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

Chapter 242

“Senior Dieyun, there has been a sudden development in the Northern Region. I apologize, but I can’t stay any longer. I have to go back!” Li Su said, looking at Peak Master Dieyun.

Peak Master Dieyun immediately noticed the change in Li Su’s demeanor upon receiving the message and asked with concern, “Li Su, what’s going on? Is it urgent?”

“It’s nothing to worry about, just a minor matter,” Li Su replied casually, then turned his gaze towards the Head of the Xuantian Academy and the Sect Master of the Tianluo Sect.

“Senior, I’ll go on ahead,” Li Su said. With that, he mustered his strength and transformed into a streak of light, shooting up into the sky.

Surprised by Li Su’s sudden departure, the Head of the Xuantian Academy and the Sect Master of the Tianluo Sect exchanged a concerned glance, wondering what had occurred in the Northern Region.

Could it be related to the Eastern Family? Peak Master Dieyun pondered.

Over fifty years ago, a Nascent Soul pinnacle expert from the Eastern Family had come for the Sect Master. With some information she had, Peak Master Dieyun guessed that the Sect Master had connections with the Eastern Family, potentially involving some unresolved disputes within the family. Therefore, she didn’t react strongly, considering it an internal matter for the Eastern Family, similar to a semi-sacred land.

Seeing how urgently Li Su had left, Peak Master Dieyun felt a growing unease. She hesitated about whether to follow and investigate. The last time the Eastern Family had deployed a Nascent Soul pinnacle expert, they were defeated by Li Su. Given the long preparation time, it was highly likely they would deploy Refinement Void cultivators this time, which posed a much greater challenge.

While Li Su had improved in strength over the last fifty years, he might still struggle against Refinement Voids. Peak Master Dieyun, torn between not meddling in the Eastern Family’s affairs and helping Li Su, decided to act. She didn’t want to be involved in the Eastern Family’s disputes but was willing to assist Li Su, even if it incurred the Eastern Family’s enmity.

Being a first-class immortal sect, the Returning Origin Sect had its resources. Peak Master Dieyun informed her companions and departed for the Northern Region.

Shortly after, Bihai, who hadn’t greeted Li Su yet, also headed north after hearing about the situation. The Head of the Xuantian Academy and the Sect Master of the Tianluo Sect followed suit.

“The Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is also leaving!” a cultivator noticed.

Even though the birthday celebration wasn’t over yet, Li Su’s abrupt departure and the subsequent departure of several Refinement Void experts had taken everyone by surprise. This prompted curiosity, and many cultivators began to head to the Northern Region.

“Senior Che is going to the Northern Region as well. Junior Sister Tiantian, should we follow?” a female cultivator asked.

Tiantian, noticing Che’s departure, had already taken flight. “Senior Sister, wait for me!” she exclaimed, following suit.

The birthday celebration took an unexpected turn as many cultivators rushed to the Northern Region to investigate the significant upheaval. It wouldn’t have gathered such a large response if this had happened before Li Su’s arrival. However, Li Su’s extraordinary performance with the heavens and the earth as his instrument had left a lasting impression on everyone.

In addition to Peak Master Dieyun and several experts from Refinement Void, the curiosity of many individuals led them to follow along.

“Boom!”

At this moment, on Mangkang Mountain, the protective formation of the Flying Immortal Sect was under attack by a magical artifact. This magical artifact resembled a massive calamity cloud, releasing thunder and lightning so intense that it caused the Flying Immortal Sect’s protective formation to shake violently.

“Aunt, don’t be hasty. They’re being overly cautious. If we attack now, we may not necessarily harm them,” Sect Master Shangguan Xue’s voice resonated from within the Flying Immortal Sect.

Beside her was her aunt, holding the array disk that Li Su had provided, allowing her to control the sect’s protective formation. The key feature of this protective formation was an additional layer of defenses outside the outer array, interconnected with the natural wind and water formations of Mangkang Mountain. When the Sect Master’s aunt activated the outer layer of the formation, the enemy’s attack would trigger a counterattack from the entire natural wind and water formation and the fragments of immortal treasures.

However, the issue was that the two Refinement Void cultivators were extremely cautious. When they discovered the presence of the Flying Immortal Sect on Mangkang Mountain, they didn’t immediately approach. Instead, they used a tremendously powerful magical artifact to launch their attacks from a distance. This meant that even if the natural wind and water formation retaliated, it wouldn’t pose a significant threat to these two Refinement Void experts.

Fortunately, Li Su had significantly improved the protective formation of the Flying Immortal Sect, making it incredibly sturdy. Despite the immense power of the magical artifact, it wouldn’t be able to breach the sect’s protective formation in a short time. This protective formation harnessed the power of Mangkang Mountain and had much lower energy consumption than other large formations. It could endure for a substantial period.

The Sect Master’s aunt remained watchful. Over the years, she gained some understanding of formations due to her role in managing the array disk.

“We should be able to hold out until Li Su returns. But can Li Su deal with those two Refinement Voids?” The Sect Master’s aunt was growing concerned. She had long regarded Li Su as one of her own. The image of Li Su’s face appeared in the Sect Master’s mind. She had been in seclusion for over fifty years this time, and for ordinary people, fifty years was long enough to forget even the faces of their loved ones. However, Li Su’s appearance remained vivid in the Sect Master’s mind. Over fifty years, her strength had advanced to the mid-stage of Nascent Soul cultivation. After establishing an Immortal Foundation and with the aid of what Li Su had prepared for her, her progress was exceptionally rapid.

“Aunt, he’ll surely be able to handle it,” the Sect Master said. Li Su’s strength seemed to increase every few years, and with over fifty years having passed, it was anyone’s guess how powerful he had become.

“Boom!”

“Boom! Boom!”

Outside, the immensely powerful magical artifact continued its relentless assault.

“Elder Jing, this protective formation can likely hold out for quite some time. Dongfang Xue has already built an Immortal Foundation, and her disciple Li Su is being courted by various sects in the Canglan Realm. If we let this drag on, the Refinement Voids from the Canglan Realm might intervene.” At this moment, a voice echoed from a distance. The owner of this voice was a man who appeared to be in his thirties. He was accompanied by another man who appeared to be in his fifties. Judging by their words, they had some knowledge of the situation in the Northern Region.
