I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 336 Goodbye Qingluo, life choices (please subscribe)
  "Wei Tu, I can arrange private meetings for you and Qing Luo... but the number of times is limited."

Zhao Huamin's tone softened a little.

However, Wei Tu noticed that Zhao Huamin deliberately added an accent to the word "privately".

He immediately understood why Zhao Huamin wanted to meet with him alone during this trip.

The Shengya Zhao family does not object to the matter between him and Zhao Qingluo, but they will not support it too much. Their main task is to maintain the family's face.

In order to protect the family's face, it was naturally inappropriate for him, a "lover" who interfered with the marriage, to appear in public.

After this sensitive period, after the Shengyashan Zhao family and the Tianyi Sect Jiao family break off their engagement, the matter between him and Zhao Qingluo can be made public.

This sensitive period is the forty-five years that Zhao Huamin just mentioned.

……

Zhao Huamin believed that Wei Tu would understand the difficulties of the Zhao family in Shengya.

After all, cooperation will benefit both sides, and separation will hurt both sides.

Wei Tu's realm and alchemy attainments will gain her respect, appreciation, and even admiration.

——From a casual cultivator in a small border country to a position that is now comparable to that of a peak in Shengya Mountain, his abilities are not comparable to those of a family cultivator like her who relies on the poor achievements of her ancestors.

But in front of the Shengya Zhao family, these achievements of Wei Tu were not enough.

Today, the Zhao family of Shengya gave Wei Tu an opportunity to have an equal dialogue, which was the Zhao family's "mercy".

only--

Wei Tu's next words surprised Zhao Huamin.

"Wei's dignified husband will not suffer this humiliation, even if it is just a show."

Weitu shook his head.

"I also ask fellow Taoist to tell you if there are other remedies. Wei is willing to give it a try."

He said in a consultative tone.

The family reputation of the Shengya Zhao family is important, but he does not think that the Shengya Zhao family has reached the point where it is absolutely necessary... but in his eyes, losing Zhao Qingluo's reputation and restoring the family's reputation is a cost-effective business. .

Of course, this is not the fault of the Shengya Zhao family.

After all, Zhao Qingluo agreed to this matter.

In other words, no one is at fault in this matter. Shengya Zhao Jialeng's public relations officer is right, and Zhao Qingluo is right in choosing this matter for her own future...

It’s the time that’s wrong!
  Before Yu Tong came to see him with Zhao Qingluo's letter, the relationship between him and Zhao Qingluo was not confirmed and they were just acquaintances.

Zhao Qingluo expressed her feelings to him twice, but he did not accept it and chose to refuse.

Regarding the marriage, the conditions offered by the Shengya Zhao family to Zhao Qingluo were quite generous. They only needed to lose some status in exchange for a future... If it were Wei Tu, I'm afraid he would agree.

——Before the relationship is confirmed, Zhao Qingluo is qualified to decide her own status.

In the letter, Zhao Qingluo had confessed the matter to Wei Tu without any concealment.

In other words, Wei Tu can choose to accept or reject such Zhao Qingluo, but he cannot accuse him of what he did.

That would be shameless.

Therefore, Wei Tu classified this matter as a timing fault rather than the fault of any party.

Secondly, there is another reason why the time is wrong.

If Wei Tu is still a small foundation-building monk without the strength comparable to the peak of Jindan, he may... not even come to Shengya Mountain, let alone talk to the Zhao family of Shengya.

Only those who have the strength are qualified to fight for it.

Otherwise, it is just incompetent rage.

"What Alchemist Wei said makes sense."

After a long silence, Zhao Huamin glanced at Wei Tu with admiration and said.

Even though Wei Tu's reaction was beyond her expectation, it was the same as her previous evaluation of him - he had a strong heart and was not an ordinary golden elixir monk.

"The marriage is decided by the ancestors, and I have no right to make the decision. But I am aware of the consequences..."

"Once this decision is made, even if the ancestor will not take into account the grievances of the younger generation and agrees to let you remedy it...but Qingluo's personal identity will probably stop from now on..."

Zhao Huamin said it very straightforwardly. Wei Tu was a man with a strong heart and did not want to suffer this humiliation, but this did not mean that Zhao Qingluo was willing.

With Wei Tu's financial resources, it may be far from being able to make up for Zhao Qingluo's losses after losing his status as the direct descendant of Shengya Mountain.

This means that Zhao Qingluo should give up his path.

Can Zhao Qingluo be willing?
  In a word.

Wei Tu wants to find other compensation measures and stop the marriage, okay!

But before that, Zhao Qingluo must be persuaded first instead of discussing with the Shengya Zhao family.

"If Qingluo doesn't want to, Wei is willing to leave Shengya Mountain and will not be entangled in this matter in the future."

Wei Tu shook his head and smiled, and said calmly.

Previously, Zhao Qingluo had not established a relationship with him, so she was qualified to deal with the issue of her status and agreed to the marriage of the Zhao family in Shengya.

But now, he is here...

If Zhao Qingluo doesn't want to give up, then there is no need for him to pester Zhao Qingluo anymore.

"Master Wei is open-minded."

Zhao Huamin once again admired that if she hadn't already been married, she might have fallen in love with this potential stock of Wei Tu at this time.

Affordable, put it down.

This sentence is easy to say, but there are very few monks who can actually do it. “Alchemist Wei, if Qing Luo is not a good man, there are many girls of the right age in our Shengya Zhao family who are willing to form a family with Alchemist Wei.”

Zhao Huamin thought for a while and said.

As the head elder of the family, she really admired Wei Tu very much.

At the beginning, she treated Wei Tu with courtesy and without any arrogance, because Wei Tu's cultivation level was not low.

Now, she sincerely admires Wei Tu's character.

Wei Tu smiled when he heard this but did not answer.

"Master Wei, I will make arrangements for you to meet Qing Luo."

Zhao Huamin stood up, waved his jade sleeves, and removed the sound isolation formation around him.

……

There are various secret cultivation realms in Shengya Mountain, and Zhao Qingluo, as a direct disciple, is eligible to use them for free.

Therefore, most of the time, Zhao Qingluo, a member of the Zhao family, was not on Shendu Island, but was practicing hard in the secret realm of cultivation.

Three days later.

Zhao Qingluo returned to Shendu Island.

Under Zhao Huamin's deliberate arrangement, Wei Tu and Zhao Qingluo met in a remote room.

"Is it you? Wei Tu!"

Zhao Qingluo opened the room. When she saw Wei Tu appearing in the room, her face immediately showed a somewhat complicated look, with both joy and sorrow.

In the end, these expressions turned into a faint sigh.

"Princess Qingluo County."

Wei Tu didn't know what to say for a moment. After pondering for a moment, he squeezed out this familiar name from his throat.

Even though he had been married before and had children, he felt that Xinghua was more like a relative of his childhood sweethearts, so it was not difficult to speak... unlike Zhao Qingluo, who still had this strange sense of distance.

This is a different kind of emotion between men and women.

"It would be great if you promised me when you were in Yunze Secret Realm or Qiyue Mountain."

Zhao Qingluo closed the door and sat on the seat opposite Wei Tu. She looked slightly dissatisfied as she said this.

Twenty-five years ago, she agreed to the family arrangement and agreed to marry Jiao Zihua.

After this incident, she had given up on Wei Tu, thinking that she would never see the Talisman Master who had "deceived" her many times in this life.

Unexpectedly, at this juncture, Yu Tong from Kang State handed her a letter from Wei Tu, asking her to write the reply to Wei Tu by accident.

After her third confession, Zhao Qingluo thought that it would disappear and never be heard from again.

Unexpectedly, twenty-five years later, Wei Tu would climb Shengya Mountain and see her.

"How dare Wei dare to climb up to the princess?"

Hearing Zhao Qingluo's complaining words, Wei Tu couldn't help but smile bitterly and touched his nose.

The Qiyue Zhao family was the number one cultivating immortal family in the Zheng Kingdom. Back then, he was only in the foundation building realm, so how could he dare to provoke Zhao Qingluo, the Zhao family's genius.

Frankly speaking, if Zhao Qingluo hadn't forced him to get married, he would still be unlikely to have a relationship with Zhao Qingluo.

"Okay! Let's not say any more. The past is in the past. From now on, don't call me Princess. Just call me Qingluo." Zhao Qingluo blushed slightly and changed Wei Tu's name for her.

"Qingluo?" Wei Tu looked at the beauty in front of him. She was wearing a white dress, and she was graceful and graceful, just like a Gushe fairy. Her beautiful eyes were flowing and radiant.

Although her appearance is slightly worse than Fu Linglong's, it is still stunning.

"What are you thinking about Fu Linglong at this time?"

Wei Tu sighed secretly and temporarily erased Fu Linglong's memory in his mind.

It's not that he is lecherous, but that Fu Linglong's appearance is so unforgettable. It seems to be blessed by profound Buddhist magical powers, which are more advanced than common charms.

"But don't be in a hurry to change your title now. I still need to confirm something with you. If you can't agree... just pretend that Wei has not been here today."

Wei Tu said in a decisive tone.

"What's the matter?" When Zhao Qingluo heard this, her face suddenly turned pale. She forced a smile and looked up at Wei Tu in front of her.

"In your marriage to Jiao Zihua, I was not your Taoist partner before and could not interfere. But if I were your Taoist partner, I would have to intervene in this matter."

Wei Tu's voice was low and he continued: "I have told Zhao Huamin before that as long as Princess Qingluo agrees to cancel the marriage, the Shengya Zhao family and I can discuss compensation measures."

Although Wei Tu knew clearly that even if Zhao Huamin and the Shengya Zhao family agreed to his compensation, the amount of compensation would most likely be an astronomical figure that he would simply not be able to afford, or the price would be quite high...

But what he wanted was Zhao Qingluo's attitude.

Today, he is willing to travel across the country to Shengya Mountain and risk his own life to discuss the matter with the Zhao family of Shengya.

If it were Zhao Qingluo, he would have to pay something.

Yes, Wei Tu understood that Zhao Qingluo had feelings for him, and her feelings were not low.

But Taoist couples in the world of immortality have to help and support each other throughout their lives. They can't go very far just relying on feelings.

Zhao Qingluo fell in love with him because he rescued him several times. Although Zhao Qingluo helped him later, it was mostly some help from a rich girl, and there was no critical decision in life.

Of course, if it were Wei Tu himself, it would be difficult for him to give up his future and choose to be with a future Taoist companion he liked.

Therefore, no matter what decision Zhao Qingluo made, Wei Tu would not complain.

Just... silent blessings.
