Chapter 9: The ancestor wants to accept the immortal again
“I’ll send someone over, and we’ll have a proper wedding ceremony,” Li Su said to Zhang Yuer.
Zhang Yuer blushed and softly replied with a “Yes.”
She had developed more feelings for Li Su, as he was not rushing to take her but rather willing to go through the proper procedures of a wedding ceremony.
Although the world of cultivators was different from the world of mortals, and many cultivators did not care much about ordinary etiquette, as a Qi refining cultivator, her lifelong events were still somewhat important to her. Now, seeing that Li Su valued her so much, Zhang Yuer couldn’t help but feel moved.
After spending some time talking with her in the tent, Li Su took a handkerchief and went into another tent. Inside was the first female cultivator who gave Li Su a handkerchief.
When Li Su entered, the female cultivator was so embarrassed that she couldn’t speak and fiddled with her clothes, feeling like she was at Li Su’s mercy.
Li Su sat down, and his voice became gentle. After a few words, the female cultivator’s nervousness eased, and she became more attracted to Li Su as she saw him willing to sit and chat with her patiently and with care.
Thus, Li Su spent some time chatting with her, and the female cultivator ‘Shen Xue’ became even more deeply attracted to him.
Initially, she had just fallen in love with Li Su at first sight and impulsively gave him her handkerchief. However, after getting to know him better, she found that although Li Su was a Foundation Building cultivator, he was not as cold as many others of that level. He was quite patient and caring towards her. This made Shen Xue liked Li Su even more.
Even if Li Su took her as his concubine now, she would be willing to do so with all her heart. Although, Li Su was still not in a hurry and instead made a promise to marry her properly.
With the previous concubines he took, even if they came from poor families, Li Su still held proper wedding ceremonies for them, making the event very grand.
Li Su believed that taking concubines was a way to strengthen the Li family and utilize the “more children, more blessings” system to enhance himself.
He would never mistreat his women. At least, he would ensure his concubines that they had no regrets in this lifetime and that they would not suffer any hardships by being with him.
After spending the night with Shen Xue, Li Su finally appeared in the tent of Lu Weijia.
“Ah… Senior Li…”
Lu Weijia sensed movement and realized it was Li Su. She exclaimed in surprise, as she was the youngest of the three female cultivators present.
“You’re so young. Even if your spiritual roots are not the best, joining a sect might give you a chance to build a foundation. If you follow me, you’ll only be in the Li family,” Li Su said as he approached Lu Weijia.
Although the tent was quite dark, it didn’t affect Li Su’s vision. Upon hearing his words, Lu Weijia felt wronged, and tears started to well up.
“Did your parents force you into this?” Li Su asked.
Although he hoped to marry more “fairy maidens” with spiritual roots, it was only under the condition that they were completely voluntary to marry him. Being forced by her parents was not voluntary.
Lu Weijia shook her head and whispered about her family’s situation. Her family was also a small cultivating family. Her parents were Qi refining cultivators, and she had a younger brother with spiritual roots.
Her parents wanted her brother to join a sect, but his qualifications were not good enough. However, if they had the help of another cultivating family, her brother might be able to join a sect in the Four Qi Kingdom.
Many of the immortal cultivators in these immortal cultivating families were eliminated by the immortal sect. Although they were eliminated, a small number of immortal cultivators still had some connections in the immortal gate.
Especially some immortal cultivators in the late stage of Qi refining, even if there was no hope of establishing a foundation, they still kept in touch with some disciples of the immortal sect. So, Lu Weijia’s parents planned to use her to exchange for her brother’s future.
This was not because of favoritism towards males, but more importantly, her brother’s qualifications were slightly better than hers.
In the world of cultivation, spiritual roots were too important. There seemed to be no way around it. Everyone’s lifespan had its limits, and with a slightly inadequate spiritual root, it might not be possible to establish a foundation in one’s lifetime. Even building a foundation was challenging enough, let alone ascending further.
Lu Weijia had no choice. She didn’t want to marry until today when she saw Li Su. She had a good impression of Li Su. She wanted to get rid of the fate of marrying into Wang’s family. So, she boldly gave away her handkerchief to Li Su.
Hearing this, Li Su understood.
“Senior, I don’t want to use you. If you don’t like me, I’ll leave. If you don’t mind, I am willing to follow you” After sharing her story, Lu Weijia quietly expressed her innermost thoughts.
She didn’t want to return to her own family anymore. Li Su gently held her hand. That night was both calm and turbulent.
The next day, the gathering of scattered cultivators continued, usually lasting three to four days. Li Su didn’t rush to leave, as many cultivators were still waiting for his guidance. After Li Su stayed here for another day, he left on the third day.
When he came, Li Su was alone, but when he returned, another person was beside him. That was Lu Weijia.
Lu Weijia didn’t want to return to her family, so she left with Li Su.
As for Zhang Yuer and Shen Xue, who also came from small cultivation families, Li Su planned to send someone for a marriage proposal and follow the proper procedures.
As for Ning Xiaoyu, who had followed Li Su from the beginning, her parents had long passed away, and she had no other relatives, so she also went home with Li Su.
“The Patriarch is back!”
Li Su returned to the estate a few days later with Lu Weijia. Upon returning, the Li family became busy.
The estate was large and mainly served as Li Su’s residence. Other descendants of the Li family lived below the estate in a city by the Luo River, where most of the population consisted of Li’s people and a large number of servants. Soon, the Li estate was decorated with lanterns and streamers.
“The Patriarch is going to marry another fairy!”
This news spread throughout the estate and the surrounding areas.
