldn't help but be stunned.

He knew his daughter best, and she was always proud and arrogant.

Why is he so kind to Chen Ling?

It feels like something is not right.

"To be honest, Senior, I am in love with Yanran, so I came to the Wu family to propose marriage!"

Chen Ling said solemnly.

"Propose marriage?"

Hearing this, Patriarch Wu looked at his daughter, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The daughter just followed Chen Ling to Haoyang Lingzhou to hatch the phoenix.

How come Chen Ling, the son-in-law of the Lin family, came to propose marriage at this time?
He naturally believed in his daughter's ability and vision, but he still couldn't help asking, "Yan'er, what's going on?"

"Can the phoenix successfully hatch?"

Even though he was always calm, he was confused at this moment.

"Dad, this traitor Luanniao is a very good guy."

Wu Yanran took a sip of the fairy tea and said while mumbling.

"Then why didn't you come back with me?"

Seeing that his daughter showed no signs of abnormality, Patriarch Wu continued to ask.

He also knew about the immortal veins of the Luan bird.

Not to mention anything else, the blood and essence of the mother Luan bird alone is enough to allow the Luan bird to reach the realm of a fifth-grade immortal beast in the future.

This Luan bird has always been the guardian fairy beast of their Wu family. Its strength has reached the sixth level, enough to deal with the Golden Immortal.

However, the Wu family has always kept a low profile and this matter has never been known to outsiders.

"It's living a life of luxury in the Chen family now, and it's probably almost forgotten about me, its owner!" Wu Yanran said gritting her teeth.

When she left the Chen family, she used all means to persuade the Luanniao to follow her back to the family.

But the phoenix refused.

"what?"

Upon hearing this, the face of the head of the Wu family changed.

The phoenix is extremely important to the Wu family, and there must be absolutely no mistakes.

Moreover, her daughter has long been connected to the phoenix by blood, so how could she not obey her orders?

"Senior Wu, this matter is mainly my fault."

"When I was helping Yanran hatch Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing absorbed my spiritual energy. After hatching, it recognized me as its master and refused to leave the Chen family."

Chen Ling bowed with an apologetic look on his face.

"Xiaoqing recognizes you as her master, how is that possible?"

Patriarch Wu was even more surprised.

You have to know that the Luan bird is an immortal beast with fourth-grade bloodline, and its bloodline is extremely noble. How could it possibly recognize an ordinary immortal as its master?

Moreover, after the phoenix gave birth, it was always a daughter who maintained her blood and energy.

It is also impossible to recognize other people as the master.

"Dad, I don't believe this either, but it's true."

"Xiaoqing doesn't dislike me now, but Chen Ling is its owner."

Wu Yanran's eyes flickered and she said helplessly.

Hearing this, the head of the Wu family glanced at the two of them. He could roughly guess the reason why Chen Ling came to propose marriage.

My daughter and the phoenix have long been connected by blood.

If the phoenix recognizes Chen Ling as its master, it is equivalent to the daughter also recognizing Chen Ling as her master.

Chen Ling came here to propose marriage, I think this is the situation.

Moreover, the phoenix is the Wu family's magical beast and has an extremely high status.

This way he recognized Chen Ling as the decision maker, and he also had to report this matter to the ancestor.

I didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen again when the sand monster disaster has not been resolved yet.

"Yan'er, what do you think about marriage?"

Patriarch Wu hesitated for a moment and asked his daughter.

From his daughter's attitude towards Chen Ling, he could tell that his daughter was not averse to this marriage.

But of course I have to ask my daughter about this matter clearly.

Moreover, Chen Ling is only at the initial stage of cultivation as a wandering immortal.

My daughter has the help of the phoenix and there is a great possibility that she will enter the Golden Immortal realm in the future.

Chen Ling's cultivation level is a bit low.

"Dad, I have already promised Chen Ling!"

Wu Yanran said directly.

"Senior Wu, I will definitely treat Yanran well. I hope you can help me."

Chen Ling also took the opportunity to speak.

Looking at the attitude of the head of the Wu family, Chen Ling felt something was wrong.

You should do what you should do at home.

Raw rice is cooked.

There is no need to look at other people's faces like this.

"Now that the sand monster is attacking, the life and death of the Wu family is uncertain."

"As for the marriage proposal, let's wait until this sand monster is over before discussing it."

Patriarch Wu thought for a moment and said.

Although he believed in his daughter's judgment, the matter of the phoenix was of great importance, so he still had to consult the ancestor.

And the last time he went to the Lin family, he also learned that Chen Ling now has four wives at home.

Although it is not a big deal for the head of a family to marry a few more Taoist companions.

But what he still wanted was to allow Chen Ling to marry into the Wu family.

After all, the phoenix bird must never be allowed out.

Hearing this, Chen Ling didn't know what to say.

After all, this is the truth.

"Dad, it doesn't matter whether this matter is settled earlier or later. The phoenix will not return to our Wu family."

At this time, Wu Yanran seemed to see what the head of the Wu family was thinking and shook her head.

"this?"

The head of the Wu family was stunned. Why did his daughter, who was always wise, always side with Chen Ling?

"Chen Ling, please wait for a few days. I will discuss this matter with the ancestor and will give you a reply soon."

The head of the Wu family could only say this to Chen Ling.

"it is good."

Chen Ling could only nod.

"Master, the two immortal officials have arrived."

At this time, someone from the Wu family came in to report.

"Yan'er, take Chen Ling to settle down first. I will go to welcome the immortal official."

Patriarch Wu said to the two of them.

Then he stood up and left the hall.

"Chen Ling, follow me!"

Wu Yanran and Chen Ling smiled.

The two of them immediately walked out of the hall.

"I'm sorry for not welcoming you two immortal officials to Lingyun Lingzhou!"

The hearty laughter of the head of the Wu family came from outside the gate.

Then, Chen Ling saw him walking in towards the two monks.

Seeing the two people, Chen Ling's face changed, and the Fantasy Sky Bead in his body started to spin rapidly.

I saw that both of them were wearing purple robes. The one in front had a burly figure and exuded an aura of dominance.

It turned out to be Chen Ling’s old acquaintance Zhao Zhengyuan.

He is not an old acquaintance. The one Chen Ling killed in the spiritual world was just Zhao Zhengyuan's clone.

So he knew Zhao Zhengyuan, but Zhao Zhengyuan didn't know him.

However, to be on the safe side, he still activated the Fantasy Sky Pearl to prevent the energy in his body from leaking out.

Although, his aura now is completely different from that in the spiritual world.

But it’s always better to be safe than sorry.

Next to Zhao Zhengyuan was a middle-aged man with a ruddy face and slightly fat.

Chen Ling and Wu Yanran left towards the other corridor of the hall and did not encounter the two men head-on.

But I was secretly shocked.

This is really a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road.

The Zixiao Immortal Dynasty is vast and boundless, and I actually met this person here.

Fortunately, I activated my Fantasy Sky Pearl in time and the other party did not notice my situation.

"Yanran, who were those two immortal officials just now?"

Walking along the corridor to the backyard, Chen Ling asked Wu Yanran.

"They are both seventh-rank patrolling immortal officials of the Zixiao Immortal Dynasty, responsible for patrolling this sand region."

"That burly man is called Zhao Zhengyuan, and he is in the middle stage of True Immortal cultivation."

"The slightly fatter one is Song Lian, who is also in the middle stage of True Immortal cultivation."

"This time, they should be here to help us fight the sand monster."

Wu Yanran said to Chen Ling.

"Middle stage of True Immortal!"

Chen Ling frowned.

With his current strength, even if he used all his strength to stimulate the Haoyang Immortal Tree and condense the Jinyang Immortal Realm, he would still be no match for a True Immortal.

So you still have to be cautious and careful not to let Zhao Zhengyuan discover your situation.

"Chen Ling, you can live in my Shuiyun Courtyard first."

Wu Yanran spoke as she led Chen Ling into a small courtyard with a small bridge and flowing water.

"Miss!"

A pretty girl saw Wu Yanran and bowed.

When he saw Chen Ling, he couldn't help but be surprised.

The eldest lady actually brought a man into her own private residence.

"Lan'er, this is my son-in-law Chen Ling. He will be staying here for the next few days. Please serve him well."

Wu Yanran said to the girl.

"Uncle?"

The girl was even more surprised.

When did the eldest lady get married?
