I Have No Qualifications, The System Asked Me To Marry A Wife To Practice

Chu Shen was delighted that Li Xiangqi was able to find him, indicating that the support from the Langhuan Heavenly Palace, at least from the Chu family, was not far away.

"You came just in time. Is there any other support?" Chu Shen asked.

Li Xiangqi nodded and said, "There is a search team that came with me. I heard that when they learned about your situation, the Palace Master became furious and lodged a strong protest with the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty. He also ordered Lingxi Peak to search for your whereabouts with all their might. The wives at home have also contacted Fuyuan Pavilion and others to search together. Besides our team, there are more than ten other teams searching."

Chu Shen breathed a sigh of relief. On one hand, he felt reassured by the arrival of reinforcements, and on the other hand, he was grateful that the Palace Master had not given up on him. This showed that the Palace Master still firmly supported him.

"How is the situation at home?" Chu Shen asked.

"The family is safe. Madam Liusu and the others have been pushing forward with the reforms according to your instructions. Although they have encountered a lot of resistance, the Palace Master has been very supportive, and the progress is not bad. However..." Li Xiangqi hesitated.

Chu Shen knew immediately that someone had caused trouble. "However, what? Don't hesitate, just say it."

Li Xiangqi said, "The Palace Master thinks that your suggestion to restrict the powerful clans and families to settle in the inner palace is excellent and has been pushing for its implementation. Many clans and families opposed it before, and the resistance was strong. However, recently, some families have become more compliant."

"Not only did they agree to reduce the size of the inner palace and move to the outer ring, but they also transferred some family members from the Langhuan Heavenly Palace to the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty," Li Xiangqi continued.

Chu Shen frowned. "Don't they know that the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty is currently in the midst of a rebellion?"

"After the envoy returned, the Heavenly Palace has been closely monitoring the relevant information about the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty. They knew about the Huangtian Rebellion as soon as possible. They couldn't possibly not know. Lady Jinrong and the others said that those powerful clans and families might see this as an opportunity to take advantage of the chaos in the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty to achieve their own goals," Li Xiangqi explained.

Chu Shen nodded. "That's a possibility, but... do those people have such strong pioneering spirit?"

If the aristocratic families were truly filled with a spirit of adventure, they wouldn't have stayed entrenched in the inner palace and outer circle for so many years, becoming what they are now.

Li Xiangqi said, "The specific situation is unknown, but those families are indeed very active in the matter of coming to the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty."

Chu Shen thought that something might have happened that was different from what he expected. After pondering for a while, he said, "Very well, assist me in arranging these women, and then we will return to the Langxuan Heavenly Palace!"

His current focus was ultimately on the reform of the Langxuan Heavenly Palace. Even if there were conflicts with the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty, there were priorities and urgencies. The settlement could be dealt with later.

Li Xiangqi glanced at the helpless Wan Ye and asked, "What is her relationship with those women?"

Chu Shen explained the situation with the black market under his feet and sighed, "The chaos in the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty has already begun. The Huangtian Uprising is well-prepared and supported by the Taiping Sect. It definitely won't be easily suppressed. We are powerless to save everyone, but since we've encountered it, let's save as many as we can."

Although Li Xiangqi didn't have much affection for people outside of the Dantai and Chu families, she still had sympathy. She nodded and agreed, "Then I will find a suitable place and make arrangements with the others first."

Chu Shen nodded. With Li Xiangqi and her group, he didn't need to do everything himself anymore. "That's good. After handling this matter tomorrow, let's return to the heavenly palace as soon as possible. We've been away for so long, who knows what tricks our enemies will play."

The night passed without any words. The next morning, except for Wan Ye, who was a bit down after failing to climb into bed in the middle of the night, the other rescued women were in relatively good condition. However, when they looked at Chu Shen, there was a hint of resentment in their eyes.

Seeing that Wan Ye had no chance, they had even less of a chance. Some of their fantasies were shattered, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of loss.

But when Li Xiangqi appeared again, almost no one could bear to hold any grudges.

The group of cultivators, as long as they have unique aesthetics, there is no ugliness. Moreover, there is an enhancement in terms of temperament and other aspects. The difference between them and mortal women is like the stark contrast between a beautifully made-up picture and a bare-faced one. Unless mortal women have exceptional spiritual aptitude, they have no chance of competing.

Li Xiangqi also understood the thoughts of these women. She smiled faintly, waved her sleeve, and used her magical powers to lead them to the secluded place she and her subordinates had chosen the night before.

Chu Shen didn't rush to catch up. Instead, he took Xiao Biesan out of the shady establishment and buried this place, which was tainted with countless sins, with a slap. Only then did he catch up with Li Xiangqi's pace, taking Xiao Biesan along.

It must be said that Li Xiangqi is quite reliable in handling matters. She found a place surrounded by mountains and water to serve as the hiding place for Juanniang, Wanye, and the others. Not only does it have a large plain suitable for cultivation, but it also has abundant resources in the mountains and forests.

Considering that Juanniang and the others are weak mortal women, several disciples from Langhun Heavenly Palace who came with Li Xiangqi even cleared the surrounding dangerous beasts and poisonous insects in advance. They used magic to level the ground and opened up some sturdy caves in the mountain where Juanniang and the others could take refuge in times of crisis. It can be said that they were very considerate.

In addition to the improved spiritual seeds left by Li Xiangqi and the talismans, introductory cultivation techniques, and other items given by Chu Shen, the group of unfortunate women now have decent survival abilities even in these mountains and forests.

... Seeking flowers...

At this point, Chu Shen can be considered to have done his utmost. Even if Juanniang and the other women are reluctant, they know that the other party has done so much for them in this chaotic world. They can only bid farewell with reluctance.

As Chu Shen left the valley, he felt a sense of relief. He felt the joy of having done a good deed and the anticipation of returning.

Watching Juanniang, Wanye, and the others who were left behind as he and the other cultivators departed, they exchanged a glance and silently started working.

Chu Shen created a new home for them, but the conditions were still very rudimentary, and they needed to build it themselves.

More importantly, Chu Shen left them with a cultivation technique. Although they couldn't reach the heights of Langhun Heavenly Palace, they had obtained a chance for cultivation and would naturally cherish it.

After experiencing the ordeal of the black market, they have fully realized the cruelty of the current world. How could they not strive to improve themselves?

However, the achievements they can ultimately reach will depend on their fate.

They only hope that after the disaster, they will have a prosperous future.

On the other hand, with the assistance of Li Xiangqi and her group, Chu Shen quickly crossed the chaotic southern region of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty and arrived at the Great River in just a few days.

The Great River is the natural boundary between the north and south of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty. The geographical differences between the mountains and rivers in the north and south are very obvious. As long as they cross this river, which is over a thousand kilometers wide, they will enter the northern territory.

Similarly, with this river as a barrier, the likelihood of any major incidents occurring in the northern region of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty is greatly reduced.

At least when Chu Shen and the others set foot on the northern bank via a ferry, they found that although people were discussing the chaos in the south, they hadn't heard of any large-scale events in the north.

Perhaps this is also related to the fact that the Taiping Sect has not yet been able to effectively infiltrate the northern region of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty.

What frustrates Chu Shen is that even so, the cities along the river still use the Earth Pulse Instrument, which disrupts the use of spatial spells and magical artifacts.

"Don't worry, my lord. This is just a method used by the river defense line for safety. If you go further north, there will be gaps," Li Xiangqi reassured him.

The development of the northern and southern regions of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty is still very imbalanced. The south is the birthplace of the founding emperor, prosperous and developed, while the north was gradually taken from the wilderness by generations of ancestors. In order to consolidate the territory, even Anyangjing has been relocated from south to north twice. This attitude is somewhat reminiscent of an Immortal Emperor guarding the country.

Unfortunately, the current Chongling Emperor and his court are far from satisfactory.
