Chapter 149: Chapter 149: Shall We Make a Bet?_l

Unexpectedly, Li Ruoyu suddenly interjected, “Isn’t this the perfect solution?

Senior Sister has always been troubled by people pestering her within the Sect. If you marry the Clan Leader of the Qin family, no one will bother you again. And if anyone still tries to pester you, you can just tell them that you’re already a married woman. That would finally grant you some peace.”

“Junior Sister!” Zhuge Wanqing became somewhat annoyed. “Don’t talk nonsense. My whole heart is devoted to the pursuit of alchemy. If you want to find a Taoist couple, you can just agree to the marriage proposal from the Clan

Leader of the Qin family! ”

Li Ruoyu indifferently said, “Senior Sister, you seem to have forgotten. I already have a marriage engagement.”

Zhuge Wanqing hesitated, suddenly recalling Li Ruoyu’s situation.

She was a disciple of the Master of Qingyang Pavilion... that is, the Vice Pavillion Master of Danqing Pavilion. At the same time, she was also the daughter-in-law the Vice Pavilion Master had recognized.

The Vice Pavilion Master had a son who fell in love with Li Ruoyu at first sight. Thus, the Vice Pavilion Master went to the Li Family to propose marriage.

In such large forces, relationships and status were of utmost importance. When the Li Family saw that it was the Vice Pavilion Master of Danqing Pavilion proposing marriage, how could they refuse?

And as the saying goes, “parents’ orders and the words of a matchmaker,” even cultivators had to obey. Unless Li Ruoyu was strong enough to defy her family’s decisions, but she was obviously far from that level of power.

Moreover, without this connection, how could the Vice Pavilion Master cultivate her without any reservations?

Although Li Ruoyu had strong talents, this world was never short of geniuses. To those in high positions, sometimes an obedient person was more valuable than a powerful one.

On the side, Qin Changqing finally understood the sisters’ situation. One was devoted to alchemy, and the other, unknown whether she was devoted or not, was already engaged. If he took action again, wouldn’t he be a meddler?

But then again, it might not count.

After all, wasn’t the situation with his Murong wife the same?

This wasn’t meddling; this was saving beauties from torment!

Qin Changqing said, “Miss Li, I think for such a significant matter as marriage, it’s essential to marry someone you like. As a cultivator, even if you don’t reach the Nascent Soul Realm, you can still live for hundreds of years. Do you really want to spend every day under the same roof as someone you don’t like?”

“Not just under the same roof, but on the same table, in the same room, sharing the same bed, waking up every morning to see a disgusting pig beside you... can you imagine how that would feel?”

“What is Miss Zhuge referring to?”

“About wanting me to become a Taoist Couple with my junior sister.” Zhuge Wanqing whispered, “Do you know how detrimental it is for you to say such a thing? If my Master hears about this, she will not let you go easily.”

Qin Changqing spread his hands: “That’s why I say you have a problem with your thinking. Always worrying about this and that, eventually forgetting your own true intentions. How can you talk about cultivating? If your heart is not clear, your thoughts will not reach their destination, and soon you will be troubled by your Heart Devil, hindering your path.” “But can everything go according to our wishes?”

“How do you know if you don’t try?”

Facing the persistent Qin Changqing, Zhuge Wanqing laughed helplessly,

“Master Qin, you really don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth.” Qin Changqing said solemnly: “But how does Miss Zhuge know my depth?” Zhuge Wanqing was stunned.

Her words were laughing at Qin Changqing for living so freely, but it was just in the small Yinxu Prefecture.

But now it seemed that could it be there was another side to Qin Changqing, unknown to her?

At this moment, Qin Changqing laughed, “Doesn’t Miss Zhuge want to meet someone who can refine top-grade elixirs? I can tell you, that person’s alchemy skills are indeed good, with a success rate of about 80% for refining top-grade elixirs. ”

“80%!?” Zhuge Wanqing was stunned, “How is that possible...”

Even for those with a high success rate for elixirs, they wouldn’t dare to claim 80%.

Not to mention refining top-grade elixirs.

“Everything is possible, just like when you thought I didn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth, and now you are the same.”

“But... ”

“What, don’t believe me?” Qin Changqing chuckled, “How about we make a bet?”

Zhuge Wanqing was curious, “Bet on what?”

“Bet on alchemy skills. After the Alchemy Convention is over, my friend will have an alchemy competition with Miss Zhuge. If he wins and refines a top-grade elixir, will you agree to be my Taoist couple?”

Taoist couple, Taoist couple, Taoist couple – why is it always a Taoist couple? Can’t you ask for something else? Zhuge Wanqing was very helpless.

“What if he loses?”

“If he loses? Leave it up to you. You can even bring him to the Danqing Pavilion if you want.”

Zhuge Wanqing frowned, “If you say this, what if his alchemy realm is higher than mine? Wouldn’t that mean I’m bound to lose?”
