Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch's Marriage

Han Li didn’t consider himself a good person, but when faced with such matters, he would help if he could. However, he would not go around helping everyone he came across, everything depended on fate. If he encountered someone in need, he would consider lending assistance.

As the two chatted on their way, Yao Xi returned to her carefree self as a young girl, a pure smile appearing on her face as she tirelessly asked Han Li to buy her tasty snacks, enjoying herself immensely.

After wandering around the mortal city for over an hour, Han Li took Yao Xi back to Chengsheng Mountain.

Since the treasure chest had refreshed for the month, Han Li didn’t hesitate. This time, he had Yao Xi do her hair in a double ponytail; then, while holding the double ponytails, he expended five years of his cultivation to open the chest.

On a screen visible only to Han Li, a dazzling flash of golden light appeared, followed by the system’s notification sound in Han Li’s mind.

“Ding~ Congratulations to the master for obtaining from the treasure chest a lower grade Emperor Level weapon[Cangdao Hall]!”

Han Li’s pupils contracted slightly with excitement, and he firmly gripped the steering wheel as a way to properly repay Yao Xi’s efforts.

His Divine Sense scanned the information about the Cangdao Hall, and he instantly understood the function of this Quasi Emperor weapon.

Although the Cangdao Hall was a lower grade Emperor weapon, its offensive capabilities weren’t strong, but it contained a vast space within itself. It could divide layer upon layer of space according to the master’s requirements. Within this space, living beings could survive for up to a year.

If Cultivation Techniques, martial skills, and Secret Techniques were placed inside, the Cangdao Hall would autonomously read all the scriptures and then deduce new Cultivation Practices and martial skills, continuously expanding the number of scriptures.

Of course, this was limited to Divine Rank Practices and martial skills and below. For Divine Rank, Emperor Level, or even Immortal Level Cultivation Techniques and martial skills, the Cangdao Hall was not capable of deducing entirely new versions.

Han Li made his decision immediately. He would use the Cangdao Hall to place all the scriptures and miscellaneous books of Han Mansion, organizing them categorically and managing them with the Cangdao Hall’s Artifact Spirit, just as he had envisioned before.

Previously, he had wanted to establish a Cangdao Peak to house the scripture library for ease of management, but he had lacked the necessary Divine or Emperor weapons.

Now that he had the Cangdao Hall, he could establish Cangdao Peak, and thus another peak would be added to Han Mansion.

Chengsheng Mountain stretched over seven hundred miles with a main peak that soared three thousand feet high, known as Chengdao Peak, along with sixteen subsidiary peaks ranging from three to five thousand meters in height.

By now, Han Li had already put to use many of the subsidiary peaks. Counting the soon-to-be-established Cangdao Peak, there were nine in total. Including Chengdao Peak, that made ten peaks of Chengsheng Mountain in use.

After dual cultivating with Yao Xi and spending some more time with her, Han Li eventually left her chamber then headed to Yundao Peak, where he gathered the main stewards of Han Mansion and announced the establishment of Cangdao Peak.

He briefly explained his plans and then left the details for these descendants to fill in, instructing them to refine the plan and submit it to him for review.

A month later.

Han Li asked the Divine Beast Kuiyi, along with the Artifact Spirits of the Combat Tower and Cangdao Hall, to look after the home. After informing his beloved wives and concubines, such as Xue Yueqing, Lu Tianxiang, Qiu Yueyao, and Liu Yuexin, he left Da Qian with Long Yue and headed towards the East Sea.

Long Yue had been married to him for several months, and in another two or three months, she was due to give birth. Long Yue found this to be strange.

Initially, Long Yue hadn’t wanted the child; she directly assimilated the essence left by Han Li. Later, unable to withstand Han Li’s repeated requests and his explanation that it wouldn’t affect her cultivation progress, Long Yue relented.

What Long Yue found strange was the fact that she was a Jiaolong, yet she also experienced a ten-month pregnancy? Typically, a ten-month pregnancy was only common among Human Clan mortals and first-step Cultivators. Human Clan’s second-step and higher Cultivators, the Demon Clan, Barbarian Clan, and other races usually had longer pregnancy periods.

As a Jiaolong, she should have had a pregnancy lasting at least thirty years; a hundred-year pregnancy was also considered normal. Yet Long Yue felt the child in her womb was already nearly fully developed and at most would be born in two or three months.

Looking at her husband who smiled without speaking, Long Yue suspected it was due to him. Among his other beloved wives and concubines, there were those from the Demon Clan, like Bai Keqing, who also had ten-month pregnancies.

“No wonder my husband said it wouldn’t much hinder cultivation,” Long Yue thought to herself silently.

A year was not a long time, and she could accept having a child. Although it would deplete her vital energy, her husband had already considered these things and prepared many heavenly materials and earthly treasures to nourish her and replenish her vital energy.

“Yue’er, we’ve arrived,”

While Long Yue was lost in her thoughts, Han Li, with his arms around her waist, brought her to the East Sea Dragon Palace.

“Husband, wait for me just a moment,”

Long Yue leaned in and kissed Han Li on the cheek, speaking softly.

Han Li nodded, watching Long Yue enter the Dragon Palace without trying to pry unnecessarily.

With the birth of the child imminent, Long Yue had told him she needed to retrieve two items from the East Sea, one of which was within the East Sea Dragon Palace.

Only after obtaining both items could the child possibly inherit her special physique from a previous life, as she no longer possessed the Profound Yin King Body in her current life.

To this end, Han Li naturally would not refuse her request and gladly accompanied Long Yue.

Of course, before their arrival, Han Li had Zi Yi check everything within tens of millions of miles to ensure there were no ambushes or threats. Even at that moment, Zi Yi was on standby, ready to activate the Void Bell at the slightest sign of trouble.

While Han Li trusted Long Yue, it was necessary to be cautious in unfamiliar places. He needed to make preparations; otherwise, it would be all too easy for things to go wrong unexpectedly.

Soon, Long Yue came back out and extended her right hand to Han Li, smiling, “Husband, look—”
