Chapter 224
Beyond Nascent Divinity!
Even though they hadn’t personally witnessed someone beyond Nascent Divinity, the fact that the Tianluo Sect was a Second-Rank Immortal Sect indicated that they must have Nascent Divinity experts. Furthermore, the extraordinary display by the leader of the Tianluo Sect had ignited speculation among the Golden Core cultivators of the Northern Realm.
After all, reaching the Nascent Soul stage required a high level of intelligence and wisdom. Could there be anyone at this stage who was not astute? This realization made the Northern Realm Golden Core cultivators sit up straight and contemplate the situation further.
At this point, Li Su had already flown out. Since a Nascent Soul cultivator had brought a group to attend his wedding and there was no ill intent, Li Su naturally wouldn’t turn them away.
“Tianluo Sect Leader, please,” Li Su extended the invitation. “Ha-ha, very well. These are the gifts I’ve prepared for you, my young friend. Chu Tao, you and the others, present them to our friend,” the Tianluo Sect Leader said with a chuckle.
The Tianluo Sect Leader summoned a few female disciples of the Tianluo Sect. These young women were all exceptionally beautiful, and their strength was quite formidable. The weakest among them was at the Golden Core stage, and there was even one who had reached Nascent Divinity.
“Yes, Sect Leader.” These female disciples were also curious about Li Su and discreetly observed him while delivering the gifts. Before their arrival, the Tianluo Sect Leader had already mentioned Li Su to these disciples. While he couldn’t force core disciples of the sect into marriage, he believed that Li Su’s image, temperament, cultivation, and character were all excellent. This gave him the confidence that these female disciples could help him cultivate a connection with Li Su.
The Beastmaster Sect, too, had come to present their congratulatory gifts to Li Su. Not only was that, but the head of the Beastmaster Sect was a young and beautiful woman who appeared to be in her twenties. She wasn’t the strongest in the sect. That title belonged to her grandfather, who had since retired from the frontline.
“Li Su, my grandfather asked me to give you this egg. Without immortal essence, we can’t hatch it, but you should be able to,” she said. The head of the Beastmaster Sect handed a red egg to Li Su. Curious, Li Su accepted it. This egg was somewhat special. Even though it was just an egg, if an ordinary person touched it, their hand would instantly be scalded.
“This is a fire-attributed spirit beast of extremely high grade. What it is specifically, we can only find out after it hatches,” the head of the Beastmaster Sect added.
“Thank you. Please come in...” Li Su accepted the egg and invited them to his wedding. He could tell that these Immortal Sects had an interest in recruiting him.
While he had no intention of joining any Immortal Sect, he saw no reason to decline their goodwill. Li Su had no plans to accept gifts without giving something in return. He intended to reciprocate with his gifts to avoid being indebted to anyone.
At that moment, another, even larger group of people approached. “The First-Rank Immortal Sect, the Returning Origin Sect, has come to congratulate our friend Li on his joyous wedding!” This group represented the Returning Origin Sect.
“A First-Rank Immortal Sect!”
“Is this the Returning Origin Sect where Senior Bihai is from? I didn’t expect them to come, too!”
The arrival of the Returning Origin Sect’s group caused quite a commotion. The Golden Core cultivators of the Northern Realm were finding it hard to sit still.
