It all started with one person becoming a shaman, but the Stand user...

And these three names...

"Feng Shayan... Holy crap, could she be that young lady from the Tianxia Society?"

Deng Youcai was the first to react, his expression somewhat strange:

"The World Society has been making great strides in recent years, thriving in both the supernatural and business circles, and is showing signs of becoming a major power. His father, Feng Zhenghao, is said to be quite shrewd and not someone to be trifled with."

"As for Lu Linglong, isn't she one of the Ten Elders, the great-granddaughter of Old Master Lu Jin?"

Deng Youfu was also surprised. He pushed up his glasses and sighed:

"This one doesn't even need an introduction, you really have a high standard. But, who is the last one, Tao Tao?"

Judging from that name, could she be the daughter of some wealthy family in the circle? Are there any powerful figures with the surname Tao in the world of extraordinary people? I don't recall them at all.

"I don't think so?"

Deng Youcai also looked puzzled and licked his lips.

Feng Shayan and Lu Linglong are relatively well-known names among the younger generation of extraordinary people, but who is this "Tao Tao"?

Compared to the previous two, their fame seems to be worlds apart.

"My father is an outsider, and my mother is an inner member of the Tang Clan. She'll probably be a young teacher at the Tang Clan Martial Arts School, right?"

Qinghe Miao pondered for a moment, then spoke in an uncertain tone.

"Holy crap, this is really weird!"

Deng Youcai could no longer contain his curiosity; his eyes widened, and he couldn't help but complain:

"I've noticed that you hardly ever get involved in anything in this industry. How come you know more about the... uh, beauties in this industry than I do! I've never even been to the Tang Clan?!"

"And don't you find this list a bit odd? I don't see any pattern. What were you thinking? It's not just because these women are all pretty, is it?"

These three.

The first two are well-known; we've heard of them.

Aside from their illustrious family backgrounds and being daughters of wealthy families, they have virtually nothing in common in terms of their views within the industry.

Finally, an unknown "Tao Tao" appeared, and the style was completely wrong!

It's so asymmetrical, it's enough to drive someone with OCD crazy!

"Beauty is one aspect. After all, the conditions are what they are. I can't just intentionally marry an ugly woman to cultivate my character, can I? That would just be asking for trouble."

Qinghe Miao seemed to have anticipated their questions, and calmly began to explain:

“Feng Shayan is capable of managing her father’s affairs and has considerable skills. Moreover, her family is wealthy. With her family background, knowledge, and resources, she should be able to manage her relationship with my parents relatively easily and gracefully.”

More importantly, she is very obedient to her father's arrangements. Feng Zhenghao is a ruthless tyrant, and as long as I demonstrate potential that exceeds his expectations, it won't be difficult for him to marry his daughter to me, given sufficient benefits. Furthermore, I am not bad-looking or have a good personality, and I'm not a womanizer, so this marriage should basically go through.

As long as the plot doesn't suddenly turn into something cliché like "suddenly becoming a good-for-nothing" or "being jilted after a three-year engagement".

The family relationship after marriage must always be harmonious.

"Lu Linglong goes without saying. A true young lady from a prestigious family, clever and well-mannered."

He paused, then began to speak of the second person:

"Even though there may be differences in lifestyle and values ​​between my parents and me, we have enough mindset to respect each other, not interfere with each other, and maintain basic dignity and harmony."

Besides, winning over her great-grandfather, Mr. Lu Jin, might be easier than pursuing her directly. Of course, pursuing her requires a free-choice relationship. But as I said before, I'm not bad off, and with the added boost of his approval, if I sincerely put in the effort, the chances of success are quite high.

"There's one more person."

Deng Youcai was full of admiration and listened with rapt attention, then asked further questions.

He was even more serious about it than when he was analyzing his brother's trip abroad.

Chapter 63 A Monk Came to the Taoist Temple

"Tao Tao's situation is somewhat different."

Finally, when Tao Tao was mentioned, Qing Hemiao's tone seemed to become somewhat subtle:

"She is the complete opposite; I am confident that I can provide whatever she needs. Moreover, she has a very high level of mental cultivation, which is enough to withstand all kinds of disturbances and pressures from outside the family."

But precisely because of her lofty character and clear-headed perspective, the opportunity to pursue her may only come once. There are few shortcuts; one needs to be straightforward. If she likes someone, she likes them; if she doesn't, she doesn't. It's difficult to influence or sway her through other factors.

After listening to Qinghe Miao's analysis.

The brothers Deng Youcai and Deng Youfu remained silent for a long time, feeling utterly speechless.

"Are you here for a blind date, or to have a friendly discussion about heroes?"

Finally, after holding it in for a long time, Deng Youcai, his lips twitching and teeth aching, said:

"Damn! You know so much about this, I'm starting to suspect you've secretly learned some sorcerer techniques."

Otherwise, from which nook or cranny was this intelligence dug out?

Deng Youfu's eyes were opened to a whole new world.

"Xiaoqing, I don't even know what to say to you."

But coming to his senses, he could only shake his head with a wry smile and carefully say:

"However, I'm not kidding. If you're serious, we can talk to Grandma later and ask her to help bring them together in a suitable setting."

"I've already said there's no rush."

Qinghe Miao waved his hand, laughing as usual, as if the request he had just made was not what he had said:

"The idea is real, but there's no need to deliberately pursue it. Things come and go naturally. When the time comes, if a suitable match is available, I won't be picky. But before that, if someone is already taken, we shouldn't ruin their relationship. That would be too immoral."

Believe it or not, with my talent alone, putting aside other families, if that 'mad dog' old man Lu Cilu knew, he'd probably be begging me to come to his door, kneel down, and beg me to be his son-in-law. I can choose any of the younger generation, with absolutely no family conflicts whatsoever.”

He took a sip of his drink, but made two "tsk tsk" sounds, revealing a slightly disgusted expression.

"However, there are serious problems with the bloodline of the Lu family. The entanglements within are too troublesome. I really don't... have any respect for them."

You still haven't cultivated your mental state enough!

They cannot treat people equally.

"Another one of the Ten Elders. Awesome!"

Deng Youcai was speechless with shock for the umpteenth time, and could only give a thumbs up:

"Thank goodness my mom didn't give birth to either of us as girls, otherwise... never mind, let's not talk about it anymore, come on, let's drink!"

If I listened any longer, I felt like his worldview was going to be completely overhauled.

He simply raised his glass, dismissing the increasingly outrageous remarks as drunken ramblings, and downed it in one gulp.

"drink."

"I'll do it, you can do whatever you want."

The drinking went on until very late, when the barbecue restaurant owner politely reminded them that they were closing up shop. The three of them left, still feeling unsatisfied and slightly tipsy.

It's too late, so we need to avoid disturbing Qinghe Miao's family.

The Deng brothers then took him to a clean hotel nearby to stay in.

The next morning, Qinghe Miao had to rush back to school to attend classes and catch up on sleep.

Deng Youfu and Deng Youcai slept until the sun was high in the sky, feeling completely comfortable, before getting up to tidy up.

However, instead of leaving the county town directly, he drove to the village where Qinghe Miao's family lived.

They first arrived near an abandoned hall at the village entrance, which in recent years had somehow become a gathering place for the village's elderly to chat during the day.

The two brothers did not approach the hall.

He simply wandered around casually a few times, calmly surveying the surrounding terrain and environment.

Afterwards, they went to the shops in town.

They purchased some incense, candles, gold ingots, yellow paper, as well as several paper-mache figures of a boy and a girl, several white horses, and several yellow oxen.

They returned to the vicinity of the auditorium and found a quiet, secluded corner to carry people.

Deng Youfu and Deng Youcai, with solemn expressions, skillfully set up the preparations.

They lit incense and candles, burned paper money and yellow paper, and chanted incantations, which were secret spells used by the shamanic lineage to arrange and transform spiritual realms.

All of this was accomplished quietly.

After the ceremony, the two brothers carefully buried the paper figures of the golden boy and jade girl, the white horse and the yellow ox in pairs in several inconspicuous places around the hall.

The Deng brothers knew about Qinghe Miao's spirit-like Henan opera master.

Qinghe Miao had mentioned this matter to Guan Shihua a long time ago.

Guan Shihua also sighed after hearing this.

That formation was interesting, but with her cultivation level, neither forcibly breaking it nor performing a ritual to send it off to the afterlife would be difficult for her.

But I thought that he was also a person with a tragic fate.

Although the obsession exists, it is not inherently evil, and the spirit cannot persist for long; it will naturally dissipate into the world within a few years.

With Qinghe Miao living in the same village, he couldn't cause any trouble.

Therefore, no one intervened.

This time, the two brothers had already reached a sufficient level of cultivation, so they stopped by to leave a message.

To ensure that the unfortunate spirit will have a more comfortable and smooth journey when it returns to the afterlife, without any further turmoil or suffering.

This can be considered as fulfilling a predestined relationship between Qinghe Miao and this master.

After doing all this, the two of them carried the gifts they had specially bought and formally paid a visit to Qinghe Miao's family.

Both parties know about each other.

The Qinghe Miao family was naturally very welcoming to the Deng brothers.

During the conversation, Deng Youfu's upcoming studies abroad were mentioned, which evoked a wave of emotions and envy.

Not long after this incident, news came that Deng Youfu had officially completed the formalities and was ready to go abroad.

In the years that followed, he would only occasionally return home once or twice during holidays.

After graduating from university, Deng Youcai unsurprisingly chose to return to his hometown.

He is a legitimate local gunman.

With his skills at his disposal, he quickly found himself living a comfortable and fulfilling life amidst the local glitz and glamour.

They were quite pleased with themselves.

Qinghe Miao was so envious that his teeth itched.

In his past life, he graduated from university.

He hadn't even been home for two days before he began a life of wandering and displacement, far from his hometown.

Even though he could now do nothing and stay in his hometown for the rest of his life.

He is now a practitioner of spiritual cultivation.

But she still cared a little.

It's true what they say, comparisons are the thief of joy.

With this mindset, Qinghe Miao's life entered the intense senior year of high school.

The period was relatively uneventful.

Except for one day, when a group of monks came to Feng Lingyue Yingguan in the dungeon "Bad Guys".

"You masters wouldn't be planning to say that this temple or monastery was yours before, would you?"

Qinghe Miao looked at the bald men with a strange expression and said.

Through continuous efforts to shelter refugees and provide labor relief, the originally dilapidated little temple has long been repaired and transformed into a complete Taoist temple.

Unbeknownst to them, the place had gained a reputation as a "good place" among the surrounding refugees.
