WTF, The Centuries-Old Ancestor In Our Family Take Concubine Again! - Chapter 4

Chapter 4: The old ancestor nabbed an immortal

“Xiaoyu, take these pills. I don’t need them,” Li Su said after contemplating for a while. He handed a few Peiyuan Pills, which he had received as rewards, to the female cultivator ‘Ning Xiaoyu’.

Ning Xiaoyu was taken aback by Li Su’s gesture. Peiyuan Pills were highly valuable elixirs for the Foundation Establishment period, and it was not easy for an average cultivator to obtain them during this stage of cultivation.

“Senior Li, these pills are incredibly precious. You should keep them for yourself,” Ning Xiaoyu said, touched by Li Su’s selflessness.

She couldn’t accept such valuable items. Peiyuan Pills were immensely beneficial for Foundation Building cultivators, let alone Qi Refining cultivators like herself.

However, Li Su insisted and firmly grabbed her hand, forcing the pills into her palm. “Senior Li…” Ning Xiaoyu protested, feeling moved by his unwavering determination.

At that moment, a mixture of emotions washed over her. She felt gratitude towards Li Su for his generosity, but she also experienced a sense of shyness. It was the first time she had such intimate contact with a man as she held the pills, an idea formed in her mind.

She realized that if she couldn’t successfully build her foundation, perhaps choosing a life partner and starting a cultivation family wouldn’t be a bad alternative.

Some Qi Refining cultivators made this choice when they realized their limitations in achieving foundation building. In the martial arts world, there still existed cultivation families, albeit not particularly powerful ones. These families mostly consisted of Qi Refining cultivators who lived a comfortable life by attaching themselves to immortal sects and avoiding unnecessary conflicts. The entire family would benefit if they were blessed with an outstanding descendant with spiritual roots.

“Senior Li…” Ning Xiaoyu called out softly, her gaze filled with tenderness and affection. Although she had heard rumors of Li Su having many concubines, she understood that it was a common practice in this world.

Furthermore, Li Su was still a Foundation Building cultivator, not yet reaching the Golden Core stage. As soon as he felt Ning Xiaoyu’s gaze, he discerned her intentions. Understanding her desire to bear his child, he gently held her hand, contemplating the possibility of having a Qi Refining cultivator give birth to his child if a Golden Core cultivator couldn’t.

Ning Xiaoyu’s body trembled slightly, a mix of excitement and nervousness coursing through her.

A few days later, as Li Su embarked on his journey back, Ning Xiaoyu accompanied him. The news of the patriarch of the Li family taking a new concubine quickly spread throughout the surrounding area, stirring excitement and gossip. People marveled at the fact that the patriarch had chosen a fairy-like woman as his wife. Although Ning Xiaoyu was still a Qi Refining cultivator, her exceptional beauty made her resemble an immortal in the eyes of ordinary people.

After marrying Ning Xiaoyu, Li Su immersed himself in his cultivation, diligently practicing day and night. Several months passed, and Ning Xiaoyu became pregnant. To their delight, not only Ning Xiaoyu, but also the concubines Li Su had taken previously became pregnant as well.

Li Su couldn’t help but smile. A few more months passed, and his children were born one after another.

“Husband, this child has an eighth-grade spirit root!” Ning Xiaoyu exclaimed with joy after giving birth.

She eagerly measured the child’s spiritual potential, which was excellent. Li Su knew that their first child possessed a remarkably high-grade spirit root—an eighth-grade, to be precise. It was a significant improvement compared to his own spirit root, which hadn’t even reached the mixed spirit root level. The birth of this child also provided a substantial boost to Li Su’s own spiritual potential.

“Your number of descendants has exceeded ten thousand, granting you a hundred years of cultivation and strengthening your spirit root to a certain extent,” a voice rang out, delivering another piece of good news.

In the following years, the number of Li Su’s descendants continued to increase, bringing him great joy and fulfillment.

To ensure the growth of their lineage, Li Su also encouraged the family’s descendants to have as many children as possible. As an incentive, Li Su offered rewards for each additional child. Surprisingly, not only did they receive rewards for having more descendants, but it also brought them greater happiness. It was a classic case of more children equating to more joy.

Investing a hundred years in cultivation… if only my spiritual foundation could be a tad stronger, Li Su pondered.

He could already sense that his cultivation had once again surged forward. At this stage, he progressed from the initial stage of foundation building to the third level. The results of his hundred years of cultivation surpassed his previous endeavors, primarily due to the strengthening of his spiritual foundation.
