1: My sister is marrying in my place? That would be wonderful!

Tiansheng Academy.

"Marry a wife?"

Chu Feng dropped the family letter in his hand, feeling quite helpless.

This was a letter from his father; the wedding date was approaching, and he was to return to the family as soon as possible to prepare to marry the Second Miss of the Su Family, an engagement that had been set long ago between the two families.

"Qi Refining First Level!"

Five years ago, he participated in the New Student Enrollment Assembly of Tiansheng Academy, full of ambition!

Who would have thought that he would be detected with a Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root and immediately assigned to be a Utility Disciple.

Endless chopping of firewood, endless carrying of water, endless sweeping of fallen leaves, and Wang Fugui deducting his monthly stipend.

"I was a beast of burden in my previous life, and I'm still a beast of burden after transmigrating. Didn't I transmigrate for nothing?"

He had been transmigrated into this cultivation world for twenty years, originally thinking he was the Son of Destiny, but he turned out to be just a nobody.

Now, with the wedding date approaching, he was still only at the Qi Refining First Level.

Tomorrow was the entrance examination for Servant Disciples; if he ranked last again, he wouldn't even be able to be a Utility Disciple.

Without the identity of a Tiansheng Academy disciple, how could he go to the Su Family to welcome his bride?

Just then, a golden light fell from the sky, entering Chu Feng's Sea of Consciousness.

Chu Feng trembled. A golden finger?

"Five years! Five years! Do you know how I've lived these five years!"

A golden-bound book appeared in his Sea of Consciousness, titled red dust immortal fate record.

As long as he increased the favorability of the Fated Person in the red dust immortal fate record, he would receive a rebate for everything the Fated Person improved upon.

The amount of the rebate was directly linked to the Fated Person's favorability towards him: 10% favorability, one-time rebate; 20% favorability, double rebate... 100% favorability, ten-time rebate!

Rebate!

Multiplied returns!

By binding a Fated Person, he could become stronger by doing nothing!

"Finally, I can... lie flat!"

However, Chu Feng soon frowned again.

"Where do I find a Fated Person?"

Every page in the book was blank, like a wordless heavenly scripture. How was he supposed to find one?

Furthermore, with his current conditions, even if he found a Fated Person, they probably wouldn't think highly of him.

The next moment, the red dust immortal fate record suddenly flipped, finally stopping on the third page.

At the same time, a portrait of a woman appeared on the third page, with three words displayed beside it: Su Qingqiu.

"Su Qingqiu... that name sounds so familiar."

Chu Feng's peripheral vision caught sight of the family letter in his hand, and he immediately remembered this person.

"Su Qingya's half-sister—Su Qingqiu!"

"[Activated red dust immortal fate record, rewarded with one drop of Phoenix Essence Blood!]"

"It's that direct!"

Chu Feng found a drop of essence blood radiating scorching heat in the red dust immortal fate record; clearly, the book also had a storage function.

Phoenixes had long been extinct, and Phoenix Essence Blood was a rare treasure, hard to come by even in ten thousand years. This single drop of essence blood could allow a cultivator to reshape their meridians and spiritual roots.

If he refined it, his Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root might be reshaped into a Fire-attribute Spiritual Root.

Chu Feng looked up towards the door, only to see a woman driving a carriage towards his dilapidated wooden hut.

However, the moment he looked up, Chu Feng's world suddenly narrowed.

The noise faded, figures blurred, and his vision was left with only that breathtaking hint of white.

Chu Feng immediately saw her information: 93, 63, 92!

Su Qingqiu had a cold, melon-seed-shaped face, pale as the first snow under the moon, which not only did not detract from her radiance but added a touch of aloofness to her stunning, unapproachable beauty.

Her plain white dress could not conceal the breathtaking undulations; the front of her gown was stretched by a suffocatingly full silhouette, like a snowdrift just beginning to melt, on the verge of overflowing.

His gaze slid down to a light blue sash cinching her waist like a crescent moon, instantly drawing in all the scenery.

Behind her waist, the cinched waistline suddenly flared out, forming a voluptuous curve beneath the sheer fabric.

Immediately after, more information about Su Qingqiu appeared on the red dust immortal fate record.

"[Fated Person: Su Qingqiu]"

"[Spiritual Root: None]"

"[Cultivation: None]"

"[Favorability: None]"

"[Dao Body: Profound Yin Immortal Body (dormant)]"

Huh?

Su Qingqiu was the Saintess of Shangqing Sect, a well-known Heavenly Spiritual Root, a peerless prodigy who had reached the Golden Core Realm at a young age. How did she become a 'three-no' product?

Just then, an unusual commotion outside the door grew from far to near.

"Move aside! Everyone, move aside!"

"The Su Family is here! It's the Saintess!"

"Hiss... what a grand display!"

Chu Feng's gaze finally moved away from Su Qingqiu, only to see a luxurious carriage pulled by two spiritual deer stopped at his doorstep.

Guarding the carriage were more than a dozen Shangqing Sect disciples, disdainfully surveying everything around them.

The carriage door silently opened, and a graceful figure stepped out.

It was the Second Miss of the Su Family, Su Qingya.

She was dressed in a flowing, wide-sleeved immortal dress of light blue, her skin like snow, her features picturesque.

Unfortunately, compared to Su Qingqiu, she seemed somewhat unremarkable.

What shocked Chu Feng the most was that the woman before him could actually have Su Qingqiu drive her carriage, and Taiqing Palace disciples act as her escort?

Su Qingya's gaze swept over the people in the Servant Yard, as if looking down on ants.

Finally, her gaze fixed on Chu Feng.

"Are you Chu Feng?"

Chu Feng suppressed the doubts in his heart and cupped his hands, neither humble nor arrogant.

"I am."

Su Qingya's red lips curved slightly, and then she pointed at Su Qingqiu and said.

"The wedding date between the Chu Family and the Su Family is approaching; I've brought the bride for you."

Saying this, she leaned down and whispered into Su Qingqiu's ear, saying meaningfully.

"Sister, that will be your husband from now on. Although he's a Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root waste, he's a perfect match for you."

Chu Feng frowned, asking somewhat confusedly.

"I remember my father saying that my engagement with the Su Family was with the Second Miss. Why has it changed to the Eldest Miss?"

Hearing this question, a Shangqing Sect disciple couldn't help but sneer.

"Junior Sister Qingya has awakened her Earth Spiritual Root and is now our Shangqing Sect's Saintess. You, a toad, still want to eat swan meat?"

Su Qingya sized Chu Feng up and down, her eyes full of disdain.

"Qi Refining First Level, not even fit to be my dog."

With a flick of her wrist, several inferior pills were casually thrown to the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.

"Consider this the Su Family's dowry. With your cultivation, you're only fit to eat these pills."

The dust-covered pills rolled at Chu Feng's feet, as if dismissing a beggar.

Chu Feng looked closely and saw that they were all miscellaneous pills with considerable toxicity.

However, at this moment, he didn't care about these pills at all; only one thought occupied his mind: Su Qingqiu would be his Dao Companion from now on.

Although Su Qingya had awakened her Earth Spiritual Root, she was not his Fated Person at all.

He forcefully suppressed the rising corners of his mouth. Sisters marrying in place of each other, how wonderful!

At the same time, the Utility Disciples watching at Tiansheng Academy were also discussing animatedly.

"I heard that Su Qingqiu had her spiritual root dug out and lost her cultivation, and has already been expelled from Shangqing Sect."

"How unpredictable life is. I never thought her younger sister would become the new Saintess."

"Chu Feng really got a bargain. Even if Su Qingqiu has no cultivation, she's still the former Saintess!"

Listening to the discussions around him, Su Qingya's lips curved slightly.

She had always lived in her sister's shadow, everyone only saw her sister, and no one noticed her.

Now, she had finally trampled her sister underfoot, and she wanted her sister to also experience the taste of being humbled to the dust.

"Xie Wuwang, didn't you like her? I'm specifically marrying her to a Utility Disciple of your Tiansheng Academy, so you can also taste the bitterness of loving but not being able to have."

Su Qingya sneered inwardly, a hint of vengeful satisfaction flashing in her eyes.

She had once loved Xie Wuwang, the Saint Son of Tiansheng Academy, but couldn't have him. Xie Wuwang had publicly declared his love for Su Qingqiu but was rejected.

Didn't this mean that she couldn't even get the trash her sister didn't want!

Now, she had become a Saintess just like her sister, possessing a status and position in no way inferior to her sister's back then.

The reason she personally came to Tiansheng Academy was to let Xie Wuwang know what a wrong decision he had made by rejecting her back then.

However, she no longer looked down on Xie Wuwang; her Dao Companion had to be a Divine Son from one of the Four Great Immortal Sects.

Su Qingya pointed to the dilapidated wooden hut behind Chu Feng.

"Sister, go on, this will be your home from now on."

There was no emotional fluctuation on Su Qingqiu's face; her hollow beautiful eyes had long lost all their luster.

She got off the carriage like a walking corpse and walked to Chu Feng's side.

Her spiritual root had been dug out by a top sect from Central Continent. Shangqing Sect dared not seek justice for her, instead expelling her from the sect like a discarded pawn.

Her family, which she once took pride in, also abandoned her, making her marry in place of her sister.

The world was vast, yet there was no place for her to stand.

However, just as she felt that life had lost all meaning, a large hand suddenly grasped her soft hand.

Chu Feng looked at the former Saintess, once famous throughout the Eastern Region, now reduced to such a state, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.

He took a deep breath and asked solemnly.

"Are you willing to be my Dao Companion?"

Feeling the warmth and firmness of that large hand, Su Qingqiu seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and a glimmer of light appeared in her eyes.

She lightly parted her red lips, her voice so soft it was almost inaudible.

"I am willing."

"[Su Qingqiu has formed a Red Dust Fate with you, Favorability 10%, rewarded with Jade Liquid Profound Body!]"

Whoa!

Chu Feng exclaimed, 'Good heavens!', he had thought he would have to wait until the sun was high in the sky for the binding to be successful, but he didn't expect it to work like this.

The next moment, he felt a clear, moon-like power instantly surge through all his meridians.

In his Dantian, a faint phantom of a three-legged medicinal cauldron subtly appeared.

Feeling the changes in his body, Chu Feng murmured in a low voice.

"Is this the Jade Liquid Profound Body?"

He had only seen records of the Jade Liquid Profound Body in ancient texts within his family; it was a special Dao Body that transformed the body into an alchemy furnace.

Possessing this Dao Body meant instantly reaching the pinnacle of the Dao of Alchemy.

Because, from now on, he would be able to use his body as a furnace to refine any pill below the Immortal Grade.

Moreover, the success rate of alchemy would be 100%, and even the medicinal effects would all be at full potency.

Such terrifying alchemy ability far surpassed even ordinary first-grade alchemists.

Of course, this Dao Body also had a drawback: the pills refined could not be self-refined, requiring him... Chu Feng's throat bobbed, and looking at Su Qingqiu before him again, he felt even more anticipation for tonight.

As long as he could find a way to help Su Qingqiu recover her spiritual root, he would be able to completely lie flat.

With nightly irrigation, his cultivation realm would naturally advance like a broken bamboo.

Seeing the two of them in such an affectionate manner, Su Qingya chuckled softly.

"Sister, Grandfather's birthday is in half a month. Don't forget to bring your brother-in-law back."

As long as Su Qingqiu returned, she would have plenty of ways to make the two of them lose face in front of all the guests.

Before Su Qingqiu could speak, Chu Feng quickly responded.

"My wife and I will definitely go."

Now that he had the system, he was going to give this world a little shock.

As if afraid Su Qingqiu would back out, Su Qingya immediately nodded.

"Good, I will certainly await the arrival of my sister and brother-in-law."

With that, she waved her hand and went straight back into the carriage.

As the group departed, Su Qingqiu couldn't help but say.

"If you go back with me, you will certainly be humiliated by them."

Over the years, she had grown accustomed to the cold sarcasm of those around her, but she didn't want Chu Feng to be implicated.

Unexpectedly, Chu Feng's grip on her hand tightened slightly.

"Don't worry, my wife, I will definitely get back everything you've lost."

Boom!

Su Qingqiu's mind buzzed. Everything she had lost... he would get back.

Having endured for months, the grievances in her heart suddenly could no longer be suppressed, instantly making her eyes red.

She had lost too much; could she really get it back?

"[Su Qingqiu Favorability +10%]"

Chu Feng glanced at the red dust immortal fate record; Su Qingqiu's favorability had already increased to 20%.

He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. Now it was a double rebate.

Deep affection never lasts, only schemes win hearts.

He was naturally serious about what he had just said, but he was also serious about quickly increasing Su Qingqiu's favorability.

"My wife, let's go inside."

Su Qingqiu didn't respond, merely letting him pull her, still somewhat dazed, towards the dilapidated hut.

However, just as the two were about to step inside, an angry shout came from behind them.

"Stop!"
