Chapter 245: Young Master of Li Family: I Want to Take Azure Cold Moon as a Concubine!
Thunderous lightnings shine, thunderclaps startle the world!
Unbelievably terrifying pressure surged down from the heavens, pouring over Red Dust Mountain.
The elders and disciples all exclaimed in shock, their faces pale, having never experienced such a terrifying sight.
“No need to be afraid!”
Zhou Tong said calmly, “This thunder tribulation won’t stir up waves!”
“Profound Sky Nine Flowers Great Formation, activate!”
With a command, he shot into the sky, infinite radiance surging from all directions, gathering into his body.
With the power of the formation, he aimed to battle against the heavens!
“Union Lock, break the tribulation!”
A blood-red chain transformed into a sharp whip, striking into the vast sky, shattering the thunder and protecting all below.
However, this was just the beginning; the heavenly tribulation of the holy array began to show its signs, unleashing a massive phenomenon, shaking the land for three thousand miles, illuminating the nine heavens!
In the distant Central Continent, true powerhouses were stirred, all instinctively looking in that direction.
“What is that?”
An illustrious sage with over a century of fame furrowed his brow, noticing a magnificent glow rising in the east, as if a divine omen had appeared, captivating the soul.
“It must be some extraordinary treasure being born, or perhaps, a top-tier powerhouse breaking through a barrier!”
Someone speculated, their expression serious yet hopeful.
“A mere Eastern Continent, a trivial place; how could there be any strong power? It must be a top-notch treasure that is reappearing in the world!”
At this moment, in the headquarters of the Joyful Union Sect, the leisurely Ancestral Master suddenly opened her eyes.
“What’s going on? My merits have increased so much!”
Frowning, as a powerhouse at the Sage Peak, if she wanted to reach a higher level, it would require the revival of spiritual energy in heaven and earth to unlock the Dao locks; otherwise, there was only one path to tread.
That path was to gather the power of merit, to unite the wishes of all beings, in order to break the shackles!
However, gathering the power of merit was no easy task.
Teaching and transmitting knowledge, establishing a sect, and protecting all beings constituted great merit.
Since she established the Joyful Harmony Celestial Skill and founded the Joyful Union Sect in her youth, an endless stream of merit power had flowed into her body.
Because of this, her path of cultivation had been remarkably smooth, with almost no one able to match her at the same level.
Now, the surge in her merit power could only signify one thing: something incredible was happening in the branch of the Joyful Union Sect.
“Could it be that little girl?”
The figure of Mu Ran Ya floated in the Ancestral Master’s mind, and upon seeing the phenomenon in the east, she could no longer sit still.
“Someone! I want to go to the Eastern Continent!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire sect trembled.
“Master, think twice! The Hundred Sects Convention is imminent; this is a time of turmoil, and the sect still needs you to preside. You absolutely cannot leave at this time!”
The eldest disciple stepped forward to explain the pros and cons!
“The accursed Hundred Sects Convention, it couldn’t start at any other time but now, deliberately hindering me from seeing my beloved disciple!”
“Cough, cough…”
The eldest disciple awkwardly coughed a few times, trying to alleviate the Master’s anger, and hurriedly said, “You may not know this, but your former disciple has just joined the Celestial Master Clan, and she has become their Virgin Saint!”
“Is this really true?”
The Ancestral Master’s eyes brightened.
“Absolutely true; it was You Jingfeng who told me himself.”
“Ah, it’s that little brat!”
Upon hearing this, the corner of the eldest disciple’s eyes twitched involuntarily.
You Jingfeng had terrifying talent and was among the top powers among sages.
Never did he expect her to be referred to as a little brat in the eyes of the Ancestral Master.
But this wasn’t wrong; under heaven, only the Ancestral Master had the qualifications to call him that.
“Prepare ample gifts for me; I want to personally go to the Celestial Master Clan and see my beloved former disciple!”
Meanwhile, at the Li Family in the Central Continent…
All the high-ranking members were gazing towards the phenomenon in the Eastern Continent, their expressions particularly vivid.
“There must definitely be a treasure being born; if I am not mistaken, it should be the treasure from that secret realm!”
Li Congxin, the head of the Li Family, said decisively, earning the approval of the other high-ranking members.
At that moment, a youthful boy with rosy lips and white teeth suddenly spoke up.
This boy was feminine and handsome, with a resemblance to Zhou Tong, and his voice dripped with sarcasm as he immediately spoke.
“The two useless ones, Li Chang and Li Gui, took the family treasures to the secret realm, and now they can’t be contacted. Have they perhaps run away with the treasures?”
“Don’t worry, they wouldn’t dare!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a brilliantly dressed, noblewoman approached. This was Lin Ruoxii, the matriarch of the Li Family.
“Those two little useless ones must have encountered danger and are temporarily unable to respond.”
“Hmph, it doesn’t matter what happens to them. If they lose the Purple Gold Red Gourd, Sheep Fat Jade Purifying Vase, and Golden Rope, then it will be an irredeemable loss!”
Li Xiang said coldly. He was not actually a biological son of the Li Family but an adopted orphan, yet now he enjoyed the same treatment as the Young Master of the Li Family.
“Hehe… Let’s not talk about that for now; in two years, Xiang’er is set to marry the candidate Virgin Saint of Heavenly Fire Sacred Ground. Their power is comparable to the Joyful Union Sect, and if this marriage goes through, my Li Family will surely rise!”
Upon hearing this, Li Xiang’s face suddenly became much more serious.
“What’s wrong? Aren’t you willing?”
Li Congxin asked, frowning.
“I just lack confidence; I don’t know what that person looks like or what her temper is like. I fear that I might not get along with her in the future, and it will make my life dull.”
“This…”
The couple from the Li Family fell momentarily silent, unsure of what to say.
“I do have a good method to avoid this outcome.”
“Quickly tell us.”
The couple’s faces brightened, saying indulgently.
“I want to take a concubine!”
This statement left the two of them thunderstruck.
“Child, marrying the Virgin Saint candidate to you is a descent!” Lin Ruoxii reminded.
This matter was serious; if they angered the Sacred Ground, the Li Family would be in grave danger.
“So what? Isn’t it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? If that woman doesn’t want to, then let her break the engagement!”
Upon hearing this, Li Congxin was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, as if he thought of a perfect solution.
“Xiang’er, don’t rush; with our Li Family’s strength, just take whichever woman you fancy directly without needing to give her a title. That way, the Sacred Ground won’t blame the Li Family for just one plaything!”
“Thank you, Father!”
Li Xiang said, overjoyed and extremely excited.
“Xiang’er, do you already have someone in mind?”
Lin Ruoxii teased from the side.
“Indeed!”
Li Xiang smiled, a fiery red figure flashing through his mind. Just days ago, he had met that girl, and he had become deeply infatuated, thinking of her day and night, unable to extricate himself!
“Tell me all about it; I want to see which girl is so fortunate as to win my son’s favor?”
“Mother, do you remember the grand event held by the Celestial Master Clan not long ago?”
“Of course, I remember; they welcomed back the Virgin Saint of their clan; her name seems to be…”
“It’s Azure Cold Moon; I want to make her my woman!”
Li Xiang said greedily, showing no signs of concealing his desires.
