“That’s the core disciple of the First-Class Immortal Door of Tianchi, a second-grade spiritual root, I didn’t expect him to come as well”

“It seems that the Tianchi Sect is likely trying to curry favor with the Ji Family”

Some cultivators have noticed something.

After this Ji Family descendant appeared, the Ji Family’s marriage selection seems to have concluded.

Qin Changqing found this interesting.

At this time, the Ji Family Combined flew out again.

“Everyone, this year marks the 200,000th year since our ancestor ascended, so this year our Ji Family will have a special marriage selection!”

The words of Ji Family Combined aroused the cultivators’ interest once again.

Another special marriage selection?

“Wow!”

At this moment, some cultivators exclaimed. Qin Changqing looked up and saw a woman with an outstanding appearance and beauty in the sky.

In the system’s evaluation, she would probably score 9.9 points.

Not only was her appearance outstanding, but her temperament was also extraordinary, making people admire her at first sight.

“It’s Ji Ziling! She has a second-class water spirit root and is said to have a special physique. She is the most beautiful woman of the Taixu Realm in recent millennia! Can’t believe the Ji family is using her to recruit”

Someone exclaimed.

Others couldn’t quite believe it.

A second-class water spirit root!

No wonder these cultivators had such a strong reaction, the Ji family has quite the big show this time.

A second-class water spirit root, the cultivation speed is not lower than that of a first-grade spiritual root!

“Everyone, this special marriage selection will be for Ziling. However, it will not be today but three months later. As long as the Xuanxian Ball left by our ancestor chooses, that person will become the Ji family’s first son-in-law and receive treatment comparable to a Holy Land Saint Child!”

Ji family combined spoke again.

His words stirred the cultivators present again.

“Brilliant.”

Qin Changqing murmured.

This move by the Ji family was indeed brilliant.

Their goal was probably the first-grade spiritual root geniuses.

To offer them the treatment of a Holy Land Saint Child directly.

“So, the Ji family hasn’t produced any, or very few, first-grade spiritual root descendants in recent years?”

Qin Changqing speculated.

From Qin Changqing’s point of view, the Ji family might be in a dilemma where there are no successors and there are not many outstanding geniuses among the younger generation.

The Immortal Ancestor had not responded for tens of thousands of years.

And still no response this time.

The Ji family might be getting anxious.

Producing a first-grade spiritual root is not easy.

That also helps explain why Ancestor Dongfang was so indulgent towards that woman – she gave birth to a child with an Innate Taoist Body.

However, the Dongfang family seemed a bit strange, first producing an Immortal Spirit Root and then a first-grade spiritual root with Innate Taoist Body.

The output rate of exceptional descendants was simply unbelievable.

Was this the blessing of the heavens?

Or just plain luck?

Anyway, the Ji family was probably facing an awkward situation where there might be no successors, and that’s why they put forth a second-class water spirit root descendant who also happened to be the first beautiful woman in the Taixu Realm.

Once chosen, they would be offered the treatment of a Saint Child.

The lure was immense.

In some Holy Lands, even a first-grade spiritual root might not be able to become a Saint Child.

Hence, there will undoubtedly be some first-grade spiritual root geniuses who will be tempted.

Not only the treatment but also an outstandingly beautiful woman.

Cultivators are not immune to worldly desires, even hardworking cultivators may be moved when encountering truly exceptional female cultivators.

So, in Qin Changqing’s opinion, the Ji family’s move was extremely brilliant.

Of course.

Behind the brilliance, there might also be helplessness.

As for Qin Changqing, who had the Golden Finger, he did not need to worry about the issues faced by the Ji family and did not need such methods.

“However, today Ziling will try to throw the embroidery ball once to see if there is a destined lover for her among those present”

The voice of the Ji Family Combined was still ringing.

Today, they were going to try to throw the embroidery ball!

Qin Changqing glanced at Ji Ziling, whose face was expressionless, and guessed that she might not be too willing to do this.

But for the sake of the family, she chose to compromise.

She took the embroidery ball, threw it high into the sky.

Everyone in the square looked up.

Some cultivators were even mumbling “Me, me, me”.

None of the cultivators unleashed any techniques.

The embroidery ball flew in the sky, and it seemed to the eyes of the cultivators that it had not found the right person and was about to fly back into Ji Ziling’s hand.

Ji Ziling visibly relaxed.

However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.

The embroidery ball suddenly changed direction and flew towards someone.

“Huh?”

This scene attracted everyone’s attention. They looked at the embroidery ball which had stopped outside the square above a man’s head.

“Why did the embroidery ball run out like that? Isn’t that against the rules?”

Qin Changqing glanced at the embroidery ball above his head and was somewhat speechless.

He hadn’t even stepped onto the square, and the embroidery ball had come to him.

The Master of Guiyuan Sect beside him was also taken aback by this scene.

At this moment, everyone’s gaze had fallen on Qin Changqing.

“How did the embroidery ball run out?”

“I don’t know, this has never happened before.”

“Who is that person?”

“I don’t know.”

There were whispers in the square.

Qin Changqing had become the center of attention among the cultivators present.

Although many of the cultivators here had heard of Qin Changqing’s deeds and knew that the Canglan Realm had produced a reincarnated immortal, not everyone knew Qin Changqing’s name.

That’s normal.

The world doesn’t revolve around a single person, especially in such a vast world of cultivation.

The Taixu Realm is too far from the Canglan Realm, and ordinary cultivators have limited access to information. Some information is lost or changed in transmission.

There were only a few people who had seen Qin Changqing.

Moreover, Qin Changqing had deliberately changed his appearance using techniques to avoid detection.

Of course, if someone had a deep impression of him, they would recognize Qin Changqing upon seeing him.

However, that was unlikely here.

The Ji family had not sent anyone to make contact with Qin Changqing.

Even a family that had produced immortals and was on par with Holy Lands, the Ji family wouldn’t be so confident in recruiting a reincarnated immortal into their family.

Family forces inherently face some limitations.

It’s fine when the family is thriving.

Now, as the Ji family seems to have lost the protection of the heavens and doesn’t have many outstanding descendants, they have to resort to recruiting son-in-laws to boost their family’s strength.

The cultivators who are recruited will likely have their descendants bear the Ji surname as well.

Only this way can the Ji family’s status be preserved.

However, using a second-class strange spirit root and a special physique, as well as the most beautiful woman, to recruit this time, Qin Changqing could already see the underlying weakness of the Ji family.

This weakness may not be evident now, but once the older generation fails to become immortals and fall into deep slumber or die, the Ji family will face decline.
