The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity Chapter 112 - 109: Chu Yan, why don’t you just accept them?
After lunch, Lan Xi took them to the cetery.
The cetery wasn’t far from the Gulan Clan, and they arrived quickly.
Qin Zhao walked around and found it was indeed the cetery of so notable figure.
The cetery was large, containing several burial chambers, but only two had been opened.
Qin Zhao didn’t sense any problems here, except that the funerary objects in the opened chambers were gone, probably stolen by tomb robbers.
Neither Tengshe nor Hellhound sensed the presence of the Dragon Horn here, so they headed back first.
Actually, Qin Zhao suspected that the Dragon Horn might be in the Gulan Clan.
But he didn’t understand why Kang Youfu didn’t go tomb robbing but went to the Gulan Clan instead.
The people of the Gulan Clan were also very secretive about Kang Youfu, everyone claiming ignorance.
When they arrived near Lan Xi’s ho, they hadn’t yet entered, discovering that many won had gathered outside, peeking into Lan Xi’s house with excited expressions as if watching a spectacle.
Qin Zhao’s steps faltered, a bad premonition washing over him.
Lan Xi ran ahead, asking, "Auntie, what are you all doing around my house?"
The woman spoke animatedly, "Among the guests you brought ho last night, there was a man. The day of the Goddess’s sacrifice is almost here, we finally have hope!"
Lan Xi’s expression changed dramatically, and she pushed through the crowd and ran inside.
In the room where Qin Zhao and Chu Yan were staying, the door was open. Clan Leader Lan Shu and two elders were inside, sitting around a strikingly handso and aloof man.
His mother stood outside, her face pale and fraught with anxiety.
"Mom, how did they find out?" Lan Xi approached and asked softly.
"The neighbor, Sister-in-law ng, saw you co back last night. She ca over to ask if there was a man in the house. I denied it, but she didn’t believe and brought the Clan Leader over," her mother replied.
Qin Zhao ca over, just in ti to hear this.
Inside, three won were smiling warmly at Chu Yan.
Qin Zhao’s expression turned exceptionally cold, feeling sowhat displeased internally.
Chu Yan saw her co back and quickly stood up, addressing the others, "My wife is back, and I need to discuss this matter with her."
Lan Shu nodded, then looked outside at Qin Zhao.
She smiled and said to Qin Zhao, "Miss Qin, our place is really not bad. We live suited to the sun’s schedule, close to nature which brings peace to the soul. If you’re willing to stay here, I could make you the third elder."
"You often have floods here, don’t you? I wouldn’t want to be sleeping soundly at night only to be flooded out."
Qin Zhao’s attitude was noticeably hostile compared to before.
Lan Shu didn’t mind and said to Chu Yan, "Please give it so thought."
She then left with the two elders and instructed the other people at the door to disperse.
Qin Zhao looked leisurely at Chu Yan, "What did they say to you?"
Chu Yan’s expression turned strange, "They want to stay because there are no n in the clan, and if I stay, all the won of the Gulan Clan would be mine."
Qin Zhao: "......"
Honestly, there were quite a few beauties in the Gulan Clan.
The Clan Leader and those two elders, though in their thirties, were still full of charm and had an excellent deanor, more attractive than so younger girls outside.
And besides, the Gulan Clan also had young and beautiful girls.
This was beyond polygamy.
For any man coming here, it was like gaining a harem.
Qin Zhao sinisterly asked Chu Yan, "Are you secretly delighted?"
Chu Yan replied helplessly, "What would I do with so many won? Besides, I’m already married and couldn’t possibly have designs on other won. I just found the situation odd, so I continued talking to them."
Qin Zhao cald down for a mont, thinking about the way the Clan Leader and the elders looked at Chu Yan.
It was as if they saw a plate of delicious braised pork; there wasn’t any romantic emotion involved.
Thus, it wasn’t because they had fallen for Chu Yan but because they had other motives.
"What else did you find out?"
"Nothing, that’s it. But they seed really anxious, one of the elders said he hoped the sacrifice this month would include a wedding. Once the wedding is done, I would be entitled to all the won of the Gulan Clan."
Chu Yan noticed Qin Zhao’s icy stare and added, "I think there’s sothing off about this sacrifice."
Qin Zhao called Lan Xi over, "What’s the secret here? It’s about ti, can’t you tell us?"
Knowing the secret might reveal where the Dragon Horn is.
"Have you ever t Kang Youfu?"
Lan Xi couldn’t help but sigh. He had heard what Chu Yan just ntioned.
"The last man who ca here was Kang Youfu. The Clan Leader told him the sa thing, that once the ritual wedding was carried out, he would own the whole Gulan Clan.
He was very excited, even more eager than the Clan Leader."
Thinking of that man, who had a sly and rat-like face, Lan Xi didn’t have a good impression.
"Then the wedding took place and he never returned."
In broad daylight, Lan Xi’s statent eerily chilled the atmosphere.
With so many beauties in the Gulan Clan, most n would probably be tempted by such an offer.
Even being away from modern society, having so many beauties surrounding him every day would be like a gift from heaven for an ordinary man like Kang Youfu.
Qin Zhao suddenly asked, "Was he sacrificed?"
"Yes, the Clan Leader sacrificed him to the Tianhe Goddess to prevent our place from flooding. But even after sacrificing Kang Youfu, the floods still happened, so they thought the offering wasn’t good enough."
After all, Kang Youfu had a sly and rat-like appearance, it was normal for the Tianhe Goddess to be dissatisfied.
Lan Xi couldn’t help but look at Chu Yan, the Tianhe Goddess would definitely be very pleased with him.
"Pfft..."
Qin Zhao couldn’t help but laugh.
She had heard about sacrificing brides before, but sacrificing n was new to her.
"Do you an to say every ti there’s flooding, you sacrifice a man to the Goddess?"
These won were ruthless indeed, no wonder there are no n in the tribe.
"Yes, we’ve worshipped the Tianhe Goddess since we were little, we can’t anger her."
"Hasn’t any man tried to escape? Those who knew their fate must have tried to band together to fight against them, right?"
"The Priest possesses the Divine Power bestowed by the Tianhe Goddess, they can’t escape. Even if they die, we will send their bodies to the place where the Tianhe Goddess resides."
Tengshe then asked, "Could the Dragon Horn be with the Tianhe Goddess?"
He had been wandering around the clan area since morning but hadn’t sensed the exact location of the Dragon Horn.
If the Dragon Horn was here, he should be able to feel it.
"Since Kang Youfu was sacrificed, it might indeed be there."
Qin Zhao stroked her chin, deep in thought.
"Lan Xi, can you take us there?"
Lan Xi shook his head, "I can’t find that place, even the Priest doesn’t know."
"Then how do you send n over?"
"We place the man on a small boat, and the Priest uses the divine power granted by the Goddess to cast a spell on it, the boat then floats along the river to where the Goddess resides."
"In that case, couldn’t they escape midway?"
"The Priest uses a special thod to trap them on the boat."
Hearing this, Qin Zhao suddenly clapped her hands.
"I have a great idea."
"What?"
Chu Yan and Tengshe looked at her, and Lan Xi also watched her intently.
Qin Zhao grinned at Chu Yan, "Since they have taken a liking to you, why not...
just give in to them?"
Chu Yan: "???"
Tengshe’s eyes lit up, sheepishly saying, "Dad, I don’t mind having a few more moms!"
Chu Yan: "Heh, I do."
