That's not right!
Before she left, Zhao Family Village was just an ordinary mortal village.
At most, it was a bit richer than other villages, but there wasn't that much of a difference!
"Wow, Third Sister, Third Sister, look quickly! There are monsters and humans walking together over there!"
The Fourth Princess, dressed in a jade green long skirt, pointed at the villagers not far away, also exclaiming in surprise.
Humans weren't unusual, and neither were monsters.
But a scene of humans and monsters walking together and getting along harmoniously was very rare.
Not to mention, the sight of monsters working for humans was something unheard of.
Most importantly, no one saw any reluctance on the monsters' faces.
"Sixth Sister, don't run around. Oh, look, isn't that Fifth Sister!"
The Third Princess, Zhang Tianrong, looked at Zhang Tianxian, who was calmly directing people in the crowd, and called out in surprise.
Hearing the Third Princess's words, Zhang Tianyu suddenly turned her head, her eyes lighting up.
Holding hands with the Sixth Princess, Zhang Tianqing, she ran towards Zhang Tianxian.
"Ah, Fifth Sister, Fifth Sister, I'm back!"
"Fifth Sister, I've already asked Tai Bai Jin Xing to send the message to Wei Zheng."
Zhang Tianxian was busy filling out transaction contracts while directing the monsters to work.
Although the Incense and Fire transactions had been ongoing for several days.
The villagers of Zhao Family Village and all the river monsters were completely illiterate.
This caused Zhang Tianxian's workload to increase significantly.
She now wished she could split herself in two.
Zhang Tianxian regretted not learning the clone technique properly back then.
Seeing Zhang Tianyu return with four sisters, she was overjoyed.
"Sixth Sister, Seventh Sister, and Third Sister, Fourth Sister, you've all come! That's great.
Quick, Seventh Sister, go to the fields and supervise those river monsters. If any of them aren't working properly, draw a cross next to them.
Sixth Sister, go to the riverbank and watch the river monsters dig mud. Be sure to pay attention and confirm the weight.
Third Sister, come help me organize these contracts; they need to be archived.
Fourth Sister, go check in the village. Why hasn't today's meal been delivered yet? Are they trying to starve us to death!"
The four princesses, who had just descended to the mortal realm, were thus vaguely assigned various tasks by Zhang Tianxian.
One hadn't even recovered from the shock before she was put to work.
For a moment, a single question arose in the hearts of the four princesses:
Who am I?
Where am I?
What am I doing?
"Third Sister, Fourth Sister, why did Sixth Sister come down too?
No wonder Tianyu took so long to return!"
Inside Zhao Family Village, Zhang Tianshou's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and her brow furrowed slightly.
Although the Seven Fairy Maidens liked to go down to the mortal realm to play, they didn't all come down at once.
Instead, they came down in two groups to play.
The others stayed in heaven to cover for their sisters who had gone down.
Now, everyone except the Second Princess had run down.
"Huh, Tianshou, did you succeed in your breakthrough?"
Chen Fan, holding a stack of papers and drawing on them, looked up and suddenly saw Zhang Tianshou emerge from a meditation chamber built of large stones.
This secluded meditation chamber was built by Chen Fan and Zhang Tianshou using river monsters.
A few days ago, Zhang Tianshou had said she was going into seclusion for a breakthrough, so this chamber was hastily constructed.
Don't let this meditation chamber's simplicity fool you; its defensive capabilities were not weak at all.
Although Zhang Tianshou's talent for formations wasn't high, she had many treasures.
She directly used nine Low-grade Spirit Treasures as the foundation to set up the Basic Nine Palaces Array.
Then, under Chen Fan's speechless gaze, she took the Merit Pot to serve as the array's core.
Even a typical Mystic Immortal would be bewildered upon seeing this formation.
"Naturally, Tianshou thanks Mister for your assistance!"
Zhang Tianshou's aura fluctuated slightly, her eyes exceptionally bright.
A trace of law energy surged within Zhang Tianshou, adding a touch of etherealness to her presence.
Chen Fan didn't understand cultivation realms.
"That's not right, don't you need to stabilize your cultivation after breaking through?"
"Stabilize my cultivation? Mister understands Immortal Path cultivation too.
That is needed, but I have Spirit Stabilizing Pills; one pill will stabilize it!"
Zhang Tianshou's inhumanly casual remark made Chen Fan's mouth twitch.
As expected of a direct descendant from a prominent family; the conditions are certainly favorable.
Chen Fan, having his own thoughts about cultivators, probed cautiously.
"Tianshou, are there any conditions to join your sect?"
"Join my sect?"
Zhang Tianshou gave Chen Fan a strange look, her eyelids twitching.
If Chen Fan were to join the Heavenly Emperor's sect, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of Huoyun Cave would surely throw a fit.
"What, is it not possible!"
Chen Fan's expression darkened, sighing helplessly in his heart.
Cultivating and martial arts both require talent.
It was just that Chen Fan hadn't encountered cultivators before, so he still held a sliver of hope.
Now, seeing Zhang Tianshou's silence, he understood that he was likely destined to have no connection with cultivation.
"It's not that, it's just that Mister is not suitable to join my sect!"
Zhang Tianshou lowered her head slightly, her cheeks instantly flushing red as she became conflicted.
Does Mister want to cultivate to be with me forever? Could my fifth sister's guess be true? But Mister is walking the path of a Great Human Sage. In this life, before ascending to Huoyun Cave, he must achieve extraordinary things as a Mortal. If I were to be with Mister... what about the Heavenly Mandate!
Great Human Sages practice their own paths and gain the attention of the Human Dao.
However, since ancient times, the Heavenly Dao has not allowed Human Emperors to embark on the path of cultivation.
This resulted in Great Human Sages, who received the attention of the Human Dao, being unable to become Immortals or Gods before proving their Dao.
Chen Fan, seeing Zhang Tianshou's complexion shift from red to white, was startled.
"Tianshou, don't scare me, have you gone mad from cultivation?"
Saying this, Chen Fan turned and ran out, preparing to call Zhang Tianxian back to take a look.
Zhang Tianshou finally snapped back to reality. She moved and grabbed Chen Fan's hand, explaining.
"Mister, I'm fine, but if Mister wants to cultivate, Tianshou can teach you!"
At that moment, Madam Zhou, who happened to be passing by Chen Fan's door, saw the two entangled together.
Instantly, Madam Zhou frowned and fell into thought.
"They're already so affectionate in broad daylight, and the First Madam hasn't come out these past two days.
Could these two have already... Oh dear, premarital pregnancy is not allowed!
No, I must tell the old man quickly and have him help Xiao Fan propose marriage."
Madam Zhou suddenly slapped her thigh and hurried towards the village entrance.
