My dreams can simulate the future.

Li Yuanshan blushed, realizing he couldn't fool Jiang Chen, so he started to play the victim.

"The problem with the Thousand Blade Golden Armor is that it has a lot of problems, but it does have the potential to kill Foundation Establishment cultivators. However, the Golden Gang Pendant only has defensive capabilities and no offensive capabilities."

"I can lower the price a bit more; you can give me four hundred spirit stones. This is already the purchase price; any lower and I'll lose money."

"The original owner of the Thousand Blades Golden Armor was a peak Core Formation cultivator. If this talisman didn't have this flaw, it would be worth at least two thousand spirit stones."

For ordinary cultivators, this item is not even as valuable as the Golden Armor Pendant.

However, Jiang Chen could use the Thousand-Blade Golden Armor without restriction in his dreams until he was completely familiar with it. In his hands, this talisman was worth far more than two thousand spirit stones.

He didn't try to haggle over the spirit stones with Li Yuanshan anymore: "Alright, I won't try to bargain anymore. If we're lucky, this Thousand-Blade Golden Armor might be able to withstand an attack from a Foundation Establishment cultivator."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanshan finally smiled: "Thank you for giving me face, Junior Brother Jiang."

After the money and goods were exchanged, Jiang Chen immediately left the shop and returned to his own courtyard, fearing that he would run into that scoundrel Yan Feng.

Once this guy recognizes you, he might summon the Black Wolf ahead of time, leading to another life-or-death battle.

After he left, Li Yuanshan wiped the sweat from his forehead, his heart filled with excitement.

"This thing has finally been sold. I initially thought this Thousand Blade Golden Armor Talisman was quite valuable, and that I could easily fool an unsuspecting rogue cultivator."

Unexpectedly, these rogue cultivators were either dirt poor or too shrewd; they hadn't sold them even after holding onto them for over two years.

"Luckily, I ran into Junior Brother Jiang, who's rich but naive. I sold it for four hundred spirit stones and even made a profit of one hundred."

-----------------

More than 500 li north of Black Stone Mountain Market, there is a majestic mountain range, the shape of which resembles a square cauldron.

As the sun rose, it shone on the mountain, gilding the square cauldron with a layer of gold.

This is the location of the Golden Cauldron Sect's mountain gate—Golden Cauldron Mountain.

The cave dwellings of the disciples of the Golden Cauldron Sect are mostly located near the Golden Cauldron Sect.

At this moment, in a cave at the foot of the southern slope of Jinding Mountain, a young man and a young woman were drinking tea.

The woman was extremely beautiful, and also had a pitiful and delicate air about her.

This woman was none other than Sun Yuhuang, the daughter of Sun Yunlong, the head of the Sun family. She was the one who married the Foundation Establishment manager of the Golden Cauldron Sect.

The woman took out an envelope: "Brother, this is a letter my father wrote to me. I really can't make up my mind."

Grandpa always said you were the "prodigy of the Sun family," and that the family's rise depended entirely on your abilities. Please help me decide what to do.

The young man, with striking features and a dignified appearance, was none other than Sun Yuhu, a member of the Sun family. However, his father was not Sun Yunlong, but the deceased Sun Yunjing.

Sun Yuhu took the envelope, glanced at the letter, and then frowned.

After reading the letter, he slammed it on the table.

"How could Second Uncle be so muddle-headed? There should be a limit to spoiling your son, right? Yu Lin's talent is simply not enough to be accepted into the Golden Cauldron Sect."

Coupled with his arrogant nature, even if he gets in, he'll only offend people and bring trouble to the family.

Upon hearing this, Sun Yuhuang's eyes filled with tears, like pear blossoms in the rain: "Brother, I know Yulin is useless, but he is still my own brother from the same mother."

Furthermore, with my father pleading with me, I simply couldn't bring myself to do it.

Sun Yuhu glanced at her and asked, "Little sister, how important do you think you are to your brother-in-law?"

Sun Yuhuang was stunned for a moment, then sighed softly: "I am just your brother-in-law's concubine. Although he does not have a formal Daoist partner, I am the most favored."

But a concubine is never the principal wife; her status is only slightly higher than that of a servant. That's why I dare not easily speak to him.

Upon hearing this, Sun Yuhu looked helpless: "Sister, you should know that the reason your brother-in-law took you as a concubine is because of your appearance."

But you are already over thirty. Even though we cultivators age slower than ordinary people, our appearance will still show obvious signs of aging after the age of fifty.

Will your brother-in-law still pamper you like this then?

Upon hearing this, Sun Yuhuang's face was filled with bitterness, and a crystal tear rolled down her beautiful cheek from the corner of her eye.

"I know beauty fades quickly, and your brother-in-law is focusing all his attention on cultivation. What am I supposed to do now?"

Sun Yuhu frowned deeply. None of his family members were easy to deal with; he had to take charge of everything.

"There are only two ways to keep your brother-in-law from neglecting you. One is to use the resources he gives you to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage as soon as possible."

With your talent, breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm is not impossible.

"Secondly, you should give birth to a talented cultivator for your brother-in-law as soon as possible. Then, you will gain status through your son, and your position will be incomparable to what it was before."

"Both of these methods can make you your brother-in-law's legal wife, but before that, you must never put him in a difficult position. Otherwise, you might lose his favor prematurely."

"You should know in your heart how to choose."

Sun Yuhuang nodded: "I understand. I won't let anyone else know about this letter. But how should I reply to my father?"

Sun Yuhu sighed: "Your reply is useless. I will go back to the family myself and persuade Second Uncle to put the family first."

Having said that, he immediately left the cave and headed out of the sect.

-----------------

In the evening, Sun Yuhu returned to the Sun family compound located in Heishishan Fangshi and went straight to the main house.

Upon entering the house, he found Sun Yunlong and Sun Yunhe discussing something.

Without wasting words, he immediately slammed the letter on the table and demanded, "Second Uncle, did you write this letter?"

Seeing his impolite manner, Sun Yunlong was angry, but dared not say anything.

After all, Sun Yuhu was the heir appointed by the old patriarch and is currently a disciple of the Golden Cauldron Sect, enjoying high prestige within the family.

If Sun Yuhu hadn't voluntarily stepped down, it wouldn't have been so easy for Sun Yunlong to become the head of the family.

At this moment, he could only swallow his anger and said with a smile, "This is also for the sake of the family. It would be a great thing if our Sun family could have another member join the Golden Cauldron Sect."

"Besides, by asking your brother-in-law to step in and help Zhao Changzhou, we can also do Zhao Changzhou a favor. Why not?"

Seeing his self-righteous and foolish appearance, Sun Yuhu was so angry that his teeth itched.

"You only know that Zhao Changzhou has powerful backers, but you don't know that Zhao Changzhou's affairs involve the struggle between two major factions within the Golden Cauldron Sect."

Both factions have several Core Formation cultivators supporting them, and the two sides are locked in a fierce conflict that even their sect leaders cannot control.

"Not to mention my brother-in-law, even his Core Formation master wouldn't dare to get involved in this kind of thing."

By writing this letter to Yu Huang, asking her to plead with her husband, you're essentially sending him into a fire. The moment Yu Huang speaks, any remaining affection between them could be completely destroyed.

"Our Sun family's patron has fallen."

"Fortunately, Sister Yuhuang didn't go directly to her brother-in-law for help, but instead asked me to come up with a solution first, which prevented a major disaster from happening."

Upon hearing this, Sun Yulong turned pale, and large beads of sweat streamed down his face.

He said in a trembling voice, "I never imagined that Zhao Changzhou had so much trouble behind him. Fortunately, you stopped Yu Huang in time, otherwise our Sun family would have been in deep trouble."
