Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch's Marriage

a war chariot crossed the heavens, its body shimmering in purple and gold, bursting with divine light, dazzling and majestic, commanding and awe-inspiring, like a sky god surveying his domain.

Engraved upon the chariot were numerous Sacred Rank Runes, and it featured four Golden Crow engravings, lifelike to the slightest detail. As the chariot soared, one could see four Golden Crows materializing, circling around in flight, their presence lending ever greater speed to the chariot.

Pulling the chariot forward were five exotic beasts, each possessing the early cultivation of the Tongxuan Realm. When the chariot came to a halt, they turned into statues; and when the chariot set off, they revived, leading the chariot onwards.

Within the Sky God War Chariot, the interior was lavishly decorated, arranged exquisitely, forming a small space on its own, over a hundred times larger than it appeared from the outside.

At that moment, Han Li lay on a soft cushion, relishing the ministrations of Sect Hierarch Yun Miaoyi, who fed him grapes.

This journey was to resolve the hidden dangers within the “Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture” and to acquire the subsequent cultivation techniques of this immortal scripture. Following Lu Tianxiang’s description, the distance was likely great, and obviously, Han Li wouldn’t foolishly take to the skies embracing Lu Tianxiang.

He naturally took out a mode of transportation: the Sky God War Chariot, which was a Top Grade Divine Weapon of the Sacred Abyss tier—a treasure Han Li had obtained from opening a treasure box and saw a chance to utilize.

Steering the Sky God War Chariot, Han Li could bask in affectionate moments with Lu Tianxiang inside the chariot, all while journeying to his destination—an utterly carefree and enjoyable experience.

“My lord, is it really okay to be so conspicuous?”

As she put away the unfinished grapes, Lu Tianxiang asked with a hint of worry.

Although surprised by the sight of a Sacred Soldier chariot for travel, Lu Tianxiang was not curious; she had grown used to it, her lord husband already owning several Supreme Grade Emperor Weapons.

Yet, with Han Li’s power clearly insufficient to stand invincible in Qianyuan Divine Province, according to his character, he should be traveling incognito, cultivating in secret rather than revealing himself.

The Sky God War Chariot was too domineering, and driving it across Qianyuan Divine Province was sure to alert the attention of those from Great Holy Land Schools, potentially exposing their home at Chengsheng Mountain.

Without realizing, Lu Tianxiang had also grown accustomed to this discreet growth and quiet breakthroughs, finding the stealthy approach best. As long as there were enough cultivation resources, it was infinitely better to keep a low profile than to engage in battles and killings.

“Don’t worry, sweetheart, they won’t find out,”

Han Li said with a smile, full of confidence.

For safety on the journey, he brought along with him two Supreme Grade Emperor Weapons—the Void Bell and the Time-Sky Tower—while the Supreme Grade Emperor Weapon, the Life-Prolonging Furnace, and the Top Grade Emperor Weapon, the Chengdao Vial, were left behind at Chengsheng Mountain to anchor its luck and destiny.

Though these two Emperor Weapons were auxiliary in nature, they were still of the Heaven Imperial Realm tier. Should a true conflict arise, none in Qianyuan Divine Province would stand a chance against them.

However, Han Li did not task Zi Yi or Yao Xi with concealing their tracks; that task fell to the Emperor Formation diagrams he carried with him. With the Emperor Formation masking their fates, even the rulers of the Sacred Lands wouldn’t sense them unless they deliberately activated Immortal Weapons.

The Emperor Formation, known as the “Twelve Heavens Divine Demon Great Formation Diagram,” had become a battle garment ever since Han Li obtained this Heaven Imperial Realm level diagram, ensuring he wore it at all times to prevent mishaps.

Han Li considered the Emperor Formation exceedingly useful—not only could it shield their destiny from prying eyes, but it also served as defense, and in crucial moments, it could launch a deadly offensive.

Hearing this, Lu Tianxiang nodded slightly, then asked, “My lord, is there truly a trap within the ‘Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture’?”

Lu Tianxiang had sensed the call of the scripture when she reached the True Martial Realm, leading her to seek the subsequent cultivation techniques of the “Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture.” She had refrained from doing so, suspecting it to be a trap, only because her lord husband held doubts about it.

Before that, Lu Tianxiang had considered switching her cultivation technique. At the Han Mansion, there were arts of the Sacred Abyss realm available, and there was no need to cling to the Lower Grade Heaven-ranked scripture, especially since the first half of the “Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture” was merely of an ordinary True Martial Realm level.

But seeing her lord husband’s confidence in resolving the problem, Lu Tianxiang repressed her other thoughts. Acquiring the complete immortal scripture would undoubtedly be a great fortune for her.

Lu Tianxiang held a significant sense of crisis within her heart. She was now eager to improve her strength, longing to swiftly progress to the Divine Yuan Realm and even the Tongxuan Realm. An intact “Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture” would be a shortcut to achieving this goal.

Her worry did not stem from external threats, but rather from internal ones. Her lord husband had married too many wives, causing Lu Tianxiang considerable anxiety.

In the past, as her lord husband’s first wife, she had always positioned herself as the foremost among his consorts—after all, she was the earliest to join him and the highest in terms of cultivation.

Jiang Baiye, Yun Miaoyi, Gongsun Yue, and even Yao Xi, as well as the wives in The Li Manor, had all been of lesser cultivation levels compared to her, cementing her position securely. Jiang Baiye, Yun Miaoyi, and her other sisters showed her great respect.

But in the recent years, her lord husband’s cultivation had soared, and he had taken on many new wives. Bai Keqing, Long Yue, Xue Yueqing, and others had higher cultivation levels than her and were no less appealing in appearance, and some were even more so.

She also learned from her lord husband some secrets: Yao Xi and the newly arrived Murong Ying were suspected to be the reincarnated soul shards of female emperors from the Heaven Imperial Realm, with astonishingly prominent backgrounds.

Lu Tianxiang felt she could no longer hold the fort. Long Yue was close to breaking through to the Divine Yuan Realm. Xue Yueqing was already a Demon Emperor of the Divine Yuan Realm, advancing towards the Tongxuan Realm. With Yao Xi and Murong Ying as the female emperors’ soul shards, their cultivation speed was startlingly fast.

Lu Tianxiang realized that while they were cordial towards her, they would not show her the same deference as Yun Miaoyi, Jiang Baiye, Gongsun Yue, and others did. After all, they had known her for less time, and their status and cultivation levels far surpassed her own.
