When he first had this thought, Chen Sheng was only in the early Innate realm and had yet to make a name for himself.
Even for a marriage alliance, it could only be with a daughter from a collateral branch.
So, while he had the idea back then, he never acted on it.
It wasn't until Chen Sheng earned the title of one of the Ning'an Ten Heroes that he recommended him to the Nie Family.
And now, the value Chen Sheng demonstrated was even more astonishing.
He had comprehended a Mental Realm before even reaching Profound Mastery.
By his own power, he overshadowed all other prodigies of his generation in Ning'an Prefecture.
He had even fought seven opponents at once, a feat that shook the Prefecture and earned him the title of 'Ning'an Prefecture's most talented individual in a century'.
The Nie Family would naturally place great importance on such an outstanding young man.
His earlier displeasure with Chen Sheng was, in fact, partly for this reason.
