An Unavoidable Blind Date

Chapter 35 An Unavoidable Blind Date

Red Medicine Valley.

It wasn't until Zhou Chun and the others entered the Wang family compound with Wang Zhixiong, the family patriarch, that they realized the Zhou family was the last family to arrive.

The Mu family of Biyun Mountain, the Sun family of Jinfeng Ridge, and the He family of Qingzhu Mountain all arrived at the Wang family's residence yesterday.

At this moment, with the arrival of the Zhou family, all five major families were present.

"This martial arts competition and exchange event jointly organized by our five major families is a rare grand event in recent years. My Wang family has invited many Foundation Establishment cultivators from both inside and outside Lanzhou to attend. Now that all of you have arrived and started exchanging ideas, Fellow Daoist Zhou, please come with me to get to know you all."

Outside a courtyard deep within the Wang family compound, Wang Zhixiong smiled and gestured for Zhou Daoyi to enter.

After saying that, he glanced at Zhou Chun and the other Qi Refining stage cultivators from the Zhou family and smiled, "This is also a good opportunity for these juniors to get to know each other and build relationships."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Daoyi nodded first, then addressed the group of Zhou family cultivators behind him: "You've all heard what Fellow Daoist Wang said. Go with the two Fellow Daoists Wang to meet the other cultivators from various families. Remember, don't cause trouble, understand?"

"Yes, clan chief."

Everyone responded in unison, and then followed the two Qi Refining stage cultivators from the Wang family beside Wang Zhixiong to another courtyard.

When the Zhou family arrived at a courtyard called "Dan Gui Yuan", they could hear cheers and applause coming from inside.

Upon seeing this, the group exchanged glances and then entered the courtyard one after another.

In the courtyard planted with many osmanthus trees, dozens of monks, both men and women, were sitting on stone benches or lying on tree trunks, all looking at one spot in the middle, as if they were holding some kind of activity.

At this moment, after leading the Zhou family group in, the Wang family cultivator who was leading them immediately clapped his hands and shouted, "Come, come, everyone, pause for a moment and come over to welcome the fellow Daoists from the Zhou family."

Upon hearing his words, the cultivators in the courtyard all turned their gazes toward the group of Zhou family cultivators.

"My name is Zhou Jiacheng. I greet you fellow Daoists."

"Zhou Jiapeng greets fellow Daoists."

"Zhou Zhengkang greets fellow Daoists."

……

Facing the gazes of the cultivators in the courtyard, the Zhou family cultivators clasped their hands in greeting, introduced themselves, and took the initiative to start a conversation.

Thus, the cultivators from various families who were originally observing the Zhou family cultivators had no choice but to also state their names in order not to be impolite, even though many of them had done so before.

After everyone had introduced themselves, Zhou Chun and the other Zhou family cultivators, at the invitation of the host Wang family cultivators, found places to sit down and joined in their activities.

Before the Zhou family cultivators arrived, these people were competing to see who could cast the most first-tier low-grade spells and first-tier mid-grade spells within a hundred breaths.

To increase the fun of the competition, someone was on-site to set up a betting pool, attracting others to place bets with spirit coins.

Furthermore, half of the final winnings from the house will be given to the winner.

This greatly increased the willingness of the cultivators present to participate, and many people signed up to join.

Upon learning of this event, many cultivators from the Zhou family were also intrigued and signed up to participate.

Of course, those qualified to participate in this kind of event are basically elite cultivators like Zhou Jiapeng.

Young cultivators like Zhou Chun could only watch the show.

"Thirteenth Brother, why don't you place a bet?"

Under a cassia tree, Zhou Chunzheng stood with his arms crossed, watching the two cultivators compete. Suddenly, Zhou Zhengyong walked up to him and whispered about placing bets.

"Gambling has always been a dangerous thing; I never gamble!"

Zhou Chun shook his head and answered Zhou Zhengyong in a low voice.

Hearing this, Zhou Zhengyong grinned and said, "I know the saying 'a little gambling is fun, but excessive gambling is harmful,' so I only bet three spirit coins for fun. If I lose, I lose!"

Zhou Chun didn't know if he really thought that way, but although the two had a good relationship, it wasn't his place to teach the other person how to be a good person.

So he just shook his head and said, "Brother Yong, you know what I mean. Anyway, I'm not into this."

"If you don't want to play, then don't. Have you seen those girls over there? I've inquired, and they're all unmarried. Why don't you come with me and give it a try? What if it works out?"

As Zhou Zhengyong spoke, he winked at Zhou Chun.

Unlike Zhou Chun, most of the other cultivators in the Zhou family were not opposed to finding a dual cultivation partner, and were even quite proactive in doing so.

In fact, for cultivators, men and women can be Daoist partners, practicing the path of dual cultivation together, which is also a way to improve their cultivation by using external forces.

When Zhou Chun was selecting secret techniques on the second floor of the Zhou family's library, he even saw a dual cultivation technique.

If a man and a woman practice a dual cultivation technique together, their cultivation speed will be faster than normal.

Therefore, it is perfectly normal for a cultivator like Zhou Zhengyong, who is in his late twenties, to have the idea of ​​seeking a cultivation partner when he sees female cultivators from other families who are all of good background, cultivation level and appearance.

However, he was all talk and no action, and he needed Zhou Chun to embolden him.

As for why Zhou Chun was brought in, it's because Zhou Chun is handsome and dashing, making him less likely to be disliked or rejected by female cultivators.

To be honest, Zhou Chun never imagined that after transmigrating, he would become a handsome man.

Therefore, at this moment, he felt both amused and exasperated about being used as a tool by Zhou Zhengyong.

But he couldn't very well refuse something like this.

Regardless of his relationship with Zhou Zhengyong, getting to know other cultivators is certainly not a bad thing.

More importantly, although he doesn't currently have any intention of finding a cultivation partner, there's no need for him to avoid female cultivators whenever he encounters one.

If he doesn't agree, and Zhou Zhengyong, that big mouth, spreads the word one day, people might easily suspect that he has a problem with his sexual orientation.

At this point, he could only cough twice and say, "Ahem, of course you can go and get to know other family members, but whether you can attract the interest of the young lady depends on your own abilities, Brother Yong."

Upon seeing his agreement, Zhou Zhengyong nodded repeatedly with delight, saying, "Of course, I've prepared a secret weapon."

The secret weapon?

Zhou Chun glanced at him but couldn't see anything new on his body.

However, his words did pique my curiosity.

They then followed him to the osmanthus tree where the female cultivators were.

After walking about ten feet away from the female cultivators, Zhou Chun saw that they had noticed him and Zhou Zhengyong looking over. Seeing that Zhou Zhengyong didn't seem inclined to speak, Zhou Chun could only bow and say, "Greetings, fellow Daoists. I am Zhou Zhengchun, and this is my cousin Zhou Zhengyong."

After pausing slightly, he smiled at the women and said, "May we stay a while and exchange ideas with you fellow Daoists?"

He was actually incredibly nervous when he said that.

To be honest, Zhou Chun had a psychological aversion to such scenes.

Because he had been rejected many times in his previous life, he eventually gave up and gave up.

However, this result made him more confident.

As soon as he finished speaking, the female cultivators all smiled.

One of the female cultivators, dressed in a light blue dress, immediately raised her hand and said, "Of course it's alright, Fellow Daoist Zhou, please have a seat. We sisters would also like to ask the fellow Daoists of the Zhou family about the art of beast taming!"

So being handsome really does give you preferential treatment?

Are the female cultivators in this world more understanding?

As Zhou Chun sat down, he was filled with emotion.

He looked at the four female cultivators opposite him.

In terms of looks and figure, she is definitely top-notch, just like the beauties in his previous life, who could easily gain millions of followers without using beauty filters when live streaming.

Such beauties were something he could only admire from afar in his previous life; to actually meet them in person and smile at them was virtually impossible.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou looks quite young. May I ask your age?"

"I've heard that the Zhou family of Nine Peaks Ridge raises many kinds of spirit beasts. I've always wanted to raise a fox-like spirit pet. Fellow Daoist Zhou, could you perhaps help me?"

"I have tamed a Flame Cat spirit pet, but unfortunately, after many years it remains a mid-grade first-tier demon beast. Fellow Daoist Zhou, do you know how to help it advance and break through?"

Just as Zhou Chun sat down, reflecting on his own thoughts, the female cultivators in front of him began to bombard him with various questions.

This seemed to bring him back to a familiar routine.

Previously, the questions were always: Have you bought a house? Have you bought a car? Was the house paid for in full? Is the car a BMW, Mercedes-Benz, or Audi?

Compared to those probing questions, these questions are relatively easy to answer now.

After regaining his composure, he replied with a smile, "I am twenty-four years old this year, and I have been on the path of cultivation for fourteen years."

"I really can't help you with this fellow Daoist's request, because the Zhou family has no plans to sell spirit pets at the moment. However, I can keep an eye out for you and will inform you as soon as there is any news."

"As for this fellow Daoist's question, I need to examine your Flame Cat and understand your process of raising it before I can offer you any advice."

In this way, while answering the questions from the female cultivators, Zhou Chun gradually helped Zhou Zhengyong find out some information about the women by asking questions himself.
