Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Seeing the interested smile on Luo Chen’s face, Sima Huiniang hesitated to ask.

“Inappropriate?”

Luo Chen laughed heartily.

“For the Qin Flower River Li Family, there’s certainly nothing inappropriate.”

“Ling Jun is my disciple and controls a Hall. Being related to him by marriage means being deeply tied to me, Luo Chen.”

“So even without their ancestor around, other forces wouldn’t dare make a move out of respect for me.”

Sima Huiniang agreed wholeheartedly.

Indeed, the other party was considering this aspect.

However, why the president was showing that expression…

As she was contemplating, Luo Chen suddenly changed the topic.

“But, they’re dreaming!”

“Ling Jun is only at Fifth Level Qi Refinement Stage and does not have the best talent. Most people would see him as someone who has no hope for Foundation Establishment.”

“Such a marriage alliance candidate is absolutely no threat to the Li Family, yet they can take advantage of the momentum of my Luo Tian Creed.”

“As if such a wonderful thing could exist?”

Sima Huiniang was stunned, but then suddenly realized.

She only saw how much importance the other party attached to the marriage alliance, with a Seventh Level Qi Refinement Foundation Establishment Cultivator granddaughter marrying Qu Lingjun, who was only Fifth Level Qi Refinement.

However, who could say they weren’t trying to ensure the lowly Qu Lingjun doesn’t overstep by meddling too much in Li Family affairs through his status as a son-in-law?

Just thinking about it this way made Sima Huiniang’s face show a sudden realization.

“President, you’re right!”

“So, should we reject this marriage proposal?”

“Reject?” Luo Chen shook his head, “Why reject it!”

Since the other party has thrown out the bait, he sees no reason why he shouldn’t bite.

The capability of the Qin Flower River Li Family couldn’t possibly reel him in!

Instead, using this opportunity, he might even have a chance to pull the Li Family into some deep waters.

“Offer them two additional marriage candidates to choose from!”

“Which two?”

Luo Chen glanced at Sima Huiniang and spat out two names.

Sima Xian!

Yuan Dongsheng!

Hearing her brother’s name made Sima Huiniang a bit caught off guard.

But after careful consideration, it seemed quite reasonable.

Sima Xian himself was high-levelled and held actual power in the Battle Hall.

In the absence of Wang Yuan, Sima Xian was the nominal leader of the Battle Hall. He was qualified as a marriage candidate.

Most importantly, he was the elder brother of the president of the Luo Tian Creed!

The weight of this was only slightly less than Luo Chen’s disciple.

As for Yuan Dongsheng?

Presumably, it was Luo Chen who added him to the list to fulfill Granny Yuan’s wishes.

But it’s most likely that the Li Family won’t choose Yuan Dongsheng, after all, he’s just a Spirit Plant Elder from the Medicine Hall.

So, the main marriage candidate is her own brother, Sima Xian.

But what about her brother’s Ninth Level Qi Refinement?

“Would they agree?”

Facing this question,

Luo Chen revealed a grin, “They have no choice but to agree. They’re the ones who proposed the marriage alliance, so this has to happen!”

Sima Huiniang’s eyes lit up, she vaguely understood Luo Chen’s thoughts.

She bowed respectfully.

“Then, I’ll take care of this matter!”

“I will definitely make you satisfied!”

After Sima Huiniang left, Luo Chen couldn’t help but smack his lips.

As the strength of the Luo Tian Creed grows, these problems will inevitably arise.

Although it seems to contradict the peaceful image of an immortal cultivator.

But in reality, where there are people, there are power struggles.

When he was unknown, nobody cared.

But now, with the backing of Ice Castle and three Foundation Establishment cultivators in the family, there are many who fear him, and naturally, many who are envious and try to curry favor.

He doesn’t mind these things.

On the contrary, as long as they are handled properly, the benefits they bring could be numerous.

However, these benefits are not immediately visible and would take at least several years or even decades to bear fruit.

But now, there were indeed benefits that could help him directly.

He flicked his wrist, and a storage bag landed in his hand.

Wang Haichao’s storage bag!

Previously, Luo Chen had four Foundation Establishment cultivator’s storage bags on hand, apart from his own.

Duan Qiankun, Huo Hu, Tu Shan, Wang Haichao.

The first two had been painstakingly unlocked by him over time, and the benefits had indeed been considerable.

In this process, Luo Chen had also gained an initial understanding of prohibitions, apart from the visible resources.

As a result, not long after unlocking Huo Hu’s storage bag, he easily opened Tu Shan’s storage bag.

After all, it was just a rogue cultivator’s storage bag, with only some crude spirit power imprints on it!

If it wasn’t for the urgency of preparing a Foundation Establishment gift for Wang Yuan, he could have broken the prohibition in one go after unlocking Duan Qiankun’s bag.

Upon unlocking the bag, Tu Shan’s legacy didn’t disappoint him.

Poor!

Very poor!

There were only over seven thousand Spirit Stones in cash. All other random resources added up didn’t even total ten thousand.

Such poverty was shameful for a True Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

No wonder he wasn’t able to compete with Luo Chen for the “Cleanse Origin Pill Formula” at the Huo Family auction.

In reality, this was the norm for ordinary rogue Foundation Establishment cultivators.

They had spent their entire fortune on establishing their foundation.

After Foundation Establishment, if they lacked any particular skill, they often had to serve as tributes to some powers or join certain forces to sell their lives.

Only thus could their cultivation continue.

Those who are stronger, with greater foresight, would establish their own forces, gather resources, like Mi Shuhua, Wang Haichao, and others.

Luo Chen was also in this category.

Additionally, some rogue Foundation Establishment cultivators, aware that they have no hope in the Great Dao Path, would simply give up.
