Chapter 336

Marrying off the Saintess was a way to show their determination, potentially dissuading some other sacred places from further pursuit. This plan accounts for various scenarios.

After approximately a minute, Li Su finally reached a decision. “I accept this gesture,” he declared. The Saintess Zixue’s face grew even redder, though she felt a sense of relief and a hint of joy.

Lord Feng Tian, with a smile, said, “Then, you can choose the wedding date.” The wedding date was promptly set, three months following Peak Master Dieyun’s ceremony.

Feng Tian, rather than leaving Mangkang Mountain, took up residence in Su City within Li Su’s estate. On the day of Li Su and Peak Master Dieyun’s wedding, she made a brief appearance, offering her congratulations as a gift. She had considered meeting the Sect Master of the Returning Origin Sect but found that the Sect Master had no intention of seeing her.

The Sect Master’s visit was discreet, known only to Li Su. On the wedding day, she made a distant appearance, promptly departing. She aimed to avoid revealing that she was undergoing a tribulation, especially the challenging first decline of the Heavenly Being, during which she was notably vulnerable.

If she successfully weathered the first decline, even facing a subsequent one, she could maintain the strength of the first decline for an extended period. “Husband,” called Peak Master Dieyun on their romantic wedding night, marking the first time she addressed Li Su with that title.

Li Su, entranced by the resplendent Peak Master Dieyun, gave his utmost effort on this special night. The night became exceptionally romantic. After achieving the Unity Stage, Peak Master Dieyun continued to solidify her position within Li Su’s residence. The Sect Master of the Returning Origin Sect prepared to return to the sect to continue her tribulation.

Her visit brought valuable items for Peak Master Dieyun and Li Su, all beneficial for achieving the Unity Stage. “Sect Master, these pills are for you. They should be of some help,” Li Su offered her a bottle of pills as she departed.

Li Su’s understanding of the Five Declines of the Heavenly Being was limited. He couldn’t be certain the pills would definitively help her, but they were likely to have some effect. To create pills genuinely helpful for the Five Declines, Li Su might have to wait until he personally experienced them.

However, during the tribulation, elixirs were always just supplementary. The key was one’s own strength. The leader of the Returning Origin Sect departed. Soon, another piece of news spread throughout the Northern Region—Li Su was actually going to marry the Saintess from the sacred place, the Xuantian Academy.

“Senior Li is even marrying a Saintess from a sacred place?”

“That’s incredible!”

“Word on the street is that Senior Li is definitely a reincarnated immortal. Now, it seems to be true for sure!”

“A reincarnated immortal? My goodness, no wonder Senior Li has grown so rapidly!”

In fact, after the news of Li Su achieving the Unity Stage spread, a large number of independent cultivators from other realms decided to settle in the Northern Region. Now, with the news of a reincarnated immortal spreading, the number of cultivators drawn to the Northern Region, especially the area around Mangkang Mountain, has increased even more.

Amidst this excitement, Li Su arrived at the Flying Immortal Sect.

“Li Su~”

The sect master auntie greeted Li Su with great warmth. Her address to Li Su remained unchanged, and in Li Su’s eyes, that was the best. It indicated that she considered him a true family member. Li Su had traversed into this world alone, having grown up in an orphanage before the journey. Having such a considerate elder in this world was indeed a good thing.

“After Xiao Xue’s parents found out she was here, they messaged her, wanting her to go to the Purple Gold Holy Land, but she refused,” the sect master auntie informed Li Su.

“That woman hasn’t made any moves recently. I suspect she’s waiting for the ancestral master to come out of seclusion. We disabled her son but didn’t kill him. Alas, our current strength is still not enough to contend with the ancestral master,” the sect master’s auntie added.

“Everyone is saying that Senior Li is definitely a reincarnated immortal. Now, it seems to be true for sure!”

“A reincarnated immortal? My goodness, no wonder Senior Li has grown so rapidly!” The cultivators in the Northern Region were once again astonished. Those who had come from other realms to the Northern Region were equally amazed.

After receiving this information, Li Su chose not to disturb the sect master.

“That woman hasn’t made any moves recently. I suspect she’s waiting for the ancestral master to come out of seclusion. We disabled her son but didn’t kill him. Alas, our current strength is still not enough to contend with the ancestral master,” the sect master’s auntie explained.

The Dongfang Ancestor seemed to be in seclusion, and it was unknown how long it would last. No wonder that woman quieted down even after her son was captured. However, even if she wanted to cause trouble, what could she do now? In the face of absolute strength, the only person she could rely on was the Dongfang Ancestor.

Though they didn’t kill him, disabling him still provided a way out for the Eastern Ancestor. Even though, in Li Su’s opinion, the Eastern Ancestor might not necessarily step down from this figurative “step,” they had already made their decision, so Li Su didn’t comment further.

“The Ancestor once had a great battle with a Demon Sovereign of the Demon Saint Sect during the first decline of the Heavenly Being. That was many years ago. I imagine the Ancestor is even stronger now,” the sect master auntie explained. Li Su understood. No wonder the Dongfang Family was considered half a holy place, even stronger than a first-grade immortal sect. The Dongfang Ancestor was at least a powerful expert in the first decline of the Heavenly Being.

It remained uncertain whether the Dongfang Ancestor possessed the strength of the second decline of the Heavenly Being. The Dongfang Ancestor seemed to be in seclusion, and it was unknown how long it would last. No wonder that woman quieted down even after her son was captured. However, even if she wanted to cause trouble, what could she do now? In the face of absolute strength, the only person she could rely on was the Dongfang Ancestor.

So, the other party was in seclusion. That was normal. It was the usual state in the cultivation world. The majority spent most of their time in seclusion, with only a few active outside. Given Li Su’s current rate of growth, it was possible that one day, after he became immortal and gained fame, some powerful figures might not even be aware of him due to their prolonged seclusion.

Now, with Li Su marrying a saintess from a sacred place, many cultivators have come to join in the excitement, making the wedding even more lively.
