Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch's Marriage - Chapter 221

Chapter 221: Chapter 162: The Elder Ancestor Has Taken Another Concubine Again! The Dragon Abyss Sword! Within Da Qian, True Martial Prohibition!_2
 

In this world, perhaps the Han Family patriarch was the most unflappable, possessing a heart clear as ice and undisturbed even as the sky falls.

The Daqian Empire was in such chaos, with external forces eager to move and numerous factions within vying for resources and territory. Only the Han Family patriarch had the best mentality, not competing for anything.

They remember that the Han Family patriarch had only recently taken a wife and now he had already taken concubines, two at once no less.

“No wonder the Han Family patriarch possesses such cultivation, his mental state is incomparable to us cultivators.”

“The Han Family patriarch truly is a role model for our generation, deserving to be dubbed ‘the Ancestor of Taking Concubines.'”

“It seems as though the Han Family patriarch is uncompetitive, but in reality, he is also vying. We compete over tangible cultivation resources, while the Han Family patriarch competes for intangible resources.”

“Indeed, the path of cultivation requires wealth, companions, methods, and territory, with companions coming second. The Han Family patriarch keeps marrying and taking concubines, leaving us struggling even to find a dao companion.”

Cultivators from all over discussed the matter of the Han Family patriarch taking concubines as casual gossip during their leisure time.

This time, the situation in Yonchang Manor had stabilized somewhat, and representatives from various factions came to participate in the patriarch’s concubine-acceptance ceremony. Some cultivators also wanted to see just how beautiful the female cultivators being taken as concubines by the Han Family patriarch were.

Yonchang Manor’s various factions knew well that the patriarch had high standards. He would not even consider beautiful female cultivators of the eighth rank, yet this time he took two concubines at once.

To their disappointment, they only saw two brides covered with red veils, unable to discern anything specific. No one dared to probe with their spiritual sense, as that could be lethal.

There had been an ignorant individual who did just that and was slapped to death on the spot by the Han Family patriarch.

During the wedding feast, the powers of Yonchang Manor clinked cups and exchanged information about the current situation, using the opportunity to actively network and see if they could support each other and advance or retreat together.

Chief Zhou also approached Han Li, reporting that Han Yongchun had entered the Mangyang Mountain ruins and claiming that Zhou Huaijun, together with his kinsman, had entered the central palace complex. Zhou Huaijun would protect Han’s son, vowing not to let him come to harm before his own death and so on…

Han Li was already aware of this. News of new discoveries in the Mangyang Mountain ruins had spread long ago, and he was not overly concerned about Han Yongchun’s safety. He knew that Chief Zhou’s words were mere pleasantries.

Zhou Huaijun, only at the eighth layer of the Pihai Realm, couldn’t even protect himself, let alone Han Yongchun.

After the wedding feast concluded, the various powers dispersed, and the Han Family patriarch made his way to the lavishly decorated bridal chamber. Gazing upon the beauties who were national treasures, he slowly approached, lifted their red veils, and removed their red dresses.

When the patriarch was all settled and made his way to the Capital City, he was still savoring the memory of those two days and nights of pleasure. That was the taste of real demonesses.

The two demonesses indeed had not deceived him; their primordial yin remained intact.

“How brazen, demonesses! I saw through you at a glance, not even human. Reveal your true forms this instant!”

“Hmph! Petty tricks. You dare flaunt your meager skills in front of the patriarch? Witness my great mighty heavenly dragon!”

In his excitement, the patriarch blurted out several lines he had prepared for the Demon Queen.

“Truly worthy of being demonesses from the God Refining Realm, such magnificent vitality, still brimming with life and vigor.”

Once in the Capital City, reminiscing on the taste of the two demonesses, the patriarch couldn’t help muttering to himself.

If demonesses of the God Refining Realm were already so formidable, how fierce must that Demon Queen of the True Martial Realm be?

The patriarch felt that perhaps it would take hundreds of billions of elite soldiers to fill the gap, grinding away the Demon Queen’s fighting spirit.

As thoughts flitted through his mind, Han Li’s figure appeared in the ninth-floor private room of Drunken Immortal Pavilion; he still had not chosen to go to the Daqian Palace.

Although both sides had the intention to form an alliance, taking what they needed from it, Han Li did not want to risk it. After all, when swearing by the Oath Stone, he had not mentioned refraining from making moves against the other party.

Who knew if Chu Zhenxiong, that old fox, would do such a thing?

Under normal circumstances, Chu Zhenxiong would not, and he would not dare, but what if Chu Zhenxiong lost his mind? Han Li was not willing to risk his own safety.

Later on, after sipping some fine wine, Han Li sent a sound transmission to Chu Zhenxiong to notify him that it was time for their transaction.

Before long, Chu Dingqian’s figure appeared on the ninth floor of Drunken Immortal Pavilion.

Seeing Chu Zhenxiong arrive, Han Li asked with a smile, “How has Chu Daoist brother been lately?”

“Thanks to Daoist Brother Li’s blessings, all is well,” Chu Dingqian laughed heartily.

Since reaching an agreement with Li Feiyu and taking an oath by the Oath Stone, Chu Dingqian felt at ease.

These days as he oversaw the Daqian Empire, his mood had greatly improved. He had revealed some information in advance to Emperor Qian and the key officials of Daqian, settling their hearts.

Although Emperor Qian and the others did not know exactly how Zhenxiong could achieve this, if a True Martial Realm Emperor Wu truly came to Daqian in a few days, all would be well.

Hence, they became more diligent in their work, swiftly quelling the internal strife and stabilizing the various powers within Daqian.

The external powers also received this news through various channels, shocking the Yinyang Sect, Kurong Sect, Fengbo Pavilion, and the Da Jing Dynasty. How could an empire in such a state still find generous aid? Weren’t they afraid of offending the four major forces?

Wouldn’t partitioning the Daqian Empire and adding glory to the four powers be good?

The decision-makers within the four major forces had different thoughts, but they were still observing. They suspected the news might be false, intended to stabilize the hearts of the people of Daqian.

The four major forces silently waited to see if a new True Martial Realm figure would indeed emerge in a few days to take charge of the Daqian Empire.

“Seeing Chu Daoist brother fairing well, I can rest assured,” Han Li said with a beaming smile, all the while pondering another matter.
