Chapter 645 -227: “You’re Not Planning to Kill Me, Are You?”_2
And at this moment—
Kneeling on the ground, a little girl in a white dress slightly bit her lip and then got up to walk to Chen Qiu’s side. She carefully supported his arm, and though she didn’t explicitly say anything, her actions clearly conveyed her message.
“…”
Chen Qiu glanced casually at the woman beside him and didn’t dwell on her too long. She had just been kneeling next to Family Head Liu, so if she wasn’t a maid, she must be the Liu Family’s young miss.
“Everyone, get up.”
After he spoke carelessly, he stepped over the Liu Family’s threshold with the woman’s support, passing through the front hall and heading straight towards the back hall.
Upon entering the Liu Family’s residence, he felt that the Spiritual Energy here was noticeably denser than outside, clearly due to the Spirit Gathering Array activated throughout the entire family compound. Moreover, it was the type that was always active; otherwise, the water in the compound wouldn’t be so clear, and the lotus flowers would not grow so well.
Rich indeed.
He couldn’t help but muse internally. Even a minor family on the Vast Continent, seemingly inconsequential, had the power to always keep a Spirit Gathering Array activated. Although the array was not of a high grade and the Spiritual Energy wasn’t much denser than the outside world, it was still a reflection of their strength and heritage.
The Chao Tian Sect he belonged to.
Even now, they were somewhat reluctant to always have their Spirit Gathering Array active.
A low-grade one was useless to him.
But he couldn’t afford to operate a high-grade one either.
It seemed that he truly needed to make an effort. Before his next retreat, he would need to quickly visit the various forces of Xuantian State, Chen Qiu made a mental decision and continued on, leading the way with the Liu Family’s young miss supporting him, towards the depths of the Liu Family residence.
In the Liu Family Reception Hall.
Chen Qiu sat in the seat of honor while Fat Long and the Heavenly Axe Sect Master and his entourage sat on either side. The Liu Family Patriarch, along with a group of elders, stood in the center of the reception hall with faces full of apprehension, while the Liu Family’s disciples did not have the privilege to be within earshot.
The Liu Family’s young miss was now sitting quietly by the seat of honor, resembling a small attendant.
It was somewhat puzzling.
One might think she was trying to climb the social ladder through her body, but there was nothing overtly suggestive in her behavior or actions, and apart from that intention, it was hard to guess any other purpose.
…
From his seat of honor, Chen Qiu casually glanced at this Liu Family young miss. Sometime earlier, she had removed her veil, revealing her inherently beautiful face, outstanding in both figure and appearance.
In his life, he had only shared a room with one woman, and that was Mei Ya of the Xuantian Continent. But this Liu Family young miss excelled over Mei Ya in both figure and appearance.
She had that delicate demeanor typical to the women of the southern regions.
Overall, she appeared very fragile, with a petite stature. With her cherry lips, when viewed from the front or the side, she was quite appealing.
Although she was not a Heavenly Dao Beauty, her looks were far superior to many of those who held that title. After all, being named a Heavenly Dao Beauty was not solely based on appearance—it was more like a random selection process.
But most importantly—
Her Cultivation level was impressive, at the Early Stage of Divinity Transformation.
To an ordinary person, beauty meant less; to the sensitivities of a Cultivator’s Divine Sense, things like large pores or body odor were magnified countless times.
That’s also why you rarely heard of a Divinity Transformation powerful practitioner humiliating an ordinary woman.
But once one breaks through to the Golden Core, the entire temperament undergoes a different transformation, especially upon reaching Divinity Transformation, possessing a body that did not leak, free from impurities, devoid of pores and seeming wholly natural, as if created by the heavens.
He had to admit, she was quite impressive.
Chen Qiu’s gaze shifted from the young miss of the Liu Family, who was sitting on her knees beside him, and then he turned towards the people standing in the reception hall of the Liu Family and spoke indifferently, “Where is the token?”
The Liu Family Patriarch, standing in the middle of the hall, carefully took out a token from his chest. He was just about to step forward to hand it to Chen Qiu
when he saw his daughter, who had been kneeling on the ground, suddenly stand up and take the token from his hand. She walked over with a grace that reminded one of willow leaves dancing lightly in the breeze and handed the token to Chen Qiu, only to kneel down once again.

“…”
Chen Qiu raised an eyebrow subtly as he took the token from the hands of the Liu Family’s young miss. He played with the white jade-carved token in his hand, which felt smooth and warm with an ancient aura to it.
If this were a thousand years ago, there might still be remnants of Chao Tian Sect’s aura in this token.
But with the passing of time, whatever essence might have been present had disappeared.
On the front of the token was carved the words “Chao Tian Sect”, and on the back was etched the word “Elder”, denoting it as an elder token of the Chao Tian Sect.
After a long pause,
he finally looked up at the Liu Family Patriarch and asked softly, “So the Zhang Family of Tai City is forcing a marriage with your young miss, right? How do you wish to deal with this? Shall we eliminate them all?”
As soon as these words were spoken,
the Zhang Family’s Ancestor—who was standing behind the Heavenly Axe Sect Master—turned pale instantly. He knelt down on the ground and turned to Family Head Liu with eyes full of terror as his trembling voice carried a whine, “Family Head Liu, our Zhang Family is at fault, but the crime does not warrant extermination, does it?!
“Although I’ve oppressed your family, no matter what you say, we haven’t had any actual conflicts, have we?!”
“You… you please speak on our behalf.”
“I honestly didn’t know of the relationship between the Liu Family and the Chao Tian Sect. Family Head Liu, you know, when you presented the Chao Tian Sect token, didn’t our Zhang Family’s people also withdraw immediately?”
Standing in place, the Liu Family Patriarch did not meet the gaze of the Zhang Family Ancestor and instead looked up at Chen Qiu, biting his lip slightly with a hoarse voice, “I leave it all to the senior’s discretion.”
