Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!

“Master, I wonder if any cultivation families have been wiped out in the Four Qi Kingdom or the Northern Yan Kingdom?”

Li Su didn’t immediately reveal the answer but asked, noticing the inquiring gaze in the headmaster’s eyes.

Although he had already identified the cultivator named Bai, Li Su wanted to gather more information.

“Senior brother, our master received news a couple of days ago that several cultivation families were destroyed in the Four Qi Kingdom. Lielongmen suspects it was the work of demonic cultivators, but they have been missing for many years. We don’t know where they came from, and Lielongmen hasn’t found any clues yet,” Su Yun said.

Several cultivation families in the Four Qi Kingdom were wiped out! This news didn’t come as a surprise to Li Su. It had been several months since the three major immortal sects came to compete for the Spiritual Stone Mine in the region of the three secular countries.

In the past two months, three cultivation families in Wu Kingdom were annihilated.

White-named cultivators were not active in the Wu Kingdom but in the region controlled by the three major immortal sects. Having knowledge about the cultivation world in the three secular countries, Li Su suspected that this person had killed dozens of cultivators this time.

He had targeted wandering cultivators at the gatherings, many of whom had disappeared. While it was normal for cultivators to disappear for a few years, the large number of missing cultivators raised suspicion.

Li Su guessed that the cultivator named Bai was afraid of arousing suspicion after kidnapping so many wandering cultivators at the gatherings. Therefore, he chose to target cultivation families this time.

Li Su anticipated that after this successful operation, the cultivator named Bai would hide somewhere to digest his gains and improve his strength before coming out again. At that time, he might even choose to target stronger cultivators.

“Brother, who is the culprit?” Su Yun asked after explaining the situation.

Li Su still didn’t reveal the answer and decided to capture the cultivator named Bai first. He didn’t want to be caught off guard, as demonic cultivators were known for their ruthless methods and lack of taboos.

Li Su thought it would be safer to request a magic weapon from the headmaster, a weapon that would also pose a threat to Golden Core stage cultivators. This would ensure that he could handle any situation while capturing the cultivator named Bai.

Hearing Li Su’s request, the headmaster raised his hand and sent a golden talisman flying towards Li Su. It was made of a material similar to gold, known as mysterious gold. The talisman was inscribed with numerous intricate small swords.

“This is an Immortal Flying Talisman. When activated with spiritual power, it can form an Immortal Flying Sword Formation that can threaten even Golden Core Initial Stage cultivators. Take it for self-defense,” the headmaster explained.

Li Su gladly accepted the talisman, realizing that it was a rare and precious treasure. He knew that using mysterious gold as the material allowed for multiple uses, making it a talisman treasure.

“Thank you, Sect Leader!” Li Su expressed his gratitude.

Su Yun volunteered to accompany Li Su, as she was more familiar with the surrounding area.

Li Su agreed to her suggestion, and they prepared to set off, ensuring they were well-prepared to capture the cultivator named Bai.

“Wandering cultivators primarily operate in four regions, and the most recent casual cultivators are in this direction,” Su Yun pointed in one direction on the flying boat.

“Junior Sister, have you heard of a casual cultivator named Bai at the Foundation Establishment Stage?” Su Yun asked.

“I have heard of him. He was seen around the cliff area a few days ago,” Su Yun replied.

“In which direction?” Li Su inquired.

“Senior Brother, this way,” Su Yun pointed.

The flying boat swiftly headed in that direction.

“Whoosh!” Suddenly, a strange bird emerged from the dense forest, shooting countless feathers as strong as metal.

“It’s a monster,” Su Yun exclaimed. She quickly summoned a mirror, creating a barrier that blocked the feathers.

“Go!” Su Yun retaliated with several swift strikes, causing the strange bird to screech. Despite its attempt to shoot more feathers, they couldn’t withstand the strikes and were pierced through.

Su Yun extended her hand, retrieving the swift strikes. They were small swords known as Flying Immortal Swords, commonly used by disciples of the Flying Immortal Sect.

“Senior brother, many monsters have been attracted by the spiritual stone mine. Although there are no third-level monsters in this area, we still need to be cautious,” Su Yun warned.

Li Su nodded, acknowledging his junior sister’s impressive strength and combat experience. She had a fifth-grade spiritual root, which meant that if they had children, their offspring would likely possess good spiritual roots. The better their children’s spiritual roots, the greater the enhancement it would bring to his own spiritual roots.

I’m being silly again, thinking about having babies, Li Su chuckled.

The flying boat continued its rapid journey. Along the way, they encountered scattered monsters, all of which Su Yun easily dispatched.

After flying for some time, they reached a towering cliff stretching a thousand feet high. The area below the cliff had crevices leading underground, making it an active region for wandering cultivators.

“Someone is coming,” Su Yun alerted.

“Are they from the sect?” Li Su inquired.

“It seems so… Oh, it’s Senior Li,” one of the wandering cultivators recognized Li Su.

“Senior Li,” other wandering cultivators flew out to greet him. Though they initially felt concerned due to his status as a disciple of the Immortal Sect and his recent promotion as a direct disciple of the sect’s leader, their worries dissipated upon Li Su’s reassurance that he wasn’t there to drive them away.

“Do you know someone surnamed Bai, a casual cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage? I need to find him,” Li Su casually asked.

“Senior Bai? He went underground. Some monsters have also entered the underground, and Senior Bai is helping us deal with them,” one of the casual cultivators replied.

Li Su nodded and asked, “Has he been here these days?”

“Yes, he’s been here almost every day. Senior Bai works tirelessly, sometimes staying underground for several days or even battling for half a month before resting for a day or two,” another casual cultivator explained.

Respect was evident in their words when it came to Senior Bai.

It seemed that he had some tricks up his sleeve. Taking advantage of his rest days, he could easily commit crimes unnoticed. As a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage, he could slip away under the guise of rest, and no one would disturb him during that time.

After wiping out a cultivation family, he would return, and numerous casual cultivators would vouch for him, making it impossible for anyone to suspect him.

However, Li Su was determined to expose him.

“How long will he be out?” Li Su asked.

“I’m not sure, but it should be soon. He has been in there for seven days this time,” a casual cultivator replied.

“Seven days,” Su Yun responded.

The timing matched. It had been eight days since the recent eradication of a cultivation family, and as soon as this guy returned, he showed up, creating an alibi.

“Where did he get in?” Li Su inquired.

“Senior Li, it’s from here,” one of the casual cultivators pointed out.

Li Su nodded and began setting up formations, leaving the casual cultivators curious about his actions but unable to comprehend or inquire further.

Soon, Li Su finished arranging a formation and patiently waited.

After about a day, Qi Refining Stage cultivators emerged from the underground. They appeared somewhat exhausted, with some bearing injuries, but their expressions showed signs of satisfaction, indicating they had gained something valuable.

After a while, the cultivator surnamed Bai finally surfaced.

“Senior White, how is the harvest?” Li Su asked.

“Senior Bai, Senior Li has something to discuss with you,” the Qi Refining Stage cultivators guarding outside informed him.

Curiously, Senior Bai looked up and spotted Li Su in the sky. He flew up and greeted him, acknowledging Li Su’s status as a direct disciple of the Flying Immortal Sect’s leader.

Li Su’s gaze briefly swept over him, noticing that Senior Bai had disguised himself well, showing no signs of suspicion.

Without wasting time, Li Su took out an array disc, and in the next moment, the surrounding scenery drastically changed as sunlight vanished, and a powerful formation firmly trapped the area.

Senior Bai’s expression changed, and he asked, “Brother Li, what does this mean?”

“Surnamed Bai, you have successively wiped out seven cultivating families in the Four Qi Kingdom and the Wu Kingdom, killing dozens of cultivators and thousands of mortals. Today, I am here to apprehend you!” Li Su declared firmly.

Confusion filled Senior Bai’s face as he protested, “Brother Li, what are you talking about? I have been here all this time, unaware of such significant events…”

“I know it’s you. Today is the day of your reckoning. Prepare to die!” Li Su forcefully interrupted Senior Bai’s words. He unleashed a talisman given by the sect’s leader, immediately employing his most potent attack.

Senior Bai’s face turned pale. He never expected that Li Su wouldn’t give him a chance to speak and would immediately target his life.

Senior Bai’s gaze revealed his inner turmoil, but he had no time to ponder further. Li Su launched a devastating assault right from the start. The talisman he wielded was terrifyingly powerful.

“Cursed!” Senior Bai exclaimed.

No more time for hesitation. Senior Bai’s aura suddenly changed, revealing the cultivation of the later stage of the Foundation Establishment. Moreover, his spiritual power carried a hint of blood.

“The eighth level of Foundation Establishment, blood-red spiritual power. He truly is a demonic cultivator,” Li Su smiled.

From the beginning, Li Su was convinced it was him. Indeed, it was this guy!
