Chapter 10 - Three Immortals in a Row (1)
“Yes, I heard that the Li family ancestor has recently married two immortal maidens in a row.”
“Immortal women are just amazing. Li’s family ancestor is over a hundred years old, yet his health is better than mine, like a man in his thirties.”
“That’s for sure. Otherwise, why would the immortal maidens marry him.”
“…”
As the grand wedding procession passed through the largest city of Luo, it attracted many onlookers. For the people of Luo, witnessing the Li family ancestor taking on new wives every one or two years was a rare and lively event.
Moreover, every time the Li family ancestor married, the family would host a grand feast. Apart from the normal guests, the Li family would also set up a banquet by the Luo River, and anyone who wished to join in could enjoy a feast to their heart’s content.
For many poor families, the best meal they could have all year was during the Li family ancestor’s weddings. Therefore, many people followed when Li Su took on new wives. They were happy to partake in the festivities.
There were also many people eagerly anticipating Li Su taking on new wives so that they could have a good meal at the banquet.
After Li Su established his foundation, the frequency of his marriages increased significantly in recent years. It added much delight to the people living in Luo.
Inside the Li Mansion, decorations were up, and preparations were made.
This time, the bride was Zhang Yuer.
After the wedding, as night fell, Li Su entered his room. Zhang Yuer was sitting there nervously. She was wearing a red veil. Li Su lifted the veil. Underneath the veil was a beautiful woman with a shy expression and delicate features like lotus petals and willow-like eyebrows.
The room went dark…
“Dear husband, I think I’m pregnant.”
After more than half a month, Lu Weijia felt like she might be pregnant.
“Great!”
Li Su was overjoyed.
For Li Su, the more offspring he had, the chances of having a child with strong spiritual roots would be more. Li Su spent a little more time with Lu Weijia.
Although he had many women, they didn’t engage in palace intrigues like those in the imperial palace. The relationship between Li Su’s women remained very harmonious.
As Li Su took on more “immortal maidens,” there would inevitably be some differences between them and his other women.
It was not about Ning Xiaoyu or any other women acting superior or isolating a few immortal women, but rather that there was a distinction between immortals and mortals in this world.
The other women of Li Su would unconsciously defer to the immortal- women.
However, Ning Xiaoyu and the others were not interested in managing the family’s affairs, so the management of the family’s affairs was left to some of Li Su’s concubines, who had good character and handled things fairly.
Li Su gained fame in Luo City for accepting a few immortal women as his disciples.
After Shen Xue got married, Li Su did not plan to take any more concubines for a year.
If any of his concubines got pregnant, Li Su would spend time with them daily. However, after Zhang Yuer got pregnant, Shen Xue and Lu Weijia did not get pregnant for a long time.
Some ordinary women might get pregnant immediately, but it might take more time if they were cultivators.
Li Su wasn’t in a hurry either. After more than half a year, the youngest Lu Weijia finally had Li Su’s child.
The following year, Zhang Yuer successfully gave birth to another child for Li Su.
“Master, this child has spiritual roots!”
Zhang Yuer was overjoyed because she and Li Su’s first child also had spiritual roots. Li Su was also quite happy.
This child brought the number of his descendants with spiritual roots to a total of four.
Two months passed, and Lu Weijia still had not given birth, but Ning Xiaoyu’s belly had grown larger again.
Ning Xiaoyu was not worried because she knew that the more children she had, the happier Li Su seemed to be.
After being married to Li Su for so long, as long as Li Su was happy, Ning Xiaoyu was willing to do whatever he wanted.
Moreover, after reaching the foundation-building stage, Ning Xiaoyu also wanted more offspring.
If one had extremely good spiritual roots and could continuously make rapid progress and increase their lifespan, they would rarely consider the issue of offspring.
Even if they did consider it, it would often be after the other person had grown to a certain stage.
However, many cultivators who were hopeless in reaching the foundation-building stage had a limited lifespan, so they naturally considered this issue.
In some ways, descendants were equivalent to the continuation of life. Ning Xiaoyu’s fourth child finally had spiritual roots, but they weren’t as good as the first child.
Li Su didn’t care as long as they had spiritual roots. It benefited him by enhancing his own spiritual roots.
