The Longevity Family: Starting from the Branches and Leaves

"I think this person won't discover me. After all, the Phantom Sky Pearl can conceal even a Golden Immortal-level cultivator."

Chen Ling took a sip of the fairy tea and pondered in his heart.

The Fantasy Sky Pearl was something that even Yuan Miaowu could hide.

There shouldn't be any problem dealing with a cultivator in the middle stage of True Immortal.

However, we must be on guard.

Although he is not yet a match for the True Immortal cultivators.

But he also has several scattered immortal puppets in his hands. If he is forced into a corner, he can just self-destruct and make the opponent suffer.

In addition, the Haoyang Immortal Tree condenses the Haoyang Immortal Realm, which can also pose a threat to the True Immortals.

"If we are discovered, we can just find a way to escape."

"Besides, I am already half a son-in-law of the Wu family now. This is the Wu family's territory, so he may not dare to take action."

Chen Ling's eyes moved.

Although the head of the Wu family has not agreed yet.

But Wu Yanran has already completely accepted herself.

This shouldn't be a surprise.

If Zhao Zhengyuan wants to take action, he will naturally have to think carefully.

Chen Ling then sat cross-legged and waited patiently.

Wu Yanran has gone to find out the specific situation of the sand monster.

. . .

Dusk.

Inside a practice room of the Wu family.

"Father, two True Immortals have already arrived in Lingzhou. There are also three other patriarchs of noble families. Together with our Wu family, there are eight True Immortals in total. I think that should be enough to deal with this demon-killing disaster."

The head of the Wu family bowed to a middle-aged man with an easy-going appearance and some graying hair at the temples.

The two look 70% similar.

He is Wu Yunhai, the ancestor of the Wu family.

"This matter concerns the survival of our Wu family. We must not be careless. Have you notified other families?"

Wu Yunhai sat quietly on the cushion and spoke with a slightly serious expression.

“The two eighth-rank families and the other three ninth-rank families usually have some disputes with our Wu family. Even if the Immortal Dynasty issues an order, they will just deal with it perfunctorily and will not send anyone here.”

"I'm also worried that they might be causing trouble secretly, and they didn't invite me."

Patriarch Wu shook his head and said.

Hearing this, Wu Yunhai nodded and said in a deep voice, "Have you made any preparations for the family's subsequent affairs?"

"Have you arranged for some of the talented tribesmen to be in a safe place?"

The strength of the sand demon is quite strong now. To be on the safe side, it is better to arrange for the Wu family's descendants to leave Lingzhou.

To avoid any accidents and being wiped out at once.

"This happened so hastily, I haven't arranged it yet."

"Also, the other two families we are on good terms with are not very stable either, so there is no safe enough place for us to go for the time being."

Patriarch Wu replied in a low voice.

"Zhongyue, what do you want me to say to you? You can't be careless about this matter. Make arrangements as soon as possible."

Wu Yunhai looked at his son and said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Dad!"

Patriarch Wu replied.

"There is one more thing. The phoenix fairy beast egg in Yan'er's hand has been successfully hatched."

"However, something unexpected happened. The Luan bird recognized someone else as its master."

The head of the Wu family spoke to his father again.

"What, the phoenix recognizes someone else as its master?"

"How can this be?"

Upon hearing the news, Wu Yunhai frowned and looked surprised.

He knew very well that the phoenix had always been the Wu family's magical beast, and the egg had always been watered with his granddaughter's essence and blood.

It has long been connected with my granddaughter’s Qi.

How is it possible to recognize someone else as the master?

"This is what Yan'er said herself. She said that after the Luan bird absorbed Chen Ling's immortal energy, it not only regained its vitality, but its bloodline also improved significantly."

"Then he was unwilling to leave the Chen family."

Patriarch Wu said respectfully.

"Can Chen Ling's immortal energy enhance the bloodline of the Luan bird?"

"How can this be?"

"The Luan bird has the bloodline of a fourth-grade immortal beast. Could it be that this boy's bloodline is higher than that of the Luan bird?"

Wu Yunhai said with some disbelief.

"From the information we have obtained, it seems that this boy has good luck. Although his cultivation is not high, he has a seventh-grade immortal wood in his hand, which contains extremely pure immortal wood spirit."

"With this immortal wood, he killed the late Sanxian master Tian in the false immortal realm."

"I think his luck is definitely not low, which is why the phoenix can recognize him as its master."

The head of the Wu family narrowed his eyes and said so.

Before that, I had to go to the Lin family to ask Chen Ling to borrow the magical energy of the magical tree.

Naturally, the Lin family also knew Chen Ling's information.

The head of the Wu family also realized that Chen Ling was not simple.

A mere fake immortal cultivator actually has a seventh-grade immortal wood in his hand.

This is definitely a great opportunity!
"The seventh-grade immortal tree, let the phoenix recognize its master."

When Wu Yunhai heard his son's words, his eyes flashed.

"What did Yan'er say?"

"She has already agreed to Chen Ling's proposal of marriage."

"However, I haven't agreed yet, so I came here to ask my father for advice."

Patriarch Wu said.

"Since Yan'er also likes him, it seems that Chen Ling is quite capable."

Wu Yunhai said calmly with a glance.

"Father, do you agree to this marriage or not?"

"And should the Luan bird come back or stay in the Chen family?"

Patriarch Wu asked again.

"The Luan bird is an extremely spiritual fairy beast. It must have chosen to stay in the Chen family for a reason."

"Yanran is also a wise person. If she is willing to accept Chen Ling, there is no need for us to stop her."

After a moment's hesitation, Wu Yunhai said this.

"Just agree to this marriage."

"By the way, arrange for the best talents in the family to go to Chen Ling's Haoyang Lingzhou."

Wu Yunhai narrowed his eyes slightly and continued.

"Heading to Haoyang Lingzhou?"

Upon hearing this, the head of the Wu family was stunned. It would be easy to agree to Chen Ling's proposal.

But he couldn't understand why the younger disciples of the family were arranged to go to Haoyang Lingzhou.

He reminded his father, "Dad, this Haoyang Lingzhou was snatched from the Tian family by Chen Ling."

"The two immortals of the Tian family have now taken refuge with the Zhang family, but they can be snatched back at any time."

"What do you know!"

Wu Yunhai shook his head. "The Luan bird is an extremely mysterious fairy beast. The place it chooses will definitely not be wrong."

"Just do as I say."

"Take along the disciples in the family who are below the late stage of False Immortal, and some mortals as well."

"Dad, why is this?"

Patriarch Wu asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"This time, the disaster caused by the sand monster is fierce. It may not be calmed down after this wave."

“So be well prepared.”

Wu Yunhai said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Dad."

Hearing this, the head of the Wu family nodded solemnly in agreement with his father's judgment.

He had no doubts either.

Immediately left the training room.

. . .

In the Shuiyun Courtyard, there is an exquisite small hall.

"Chen Ling, my father has agreed to our marriage!"

After entering the body, Wu Yanran said to Chen Ling with a smile, a faint blush on her face.

"Great!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling showed delight.

I thought we would have to wait until the sand monster retreated before we could get any results.

I didn't expect that the head of the Wu family would agree so quickly.

"But my father said he has something to trouble you with."

Sitting down on the wooden chair next to Chen Ling, Wu Yanran spoke softly again.

"What's the matter?"

Chen Ling asked.

This time, taking the situation of the sand monster into consideration, he prepared a seventh-grade magic weapon for the Wu family as a gift for proposing marriage.

This is somewhat beyond his status.

However, I still have to make it clear to my future father-in-law; this matter cannot be known to anyone else.

"My father is afraid that the disaster caused by the sand monster will last for a while, so he plans to arrange for some disciples in the clan to go to Haoyang Lingzhou and live there temporarily."

"We will let them come back after the disaster of the sand monster has subsided."

"What do you think?" Wu Yanran looked at Chen Ling with her beautiful eyes and asked softly.

"You and I are a family, so there is naturally no problem."

Chen Ling nodded and said.

There is plenty of space in Haoyang Lingzhou now.

There would naturally be no problem if some disciples went there.

"Okay, I'll trouble you then."

Wu Yanran and Chen Ling smiled brightly and charmingly.

"When will they arrive?"

"Would you like to go back with them?"

Chen Ling asked.

The head of the Wu family has begun to prepare a way out for the family.

It can be seen that this time the disaster caused by the sand monster is probably more serious than expected.

"I'll be there tomorrow."

"I'm staying here."

"I am also a Sanxian after all, and I want to lend a helping hand to the family."

Wu Yanran said decisively.

"Okay, I'll stay too."

Chen Ling nodded.

Originally, if Wu Yanran wanted to leave with them, he could also take the opportunity to leave and avoid Zhao Zhengyuan.

But if she wanted to stay, she would be embarrassed to leave.

After all, the marriage has just been decided.

The Wu family is facing such a risk again. If I leave like this, it would be disheartening.

"Ah."

Wu Yanran nodded.

She also wanted to see how strong Chen Ling was in fighting.
After all, there are rumors outside that the head of the Tian family, who was in the late stage of the immortal, was killed by him.

Afterwards, Wu Yanran talked to him about the family that came to help the Wu family.

Except for two immortal officials who were ordered by the Zixiao Immortal Dynasty to come and help eliminate the sand monster.

There are three other noble families.

They are the Jiang family, the Li family and the Lin family.

Both the Jiang family and the Li family had True Immortal cultivators coming.

On the Lin family side, it is Lin Zhengtong who has the highest cultivation level, reaching the peak of a wandering immortal.

It has also been agreed that the troops will be divided into three groups to deal with the sand monster.

The two true immortals are on the right.

The Wu family monks are in the middle.

The other three monks from aristocratic families are on the left.

"Chen Ling, you will follow our Wu family cultivators then."

Wu Yanran continued.

"it is good."

Chen Ling nodded. As long as he didn't get too close to Zhao Zhengyuan, there would be no problem.

After chatting for a while, Lan'er came over to ask whether they should go to the hall to have dinner with everyone or have someone deliver it.

In the evening, the Wu family arranged a welcoming ceremony for the two immortal officials, and the other three family heads would also attend.

Chen Ling didn't want to have too much contact with Zhao Zhengyuan.

So I found an excuse and had it delivered over.

Seeing that Chen Ling did not attend the banquet, Wu Yanran accompanied him and ate in the hall.

The two chatted and drank a lot of fairy wine.

After dinner, Wu Yanran had no intention of leaving.

Of course, this was originally her room.

On both sides of the small hall are the side rooms.

"Chen Ling."

Wu Yanran spoke softly to Chen Ling.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Ling looked at Wu Yanran, who was wearing a light yellow dress, had a graceful figure, and was lively and bright.

At this moment, her delicate and beautiful face was flushed and her eyes were filled with tenderness.

I don’t know if it’s because of the fairy wine or for some other reason.

To Chen Ling, she looked extremely charming and beautiful.

"If it wasn't for the Luan bird this time, I wouldn't have known you."

"I feel like our fate is destined."

Wu Yanran's beautiful eyes revealed tenderness and she said with a smile on her face.

She mustered up her courage and looked at Chen Ling with a blush on her face.

Now the relationship with Chen Ling has been settled.

She didn't have so many concerns.

Especially next, the family will face the attack of the sand monster.

The risks are self-evident, and life and death are unpredictable.

And she was naturally grateful that Chen Ling was so determined to stay with her.

I was also thinking about expressing my gratitude to Chen Ling.

“I feel the same way.”

Chen Ling smiled and looked at Wu Yanran's situation. He was a veteran.

Naturally, I won’t miss the opportunity.

He reached out and grasped Wu Yanran's hand, his eyes full of tenderness.

Wu Yanran was slightly stunned when she was held by Chen Ling's strong and broad hand.

She just wanted to express some affection to Chen Ling.

But the next moment, Chen Ling gently held her in his arms.

He would never miss such an opportunity.

Wu Yanran hurriedly reached out to push Chen Ling away.

But soon his hands changed direction.

Chen Ling was calm. He waved his hand and set up a barrier in the room.

This is the Wu family, so you better be careful.

. . .

Late at night, the practice ended.

Wu Yanran has fallen asleep.

Chen Ling, however, had no desire to sleep at all.

After practicing with Wu Yanran, the amount of immortal liquid in his body increased by more than ten drops.

It has reached twenty-eight drops, and is not far from the middle stage of the Loose Immortal.

In addition to the Five Elements Immortal Liquid, the thunder attribute immortal energy has also been significantly improved, but the immortal liquid has not yet been condensed.

This was also his fastest improvement since coming to the fairyland.

The first time I practiced with Lin Yunxia and Lin Yunxin, the effect was far from this.

It seems that Wu Yanran is in much better condition than the two of them in all aspects.

Immediately, he opened the Taoist partner attribute panel to check Wu Yanran's attributes.

Taoist partner name: Wu Yanran

Incense value: 0

"It actually has both wood and thunder attributes. No wonder the thunder attribute has such a big improvement."

Looking at Wu Yanran's attributes, Chen Ling thought to himself.

He immediately started practicing his skills to consolidate his cultivation.

. . .

The next day.

The morning glow shines through the windows.

When Wu Yanran woke up, her inner spiritual energy was significantly enhanced, and her skin was glowing with a translucent luster.

"This is?"

Feeling the sudden increase of immortal fluid in her body, she looked surprised.

Although he did not add ten drops of immortal liquid like Chen Ling did.

But she also added four drops.

You know, it takes one or two years of practice to condense four drops of immortal liquid.

And he and Chen Ling achieved this goal after one night of practice.

No wonder Chen Ling and his wife are so keen on practicing.

It turns out the effect is so amazing!
"woke up."

Chen Ling said warmly.

The two have already made an engagement, so Chen Ling is not being pretentious.

He already treated Wu Yanran as his wife.

Wu Yanran looked at Chen Ling and her face blushed slightly.

This relationship developed a lot faster than she thought.

"Um!"

Wu Yanran nodded slightly. (End of this chapter)
