396 Tell Us Everything You Know
When the attendant saw the spirit stones, he smiled and said, “Dear customer, if you have any questions, I will tell you everything I know.”
“Not bad. I’m just curious about who the Young Miss of the Shangguan family is,” Dong Xi said with satisfaction. “Why are you still playing such tricks in the mortal world in the cultivation world?”
The attendant was immediately overjoyed. He could earn so many spirit stones with something that everyone knew. It was a bloody profit!
“This isn’t a secret. Everyone in the Void Sea knows about it,” said the attendant.
It turned out that the Shangguan family’s ancestor was at the late stage of the clone realm, but his wife was a mortal. When he gave birth to his daughter, she died because of a difficult labor process.
Unfortunately, the daughter he left behind was also a mortal and did not have spirit root.
The Shangguan family’s Patriarch did not want to see the younger generation passing away earlier than the older generation, so he looked around for some treasures to extend his daughter’s life.
The Young Miss of Shangguan should be in her forties now, but she still looked like an 18-year-old girl.
There were also people who came to propose marriage, but they were all rejected by the Shangguan family.
The reason was that the Shangguan Patriarch wanted to find a live-in son-in-law for his daughter, so he ended up doing this in the mortal world.
In the cultivation world, there was a lot to be said about throwing embroidered balls. Everyone had cultivation. In the end, what was snatched was not only luck, but also cultivation. It was not bad for such a person to be the son-in-law of the Shangguan family.
As for those who were fighting to become live-in son-in-law, their thoughts were very simple.
Miss Shangguan was a mortal. Even if she could rely on treasures to extend her life, she would only live for more than a hundred years at most.
When Miss Shangguan died, Shangguan Patriarch could only nurture this son-in-law.
After all, this was his father-in-law at the Soul Formation stage who could extend the lives of mortals. If he inherited the mantle, he would definitely have great achievements in the future.
When the attendant said this, his eyes lit up. The attendant said, “I’m not afraid that you’ll laugh at me. When we go out later, I also want to try my luck.”
Although he knew that his cultivation was not enough, but…What if he was lucky?
If the attendant was lucky enough to get the embroidered ball, every day would be a good day.
Tie Zhu was a little confused when he heard the attendant’s words. Tie Zhu said, “It’s understandable that Shangguan Patriarch doesn’t look at cultivation when choosing a son-in-law. But why doesn’t he look at age?”
“Shangguan Patriarch said that the one who gets the embroidered ball is chosen by the heavens for Miss Shangguan,” said the attendant. “No matter what cultivation level or age, the Shangguan family will recognize it.”
The attendant was getting more and more excited, as if he could really catch the embroidered ball.
When Tie Zhu heard this, he looked at Dong Xi and Rui Ming. “Junior Brother, Junior Sister, I’ll go take a look too. Are you guys coming?”
Dong Xi, “?”
Dong Xi was silent. What was wrong with this Senior Brother Tie Zhu?
“Senior Brother, you also want to snatch the embroidered ball?” asked Dong Xi.
“There’s no restriction anyway. It’s fine to try.” Tie Zhu nodded.
Dong Xi bit her lip and looked helpless. Tie Zhu finally reacted. Tie Zhu said, “Junior Sister, we… do we have to do anything today?”
“It’s nothing. You can go,” said Dong Xi helplessly.
Dong Xi had yet to find any clues about the Ice of Extreme Frost. She would wait for more information.
After Tie Zhu left, Dong Xi wanted to ask Rui Ming to rest in his room while she went out for a walk.
Dong Xi had just stood up when Rui Ming also stood up.
“Senior Brother, didn’t I tell you to rest here?” Dong Xi frowned.
“I don’t trust you,” said Rui Ming.
Dong Xi tried to persuade him, but Rui Ming refused. In the end, the two of them went out together.
Dong Xi wanted to find someone to inquire about the news, but there was no one along the way.
Dong Xi and Rui Ming looked at each other. Dong Xi said helplessly, “Hmm… Everyone went to snatch the embroidered ball.”
Rui Ming’s expression was a bit complicated. Rui Ming said, “Junior Sister, what should we do?”
“Let’s go and take a look,” said Dong Xi after thinking for a moment.
There were people in front of the Shangguan family’s door. Dong Xi searched for a long time in the crowd, but she could not find Senior Brother Tie Zhu.
Dong Xi had never seen such a scene in two lifetimes. Dong Xi looked at the Shangguan family with interest. The second floor was surrounded by a circle of incandescent stones.
There was a red lantern on each of the guardrails at a certain distance. It was very festive.
A group of maids stood on both sides with flowers in their hands.
The entire Shangguan Residence was covered with a blue protective shield, which made everything in the residence seem like a mirage.
“No wonder so many people came to join in the fun. If I could be the son-in-law of the Shangguan family, I would have worked for a few hundred years less!” Dong Xi sighed.
As soon as she finished speaking, a pleasant sound of a harp sounded, followed by a melodious flute sound. Accompanied by the sound of a pipa, the momentum became louder and louder.
