Good heavens, the ancestor has gone to confess his love again!

"boom--!!!"

These words resounded like a thunderclap in the banquet hall.

The entire room was deathly silent; you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone stared wide-eyed, their mouths agape, their faces filled with disbelief and horror.

Three catties of Nine Heavens Star River Dew?

That's a priceless treasure capable of bringing the dead back to life, healing the wounded, and even helping saints break through their bottlenecks. Even the Heavenly Martial Dynasty, the number one power in Qingzhou, would feel a bit of a pain if it had to give it up!

A hundred-pound black gold dragon pattern?

That's a divine object capable of forging high-level sacred weapons; it's extremely difficult to obtain, weighing a hundred pounds...

This is practically like bringing a whole mine here!

There's also Enlightenment Tea, Soul-Nourishing Golden Lotus, and Nine-Aperture Tribulation-Crossing Flower...

Any one of these treasures would be enough to cause fierce competition among the major powers of Qingzhou, and now this old man has actually brought out so many at once?!

What's even more outrageous is...

Quasi-Emperor's Weapon?

Did they hear me right?

There is probably only one Supreme Emperor Weapon in the entire Qingzhou, and there are only a handful of Quasi-Emperor Weapons. How could someone be able to offer one as a dowry?

"This...this old man has gone mad, hasn't he?" someone muttered unconsciously, their voice trembling.

"He emptied out the Moon Palace? That doesn't make sense. How could a gigolo like him have the right to touch the Moon Palace's treasures?"

The other person swallowed hard, his eyes filled with fear and confusion. "The Guanghan Immortal Palace has only been established for a little over five hundred years, and its foundation is still shallow. Even if it could really gather these things, it would suffer a great loss of strength and fall from the ranks of Qingzhou's first-rate forces!"

"Huh? Does the Moon Palace have quasi-Emperor weapons?"

Someone posed a thought-provoking question.

Even Wei Chong'an, who was lying on the ground, forgot to beg for mercy. He stared wide-eyed at Xu Pingsheng with a blank expression, as if he were looking at a complete madman.

Why make such a fuss over marrying Mu Wanrou, a used woman?

What a waste!

Xu Laowu was dumbfounded, staring straight at Xu Pingsheng.

A frantic roar erupted in my mind:

Holy crap! Old Deng, which big shot have you taken on a side job for this time?

With such a huge fortune, how many elderly babies are you taking care of at the same time?!

"Waaaaah~~ I really am Old Deng's most beloved son~~" Xu Laowu was so moved that he almost burst into tears on the spot.

Old Deng must have been secretly watching me all along, knowing that I was penniless. It was only during the past two years, while my biggest benefactor, the Yin-Yang Emperor, was in seclusion, that I secretly took on countless side jobs, enduring countless hardships and humiliations to scrape together such a large dowry...

As for how much humiliation and hardship he endured during the process, Xu Laowu dared not even imagine.

after all.

For example, the dragon-patterned black gold can only be produced in large quantities in the territory of the Silver Horned Python clan.

Could it be that Old Deng is with that hideously ugly silver-horned python...?

What the hell!

Dragon... Serpent Knight!

"Huh—" Old Xu suddenly shuddered, even more moved.

Old Deng was so good to him!

The most shocked person was Meng Anran.

She nestled in Xu Pingsheng's arms, her eyes, which were originally as cold as the moon, now filled with disbelief. Her delicate body stiffened slightly, and even her breathing slowed down.

Even the Guanghan Immortal Palace might not be able to produce the things that the other party just mentioned.

How could someone at the mere Innate Realm possess such things?

Moreover, there's also... a quasi-emperor weapon?

The difficulty of forging quasi-emperor weapons is beyond heaven-defying. It requires countless rare and precious materials and the imprint of the laws of emperor-level powerhouses. Most of them are controlled by ancient sects with profound foundations. The entire Guanghan Immortal Palace has never had one since its establishment.

If she could possess a quasi-Emperor weapon, her chances of killing that old bastard from the Azure Cloud Holy Land would definitely increase by 30%.

But, does Xu Pingsheng really have a chance?

Meng Anran subconsciously looked up at Xu Pingsheng, her eyes filled with doubt and confusion.

Lying in front of so many people, is that really necessary?

Xu Pingsheng sensed the doubt in the woman in his arms, lowered his head and winked at her, a mysterious smile playing on his lips, as if to say, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

He doesn't intend to keep a low profile any longer.

For the past two years, I've been giving out three daily confession rewards without fail. I don't know how many rare and precious treasures I've accumulated. Although there aren't many top-tier ones, there are quite a few below the Emperor rank. It's time to take them out and show them off.

Previously, I was too low in cultivation level, but now I have reached the first level of Quasi-Emperor. With the Heavenly Emperor Scripture and the Human Emperor Sword by my side, it's not unreasonable for me to enter the "I don't eat beef" phase in the small Qingzhou, right?

Adding a touch of sophistication can also increase a girl's attraction to you more quickly, right?

Then, he looked around the room again, his tone languid yet undeniably authoritative:

"What? Do you all think I'm exaggerating?"

Before he finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved it. Brilliant beams of light flew out from his sleeve, hovering in mid-air like shooting stars, instantly illuminating the entire banquet hall.

The crystal-clear Star River Dew emitted a soft halo, and the immense spiritual energy it contained made everyone present feel a sense of awe.

The hundred-pound black gold with dragon patterns was piled up like a small mountain, exuding an ancient and vast aura.

Ten golden lotuses, symbolizing the nourishment of the soul, stood tall and graceful. Their emerald green leaves shimmered with the light of Daoist principles, and their fragrant aroma filled the air, invigorating the spirit and bringing a sense of comfort to the soul.

……

It was undoubtedly a colorful ribbon floating in the center of the treasure.

The ribbon was woven entirely from seven-colored fairy silk, embroidered with the sun, moon, stars, flowers, birds, fish, and insects, with every stitch and thread containing profound Taoist charm.

Simply floating there, it exuded a chilling pressure, as if it came from the ancient primordial era, causing everyone present to subconsciously hold their breath.

"Wow! How beautiful! Is this the Nine Heavens Immortal Silk Belt, a quasi-Emperor weapon?"

The exaggerated and fashionable design of the Nine Heavens Fairy Ribbon instantly caused many people to scream.

Especially the pretty young ladies, their eyes lit up, wishing they could immediately replace Mu Wanrou.

Since ancient times, there have been very few quasi-imperial weapons made for women, let alone such an exquisite and beautiful ribbon that is clearly made specifically for women.

What woman could resist such a treasure?

Everyone present was completely dumbfounded as they stared at the terrifying treasures emanating from mid-air.

Ah Zhen, are you serious?

You can just make a few sarcastic remarks and we'll laugh at you, but now that you've actually put these treasures out there, how are we supposed to laugh?

Is it really that arrogant for a son to marry a divorced woman?

Dad, do you have any other daughters?

If all else fails, our son will do; we're willing to marry into the Xu family!

Meng Anran's pupils suddenly contracted, and a storm raged in her heart.

it is true!

It's all true!

The pure spiritual energy of the Nine Heavens Star River Dew, the vast aura of the dragon-patterned black gold, the soul-nourishing power of the Soul-Nourishing Golden Lotus, and the quasi-emperor pressure emanating from the Nine Heavens Immortal Ribbon...

There's no room for faking it!

What exactly is his background?

This moment.

Even if she were foolish, she would know that Xu Pingsheng was not as weak as he appeared to be at the Innate Realm, nor could he be just an ordinary ancestor from a small family like the Xu family.

Given his extraordinary background, why did he have to serve in the Guanghan Immortal Palace for so long? That night, when he was forced into a sexual encounter, he was powerless to resist, and in the days that followed, he was verbally abused for no reason but never talked back...

Thinking about how Xu Pingsheng would always make three inexplicable confessions before each work session these past few days, a bold guess instantly welled up in Meng Anran's mind.

"Could it be... that Xu Pingsheng truly loves me?"

Do not!

Maybe he initially liked the third sister, but as time went by, he started to like... himself?

The moment this thought crossed her mind, Meng Anran's heart, which had long been frozen and lifeless due to her cultivation, began to beat wildly and uncontrollably. Her fair cheeks flushed crimson, and even her ears burned.

"Have I been too harsh on Xu Pingsheng? Have I been too inconsiderate of his feelings?"

Meng Anran was in a state of confusion.

"When practicing the Yin-Yang Harmony Scripture, I only use him as a tool to improve my cultivation. I always directly refuse any dirty or excessive requests..."

Meng Anran's gaze unconsciously drifted towards the floating Nine Heavens Immortal Silk Ribbon. Under the reflection of the seven-colored light, an undisguised longing surged deep in her beautiful eyes.

If she were more proactive, completely compliant with Xu Pingsheng's requests, and even more gentle, would he be willing to give her such a treasure...?
