Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

Chapter 114: Proposing Marriage to Nangong Wan

"Master, because my life span is drawing to a close, I have used the secret technique my junior brother taught me. I am now sleeping in an ice coffin made of thousand-year-old cold jade, awaiting my junior brother's return. Now that my junior brother has returned, please come with me to see Master. If there is no way to extend Master's life span, I hope my junior brother will not rashly awaken Master, lest his remaining life span be depleted."

Before the cold-hearted woman, the Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect, could answer, Nangong Wan had already sent a message to Zhao Shuang.

"Okay, I'll trouble you, Senior Sister."

Hearing this, Zhao Shuang nodded slightly and stared at Nangong Wan's beautiful face. A fiery look appeared in his eyes, making Nangong Wan's face turn red, as if she was burned.

A hint of shame and anger flashed across his bright eyes, but he didn't say anything. Instead, his smile remained unchanged. However, in his heart, he no longer had a good impression of Zhao Shuang, his junior brother who suddenly appeared.

However, unlike Nangong Wan, Fairy Nishang, who is now in the late Jindan stage, stared at Zhao Shuang with a smile on her face, as if Zhao Shuang was the ideal husband she had been waiting for for a long time.

However, there was a hint of resentment in his eyes. If Zhao Shuang had not suddenly disappeared, the two of them might have become Taoist partners.

Although they could not condense the Nascent Soul together and advance to the Nascent Soul stage, she did not have any hope of condensing the Nascent Soul at all.

Even though he has advanced to the late stage of Jindan, he has no hope or confidence in condensing Yuanying.

Afterwards, Zhao Shuang spoke a few words to the cold-looking woman, the Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect, and exchanged some experiences on cultivation. Then, under the awe-inspiring gazes of others, he followed Nangong Wan to a forbidden area of ​​Yanyue Sect.

It is an ice cave, with pervasive cold air that is bone-chilling and unbearable.

It is obviously not an ordinary ice cave, but one built using a related formation.

In the center of the ice cave is a crystal clear ice coffin about ten feet in size made of thousand-year-old cold jade.

In the ice coffin, Zhao Shuang and Nangong Wan's master, the former great elder of Yanyue Sect, lay with his eyes closed like a sleeping beauty, full of endless temptation, making people unable to take their eyes off him and wanting to have a kiss on him.

"Master has been asleep for over ten years. According to the secret method left by Junior Brother, his life can be extended by two to three hundred years at most. Now that Junior Brother has returned, can you bring a magic elixir to prolong his life?"

Nangong Wan stared at her mentor in the ice coffin and asked softly.

This was also the promise Zhao Shuang had made. Originally, Nangong Wan did not take it seriously. But now that Zhao Shuang not only came back, but also condensed his Nascent Soul, he even advanced to the middle stage of Nascent Soul cultivator in one go, so she naturally took it seriously.

She believed that Zhao Shuang must have some great opportunity. For example, in Yueyao Valley where Zhao Shuang once lived, the Guiling Sect had not yet opened the ban to allow people to enter.

Even though the Ghost Spirit Sect invited many formation masters, they still had no clue and were at a loss as to what to do, which surprised the entire Tiannan cultivation world.

Even the Ghost Spirit Sect sent people to look for Zhao Shuang's whereabouts, but unfortunately there was still no news.

Of course, the Yanyue Sect had also searched for Zhao Shuang many times, but it was the same.

Gradually, no one mentioned Zhao Shuang, the Jindan stage cultivator of the Yanyue Sect anymore, as if he had already fallen.

And now, the one who returned was a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, which really surprised everyone in the Yanyue Sect.

Nangong Wan, in particular, was looking forward to Zhao Shuang being able to come up with a magic elixir to prolong life so that the former Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect, their master, could wake up.

"Of course, Senior Sister won't let Junior Brother take out the longevity elixir for nothing. As long as Senior Sister can do it, Junior Brother, please feel free to ask. Or if Junior Brother needs Senior Sister's help, please feel free to ask. Even if Senior Sister can't do it, I believe that when Master wakes up, he will definitely not let Junior Brother suffer any loss."

Nangong Wan promised again, her tone heavy and filled with anticipation.

"Don't worry, Senior Sister. Now that I'm back, I've naturally brought a magic elixir that can prolong life. As for your request?"

After hearing Nangong Wan's words, Zhao Shuang raised his eyes and looked at Nangong Wan up and down with interest.

It must be said that Nangong Wan's appearance, figure and temperament were enough to rank among the top five women he knew. Only Fairy Zi Ling and Yao Yao, the great elder of the Suanni clan, could surpass her by a few points.

Seeing Zhao Shuang's gaze, Nangong Wan felt embarrassed and annoyed, but had to endure it, and she had already guessed what request Zhao Shuang was going to make.

As expected, Zhao Shuang did not pretend to be a gentleman. After looking at it and admiring it, he smiled and said directly,
"Does this include becoming a Daoist couple with Senior Sister? Of course, if Senior Sister doesn't want to, I will give Master a longevity elixir. But after Master wakes up, I will also ask Master to marry Senior Sister as a Daoist couple. Senior Sister can consider it. If she doesn't want to, I won't force her."

Before she finished speaking, Nangong Wanxia's cheeks flushed, feeling embarrassed and annoyed, although she had expected it.

But when Zhao Shuang said it, he was still extremely embarrassed and angry, and could only speak with blushing cheeks.

"If Master agrees to this matter after waking up, I will naturally have no objection."

After all, she could only agree temporarily, lest Zhao Shuang not give her master the elixir to prolong his life.

"Okay, of course. Although I already have two concubines, I have admired you for a long time." Zhao Shuang chuckled and expressed his affection.

The sincerity of the words reduced Nangong Wan's shame and anger for a long time, and she nodded lightly.

"Well! It's a deal. I'll take my leave now. I'll leave Master's affairs to you, Junior Brother."

After saying this, Nangong Wan bowed, thanked him, and quickly left the ice cave, not wanting to stay even a moment longer.

After all, Zhao Shuang really scared her, as if he would attack her at the next moment.

Seeing this, Zhao Shuang, who felt that he had gotten what he wanted, smiled even more. Then, his gaze fell on his cheap master in the ice coffin.

"Master, I'm sorry for offending you. This time, I will not only help you prolong your life, but also help you break through to the late Nascent Soul stage."

Zhao Shuang's eyes were slightly fiery, and after muttering to himself, he walked towards the ice coffin.

……

At the same time, just as he came out of the ice cave and was about to wait for Nangong Wan, he saw the Fairy Nishang coming towards him.

"Junior Sister Nishang, why are you here? Does the Great Elder have any instructions?"

Nangong Wan frowned slightly and asked.

Although one of them was in the Nascent Soul stage and the other in the Core Formation stage, they were disciples of the Yanyue Sect from the same era after all, and they had a deep relationship, so there was no change in the way they addressed each other.

"Senior Sister Nangong, I want to ask you for something?"

As she spoke, the Fairy Nishang's face turned red and filled with shyness.

She didn't look like a cultivator in the late Jindan stage at all. Instead, she looked like a little girl who wanted to ask her elders to get her engaged to her lover, full of shyness.

This scene made Nangong Wan frown even more, as if something in her heart was about to be snatched away. However, she still opened her mouth and asked nonchalantly.

"Just tell me straight up? As long as I can do it, I won't refuse."

"Could you please ask, Senior Sister, if you have a Taoist partner in these years?"

Upon hearing this, Fairy Nishang lowered her head, not noticing the change in Nangong Wan's expression, and made her request in a voice as soft as a mosquito.

As for becoming Zhao Shuang's concubine, Fairy Nishang had never thought about it. After all, she was a cultivator in the late Jindan stage, so how could she become someone else's concubine?

Hearing this, Nangong Wan sighed inwardly, and then spoke.

"Okay, I understand. I will ask my junior brother when he comes out." Nangong Wan did not intend to tell Fairy Nishang what had just happened in the cave.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Nangong. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now."

Upon hearing Nangong Wan's agreement, Fairy Nishang was extremely shy. She bowed and said goodbye.

"Ok!"

Seeing this, Nangong Wan had no intention of trying to keep him. She nodded slightly and spoke in a calm tone.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Nishang turned into a beam of light and left the ice cave.

"Ugh."

Watching the Anti-Entropy Fairy's disappearing light, Nangong Wan couldn't help but sigh softly and continued to wait outside the ice cave.

But at this moment she had no idea that Zhao Shuang in the ice cave was doing his best to help his cheap master break through to the late Nascent Soul stage.

This help lasted for a full six months, and Nangong Wan wanted to enter the ice cave several times to find out what was going on, but she was blocked by the formation set up in advance by Zhao Shuang, and finally could only continue to wait.

Half a year later, Zhao Shuang's cheap master took over as the Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect. He woke up and opened his eyes.

Her eyes were full of shame and anger. Although she was asleep, she could still feel what Zhao Shuang had done to her.

If Zhao Shuang had not helped her break through to the late Nascent Soul stage and taken a Tianyuan Fruit that extended her life by a hundred years, she would have already turned against him.

"Master, you're awake. Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhao Shuang walked to the ice coffin with a smile, as if nothing had happened.

"Rebel!"

The only answer he got was two words of shame and anger.

"Master, please forgive me. What I did before was also to help you to make further progress. I hope Master will forgive me."

Zhao Shuang explained with an undiminished smile, as if this was a matter of course.

"You must not tell anyone about this."

Hearing this, the former Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect became even more ashamed and angry, yet helpless.

Through what Zhao Shuang had done before and how he helped her break through to the late Nascent Soul stage, she naturally realized that Zhao Shuang was by no means an ordinary mid-Nascent Soul stage cultivator, so she did not turn hostile, but only warned him coldly.

"Master, don't worry. As long as you agree to let Senior Sister Nangong and I become Taoist partners, this matter will be a secret between you and me, and naturally no one else will know about it." Zhao Shuang asked with a smile.

"You want to become a Taoist partner with Wan'er?"

When the former Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect heard Zhao Shuang's conditions, his jade-like face turned as cold as frost and he spoke in a cold voice.

"Yes, I hope Master can agree to it."

Zhao Shuang nodded and smiled, not worried about being rejected at all.

"You are wishful thinking, you traitor."

The previous Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect naturally knew Zhao Shuang's purpose. He wanted to take them both in. How could she agree to such an extremely absurd thing?

"Master, are you sure you don't want to consider it again?" Zhao Shuang said with a slightly cold tone, but still smiling. Now that he has enough strength and magical powers, he naturally doesn't need to be polite.

If he wants something, he just goes and asks for it.

"what are you up to?"

Hearing this, the former Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect's face became even colder as he questioned.

"Master, you should understand that since I was able to help you break through to the late Nascent Soul stage, this means that even if you break through to the late Nascent Soul stage, you will not be my opponent. So I hope you can give it some careful consideration."

"As long as Master agrees, maybe with my help, you and Senior Sister will have the opportunity to advance to the Spiritual Transformation Stage. I believe Master will not doubt my words."

Zhao Shuang said this bluntly and confidently.

When the former Grand Elder of the Yanyue Sect heard the words "Spirit Transformation Stage", who had originally wanted to refuse at all costs, the icy color on his jade-like face melted a little, and was replaced by a look of shock, but he did not have any doubts.

Only she who had experienced the previous things would understand that what Zhao Shuang said was not just a joke, but it was really possible.

If she could advance to the Spiritual Transformation Stage now, it wouldn't matter if she and Nangong Wan were together. This would give her a thousand years of extra lifespan, and perhaps even a chance to ascend to the Spirit Realm. This temptation was something she couldn't refuse.

She was unwilling to give up even if there was only a glimmer of hope.

Otherwise, she would not have risked practicing the secret technique left by Zhao Shuang, putting herself into a deep sleep to prolong her life, waiting for Nangong Wan or Zhao Shuang to bring the elixir of life to wake her up.

"Okay, Master can agree to your request. But your goal shouldn't just be me and Wan'er. You've also got your eye on other people in the sect, right?"

The former Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect was silent for a long time before he gritted his teeth, agreed and asked again.

"Master has a keen eye, and I admire you. Instead of leaving the disciples to others, it is better to let me take care of them all. I have the ability and confidence to take good care of so many disciples, and my cultivation level will also be able to reach a higher level."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Shuang did not deny it, but admitted it openly.

After all, this is not the first time she has done such a thing, otherwise where would all the concubines and beauties in the Holy Demon Island of Chaos Star Sea and the Star Palace come from?

"Master, don't worry. Disciples below the Jindan stage are of little help to me. I won't touch them. I need to wait until they condense their golden elixir and advance to the Jindan stage before I touch them and let them help me cultivate."

Zhao Shuang continued.

There was no way. A cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage was of no use to him. Since he didn't have one, he naturally wouldn't waste his time and energy on it.

As for beauties, who in the entire Yanyue Sect can compare to Nangong Wan, Fairy Nishang, or at the very least, Master, the cold woman who is now the Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect.

There were also female cultivators in the Jindan stage from other sects, as well as Xin Ruyin, Jiang Yun, Zhong Weiniang and others before they left.

These people are now all Jindan stage cultivators, and have established a fairly large sect, which is quite famous in Tiannan.

"Master needs to think about this matter for a while, but I can only persuade Wan'er. If she refuses, you cannot force her."

The former Grand Elder of Yanyue Sect felt very complicated after hearing what Zhao Shuang said.

"Okay, of course. Disciple can agree to Master's request." Zhao Shuang chuckled and nodded.
