Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch's Marriage

Shi Qi and Zi Yi had already given him feedback, having intercepted the secret calls for help sent out by Murong Ying.

Murong Ying’s expression faltered for a moment before she turned back into an iceberg goddess, her pretty face utterly indifferent.

She didn’t know if this person had truly intercepted the messages, or if he was just bluffing her. Murong Ying believed it was the latter, as a Saint of the Saint Abyss Realm could not accomplish this yet.

As for the outcome, she only needed to feign ignorance and stall for time until it became clear.

Seeing Murong Ying’s expression, Han Li smiled and said, “You ask me what my purpose is, I might as well tell you.”

“The ancestor has taken a liking to you and wants you to become my Dao companion.”

Ever since he found out Murong Ying was a divided soul of Empress Yuanchu, Han Li understood that Yao Xi was most likely a divided soul of the Empress Huanyue.

He already had a divided soul of Empress Huanyue as a Dao companion, to take a divided soul of Empress Yuanchu as another Dao companion would be sheer bliss.

Old Ancestor Han thought this was a good omen and decided to warm up to the idea in advance.

When he became stronger in the future, and could bring Empress Yuanchu and Empress Huanyue as his Dao companions, then his satisfaction would be complete.

Hmm, they seem to like splitting their souls, could there be many more divided souls…

At that moment, Old Ancestor Han felt he too had started to like the idea of divided souls.

As for marrying Murong Ying and cultivating together, and after she gave birth to a child, whether Empress Yuanchu would send someone over or not, Old Ancestor Han expressed that he didn’t care.

After all, he had already provoked Empress Huanyue, so having Empress Yuanchu against him as well wouldn’t make much difference.

If he could quietly deal with the Envoy of Empress Huanyue, then he could continue to stall for time. If not, he’d just throw the people of Han Mansion and The Li Manor into the System Space and take them away.

If he couldn’t win, he would just hide. When things settled down, they could continue to grow and prosper.

“You! What! Did! You! Say!”

Murong Ying was stunned for a moment, her tone icy cold to the extreme. If looks could kill, she would have slain this man countless times over by now.

This seemingly Saint Abyss Realm Saint turned out to be a lascivious person!

To actually lust after her body, how despicable!

This caused Murong Ying’s plans to feign ignorance to be shattered. She could consider other conditions, but this condition wasn’t even worthy of consideration.

Seeing that he was unmoved, Murong Ying spoke solemnly, “Do you know what you’re saying?”

“You should be aware of my identity. What you’re doing is tantamount to courting death. Even if I agreed, you would still be held to account by her afterward.”

Han Li had wanted to say that she needn’t worry about that, but after a thought, he changed his words, “To die under a peony, one becomes a ghost with charm.”

“Once we become Dao companions, and since I am a divided soul of Empress Yuanchu, doesn’t that make you equivalent to Empress Yuanchu’s Dao companion as well?”

“If she seeks to kill me, that would be akin to murdering her own husband.”

Murong Ying looked at him with a dumbfounded face. This man was not only lecherous and shameless, but also incredibly thick-faced and audacious to say such a thing.

“Whether you agree or not, this matter is settled,” Han Li stated with an indisputable tone.

After a pause, Han Li added, “This is Chengsheng Mountain, constantly monitored by Supreme Grade imperial soldiers, you won’t even have a chance to kill yourself. Prepare yourself well, the wedding is in three days.”

As Han Li’s words fell, his figure disappeared from the summit of Chengdao Peak.

Murong Ying felt weak and almost collapsed to the ground. The light veil on her face was lifted by the cool breeze, revealing a face of peerless beauty, radiant and otherworldly.

She had a very bad feeling in her heart. This person might have really intercepted her secret communication to her main body, otherwise he wouldn’t be so arrogantly forceful.

This person possesses a Supreme Grade Imperial Weapon, and it’s very possible that they could intercept a distress signal, preventing any reinforcements from arriving.

Even though her true form is Empress Yuanchu, Empress Yuanchu does not know that she has been captured and is still craving for her body.

Does she really have to become this person’s partner?

After struggling for a while, Murong Ying sighed. Her cultivation was sealed, and even her physical body and Divine Spirit were sealed, rendering her no different from an ordinary mortal woman.

Murong Ying looked around at the magnificent and majestic scenery, her face expressionless as she walked forward. Just a few steps ahead of her was a cliff. If she fell now, she would die, but Murong Ying no longer cared.

Although this person intercepted her call for help, he still coveted her body. If her Yuan Yin were lost, Empress Yuanchu’s true form would surely sense it and might directly come to Qianyuan Divine Province.

At that time, she would have no face to continue living. It would be better to die now.

As she took the fifth step, Murong Ying stumbled into emptiness, her entire body falling from the summit of Chengdao Peak. From a height of ten thousand meters, her mortal flesh was certain to perish.

Murong Ying closed her eyes, waiting for death.

“I said, Chengsheng Mountain has an Imperial Weapon monitoring it. You can’t commit suicide,” said Han Li’s voice beside Murong Ying’s ear. Murong Ying opened her eyes and found herself back on top of Chengdao Peak.

Murong Ying didn’t speak and simply jumped from the summit of Chengdao Peak again. Mid-fall, she realized she was back at the top of the peak, as if time had been reversed.

After attempting suicide several times, Murong Ying was certain this person truly possessed a Supreme Grade Imperial Weapon, a Time Emperor Soldier, making her own suicide impossible.

If activated, the Time Emperor Soldier could easily reverse time in a specific region.

“In fact, you don’t want to die, but you have no other choice, right?” Han Li’s figure reappeared at the summit of Chengdao Peak. He looked at Murong Ying, her beauty causing nations to fall, and said indifferently.

Murong Ying raised her eyebrows slightly but said nothing.

“Actually, you don’t have to worry. Even if you become my partner, Empress Yuanchu won’t know,” Han Li continued.

“You won’t touch me?” Murong Ying coldly sneered.

“Of course, I will,” Han Li said without hesitation.

“Then it’s impossible to keep it a secret,” Murong Ying said coldly.

The Supreme Grade Imperial Weapon may be strong, but so is Empress Yuanchu—she is not someone to be trifled with. She has left special measures with each of her split spirits, which would activate once the Divine Soul is unsealed.

If she were to lose her virginity, Empress Yuanchu would know instantly. Even if her true form doesn’t know who is responsible, she would undoubtedly be furious.

Her true form had long been aware of her presence in the Qianyuan Divine Province. If she came personally and used an Immortal Soldier to search for cause and effect, even the Supreme Grade Imperial Weapon wouldn’t be able to hide her traces.

“I have my ways,” Han Li smiled.

If all else fails, he could just hide Murong Ying in the System Space. Even Empress Yuanchu, in all her strength, would not be able to detect the System Space. With two Supreme Grade Imperial Weapons for protection and the Top Grade Emperor Formation Diagrams, he could leave quietly.

“Heh heh~” Murong Ying coldly chuckled, her expression clearly saying, “Keep fooling yourself.”

“Never mind, think it over,” said Han Li.

Han Li sighed. Yao Xi was so much better in comparison. He decided to let her think it over herself; after all, he would be holding the wedding ceremony in three days.

Han Li’s figure disappeared, leaving only his words echoing in Murong Ying’s ears.

“Don’t you want to become completely independent?”

PS: Not in good form today, will make up for it tomorrow.
