Guan Qingchen was extremely worried.
He quickly bought a villa nearby and became neighbors with Li Jianshan and Jiang Si.
The company already had a manager handling things, and he had already turned down almost all of his work in the entertainment industry.
The agent gasped: "Are you planning to retire from the entertainment industry?" As a family heir, it was indeed unlikely that he would stay in the industry forever, but he hadn't expected it to be so soon.
Am I preparing to lose my job?
Guan Qingchen patted his shoulder: "Don't overthink it. See which newcomer in the company has potential and you can mentor them. I'm busy right now."
Nothing is more important than protecting his wife.
Seeing that Guan Qingchen had even bought a villa here, the agent calmly took a drag of his cigarette and said, "Are you really planning to switch your affections and pursue Jiang Si?"
"Pfft..." Guan Qingchen spat out a mouthful of water. "Where did you get such terrifying, disrespectful, and underworld-like ideas?"
"Then why do you go to his place every day?" The manager was exhausted. A few days ago, Jiang Si took Guan Qingchen away in front of so many people, then disappeared for several days. When she came back, she made such a big move. The public opinion was beyond his control.
"Haven't you been checking the trending topics lately?" His manager read the headline to him.
#Shocking! Actor Guan is suspected of having an affair with a female celebrity surnamed Jiang#
#Guan and Jiang, two celebrities suspected of having obtained their marriage certificate#
#Breaking! A couple in the entertainment industry had a passionate three-day affair#
Guan Qingchen: "..." He wouldn't dare even if he had a hundred lives. Besides, he has a wife. How could he face Han Yunluo if she saw him?
Guan Qingchen felt a chill run down his spine.
He quickly knelt down in front of Jiang Si and said, "Master Jiang, don't worry, I will clarify this personally right away."
Jiang Si looked at Guan Qingchen with some interest: "No rush, give me another drop of blood."
Guan Qingchen: "???" Is the master so angry that he wants to settle things with blood?
But Guan Qingchen remained kneeling upright: "Don't even mention a drop of blood, I'd take a whole bowl without any problem."
Jiang Si took a drop of blood from Guan Qingchen and another drop from She Zhang.
She mixed the two drops of blood together, and after they were combined, they began to boil.
Everyone craned their necks: "???"
Qi Yan raised his head: "Guan Qingchen is a snake?"
She Zhang flicked Qi Yan on the forehead, "What's wrong with snakes?!"
Guan Qingchen: "..." What are you saying? He was 100% certain that he was a person.
“Indeed,” Jiang Si said. “She Zhang is a golden python. Your clan’s innate intelligence developed earlier than other clans because one of your ancestors had a connection with the Azure Dragon. Therefore, She Zhang has the bloodline of the Azure Dragon.”
Meng Hu said with some envy, "Qinglong has great magical power. If one awakens his bloodline inheritance, one will achieve even greater success in cultivation."
"What does that have to do with me?" Guan Qingchen asked.
Jiang Si looked at him as if it were the most natural thing in the world, "You're the same."
"Qinglong also had an affair with your ancestor."
Everyone: "..."
Qi Yan struggled to conclude: "So you mean the two of them are related?"
Guan Qingchen's lips twitched. He never imagined in his life that he would one day be related to a snake.
He thought supernatural phenomena were already unscientific enough, but he never expected that dragons actually existed, and that these dragons were his very, very, very great-great-great-ancestor.
“The dragon has nine sons, and he can have a son with a tiger and a tortoise. What’s so strange about him having a child with a snake and a human?” Jiang Si thought it was normal. “However, this goes back to ancient times. After so long, the bloodline has been diluted to almost nothing. He’s no different from a normal person, or even a normal snake.”
Guan Qingchen: This explanation did not comfort him well. He could not imagine that his ancestor had gotten together with a dragon, not even a divine dragon.
He looked at Guan Qingchen: "Why are you like this? Are you unhappy?"
"This is something many cultivators crave. The Azure Dragon bloodline is naturally able to restrain evil creatures, and if one cultivates it, one will surely achieve something." Putting aside the amorous nature of dragons like the Azure Dragon, it is truly formidable.
Guan Qingchen pointed to himself: "Then I'll cultivate?"
Having spent most of his life as an actor, he never imagined he would become a Taoist priest.
"Don't you want to cultivate?" Jiang Si asked curiously. "You're not thinking of hiding behind someone again next time you encounter trouble, are you? Ordinary demons and monsters can't do anything to Han Yunluo, but you've read Journey to the West, there are always those stronger than her. Then she'll be at their mercy. Can you bear to do that?"
After being persuaded—no, encouraged—by Jiang Si, Guan Qingchen was filled with endless emotions.
Since he decided to be with Han Yunluo, who wasn't even human, he naturally couldn't be an ordinary person.
Guan Qingchen knelt down again: "Please, Master Jiang, accept me as your disciple!"
Jiang Si smiled happily; she really knew what she was doing!
"Wait a minute," Guan Qingchen asked the most crucial question, "Now that I've become an apprentice, does that mean I'm going to become a nun?"
"What are you thinking? We are Taoists, not Buddhists."
Guan Qingchen was relieved.
Although I was previously an outer disciple of Master Chengyuan, it was only to learn some Buddhist teachings to comfort my soul. Now, I am learning Taoist arts.
He didn't dare to hope that he could surpass Jiang Si one day; he just wanted to protect Han Yunluo.
Guan Qingchen then posted a statement on her personal blog.
[Guan Qingchen V: The recent rumors about me and Master Jiang Si are completely unfounded. I have recently become a disciple of Master Jiang. Please stop spreading rumors. I will also be temporarily retiring from the entertainment industry. Thank you for your concern, and see you all again in the future.]
Netizens were shocked.
Fans: What do you mean by retiring from the entertainment industry! I'd rather you and Jiang Si were really in a romantic relationship than have a master-disciple relationship!
