Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch’s Marriage - Chapter 571

Chapter 571: Chapter 230: The Great Loving Ancestor Gets Married! Blissful Ji Mingyue! Treasure Chest Explosion, the Second Immortal Weapon Obtained!_1

Half a month later, Han Li decided to give Ji Mingyue and Yuan Youwei a breather, allowing them one day to think things through.

When the time came, Han Li would seek them out for a heart-to-heart talk about life’s ideals, and if they still didn’t know what was good for them, refusing to comply obediently, Patriarch Han was ready to use force.

He wasn’t a man of great patience, and the only reason he had granted Ji Mingyue and Yuan Youwei so much time was out of respect for their standings as the Saint of the Sacred Abyss Realm and the Empress of the Quasi Emperor Domain. Once his patience ran out, he would make the two women understand the consequences of defying him.

Chengdao Peak, Cloud View Terrace.

Ji Mingyue’s green garments fluttered, her figure graceful and poised, her face exquisitely beautiful, her demeanor transcendent and ethereal;

beside her stood Yuan Youwei in a purple dress, her slender and exquisite body curving alluringly, beautiful as a banished immortal descending to the mortal world.

At that moment, Ji Mingyue and Yuan Youwei were quietly watching the billowing sea of clouds, neither of them speaking, yet the atmosphere was heavy with tension.

“Sigh~”

With a long sigh, Ji Mingyue turned to Yuan Youwei, her lips tightly pressed, and it was a long time before she spoke, asking, “What do you plan to do?”

Ji Mingyue’s mind was in turmoil, for the first time feeling utterly at a loss. Even when Han Li had overpowered her, she still retained some composure, depending on the strong backing of the Huangyue Imperial Empire.

But over the past half-month, following Han Li and Zi Miao really on the tour around Chengsheng Mountain, Ji Mingyue’s confidence was systematically dismantled as she witnessed the various foundations of Chengsheng Mountain.

By today, she had lost all her confidence, replaced by shock, panic, despair, and regret…

In many respects, Chengsheng Mountain was indeed far from matching the Huangyue Imperial Empire, but in the most critical matter of Immortal Soldiers, it was on par. With Han Li in charge, it would be extremely difficult for the Empress of Huangyue to rescue her.

The Empress of Huangyue would not find Chengsheng Mountain easily, and even if she did, she couldn’t just obliterate it with ease.

Giving Han Li and Chengsheng Mountain time meant that the Endless Yuankun Domain would soon have another supreme being, an additional powerful force to reckon with.

Ji Mingyue finally understood why her arch nemesis, Zi Miao really, had submitted and agreed to become Han Li’s Dao Companion.

Although Han Li had not said it outright, both Ji Mingyue and Yuan Youwei knew what he wanted: for both women to become his Dao Companions.

These past few days, Han Li’s approach was to try to conquer without fighting.

This had indeed had a significant effect, at least shaking the firm beliefs in Ji Mingyue’s heart.

“Ji Mingyue, you are wavering,” Yuan Youwei said indifferently.

“Han Li is just a minor cultivator at the first layer of the Tongxuan Realm, while you are the Saintess of the fourth layer of the Sacred Abyss Realm. You surely don’t want to lower yourself to him, do you? Ridiculous!”

Yuan Youwei’s gaze pierced Ji Mingyue’s, causing her to avert her eyes, yet she had indeed begun to entertain such thoughts.

“Ji Mingyue, I urge you to think carefully. Han Li isn’t worthy of you,” continued Yuan Youwei.

“Whether Han Li is a reincarnation of an Immortal or has obtained an Immortal’s treasure and risen to power in one fell swoop, you must realize that he is ultimately only at the first layer of the Tongxuan Realm.”

“With both Zi Miao really, you, and me gone from the Qianyuan Divine Province, it will undoubtedly cause an uproar. Han Li won’t be able to hide it. When Yuanchu Mountain, Huangyue Imperial Empire, and White Emperor City all aim at him, what will Han Li have to fend them off?”

Yuan Youwei turned away, her gaze returning to the majestic sea of clouds. With her slender and fair hands clasped behind her, she spoke calmly,

“I admit Han Li’s foundation has exceeded my expectations, but that’s as far as it goes. He doesn’t compare to the three greatest powers. No matter how strong the Human Path Sword is, it cannot withstand the attacks from three True Immortal weapons, let alone that the three great powers also possess more than ten Heavenly Immortal weapons.”

“Don’t forget, Han Li’s Chengsheng Mountain is also an entity that everyone in the Qianyuan Divine Province wants to strike down. It merely has a veneer of glory, which will vanish once its true nature is exposed. Great Holy Land Schools like Bai Yujing, Xumi Mountain, and Penglai Immortal Sect will all converge to attack, and Chengsheng Mountain won’t be able to hold,” she continued.

“If you marry Han Li as a Dao Companion, you would be betraying the Huangyue Imperial Empire, forsaking the Empress of Huangyue, descending to the same level as Zi Miao really. When Chengsheng Mountain falls, you two will also face retribution.”

“Even if you somehow survive, you will be severely punished, and your futures ruined. For Han Li, for a fleeting moment of comfort, do you really think it’s worth it?”

After saying her piece, Yuan Youwei ignored Ji Mingyue and continued to enjoy the scenery, seemingly unaffected by the predicament they were in.

In fact, Yuan Youwei also had her own considerations, but after weighing the pros and cons, she had discarded them. She placed more trust in Yuanchu Mountain and the Empress Yuanchu over Chengsheng Mountain and Han Li.

Han Li’s cultivation was too low. No matter how boundless his potential, he had yet to grow up, and the three sovereigns would easily crush him.

Zi Miao really, Ji Mingyue, and herself had connections with powerful backers. If they were absent for too long, it would elicit searches from those powers.

Once that happened, Han Li’s Chengsheng Mountain would have nowhere to hide and fall into the dire situation Yuan Youwei described, not having nearly enough time to develop. Yuan Youwei did not want to be buried with Han Li.

She was a Quasi Emperor, with a bright future ahead of her. She still aspired to ascend to the Heaven Imperial Realm, master the Heavenly Sovereign Path, realize the Dao to become an Emperor, and reign supreme in the Endless Yuankun Domain.

She spoke so much to Ji Mingyue not out of kindness or any particular affection, but only to keep her as an ally, hoping it might buy them more time, making Han Li wary and hesitant.
