WTF, The Centuries-Old Ancestor In Our Family Take Concubine Again!

Chapter 73

Chapter 73

For over a century, Li Su had guarded the secret of how he had assisted the sect leader during their initial encounter.

Over more than a century, Li Su had nurtured his longing for the sect leader, and now, time had swiftly passed, leaving its mark only subtly on him. He remained youthful and handsome, but his strength had grown exponentially, a transformation that had gone unnoticed by most.

In a bit more time, it occurred to him that he might even catch up to her.

“Elder Huang, you may depart for now. I have matters to discuss with my disciples,” the sect leader announced.

Several elders responded affirmatively and withdrew, but two individuals stayed behind, Su Yun and Qin Xiaoyue.

Qin Xiaoyue had returned as soon as she received word of the sect leader’s breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage. Her gaze, however, was locked on Qin Xiaoyue’s belly for a straightforward reason.

In just over three years since giving birth to four children for Li Su, Qin Xiaoyue had, astonishingly, become pregnant again. This marked her fifth pregnancy, which left her feeling somewhat embarrassed under the sect leader’s scrutiny.

As for Su Yun, she had been completely absorbed in her quest to advance to the Golden Core stage, dedicating herself entirely to her cultivation. Even when Li Su occasionally showed affection, she remained diligent, needing reminders to balance her focus.

The sect leader shifted her gaze away from the topic and inquired about the recent developments in their lives. She was genuinely pleased to learn that Su Yun had already reached the ninth layer of the Foundation Establishment stage, a remarkable feat.

“You two may leave now. I need to discuss something with Li Su,” the sect leader instructed.

The two women complied and exited the grand hall, leaving only Li Su and the sect leader inside as the doors slowly closed.

“The Saintess of the Hidden Moon will likely arrive soon. Do you have any plans?” the sect leader inquired.

Li Su responded, “Sect Leader, I propose sealing off the Flying Immortal Sect. Your advancement to the Nascent Soul stage should not be divulged to the disciples. Furthermore, I’ve already placed a unique mark on a demonic cultivator, which will lead them to the Flying Immortal Sect.”

Li Su had pushed a cooperative Foundation Establishment stage demonic cultivator to the limits, extracting information about the Saintess of the Hidden Moon from him. He then had the cultivator leave markings pointing towards the Flying Immortal Sect and fabricated false intelligence about the sect.

This scenario was designed to make the Flying Immortal Sect detect unusual activity, set an ambush, and capture the Golden Core demonic cultivator. The Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator, following from a distance, would subsequently lead them to the Flying Immortal Sect.

Li Su intended to have the sect take proactive measures rather than waiting for the Saintess of the Hidden Moon to attack, potentially causing destruction.

“Your plan sounds reasonable. Let us proceed with it,” the sect leader agreed after hearing Li Su’s proposal. It was a straightforward but effective plan.

Regarding the Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator who had cooperated with them, after extracting all the necessary information and using him to stage the scenario, Li Su kept his promise and stripped the cultivator of his cultivation, sparing his life. However, he was handed over to two Flying Immortal Sect disciples and left in the Blackwood Forest. This particular demonic cultivator, due to his involvement in the attack on the city and his significance, was not someone they could afford to release.

With the plan in place, the sect leader was ready to take action based on Li Su’s guidance to confront the impending threat posed by the Saintess of the Hidden Moon.

The demonic cultivator was indeed not a fool. However, given that the Saintess’s command emblem was in the Flying Immortal Sect’s possession, and considering that the demonic cultivators had attacked the city to capture sect disciples, they were almost certain to follow the path Li Su had outlined.

“You… never mind. The most crucial matter is dealing with the Heavenly Demon Sect. I will focus on consolidating my cultivation. The preparations are in your capable hands,” the sect leader began to say something but halted. She understood that priorities had to be set, with the imminent threat from the Heavenly Demon Sect taking precedence.

Li Su called out to her as she was about to leave, prompting the sect leader to turn and face him. Li Su presented her with a set of Flying Immortal Swords.

“Sect Leader, these are high-grade spiritual weapons that I have crafted. I offer them to you as a gift,” Li Su said.

High-grade spiritual weapons! These four words immediately captured the sect leader’s attention. She had been using a middle-grade spiritual weapon acquired from sources outside the sect, which had become inadequate since her advancement to the Nascent Soul stage.

Middle-grade spiritual weapons sufficed for the later stages of the Golden Elixir realm. Often, magical treasures could correspond to multiple realms and meet the needs of two levels. However, transitioning to the second realm might leave them somewhat lacking.

For example, a low-grade to middle-grade magical treasure sufficed during the Qi Refining stage. During the Foundation Establishment stage, high-grade to top-grade magical treasures were suitable. Spiritual treasures ranged from low-grade to middle-grade for Nascent Soul cultivators and high-grade to top-grade for those in the Nascent Soul stage.

However, these were not strict correspondences but rather indicators of the degree of suitability. Skilled artisans who could find the right materials could even use Taoist and Immortal treasures during the Nascent Soul stage. Though unable to fully unleash their power at that stage, they could dominate opponents at the same level and even those several stages above.

Upon reaching the Nascent Soul stage, the sect leader had been concerned about the insufficiency of her middle-grade spiritual weapon. Li Su’s gift of a set of top-grade spiritual weapons, and even a few supreme-grade spiritual weapons, came as an extraordinary surprise.

Top-grade spiritual weapons were already rare in the three major immortal sect regions, while supreme-grade spiritual weapons were exceptionally scarce. Gathering the materials for such weapons was an arduous task, and over the years, the sect leader had only managed to collect a small portion.

Where Li Su acquired such abundant materials puzzled her. It was worth noting that although the Great Yan Formation contained numerous top-grade spiritual weapons, many had been destroyed, and some even descended to the level of middle-grade spiritual weapons. The formation master had gathered these materials over many years with the help of Nascent Soul cultivators.

However, the Great Yan Formation required even more resources, especially for the Great Yan Sword, which consumed a considerable amount. This time, Li Su had nearly exhausted the higher-quality crafting materials from that secret place.

Discovering such secret places was no easy feat. With a wave of the sect leader’s hand, she summoned the set of Flying Immortal Swords to her. Upon closer examination, she confirmed they were top-grade spiritual weapons, with a few surpassing this rank and qualifying as supreme-grade spiritual weapons.

Li Su had crafted this set of top-grade spiritual weapons, demonstrating expertise in formations and alchemy and mastery in weapon crafting. This revelation left the sect leader in profound admiration. It appeared that there was little Li Su couldn’t accomplish.
