NOVEL NEXT Chapter 42
"Master Zhao, you should know my current state. I have lost most of my cultivation and have no future in the sect. Therefore, I want to marry into the Zhao family and leave a descendant, so that my life will not be in vain. I hope Master Zhao can help me!"
"If Master Zhao still has doubts, you can show this to the royal family. I believe they can recognize it."
"No, no, since you are so confident, I naturally believe this is true!"
"But I heard that there are still many outstanding female disciples in Xuanyang Sect. Why do you want to come to my Zhao family to be a son-in-law?" Zhao Yi asked.
Chen Xuan had already thought of his excuse. He sighed, "The master doesn't know that although I am a core disciple of Xuanyang Sect, I have lost all my cultivation and my future is bleak. Those snobbish women who used to surround me have begun to slander and mock me one by one! Alas!"
"Your experience is the same as mine. We are both wanderers in the world!" Zhao Yi also comforted him and mentioned Zhao Tianming, who had the same experience as Chen Xuan, which aroused Chen Xuan's favor.
"I've also heard about your son's story. God is jealous of talented people!"
"But don't worry, Master Zhao. I didn't come to our Zhao family for nothing. Before I lost my cultivation, I was a third-grade alchemist and a third-grade talisman master. Although I can't refine and make them now, I still have experience. I can guide your Zhao family's disciples."
"Also, although my spiritual roots are gone, my descendants still have a high probability of having good spiritual roots. It doesn't matter whether his surname is Chen or not, as long as he is my descendant."
Zhao Yi smiled in his heart when he heard this. He didn't even bother to care whether he was a disciple of Xuanyang Sect or not. As long as what he said about alchemy and talisman making was true, he would have made a lot of money.
Not to mention the talents that his descendants might have! Having such a son-in-law is definitely a favorite among the favorites even in the royal family. Now he actually came directly to his Zhao family!
Maybe... In the future, his Zhao family can take this opportunity to be on par with the royal family!
"Ahem, I still have one thing I don't understand. I wonder why you chose my Zhao family?" Zhao Yi asked politely.
"This is about your son. He and I have the same fate. In my heart, I have already regarded him as a confidant, so I came to the Zhao family to seek refuge!"
Chen Xuan said the lines he had prepared long ago. Although it was far-fetched, it was enough to shift the balance of his choice to the Zhao family.
"In that case, my Zhao family is willing to take you in, and from now on you are my Zhao family's son-in-law!"
"Thank you, head of the family!" Chen Xuan was secretly happy in his heart. This Zhao Yi really couldn't stand the huge benefits he brought.
However, Chen Xuan also knew that this was only the first step. Next, he had to use some means to completely gain the trust of the Zhao family before he could implement his plan.
"By the way, I wonder if my confidant Zhao Tianming is in the Zhao family? I have long wanted to meet him."
"I'm really sorry, he went out to gain experience, and I don't know when he will come back." When Zhao Tianming was mentioned, a trace of unnaturalness flashed across Zhao Yi's face.
After all, the princess had brought people to cancel the engagement, and his Zhao family had lost face in the entire Zhou capital because of Zhao Tianming.
"Is that so? That's a pity." Chen Xuan said. The golden-winged spirit beast was very fast, so naturally he arrived in Zhou capital first.
Then Zhao Yi exchanged a few words with Chen Xuan and arranged for him to rest.
"Since Chen Xiaoyou is so determined, I will let the women of my Zhao family prepare today, and you can choose one to get married tomorrow! From today on, you are the son-in-law of my Zhao family. I will arrange a courtyard for you, where you can practice with peace of mind."
"Then thank you, patriarch."
So, under Zhao Yi's arrangement, Chen Xuan temporarily lived in a luxurious courtyard.
Zhao Yi returned to his house in a hurry, first notified everyone in the Zhao family, and asked them to arrange their own women, and then returned to his master bedroom to seek the opinion of his eldest wife.
...
One day passed in the blink of an eye.
The next day, Chen Xuan, led by Zhao Yi, came to the most core residential area of the Zhao family.
The people who live here are generally the direct descendants of the Zhao family, not the collateral ones. Obviously, Zhao Yi intends to let Chen Xuan marry into the direct descendants directly, so that the blood relationship between them will be stronger.
After entering the house, Chen Xuan found that it was full of people, but they were all middle-aged men or old men.
Chen Xuan: "???"
Seemingly seeing Chen Xuan's confusion, Zhao Yi quickly stood up and introduced them one by one:
"Don't worry, my friend, they are the backbone of my Zhao family, the deacons and elders of various departments. The children you choose to marry today are all their children."
"I see." ChenXuan nodded to show that he understood. He married someone else's daughter, so his father-in-law must come and see.
Finally, Zhao Yi pointed to the main seat again: "This is my wife, you should meet her too!"
Chen Xuan then moved his eyes over, and what came into his eyes was a beautiful woman about thirty years old.
This beautiful woman has a beautiful face, skin like cream, eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like autumn water, a straight nose, moist red lips, white teeth, and a long black hair tied into a cloud bun, decorated with several exquisite jade hairpins, looking elegant and luxurious.
She was wearing a lavender long skirt, the long skirt dragged on the ground, her waist was not fat, her figure was slender, and her curves were graceful, giving people a sense of elegance.
In particular, she exuded a unique charm of a mature woman, which made people excited.

Chen Xuan was also slightly stunned when he saw this beautiful woman. He did not expect Zhao Yi's wife to be so beautiful.
He came back to his senses and hurriedly bowed: "Chen Xuan greets Madam!"
The beautiful woman smiled slightly and said generously: "Young friend, there is no need to be polite. Please sit down!"
Chen Xuan nodded and sat in the guest seat.
"Then call them all out now, don't let Chen Xiaoyou wait anxiously." Zhao Yi's eldest wife, Huang Meihua, said.
"No problem, Great Elder, let them all come out!" Zhao Yi ordered.
