The Engagement at Iron Bridge Village and the Exchange of Marriage Cards at Purple Moon Market
"It seems that the news brought by Zhiyu was correct: Han Dahai, the peak master of Zizhu Peak of Qingyuan Sect, wants to take a member of the Tang family as a disciple."
Han Dahai has only five disciples, but he hasn't taken on any new disciples for over twenty years, which suggests that Han Dahai is quite satisfied with that disciple from the Tang Household.
Since Tang Tiansong, the eldest son of the Tang Household, is Qi Refinement Refining cultivator, Han Dahai must want to take Tang Tiansong as his disciple.
"I just don't know how old Tang Tiansong is, or how powerful the Tang Household is now." Chu Shimo pondered for a few moments, smiled, and took out two Spirit Stone. "Since we are all from Gazing Dragon Lake, we should look out for each other."
These are two Spirit Stone from the Chu Household congratulate the Tang Household; please remember them.
The other two members of the Chu Household frowned immediately, but neither of them said anything more, because the head of the Chu Household Chu Wanyang, had instructed them: when traveling, follow Chu Shimo's arrangements.
The fact that the Chu Household offered a gift of money was something Tang Tiandong hadn't expected.
Without a second thought, Tang Tiandong immediately ordered his Spirit Stone: "If we don't accept the gift money, it will be a disgrace to the Chu Household."
Seeing that the Chu Household had given Spirit Stone as a gift, some of the Chu Household's supporting Lineage also gave gifts to the Tang Household: however, each family gave exactly two Spirit Stone...
"Uncle An, let's pack up and leave."
As for the reason, we'll talk about it on the way back..."Chu Shimo glanced at Wu Juexia in the distance and smiled.
Seeing the Chu Household packing up their stall, Tang Tiandong immediately came over and gave them two Spirit Stone stones as a gift. "It's only right to reciprocate..."
After counting the Spirit Stone given by the Chu Household Lineage's supporters, Tang Tiandong found there were actually twenty-eight, and he smiled knowingly.
"Congratulations Wu Juexia the Wu Household and the Tang Household."
"This is a gift from the Wu Household, please accept it." Wu Juexia took out ten Spirit Stone, cupped his hands in a gesture of respect.
Tang Tiandong immediately stood up to return the greeting and accepted the Spirit Stone.
"Brother Tang is indeed remarkable; he actually managed to persuade the Chu Household to leave on their own initiative."
Juexia was truly impressed. "Wu Juexia smiled and put up a soundproof barrier."
"You are still a young hero. At only sixteen years old, you have already reached the Meridian Opening Fifth Layer and the Upper Yin Stage cultivation." Tang Tiandong returned the compliment.
Wu Juexia away the soundproof cover. "No, no, my Wu Household is a large and powerful family."
My Lineage has given me a tremendous amount of resources, but I am now sixteen years old and have only Meridian Opening Fifth Layer cultivation. I am truly ashamed.
I am no match for Brother Tang. Gazing Dragon Lake is a barren desert, stretching for thousands of miles, and lacking in Spiritual Qi.
Brother Tang is only eighteen years old, yet he has already reached the Meridian Opening Fourth Layer stage and Qi-Bearing Stage. His cultivation has advanced at an astonishing speed.
I believe the Tang Household will definitely prosper in the future, and within a hundred years, they will be able to rival my Wu Household.
"Not at all, our Tang Household has only just entered the path of cultivation, and can only look up to the Wu Household, a Aristocratic Clan of extraordinary cultivators."
"I'm sure that within a hundred years, the Wu Household will produce several Heavenly Gate True Person and become a Celestial Abode." Tang Tiandong said earnestly.
Tang Tiandong and Wu Juexia were praising each other, leaving twelve-year-old Yang Musheng looking helpless. "If Father could stop indulging in frivolous pursuits, our Yang Household would surely break free from the Yun Household's oppression and control. Perhaps, within a hundred years, a Heavenly Gate True Person would emerge..."
... With the Wu Household taking the lead, within a short time, dozens of Lineage had given gifts to the Tang Household.
Although the vast majority of people only received two Spirit Stone, there were just too many people.
Tang Tiandong counted the Spirit Stone, went to Wu Qi to get the escort ticket, and happily headed west towards Dangwu Village: "My brother has been so worried about the Spirit Stone for the past year or so."
She's only twenty-one years old, but she already has a few gray hairs.
Tang Tiandong wanted to tell Tang Tiansong the good news as soon as possible: he had received a total of 216 Spirit Stone from his stall at Golden Crow Square.
With these 216 Spirit Stone, the 21 young cultivators of the Tang Household have just embarked on the path of cultivation will surely develop a certain level of combat strength within the next year or two.
With these twenty-one cultivators as a foundation, plus the Tang Household siblings, the Tang Household will surely rank among the top thirty in terms of overall strength among the hundred immortal cultivation Lineage in Gazing Dragon Lake within fifty years.
If the Tang Household seizes the great fortuitous opportunity that will arrive in the next few years, perhaps within fifty years, the Tang Household will be among the top ten...
... On the ninth day of the tenth month of the year 4041 in the new Immortal Calendar, the five villages under the jurisdiction of the Tang Household — Willow Bay Village Miao Household Stronghold, Dangwu Village Eight Springs Village, He Household Hamlet —with a total of 5,856 households, all decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations to celebrate Tang Tiansong's engagement.
Tang Tiansong and Yu Wei received the worship and congratulations of more than 30,000 people.
Although the vast majority of the cultivation Lineage who gave monetary gifts did not send anyone to the banquet,
However, the Tang Household had gained some fame in Gazing Dragon Lake, which spanned thousands of miles.
At least, when the Tang Household later went to Huai'an City to buy and sell goods, one in ten people already knew the name of the Tang Household at the northern foot of Gazing Dragon Lake.
The Earth Flood Dragon hiding in the Mystic Spoon was also quite satisfied: if things continued like this, perhaps in less than thirty years, Tang Tiansong would be able to Foundation Establishment, and he would be able to seize Tang Tiansong's body...
... As time passed, on the second day of the second month of the new Celestial Calendar year 4042, Tang Tiansong and Tang Tiandong split up and went about their own business.
The first thing Tang Tiansong did, as a representative of the parents, was to go to Iron Bridge Village to set a wedding date for Tang Jincan and the second daughter of the Ye Household.
That's right. Five years ago, Tang Tiansong broke off his engagement with Ye Hailiang's second daughter. Later, it's highly likely that the Ye Household saw the Tang Household's Tang Household and wanted to establish a marriage alliance with them. However, Tang Tiansong didn't think highly of the Ye Household Ye Household and didn't want to form a marriage alliance with them.
Tang Tiansong's father had two brothers, the elder Tang Yuan and the younger Tang Xiao. Tang Xiao had three sons: Tang Miao, Tang Jincan, and Tang Jin Feng.
So Ye Hailiang from Iron Bridge Village, as a second choice, decided to marry his second daughter to Tang Jincan.
Tang Xingdou and his siblings, including Tang Tiansong, all opposed the marriage, but Tang Jincan was, after all, only Tang Tiansong's cousin.
In addition, Tang Jincan pleaded with Tang Tiansong's mother and grandmother every day, so Tang Tiansong had no choice but to stop interfering.
However, when it came to the engagement, Ye Hailiang insisted that Tang Tiansong must represent the parents.
Unable to resist Tang Jincan's persistent pleas, and not wanting to put his mother in a difficult position, Tang Tiansong had no choice but to make a trip to Iron Bridge Village himself.
The second thing is that after the wedding date for Tang Jincan and the two daughters of the Ye Household is set in Iron Bridge Village, Tang Tiansong will take Yu Wei to Huai'an City in Pingyang Commandery.
The purpose of going to Huai'an City was twofold: first, to purchase and order some Cultivation Method, weapons, and elixirs for the more than twenty cultivators of the Tang Household to use in their cultivation.
Secondly, we will purchase some local specialties and furniture from the Southern Province for use on the sixth day of the ninth lunar month, the day of our wedding.
After all, Yu Wei came from Southern Province, so buying some Southern Province items could alleviate some of Yu Wei homesickness.
As for Tang Tiandong, he was going to Purple Moon Market in Gazing Dragon Lake Center.
Tang Tiandong went to Purple Moon Market for two reasons. First, he wanted to see if he could buy some satisfactory weapons and elixirs.
Of course, they were also there hoping to find a bargain.
Last year, Tang Tiansong received 216 Spirit Stone as a wedding gift at his engagement banquet, which was indeed a huge sum of money, but it didn't last long at all.
The Tang Household siblings didn't use a single one of the more than two hundred Spirit Stone; instead, they used them all to buy resources for the twenty-odd cultivators in the Tang Household, meaning each person received less than ten Spirit Stone on average.
Tang Tiansong calculated that for an ordinary person with average Aperture Opener to reach the Meridian Opening Third Layer and Thoroughfare Vessel Spirituality Realm, it would take a long time.
Leaving aside the cultivation time and the abundance of Spiritual Qi in the cave abode, just considering the resources such as Cultivation Method, pills, and weapons, it would cost at least one hundred Spirit Stone.
Therefore, without the Cultivation Method, Spiritual Qi, Spirit Stone, and other resources provided by Tang Yuan, the Tang Household siblings could not have acquired the strength to fight in just five years.
Of course, without the [Aperture-Opening Pill] given to them by Qin Earth Flood Dragon in the Mystic Spoon, none of the Tang Household siblings could cultivate immortality...
Spirit Stone were never enough, so Tang Tiandong thought he should visit Purple Moon Market more often to see if he could find some bargains and buy some good quality items at low prices.
Of course, another task, and the main purpose, of Tang Tiandong's trip to Purple Moon Market today was to exchange wedding invitations with Tong Lingling.
That's right, Tang Tiandong and Tong Lingling from the Tong Household on the southern Gazing Dragon Lake are engaged...
