Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!

Li Su began to suspect that the Sect Leader might possess extraordinarily high spiritual roots. Her rapid growth and accurate recognition of his first-grade Golden Core were telling signs. However, it raised questions about her cultivating choice in the relatively secluded Hope Immortal Peak. If her spiritual roots were exceptional, she could have joined more prominent immortal sects or even holy places, which would have been far more advantageous than running a sect like the Flying Immortal Sect in this remote location.

Li Su couldn’t help but wonder if there was something the Sect Leader was not disclosing, especially when she mentioned the damage to her foundation. However, he decided not to press further on the matter.

“Sometimes, having lower expertise but more knowledge could be a mixed blessing. Even if he understood more, it might not change the situation. For instance, what could Li Su do if the Sect Leader was being pursued by enemies and needed to hide here? Increasing his expertise remained the main goal. Strengthening his power was the key to facing challenges and uncertainties in the future.

“Master, if you need any healing pills, please feel free to ask. I can make them for you,” Li Su offered.

After some thought, the Sect Leader replied, “Indeed, I require a specific healing pill. I have a recipe here, and the necessary herbs should be in the spirit medicine garden. Please check if you can make it.”

Li Su glanced at the recipe describing a pill called the “Water Cloud Pill.” The formula didn’t detail its effects, but Li Su could guess from the required herbs that it was a pill for body nourishment and of high quality.

“I’ll handle it, Master,” Li Su assured her.

While the disciples of the Flying Immortal Sect cleaned up the battlefield, Li Su returned to the sect and began crafting the pills. The Holy Maiden of the Hidden Moon watched with interest. Li Su’s alchemy skills seemed impressive from the skilled alchemist’s perspective. This raised the Holy Maiden’s hopes. She wondered if he might help her with the Heaven Demon Seal when Li Su reached the Nascent Soul stage.

Half a month later, the Water Cloud Pills were successfully made. The Sect Leader had also returned by then. She was surprised to find that Li Su not only made the Water Cloud Pills but also used the core of a fourth-rank demonic beast, along with various herbs, to produce a significant number of pills.

Turning a demonic beast’s core into pills required advanced alchemical skill. While directly absorbing the core would take time due to the demonic essence, the pill’s effects would be substantial. The Sect Leader hadn’t expected this from Li Su, showing his impressive alchemical skill.

To craft these pills, Li Su used an experience reward he had received earlier, pushing his alchemical experience past 1,000 years. Li Su used numerous herbs, which, while insufficient for Nascent Soul stage pills, worked as supplements. The core of the demonic beast was the primary ingredient, and the herbs balanced the mixture, making them suitable for the task.

“Master, please take these,” Li Su insisted, giving a bottle of pills to the Sect Leader. Their fingers accidentally brushed as she accepted them. Li Su didn’t want to trouble her further, as she needed to repair her damaged foundation. Repairing it at the Nascent Soul stage likely had restrictions. Li Su pondered the damage to her foundation, which involved the “Li family”.

Returning home, Li Su had a heartfelt conversation with the Holy Maiden of the Hidden Moon. In a few months, the Holy Maiden became pregnant again, marking their fourth child, a cause for joy.

“Your bells are ready. I was short on materials and could only upgrade twenty to top-grade spiritual weapons. The Heavenly Demon Needles will take longer,” Li Su informed her.

Li Su had his own as the Holy Maiden of the Hidden Moon shared her good news. He successfully upgraded twenty of her bells to top-grade spiritual weapons, an improvement given the limited materials. Li Su continued working on the Heavenly Demon Needles.

The Holy Maiden of the Hidden Moon was genuinely pleased with her enhanced abilities. Who wouldn’t want to get stronger? A year later, she gave birth to their fourth child, with a remarkable sixth-grade spiritual root.

Li Su happily distributed experience rewards, focusing on his crafting skills this time. He aimed to accumulate 1,000 years of experience in each skill. He knew that once the number of descendants with spiritual roots exceeded 200, there would be a 2,000-year experience reward. Li Su considered where to allocate that significant experience, intending to enhance his skills over time gradually.

“Holy Maiden, the Heavenly Demon Needles are ready!” Two months after their fourth child was born, Li Su returned with the upgraded set of needles, all elevated to top-grade spiritual weapons. The Holy Maiden of the Hidden Moon was pleased. However, her mood improved even more when Li Su led her to their room, clearly in the mood for intimacy.

“Again?” Two months later, the Holy Maiden of the Hidden Moon was dismayed to discover she was pregnant again. She couldn’t believe it. Li Su had truly meant what he said about having her bear him five children before reaching the Nascent Soul stage, and this was already the fifth!

“Holy Maiden, this is what I call ‘life flourishing,’ hahaha!” Li Su was quite pleased. Due to conditions in the three major immortal sect regions over the past year, he had reduced his efforts to find concubines. However, the number of descendants grew, especially those with spiritual roots. More than a hundred of Li Su’s descendants were within the Flying Immortal Sect. They received support from all the disciples without objections or issues.

“Mommy, mommy!” A curious 5-year-old girl looked at the Hidden Moon Holy Maiden’s belly. This was Li Su and the Holy Maiden of the Hidden Moon’s first child, a daughter named Mengmeng with a third-grade spiritual root. Her eyes were filled with curiosity, seemingly wondering why her mother’s belly was getting big again.

“Daddy!” Li Su arrived, and Mengmeng joyfully jumped into his arms. Li Su lifted her high and spun her around, making Mengmeng laugh. Mengmeng favored her father, Li Su, more than her mother, the Hidden Moon Holy Maiden.

Watching the happiness between father and daughter, the Hidden Moon Holy Maiden couldn’t help but smile. Although this was their fifth child, she had come to accept it. Coincidentally, on the same day their fifth child was born, Li Su had accumulated enough energy for his Nascent Soul breakthrough. He had reached the 1,000-point milestone and was approaching two significant rewards.

“Let’s name him Li Ying,” Li Su decided, giving a name to their fifth child, Li Ying, on the day of his Nascent Soul cultivation. After Li Su kissed their fifth child, he told the Holy Maiden, “Dear, I have a surprise for you later.” Li Su was in a great mood and headed for a bath and change of clothes to prepare for his Nascent Soul breakthrough.
