The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 2: Marriage with the Broken-armed Son
The next day, in the family lobby.

In the gray sky, snowflakes were falling all over the sky, fluttering and interweaving into a white curtain.

The pavilions and towers in the wind and snow have lost their former tranquility and become noisy.

Many female cultivators from the Chen family who had volunteered were summoned here to participate in the decision-making on the marriage alliance with the foundation-building family.

Generally, as long as you register, the family will arrange a husband for you, but the husbands assigned to you vary based on their appearance, cultivation, and talent.

Chen Jinshu didn't want to come, but she also received a notice from the clan leader.

Moreover, this opportunity was obtained by her second uncle. Even if she didn't want to, she could refuse it in person, otherwise it would be a loss of face for her second uncle.

My second uncle, Chen Wentan, is the younger brother of my father. He is quite talented and is now at the eighth level of Qi training. It is possible for him to build a foundation and he still has some say in the clan.

"Forget it! Let's put this matter to rest and practice well!"

Last night, when she was practicing, she accidentally activated the birthmark on her forehead. Unexpectedly, it was not an ordinary object, but a lotus petal.

It's just that they are not awakened at birth.

When the original owner took the Huanyan Pill, a large amount of violent medicinal power rushed into her body, almost destroying her body.

Fortunately, the lotus petals on her forehead also awakened under the power of the medicine, absorbed the medicinal power, and also made her awaken to the mystery in the fetus.

After a night of research, she gained some understanding of the lotus petal birthmark.

After being absorbed by the lotus petal birthmark, spiritual objects such as spirit stones will be transformed into more refined spiritual power, which is much more compressed and pure than simply absorbing spiritual power in the dantian, and also faster.

Moreover, this pure spiritual power can also improve physical fitness.

……

"Mom! The clan leader summoned me to the lobby! I'm going first."

Chen Jinshu wore a light blue long dress and found a veil to cover her face from her storage bag.

"Mom will accompany you."

Mrs. Chen Wu was afraid that her daughter might have an accident, so she also wanted to go with her.

As soon as the two of them arrived at the family lobby, many female relatives who had arrived earlier looked over.

"Why would an ugly girl like her participate in a marriage? Doesn't she have any self-awareness?"

The person who spoke was the Great Elder's third daughter, Chen Qiaozhen. She had good talent and looks, and was one of the candidates who was expected to marry the eldest son of a foundation-building family.

"Sister Zhen! You just came out of seclusion and you don't know yet? This ugly woman actually tried to take the Beauty-Huan Dan to change her fate! She almost got herself killed!" The female cultivator of the Chen family covered her face and sneered, her eyes full of contempt.

Upon hearing this, the female cultivators of the Chen family behind him covered their faces and laughed quietly.

Chen Qiaozhen was silent for a moment, and the look she gave Chen Jinshu was filled with coldness and sarcasm.

Then he gently warned the laughing female cultivator, "Shu'er! She has no shame. We represent the Chen family, so we must not be so disrespectful."

"Sister Zhen, Shu'er knows she's wrong!"

"Shu'er! Don't think too much! Second uncle has already asked the clan leader for you!" Chen Wu felt uncomfortable when she heard this. Worried that her daughter would think too much, she stroked the back of her hand.

She had thought about helping her daughter remove the birthmark, but she had tried every possible method but to no avail.

Seeing this, Chen Jinshu didn't say much. He stood in the corner and shook off the snow on his body.

It is truly tragic that such female cultivators originally had a bright future, but were trapped in the family's marriage arrangement.

A moment later, clan leader Chen Zhixing came with several elders who were responsible for drawing portraits. They sketched the portraits of these female cultivators and sent them to the various families for them to choose from.

When the female cultivators of the Chen family saw the clan leader coming, their eyes lit up and they began to act shyly and pretentiously.

Chen Jinshu was really shocked when he looked at the scrolls, and an inexplicable sadness rose in his heart.

How is this different from 'selecting a concubine'?
"Line up and come forward one by one for the elder to draw your portrait. This is closely related to your future path of cultivation, so don't slack off!" Clan leader Chen Zhixing cleared his throat and said to the female cultivator of the Chen family.

Upon hearing this, the female cultivators of the Chen family obediently stood behind the long line headed by Chen Qiaozhen. Seeing this, Chen Qiaozhen smiled triumphantly at Chen Jinshu, who was standing in the corner, as if she had achieved a great victory.

Chen Jinshu looked confused. What was there to be proud of?

"Jinshu is here?" Chen Zhixing glanced at Chen Jinshu standing motionless in the corner and immediately said in a gentle tone.

"Jinshu greets the clan leader!"

"Chen Wu greets the clan leader!"

"I have discussed with a group of elders and asked for the opinions of various families. I have found a marriage for you! The other party is the eldest son of the Lin family. But this person is missing..." Chen Zhixing's originally peaceful tone became a little hesitant.

"What's missing?"

"Missing a right arm!"

"The eldest son of the Lin family...with a broken arm?"

Chen Jinshu was stunned when she heard this, her eyes burning with worry. How could she marry into such a family? Was she going to be treated like a slave?
"Don't look down on him. This boy is the legitimate son of the Lin family. If he has a chance to obtain the flesh-regenerating pill, he can be resurrected." Chen Zhixing said with a sigh.

The eldest son of the Lin family failed in a clan competition held by the Lin family and had his arm bitten off by a monster.

His own strength has also reached the seventh level of Qi training.

Now, in order to let their legitimate son give birth to offspring, the Lin family came to the Chen family to seek marriage. After some negotiations, the elders of the Chen family arranged this marriage for Chen Jinshu.

After all, he is the legitimate son of the Lin family. If he gives birth to offspring, he can ensure the prosperity of future generations and bring many benefits to the family.

Chen Jinshu sneered. How could she not know about the muscle-growing pill? In order to change her appearance, she had even searched for pills with similar effects.

The Flesh-Growing Pill is a second-grade, top-grade elixir, which is no less effective than the Foundation-Building Pill. This legitimate son is likely to become an abandoned one.

Would the Lin family be willing to give up so many resources?

This will only become a reproductive tool for the Lin family's eldest son.

"Shu'er? No matter what you plan to do, mother supports you. Just don't do anything stupid again!" Chen Wu took her daughter's hand, stroked it gently, with a peaceful look on her face.

"Isn't it perfect for an ugly girl with a broken hand? What are you still hesitating about? Besides, he's the legitimate son! Marry him and prepare to enjoy life!" The female cultivator of the Chen family was called Chen Jinli, her eyes were sharp and narrow, and her eyebrows seemed to be looking at the horizon.

Chen Jinshu took a glance, and her dark eyes, which had been calm till now, suddenly flashed with a barely perceptible coldness. This person was the one she heard that day saying that Huanyan Dan could change one's appearance and make one more beautiful.

This girl's father, Chen Wenshan, was unable to marry her mother, so he secretly hated her and was often hindered by her father. Now he is instigating his daughter to do such a dirty thing to her. No wonder her mother looked down on her father back then.

It is true that like father, like daughter.

"If it's so good, why don't you go? I'll give it to you. It's just right for a waste like you with five spiritual roots." Chen Jinshu sneered when he saw the person who was speaking.

Many female cultivators nearby lowered their heads and sneered when they heard this.

"You!" Chen Jinli was instantly embarrassed when she heard that. Her eyes were red like a rabbit as she looked at the clan leader, with the corners of her lips curved downwards. If a beauty acted like this, she would appear aggrieved and pitiful.

She had an average appearance, and was becoming uglier and uglier, like a pumpkin.

Clan leader Chen Zhixing felt a little embarrassed when he saw this. He coughed and said, "The Lin family said that whoever marries into the family will receive an extra fifty spirit stones per month and two bottles of Qi training pills!"

When many people heard this, they were surprised. If they were married to other families, they might only get this much money in two or three months, but after marrying this legitimate son, they could get more money in just one month than in two months.

Suddenly, everyone looked at Chen Jinshu with a little more envy. He was really lucky to have an uncle in the clan who was at the eighth level of Qi training to help him speak for himself.

Chen Jinshu was also a little surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect that the Lin family would be so fond of this legitimate son. Unfortunately, she had already made up her mind and devoted herself to Taoism.

"I'm sorry, clan leader! Jinshu is devoted to Taoism! I came here only to cancel the marriage!" Chen Jinshu spoke righteously, his voice sonorous and powerful, and the originally slightly cold winter day actually became a little more warm.

Chen Qiaozhen's expression froze slightly when she heard that, and she looked at Chen Jinshu as if he were a fool, with an innate sense of superiority and arrogance.
