Infiltrating the righteous path? Just another place to be a sycophant.

Five social insurances and two housing funds are standard, and some sects even offer six social insurances and two housing funds.

Having a good sect is a major guarantee on the path of cultivation.

"That female fairy, which sect do you belong to?"

"Oh, I'm in the Lingmiao Sect, and I'm the deputy sect leader there."

Now Zhao Dong understood. No wonder he was so arrogant; it turned out he was just a deputy sect leader of a small sect.

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of sects called Lingmiao Sect or something like that. Small sects are as numerous as grains of sand, impossible to count.

But he also knew that these women were the most difficult to deal with.

His cultivation level wasn't great, but because he held a minor position in the sect and commanded a lot of respect, he was extremely arrogant.

They can't get into the major sects, but they can't leave the smaller sects.

Zhao Dong used to be in one of these small sects. The interests within these sects were very intertwined, so it was difficult for everyone to get along. In the end, he simply left.

"Okay, then let's leave it at that."

"Fellow Daoist Zhao, what do you mean by this? Do you think my sect is inadequate?"

"No, I just feel that we might not be a good match. I've been talking about myself all this time, but you..."

"I'm just not very talkative. Fellow Daoist Zhao, you've been traveling for so long, do you have a cave dwelling or a small courtyard with spiritual energy?"

"I call the whole world my home..."

"So there isn't one?"

In the phrase.

Zhao Dong felt extremely uncomfortable and, realizing he had no reason to stay any longer, got up to leave: "Sorry to bother you."

"Okay, actually I'm quite satisfied with you. We can talk about how much dowry you're willing to give?"

Zhao Dong was a little stunned. He hadn't expected this attitude, which actually meant he was alright. So he didn't dare to be negligent and quickly said, "The bride price... I wonder how much Fellow Daoist Li requires?"

The female cultivator opposite her was equally blunt, holding up three fingers and saying, "I want 300,000 high-grade spirit stones, a spirit vein cave dwelling. I can make the down payment, and we'll pay it off together, but the deed can only be in my name. I also want a high-grade spirit sword, a high-grade spirit horse, and a carriage."

The female cultivator spoke these words with an air of self-righteousness on her face.

But Zhao Dong's eyes widened: "What!? That's too much!?"

This dowry, which was like a bombshell, completely baffled Zhao Dong.

Isn't this robbery?

He can only earn about a hundred high-grade spirit stones a month, and that's from doing various tasks. How could he possibly earn 300,000 spirit stones for a dowry?

Cultivation also requires spirit stones. I was injured recently and broke through to the seventh level of the Nascent Soul stage, which depleted my savings of many years. Now I can't save any more.

"Is it a lot? Not at all, I just want some security."

"May I ask, Fellow Daoist Li, how many spirit stones do you earn per month?"

"About twenty to thirty high-grade spirit stones, supplemented by the sect's monthly allowance and by the amount I receive when I go out on missions."

Different cities have places where tasks are posted to earn spirit stones, so some people from small sects come out to earn spirit stones.

However, major sects have their own good missions and do not need to ask others for help, which is also an advantage of major sects.

far away.

Upon hearing about the woman's income, Zhao Dong couldn't help but ask, "Since your income isn't much either, why are your demands so high?"

The female cultivator scoffed, "With my looks and status, I wouldn't even look at a cultivator who only earns five hundred a month. I only chose you because you seem honest and reliable, and I felt I could entrust you with something. Otherwise, would I have gone this far with you?"

Zhao Dong's lips twitched slightly. He didn't understand how a Golden Core Deputy Sect Master of a small sect could be considered to have a high status.

If they were robbing treasure outside, he would kill them with a single blow.

However, you must restrain yourself. This is a city, not a lawless place like outside. Besides, he is a reasonable person, not a demonic cultivator. You can't kill someone just because you disagree with him.

"If you can't provide the answer, then you can leave."

This time, Zhao Dong really stopped talking and got up to leave the room.

As soon as he stepped out, Matchmaker Wang came up to him and asked, "Fellow Daoist Zhao, how did the talks go this time?"

Zhao Dong shook his head and said, "She doesn't think much of me."

Matchmaker Wang exclaimed in shock, "How is that possible? She's only at the eighth level of the Golden Core stage, how could she look down on you?"

"She... sigh..."

So Zhao Dong told Wang the matchmaker what had happened, and Wang frowned as she listened.

"Never mind, never mind, it's alright, Fellow Daoist Zhao, I have more here, take another look, I'll go make some arrangements."

Matchmaker Wang made the arrangements, but Lu An and Hao Jian overheard everything clearly.

Lu An hadn't expected that the cultivation world was such a mixed bag.

The requirements are surprisingly high.

Hao Jian asked curiously, "Fellow Daoist Zhao, why do you insist on dual cultivation? You're only two hundred years old. Even if you cultivate alone, you can still break through to the Nascent Soul stage and extend your lifespan."

“Fellow Daoist Hao, you may not know this, but before I advanced to the seventh level, I was poisoned by a demonic cultivator. He smeared the poison on my body. Now I either have to find the Divine Pill Workshop to refine an antidote for me, or I can only use dual cultivation to detoxify myself.”

"The antidote from the Divine Pill Workshop is too expensive for me to afford, so dual cultivation is the only path I can take. If this path also fails, my hope of becoming an immortal... no, my hope of advancement in this life is completely gone."

"What kind of dual cultivation technique do you have? It can even detoxify? Where did you get it?"

"A friend recommended it; I bought it from the Drunken Dream Pavilion of the Hehuan Sect..."

Lu An suddenly thought of Liu Yunyan.

Is it really true that dual cultivation can resolve all laws?

However, he could understand that it must be very difficult for a cultivator like Zhao Dong, who was a rogue cultivator without any sect or school.

"Don't be afraid, she's just a woman. I'll get revenge for you."

Lu Ping patted Zhao Dong on the shoulder, intending to go in and teach the woman a lesson.

Hao Jian, however, spoke up before him, saying, "Junior Brother Lu, let me handle this kind of thing. I've never seen anything like it before."

Chapter 181 As Expectedly Outrageous

"Hello, my name is Hao Jian, and I'm here for a blind date."

"Hao Jian? Hello, my name is Li Yuanrun."

The two stood up, greeted each other politely, and then sat down.

"Then let's introduce ourselves. I come from the Lingmiao Sect and am the Vice Sect Master. My cultivation level is the eighth level of the Golden Core stage."

"Lingmiao Sect? Where is that? I've never heard of it."

"It's...it's a sect in the eastern part of the Kyushu Continent..."

"How many people are there? What are their rankings?"

Li Yuanrun was dumbfounded. Why was this guy checking her household registration first?

I was the one who informed her about those people first.

So she got a little angry.

However, she still suppressed her anger and said, "Hahaha, there are about three hundred people, and the ranking... is not yet in the ranking."

Hao Jian pressed further, "Not ranked? Below level E?"

Li Yuanrun stammered, "No, it's a little higher than that, it's level D, but in terms of ranking, it's almost there..."

Hao Jian said with a face full of disdain, "A level D sect? Doesn't that mean they even rent out their sect territory?"

"Fellow Daoist, you mustn't say that. What sect didn't start from scratch? My sect was built up with our own hard work, how dare you slander it?"

"What did I say about you? A D-level sect, and the sect territory is rented. Is there a problem with that? If it wasn't rented, with a size of 300 people, it would probably be at least a C-level sect, right?"

Li Yuanrun had no way to refute it, because it was indeed as he said, and the person in front of her did not slander her.

But that tone of voice, that look in her eyes, made her feel uncomfortable no matter how she looked at it.

“Our sect is small, but it’s not… By the way, what level of sect do you belong to, fellow Daoist?” Li Yuanrun suddenly changed the subject, asking with a hint of sarcasm.

Hao Jian's eyes were filled with indifference: "I don't need to mention the level of my sect. Just tell me a name, and you should know it."

"Oh? Tell me then, although my sect is second-rate, if your sect is just like this, then I..."

"Then let me introduce myself again. I am Hao Jian, from Yuan Tian Sheng Zong, Tian Jian Peak, and my master is Li Zhen Chun."

As soon as Hao Jian uttered those words, Li Yuanrun, who had prepared to use them to mock Hao Jian, suddenly found herself unable to say them.

Li Yuanrun's expression changed drastically in an instant: "Yuan Tian Holy Sect...? The number one righteous sect in the world?"

Hao Jian nodded and said, "That's right..."

Li Yuanrun, however, did not believe it: "No, if you are from the Yuantian Sacred Sect, why would you come here to participate in this kind of matchmaking event? Are you trying to impersonate someone from the Yuantian Sacred Sect?"

"I've seen plenty of guys like you, bragging about having powerful sects backing you up, then swindling young girls out of their money and sex. Let me tell you, I'm not that easy to fool. I'm..."

Snapped!

"This is my disciple's token from the Yuan Tian Sacred Sect, and my Heavenly Sword Peak's token. If you have any doubts, you are welcome to verify it yourself!"

Hao Jian threw his disciple token directly onto the table, and Li Yuanrun raised his trembling hand to carefully examine it.

In fact, she had never seen the disciple token of the Yuan Tian Sheng Sect before, but the feel of it was completely different from the cheap wooden tokens used in their sect!

This token is made of high-end material like purple gold!

Tokens made of this level of material are not easy to obtain!

If it weren't for a major sect or a wealthy family of cultivators, how could they afford to do such a thing?

Even if he's not from the Yuan Tian Holy Sect, this guy is still rich!

Instantly, Li Yuanrun's gaze towards Hao Jian changed.

Her thoughts shifted from disdain to surprise, and then to admiration.

High-quality male cultivator! You must seize this opportunity!

Li Yuanrun's attitude then changed completely: "I was blind and didn't recognize your greatness. My voice was a little too loud. I'm very sorry. If I offended you, Fellow Daoist Hao, I apologize now."

Finding a Daoist partner is also a kind of opportunity. If your Daoist partner is backed by a major sect, then you will also have the opportunity to enter the major sect, thus going further and more smoothly on the path of cultivation.

"It's alright, let's continue talking."

"How is your cultivation level, fellow Daoist?"

"Oh, Nascent Soul Level 4, not as good as that guy from before."

"That's not how it works, fellow Daoist. How old are you?"

"Not old, only sixty-seven years old."

Li Yuanrun was already making plans in her mind.

At sixty-seven years old, he had already reached the fourth level of the Nascent Soul stage. What else could he be but a genius?

As expected of the Yuan Tian Sacred Sect, the cultivation levels of all the cultivators within are guaranteed to be high.

Although I've heard that the Yuan Tian Sheng Sect's way of doing things is a bit unorthodox, the cultivators who can enter the sect are all incredibly powerful in terms of cultivation and talent!

Hao Jian continued, "What is your cultivation level? How old are you?"

Li Yuanrun's face stiffened instantly, but she forced a smile and said, "This...this young lady...is at the eighth level of the Golden Core stage, and over a hundred...over a hundred years old..."

"Over a hundred years old? More than a hundred?"

"She's over a hundred years old, Fellow Daoist Hao, how can you do this? A girl's age is a secret, you can't..."

"You're being so secretive before even becoming Daoist partners. In that case, I'll take my leave."

Hao Jian took back the token, got up and left.

"Wait, I said I'm 196 years old!"

Seeing that Hao Jian was about to leave, Li Yuanrun quickly told him her age.

"One hundred and ninety-six years old, eighth level of the Golden Core stage? Have you been cultivating in the dog's belly? Useless trash!"
