Chapter 490: Chapter 218: Creating an Intense Competitive Family! The Whole World Honors the Great Ancestor of Love! Mortal King Body! The First Immortal Weapon is Born_5

The various forces also had their grievances, unable to voice their frustration. The rate at which the great Elder Consort Han Li took wives and concubines was simply too fast. If this trend continued, it would amount to taking a wife or concubine once a month, and if they kept giving gifts as they did the first time, it wouldn’t be long before their powers would suffer significant losses.

Now, the various forces were still willing to present gifts, partly wanting to further their relationship with the great Elder Consort Han Li, and partly because Han Li had not been completely reckless.

Last time, Han Li took in two wives and three concubines; this time, he was welcoming four wives. If Han Li acted recklessly, he could have split this into nine separate ceremonies to take in his new brides, leaving hardly any forces willing to pay their respects.

Chengsheng Mountain was once again immersed in a buzz of activity, a place where literati laughed and common folk did not tread, with all those entering having some measure of status or identity.

When the festivity faded, the noise dissipated, and the various forces left the place empty, Han Li officially entered the bridal room. He set out to earnestly pamper his brides of the night, especially Nangong Xue.

Beneath is the recitation segment of ancient poetry:

To ascend the chilly mountain, the stone path slants, and within the deep clouds, someone’s home awaits.

Pausing the cart to cherish the maple woods at dusk, where frost leaves appear redder than the blooms of February.

——Tang Dynasty·Du Mu

…..

For ten days straight, Master Han Li toiled in the fertile fields tirelessly, all for the benefit of future generations.

Only after Han Li, the great elder, had successful sown his seeds with Nangong Xue and the other three newly-wedded brides did he breathe a sigh of relief. Life, despite its beauty, was somewhat taxing on the back and kidneys.

Fortunately, the great elder Han Li was a capable being of the Tongxuan Realm, with a physical body nearly comparable to a Sage from the Sacred Abyss Realm, otherwise he truly wouldn’t have been able to withstand it.

After all, Elder Han Li discussed philosophical doctrines many times a day, never resting a single one of the three hundred and sixty-five days of the year, a true model of cultivation.

During this period, the news of the Ancient Empire forming a marriage alliance with Chengsheng Mountain’s Han Mansion spread far and wide across the vast Xuan Domain, causing no small sensation.

The Yinyang Sect, Kurong Sect, Fengbo Pavilion, and Ancient Empire among others were shocked by the determination of the Ancient Empire. The fact that they were willing to send even Second Grade talented beauties to Chengsheng Mountain meant they were rolling too hard.

Since when did offering women become something to compete over?

This is making things difficult for us.

The various forces were also shocked by the generous rewards given by Han Li. Such grand gestures showed how magnanimous the great Elder Consort was, making countless powers eager, wishing they could immediately send beautiful female cultivators from their forces to Chengsheng Mountain.

…….

Daqian Empire, Capital City.

Emperor Qian paced back and forth in the Imperial Palace, restless and agitated, occasionally muttering under his breath, “Damn it, this is too much competition!”

They, the Daqian Empire, were supposed to be Han Li’s rightful partner!

Yet now, Emperor Qian felt as if he had been cuckolded.

First, Emperor Wu’s City sent Han Li two wives and three concubines, then the Ancient Empire sent four wives, among whom was even a second-grade talent.

This left Emperor Qian deeply regretful for being too late to act.

Emperor Wu’s City was one thing; it was already in decline and bore no enmity or grievance with the Daqian Empire. But it was different with the Ancient Empire, still at its peak and powerful, furthermore, it had a deadly feud with the Daqian Empire, having even annexed three provinces of their territory.

Emperor Qian, however, couldn’t say anything against this, and could only watch as he was being cuckolded. He was acutely aware that it was the Daqian Empire relying on Han Li, not Han Li relying on the Daqian Empire; they had no say in the matter.

He wanted to send women to the great Elder Consort Han Li, but now it was too late.

The beautiful female cultivators sent by Emperor Wu’s City and the Ancient Empire not only possessed high talents and stunning beauty, but they were also virgins.

But what about the Daqian Empire?

The only one they could present proudly was the eldest princess, who was also a virgin, with a Third Grade talent, and cultivation at the level of a Great Grandmaster of the Myriad Phenomena Realm.

But the problem was, the eldest princess was unwilling to marry into Chengsheng Mountain and become a wife to Han Li.

Emperor Qian had no choice but to heave sighs and worry daily, trying to come up with other solutions.

After pacing around for a while, Emperor Qian’s figure vanished, determined to continue persuading the eldest princess. If she remained unwilling, then he had no choice but to collaborate with the Grand Preceptor and others to forcibly suppress her and deliver her to Chengsheng Mountain’s Han Mansion.

If things continued as such, the relationship between the Daqian Empire and Chengsheng Mountain would grow more and more distant. They needed their own people in Chengsheng Mountain and to have some influence in front of Han Li.

…..

Bai Yujing, Breeze Pavilion.

Sect Leader Lu Zhen stood silent and sullen atop the high pavilion, his face full of worry as he drank sullenly.

Elder Consort Han Li’s latest round of taking wives and concubines had extended an invitation to Bai Yujing, but they had chosen not to send anyone. Lu Zhen had known of this news early on.

To be honest, Lu Zhen felt envious of the great Elder Consort Han Li.

To think that Han Li could take as many beautiful wives and concubines without hindering his cultivation progress. Was reincarnation of the strong always this monstrous?

He had cultivated arduously to reach the Divine Yuan Realm, experiencing hardships along the way, nowhere as easygoing and untroubled as Han Li.

It was a provocation to Lu Zhen, mainly because the Fairy Ling Lingshuang from the Penglai Immortal Sect, whom he admired, had been missing for a long time, leaving no useful clues as to her whereabouts.

Lu Zhen used to swing by the Penglai Immortal Sect now and then, to scout for news, but now he dared not go anymore.

Every visit, the Observing Sea Daoist treated him like a punching bag, furiously venting at his master, disparaging Bai Yujing with comments like ‘Even the so-called number one Sacred Land of the Qianyuan Divine Province couldn’t discern a Mysterious Force, allowing them to make fools of them and remain free from justice…’

Lu Zhen could only endure in silence, aware that the Observing Sea Daoist was more enraged and frustrated than he was, angry about not finding Ling Lingshuang and hence vented at him.

The Observing Sea Daoist wished for Bai Yujing to put in more effort, to identify the Mysterious Forces sooner, and rescue Ling Lingshuang.
