The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 201 Take action
Upon seeing the family members arrive, Ning Lingwei instinctively tightened her grip on Chen Wentan's left hand.

"Literary circles! My parents are here."

"Don't be afraid. No one can separate us." Chen Wentan looked fearlessly at the Ning family members flying in the air.

“Ning Lingwei! Your parents and I have come here today to take you away. It’s outrageous that you’ve arranged a marriage without any matchmaker’s consent. You’ve disgraced the Ning family.”

As the Ning family member spoke, he suddenly unleashed his late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, overwhelming all the cultivators present.

Chen Jinshu had been in the Foundation Establishment stage for some time, and his spiritual consciousness and physical body were both quite good, so he was able to put up a fight against them.

Chen Qiaozhen had only recently established her foundation and it was not yet fully consolidated, so her lips were somewhat pale at this moment.

"Jinshu! The Ning family is coming with great force this time. Your second uncle and aunt are probably going to..."

"Help me hold them back for a bit. I've already sent a message to the late-stage Foundation Establishment senior brother who's guarding this place. He should be arriving soon."

Chen Jinshu whispered.

She had anticipated the arrival of the Ning family, so before the marriage ceremony began, she invited several late-stage Foundation Establishment senior brothers to come and support her. However, they could not easily leave the shop, so they could only stay for a short while.

It is best to call them only in the most urgent moments.

Ning Lingwei's identity is not only that of a member of the Ning family, but also one of the female members of the Ning family's direct line, which plays an extremely important role in the Ning family's marriage alliances with other families.

It is said that since the founding of the Ning family, the number of male members has been prosperous, but the number of female members has been scarce. Ning Lingwei's generation has only three women.

Ning Lingwei was the one with the highest aptitude and cultivation, which made her even more important to the Ning family.

She had also learned about the Ning family beforehand; they were merely a vassal force of a sect, and their only notable asset was their Golden Core cultivators.

However, Golden Core cultivators would not come rashly, so only Foundation Establishment cultivators would come. Of course, the Foundation Establishment cultivators could not be too weak, otherwise it would make the Ning family seem weak.

Therefore, a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator with higher cultivation level was sent today.

Even Golden Core families have such strict requirements for their female relatives. Wouldn't female relatives of Nascent Soul or even Divine Transformation families have to marry outsiders of the same level?
"Lingwei! Listen to your mother and quickly admit your mistake. As long as you sincerely admit your mistake, the ancestor will not punish you." Ning Lingwei's mother looked at the shabby arrangement below and was immediately extremely dissatisfied with the family her daughter was marrying into today.

Instead of marrying the legitimate son of a perfectly respectable Golden Core family, she chose a cultivator from such a small family who hadn't even reached the Foundation Establishment stage. It's simply a disgrace to the Ning family.

“Mother! I will not go back. I will return all the resources the Ning family gave me when I grow up.”

"Return it? How will you return it? You haven't even established your foundation yet. If you leave the family, how will you find the Foundation Establishment Pill to establish your foundation? Still indulging in wishful thinking?" The Ning family's First Elder sneered as he spoke, immediately locking Ning Lingwei with a divine sense. Then, with a wave of his hand, an invisible force slowly lifted her off the ground.

"Is the Ning family really that powerful?"

Chen Jinshu flicked the green zither he was holding in front of him, quickly deflecting the invisible force.

The Ning family elder's manipulation technique was severed, and before he could even sway, he looked at Chen Jinshu with a hint of surprise.

"Who are you? How dare you obstruct the Ning family?"

"My Ning family is the number one vassal family of the Xuan Yang Sect. There are three Golden Core Ancestors here. Who are you? Do you want to die by slandering my Ning family?"

The Ning family elder spoke with an arrogant tone, and his gaze toward Chen Jinshu held a hint of mockery.

"In the end, he's just the sect's number one lackey! Where does he get the audacity to act so arrogantly here?"

"you wanna die!"

Upon hearing the words "lackey," the Ning family elder's eyes immediately turned bloodshot, and he raised his hand to grab Chen Jinshu.

He considered the Ning family a source of pride, and now that he's been called a lackey, how can he bear it?

'Ding ding dong... dang dang...'

Chen Jinshu was not afraid. Even though the Ning family's elder's attacks were all aimed at her, she was still fearless because she was wearing a protective artifact given to her by her master.

The damage inflicted by a Foundation Establishment cultivator was merely a tickle; they could not easily touch her. She slightly curled the corners of her lips and swiftly plucked the strings of her zither with her right hand.

In an instant, the airflow in the entire palace seemed to pause for a moment, all controlled by Chen Jinshu's zither music.

The Ning family elder's face twisted slightly, and the hand that was reaching for Chen Jinshu froze in mid-air.

Then several vines rose from the ground and tightly bound the hand.

"Who do we have here? It's just a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the early stages. A mere trifle!"

The moment the Ning family's eldest elder released his powerful golden energy, it shattered the melody played by Chen Jinshu.

Chen Jinshu knew that if he didn't show some strength in the face of the Ning family's power, how could he make his second uncle's marriage continue?

She used her index finger to continuously prick thirteen acupoints, gradually lowering the pitch, while simultaneously pressing and rubbing two acupoints with her middle fingers.

"Sixth move of the Falling Sound! Mirage Reflections!"

In an instant, a ten-zhang-tall building materialized behind her, layer upon layer, with numerous palaces within the different buildings, allowing her to stand still like a pine needle.

It resembles a solid city wall.

Golden sound waves emanated from these towering buildings, distorting the surrounding scenery.

Boom! Boom!

Above the Ning family's eldest elder, a five-zhang-tall building appeared out of thin air, and a dark shadow crashed down on his head like a city in the sky.

The dark figures resembled giant black swords, exuding a chilling sword intent.

The gravity was increasing, and many cultivators were unable to breathe properly, their faces turning red from holding their breath.

The Ning family's eldest elder felt better because of his high cultivation level, but his face was still pale, as if he were seeing many illusions, making it difficult for him to distinguish between reality and illusion.

'Dangdang!'

Chen Jinshu immediately plucked the strings and ended the piece. The Ning family's elder was thrown several feet away by the sudden withdrawal of the musical wave.

My head feels dizzy.

Although her musical skills were not enough to subdue a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, they could certainly make him uncomfortable.

When the eldest elder of the Ning family came to his senses, he looked at the pairs of eyes around him and his cheeks immediately turned red with embarrassment.

"You deserve to die! You actually attacked directly. Don't blame me for this!"

The Ning family elder was absolutely certain that Chen Jinshu's release of such a powerful sound would consume a large amount of spiritual energy, making him unable to contend with him at this moment.

The Ning family's eldest elder vanished from his spot and reappeared surrounded by golden light, a golden spear thrusting towards Chen Jinshu's chest.

Clang! Clang! Chen Qiaozhen quickly raised her longsword to block the spear, but her cultivation level was ultimately too low, and her hands trembled from the impact.

"Trying to wade into troubled waters right after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage! You're asking for death!"

Without saying a word, the Ning family's eldest elder unleashed a red fiery palm strike at Chen Qiaozhen, sending her flying.

"You attacked my Xuanming Sect's inner disciples! Does your Ning family not want to exist anymore?"

Just as the Ning family's eldest elder was about to unleash his full power on Chen Jinshu, a voice even more authoritative than his suddenly rang out.

The newcomer was dressed in black, and his body radiated an undeniable starlight, like a king who had stepped out of a fairyland.

"Junior Sister Chen, your senior brother is late!"
