Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!

“Master, let’s not rush. We should be cautious. This could be a trap,” Li Su’s warning resonated within the Great Yan Sword Formation.

Despite the pathetic state of the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon after Li Su’s relentless assault, her sorry appearance might have been an act. Even though she was undeniably seriously injured, there was a chance she had hidden tricks up her sleeve, aiming to catch Li Su off guard and turn the situation around.

Speaking of the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon, she was formidable primarily due to her powerful secret techniques. Without her secret techniques, the Great Yan Sword Formation alone could have dealt with her. When she unleashed her secret techniques, even without Li Su resorting to the Purple Twilight Divine Thunder and with the cooperation of the sect leader, she would still be defeated in the end.

Such secret techniques that allowed for a sudden burst of power within a short period were unsustainable. When her secret techniques wore off, she would indeed be defeated. Otherwise, why would she be so anxious? If it weren’t for her facing the attacks of the Sword Formation and the sect leader, she would have adopted a defensive stance to break through the formation with all her might. The Purple Twilight Divine Thunder might have already killed her.

Li Su’s main concern was the possibility of unexpected complications. Her secret techniques were already terrifying, but what if she had additional hidden resources and used them when Li Su wasn’t vigilant, creating an opening in the formation? She only needed a small opening, not a substantial gap, to break free. Just a tiny, pinhole-sized opening would suffice for her escape.

She could escape because she could abandon her body and flee with her Nascent Soul. That would be a successful escape. As long as her Nascent Soul remained intact, she could find a way to possess another being and stage a comeback.

Possessing another body was a rare and often once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in cultivation. Even if someone had an exceptionally high cultivation level, attempting possession a second time was typically impossible. Moreover, one couldn’t possess just anyone.

Trying to possess an ordinary mortal was not feasible since their bodies lacked spiritual roots and were physically weak. If an immortal tried to possess such an individual, their body would likely collapse. Even if it didn’t collapse, it was highly unlikely for a cultivator to possess an ordinary mortal, unless they were exceedingly foolish.

Li Su’s concern about unexpected events led him to decisively use the Purple Twilight Divine Thunder to eliminate any chance the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon escaped. Allowing her to escape would have given rise to endless future problems. Sometimes, one had to employ available means without hesitation to eliminate threats and pave the way for a new era.

Indeed, treasures are meant to be utilized. Inside the Great Yan Sword Formation, the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon lay motionless, showing no signs of activity. Li Su waited for over an hour, but there was still no sign of movement from her. Then, Li Su’s hand moved, and several flying immortal swords were launched. Beside him, the sect leader remained silent. Although she had significantly contributed to the battle, the key figure remained Li Su.

The Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon was undeniably powerful, and given time to grow, the sect leader might eventually not fear her. However, there were no “ifs” in this situation. It could be said that without Li Su in this battle, the difficulty would have been significantly higher, and there might have even been a defeat.

If they had truly faced defeat, besides the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon making her escape, it was likely that the people of the Flying Immortal Sect wouldn’t have survived. This drastically altered how the sect leader perceived Li Su.

As the next steps unfolded, the sect leader was prepared to follow Li Su’s lead wholeheartedly. Soon, several flying immortal swords flew towards the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon, but the distance between the two groups was still considerable, spanning several miles. When the flying immortal swords approached, they delicately cut away at the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon’s clothing.

Li Su expertly controlled the flying immortal swords for this task, ensuring that the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon’s skin remained unharmed. Both of them being at the Eighth Layer of the Golden Core realm meant Li Su possessed the required level of precision.

This action left the sect leader in awe, and she couldn’t help but inquire, “Li Su, what is your intention here?” She had a hunch about Li Su’s motives, given his reputation for enjoying the company of beautiful women among his numerous concubines. She couldn’t help but wonder if he had ulterior motives.

“Master, please just observe,” Li Su replied with a simple request. Meanwhile, the flying immortal swords continued their work. Her suspicions grew.

At this moment, inner turmoil peaked within the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon. She had indeed been feigning unconsciousness. At the critical moment, she had shifted to a purely defensive stance, utilizing all her hidden resources to maximize her defenses. This allowed her to block the devastating power of the Purple Twilight Divine Thunder and narrowly escape disaster, after which she pretended to lose consciousness.

Unfortunately, even though she had successfully thwarted the attack, the cost had been immense, and she remained injured. If the Purple Twilight Divine Thunder had been unleashed in an open area, she could have easily evaded it by putting some distance between herself and the attack.

However, Li Su had left her with no space to evade within the confines of the Great Yan Sword Formation. His tactics were cunning and malicious. He had hurled the Purple Twilight Divine Thunder at her and immediately activated the formation, directing it straight towards her side. Li Su’s timing was impeccable, and the explosion was imminent once it reached her. Fortunately, her quick reflexes had saved her from certain doom.

Now heavily injured and with little combat strength remaining, she contemplated whether to abandon the pretense of unconsciousness and launch a desperate battle. She had one more card to play, intending to catch Li Su off guard when he approached her closely. However, to her surprise, Li Su didn’t fall for her ruse. He avoided it and employed the flying immortal swords to shred her clothing, exposing her as her already tattered garments were further torn apart.

Li Su appeared to be on a mission to undress the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon completely. At this point, it was impossible for her heart not to be in turmoil. As a prestigious Dark Sect Holy Maiden, she found this treatment utterly humiliating, especially while feigning death. However, she couldn’t deny that Li Su’s suspicions had grown, and if he had no intention of capturing her, he could have easily killed her.

With these thoughts weighing on her, the Holy Maiden of the Silent Moon abruptly stood up, glaring towards the flying immortal swords. Even as a Dark Sect Holy Maiden, she wouldn’t endure such humiliation, even in death.
