Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!

“She did it!”

Upon witnessing the sect leader’s success, the gazes of the three Nascent Soul cultivators turned towards her. Even though they were Nascent Soul cultivators, a tinge of jealousy was evident in their eyes.

This marked the achievement of the Immortal Foundation Establishment stage!

Reaching the Immortal Foundation Establishment stage made the path of cultivation smoother and greatly increased the chances of attaining immortality, the ultimate goal for most cultivators. Yet, in reality, immortality remained a distant aspiration for the majority of them, even for those with theoretically limitless lifespans in the Nascent Soul stage.

These three Nascent Soul cultivators, despite their power and respectable talents, were not Immortal Spirit Roots themselves. Thus, attaining the Immortal Foundation Establishment stage was equally unattainable for them, making envy inevitable.

“Xiao Xue!”

The sect leader’s aunt watched as Li Su had already dealt with the Nascent Soul peak cultivator and flew over, feeling joy for the sect leader.

The sect leader withdrew her power and gazed at the Nascent Soul peak cultivator, who was now pitiful.

“Xiao Xue, that woman mobilized a Nascent Soul peak cultivator to search for you worldwide. It’s a good thing we had Li Su. Otherwise, this situation could have been dangerous,” the sect leader’s aunt exclaimed with relief, her gaze towards Li Su reflecting deep satisfaction. She had never seen a genius as extraordinary as Li Su.

To reach the Nascent Soul stage only a few decades ago and now thoroughly defeat a Nascent Soul peak cultivator, capturing him alive, was an extraordinary feat. The gap between Nascent Soul and Nascent Soul’s peak was substantial and often insurmountable for many cultivators.

Moreover, capturing a Nascent Soul peak cultivator was much more challenging than defeating one, but Li Su had achieved it!

A Li Su of this caliber earned the admiration of the sect leader and her aunt. “Thank you, Li Su,” the sect leader said with a gaze of admiration.

“No need to be so formal, Sect Leader. There are quite a few people nearby. I’ll handle it first,” Li Su said, scanning his surroundings.

The sect leader and her aunt followed his gaze but couldn’t spot any figures. Even with the sect leader achieving the Immortal Foundation Establishment stage, they couldn’t sense the three Nascent Soul cultivators, and the other Nascent Soul cultivators kept their distance.

The arriving Nascent Soul cultivators were equally unaware of the three Nascent Soul cultivators. “If you all have no business here, please depart. Lingering here might lead to misunderstandings,” Li Su spoke up.

“Hahaha, truly a young hero, Li Su. I come from the Western Territory and hold the position of the second-grade sect leader in the Xuantian Academy. Meeting you today is a true blessing in my life,” a Nascent Soul cultivator from the West said with a hearty laugh.

At this moment, hearty laughter filled the air, and a person revealed himself.

He was dressed in white and appeared around forty years old, giving the impression of a refined scholar. He fanned himself and quickly approached Li Su. This individual is inclined to make friends with Li Su.

He had not heard of Li Su’s name before, and in his mind, Li Su was still a sacred ground’s Nascent Soul genius. The sect leader, on the other hand, was an even younger genius. Despite Li Su being at the Nascent Soul stage while he had reached the Nascent Soul peak, he didn’t put on airs and maintained a humble demeanor.

Of course, he didn’t go out of his way to please others. Making friends and trying to curry favor were two different things. Even though the sect leader was a genius from a sacred ground, the second-grade sect leader of an immortal sect had reached the Nascent Soul peak, and there was no need to seek favor.

Before geniuses matured, they were just that—geniuses. The gap between Nascent Soul and Nascent Soul peak was significant, and even with an Immortal Spirit Root, it would take a considerable amount of time to bridge that gap.

Peak Master Dieyun and the Head of the Tianluo Sect also appeared after the sect leader of the Xuantian Academy. “We were drawn here by the commotion of your Immortal Foundation Establishment stage breakthrough and have no ill intentions. Both of you are rare geniuses who appear once in a thousand years. If you need any assistance, my Returning Origin Sect is willing to offer full support,” Peak Master Dieyun said. Although she was incredibly curious about Li Su, on the surface, she maintained a calm and composed demeanor.

Not only Peak Master Dieyun but also the Head of the Tianluo Sect behaved similarly. The reason was quite simple. They were unsure about Li Su and the sect leader’s specific identities. Therefore, they initiated friendly gestures and planned to proceed to the next steps after confirming the identities. Additionally, they were reluctant to introduce unnecessary competition to the sect leader of the Xuantian Academy. The Head of the Tianluo Sect was a crafty individual, to say the least.

“Haha, today is a joyous occasion. Li Su, my Tianluo Sect is located in the Eastern Territory, and we have many beautiful female cultivators with fourth-grade spiritual roots or higher in the sect. If you have the time, you are always welcome to visit the Tianluo Sect,” he said. However, the Head of the Tianluo Sect, while not entirely sure of Li Su’s identity, still included some personal intentions in his words.

“It seems you have matters to attend to today, young friend. I won’t bother you any longer. After you’re done with your business, I will come to visit. This is our Xuantian Academy’s Xuantian Token. If you need any assistance, you can activate it,” and the sect leader of the Xuantian Academy extended a small token.

However, Li Su didn’t accept it. He naturally noticed that all three of them were Nascent Soul cultivators. It was quite normal for the three of them to consider forming a bond or recruiting Li Su after witnessing his and the sect leader’s extraordinary talents. However, Li Su couldn’t join any immortal sect.
