I Have A Qi Fortune Altar.
Chapter 463 - 463 370 Let Go and Kill (Must See Dont Miss)

Chapter 463: Chapter 370 Let Go and Kill (Must See, Don’t Miss) Chapter 463: Chapter 370 Let Go and Kill (Must See, Don’t Miss) This kind of thing is not uncommon for aristocratic families like theirs.

Sometimes, when they encounter a Loose Cultivator Martial Artist with excellent talents in Jianghu, they will form a marriage alliance with them… Well, most are considered to marry into the family.

Of course, Chen Yuan’s case is definitely similar to a marital alliance.

The cohesion of aristocratic families is strong, but at the same time their weakness is significant, which is the scarcity of new blood. Without a large population base, they can’t produce too many geniuses.

So, some have thought of this tactic.

It serves to draw able-bodied experts into the family.

Chen Yuan gazed at Shangguan Yu and said indifferently,

“The Shangguan Clan is vast and prosperous. Chen is accustomed to a carefree life; let us not bring up this matter again in the future.”

Not to mention that he now had a stronger backing and support than the Shangguan Family, even if he had not, he never thought of using such means to add to his strength.

It’s unnecessary.

With his pace of growth, in just over a year’s time, he had progressed from the initial stages of Martial Arts to the Heavenly Palace Level of the Reach Profound Realm. Given another year, what then?

Therefore, he truly didn’t value the strength that came with such alliances.

If he wanted, he could have already joined one of the top ten Immortal Sects, the Seven Killings Hall.

But he refused.

Forming a marital alliance with the Shangguan Clan meant indeed having an ally, but it involved too many entanglements. He wasn’t willing to stand forever on the same front as a so-called scion of an aristocratic family.

This did not align with his interests.

The Shangguan Clan had its roots deep within the court, and if he formed an alliance with them, he would inevitably be branded as such. These would not suit his future growth, and it would also bring about restraints.

It can only be said that Shangguan Yu might have good intentions, but Chen had to respectfully decline.

Although Chen Yuan is currently just a Green Envoy for the State, he sets his sights high and does not wish to join any factions in the short term, perhaps only getting somewhat closer to the Zhang faction.

His foundations lay within himself, within Jiang He, within the Taoist Divine Palace.

This, he saw very clearly.

Moreover, he hadn’t yet reached the end of his rope.

A mere Grandmaster? If they come, they will be slain!

“This…” Shangguan Yu opened his mouth, hearing Chen Yuan’s adamant rejection, ultimately remained silent and no longer persuaded him, realizing that Chen truly did not wish to form an alliance with the Shangguan family.

Why?

Jiang He?

A hint of confusion flashed through Shangguan Yu’s mind.

In his view, such an alliance was a win-win situation, but to Chen, it seemed like he did not want any deep ties.

Working with the Shangguan family was fine, but deep ties were out of the question.

“Alright then, Brother Chen, you must be careful in your actions these days,” Shangguan Yu warned with utmost seriousness.

Only those close to the Core Realm truly understand how terrifying a Grandmaster can be. There’s more than one Grandmaster in the Shangguan Family, and he was very well aware of their power.

Chen Yuan’s strength was indeed formidable, since he was the one who had slain Yun Han.

But…

Compared to the few devils in the top three of the Hidden Dragon List, he was certainly still lacking.

Only upon breaking through to the Reach Profound Peak would he be qualified to fight against a Dan Realm Master, for Zuo Chengzong, Wei Wuya and the other three were exactly at that level.

These three were the real devils, the kind that might not emerge once in a hundred years. Now, all gathered at this edition of the Ascension Immortal Battle, it was indeed a grand event.

“Rest assured, Brother Shangguan.”

Chen Yuan smiled, appreciating the concern shown by the other. He felt a certain degree of recognition for this ‘wretched’ kind of friend.

This was no simple feat.

In this world, the friends that he recognized amounted to only two – Zhang Xuan and Shangguan Yu.

As for Jiang He, that was a different story; he was a major support!

The two then chatted idly about other matters.

In the midst of the conversation, Shangguan Yu spontaneously brought up the appearance of his sister Shangguan Hong, claiming that although she might not compare with Yu Qingyan, she was definitely a top-tier beauty.

Chen Yuan gave a faint smile, saying he had not seen Yu Qingyan, but his sister’s beauty was indeed among the top three he had seen.

The first was naturally Su Ziyue, the second Lady Xu, and the third was this Shangguan Hong.

As for the much-talked-about Yu Qingyan, he had indeed only heard of her and never seen her.

But he knew quite a bit about her, as she was ranked ninth on the Hidden Dragon List, currently the head disciple of the Goddess Palace and a student of Yang Transformation True Master.

Yet her public appearances were extremely rare, and the Jianghu merely had rumors about her.

Shangguan Yu laughed heartily without saying much more.

He was quite confident in his sister’s beauty; otherwise, he would not have thought of bringing up a marriage alliance with Chen Yuan, only to be rejected. Indeed, he was indifferent towards women.

Well…

That’s not quite right, Chen Yuan’s preferences are different from ordinary people.

Then Chen Yuan added that with Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Hong being so good-looking, he presumed they must take after their mother, wondering who the extraordinary lady from Jianghu might be?

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yu, who had been quite pleased at first, suddenly lost his composure.

Considering Chen Yuan’s unusual tendencies, this man was indeed out of the ordinary.

Hence, he hastily shifted the conversation away from Shangguan Hong, not wishing to end up like Ouyang Zhi.

Seeing this, a hint of amusement flashed in Chen Yuan’s eyes; he had intentionally brought it up just to get Shangguan Yu to abandon the idea, as he truly had no interest in forming any marriage alliance.

The topic was then redirected by Shangguan Yu to the Goddess Palace.

Chen Yuan also learned some little-known secrets.

For instance, the Goddess Palace was one of the weaker ones among the top ten Immortal Sects, already showing signs of decline, relying entirely on the influence of its powerful predecessors.

Indeed, for two hundred years, there had been no stronger presence than Yang Transformation.

Furthermore, the Goddess Palace has historically only accepted female disciples, never a man. It was said that the founder of the palace once suffered a heartache.
