Chapter 769: Second Elder's Matchmaking, Wang Miaomiao Willing (Part 2)

Chapter 769: Chapter 525: Second Elder’s Matchmaking, Wang Miaomiao Willing (Part 2)

Miaomiao has a clear understanding of herself.

Alchemist Zheng Yi is the cornerstone of our Wang Family, contributing greatly.

If it weren’t for Alchemist Zheng Yi serving as the Third Elder, the Wang Family might not have reached the heights it enjoys today.

It’s rumored that Alchemist Zheng Yi has no plans to remarry in the near future, so how could Miaomiao dare to have such extravagant hopes?”

“But what if Grandpa says there is a possibility?”

The Second Elder’s light words instantly struck a chord in Wang Miaomiao’s heart.

She couldn’t believe it.

This surprise had returned so quietly and easily.

She truly had a chance to make up for past regrets.

After a brief moment of blankness, Wang Miaomiao immediately said, “Grandpa, your granddaughter is willing.”

“Are you sure?”

The Second Elder asked once again.

Wang Miaomiao nodded without hesitation and said firmly, “I’ve thought it through, and I must seize this opportunity.

I am one of the few in the Wang Family with a top-grade Spirit Root, and it seems the Third Elder has always favored women with outstanding Spirit Roots.

Within the Wang Family.

It would be hard to find someone more suitable for Alchemist Zheng Yi than your granddaughter.

Alchemist Zheng Yi is likely to possess a special Spirit Body.

His breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Realm is only natural, and achieving the Crystal Realm in the future should not be too difficult.

Looking across the whole Wang Family.

Only your granddaughter has the chance to accompany Alchemist Zheng Yi further, and I don’t want to miss this opportunity.”

Wang Miaomiao spoke rapidly, saying all these words in one breath.

Perhaps over countless days and nights.

She had fantasized about this day.

The Second Elder slightly raised the corners of his mouth and said, “Miaomiao, Grandpa will go and propose this match for you.

Just in time.

The position of the Clan Leader in the Wang Family is also due for some changes.”

Wang Miaomiao opened her mouth, intending to say something, but after pondering for a moment, she swallowed her words.

In her view.

The position of Clan Leader in the Wang Family no longer seemed as important as she once thought.

If Grandpa focused on power struggles, it would be better for him to concentrate on cultivation; if he could progress further in cultivation, the position of Clan Leader.

Would be insignificant.

However, compared to half a year ago, Wang Miaomiao’s biggest progress was her no longer being presumptuous.

She believed that Grandpa must have his own considerations.

“Having an elder at home is like having a treasure.” What she could think of, wouldn’t her Grandpa have thought of as well?

If she still dwelled on this, it would indeed be laughable.

Watching his granddaughter Wang Miaomiao’s distant silhouette, the Second Elder sighed with a face full of helplessness.

The Foundation Establishment Realm was probably the limit of his life.

His Spirit Root was merely middle-grade, and to advance further in cultivation, he could only rely on the Foundation Establishment resources each month, gradually enhancing through relentless effort.

Now, with ample time and energy.

His mind became more active.

Becoming the Clan Leader, of course, meant being able to mobilize more family resources; additionally, with his granddaughter Wang Miaomiao having the chance to establish a close relationship with the family’s Third Elder, Zheng Yi.

The Second Elder naturally wanted to use this to advance further.

Only by gaining more power could he take his cultivation to an even higher level.

…

Celestial South Market, Cyan Bamboo Small Tower.

Inside a private room, a faint spiritual light shimmered gently, and the nearby sound insulation array ensured that no one outside could hear the happenings inside.

Cyan Bamboo Small Tower always had a good reputation.

Zheng Yi asked, “Second Elder, why have you sought me today?”

The Second Elder straightforwardly said, “To betroth my granddaughter Miaomiao to you, Third Elder.”

Hearing this, Zheng Yi was genuinely a bit surprised.

Seeing Zheng Yi’s demeanor, the Second Elder thought he was still holding a grudge over past matters, so he chuckled softly, “Rest assured, Third Elder, Miaomiao has already acknowledged her past mistakes.

And as an elder.

I have always respected the opinions of the younger generation; Miaomiao has agreed willingly.

Miaomiao possesses a top-grade Spirit Root, which, while not as remarkable as the Young Family Head’s, is still a rarity within the Wang Family.

If she could join hands with you, Third Elder, it would benefit both the Wang Family and you immensely.

Moreover, the issue of the Clan Leader’s position should have a conclusion.”

The Second Elder’s words carried an implicit meaning.

After hearing this, Zheng Yi’s mind flashed to Wang Miaomiao’s elegant visage, feeling somewhat troubled.

But then he thought, now that his breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Realm was imminent, the Wang Family could no longer restrain him, especially with the possession of a highly potent small magical treasure.

With this, why be so hesitant?

By nature, he tended to deal with significant matters with strong measures, and if it were any ordinary cultivator with a formidable trump card like a magical treasure, they would have long ventured widely.

So he smiled and said, “If Miaomiao truly wishes this marriage, I, as a junior, have no reason to refuse.

To be fortunate enough to marry the celestial jewel of the Wang Family as a Daoist Companion would indeed be a blessing for me, the Third Elder.”

“Good, good, good!”

Seeing Zheng Yi not rejecting, the Second Elder displayed utter joy.

Looking at Zheng Yi before him, he felt as though he was truly regarded as family.

The Second Elder silently chuckled to himself: Great Elder, in terms of cultivation, I cannot surpass you, but when it comes to the younger generation, you fall short compared to me.

Throughout my life, because my Spirit Root was slightly inferior to yours, I lagged on the path of cultivation.

But your younger generation lags behind mine; this round, I’ve got it won.

Under the deliberate promotion by the Second Elder, the marriage between Zheng Yi and Wang Miaomiao became the talk of the town.

…

A few days later!

Wang Miaomiao came to the Alchemy Shop, looked shyly at Zheng Yi, and said, “If you don’t wish for this to become too public, I can go and speak with Grandpa now.”

At this time, Wang Miaomiao was dressed in a white cinnabar gown.

She appeared fresh and elegant, her demeanor lacked the usual arrogance of the Wang Family, and her eyes directed towards Zheng Yi were full of feminine grace and a bit of the steadiness of an Alchemist.

Zheng Yi slightly nodded, thinking that she had indeed improved a lot compared to half a year ago.

The environment and experiences truly can change a person.

A woman like her, brought into the home, could certainly lead to a stable life, and her top-grade Spirit Root could help in mending his own Spirit Root.

The injuries to his body and the trauma to his Divine Sense.

Could be compensated for with various Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, but for the Spirit Root aspect, apart from the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror and previous Spirit Root mending items, it was hard to find other methods.

Even though Zheng Yi had spent almost a year at Celestial South Market, probing everywhere, and had visited the Black Market several times, he still found nothing.

Otherwise.

Whether or not he would agree to the marriage today would have been hard to say.

“Miss Wang, agreeing so easily to this marriage, could it be that you truly fancy Mr. Zheng?”

Zheng Yi suddenly smiled.

Wang Miaomiao, upon seeing Zheng Yi bring this up again, turned slightly pale.

She was about to explain, but when she looked up and saw Zheng Yi was merely jesting, she felt relieved, giving him a playful glare, and scolded, “You are the Third Elder of the Wang Family.

How can you still hold petty grievances against a young girl like me?”

Zheng Yi smirked, returning the retort, “Previously at the Skill Transmission Hall in the Alchemy Pavilion, while being the celestial jewel of the Wang Family.

Didn’t you also hold petty grievances against me, a mere Alchemy Apprentice?”

“I was wrong, alright?”

Just as Zheng Yi thought Wang Miaomiao was about to argue and bicker again.

Wang Miaomiao suddenly lost her temper, her eyes filled with emotion, shyly gazing at Zheng Yi, and slowly said, “Now I’m already yours, you can punish or take revenge however you wish.”

Looking at the once lofty Miss of the Wang Family.

Now shy like a little girl before him, a faint sense of delight passed through Zheng Yi’s heart.

He lifted Wang Miaomiao’s elegant chin.

Without hesitation, at the entrance of the Alchemy Shop, he leaned down and kissed her.

Wang Miaomiao was initially stunned, seemingly taken aback by Zheng Yi’s sudden action, wanting to push him away but fearing he’d be angered, her body then softened.

She leaned into Zheng Yi’s arms, letting him gently embrace her.

After the kiss, Zheng Yi’s eyes were filled with a playful gleam.

Wang Miaomiao, both shy and timid, hid in his embrace.

Passersby around.

Only dared to take a quick glance or two before hurrying away.

After all, the owner behind this Alchemy Shop, Zheng Yi, was a Third-grade Alchemist, not someone ordinary Qi Refining Realm cultivators could afford to offend; watching too much could easily invite trouble.

The people in Yunluo Lane wouldn’t dare take this risk.

The plight of the cultivation realm’s lower-level cultivators could be seen at a glance!
