Shen Xuan and the White Lotus Immortal had just left.

In the VIP box.

Everyone couldn't hold back any longer and began to gossip fervently!

"Tsk, Patriarch Zhou, your Beast Taming Zhou Family really has some skills! If not for Shen Xuan selling the Red Flame Flood Dragon, how long were you planning to keep it from us?"

"Patriarch Zhou, we agreed to make big decisions together, but you secretly sent the White Lotus Immortal to seduce Talisman Master Shen?"

"If you ask me, Patriarch Zhou, you should give up hope. Talisman Master Shen is a high-ranking cultivator from a great sect and will eventually return to the Cyan Cloud Sect. Don't end up losing both the lady and the army, behaving like a petty person!"

"Talisman Master Shen made it clear that he is supporting the Flying Cloud Su Family on his master's orders. Why is your Zhou Family getting involved?"

The Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Zhao and Wu families attacked Patriarch Zhou with a barrage of criticism.

However, beneath their dissatisfaction, there was also a strong sense of envy in their words.

They were all old foxes who had lived for several centuries.

None of them were without a bit of scheming and cunning.

This time, with the White Lotus Immortal connecting with Talisman Master Shen, the Zhou Family had really benefited!

Just now, the White Lotus Immortal received fifteen thousand Spirit Stones.

She also sold most of the materials from the Red Flame Flood Dragon to the Zhou Family at a fair price.

To be able to enter the depths of the Canglang River at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment and slay the Red Flame Flood Dragon, it shows Shen Xuan's strength is unfathomable!

At least in the depths of the river, he's no less than the three Foundation Establishment late-stage ancestors.

The key point is, Shen Xuan has only been at the Foundation Establishment stage for about two or three years.

He's still at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment!

Moreover, he is genuinely a Tier Two Talisman Master.

He has already developed unique Thunder and Poison Talismans.

In the future, to what extent Shen Xuan will grow, none of them dared to predict.

But it's certain that a mere Cyan Yang Prefecture wouldn't be able to contain him.

"Luckily, he's only supporting Flying Cloud Su Family for thirty years, as per his master's orders!"

The Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Zhao, Zhou, and Wu families sighed silently in their hearts.

They all turned their gaze toward Su Huaicheng.

Someone suddenly chuckled lightly.

Shaking his head, his eyes filled with contempt.

"I have no idea what the Su Family is thinking! With such talent, they actually let him idle!"

"The fall of the Su Family to this point has its reasons!"

Hearing these words, Su Huaicheng's old face turned crimson.

He wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

He was aware of some of the inside information.

The Patriarch didn't lack effort.

It's just that the originally chosen Su Jiayuan, whose background, appearance, aptitude, and temperament were all top-notch within the clan, didn't find Shen Xuan appealing.

While a side family girl working miscellaneous jobs in the Clan Affairs Hall entered the Rain Listening Pavilion as a concubine.

At this moment, his heart was confused.

He originally thought Shen Xuan was just a talisman Dao genius.

After inheriting the Su Family Secret Technique on Thunder Talismans, a partnership between them would open a continuous wealth stream for the Su Family.

He never expected.

Shen Xuan's combat power was so terrifying!

As things stand, there was no other option but to report the situation up for the Patriarch to decide!

Beside him, Zhuang Ping looked at Shen Xuan's departing figure with an unsettled expression on his face.

Not sure what he was thinking.

...

The Zhou Patriarch summoned a Foundation Establishment clan member.

"Go back and tell the steward to return the betrothal gifts from the Qian Family!"

The Qian Family is a top Foundation Establishment Clan from the neighboring Celestial City Mansion.

Their power is comparable to the Zhou Family.

Qian Family's third young master claimed to have fallen for the White Lotus Immortal after meeting her once somewhere.

He declared that he would marry no one else but the White Lotus Immortal.

However, the White Lotus Immortal never even glanced at Qian San.

Qian San wasn't discouraged.

With full support from the Qian Family, he recently achieved Foundation Establishment.

Just after consolidating his realm, he once again proposed to the Zhou Family.

The betrothal gifts were temporarily placed with the steward.

The Zhou Patriarch had yet to discuss this matter with the White Lotus Immortal.

As it seems now, there's no need.

He understood his daughter's character.

No matter how good the family background, without strength, White Lotus Immortal wouldn't be interested.

"Shouldn't we discuss with White Lotus? The Qian Family in Celestial City has a good foundation."

"No need!"

The Zhou Patriarch waved his hand dismissively.

...

Yellow Maple Forest, Murong Clan Territory.

In a small bamboo house.

Two extraordinarily beautiful young girls knelt beside Murong Jun, massaging his back.

Looking at the Intelligence Jade Scroll in his hand, Murong Jun was slightly taken aback.

"Interesting!"

At the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, he ventured deep into the Canglang River, managing to kill the Red Flame Flood Dragon snake that even three Foundation Establishment ancestors couldn't handle.

"Is he trying to provoke me?"

Murong Jun fell into contemplation.

At that time, they had met briefly.

Under the guise of purchasing a Thunder Talisman, he secretly hid a Blood Spirit Tracking Secret Technique among the Spirit Stones.

In the end.

After one incense stick's worth of time, the Blood Spirit disappeared.

Without external interference, the Blood Spirit Tracking could last for several years.

Murong Jun didn't think it was a coincidence.

"This person truly cannot be underestimated, managing to see through my disguise."

Murong Jun was confident that his Disguise Secret Technique had reached perfection.

In theory, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator shouldn't see through it.

But somewhere along the way, there was a flaw, making Shen Xuan suspicious.

"Oh well. Time is long, I'll have to see exactly what kind of skills you have, Shen Xuan, to stop me from seizing the Cyan Yang Prefecture!"

...

Su Clan Territory, Patriarch's Mansion.

After listening to Su Huaicheng's report, the Su Patriarch's face bore a deep sigh.

He had investigated Shen Xuan's intelligence.

He clearly remembered, from what the Cyan Cloud Sect reported, Shen Xuan was just a Loose Cultivator, who, with the help of an old friendship with Qin Yuehan, was able to attain his current status.

Apparently, his talisman making was the only skill worth noting, and everything else was ordinary.

Thus, the choice of Su Jiayuan, who had top-notch family background, appearance, aptitude, and temperament, looked down on Shen Xuan.

While a collateral girl working in the Clan Affairs Hall moved into the Rain Listening Pavilion as a concubine in his place.

Listening to Su Huaicheng's words, the Patriarch's face turned red with old age and regret.

He almost wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

The Patriarch hadn't stopped trying.

Su Xue'Er, whom they had chosen previously, had everything—family background, looks, kind heart, and noble temperament—but still looked down on Shen Xuan.

And now, the White Lotus Immortal has attached herself to him, while Su Xue'Er had no way to match her in background, aptitude, or Realm.

"Patriarch, what I mean is, you shouldn't let the White Lotus near our Clan Territory, then she can't enter the Rain Listening Pavilion!"

"Foolishness!"

The Su Patriarch shot a glare at Zhou Huaicheng.

"If we upset Shen Xuan, he can leave the Su Clan Territory anytime."

"I haven't sunk to that level yet."

"Shen Xuan is supporting the Flying Cloud Su Family for thirty years just to follow Master Gu Feng's orders. It's not an official Sect mission, he can withdraw at any time!"

Right now, working well with Talisman Master Shen is our priority." The Su Patriarch sighed deeply.

"Let's not do anything foolish. Focus on producing the Thunder Talismans, and as for Talisman Master Shen..."

"Let him be! As long as he continues to produce the Thunder Talismans, we will pretend not to see anything else!"

At this moment, Su Xue'Er is resting her pretty face on her hand, with her willow-like eyebrows slightly furrowed, unable to hide her annoyance.

"It's been so long, after all this time, he's still not out!"

She spat in disgust, "Hmph, White Lotus Immortal has the nerve to act so shamelessly, that cheap hag!"

"She's already ancient, how shameless can she be, to throw herself at him like that!"

She grumbled to herself.

Her eyes occasionally glanced towards Shen Xuan's bedroom.

Which was shielded by an Array.

Clearly, at this moment, inside there was an intense, passionate battle going on!
