Chapter 646 -227: “You’re Not Planning to Kill Me, Are You?”_3
Chen Qiu gave no response but turned his head towards the Liu Family’s young miss, who was kneeling at the side, and said indifferently.
“What do you think should be done?”
The kneeling Liu Family’s young miss beside the main seat hesitated for a moment before saying tentatively, “The Zhang Family of Tai City indeed has not made any substantial physical aggression against the Liu Family. If it were up to me, I think some actual compensation is needed. Annihilation seems a bit too severe.”
“Fine.”
Chen Qiu immediately stood up, looked towards the crowd, and said, “Then let’s settle it this way. You all can negotiate the compensation among yourselves. Family Head Liu, come with me. Let’s talk in detail about this matter of your ancestor.”
…
Liu Family, Ancestral Hall.
“Your Liu Family’s ancestor’s name was Liu Sanqian?”
Chen Qiu stood inside the ancestral hall, looking contemplatively at the tablets on the offering table, as the name sounded familiar to him. After all, he had heard it not so long ago, and even if he wanted to, he couldn’t forget it so soon.
It seems the husband of the old woman in the Merit Golden House was called Liu Sanqian.
Strange…
According to the old woman, after following Liu Sanqian from the Xuantian Continent to the Vast Continent thirty thousand years ago, she broke through to the Body Integration Realm, while Liu Sanqian’s cultivation halted at the late stage of Void Refining, and his life was near its end.
But here lies the problem: who left behind the inheritance? Whose child was it? The old woman’s?
That old woman certainly didn’t mention anything about bearing a child, and it seemed like she didn’t bring it up at all.
He shook his head and stopped pondering. He had originally thought that the Merit Golden House could lead to other continents, but given that it couldn’t break through the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, he lost interest in it.
“Is that all?”
Chen Qiu turned his head toward Family Head Liu, “Didn’t your ancestor leave behind anything else aside from this Chao Tian Sect elder token?”
“Nothing else.”
Family Head Liu firmly shook his head and said, “We can be certain of that because it has been passed down for so many years. The Liu Family has changed through many cities, so even if there were other things, they would have been lost over the long years.”
“Hmm,” Chen Qiu nodded slightly and did not speak further. He then expanded his Divine Sense rapidly encompassing the entire Handsome City. Finding nothing of interest, he had no intention of staying any longer.
He prepared to quickly return to the Heavenly Palace for cultivation.
Having said that,
he left Family Head Liu alone in the ancestral hall and stepped out himself, ready to start his journey.
Just as he walked out of the Liu Family’s Ancestral Hall, passing through a small courtyard with a pond, in which lotuses were planted and beside which stood an unidentified tree with extensive shade,
he had barely stepped into the courtyard,
when the Liu Family’s young miss in a white dress came to meet him.
“I…”
The Liu Family’s young miss, blocking Chen Qiu’s path, summoned her courage and looked at him with earnest eyes, biting her lip slightly, she said, “I am the fourth substitute for the Heavenly Dao Beauty; this is my value. Although I don’t know what my Heavenly Dao Beauty effect is, as long as you’re willing, I can let you, Senior, enjoy this Heavenly Dao Beauty effect.”
“Heavenly Dao substitute beauty?”
Chen Qiu raised his eyebrows slightly, hearing this term for the first time which piqued his curiosity, and then he inquired, “How do you know that you are the fourth Heavenly Dao beauty?”
Even though it was the first time he had heard this term,
he could guess what it implied.
The Heavenly Dao Beauty Ranking is fixed, and when someone on the ranking dies, someone else emerges as the new Heavenly Dao Beauty; in any case, the Heavenly Dao Beauty Ranking is always full, never vacant.

Still, he didn’t know that these substitute Heavenly Dao Beauties were pre-selected and even numbered; the fourth position likely meant that this Liu Family’s young miss was ranked fourth among the candidates.
If four on the list die, she would ascend to the ranking.
“I have my ways,” the Liu Family’s young miss shook her head, not elaborating, but looked intently at Chen Qiu, “But I am clear on one thing—if I become an official Heavenly Dao Beauty one day in the future,”
“it will certainly bring a lot of trouble to the Liu Family.”
“Even if I were to have the protection of the Chao Tian Sect, there would still be many who would do harm in secret.”
“Therefore, I want to be with you, so that in the future, Senior, you can enjoy that Heavenly Dao Beauty effect. In return, all you need to do is leave an opportunity for my father to break through the Void Refining stage.”
“I know what you are worried about, Senior. I know the Heavenly Dao Beauty effect can only be enjoyed if one truly loves a person. Don’t worry, I will try my best to sincerely fall in love with you.”
“…”
Chen Qiu looked calmly at the white-dressed woman before him, realizing what she was up to but…
“No need.”
He pushed the woman aside and continued through the courtyard, saying indifferently, “I don’t quite like such transactions. If it’s about love, I have no feelings for you. If it’s about value, you’ve set your price too high.”
“As for Heavenly Dao Beauty,”
“I don’t need that thing much; it’s more of a burden to me.”
Having said that,
Chen Qiu didn’t pause at all and immediately passed through the courtyard to the guest hall where he would meet with Fat Long and others, ready to set off.
No matter how good the Heavenly Dao Beauty effect, he wouldn’t want it because to gain a Heavenly Dao Beauty effect often means receiving a woman’s heartfelt love, which would make him feel bound.
And it would lead to many kinds of trouble.
