Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 143 Will We Sleep Together?

The next morning, as expected, someone from the Longevity Sect came to invite them over for a meeting.

Zhou Qing did not go with his two senior uncles, but instead gave them detailed instructions on things to pay attention to, including a new way he had thought of to strengthen cooperation: setting up a special counter.

The two sects setting up counters in each other's shops not only expands their respective markets but also strengthens their ties of mutual benefit.

Although Zhou Qing proposed the plan, the one truly qualified to represent the Qingyun Sect in negotiations was Elder Chen Qingxuan, so whether Zhou Qing went or not didn't really matter.

He was certain that Qingyuan would come to him soon to ask about his conversation with Aoki Masato last night, so he stayed behind to wait for her.

Sure enough, not long after her two senior uncles left, Qingyuan peeked in furtively from outside the door. When she found that there were no outsiders in the guest house, she relaxed and barged into Zhou Qing's room, calling out, "Zhou Qing, didn't the old man make things difficult for you last night?"

Zhou Qing smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, we just talked about some things."

Qingyuan was relieved and said, "You're so disloyal. I was speaking up for you, but you colluded with the old man to send me away. I wanted to know what he was going to say."

"I don't care, you have to tell me what he said to you."

Zhou Qing hesitated.

He now understood why Master Aoki didn't allow Qingyuan to listen in.

Aoki Masato said a lot, perhaps because his guilt made him unable to control himself, so he unconsciously said a lot of things to defend himself. But if you summarize his words, you will know that he only meant one thing.

He no longer wanted this daughter.

It contains the helplessness of a sect leader, but that's just how it is.

Aoki Makoto raised Qingyuan by his side from a young age, isolating her from contact with outsiders, making her dependent on him. Now, the only person she can rely on is going to push her away.

Aoki Jinshin knew how cruel this was, so he didn't let Qingyuan listen in. Partly it was for Qingyuan's sake, worrying that her sensitive nature would be severely damaged, and partly it was because he himself found it difficult to face.

Zhou Qing thought for a moment and finally decided to keep the truth from Qing Yuan. He smiled and said, "I didn't say anything. Senior Qing Mu plans to have you come back to Qingyun Sect with me and ask me to take care of you for a while."

Qingyuan's eyes widened instantly, her face filled with surprise and joy, and she exclaimed, "Really?!"

"When did the old man come to his senses? I've begged him so many times to let me go out and play by myself, but he's never agreed."

Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "Wrong. I'm not telling you to go play by yourself. You have to stay by my side, just like you used to stay by Senior Aoki's side."

Qingyuan was taken aback, then suddenly looked a little hesitant and asked, "Will we sleep together? Will we have children?"

Zhou Qing understood what she was thinking and said, "We won't sleep together, and we certainly won't have children."

"If you like, you can sleep together occasionally, but not often, otherwise I will get impatient. Having children is definitely out of the question."

Qingyuan chuckled and said, "Actually, I don't like sleeping with others either. It's too much trouble for two people to share a bed. But I heard that after marriage, everyone has to sleep together."

"Who wants to marry you?"

Zhou Qing said, "I am only taking care of you at the request of Master Qingmu."

"Oh."

Qingyuan happily agreed. She had no objection to marriage, as long as she could leave the Changsheng Sect, she would be happy.

The negotiations between the Changsheng Sect and the Qingyun Sect went very smoothly.

Since Aoki Masato had made his decision, Lü Yuyi, who was in charge of the negotiations, naturally had no choice but to follow orders.

A major difference between the Longevity Sect and the Azure Cloud Sect is that the Longevity Sect only has one Golden Core cultivator. Therefore, this Golden Core cultivator wields absolute authority within the sect and is not subject to excessive constraints. Moreover, Zhou Qing's proposed measures did indeed balance the interests of both sides, so Lü Yuyi did not find them difficult to accept.

Zhou Qing's proposal to set up dedicated counters further piqued his interest.

Each sect has many loyal customers who are accustomed to buying things from the sect they are familiar with, and will not go into the shops of other sects.

Setting up dedicated counters can attract markets that were previously inaccessible, which is beneficial to both parties.

The negotiations were completed, and both parties signed a written agreement, thus finalizing the matter.

Next, the managers on the front lines carried out their orders.

Wang Xuanji was the largest manager of the Qingyun Sect within the Changsheng Sect's territory, and he was beaming with joy.

He had no desire to linger at the Longevity Sect and immediately wanted to return to make a big splash.

Chen Qingxuan and Zhou Qing also wanted to return to Qingyun Sect immediately to report this good news to the sect.

The two sects have never had a good relationship, especially after Mu Zhuosha caused a scene at the Changsheng Sect, which further affected their interactions.

The signing of this contract undoubtedly takes the relationship between the two companies a step further.

Therefore, all three declined the Changsheng Sect's offer to stay and planned to leave immediately.

Master Qingmu and Lü Yuyi escorted the three to the Respectful Guest Platform of the Longevity Sect, the place where guests of the Longevity Sect ascended to heaven on flying swords.

Chen Qingxuan summoned his small flying boat, gesturing for Zhou Qing to come aboard.

Then he was surprised to see that Zhou Qing let Qingyuan board the boat first.

The two senior uncles asked in surprise, "Zhou Qing, what is this?"

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Master Qingyuan is coming back to Qingyun Sect with me."

what?
Both of their senior uncles were stunned for a moment, then looked back and forth between the two men with strange eyes.

Wang Xuanji winked at him, thinking to himself, "This kid keeps saying he doesn't want to get married, but he's managed to snatch away that girl without a word."

Qingyuan was about to board the ship when she suddenly felt something was amiss. She turned back, looked at Master Qingmu, and said, "Father, if you miss me, come to Qingyun Sect to see me."

She thought to herself smugly, "Who said I'm not smart? I only asked my father to come to Qingyun Sect to see me, but I didn't ask him to take me away."

Zhou Qing saw a trace of sadness in Qingmu Zhenren's eyes. He understood that Qingmu Zhenren must have a way to suppress his emotions. Once he made his choice, father and daughter would be strangers. Not to mention bringing Qingyuan back, he would not even visit her at Qingyun Sect again.

Zhou Qing was also someone who could overcome all emotions in pursuit of immortality, but at this moment he couldn't help but feel a sense of melancholy.

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, senior, I will take good care of Qingyuan."

Master Aoki smiled and nodded, saying, "Thank you for your trouble."

"I have already taught Qingyuan what you wanted. You can have her give it to you silently when you get back."

Zhou Qing nodded, and then, together with Qing Yuan, waved goodbye to the people of the Longevity Sect and boarded Chen Qingxuan's flying boat.

Chen Qingxuan activated the flying boat, and the three of them took off into the air, quickly disappearing into the clouds and flying westward.

Qingyuan looked down at the ever-shrinking Changsheng Sect's White Head Mountain and suddenly felt a pang of sadness.
