Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!-Chapter 319
Chapter 319
“Saintess, a flying ship from the Purple Gold Holy Land, has traversed the passage of the Azure Abyss Realm. They’re headed our way. The Dongfang Family members should be on their way!”
Within the Li Family’s residence, inside a cave-dwelling, the voice of a young woman in green attire echoed.
Saintess Zixue opened her eyes. She had spent over a century within Li Su’s cave dwelling, patiently awaiting him. Her enduring wait demonstrated her deep respect and dedication to him. Besides occasional visits during Li Su’s marriage ceremonies, she devoted most of her time to cultivation, progressing from the Seventh Layer of Refinement to the Eighth.
After a century of waiting, the woman from the Dongfang Family was finally making her move. Having gained control of the Dongfang Family, her main concern was Dongfang Xue with the Immortal Spirit Root. This time, she would undoubtedly launch a significant offensive.
“Saintess, based on my estimate, they should have at least one fusion stage cultivator. Additionally, the number of Refinement stage cultivators will be substantial, guarding against interference from the Returning Origin Sect,” the young woman in green speculated on the woman’s actions.
A fusion stage cultivator and a group of Refinement stage cultivators would pose a formidable challenge. Engaging in a war with the Returning Origin Sect, a first-class immortal sect, wouldn’t be the Purple Gold Holy Land’s favored approach. Fusion stage cultivators were difficult to kill, and if they escaped, it could lead to ongoing troubles.
The young woman believed the primary target was still Dongfang Xue. Recruiting a fusion stage cultivator from the Purple Gold Holy Land might be to guard against the Returning Origin Sect.
“Saintess, I assume that woman has also enlisted individuals from other places to avoid the Purple Gold Holy Land’s reluctance to antagonize Li Su,” the young woman speculated once again.
“Exactly. Even if the Purple Gold Holy Land discovers Li Su’s talents, they would likely continue to obstruct the Returning Origin Sect,” the young woman added.
“In that case, the woman’s people can then act against Dongfang Xue. The Dongfang Family has split, and there may be Refinement stage cultivators by Dongfang Xue’s side,” the young woman analyzed the circumstances for Saintess Zixue.
She possessed remarkable intelligence, even analyzing the situation involving Refinement stage cultivators who joined the Flying Immortal Sect.
“Based on my understanding of the Purple Gold Holy Land, they might be more overbearing. After all, only the Purple Gold Holy Land and the Taixu Holy Land have Immortal Realm guardians,” the young woman added.
Saintess Zixue had already risen to her feet.
The other party had already reached the Azure Abyss Realm, and with the speed of the holy land’s flying ship, they should arrive here within a month or two. She decided to forgo her cultivation and prepare to inform Li Su.
“Sage, let’s not rush into action for now. Maintaining a passive stance is the best choice. When that woman’s people arrive, you must exercise restraint. If you go out, it will raise suspicion among the Purple Gold Holy Land’s people,” the young woman in green attire advised.
The young woman in green quickly restrained Saintess Zixue. Saintess Zixue was undeniably powerful, a prodigy among prodigies. However, the issue was that their Saintess was too straightforward.
On the other hand, after receiving the message from the sect’s head aunt, Li Su immediately had the descendants of the Li family, who were still active outside, go into hiding. Even though the likelihood of that woman targeting his descendants was low, Li Su still needed to be cautious, especially since it was likely that the demonic cultivators would also be coming. This time, things were getting quite lively.
As the days went by, Li Su had become thoroughly familiar with the semi-artifact he had crafted, and he had also created some talismans. He further improved the Li family’s grand formation. This time, the main purpose of the grand formation was for defense. Whether it was the woman from the Dongfang Family or the demonic cultivators, they were now aware of the formidable nature of the Elemental Magnetic Barrier. They were likely to have prepared corresponding methods for their attack.
Soon, a month had passed, and the Northern Realm remained calm. There were no significant disturbances in the Western Sea either. It appeared that the Eastern Sea’s aquatic clans were still occupied with absorbing the South Sea. As for the North Sea, it was currently relatively calm and not drawing much attention from the Eastern Sea.
However, on this day, some of the vigilance formations located in the southeast part of the Peak of Hopeful Immortality, where Li Su was situated, were triggered.
“After the previous experience of a sudden attack by the demonic cultivators, Li Su had taken significant time to set up these vigilance formations.”
“Have they arrived?” Li Su murmured. These vigilance formations didn’t have a wide range of influence, but ordinary people did not easily trigger them. It was precisely because of their limited effect that they were less likely to be noticed. More often than not, when others passed through that area, they didn’t notice it. Simplicity was often equated to effectiveness. This was intentional on Li Su’s part. If the formations were too far away, he couldn’t rely on them to block the enemy, but they could serve as a silent vigilance mechanism.
Soon, more of the vigilance formations were triggered one after another. This made Li Su realize that the demonic cultivators were indeed here. These individuals were not moving at high speeds, likely to maintain secrecy as they quietly infiltrated. They would then launch a sudden attack. The demonic cultivators had arrived! They were aiming to reach the vicinity of Luo City, and it would take them some time to get there. The people from the Dongfang Family were probably closing in as well.
After another half a month, another unexpected situation occurred. That was right. Peak Master Dieyun was actually attempting to break through to the fusion stage! This was quite an extraordinary development. Ever since giving birth to Li Die, Peak Master Dieyun had been in seclusion. After a hundred years had passed, she had finally reached the last step. This step was not an easy one for her.
In fact, if Peak Master Dieyun hadn’t become one of Li Su’s women, benefiting from the system’s enhancements and increased probabilities of breaking through realms and bottlenecks, it would have taken her even longer to reach this stage.
“Peak Master,” within the cave-dwelling, Li Su saw Peak Master Dieyun. At this moment, she was at a critical point.
“Li Su, today, I will be attempting to reach the fusion stage right here. Please protect me,” Peak Master Dieyun looked at Li Su and said.
“Alright,” Li Su replied decisively.
“Take this. If you encounter a powerful enemy, activate it, and the sect master will be able to come over,” Peak Master Dieyun handed Li Su a small, fish-shaped talisman.
The strength of the sect master from the Returning Origin Sect should indeed be formidable. Li Su accepted the talisman.
Peak Master Dieyun didn’t say more, and Li Su opened the restrictions for her. Her figure shot up into the sky. Soon, a unique fluctuation emanated from her.
As soon as this fluctuation spread out, it was sensed by Saintess Zixue.
“Saintess, it’s Peak Master Dieyun. She’s attempting to break through to the fusion stage.”
“Why is she trying to do this now?” The young woman in green clothing’s expression changed.
