Tis have changed, Chu Xuan imdiately took out the authority of the senior brother to stop this naive-looking disciple who did not know how to hide his emotions at all.
"Senior Brother." The other party nodded honestly in greeting.
Chu Xuan said with a stern face: "What rumors have been circulating in the sect recently? You might as well tell ."
Upon hearing this conversation, the two female disciples in the depths of the bookshelf were taken aback and quickly closed their mouths.
However, before long, they pretended to look at books again, sneakily poking their heads out to take a look.
Such "recklessness" added a tinge of unease to Chu Xuan’s heart. What on earth has been brewing?
That girl Yue’er, surely she hasn’t been spreading stories about and Senior Sister, right?
This tall and straightforward male disciple hesitated, poking his fingers, but ultimately couldn’t bring himself to lie in front of the senior brother and honestly replied:
"I heard from Junior Brother that Senior Brother is going to enter into an arranged marriage recently."
Chu Xuan was stunned on the spot, almost spitting out old blood, an arranged marriage?!
What’s this plot twist?? My master turned around and sold out?
Despite the turmoil within, Chu Xuan forcibly restrained his emotions. As the senior brother, every word and action is an example for the young disciples.
He pretended to be calm and said: "Speak clearly, how co I’ve never heard of such a thing?"
The male disciple nodded repeatedly, reciting the words of the junior brother with interest: "It is said that the counterpart in this arranged marriage is Gu Haitang, the present peerless genius of Purple Heaven Jade Mansion."
"As the leading lady of the righteous path, this Miss Gu cos from a noble background, is exceptionally beautiful, and at a young age has reached Foundation Establishnt perfection, possessing an extrely rare special physique [Chaos Sacred Embryo], making her a perfect match for Senior Brother."
Gu Haitang? Chu Xuan vaguely rembered hearing this na, like Master’s or soone else’s ntion, indeed a renowned young talent in the cultivation world.
But that’s not important, the important thing is, Purple Heaven Jade Mansion wants to have an arranged marriage with Cyan Lotus Daoist Palace? They’re even willing to marry off their treasured jewel?
This does not make sense...
The so-called emperor takes turns, this year it’s my family’s turn, the leading sect of the righteous path is not unchangeable.
Since the righteous vs. evil war six hundred years ago, Profound Celestial Sect was nearly delisted, and the originally second-ranked Purple Heaven Jade Mansion rose promptly, making a na and seeming mighty, at least openly still able to command respect.
As for Cyan Lotus Daoist Palace, its status leans more towards being a hidden sect within the righteous path, from founding to the present, never interfering in such matters.
Indeed, the Daoist Palace has deep roots; if they manage to bring it over and form a marital alliance, it would be no small advantage for Purple Heaven Jade Mansion.
But is this truly worth it, for them to pay such a great price?
Although that darn "Chaos Sacred Embryo," Chu Xuan seed to have glanced at it in a book describing various physiques, can’t rember the specific characteristics anymore.
However, a promising cultivator like this should be nurtured well by any sect, even if Gu Haitang can’t ascend in the future, she will beco a pillar within the sect.
What’s her age now? Doesn’t seem to be over twenty, right? And she achieved Foundation Establishnt perfection four or five years ago, just waiting for an opportunity to form a core.
At such a critical juncture of cultivation, and you marry her off? No, this doesn’t make sense.
"No no no, you guys must have gotten sothing wrong, this ridiculous rumor, who made it up?"
"Moreover, it involves another sect. If this spreads, causing disputes between the two sects, the bla is no small matter."
Seeing the senior brother’s expression and tone beco serious, the disciple beca a bit flustered, waving his hands repeatedly: "No, I, don’t know who said it, I just heard it from Junior Brother."
At this mont, one of the two female disciples, a woman in a light green dress, hurriedly stepped forward to greet:
"Senior Brother, Junior Brother Gu’s mouth isn’t sharp, let explain."
Goodness, it’s you again, Chu Xuan silently griped in his heart.
She was the girl who blushed and fled upon seeing Chu Xuan last ti in the Scripture Repository, also one of Xiao Yue’s closest friends.
"Even though I don’t exactly know who initially spread this, but just three days ago, Purple Heaven Jade Mansion indeed sent people to visit, and reportedly t with the headmaster and several elders."
"Afterwards, word spread that, after so ti, Purple Heaven Jade Mansion will send a group of young disciples over for learning exchange, which should include Gu Haitang."
Chu Xuan furrowed his brow. He had been diligently practicing in seclusion these days and hadn’t been disturbed by anyone, so not knowing was inevitable.
However, the elders eting should not have ntioned any arranged marriage matters, otherwise, Master wouldn’t have failed to notify him.
The young girl continued: "After the word spread, initially everyone was just interested in those disciples from the great sect, intending to converse in the Dao and compete."
"But soon, soone ntioned Gu Haitang’s special physique, and thus thought of Senior Brother, I presu later rumors of the arranged marriage between the two sects would spread, quite detailed, likely connected to this."
"Hold on," Chu Xuan raised his hand to temporarily stop it, "Chaos Sacred Embryo and what does it have to do with ? Why was it linked to ?"
The girl didn’t explain, rely raised the book in her hands. This was a copy of "Ancient and Modern Body Systems" describing various special physiques.
On the opened page was a record related to Chaos Sacred Embryo:
The Chaos Body, in ancient tis, was considered a powerful physique, innately suitable for practicing various chaotic cultivation techniques, in environnts with corresponding spiritual energy, cultivation speed was exceedingly fast, after success, interprets Chaos Dao, extraordinarily powerful...
Chu Xuan scanned a few lines quickly jumping down, soon spotting these words at the end:
Note: Chaos Sacred Embryo, when combined with Innate Dao Body, might yield an extrely rare physique [Innate Chaos Dao Embryo].
This type of physique has only a few individuals throughout history, due to Chaos Sacred Embryo being rare, and Innate Dao Body equally rare, for individuals possessing these two physiques to be born in the sa era, being one male and one female, and mutually fond, overcoming the low birthrate issue among high-level cultivators, only then might it be birthed, conditions too stringent.
However, if it succeeds, Innate Chaos Dao Embryo is ensured to have the prowess of an immortal, considered among the strongest physique throughout history.
Chu Xuan looked on stupefied, isn’t there such a thing??
He grabbed the book in hand, quickly flipped to the section on Innate Dao Body, indeed finding a line of small notes, but why hadn’t he discovered this before?
No wait, Chu Xuan didn’t read this one earlier, vaguely rembers it nad "Record of Cultivation Physiques," probably limited by the author’s restricted knowledge, not as comprehensive as this ancient and modern whatever.
But none of this is the key point. The most crucial point is, he’s not an Innate Dao Body, hey!
