“Hahaha!” Before anyone arrived, laughter could be heard: “Daoyou Ge, great joy, great joy!”
A middle-aged man with elegant clothes but ordinary appearance came in with a happy face and brisk steps.
This is Qiu Hu, one of the elders of the External Affairs Hall of Xuantian Sect. Ge Laodao has had several encounters with him, but he cannot be said to be familiar with him, just an acquaintance.
Taoist Ge went up to him and said, "Thank you, Elder Qiu. Congratulations, congratulations!"
Qiu Hu laughed and scolded, "You old drunkard, you found a good disciple but didn't invite me. Is it possible that I am not worthy of Brother Ge's attention? It's a pity that I thought of you when I had good things to do."
Ge Laodao laughed and said, "I would like to ask you. Elder Qiu is very busy, so it's better to catch a talent!"
Qiu Hu pretended to be angry: "Don't make excuses if you do something wrong. I will punish you by drinking three cups later... No, you are an old man who loves drinking. This is a reward. I will punish you by drinking three cups less!"
Ge Laodao confessed his crime: "I accept the punishment, I accept the punishment! I will stop drinking for one day today!"
The two of them were not familiar with each other, they just knew each other. No one would visit without a reason, so today I would not drink a drop of wine, so as not to delay the matter.
"That's right!" Qiu Hu smiled and said, "Daoyou Ge, the great joy I mentioned is not just about you accepting a disciple. Today, Daoyou Ge has two great joys!"
Taoist Ge was on high alert, but his face showed that he was greedy: "Oh? What good news does Taoist Qiu have for me? Tell me quickly, don't tease me!"
He just doesn't care about his appearance on weekdays and is used to being free and easy. It's not that he doesn't know how to act according to the situation.
What had you not experienced when you pretended to be the former leader three hundred years ago
When it comes to pretending to be serious, he can be more serious than anyone else.
Qiu Hu laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist Ge, do you know Elder Wu from the Broken Sword Mountain of Xuantian Sect?"
Taoist Ge thought for a moment and asked, "But is it the Taoist friend Wu who likes to play games in the Fanchen Casino?" Xuantian Sect is too big, and too many elders are not famous, so it is difficult to remember them at the moment. Taoist Ge knew that he was because the two had similar hobbies, one was addicted to alcohol and the other was addicted to gambling.
None of them are fun.
Qiu Hu smiled and said, "Yes, it is Senior Brother Wu. Senior Brother Wu has a daughter who is a golden tortoise demon. She is dignified, beautiful, gentle and generous. A few days ago, I heard from somewhere that Brother Ge had found a good disciple, the dragon tortoise, so he asked me to make a match. That's why I shamelessly came here uninvited, relying on my friendship with Brother Ge."
Ge Laodao's face turned strange.
Is his disciple so popular in this regard? A few days ago, the turtle monster with bad intentions was killed by old man Qiao with one sword, and he comes again today
You don't even do some research before you speak? My little turtle is only three or four years old!
Qiu Hu glanced towards the island, looked at Su He and said with a smile: "This must be Brother Ge's disciple, right? He is indeed majestic, no wonder my niece admires him so much."
"What do you think, Brother Ge?"
"If this good thing is accomplished, what Brother Ge receives today is not only a dragon turtle with the bloodline of a divine beast, but also Xuantian Sect's son-in-law. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the relationship between the two families is further improved?"
It sounds as if the son-in-law of Xuantianmen is more noble than the divine beast Xuetong. I wonder if your Qinglong thinks so too
The Qingyuan Sect's leaders all had different looks, but none of them looked good. How could a marriage proposal be made in public? All around were the elders and sect masters of the Dongyun Sect. If Master Ge refused, wouldn't that be trampling on the face of the Xuantian Sect
Qingyuanmen, what to do
This man had a kind face and a joking look, but he was using the power of Xuantian Sect to suppress Qingyuan Sect. Everyone looked at Feng Yiju, who was swinging his teacup and it was unclear what he was thinking.
Qiu Hu was very pleased at first, but his expression changed after hearing the latter part. He said seriously: "Daoyou Ge, you are joking. Xuantian Sect's rules prohibit disciples from marrying outside the sect. If you have a Taoist partner you like, you can only marry a live-in son-in-law."
Ge Laodao laughed silently, fooling the devil. Who is the second wife of Tianyue Villa who didn't marry out? Where did those Xuantianmen wives of Baixian Palace come from? Your leader's daughter eloped with the bandits, why don't you marry out with me
I, an old Taoist priest, have lived for 1,200 years. Even before you stick your butt out, I know what shit you are going to do!
Ge Laodao shook his head and said, "I am stubborn and I am afraid I cannot stand the grievances of being a son-in-law. If there is any trouble, it will damage the harmony between the two families."
Qiu Hu laughed loudly: "Fellow Daoist Ge, you are joking. What kind of trouble can a little turtle cause? My Xuantian Sect has countless unruly disciples. Who has really caused trouble? Even if they really did cause trouble, the sect will cover it. What is there to be afraid of?"
He looked at Su He and said earnestly, "Little Dragon Turtle, marrying into Xuantian Sect will bring you countless opportunities, and you will have the chance to see the power of a true divine beast. I might really let you have a glimpse of the divine beast. Are you willing to follow me?"
Su He snorted in his heart and hummed softly.
Don’t know, don’t know, don’t marry, don’t get married, don’t get married!
Where did this grandson come from? He ruined my good mood for the whole day.
Qiu Hu was startled. He really didn't expect to be directly retorted by the dragon turtle. Then he realized that this was just a turtle and probably didn't understand the ways of the world.
The Qingyuan Sect cares most about his identity as the Xuantian Sect, which is worthless in the eyes of beasts.
His face twitched and he forced a laugh: "Marriage is a matter of parents' decision. If parents are not around, teachers will make the decision. I'm asking you, little turtle, you're obsessed with appearances."
He looked at Ge Laodao again, with a meaningful smile on his face: "Brother Ge, are you afraid that my Xuantian Sect will look down on the little dragon turtle?"
"Then you are overthinking, fellow Daoist. As the elder of the External Affairs Hall of Xuantian Sect, coming here in person to propose marriage is not enough to show my sincerity? I can even preside over the disciple-taking ceremony as the elder of Xuantian Sect. How do you think?"
He is the elder of Xuantian Sect, Xuantian Sect! He personally came to propose marriage, and other sect leaders and their children did not receive this treatment.
I have even sacrificed my reputation to preside over the disciple-accepting ceremony for you, which is enough to show my attitude.
Ge Laodao did not answer.
Qiu Hu looked at Ge Laodao, and his smile faded slightly: "Daoyou Ge is hesitating, you don't think that my Xuantian Sect is trying to steal the Dragon Turtle, right? A mere turtle with the blood of a Dragon Turtle is not enough to make our Xuantian Sect act so mean. Daoyou Ge is still the Dragon Turtle Master, Qingyuan Sect is still the Dragon Turtle Sect, he just lives in Xuantian Sect."
Seeing that Taoist Ge frowned, he simply poured oil on him: "Daoyou Ge, as the Dragon Turtle Master, you won't block his future, right?"
Being a son-in-law in Xuantian Sect has no better future than being a guardian beast in Qingyuan Sect
Taoist Ge's shoulders slumped, and he returned to his cynical, unkempt look, but his aura was rising steadily. He looked at Qiu Fox with a smile and said, "If it weren't for my identity as an elder of Xuantian Sect, I, the old Taoist, could crush three of them to death with just one finger."
He has the best inheritance of Xuantian Sect, sufficient resources, and is 1,800 years old, but he doesn't even have the cultivation of an old Taoist priest for 30 years. What the hell is this? How dare you stir up trouble here in front of me
Qiu Hu seemed to be unable to see the rising temperament of Ge Laodao. He put away his smile and frowned: "Or does Brother Ge think that I, a disciple of Xuantian Sect, am not worthy of your dragon turtle?"
A turtle demon is naturally nothing in Xuantian Sect, and doesn't even have a proper name. But as long as she is called "Xuantian Sect disciple", then there will be no one else who is not worthy of her, a mere dragon turtle...
Just then, a voice from outside the island hailed: "Princess Yunmengze's gift has arrived!"
