Longevity Reward Redemption: The Immortal Clan Starts with Farmers

135: What an outlandish way to find a son-in-law!“Lady, you are currently suffering from Magic Power backlash; it is better not to act, lest you damage your own Origin Qi!”

Chen Chuanjie saw the girl collapse and immediately tried to persuade her. The girl lay on the bed, her beautiful eyes still sharp as knives, staring coldly at him.

“I know that in this conflict, I failed to control my pet. I apologize to you. Now that my Meridians are completely shattered and there is no longer any possibility of progress in my cultivation, I hope you can let go of your anger...”

Chen Chuanjie said with a dejected expression. For a high-spirited youth, having his future completely destroyed was undoubtedly a form of immense torture.

“Hmph, impossible. I will definitely kill you!”

The girl said with a cold face, showing no sympathy for Chen Chuanjie, only stubborn killing intent.

This infuriated Chen Chuanwu, who was watching from the side. His younger brother’s future was already ruined, yet this woman continued to be relentless—truly pushing her luck. He couldn’t help but bark in a low voice:

“Demonic Girl, my brother’s conflict with you was but a minor matter. Now that he has no hope of cultivation, you still want his life? You truly have a wicked heart. Do you know that if my brother hadn’t stopped me, I would have struck you dead right here!”

Facing Chen Chuanwu’s fierce aura, the girl remained unfazed. She stiffened her neck and, with an attitude of ’do as you please,’ stubbornly said:

“Kill me if you want! If I don’t die, I will definitely kill your brother!”

“You really think I don’t dare to kill you?!”

Chuanwu’s temper flared instantly. He raised his palm and struck toward the Demonic Girl’s head. Seeing this, Chen Chuanjie quickly shielded the woman behind him.

“Big brother, you mustn’t!!!”

Seeing Chen Chuanjie blocking him, Chen Chuanwu quickly retracted his Move and shouted angrily at Chen Chuanjie:

“She’s dead set on killing you, and you’re still protecting her?”

Chen Chuanjie glanced at the woman, then explained to Chen Chuanwu:

“Big brother, I still have some things to ask her!”

Chen Chuanwu snorted coldly and turned his head away, no longer looking at the Demonic Girl. Chuanjie walked to her side, twitched the corner of his mouth, and asked with a smile:

“I feel that this was just a small matter of your pet being bullied; it’s not worth us facing off in life and death. I, Chen Chuanjie, have lived an upright life. Can you let me die with understanding? What kind of grudge do we actually have that must end in life or death?”

The woman pursed her thin lips, not wanting to speak, but seeing Chuanjie’s sincere and yearning eyes, she finally blinked and revealed the reason.

“I am the Saintess of the Fire Worshipping Cult, serving the Deity for life. I can only show myself wearing a Veil. If someone removes my Veil and I cannot kill him, I can only marry him!”

Once these words were spoken, not only Chen Chuanjie but everyone present was stunned!

This Fire Worshipping Cult is too much of a cult! What kind of bizarre rule is this?

“Ahem, is there no third option?”

Chuanjie asked with a look of shock, and the woman said very calmly:

“No!”

In an instant, the scene fell into a dead silence. No one knew what to say. At this time, Chen Changsheng stepped forward and looked at the Demonic Girl with a smile, saying:

“Lady, didn’t you already have a fight with Chuanjie before? You didn’t kill him. According to the rules, you should just marry him. We Chen Family members have no objections!”

As soon as Chen Changsheng spoke, Chuanjie’s face immediately turned crimson. He turned back to glare at Chen Changsheng and murmured:

“Father, marriage... how can it be handled so flippantly?”

Chen Changsheng said with a smile, “Son, this is also to find a suitable way for both of you. We don’t agree to her killing you, and you don’t want to kill her. You might as well just get married!”

Chen Chuanjie was speechless, while the Demonic Girl lying on the bed refused very firmly.

“It’s impossible for me to marry him! To be my husband, one must complete three things; otherwise, I won’t agree even if I die!”

Chen Changsheng smiled. If there were conditions, there was room for negotiation. So he asked the woman in a kind tone:

“Which three things? Tell us, maybe we can complete them.”

The woman sneered, her gaze sweeping over everyone, and said in a cold voice:

“The first thing is to defeat me. Your son was nothing more than a defeated opponent to me. The first thing is already impossible!”

Hearing the girl’s words, Chen Changsheng couldn’t help but frown. Chen Chuanwen, however, spoke up:

“My brother is not a defeated opponent; the one who lost was you. Both of you were injured and fell unconscious, but the Essence Spirit under my brother’s command subdued your pet. At that time, if he wanted to kill you, it would have been a piece of cake!”

The Demonic Girl frowned upon hearing this, wanting to refute it, but she realized that was indeed the case. However, she was certainly not convinced in her heart, so she snorted and said:

“What does relying on a pet count for? I am not convinced. If you are also unconvinced, let’s compete again!”

As the Demonic Girl’s voice fell, Chen Chuanjie’s expression darkened. He gently shook his head and gave a difficult smile:

“There’s no need to compete again. My Meridians are completely shattered, and my strength is barely a tenth of what it was. If we compete again, I am absolutely no match for you. I simply admit defeat!”

Chen Chuanjie’s words were originally meant to be self-pitying, but they sounded unpleasant to the Demonic Girl’s ears. Her eyebrows arched in anger, and she snorted:

“You make it sound as if I’m taking a huge advantage of you. Even if you were in perfect health, you wouldn’t be my match. I am also a child of the Jianghu, so naturally I won’t take advantage of someone in peril. I have a way to treat your shattered Meridians!”

Hearing the Demonic Girl say this, Chen Changsheng immediately became excited. The others also showed great changes in expression. Chen Changsheng walked to her side and asked hurriedly:

“Is this true? Lady, you should know that for people of the Jianghu, a promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold!”

The Demonic Girl raised an eyebrow, and her bright, watery eyes blinked.

“Of course it’s true, but you need to find an Alchemist!”

Chen Changsheng immediately stood before everyone, laughed, and followed up on the girl’s words:

“I am humble, but I do indeed possess some skill in the art of Alchemy!”

Hearing this, the girl looked Chen Changsheng up and down with a surprised gaze. One must know that an Alchemist is even more precious than a Genius Cultivator.

Training a Genius doesn’t require many resources, but training an Alchemist requires a vast amount of resources. It’s not something a small household can afford!

The Demonic Girl hadn’t expected that such a small Family would actually produce an Alchemist. This Chen Family was truly not simple.

“Here. The moonlight vein-mending pill recorded inside can nourish the Meridians and reshape the network. It’s enough to treat his shattered Meridians!”

The Demonic Girl pulled a small booklet from her robes and threw it to Chen Changsheng. Chen Changsheng caught it and flipped it open at the same time, seeing that there were actually three Pill Formulas inside.

For an Alchemist, every Pill Formula is a treasure that can bring priceless benefits. This girl had thrown them over without even asking—truly generous!

“Thank you, Lady. Once I have treated my son’s condition, I will definitely have him compete with you again!”

Chen Changsheng bowed his head to the Demonic Girl in thanks. She just wrinkled her nose and looked at Chen Chuanjie with eyes like knives:

“Don’t say I took advantage of you. After you recover, the two of us will compete again—not only to determine who is superior but also to decide life and death!”
