Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

"Do you think that this is the challenge? It is also part of the trials. I am not allowed to take you to the Sky Heaven's sect so easily. You will need to find your own way after you enter the Shai'ah province. You will enter the Black Swamp forest, and you will need to get to the sect on your own. That is the real first trial. Just get a horse to the entrance to the Black Swamp forest, but don't take it inside. It will lose its life." Liu Qian said.

"There is another trial now? Why is it that the Sky Heaven's sect is so selective? I am already at the second layer of the Foundation Building stage, arent I? Can't I just be admitted directly into the sect?" I grumbled.

"For you to get in like that, then you need to be at the peak of the Core Formation stage, at the minimum. You overestimate yourself once more." he shook his head.

"Where is my grandson!" at that moment, I heard a thundering sound. But from here, I felt no anger. There was only joy. This was the sound of Liu Hong. He probably just got the information from the Cai family. What I did was no small feat.

I looked at where the sound was coming from. I saw my grandfather rushing towards me, with his arms wide open to embrace me and his mouth grinning from teeth to teeth.

"Even though I did something that great, the response shouldn't be this high. What the hell made him so overjoyed?" I wondered.

"You are such a capable grandson. I was sure that the Liu Family was going to be embroiled in a power tustle, but to think that you went to the Cai family and solved it all in one go. I was confused when the Bai family contract was dissolved, but who would have thought that you went ahead and bagged the Cai family's golden daughter?" he laughed again.

"Wait. What are you talking about? What bagging? I don't understand." I took a step back in confusion.

"You didn't know what happened? The Cai family set forward a proposition to ally the two families in marriage. You shall wed Cai Lien. That is what you did today, is it not? I am so proud of you. Now, no one will dare look down upon the Liu family. We sure as hell raised a tiger of a son." he said.

"They proposed a marriage contract?! Between me and Cai Lien?!" My mind went blank as I tried to register what was going on. This was not even close to what I expected. I just went there to complete the simple task of giving her a pill. I just wanted to let go of all my attachments in the Kaishi city. But why did they just have to marry me off to Cai Lien now?

"Does Cai Lien know about this?" I asked.

"She is the one who brought this contract over. Why wouldn't she know about it? Why don't you tell your mother the good news while I talk over the details with your father here." he beckoned me to go inside.

"How did this happen? What possibly went wrong in my intentions?" this thought raced through my head.

"It is pretty simple, isn't it? You impressed the old lady of the Cai family so much that she wanted her grand daughter to marry someone like you. It is not every day that you come across someone who is talented and also an alchemist. At least, that is my analysis." Liu Man pitched in.

"Alright. I get it. But why did this have to happen. I did not want to get into any of this now." I said.

"I do not understand what you are saying. You find Cai Lien incredibly attractive. You are now engaged to her. Why are you hesistating to take another step? You might want to get away from this city, but Cai Lien will also be coming with you to the Sky Heaven's sect, is she not? She will be helpful, as she is also very talented. Who knows? Your feelings for her might mature then." Liu Man said.

"I do not understand why you talk like this. From where do you get advice like this?" I asked.

"All of these are memories that I seem to have since my birth. I can talk normally, and I can understand how the world works. I guess that this is the inheritance that my parents gave me for me to survive." Liu Man said.

"Oh well. I guess that you are right. I mean, who wouldn't love the company of a beauty through the arduous journeys that I am supposed to go through. But why would she be okay with it? She already did not want to get into a marriage contract with someone else. That is why she even asked me even though she clearly did not like me and my reputation. Why would she even deliver this news herself?" I wondered.

"I am afraid that I cannot help you there. I do not understand how women think. That is one thing that the memories that I have do not tell me anything about." Liu Man said.

I shook my head as I looked around with confusion. Liu Hong was talking to my father about something. Now, I had to tell my mother what just happened, and I had to explain that I was going to get married to a new person now.

This world confused me. How did things like this become common? I just wanted to escape for one day and just relax for one day before I left. I tried doing that before, but I met Bai Zhiqui and her master that day, so it did not help me at all. It seemed that this world did not want to leave me for even a moment. I could not catch a breath!
