Chapter 503: Chapter 221: The Jade Talisman of Creation! The Taichu Realm! The Cosmic Sea! Jiang Baiye’s Inborn Constitution! Long Yue Evolves into a True Dragon_2
No wonder Lin Xiao could rise swiftly; it’s all thanks to this Jade Talisman.
If he had progressed along a normal trajectory, Lin Xiao might have been the child of destiny in the Endless Yuankun Domain, advancing with great strides with this Jade Talisman in Qianyuan Divine Province. Then he’d look for the other fragments of the Jade Talisman of Creation within the domain.
Lin Xiao would have gone on to become an emperor, transcend tribulations to become an immortal, and ascend to the True Immortal stage. Perhaps, he would have even stepped out of the Xuanshen Sword Mountain to explore the more vast and Boundless Universe.
Unfortunately for Lin Xiao, he encountered Han Li, and Lin Xiao’s opportunity became Han Li’s opportunity; it became a great fortune for the entire Han Mansion.
“Lin Xiao, you’re truly a great benefactor.”
Han Li chuckled quietly, meeting Lu Qingxuan’s gaze with a smile on his face—he was very pleased with this woman.
Her aptitude, appearance, and cultivation level were secondary in Han Li’s view; the key was that she brought forth Lin Xiao, the “child of destiny,” delivering a great surprise to the ancestor of the Han family.
Killing Lin Xiao and the young master of the Howling Sky Tiger Clan was effortless for Han Li, akin to picking up a powerful imperial treasure for free.
The sudden glance from Han Li made Lu Qingxuan’s heart flutter, her stunning face instantly blushing with a touch of redness.
Standing atop Chengdao Peak, Lu Qingxuan took a casual breath and could sense the rich and pure Spiritual Energy here, improving her cultivation a bit. This was thousands, even tens of thousands of times stronger than the Tian Ya Sect.
If she were still in Tian Ya Sect, it would have taken her ten years to break through to the Hollow Void Stage. However, staying on Chengsheng Mountain and merely absorbing Spiritual Energy would allow her to break through within a year.
Lu Qingxuan had visited the great Capital City and experienced the density of its Spiritual Energy. Even within the Imperial Palace, it couldn’t compare to this mountain, not even one percent of it.
As for Chengsheng Mountain, Lu Qingxuan felt extremely satisfied. Just the density of the Spiritual Energy here made marrying into the Han Mansion a stroke of luck; she suspected that not even the Great Holy Land Schools could match Chengsheng Mountain.
Her fiancé, Han Li, had also concealed his cultivation level. He might be a Divine Yuan Realm martial emperor, an elder of Bai Yujing, and extraordinarily handsome to boot—who wouldn’t be smitten upon meeting him?
Lost in her thoughts, Lu Qingxuan couldn’t help but steal glances at Han Li with her peripheral vision, spotting the Jade Talisman in his hand that seemed to come from Lin Xiao. But Lu Qingxuan was undisturbed, lost in delightful fantasies.
“Han… Old…”
With her heart racing, Lu Qingxuan stumbled over her words, trying to address Han Li but unsure how to refer to him.
Was it too impersonal to call him “Han Li” or “Ancestor”?
To call him “husband” directly wouldn’t be right either; she hadn’t married into the family yet.
“Qingxuan, there’s no need to be so formal—just call me Han Li. Relax, yes, just like that…”
As Han Li spoke, he unconsciously wrapped his arms around Lu Qingxuan and then bent down to kiss her tender, glossy, moist red lips.
Lu Qingxuan was caught off guard, unsure where to put her hands.
Since it was both the first time they met and Lu Qingxuan’s first visit to Chengsheng Mountain, Han Li planned to personally show her around, help her get accustomed to the environment, and relax together with some sightseeing and leisure.
Elsewhere, on Yundao Peak,
The elders from Tian Ya Sect were discussing with Han Yongjin, Han Shigao, and others about setting a date for the ancestor’s wedding.
Regarding the dowry, Han Li had already set regulations. The gifts for women cultivators with Fifth Grade and Fourth Grade talent varied slightly, while those for beauties with Third Grade and higher talent were much more generous.
The Great Elder, Second Elder, and others burst into smiles upon hearing about their rewards, feeling it was well worth it to have married Lu Qingxuan off to Chengsheng Mountain.
For this, Tian Ya Sect lost Lu Qingxuan, a Third Grade talent, as well as Lin Xiao, who had even greater potential.
But compared to the rewards they received, all this was insignificant. Moreover, these benefits allowed their cultivation and strength to increase further, with some even hoping to break through to the True Martial Realm.
They also felt the Spiritual Energy on Chengsheng Mountain was extremely dense. Even on the secondary peaks where they stayed, the Spiritual Energy was several times denser than in the great Capital, let alone the main peak.
In the following days, the six elders encountered some secrets on Chengsheng Mountain. While not the core secrets of the mountain, these revelations still opened their eyes wide with wonder while also causing them to worry secretly; surely they wouldn’t get into any trouble?
This was naturally the result of Han Li’s indulgence. Since there were only six outsiders, Han Li wouldn’t go to great lengths to hide the scenery of Chengsheng Mountain; erasing part of their memories later would suffice.
On the fifth day,
The old ancestor of Han Mansion took yet another wife!
The wedding ceremony was held on Chengsheng Mountain, and various forces that had learned of the event came of their own accord, though it was less grand than the previous two times.
Han Li was unconcerned about this; after all, he was collecting gifts. Taking it slow with time, the frequency would increase, leading to a steady stream of income.
The common people within hundreds of miles around Chengsheng Mountain didn’t mind either. They didn’t have to give gifts and could feast on meat and fish for free—they’d be overjoyed if the Han Mansion’s old ancestor got married and took concubines every day.
After the wedding ceremony, Han Li went to the bridal chamber that had been arranged for Lu Qingxuan, stepping into the bridal room.
Night falls, and sleep may not be what enters your body,
The morning sun may not be what shines on your face,
A knife in the back may not be what pierces your body,
Heart-wrenching screams may not mean you’re aggrieved.
After several days of exchanging knowledge with Lu Qingxuan, during which Han Li and Lu Qingxuan visited various places and engaged in all kinds of civilized behavior,
Upon realizing he had successfully sown the seeds of life within Lu Qingxuan, Han Li agreed to her request for a truce.
After letting Lu Qingxuan loose, Han Li devoted his time to his loving wives and concubines, and occasionally instructed his descendants, imparting knowledge of the Dao.
