Reborn through an arranged marriage, I awakened the Shennong farming system.

While Su Bai was recuperating at home, the wealthy families of Dongcheng, Beicheng, and Haicheng finally prepared all the marriage proposal lists and handed them over to Hua Jueming, the Hua family's butler.

After Hua Jueming collected all the names, he took them directly to a Taoist temple in Dongcheng and handed them over to someone who was leisurely sitting in the garden drinking tea.

"Mr. Bai, the list has been collected."

Bai Ze's tea-drinking mood was ruined, and he looked at the person standing in front of him with great displeasure. "Hey, Jue Mingzi, couldn't you have waited a while before coming? Can't you see I was drinking tea? Now that you've interrupted me, I can't drink this tea!"

“It’s fine if you don’t want to drink. Let me tidy up. You quickly take a look and see if there are any descendants of Shennong among these people.” Hua Jueming said, reaching out to take the teacup from Bai Ze’s hand.

"Hey, hey!" Bai Ze quickly stopped him, protecting the teacup in his hand and looking at Hua Jueming with disapproval. "How come you're just like your master? You only have this one thing in your eyes. Can't you look at other things? There are so many beautiful things in this world. Wouldn't it be wonderful to appreciate them more?" As he spoke, he leaned back in his chair and stretched.

Seeing this, Hua Jueming remained motionless and said with a serious expression, "I have no mind to think about anything else until the matter of the demon realm is resolved." He was also a member of the demon race. If it weren't for Hua Gengchen, he would have died long ago. Now, he was helping Hua Gengchen manage the household as a way of repaying the kindness Hua Gengchen had shown him when he saved him.

“You…” Bai Ze pointed at Hua Jueming, but in the end he held back and didn’t say anything. He drank the tea in his teacup in one gulp, put down the teacup and spread his hand towards Hua Jueming, “Give me the list!” Hua Jueming immediately put the stack of lists in his hand into Bai Ze’s hand.

"Wow!" Bai Ze was shocked by the weight in his hand. "Your master is still as imposing as ever! There are so many people!" He roughly estimated that there were at least forty or fifty of them!

Hua Jueming said calmly, "If it weren't for your blessing, the price here would have been several times higher." His master was of divine appearance, and with just one glance, mortals would kneel down at his feet. This little bit is hardly enough to show off his master's power.

"Um..." Bai Ze felt a little guilty when he talked about this, and asked in a low voice, "Your master doesn't know yet, does he?"

“Mr. Bai Ze, if my master knew that you were deliberately smearing him behind his back to reduce your workload, and that you had been doing it for five hundred years, do you think my master would remain calm?”

When Hua Jueming heard rumors in the human world that Hua Gengchen suffered from a "stubborn" illness, was cold-blooded and ruthless, had a violent temper, and was destined to be alone, the first person he suspected was Bai Ze. Sure enough, after he came to find Bai Ze, Bai Ze readily told him that he did it in order to reduce his workload!

Hua Jueming had intended to tell Hua Gengchen, because Bai Ze's actions would reduce their chances of finding the descendant of Shennong, but what Bai Ze said next made Hua Jueming choose to ignore it.

Bai Ze said, "The descendant of Shennong they found is destined to have a marriage with Hua Gengchen. If he backs down just because he heard some unverified rumors, it proves that he and Hua Gengchen have no fate at all. Even if he spends time and energy to calculate, it will be of no use. It would be better to lighten the burden on this old man."

Although Bai Ze's words seemed like an attempt to shirk work, Hua Jueming had to admit that Bai Ze's words made sense.

So he pretended not to know anything.

Hua Jueming had another reason for choosing to conceal it at the time: in his eyes, Hua Gengchen had always been wise, and Bai Ze's little tricks could not be hidden from Hua Gengchen's eyes at all. Hua Jueming predicted that Hua Gengchen would find out soon. However, Hua Gengchen only cared about the common people, and Bai Ze's little tricks went unnoticed by Hua Gengchen for hundreds of years.

Bai Ze puffed out his cheeks and muttered, "Who would have thought he wouldn't have noticed for so long!" He'd been doing it for so many years, it had become a habit, yet Hua Gengchen still hadn't found out! However, as time went on, Bai Ze became increasingly afraid that Hua Gengchen would find out about it.

If Hua Gengchen found out that he secretly had someone spread rumors about his "stubborn" illness every thirty years before the deadline, Hua Gengchen, that vengeful guy, would definitely pluck his hair out.

"Little Jueming, you must keep this a secret!" Bai Ze solemnly instructed Hua Jueming, "It's just these people this time, right? I'll calculate it right away and tell you the result as quickly as possible!" As he spoke, Bai Ze took out a Bagua plate from his pocket.

Hua Jueming remained silent, which was tantamount to acknowledging Bai Ze's words. If Hua Gengchen found out about the rumors, there would definitely be a big battle. He hoped that the battle would come a little later, so that Hua Gengchen might be magnanimous and not hold it against Bai Ze because he was too old to move.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Bai Ze."

Hua Jueming always came to Bai Ze with a list full of confidence, but he always left disappointed. He wondered if there would be any results this time.

In fact, he had some doubts at the beginning. Since he was someone who was destined to meet Hua Gengchen, why didn't Bai Ze just give them a birth date and time to find him? Wouldn't that have been faster?

Bai Ze initially refused to explain, but after seeing his persistent questioning, he finally told him, though only in a few words.

"Heaven will not allow it!"

Hua Jueming never imagined that the Heavenly Dao truly existed. When he was rescued by Hua Gengchen, he only had two or three hundred years of cultivation and had not yet experienced the great calamity. When he heard the words "Heavenly Dao" from Bai Ze's mouth, Hua Jueming even felt a faint pressure pressing down on his head.

That was the first time Hua Jueming felt the inviolability of the Heavenly Dao.

Now I finally understand why they go to so much trouble to find someone in the vast sea of ​​people.

It's all because of the will of Heaven.

Bai Ze was quite fast at calculating birth charts, at least in Hua Jueming's eyes. Bai Ze picked up a list, casually fiddled with it on the Bagua plate a few times, and then carelessly tossed the list on the ground without even glancing at it.

Hua Jueming watched quietly, a hint of anticipation lurking in his deep eyes, but it was impossible to detect without careful observation.

Suddenly, Hua Jueming noticed that Bai Ze paused slightly, hesitated for a moment while holding a list, and then began to calculate using the Bagua compass. This time, his movements were not at all as casual as before. When he got the result, Bai Ze's eyes flashed.

Hua Jueming's breath hitched, and he looked nervously at Bai Ze, but dared not say a word.

He had consulted Bai Ze's fortune-telling methods dozens, if not hundreds, but this was the first time he had ever seen Bai Ze with such an expression. An idea sprouted from the depths of Hua Jueming's heart, trembling as it emerged.

"Mr. Bai Ze..." Hua Jueming finally couldn't help but call out, but after calling out, he didn't dare to ask any more questions, somewhat afraid of knowing the truth.

Bai Ze frowned and whispered, "I might have miscalculated because I was too careless. Let me calculate it again carefully!" This is a matter of life and death for the demon realm, so calculating it again is no big deal. It's just to be on the safe side.

Hua Jueming nodded hurriedly. He also felt that it was better to calculate it again, otherwise he would hardly believe that they had finally found the person they had been searching for for thousands of years!

After carefully checking the birth information on the document, Bai Ze solemnly picked up the Bagua compass and began to calculate. While waiting for the results, Bai Ze's breathing unconsciously tightened.

He had previously said that there was a high chance of finding the descendant of Shennong, but that was really just to get Hua Gengchen to come to the human realm for a blind date on time. The situation in the demon realm was getting more and more difficult. If they weren't given any hope, Bai Ze really didn't know how long the peace that Hua Gengchen was trying so hard to maintain could last. Who would have thought that his words would come true and that this person would actually appear!

Looking at the final result displayed on the Bagua compass, Bai Ze rubbed his eyes in disbelief, checked it several times, and then excitedly said, "Found it!"

"Really?!" Hua Jueming was half excited and half incredulous. Had they really found the descendant of Shennong?

Bai Ze nodded vigorously, "We really found him! Let me see his name." Bai Ze held the list in his hand up to his eyes and locked his gaze on the name column, "His name is Su Bai, from the Su family of Beicheng."

Hua Jueming clenched his fists, so excited that he didn't know what to do next, and almost revealed his true form.

Bai Ze swiftly slapped Hua Jueming on the head, suppressing the restless demonic power within him, and laughed, "Little Jueming, you can't turn back into your original form here." His garden was meticulously maintained by him, and it couldn't be destroyed.

Seeing that Hua Jueming had calmed down, Bai Ze formed a hand seal, preparing to tell Hua Gengchen the good news.

"What is it?" Hua Gengchen waited a while before answering, as usual, and his voice was still chillingly cold and sparing with words.

"Master, the descendant of Shennong has been found!" Before Bai Ze could speak, Hua Jueming couldn't wait to say it. Their demon race had finally received hope!

There was a long silence on the other end of the spirit seal before Hua Gengchen's voice rang out again, still with that indifferent tone and sparing use of words. But those familiar with Hua Gengchen knew that he was extremely excited at this moment: "Who?"

“He’s from the Su family of Beicheng, named Su Bai,” Bai Ze said. “However, his Shennong bloodline is too shallow. It will take some time before he can help the demon race.” The Shennong clan members disappeared without a trace after the second demon war. Su Bai is the first descendant of Shennong they have found.

"We've waited for over a thousand years, so I can wait a little longer," Hua Gengchen said confidently, which was also true.

Bai Ze nodded in agreement, "Then you should hurry back to the human realm to propose marriage. If you're too late, you'll have to bear the consequences. As for the things needed to activate your bloodline, I'll prepare them."

“Well, the matter in the demon realm hasn’t been resolved yet.” Both matters are important, but the matter in the demon realm is more urgent. Hua Gengchen made his choice without hesitation. “Steward Hua, please propose to Su Bai on my behalf and set a wedding date as soon as possible. I will rush back on the wedding day.” After a slight pause, Hua Gengchen added, “The betrothal gifts will be selected from warehouse number one hundred.”

"Yes." Hua Jueming solemnly replied, while Bai Ze, who was standing to the side, was stunned by Hua Gengchen's last words. It took him a long time to come back to his senses. When he tried to confirm with Hua Gengchen, the other end of the call had already ended.

Nudging Hua Jueming's shoulder, Bai Ze blinked and asked, as if seeking confirmation, "Did he just say Warehouse Number 100?"

Hua Jueming nodded, seemingly confused but impressed; his master had indeed said that.

Bai Ze paused for a moment, then slapped his thigh and shouted angrily, "That heartless scoundrel! I've done so many things for him and he never gave me anything from the warehouse. But now, to propose marriage, he's so generous as to open the warehouse. He's really... a woman without humanity!" Bai Ze thought of a phrase he had learned online, but after saying it, he realized it didn't sound right. Hua Gengchen wasn't even a person; where did his humanity come from?

Hua Jueming pretended not to hear Bai Ze's words, bowed to Bai Ze to express his gratitude, and then left. He needed to hurry back to prepare things to propose marriage on behalf of his master.

Seeing this, Bai Ze stomped his foot in exasperation. The master and servant were the same; they used each other and then threw each other away!

He paused slightly. Something about what he said didn't quite sound right.

It took Bai Ze a while to understand, and he became even more furious. It was all Hua Gengchen's fault, that snake had caused him to lose his mind and become incoherent.
