Chapter 181

During the ceremony, Li Su maintained anonymity and ensured the black dragon girl didn’t recognize him. After the event, attendees from various sea clans also acknowledged Bai Ling’s power, given her impressive strength. As for whether she had revealed her millennia-long confinement, Li Su couldn’t be sure, but he believed she would keep it a secret. He now had a better understanding of the Mermaid clan’s strength.

The Mermaid clan, while relatively weak among North Sea clans, still possessed significant power, with a combined force of more than ten Nascent Soul-stage individuals. The weakest department had a Nascent Soul cultivator, and the strongest boasted three fourth-order Mermaids at the Nascent Soul level. Other sea clans had even more Nascent Soul cultivators, making their overall strength surpass that of the Northern Region.

Bai Ling informed Li Su of an upcoming major meeting among the sea clans, and she needed to prepare for it. Li Su, too, intended to leave and presented some specially crafted pills for Bai Ling and her daughter, using materials from the Mermaid clan’s territory.

Bai Ling was surprised that Li Su knew alchemy, and she asked if he could help her refine pills. Li Su agreed, and Bai Ling, wearing a crown, blushed as he touched her head. She indeed wanted his help.Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Li Su spent a month in Bai Ling’s palace, refining pills for her. Afterward, he left her palace and returned to the Northern Region. The North Sea clans were gradually recovering, which explained their increased activity. Li Su planned to inquire more about this situation during the upcoming sea clans’ assembly.

Returning to the Northern Region, Li Su visited the Li family’s residence and checked the system panel. He had remained at the first layer of the Nascent Soul stage for the past year, and his lifespan had decreased to less than a thousand years. Living beyond ten thousand years in the Nascent Soul stage was challenging, especially with his high-quality Purple Gold Primordial Spirit. However, with a continuous stream of rewards and more spiritual root descendants, Li Su was confident that his progress would be steady.

While he wasn’t in a rush, he continued taking concubines. By this point, most of the consorts Li Su accepted were female cultivators at the Foundation Building stage, so he had no concerns about their ability to keep pace. Cultivators dedicated the majority of their time to their training. Typically, except for the initial few years when they bore Li Su’s offspring, his consorts devoted most of their time to cultivation. Once they had completed their training, Li Su would spend time with them. The Northern Region still had plenty of female cultivators.

The situation in the Water Moon Sect was also exceptional, even though both sect leaders had become Li Su’s consorts, and some female cultivators had joined Li Su’s household. Consequently, many female cultivators within the Water Moon Sect aspired to marry Li Su. Seeing how considerate Liu Xinyue was for him only made Li Su like her even more. When you have such feelings, it’s only natural to act on them.

So, that night...

A few days later, Li Su was prepared to take another consort, but this time, it was a Golden Core female cultivator from the Water Moon Sect.

“Sect Leader, Senior Li is taking another consort~” Inside the Falling Cloud Sect, the Sect Leader received the news and promptly took action. Yes, even though Li Su was still taking consorts, his changed status made a difference. The Sect Leaders of the seven major sects would personally take action as long as they were not in seclusion. They used flying vessels that were faster, so the round trip took less time. However, these sect leaders soon felt frustrated because Li Su seemed insatiable.

The first month after returning from the North Sea, he took a Golden Core female cultivator as his concubine. Not even two months later, he took another. And less than two months after that, he took yet another.

“Is Senior Li still accepting Golden Core disciples from the Water Moon Sect?”

“Yes.”

Within the Falling Cloud Sect, the Sect Leader was starting to experience the same frustrations that some elders had felt in the past. In recent months, he had to make a trip every month or two. However, if he were to go into seclusion, it would be too conspicuous. Fortunately, after this wedding, Li Su dropped a subtle hint to these sect leaders, suggesting that in the future, sending an elder would suffice for taking concubines.
