BXBX NOVEL Chapter 149
Chapter 149
“Today, this old man is 96 years old. Young lady, you are so beautiful. You must be a fairy, right?” one of the old men replied.
“Miss, are you here to attend Immortal Li’s wedding? Have you seen Immortal Li? I heard that any girl who lays eyes on Immortal Li falls in love with him instantly,” another added.
“Yes, even fairies would fall in love with him.”
The old men continued to share stories about Li Su’s past, speaking highly of him. They were all quite excited to discuss Li Su’s various accomplishments.
“Miss, Elder Jin has arrived. Let’s go together into the Li Family residence,” a lively maidservant approached.
“Alright!”
“Thank you, respectful elders,” the woman replied, and she and the maidservant took off into the sky. This woman was Bi Luo.
Among those from the Bixia Sect attending the wedding were a peak Nascent Soul stage cultivator, Jin, and a mid-Nascent Soul stage elder.
The Bixia Sect’s sect leader was in seclusion, and some other smaller sects and Nascent Soul stage family members had also arrived.
Li Su’s capable descendants were busy attending to the numerous guests.
“In the sky, a procession of large crimson airships appeared, with Li Su among them.”
This time, although Li Su was taking in another concubine, the ceremony had been elevated in scale, and Li Su had taken the rare step of personally going to welcome the bride.
The process took more than ten days, and Li Su’s bride, Liu Xinyue, also personally escorted her sister to the Li Family residence.
“It’s so lively. All the sect leaders are here.”
“Yes, it’s a shame we didn’t see the Bixia Sect’s sect leader. I heard he reached the Nascent Soul stage.”
“Maybe they’re not in the Northern Territory. The last time at the Immortal Sect Ruins, it was Senior Bai who represented them.”
While the guests at the wedding chatted among themselves, an unexpected incident unfolded. Suddenly, a figure exuded a terrifying presence and swiftly ascended into the sky, blocking the wedding procession’s path. The overwhelming energy sent shockwaves through many cultivators, making them quiver and turn pale. Witnessing this, several sect leaders released their energies to counteract the oppressive force, offering some relief to those below. Simultaneously, these sect leaders ascended into the sky.
“What’s going on? A Nascent Soul cultivator? Where did this Nascent Soul practitioner come from? Is he here to cause trouble?”
“A newcomer? Could he be an outsider?”
Below, many cultivators breathed a sigh of relief and began discussing the situation.
Sect Leader of the Danxin Sect recognized the intruder and asked, “Jiang Chao, you’ve reached the mid-Nascent Soul stage, but today is Li Dao’s big wedding day. What brings you here?”
“Jiang Chao, if you have a business, let’s discuss it later,” cultivator Jin also seemed to be familiar with the intruder and spoke sternly.
“This matter doesn’t concern any of you. I hope you won’t interfere,” the Nascent Soul cultivator replied, then turned to Li Su. “You must be Li Su, right? I’ve admired Xinyue for many years. When I heard you were taking her as a concubine today, I specifically returned to the Northern Territory.”
“This was Xinyue’s choice. Jiang Chao can’t control that. But I have one question: what makes you deserving of Xinyue as a concubine?”
“Jiang Chao, this was my own choice. If you don’t leave now, I won’t be polite!” Liu Xinyue spoke coldly and stepped forward, her aura vibrating, indicating her readiness to take action.
Jiang Chao snorted, “Li Su, all you know how to do is hide behind…”
Before he could complete his sentence, Li Su launched an attack. Jiang Chao reacted quickly, instantly summoning his magical artifact.
Boom!
The clash resounded for miles around, and many Nascent Soul cultivators’ faces changed as they joined forces to suppress the disturbance caused by the battle.
This is problematic!
Jiang Chao’s magical artifact was no match, and his pupils constricted. He quickly activated a talisman, forming an unbreakable barrier. However, this barrier shattered under Li Su’s assault.
At a critical moment, Jiang Chao had to use another trump card to withstand Li Su’s attack barely. Using two crucial defensive mechanisms in such a short time caused him significant distress.
Not only was he distressed, but blood was also seeping from the corners of his mouth.
How can he be this formidable?
Jiang Chao was equally shocked. The information he had gathered indicated that Li Su was only at the fourth stage of the Nascent Soul stage just over a decade ago, comparable to him. But now, he was astonishingly powerful.
After delivering his strike, Li Su didn’t make another move or say a word. He just stared at Jiang Chao with a cold gaze, a look that sent shivers down Jiang Chao’s spine. It made him realize that if it weren’t for Li Su’s wedding today, he might have faced more than just injury. A fatal blow could have been waiting for him.
Jiang Chao recognized Li Su’s strength, “You are truly skilled. I commend you.”
Wiping away the blood from his mouth with spiritual energy, Jiang Chao left the scene and flew away.
This encounter left him humiliated. He had used two cards that could withstand the attacks of a peak Nascent Soul cultivator and still ended up injured.
The shockwaves of this encounter began to ripple among the onlookers. Nascent Soul cultivators and sect leaders were left dumbfounded as they stared at Li Su.
The display of power from Li Su’s single strike was nothing short of terrifying. Everyone was indeed astonished, including the Nascent Soul peak cultivator named Jin.
Standing beside Li Su, Liu Xinshui also stared at him in disbelief. Just over a decade ago, Li Su had reached only the fourth stage of the Nascent Soul stage when he obtained an inheritance in the Immortal Sect Ruins. But now, he had surpassed her by a significant margin.
According to her senses, he wasn’t merely at the seventh stage of the Nascent Soul stage. He had likely reached the eighth stage!
A decade or so to go from the fourth to the eighth of the Nascent Soul stage was nothing short of astonishing.
Liu Xinshui couldn’t help but wonder how Li Su had achieved such rapid progress. Had he been consuming Immortal Elixirs every day?
Some of those present, whose strength was not comparable with Li Su’s, were uncertain about his specific cultivation level. Still, they could all sense the enormous change in his aura.
“Li Dao friend, have you reached the eighth stage of the Nascent Soul stage?” the cultivator Jin asked.
“Yes, Senior,” Li Su replied.
“Hiss…”
The crowd couldn’t help but inhale sharply at this revelation.
Reaching the eighth stage of the Nascent Soul stage quickly was nothing short of miraculous and a cause for amazement.
The surrounding crowd was filled with gasps of disbelief. Even the cultivator Jin couldn’t help but be stunned.
The eighth stage of the Nascent Soul stage! It was an incredibly rapid pace of cultivation.
They couldn’t help but wonder if the inheritance Li Su obtained in the Immortal Sect Ruins was exceptionally powerful.
After all, many of their sects had disciples who obtained similar inheritances, most of which were Nascent Soul stage inheritances.
For Li Su to advance so rapidly, raised questions.
Could the inheritance he received contain the culmination of someone’s lifetime of cultivation?
Or perhaps Li Su possessed a spiritual root even more formidable than Immortal or Saintly roots?
While these Nascent Soul cultivators were astonished, their minds raced with speculations and hypotheses. Their facial expressions became quite colorful as they considered various possibilities.
