Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!

Chapter 89

Would you like to guess how long it will take me to reach the Yuan Ying(Nascent Soul) stage? Li Su inquired of the Saintess of the Silent Moon, who blinked in response. Li Su wasnt concerned about her discovering his slower cultivation progress since his unique system was a secret. Her thoughts were her own.

The Saintess of the Silent Moon wisely refrained from guessing. After years alongside Li Su, she learned how to navigate his unpredictable nature. Her silence was often preferable to risking his punishments.

While she didnt venture a guess, the Saintess couldnt ignore her astonishment at Li Sus rapid growth despite his recent lack of practice. It didnt add up. She pondered if he secretly cultivated at night, but he was still fathering many children each year, which was perplexing.

The Saintess believed Li Sus spiritual roots were exceptional, possibly surpassing Heavenly Spiritual Roots. Yet, she couldnt understand why he remained in the Flying Immortal Sect, considering his talents. She believed he should have joined more prestigious immortal sects, perhaps even sacred grounds, where his potential could flourish.

She toyed with the idea that Li Su might be a reincarnation of a great being or possessed by a powerful entity but couldnt reconcile his behavior with such a notion.

Unconcerned by her thoughts, Li Su handed her a book as a gesture of appreciation. The second half of Journey to the West piqued her interest. With more free time due to her halted cultivation, she developed an affinity for the stories in Li Sus study.

As the Saintess accepted the book, her feelings grew complex, and she began to sense the potential danger of her situation.

In the years she had spent by Li Sus side, the better she got to know him, the more she discovered that this man appeared flawless in every other way except for his one flaw of taking concubines. Li Su would be the ideal choice if she hadnt strayed into the demonic path and had been contemplating finding a Dao companion. Furthermore, after spending so much time with Li Su, the heart of the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon had inevitably been influenced. If she were an ordinary person, a woman staying several years with another man, especially one exceptionally outstanding, it would be hard not to develop feelings for him. And Li Su was indeed an outstanding man. Spending a few months with Li Su might lead to love if it were any other female cultivator, even a Foundation Establishment stage female cultivator.

The situation of the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon was unique. She was currently Li Sus captive. However, power could alter ones state of mind under certain circumstances. Her power was no longer present, and the most apparent change was that she couldnt muster resentment towards Li Su anymore. Despite Li Su defeating her and taking her captive, she surprisingly felt no bitterness towards him.

Over these years, apart from occasional punishments, Li Su hadnt treated her overly offensively. Moreover, she had grown accustomed to Li Sus punishments. Even now, Li Su occasionally played with her small hand and tasted her lips She didnt resist much anymore; sometimes, there were even peculiar sensations. These signs made the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon realize her predicament. Nevertheless, despite sensing the danger, she could do little about it.

The Li residence was abuzz with activity. Li Sus 200th birthday was drawing near, and the entire Li residence was adorned with decorations. The entire Martial Empire was in high spirits. Numerous people were coming to attend the celebration. The royal family of the Martial Empire was almost entirely present, and not just from the Martial Empire but also representatives from the other two secular countries had been sent to partake in Li Sus 200th birthday festivities.

It was rumored that even the royal families had dispatched princesses with spiritual roots to attend the celebration. Li Sus reputation in the regions of the three major immortal sects had become unparalleled. Even the sect leaders in the Nascent Soul stage didnt have names as illustrious as Li Sus. This was normal, as the sect leaders maintained a very low profile. Many disciples of the Flying Immortal Sect found it challenging to meet her, let alone ordinary people. In the three secular countries, ordinary folks didnt even know the sect leaders name, let alone whether the leader was male or female.

Li Sus 200th birthday celebration was much grander than it had been a hundred years ago when he had just reached the Foundation Establishment stage. At that time, although many guests came to celebrate, the number was limited, and there were few cultivators. This time, it had become a significant event in the cultivation world within the regions of the three major immortal sects. The entire Li family was bustling with activity. An exceptionally large number of immortals would be attending the celebration this time. Even common people would flock to participate.

Before reaching the age of 200, one cant attain the Nascent Soul stage. As Li Su observed the lively scene, he contemplated his current situation inside the Li residence.

The Heavenly Mountain Villa had expanded many times over, and the Li familys cities had grown astonishingly, housing tens of thousands of people, including the Li clan members and many servants and maids. Li Su knew that reaching the Nascent Soul stage before the age of 200 was nearly impossible. It simply wouldnt add up. However, he didnt consider it a regrettable matter.

The idea of reaching a specific stage before a certain age held little significance for him. Li Su wasnt one of those so-called prodigies who blindly chased speed without considering the fundamentals. True genius cultivators, when they had confidence in their abilities, might not necessarily prioritize speed. Instead, they focus on building a robust foundation and solidifying each cultivation stage. After all, many powerful individuals seek to re-cultivate the Foundation Establishment stage.

Therefore, the fact that he wouldnt reach the Foundation Establishment stage before his 200th birthday didnt bother Li Su. Approaching this milestone, he was still remarkably young and possessed boundless power.

Li Su couldnt help but reflect on the past two centuries, which had witnessed a significant leap in his cultivation journey. From reaching Foundation Establishment at one hundred, he had made rapid progress and now stood at the pinnacle of the Golden Core stage. With his current strength, combined with high-grade and top-grade spiritual artifacts, it was no exaggeration to say that those in the eighth and ninth ranks of the Golden Core stage, provided they could break through to the Nascent Soul stage, would probably avoid confronting him at the early Nascent Soul stage.

Even cultivators who had reached the early Nascent Soul stage after achieving the sixth or seventh rank of the Golden Core stage wouldnt be his match. He had also acquired secret techniques from the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon, significantly boosting his combat capabilities.
