"Don't overthink it. Given his status, even if you married him, you couldn't possibly become his principal wife." Xuan Kongzi had lived for a long time and knew a thing or two about the rules and customs of the Dou God Clans.
The Dou God Clans had always been incomparably proud. Even if Shi Kang truly had such intentions, no matter how outstanding his own disciple was, she could never take the position of principal wife.
Xuan Kongzi also knew his quirky disciple well. She was a complete pill-refining fanatic. If someone could provide her with enough Medicinal Herbs and pill recipes, she would definitely agree without hesitation.
Cao Ying secretly pondered, If they can give me enough Medicinal Herbs and pill recipes, then perhaps it wouldn't be so bad... What is love compared to pill refinement?
Though she thought so inwardly, she could not say it aloud.
Filled with curiosity, Cao Ying followed her teacher to the Grand Hall.
The moment she arrived, she eagerly swept her gaze around and immediately fixed her eyes on Shi Kang.
Shi Kang's appearance was simply too outstanding. Sword-like brows, starry eyes, and a high, straight nose—he was so handsome that one could hardly look away. His bearing was even nobler, carrying an indescribable air of grandeur that instantly drew Cao Ying's attention.
Cao Ying thought, Is he the one who wants to see me? He's this handsome... If he can provide me with Medicinal Herbs and pill recipes, then it wouldn't be impossible...
At the same time, Shi Kang began assessing Cao Ying beside Xuan Kongzi.
Mm, stunningly beautiful. Her temperament was cool yet seductive, while her figure was curvaceous and exquisitely shaped. Every step she took seemed to carry a unique rhythm.
No wonder she was called the Cao Family Enchantress.
