Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!

Chapter 201



Chapter 201

Cai Lin and Li Su married, and it took a little over a year of continuous efforts, guided by Li Su before she finally gave birth to their child. While her lineage might not be as potent as Mo Lin’s, it was still considerably better than that of typical sea clan women. Bearing offspring was a formidable challenge for them. Like Bai Ling, who, after giving birth to Ling’er, remained unable to conceive again. The stronger the bloodline, the more challenging it was to have descendants, and probability also played a significant role.

For instance, the mermaid Li Su married at the Nascent Soul stage and became pregnant within three months. However, having a second child at the Nascent Soul stage might not be as straightforward. This was one of the major challenges in bloodlines compared to spiritual roots. Attempting to compensate for quality with quantity would not yield positive results. In the case of lower-tier bloodlines, they would only continue to weaken. In other words, Li Su marrying sea clan women with average bloodlines would not significantly improve his lineage.

As they observed Li Su consistently taking sea clan beauties, each with at least a Nascent Soul cultivation level or higher, the Northern Territory cultivators were envious. Li Su’s reputation had reached its zenith in the entire Northern Territory. Even the Azure Sea, which had operated in the region for thousands of years, couldn’t match Li Su’s current prestige.

The majority of ordinary cultivators weren’t even aware of the Azure Sea. The casual closure of their doors or a brief visit by the Azure Sea could span the entire lifetime of many cultivators, given their longevity. Many ordinary cultivators only knew that the Azure Sea had a Nascent Soul-level powerhouse and held them in great reverence.

But Li Su was different. His ascent in the Northern Territory had been swift, and his actions were remarkable. His growth rate had been incredibly rapid. Some cultivators had witnessed Li Su’s progression from a young age, taking one wife after another. Li Su’s marriage to Bai Ling, in particular, had garnered the admiration and respect of numerous Northern Territory cultivators. Not only was Li Su a Nascent Soul-level powerhouse, but even his wives had reached the Nascent Soul stage. In Li Su’s household, there were several Core Formation-level cultivators and a group of Foundation Establishment-level concubines. Who could rival that?

Furthermore, Li Su had accomplished what had been deemed impossible in the Northern Territory for thousands of years by establishing trade with the North Sea clan. The attitudes of the North Sea clan’s influential figures at each wedding made it evident that Li Su had gained significant prestige among them. The sea clan’s powerful individuals held Li Su in high esteem. Even the typically stern Nascent Soul stage crab Mermaids couldn’t help but smile when they saw Li Su, displaying genuine attitudes, even if their smiles weren’t the most graceful.

With each wedding held in Linhai City, the city’s influence expanded. This immortal city had begun attracting more Northern Territory cultivators, indicating a trend of potentially surpassing Lin Xian City.

An eternal city did, indeed, generate substantial profits, especially with the ongoing trade between Linhai City and the sea clan. Linhai City was continually expanding. Initially, the sea clan was cautious not to make the city too large to avoid drawing the attention of sects in the Northern Territory.

On the other hand, Li Su didn’t need to be overly concerned.

“Look, almost all the sect leaders have come, except for those in isolation,” someone exclaimed.

“Yes, these days, whenever Senior Li takes another wife, so many people come!”

“With Senior Li’s reputation, he can undoubtedly be considered the ruler of the Northern Territory.”

In Linhai City, some of the cultivators who attended Li Su’s recent marriage ceremony were discussing this with a touch of reverence. One cultivator unintentionally referred to Li Su as the “King of the Northern Territory,” and this title started to circulate.

“King” was a worldly title. For cultivators, whether someone was called a king didn’t hold much significance. Many cultivators might have severed worldly attachments, but certain worldly notions might still influence those with slightly less power. Therefore, this title gained recognition in the Northern Territory. It could be seen as the collective acknowledgment of Li Su’s strength and status by all Northern Territory cultivators.

After over a year, Cai Lin gave birth to a child for Li Su. This time, it was also a daughter. Both Cai Lin and Bai Ling seemed to prefer having daughters, and powerful sea clan women appeared to have a unique ability. If they desired daughters, they could have daughters. When the child was just born, the predominant features in her bloodline still displayed human characteristics.

The differences between the Auger and humans were not very significant. For example, individuals like Mo Lin only had a pair of horns on their foreheads. These horns could undergo various transformations based on their strength and bloodline. After Cai Lin activated the Auger bloodline in her daughter, a pair of iridescent horns quickly grew on her head.

“Husband, the concentration of the iridescent bloodline in our daughter is slightly higher than mine,” Cai Lin observed. Cai Lin was quite pleased with the result. They named their daughter Li Qiqi due to her iridescent twin horns.

After conceiving this daughter, Li Su used special sea clan spirit herbs to refine numerous elixirs that would enhance the bloodline of their child even before her birth. Only bloodlines could be manipulated in this manner, and the degree of enhancement was not fixed but rather relative, more like a percentage. Those with initially strong bloodlines would experience a more significant enhancement, while those with weaker bloodlines would not improve by much.

For Li Su, who excels in alchemy and medicine refining, he had the ability to make the bloodlines of his offspring with sea clan women stronger. This was indeed a difference from spiritual roots. However, he could not change the quantity of offspring with sea clan women, so he focused on improving the quality. Li Qiqi’s birth also contributed to enhancing Li Su’s bloodline. With 1,000 experience points, Li Su could increase his physical cultivation by 420 points.

Shortly after that, the other sea clan women that Li Su had taken as wives also gave birth to his descendants one after another. These sea clan women were already powerful, and their bloodlines were decent. However, giving birth to descendants was much more challenging for them than for humans, so Li Su initially invested a lot of effort into each case.
