215: Discover the Son of Luck
Hearing this, Elder Jade Lotus rubbed Saintess Qinglian's small head and said with a doting smile, "Silly girl, I'll be content to see you grow up healthy and get married happily."
"No… Revered Master, you're not old at all. You're even younger and more beautiful than my mother. You became like this because you were poisoned by the Demonic Path Sect's Corrosive Poison when you saved me and my mother."
"Revered Master, I know there's no antidote for the Corrosive Poison, but rumor has it that there's a Youth-Preserving Pill in the cultivation world that can make people regain their youthful appearance. I'll definitely find it for you!" Saintess Qinglian said firmly.
"Alright, alright, I know you're filial. Hurry to Tianxia City and bid for that lotus seed. Remember, be careful when you're out and about!" Elder Jade Lotus instructed.
Saintess Qinglian threw herself into Elder Jade Lotus's embrace and choked out, "Revered Master, I'm leaving. Please take care of yourself!"
As her voice fell, she took the storage ring and quickly headed out of the Heavenly Dao Sect.
Watching Saintess Qinglian gradually disappear, Jade Lotus showed a worried expression.
She knew that since Tian Chenzi had already decided to marry Qinglian to Luo Wudao, he would definitely not give up just because of her opposition and would surely take coercive measures.
Perhaps, it might even trigger a large-scale internal conflict.
Even if she wanted Qinglian to stay by her side, it was impossible now. She didn't want Qinglian to be caught in the flames of war.
If Qinglian died because of it, how could she face her good sister's spirit in heaven?
If she hadn't promised her Revered Master that she would protect the Heavenly Dao Sect well, she would want to leave with Qinglian right now and never care about this decaying Heavenly Dao Sect again.
...
Saintess Qinglian reluctantly headed out of the Heavenly Dao Sect. As soon as she reached the Sect's entrance, she was stopped by two gate guards.
"Saintess, the Sect Master has ordered that without his command, you are not to step half a pace out of the Heavenly Dao Sect. Saintess, please return. Please don't make things difficult for us!" a guard bowed and said.
"What? How dare he restrict my freedom? Get out of my way!" Saintess Qinglian shouted angrily.
"Saintess, please return! Don't force us to act!"
"I'd like to see who dares to stop Saintess Qinglian!"
As soon as the words fell, a powerful pressure swept over from a distance. The two guards instantly felt immense pressure and knelt down.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"
Elder Jade Lotus landed in front of everyone and said coldly, "Qinglian, hurry and go. I'll guard here. I want to see who dares to chase you!"
"Yes! Revered Master! Take care!"
As her voice fell, she transformed into a green stream of light and flew towards Tianxia City.
...
"Revered Master, Tianxia City is not far ahead!" Gray Wu Chang bowed and said.
Qin Tian walked out of the cabin and asked, puzzled, "Old Grey, aren't we going to the Heavenly Dao Sect? Why are we in Tianxia City?"
"Young Master, you don't know, but Tianxia City is the main city of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and it's the closest to the Heavenly Dao Sect. We'll settle here first and gather information, which will make things easier."
Qin Tian nodded slightly, "Very good, then let's go down!"
As his voice fell, Qin Tian's mind moved, and he put the flying ship into his Small World. "Let's go. Remember to call me Young Master in front of others."
"Yes! Young Master."
Soon, Qin Tian strolled leisurely into Tianxia City, with Gray Wu Chang following closely behind him.
As soon as he entered the city, Qin Tian saw that Tianxia City was incredibly prosperous. Cultivators walking on the streets were endless, with the lowest cultivation reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, and those in the Returning Void Realm were everywhere.
Roadside stalls sold all kinds of Magic Treasures, Medicinal Pills, Materials, talismans, Formation Plates, and Magical Artifacts... everything imaginable, and the shops were dazzling.
Upon closer inspection, a stall owner selling Magical Artifacts had even reached the Early Stage of the Returning Void Realm.
"Holy crap!"
"This... this is truly 'Nascent Soul is not as good as a dog, Returning Void is everywhere'!" Qin Tian exclaimed in his heart.
"Old Grey, why are there so many Returning Void Realm powerhouses in Tianxia City? Do Returning Void Realm Cultivators also need to set up stalls to earn spirit crystals?" Qin Tian asked, puzzled.
"Young Master, you don't know, but Tianxia City is the Heavenly Dao Sect's most important source of income. Fighting is forbidden in this city, otherwise, you'll be killed by Tianxia City's enforcers. Because transactions are safe here, many Cultivators like to come here to buy and sell."
"At the same time, consumption in Tianxia City is also very high. Even buying a slightly secluded residence requires a lot of spirit crystals. It's not uncommon for some Returning Void Realm powerhouses to set up stalls to earn spirit crystals!" Gray Wu Chang explained.
Qin Tian nodded slightly. He had to admit that Tianxia City was the most prosperous city he had ever seen, far surpassing even the Imperial Capital of the Great Qin Dynasty.
In the Great Qin Dynasty, a Returning Void Realm Cultivator was at least an Elder of a Sect or a family head. How could they be reduced to setting up stalls to exchange for resources?
"Old Grey, you said fighting is forbidden here, so can Demonic Path Sect members also come to Tianxia City?" Qin Tian asked.
"Young Master, that's correct. As long as Demonic Path Sect members don't cause trouble in Tianxia City, Tianxia City's enforcers won't do anything to them, otherwise, wouldn't they be ruining their own reputation?"
"However, if they are high-ranking Demonic Path Sect members, they usually come to Tianxia City wearing masks to prevent being targeted by Heavenly Dao Sect members and intercepted outside the city."
Qin Tian nodded. Such rules were indeed good, no wonder Tianxia City could be so prosperous.
"Old Grey, first go to the largest inn in Tianxia City and book two of the best rooms. Tianxia City is so prosperous, Young Master wants to play for a few more days."
"Yes! Young Master, the best inn in Tianxia City is the Tianxia Inn. Please follow me!"
Qin Tian nodded and slowly followed Gray Wu Chang towards the Tianxia Inn.
Suddenly.
As he passed by the Tianxia Auction House, his body felt a strange agitation, as if something was attracting him, a deep longing.
"What the hell is going on?"
He had never felt this way before. Could it be that some treasure had appeared?
But that's not right, if a treasure appeared, the lapis lazuli bead should have prompted him, right? Now it was his body that was agitated, not the lapis lazuli bead.
He quickly stopped and looked closely. He saw a woman wearing a green long dress and a veil covering her face standing at the entrance of the Tianxia Auction House. Beside her was a handsome young man in a white robe, along with several guards.
Soon, he discovered that what was attracting him was this veiled woman.
"Old Grey, I've found something! Quick, follow me!"
"Yes! Young Master."
"Ding! Discovered a legendary Child of Destiny!"
Just as Qin Tian was about to step forward, he heard the System's prompt.
Hearing that a Child of Destiny had been found, Qin Tian was overjoyed.
The previous Children of Destiny had all been played to death by him. Now another Child of Destiny had appeared, truly a timely help!
"System, scan the Child of Destiny."
"Ding!"

"Ah! Hahahaha! Good, good, good. I didn't expect him to be the one who is going to marry the Saintess of the Heavenly Dao Sect. This time, there will be fun to be had!" Qin Tian laughed heartily in his mind.
Since you are the groom, then on your wedding day, I'll take care of the bridal chamber. Hehehe!
