Chapter 116
However, for some reason, she felt comfortable talking to Li Su. Behind them, the Moon’s Saintess sat quietly, savoring the breeze without jealousy or resentment. With numerous women in Li Su’s household, if she were prone to jealousy, she wouldn’t need to cultivate it. Jealousy alone would elevate her to a deity.
“Is he considering taking concubines again?” The Moon’s Saintess contemplated this matter. Initially, during Li Su’s time in the Hopeful Immortality Corner, he had taken several concubines and nearly exhausted all the beautiful female cultivators with exceptional appearances. During the years when she was continuously giving birth to children, Li Su had refrained from taking many concubines.
However, the Moon’s Saintess believed it wasn’t because Li Su’s affection had waned for her but rather because no female cultivators were available to take as concubines. In the vast Northern Territory, there were even more high-quality female cultivators with higher cultivation levels and exceptional aptitude. Moreover, Li Su’s charisma remained irresistible, even to her. If Li Su continued to take concubines, the question was, how many would he take?
The journey from Linxian City to the Azure Mist Sect was brief, and the cloud boat was remarkably swift. They reached the Azure Mist Sect in just two days. The Azure Mist Sect’s location was splendid, with three converging mountain ranges that gave the impression of three dragons meeting at the head. Perched atop a towering mountain at the confluence of these ranges, the Azure Mist Sect spanned tens of thousands of feet. The rich spiritual energy and numerous peaks created an idyllic paradise.
The cloud boat proceeded into the Azure Mist Sect, and its pace decelerated. Bi Luo seemed intent on showcasing the Azure Mist Sect’s might. In comparison, the Flying Immortal Sect appeared notably inferior. The Azure Mist Sect resembled the grandest shopping mall in the capital city during Li Su’s past life, while the Flying Immortal Sect resembled a small rural shop. However, despite the magnificent Azure Mist Sect, Li Su remained resolute. With the support of the system and decent spiritual roots, he had no intentions of changing sects or affiliations. The sect leader hadn’t even given birth to his child yet.
“Bi Luo, I greatly appreciate your assistance and these spirit stones…”
“Li Senior, there’s no need for formalities. You need not offer me the spirit stones.”
“Bi Luo, please accept them.”
Several hours later, Li Su attempted to offer spirit stones to Bi Luo for quite some time, but she declined them persistently. Unable to insist further, Li Su ultimately accepted her kind gesture.
The Azure Mist Sect lived up to its reputation as a third-grade immortal sect, boasting an immense medicinal garden that was nothing short of extraordinary. It was not just a garden but a vast mountainous expanse spanning hundreds of square miles. Specialized gathering arrays accumulated spiritual energy, and numerous medicine attendants diligently cared for the plants.
During their return journey, Bi Luo remained enthusiastic, conversing with Li Su. The Moon’s Saintess was also in high spirits since she had obtained almost all the required medicinal herbs, except for one. They would have to visit the Danxin Sect to acquire that particular herb.
“Li Taoist friend, please…”
A few days later, Li Su returned to the Danxin Sect, accompanied by the Moon’s Saintess. Shortly after entering the medicinal garden, the Moon’s Saintess discovered her sought herb.
“Li Taoist friend, there’s no need for formalities. We are all part of the Northern Territory and should support each other,” the Danxin Sect’s sect leader insisted.
With all the necessary medicinal herbs collected, the Moon’s Saintess’s mood improved even further, and her gaze towards Li Su was filled with gratitude. Without Li Su, gathering these herbs would have been an arduous task. She wouldn’t have dared to reveal even a hint of her aura in front of other Nascent Soul cultivators, who wouldn’t have paid her any attention, let alone met her. Moreover, the Danxin Sect was formidable, with half of their disciples dedicated to alchemy.
Upon returning to Linxian City, the Ascension Conference drew close. The sect leader had already facilitated the Flying Immortal Sect’s smooth entry into the Immortal Alliance, and the Flying Immortal Sect was now recognized as a fifth-grade immortal sect. Li Su then sought out the sect leader of the Water Moon Sect and said, “Li Taoist friend, may I have a moment of your time?”
The Water Moon Sect’s sect leader, Liu Xinshui, replied, “I’m Liu Xinshui, and my sister is Liu Xinyue. We look remarkably similar and are indeed identical twins. Both of us are in the Nascent Soul stage and are renowned as the most prominent female cultivators in the Northern Territory. Our strength is formidable. I am on the verge of reaching the late Nascent Soul stage, while my sister’s cultivation is slightly lower.”
Li Su then explained his intention, “Sect Leader Liu Xinshui, I have several daughters with fourth-grade or higher spiritual roots and one with third-grade spiritual roots. If possible, I would like to send them to the Water Moon Sect.”
His primary objective was decided upon after discussions with the sect leader. After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, the sect leader intended to focus on her cultivation and had no intention of accepting new disciples. Despite the Flying Immortal Sect’s promotion to a fifth-grade sect, it still lagged far behind sects like the Water Moon Sect regarding heritage and resources. Li Su believed his daughters with fourth-grade or higher spiritual roots would find better opportunities in the all-female Water Moon Sect, making it the preferable choice. Therefore, he had come to seek Liu Xinshui’s agreement.
