Cui looked at Fang Zhixing thoughtfully; she hadn't even thought of that.

In an instant, she realized that health and longevity were more important than a harmonious and loving marriage.

As for a girl with such good spiritual roots, would she be interested in Fang Zhixing? With Fang Ruotang around, who would refuse?

Even if that girl becomes more outstanding in her cultivation later, and Fang Zhixing can't catch up, it doesn't matter. Firstly, there's the Little Mirror, and secondly, Fang Ruotang and Yu Sheng can suppress her.

Having talent is just the threshold to meeting them, so a strong woman and a weak man is not unacceptable to Fang Zhixing, as long as it benefits him.

It seems like a lot has been planned, but it's just a matter of a thought. From the way Cui looked at Fang Zhixing, she knew that he himself did not object to Fang Ruotang making plans for him.

"Sixth Brother, since you can communicate with the celestial messenger, I'll entrust your fifth brother's marriage to you. You can help him choose a suitable and good wife, someone you like. Is that alright?"

"Leave it to me?"

Fang Ruotang was overjoyed, thinking that this was the best possible outcome.

Yes! Is that alright? Are you free?

"Yes, yes, we have it!"

Fang Ruotang nodded hurriedly.

"Fifth Brother, Fifth Brother, what kind of girl do you like? A cute little sister? A gentle older sister? Or a talented woman who can talk to you about poetry and the moon and stars, full of knowledge and talent? Or perhaps a strong, independent woman who can wield a sword?"

Fang Ruotang tilted her little face up, her expression full of excitement.

It feels like I've been entrusted with an important task.

"I really hadn't thought about that."

For the first sixteen years of his life, except for the three years he was born when he was still naive, Fang Zhixing devoted himself to learning from the time he could remember.

For him, aside from studying, the few moments of relaxation he had were all brought to him by Fang Ruotang, because she was the only one at home who wouldn't disturb his studies, and she was the only one who would ask him if he was happy with his studies and if he liked them.

The others weren't wrong either; how could it be wrong to care about his future? They were all doing it for his own good. It's just that being unique makes him all the more precious.

"You're just fine as you are."

Fang Zhixing blurted it out, paused for a moment after speaking, and then chuckled softly.

The little mirror is right.

He simply loves Fang Ruotang's warmth and innocence. If his future wife is also such a good girl, he will be very happy, satisfied, and will cherish her dearly.

"Fifth Brother, you have excellent taste."

Fang Ruotang wasn't surprised, after all, the little mirror had misled her earlier. She raised her little face, held up two thumbs, and gestured at Fang Zhixing.

The rest of the family just laughed when they saw the two talking.

"I'm going to take advantage of this month to visit various households and find a good wife that Fifth Brother will like," Fang Ruotang promised, patting her chest.

Fang Zhixing said somewhat awkwardly, "Don't make too much noise, or people will laugh at you."

He knew his own little sister quite well.

If you don't remind her, she might act like the emperor is selecting concubines.

However, her next answer made him realize that it was pointless for him to say anything.

“Who dares to laugh? You have no idea how many people are eyeing my fifth sister-in-law’s position! I spread the word that I would find you a wife, and everyone is eager to! You underestimate me.”

Fang Ruotang once again got cocky.

Fang Zhixing didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said; instead, he watched her make a fuss with tenderness.

After all, marriage is always done this way.

In the past, people would consider a person's family background, character, and talent. Now, Fang Ruotang has become Fang Zhixing's background as well, just like he was born into the Prime Minister's mansion and is the fifth young master of the Prime Minister's mansion.

These were all leverage he used when getting married.

Fang Ruotang is a fiery person who can't keep secrets. After Fang Zhixing went to sleep, she ran to the Tianyi Sect next door and excitedly announced the news.

"My fifth brother is getting married. Please help me spread the word. Oh, by the way, not just anyone can be my fifth sister-in-law. To be my fifth sister-in-law, you must have an excellent water spirit root."

Fang Ruotang had heard Xiao Jingzi mention it when she was learning about spiritual roots.

The water elemental root is highly inclusive, making it ideal for dual cultivation, and is often referred to as a furnace or cauldron by some.

"Oh? That's so difficult!"

Li Mingyu muttered subconsciously, after all, since the founding of Tianyi Sect, there have only been two people with single spiritual roots so far.

It's already this difficult to find two single-elemental spiritual roots, and now there's a specific requirement that the other party has an excellent water spiritual root, which is no less than finding a needle in a haystack.

"It seems a bit like that?" Fang Ruotang looked at Li Mingyu, then at Li Shiyun and Yan Yan, and suddenly felt that it was really difficult. Her high spirits subsided a bit.

[Little mirror, can you tell what a person's spiritual root is at a glance?]

【Yes, you should test it! I can investigate past events, but only if the other person has had their spiritual roots tested. Some people never encounter these things in their entire lives, so I definitely wouldn't be able to find out.】

【Then I can't find Fifth Sister-in-law?】

Fang Ruotang immediately wilted.

[It's alright! We can just do a large-scale survey, which will be a good opportunity to recruit more members for the Tianyi Sect.]

That's true.

Fang Ruotang immediately got excited.

"Wuyou, please inform the eligible women in each prefecture that I am looking for a woman with a water-grade spiritual root to be my fifth sister-in-law. If they are interested, they can come to Tianyi Sect to have their spiritual roots tested."

"Okay, I'll go now?"

"Go, go, go! Notify them as soon as possible and get it done quickly. This is the first time my family has entrusted me with such an important task, so I can't mess it up."

Fang Ruotang handed over the instructions and waited happily.

The next morning, Jin Wuyou came to call her and said that some young ladies had come to have their spirit stones tested, and asked if she wanted to go and see for herself.

Fang Ruotang, who was still half asleep and refusing to open her eyes while clutching the blanket, jumped up from the bed upon hearing this and urged Tao Hongxingbai to hurry up and help her change her clothes and do her makeup.

Then he grabbed two pieces of pastry at random and rushed over to the next room.

To her surprise, the scene was completely different from the bustling crowd she had imagined. She was momentarily stunned and asked uncertainly, "What's going on? Why are there only three girls? Didn't the others receive the message?"

"No, after all, young ladies are reserved. No one dares to be the first to do something like this. If she finds out she has spiritual roots, it would be fine if she could marry your fifth brother. But if she finds out she doesn't have spiritual roots and leaves in disgrace, she might be looked down upon by her future husband's family."

"Huh?" Fang Ruotang was dumbfounded. She had never thought of this possibility before, and her face was full of worry.

"Then what should we do? I want to find a suitable wife for Fifth Brother, which requires a general screening. They only came to have their spiritual roots tested, and it's already affecting their future marriage prospects. I can't live with that. How about I give them some compensation? A Qi-Nourishing Pill or a Longevity Pill would be fine. What do you think?"

Little Mirror had already confessed to her that this kind of pill was completely ignored in the cultivation world; it was too useless.

After all, as one's cultivation level increases, one's lifespan will also increase. It's better to cultivate diligently than to take a longevity pill. As for the Qi-nourishing pill that can cure all diseases, no one in the cultivation world is sick.

These elixirs are only effective for the mortal realm.
