Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife

Chapter 38


Spring Garden

Outside the market.

He stepped onto the main road again. Shen Ping sighed with emotion. He originally thought that he would not come here again after living in Yunhe Alley. He did not expect that he would come again in less than two years.

...

“It’s a good thing we’re not moving.” He laughed at himself, then sniffed the scent of rouge and powder and came to the door of a shop in Spring Garden. He crossed the threshold. Several gazes swept over. Seeing that he was a mid-stage Qi Refinement cultivator, they quickly retracted their weapons. “There’s quite a crowd.”

Shen Ping looked up and observed from the corner of his eye. He realized that there were actually three to four cultivators waiting.

It seemed that Matchmaker Ceng’s business was quite good. He waited for a moment.

Matchmaker Ceng, who was covered in the smell of rouge, sent out a cultivator. “Fellow Daoists, don’t worry. There will definitely be news in at least five days or at least three days. Just go back and wait… Oh, Fellow Daoist Shen, Talisman Master Shen, what brings you here today?”

Matchmaker Ceng was halfway through her sentence when she saw Shen Ping. Her eyes lit up and she hurriedly sashayed to Shen Ping. “Ever since you moved to Yunhe Alley, I was wondering if I should go over and arrange another marriage for you. Later on, I thought about it. Your status is different now. If I offended you, I’ll regret it to death. So, I can only wait for you every day and night. I didn’t expect you to really come. Please come in.”

The expressions of the other cultivators who were waiting changed when they heard Yunhe Alley. That place was not a place that ordinary cultivators could live in. Just the high fee of 15 mid-grade spirit stones per year was enough to deter many cultivators.

“A Talisman Master. Either a high-grade one or is related to a high-grade one.” These cultivators looked at Shen Ping with fervent gazes. If they could make some connections, they might benefit greatly. But before they could do anything, Shen Ping followed Matchmaker Ceng to the inner room.

It was very difficult to hear what was going on inside as there was a soundproof array. He was not in a hurry to talk about it. Matchmaker Ceng first poured a cup of spiritual tea for Shen Ping.

When they sat down to drink tea, Matchmaker Ceng said enthusiastically, “Talisman Master Shen must be here to take in another concubine. You are now in the middle stage of Qi Refinement Realm and a mid-grade Talisman Master. You even live in Yunhe Alley. With this condition, who knows how many beautiful female cultivators will fight over it. So what is your request this time?”

Shen Ping muttered, “In terms of personality…”

“I know.” Matchmaker Ceng immediately gave him a reassuring look.

A black line appeared on Shen Ping’s forehead. He continued expressionlessly, “She has to be dignified, polite, and sensible. She can be at the third level of Qi Refinement or below. Her appearance and figure can be like my wife and concubine. It’s best if she’s alone. Lastly, don’t be too young!”

Matchmaker Ceng smiled brightly. “Understood.” Then, she said, “Other than these, does Talisman Master Shen have any other special preferences?”

Shen Ping rolled his eyes in his heart and thought to himself,

“I can’t let you know if I have any fetishes. Wouldn’t I be controlled to death in the future?”

Seeing that Shen Ping did not say anything, Matchmaker Ceng said in a low voice, “It’s like this. Recently, there have been a few special female cultivators in my Spring Garden. They also want to find a reliable partner to spend the rest of their lives with.”

Shen Ping subconsciously asked, “What’s special about that?”

Matchmaker Ceng transmitted a few words.

“No need!” Shen Ping almost spat out a mouthful of tea and hurriedly rejected her with a straight face.

Matchmaker Ceng didn’t give up. “Talisman Master Shen, this is very rare. If you miss it, I’m afraid it will be difficult to find another one in the future.”

Shen Ping still shook his head. What a joke. He was human! His orientation was very positive.

“Sigh…” Matchmaker Ceng sighed. She would not be able to earn this considerable amount of spirit stones.

However, at this moment, Shen Ping hesitated and said, “Fellow Daoist Ceng, do you have a female cultivator with a special physique or bloodline who wants to seek a Dao companion?” Matchmaker Ceng was silent this time. Shen Ping was puzzled, but he quickly reacted and said indifferently, “Fellow Daoist Ceng, don’t tell me you think I can’t take out spirit stones?” He directly slapped out a Spirit Protection Talisman.

Be it Wang Yun or Bai Yuying, their physiques were very ordinary. It was rare for cultivators to have special bloodlines or physiques. He really wanted to see what kind of benefits he would gain from dual cultivating with such a dao companion.

Matchmaker Ceng’s expression remained unchanged.

Shen Ping frowned and secretly added another talisman. Seeing that Matchmaker Ceng was unmoved, he simply took back the two Spirit ProtectionTalismans and stood up. He had just walked to the door of the house.

“Wait.” Matchmaker Ceng hurriedly stopped him. “Talisman Master Shen, you should know that cultivators with bloodlines or special physiques are very rare. Moreover, they often have deep connections behind them. If you accidentally provoke the descendants of some old monster’s bloodline, the consequences will be unimaginable. My Spring Garden can’t bear the consequences.”

Shen Ping was stunned.

That’s true.

He took it for granted. It was indeed not easy to get involved with such cultivators. It was mainly because Matchmaker Ceng had special cultivators before. For a moment, he thought about bloodline and physique.

Fortunately, Matchmaker Ceng had reminded him. Otherwise, if he had such thoughts in the future, it was very likely that he would have planted a root of trouble.

Moreover, regardless of whether it was troublesome or not, it was not something he could think about at this stage. In the future, when his cultivation level increased and he had sufficient protective methods, it would be the safest to consider this problem.

“Thank you for your reminder, Fellow Daoist Ceng.” Shen Ping bowed. Many disasters were often caused by greed at the very beginning. His thoughts just now were very dangerous.

Matchmaker Ceng smiled. “Talisman Master Shen, actually those have a bloodline. Moreover, I can guarantee that there won’t be any subsequent trouble.”

A moment later, Shen Ping left Spring Garden. A Spirit Protective Talisman was missing from his storage bag. He firmly rejected the special cultivator that Matchmaker Ceng mentioned. But later on, he still couldn’t resist the temptation.

After he repeatedly guaranteed that it was definitely in line with his orientation and that there was no trouble at all, he was tempted. However, this time, he would have to wait for a while before he could receive any news.

Cloud Mountain Parlour did not have one. Matchmaker Ceng also had to contact the other Spring Gardens. He was not worried that the other party would pocket the talisman because he had left a small trick on it. This trick was very common and could only be unlocked by casting a spell with his blood.

Before he left, Shen Ping even specially instructed her not to delay for too long. If there was really no other way, he could casually find an ordinary Dao companion and take her in first. After all, the current situation was getting more and more complicated.

“Fellow Daoist, do you want a talisman?”

“Fellow Daoist, Dharma artifacts are cheap!”

“Pills, the price of pills has been greatly reduced. If you want to buy them, hurry up!”

The vendors on both sides of the main road were very lively. Shen Ping could not help but reveal a puzzled expression. Although he had not been here for almost two years, the stall owners should have long gone back at this time.

After a while, the sky would turn dark. This was not a market. He casually found a stall and asked around. Only then did he find out that the Golden Sun Sect’s flying ship that transported mining every half a month was returning.

“Here they come!” The stall vendor enthusiastically pointed to the distant sky for Shen Ping and saw a large flying ship speeding over.
