Qi Yuan's network of contacts in Heaven was very extensive, and most of the Heaven's Immortals were willing to make friends with him. What's more, his cultivation status has risen so high, and of course he is even more sought after by the Heaven's Immortals.
Therefore, he was very busy in the next period of time. He spent the whole day either attending to the banquets hosted by various gods or gods, or discussing mysteries with some profound immortals and gods, and exchanging the mysteries of Taoism.
Several months passed in this way before I finally felt relaxed.
But before he could rest for two days, he received an invitation from Qinglong Xingjun Deng Jiugong, inviting him to be a guest at Qinglong Xingjun's mansion.
Qi Yuan was a little strange. He had drank with Deng Jiugong twice some time ago, and later met Deng Jiugong in other Xingjun mansions. Why did he invite him again now?
However, after all, this is his apprentice's father, and he had some friendship with him at the beginning, so of course it would be hard to offend him.
So Qi Yuan agreed to the matter and agreed to go to the banquet.
When he arrived at Qinglong Xingjun's residence the next day, he realized that he was not the only one who came, but also the two named disciples he had accepted back then, Five Ghost Star Lord Deng Xiu and Beatou Star Lord Tai Luan.
Although Deng Xiu and Tailuan are now Xingjun, they are even more respectful to Qi Yuan.
Not only is their master's Taoism becoming more advanced and his status in Heaven more respected, but the most important thing is that he uses the name of Qi Yuan's disciples to make them feel at home in Heaven, and he is also very popular among the star kings in Dou Mansion.
good.
The Jie Jiao gods did not look down on them at all because they were not too strong. Instead, they regarded them as members of the Jie Jiao and gave them considerable care.
With the warm compliments of several Xingjuns, Qi Yuan was welcomed into the mansion, and after being entertained, Deng Jiugong invited Qi Yuan to take a walk in the garden of the mansion.
"Xingjun, if you have something to say, you might as well speak up."
Qi Yuan had already noticed during the dinner that Deng Jiugong was hesitant to speak. At this time, there was no one else in the garden except them, so he smiled and said: "You and I have known each other for a long time. Besides, I am also Chanyu's master.
If you are not an outsider, why are you so secretive?
But if you encounter any difficulties, just tell them and I won’t stand idly by if I can help you solve them.”
"well……"
Deng Jiugong sighed softly and said, "It's not that I'm in trouble, but I have a private matter that I want to ask the Lord Zao."
"oh?"
Qi Yuan was a little surprised when he heard this: "What private matter?"
"That's right."
Deng Jiugong hesitated for a moment and then said: "Zao Lord also knows that I only have two children, Xiu'er and Chanyu. When I was in charge of Sanshanguan, the two children were still young, so they were not married.
Later, before I could arrange a marriage for them, I was ordered to conquer Xiqi. My son also followed me on the list of gods, so this child did not give birth to any heirs.
Now it has been over a thousand years since I became a god. Although I have become a god and it doesn't matter even if I don't have any descendants to offer incense to me, I still can't let it go. I want to leave a son and a half to my Deng family to continue the bloodline inheritance.
"
"hehe……"
Qi Yuan suddenly laughed when he heard this: "I thought you had encountered some trouble, but it turns out you are worried about it!"
He chuckled twice, and then asked: "But which girl Deng Xiu fell in love with, please tell me.
If that woman is also in love with Deng Xiu, I will find a way to make their marriage come true."
"Kitchen Lord is joking. The rules of heaven are strict and gods are not allowed to fall in love. My son does not dare to break it easily."
Deng Jiugong waved his hands repeatedly.
He only had one son, and he did not dare to send his son to a prison to receive discipline.
"It doesn't matter. Although the rules of heaven are strict, there are still ways to avoid them."
Qi Yuan said with a smile: "I can ask Uncle Jin Ling to help and let Deng Xiu and the woman go down to earth to reincarnate and undergo tribulations. In that way, they can be husband and wife for the rest of their lives and give you several grandchildren.
When they die in the mortal world, their fate will naturally be fulfilled, and they can return to heaven and continue to be gods. However, if you want to get close to each other on weekdays, it is best not to be discovered."
"Well……"
Deng Jiugong was a little stunned.
Is this still possible?
He didn't expect Qi Yuan to be so cunning and come up with such a crazy idea in the blink of an eye.
But soon he gave a wry smile: "Zao Jun misunderstood, I didn't want to find a marriage for my son.
Besides, he is now a god and has no flesh and blood body. Even if he is reincarnated and marries another woman in the mortal world, the remaining children will not be of my Deng family’s blood, right?
If you are reincarnated into a family with another surname, you still may not know whether your surname will be Zhang or Wang!"
Qi Yuan was amused by his words, but reincarnation is really difficult to control, so he stopped making random ideas, and asked strangely: "If you are not proposing marriage to Deng Xiu, do you mean that you want to marry me?"
Is it possible to propose a marriage to Chanyu?"
Deng Jiugong nodded: "I have exactly what I mean."
Speaking of this, Deng Jiugong smoothed his long beard and said helplessly: "Now in my Deng family, Chanyu is the only one who is doing well, so I want to find a Taoist companion for her. When the time comes, she will have a child and adopt her."
Just give me one of the Deng family members so that my Deng family bloodline can continue."
"this……"
Qi Yuan frowned slightly.
There is nothing wrong with what Deng Jiugong said. The human race values bloodline inheritance. Even if Deng Jiugong becomes a god, he does not want to cut off his descendants. It is normal to have such thoughts.
However, Deng Chanyu has a special status and is well versed in all aspects of Emei's heritage. If she really wants to marry outside, there will be many things involved.
However, although Deng Chanyu was his disciple, she was also the daughter of Deng Jiugong. Her father had already spoken, so it was not easy for him to stop her.
Qi Yuan pondered for a moment, then said after careful consideration: "Logically speaking, you are Chanyu's father, so it is reasonable for you to marry her.
It's just that she is now accomplished in cultivation and is still my second disciple and the head of the female disciples of the Emei Sword Sect. She can't just find a marriage like she did in ordinary times.
Chanyu really wants to get married, and there are many things to worry about, so please don't propose marriage to her randomly, lest it ruin her practice."
"Don't worry, Lord Zao, I'm not an ignorant person, and of course I won't act recklessly."
Deng Jiugong smiled and said: "Actually, the marriage I want to propose to my little girl is not from an outsider. It is Master Miaoyi, the eldest disciple of Lord Zao."
"Um?"
Qi Yuan was stunned: "Qi Yi? Do you want Chanyu to marry Qi Yi?"
This was greatly beyond his expectation.
I never expected that Deng Jiugong would actually set his sights on Qi Yi.
However, if these two people become a Taoist couple, it will indeed reduce a lot of troubles.
Deng Jiugong chuckled: "Three hundred years ago, when the disciples of Lord Zao came to heaven to pay homage to Lord Doumu Yuan, I was influenced by my daughter and met the disciples of Lord Zao.
Especially Master Miaoyi, he is really a dragon and a phoenix among men, a genius in heaven, and he has such great Taoist cultivation at such a young age, which is extremely admirable.
The so-called wise daughter is like a father, Chanyu's mother passed away early, so I raised this girl with my own hands. Although her thoughts are deeply hidden, how can she hide them from my eyes."
"Is this happening? Why didn't I see it?"
When Qi Yuan heard this, he was a little surprised at first, but then the fire of gossip ignited in his heart, and he quickly asked: "Later, did they go behind my back... Ahem, that, I mean, they had
There is no drama of a private life-long arrangement?"
Deng Jiugong was speechless.
Is there anyone like you who is a master?
After a while, he coughed lightly and said: "Zao Lord has overthought it. Although my daughter has a heroic temperament, she is embarrassed to be too proactive when it comes to matters between men and women, so she has never shown anything special.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to hide it from Lord Zao.”
Qi Yuan nodded in agreement. Looking back on the past, although Chanyu seemed more gentle when treating Qi Yi, it would not cause other people to have random thoughts, because Qi Yi, as his first disciple, has always taken care of his fellow juniors, so
The junior brothers and sisters below admire this senior brother very much.
Even if Deng Chanyu showed some differences, it would be easy for people to think that she was the same as other students and would not think too much about it.
Deng Jiugong continued: "As for the other disciple, I don't know if he is aware of it, but if Chanyu continues to like her secretly, there is no guarantee when there will be a result.
As time goes by, I am afraid that there will be a flaw in her Taoist heart, and if some demon takes the opportunity to sneak attack, big problems will occur if she is not careful."
Speaking of this, Deng Jiugong shook his head and sighed: "Although after becoming a god, you can live forever and don't have the pain of birth, old age, illness, and death, I am a mortal after all. At this age, I instinctively want to enjoy having fun with my grandchildren."
I have so much fun that I rashly mentioned this matter to Mr. Zao. I wonder if Mr. Zao is willing to fulfill my wish?"
After finishing his words, he showed a pleading look in his eyes and bowed towards Qi Yuan.
"Xingjun doesn't need to be like this."
Qi Yuan gently supported him and said with a smile: "I won't hide it from you, if you want Chanyu to marry outside, I will really have some trouble here, but marrying a disciple of the sect will be much more convenient.
But after all, this is a love affair between children, so we should not be rash. It is better to wait until I go back to ask about the situation. If Chanyu really has her heart, and Qi Yi also has this intention, I will naturally not stop her.
But if they don’t want to, this forceful melon won’t be sweet either, so it’s up to them to see what they want.”
"It should be so."
Deng Jiugong nodded repeatedly.
But we should ask Qi Yi for his opinion. Otherwise, if we really force two people who are not together to live together, they will only harm themselves.
He specifically mentioned it to Qi Yuan today because he just wanted a result. If Qi Yi was unwilling, he would just take the opportunity to cut off his daughter's thoughts, so as not to leave a knot in his heart in the future and delay his own path.
Qi Yuan held his chin with one hand, thinking deeply.
In fact, he treats Qi Yi like a son, and of course he also hopes that Qi Yi can find a Taoist companion, one more companion in his soul, and one more person who can take care of him in the future, so as not to worry himself.
Deng Chanyu was his second disciple, and she knew her very well. She was a very good woman in terms of temperament and Taoist cultivation. If the two of them really wanted to become a Taoist couple, it would be a good thing.
It seems that after going back, I want to test whether there is affection in the two people's hearts.
Well, even if not, he can still create some opportunities for the two of them. A man and a woman have been together for a long time, and it is impossible not to have some feelings. What's more, the other two are very good men and women.
Thinking of this, Qi Yuan couldn't help but evoke an inexplicable smile.
It's been a long time since I've done anything bad, so why not take this opportunity to tease the two apprentices? Just think of it as being in seclusion for so long, adding a little spice to the once boring life.
At that moment, he carefully asked Deng Jiugong about his thoughts about his second apprentice, and confirmed that Deng Chanyu did have some affection for Qi Yi.
Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to find out that neither of them had these thoughts, but he randomly created opportunities for them to be together.
The two people conspired for a long time in the garden of Xingjun Mansion before finalizing the matter. Qi Yuan went back to control it in secret. Once it was confirmed that the two of them had a liking for each other, he would help them as soon as possible and let them form a Taoist couple.
Qi Yuan felt that this matter should be done sooner rather than later. If it were delayed for thousands of years, there would be a lot of inconvenience if two people could accomplish something good.
Because another catastrophe may come at that time. If Deng Chanyu happened to be pregnant or gave birth to a child who needed care, it would definitely affect their fight against the catastrophe.
Qi Yuan took this matter to heart, and after discussing the matter, he left.
When Qi Yi and Deng Chanyu really become a family in the future, they will inevitably come to nag the Azure Dragon Star Lord, um, do they need to prepare more gifts?
Qi Yuan suddenly thought that once Qi started a family, he would definitely need to take care of it, so the betrothal gift must be provided by his elder, who is like a teacher and a father.
But Deng Chanyu is also his apprentice, so he can't favor one over the other. When she gets married, will he still have to pay a dowry?
Thinking of this, Qi Yuan suddenly felt very depressed.
Why didn't I think it would be like this before?
It seems that his private treasure house is about to bleed.
However, it seems that he has been playing with filling various treasures in the Thunder Cauldron of Creation over the years, and he has not taken out many things. Besides, he is rich and will not lose his family fortune just because his apprentice gets married.
