Mystic ancestor Shen Qi thought being able to relive life on earth was already happiness enough.
When Li Zijiu took her hand and said he wanted to stay by her side till the end of time, Shen...
Could she say that she's already planning to live on this planet?
It's simply impossible to ascend to immortality using the spiritual energy here.
Even with that power of faith, the potential for future advancement would be enormous.
But Li Ziju actually said he still had a chance.
I'm quite envious and jealous.
"If I marry you, I should also have a chance to ascend, right?!" Chen Qi suddenly asked.
Li Ziju: "I...I don't know!"
Seeing Chen Qi's burning gaze, Li Ziju gave a very honest answer.
He really didn't know.
If it were someone else, Li Zijiu might have said more, since this was someone he had carefully selected.
But this person is Shen Qi.
Li Ziju felt that being practical was better.
Chen Qi immediately said, "Ask your system!"
After a while, Li Ziju said with some hesitation and embarrassment, "The system says there's a 50% chance!"
Chen Qi: ...Another terrible system.
If you successfully ascend, it's thanks to the system; if you fail, it's the other half of the story.
System: I feel like you're subtly criticizing me, but I have no proof!
"Why don't we give it a try?" Li Ziju said, sounding a little guilty.
Chen Qi was thinking about these two problematic systems.
Without paying much attention, I just hummed in agreement.
Li Zijiu's soul vanished in an instant.
Then, in the blink of an eye, it came back.
A little embarrassed, she said, "You should tell the old man that we'll get engaged once I wake up, and then get married in a few days!"
"Why don't you say so yourself?" Chen Qi retorted habitually.
Li Ziju: "I'm in spirit form now. I've been talking for a long time, but the old man didn't understand a single word!"
"...Heh! No, what did you just say?" Chen Qi suddenly realized that something seemed wrong.
Li Ziju: "I'll tell you I'm a spirit, and the old man can't see me. You can go over and say it; he'll believe you anyway!"
Chen Qi: ...Don't think I'll let you off the hook just because you said that.
Before Shen Qi could get angry.
Li Ziju quickly added, "Think about it, in this world, I'm probably the only one you'd even look at, not to mention the chance to ascend to immortality. Why don't we just make do?"
Chen Qi: "Is this something that can be made do with!?"
I've never heard of people having to make do before getting married.
Little did anyone expect Li Ziju to say, "There are plenty of marriages that are just made up without any real commitment. There's no difference between us. Besides, only I can understand you. Others wouldn't even dare to look you in the eye!"
We can't beat them.
You can't outrun them.
I can't argue with that.
Not bad...
Since he didn't fit any of those criteria, Chen Qi had never really thought about these things in that direction.
Chen Qi wanted to shatter this guy's soul.
Although what Li Zijiu said was really attractive to Chen Qi.
It doesn't matter where you cultivate. If it weren't for the scarcity of spiritual energy here, Chen Qi would have wanted to settle down here.
But...
They went out again to invite Old Master Li in.
Even if Shen Qi had the thickest skin, she couldn't bring herself to bring up the marriage.
After Elder Li came in, Chen Qi said, "I'll put something on your eyes for you, and you'll be able to see Li Zijiu soon!"
"Okay!"
Old Master Li knew this was a special kind of substance.
Like cow tears, I suppose.
Soon, a man dressed in ancient costume and dressed in white appeared at the head of the bed.
Mr. Li: "Ajiu???"
The face is the same, only the outfit is different from Xiao Jiu's.
Li Ziju said, "Old man, my name is Li Ziju, but I'm not that little fellow from this era. I haven't found him yet..."
