A public notice was posted seeking a wife, and a female saint from the Immortal Sect was found.

Throughout the day, Li Changqing bought a lot of things, most of which were for Chen Yi.

When the two returned to the Chen family home, it was already sunset.

Back in the courtyard, after putting away the things he had bought, Li Changqing turned and went into the house, quickly returning with two wooden boxes.

Chen Yi immediately understood that the wooden box must contain the gift that Li Changqing wanted to give him.

The wooden boxes were small. Li Changqing walked up to Chen Yi, handed one of the wooden boxes to Chen Yi, and then opened the wooden box in his hand.

Inside the wooden box was a rather ordinary jade plaque, but it was engraved with many runes.

Chen Yi also opened the jade box in his hand, inside which was a jade pendant that was exactly the same as the one in Li Changqing's hand.

"Infuse your spiritual power into the jade tablet," Li Changqing said.

Chen Yi neither refused nor asked any further questions. He infused a wisp of spiritual energy into the jade tablet, causing the runes carved on it to light up before quickly going out.

Next, Li Changqing and Chen Yi exchanged jade tokens, and then Li Changqing infused his own spiritual power into the jade tokens.

"These are jade spirit tablets, each imbued with the spiritual power you and I have poured into them. They're not particularly precious gifts; one for you and one for me," Li Changqing said.

"Okay, I'll carry it with me from now on," Chen Yi said.

After saying that, he put the jade spirit tablet around his neck and then fixed his eyes on Li Changqing.

By this point, he had too many questions in his mind, and since he had questions, he had to find out the answers.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Yi asked, "You said you had some things to do in a while and might not be back for a short time. What exactly are you going to do? Also, what is the meaning behind this jade spirit tablet you gave me?"

Upon hearing this, Li Changqing remained silent for a moment before saying, "It is a very important matter. Just consider it as me going back to pay respects to my master. As for the jade spirit tablet, it doesn't have any deep meaning. Just consider it an ordinary gift from me to you."

Chen Yi smiled, silently reciting in his mind: "Assess whether what Li Changqing just said is true."

The next instant, lines of text appeared on the system panel.

[Analysis: Lie]

[One: The important matter Li Changqing mentioned was not returning to pay respects to his master, but rather the struggle for the Earth Vein Spirit Chrysalis.]

[Li Changqing has already set up a spirit-capturing array near the location where the earth vein spirit pupa condensed. This array can remotely capture the earth vein spirit pupa and bring it into his hands.]

However, Li Changqing's cultivation level is currently too low, so he can only set up the Spirit Absorption Array a hundred meters away from where the Earth Vein Spirit Cocoon condenses. Beyond this distance, Li Changqing will find it difficult to control the array.

[A hundred meters is too short. Li Changqing has already explored a small portion of the underground cavern. After seizing the Earth Vein Spirit Chrysalis, he plans to escape through the cavern, which is far more complex than a maze. Even so, he only has a 30% chance of escaping alive.]

[This is why Li Changqing said he wouldn't be able to return anytime soon; moreover, he was prepared to never return.]

[Second: The jade spirit tablet that Li Changqing mentioned is actually called a soul spirit tablet. The runes carved on the jade tablet contain profound and mysterious meanings, and the jade tablet is infused with your and Li Changqing's spiritual power. This is already a simple yet very practical magical artifact.]

The sole purpose of the Soul Card is to allow the user to sense the life or death of another cardholder.

[This attempt to seize the opportunity was extremely dangerous, and Li Changqing's goal remained unchanged; she knew she would eventually leave the Chen family.]

If we leave, we will naturally be separated by vast distances, and may never meet again in this world.

[Li Changqing gave you this token because he thought that if he ever left the Chen family, he would still be able to sense whether you were alive or dead.]

[During this time, Li Changqing has occasionally thought about things with you, and feels that you are the kindest person to her in the world, besides her master.]

She feels grateful to you, and also has some vague, unspoken feelings of affection that she can't quite understand.

That's why I gave you the Soul Tablet.

[Final hint: Li Changqing has developed some feelings for you; we suggest you continue your efforts.]

After reviewing the system panel display, Chen Yi understood Li Chang's methods for seizing the Earth Vein Spirit Chrysalis.

He had heard of spirit-capturing arrays, but only heard of them; he had never actually seen one.

He had previously thought that Li Changqing was preparing to fight a Foundation Establishment cultivator head-on with his Qi Refining cultivation, but now it seems that he was overthinking things and that he was too inexperienced.

Li Changqing's methods were beyond his expectations, but this was in line with Li Changqing's identity.

However, despite his superb skills, Li Changqing's low strength made his plan extremely dangerous. At a distance of only 100 meters, a Foundation Establishment cultivator could catch up in an instant.

And then there's the Soul Spirit Tablet; he never expected Li Changqing to give him such a gift.

With this token, one can sense whether the other person is alive or dead; the token's effect silenced Chen Yi.

According to the system, Li Changqing already had a vague affection for him, which is why he gave him this jade pendant.

He felt that Li Changqing's way of expressing his affection was too subtle. If it weren't for the appraisal function, he didn't know when he would discover the true purpose of the jade pendant.

Even if they are separated by great distances, the jade pendant allows them to sense each other's life or death, which Chen Yi considers a very precious gift.

"What are you thinking about? Don't worry, I'll be back soon after I finish paying my respects," Li Changqing said when he saw Chen Yi deep in thought.

Chen Yi snapped out of his daze and couldn't help but laugh, saying, "Alright, it's only right to pay respects to your master, and I certainly won't stop you."

After saying that, Chen Yi suddenly became a little uneasy. The wedding date was approaching, and Li Changqing had given him a gift like the Soul Spirit Token. In fact, he was using the wedding as an opportunity to gain benefits from the Zhao family.

This is not his fault. Li Changqing's current appearance is that of a rogue cultivator, not his original appearance.

Therefore, marriage was no longer a consideration for Chen Yi. Only when Li Changqing was willing to interact with him in his true form would everything have any meaning.

But Li Changqing gave her a soul tablet, which seems to indicate that he values ​​the marriage quite a bit. If she finds out that he only wants to take advantage of the situation, will she get angry?

…………

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

Today is the day Chen Yi and Li Changqing are getting married.

According to customary customs, getting married is a very complicated affair. Before the wedding, six rites need to be prepared, and on the wedding day, the bride needs to be welcomed back, followed by the ceremony of bowing to the ancestors, and so on.

However, the Chen family didn't need such a complicated process. Li Changqing lived in the Chen family's house, so the formalities of betrothal and welcoming the new couple were naturally omitted.

Once relatives and friends arrive, the wedding ceremony can begin.

The Chen family didn't invite many people; Zhao Dezhi was one, and Chen Yi from the Zidan Sect also sent several invitations. It's unknown how many people will actually come.

Besides these, there were also members of the Chen family. The Ning and Zhang families had already been bought by the Chen family, so they couldn't invite two more neighbors.

The first guest to arrive was Zhao Dezhi.

Besides himself, he also brought more than ten servants carrying seven or eight gifts, showing Chen Yi a great deal of face.

"Brother Zhao, you're too kind." Chen Yi came over immediately and greeted Zhao Dezhi.

Zhao Dezhi waved his hand and said, "This is just a gift on the surface. What you really want, Patriarch Chen, is me. However, could you please reveal what the reward you promised is?"
