Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 942: Chapter 943: Marry an Older Woman, Bring Home a Fortune! (Part 1)

Originally, everyone believed Ling Feng would be acknowledged by his ancestors and become an exceptionally prominent descendant within the Cai family, bringing glory to the family name. This was why General Cai had almost gathered all the clan elders to witness Ling Feng’s recognition ceremony together.

Who could have thought that the result would only be empty joy? Despite his disappointment, General Cai still imparted the Cai family’s Speech Spirit Spell to Ling Feng without reservation.

This made Ling Feng feel somewhat guilty; the old man had been quite good to him, yet he had to deceive him with lies.

However, there was no other choice; telling the truth wouldn’t be believed, so he had to use this kind-hearted lie as his escape.

General Cai dismissed the clan elders from the main hall and personally took Ling Feng and Cai Yan to the study, where he handed a thin booklet to Ling Feng.

”This is the lone copy of the Speech Spirit Spell we obtained back in the day. Its subtleties are endless; the first few curse seals are primarily for control, but from the eighth curse seal onward, their power is extraordinary! As for the twelfth curse seal, no one has successfully cultivated it for hundreds of years.”

General Cai made hand formations, and a light sphere condensed from Primordial Qi and Divine Sense power floated at his fingertips. He said lightly, ”This is the ninth curse seal, Blast Spirit Curse. I’ve cultivated for over fifty years to reach my current level of proficiency.”

Ling Feng couldn’t help but catch his breath; the power of this light sphere could likely threaten experts of the Human Emperor level.

”I will certainly study this with dedication.”

A glimmer of brilliance flashed in Ling Feng’s eyes; mastering the Speech Spirit Spell would be an exceptionally powerful trump card.

After all, with the ’Soul Splitting Technique,’ a heavenly-resistant secret art, his Divine Sense power was destined to far surpass others. In the future, he could unleash hundreds, even thousands, of ’Blast Spirit Curse’ seals in one breath, annihilating a multitude of experts.

”Ah, who would’ve thought you aren’t a descendant of the Cai family!”

A trace of disappointment appeared on Cai Yan’s face, ”I was hoping I could have another cousin!”

Ling Feng rubbed his nose and didn’t respond; he wasn’t accustomed to randomly acknowledging sisters.

”Hehe.” General Cai glanced at his granddaughter and then at Ling Feng a few times, suddenly laughing, ”Actually, even though you aren’t a descendant of our Cai family, it doesn’t mean you can’t become one of us.”

”What method?” Cai Yan’s beautiful eyes flashed and she looked at General Cai.

”Of course, by marrying you, this girl. As the saying goes, a daughter-in-law is like half a son, and a granddaughter’s husband is like half a grandson.” General Cai laughed heartily: ”Ling Feng, although my granddaughter is a few years older than you, the old saying goes, ’a woman three years older is like a gold brick’! Would you consider it?”

”Uh...” A few black lines shot up Ling Feng’s forehead. This old fellow, messing around and matchmaking without reason.

Before he could speak, Cai Yan blushed and gave General Cai a hard look, ”Grandfather, what are you talking about?!”

With that, Cai Yan hurriedly fled. Although she usually appeared strong, in situations like this, she still revealed a shy demeanor.

”Hey, girl, this guy isn’t too bad!”

General Cai was still unwilling to give up, shouting a few more words at Cai Yan’s back, but her pace quickened and in the blink of an eye, she was gone.

”Ling Feng, my young friend, you...”

”Senior, let’s not discuss this further. I’m not currently considering marriage.”

Ling Feng smiled bitterly and bowed to Cai Yongshi, ”Thank you again, senior, for your willingness to impart the secret arts. I have some other matters to attend to, so I won’t disturb you further.”

”Alright then.” General Cai smiled wryly, ”Ah, it’s a pity. If only you were truly a descendant of the Cai family, how great it would be.”

Ling Feng looked deeply at General Cai, with the image of his grandfather (Ling Kun) flashing in his mind. Ever since his grandfather sent him to the Wenxian Sect, he hadn’t seen him again.

Only a shocking ”escape” word was left in that inn.

Now, although he had obtained the second half of the ’Supreme Mysterious Acupuncture Scripture,’ he still had no clues regarding his grandfather.

In the vast sea of people, where could he find his grandfather?

Thinking about this, Ling Feng felt a wave of emotion and said solemnly: ”Senior, I think I can understand your feelings. I also believe that one day you will find your son and reconcile with him.”

”You, young fellow, it’s surprising how you seem to have experienced life already despite your young age.”

General Cai gently patted Ling Feng’s shoulder, ”Alright, because of your words, I count you as a true friend. If you ever need help or encounter difficulties in the study of the Speech Spirit Spell, feel free to come to me.”

”Thank you, senior.”

Ling Feng bowed to Cai Yongshi once again before no longer lingering and directly left General Hu Wei’s Mansion.

This farce was finally dealt with and even provided him with a secret technique; it wasn’t in vain.

After leaving the mansion, Ling Feng remembered his agreement with General Deng. Since he was already out, he decided to visit General Ying Yang’s Mansion.

After some pleasantries, Ling Feng taught Deng Yongshi several swordsmanship techniques and also gifted her a semi-finished Holy Dragon Dominator Blood Pill. Although only semi-finished, the medicinal effect would surely ensure Deng Yongshi’s future promotion to the Human Emperor realm without suspense.

Ling Feng continued guiding Deng Yongshi in her cultivation until sunset before bidding farewell to the Old General Deng and returning to his residence.

According to the plan, Wu Tributor and Sun Tributor should have returned with the medicinal herbs as well.

Sure enough, no sooner had Ling Feng returned home than the two approached happily to report the good news. Though the Divine Country Imperial Doctors in the Imperial Medical Hall were all gritting their teeth, they had to comply with Sky White Monarch’s direct order and reluctantly sent out this batch of herbs worth a hundred thousand elemental crystals.

”Well done.”

Ling Feng nodded; among this batch of herbs, aside from some meant for Gong Cheng’s healing, there was a portion for refining elixirs from the Waste Elixir battlefields that filled in missing ingredients in the recipes Ling Feng had been researching.

These materials were absent from Yan Cangtian’s Spiritual Medicine Garden, but the royal inventory was certainly abundant.

And Ling Feng wasn’t disappointed with the outcome.

Soon, Ling Feng prepared medicinal baths and decoctions for Gong Cheng. Starting tonight, he would administer acupuncture during the day and use these precious Spiritual Medicines as aids during the night.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

Gong Cheng and Goo Tengfeng had completely recovered, while Ling Feng spent the month diligently cultivating various cultivation techniques, Shocking Eye Tribulation, Soul Splitting Technique, Speech Spirit Spell, and so on...

Unfortunately, although the progress of various cultivation techniques was decent, Ling Feng was completely baffled by the condensation of the Pattern Radiance.

He sought advice from Yan Cangtian, but the results were still minimal.

Until one day, the young miss of the Cangqiong Sect, Yue Yunlan, accompanied by her inseparable maid Qiaoqiao, came to visit him.
