Cultivating Immortality in a Family: I Prove Immortality Through the Chaotic Dao Realm

Chapter 70 Return to Phoenix Forest Valley, Enemy Investigation!
Under the cover of night, an aerial formation consisting of two airships, a large bird, and a flying sword soared through the sky.

Chen Ruiang didn't have a medium-sized flying boat on hand. He spent most of his assets collecting fire-attribute spiritual materials to build his spiritual foundation.

Therefore, his entourage was far less extravagant than Lu Zhengting's.

However, his flying sword is a special flying sword, which is faster.

It's just that it can't carry many people.

Flying swords are arguably the most common equipment among all cultivators, serving not only as offensive weapons but also as means of escape.

Among equipment of the same level, using a flying sword as a means of escape is the fastest.

Flying swords designed specifically for escape usually have at least half of their engraved restrictions that facilitate flight.

For example, wind transformation, air breaking, flying feathers, lightning control, etc.

Therefore, such flying swords are not powerful in attack, but they are extremely fast and can serve as excellent auxiliary equipment, playing a significant role in combat.

Chen Ruiang led the team, while Chen Qian and Chen Yunyi stood on Xiao Qing's back, bringing up the rear.

Chen Yunyi looked preoccupied and barely responded to Chen Qian's occasional attempts to talk to her.

Chen Qian understood somewhat why Chen Yunyi had changed like this.

It's highly likely that the fight has ended, and their mindset has returned to normal, finally giving them time to think about what Chen Qian had previously transmitted.

Chen Qian says he wants to propose marriage, what should we do?
Chen Yunyi herself didn't know either.

My sister has already married him.

Am I going to marry into that family too?
What kind of talk is that?

Although it was normal for men to have three wives and four concubines, it was not uncommon for sisters to share a husband.

But if the younger sister marries first and then the older sister arrives, there won't be many.

Besides, I practically raised my younger sister myself since she was little, and now if she were to marry the same man, I really wouldn't be able to get over that hurdle.

What will my sister think of me? Will she think I'm here to steal her husband?

Ugh! So annoying!
For the first time, she seemed unsettled, her mind in turmoil, losing her usual aloof demeanor.

"Sister Yunyi, are you worried about my going to propose marriage?"

Chen Qian suddenly spoke, immediately hitting the nail on the head regarding Chen Yunyi's thoughts.

Chen Yunyi turned her head and looked at Chen Qian.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with complex emotions.

He wanted to speak but hesitated.

Chen Qian understood her meaning and grasped her mindset.

Without waiting for her answer, he continued:
"Don't worry. My visit to propose marriage was just to show my attitude."

“I won’t take any action without your actual approval.”

"I will wait until you have thought everything through carefully and the time is right before I come to visit."

Chen Yunyi immediately felt a huge weight lifted off her shoulders. After a long pause, she whispered, "Thank you."

Speechless all the way.

The journey home was peaceful and uneventful, without any further complications.

After flying for nearly four hours, the group finally returned to Phoenix Valley at dawn.

Upon returning to the valley, they immediately learned that the Grand Elder and his entourage had also returned.

That's good; barring any unforeseen circumstances, this is good news.

Old Ancestor Chen returned to Fengming Mountain, and the Second Elder and other elders also went their separate ways.

Chen Qian returned to the small courtyard, and Chen Yunyi also returned to the main mansion.

Only the patriarch Chen Hongming was still busy. He casually grabbed a few strong men from among the family members who were in the mid-stage of Qi Refining, and he also needed to arrange for the dozen or so newly recruited sons-in-law.

Back in the courtyard, his two young wives were already up. They were overjoyed to see Chen Qian return.

They didn't know what had happened. Chen Yunyi only informed them that there was an urgent matter requiring them to go out with Chen Qian, and that their return date was uncertain.

However, the somber atmosphere yesterday, coupled with the fact that the family patriarch personally took action, the family cultivators gathered at the valley entrance, and the rarely seen First Elder and Second Elder leading the way in a grand procession, naturally did not escape the notice of the others in the valley. Many people were discussing the matter and concerned about how things would develop.

Unexpectedly, the matter was resolved in less than a day, everyone returned, and only one person was lost. Sometimes Chen Qian would go into seclusion for two or three days at a time, and the time we wouldn't see him would actually be longer.

Chen Qian was wearing a dharma robe, which had a natural dust-removing effect, so he wasn't very dirty.

Having not slept all night and having gone through a fierce battle, they naturally carried an air of travel weariness.

Moreover, he killed quite a few people; if you have a sensitive nose, you can even smell a faint scent of blood.

Su Jin quickly brought over the toiletries and helped Chen Qian wash his face and hands.

The two ladies offered words of comfort and brought Chen Qian some clean clothes to change into.

Qingman and Ziyao, like butterflies flitting among flowers, brought various breakfast items from the kitchen, including Xuanyu Spirit Rice Porridge, Red Pork Three Delicacies Buns, and Crystal Spirit Fish Pancakes.

In every aspect, the women served him perfectly, perfectly illustrating what it means to be waited on hand and foot.

After breakfast, Chen Qian continued to chat with his two young wives and pretty maid.

After Qingman and Ziyao finished their chores, they also came over to listen in. Chen Qian then shared some of the most exciting parts of yesterday's battle with them.

In his description, the danger was not great, the atmosphere was exciting, the husband displayed great power, and the enemies were beheaded one after another.

He also received a wave of admiring glances from his wife and maids.

The courtyard was immediately filled with laughter and cheerful chatter.

........................

Crane Fairy Ridge.

This is a small mountain range with an ethereal atmosphere and beautiful scenery.

It is also the ancestral home of the Lu family, the greatest rival of the Chen family in Fenglin Valley for hundreds of years.

White Crane Peak is the main peak of Crane Immortal Ridge, possessing a mid-grade second-tier spiritual vein, and its summit is home to many crane-like demonic beasts.

Halfway up the mountain is the location of the cave dwelling of Lu Zhengting, the patriarch of the Lu family.

In a side hall of the cave, Lu Zhengting, who had led his team back, did not rest. Instead, he immediately summoned Lu Yuanjiang, the eighth elder in charge of the family's intelligence system.

"Yuan Jiang, do you know anything about this person?"

Lu Zhengting made a hand seal, and his magic power condensed into a light screen in the void.

The screen displayed a dashing young man with handsome features and a composed demeanor.

Lu Yuanjiang examined it carefully for a while, then shook his head and said, "I don't recognize it."

Lu Zhengting said with a gloomy face, "This is a member of the Chen family, yet no one in the family knows anything about him."

“In the battle at Bijia Mountain just now, this little thief killed five or six members of my Lu family, including Yuan Hai, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining.”

"Ah!" Lu Yuanjiang was instantly covered in sweat.

Being able to kill someone at the ninth level of Qi Refining is already considered to be among the top combat power below the Foundation Establishment level in their family. As the family's intelligence officer, he hadn't been able to gather any information at all.

This was undoubtedly a dereliction of duty on his part.

Just as he was about to apologize, Lu Zhengting waved his hand, interrupting him.

"Enough of the rest. This little thief seems to have sprung from a stone. Investigate him! Find out all his information as soon as possible."

Lu Yuanjiang dared not say anything more and accepted the order to leave.

The same thing happened to the Zhou and Wu families. Chen Qian appeared out of nowhere like a blazing sun, disturbing their peace.

As the person involved, he naturally neither knew nor cared.

........................

Fenglin Valley outside the valley.

afternoon.

After finishing dealing with numerous urgent matters that had taken place in Ligu for many days, the head of the family, Chen Hongming, came to Chen Qian's courtyard with Chen Hongwei.

The visit of the head of the household and father-in-law naturally received a warm welcome from the whole family.

Chen Hongming hadn't seen his two daughters for several weeks, so he naturally couldn't help but ask about their well-being.

After exchanging pleasantries, Chen Hongming and Chen Qian finally got down to business.
