Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch s Marriage

Chapter 580: Chapter 230: Han Laozu Gets Married Again! The Blissful Ji Mingyue! Treasure Chest Explosion, the Second Immortal Weapon Obtained!_2

Yuan Youwei felt somewhat self-satisfied in her heart, believing that as long as she aligned herself with Ji Mingyue, based on Han Li’s conduct over the past half month, he would not easily harm either of them. This alliance would allow them to maintain their Primordial Yin Bodies. Had it been only her, she would have been isolated and vulnerable, which felt much less secure.

Unfortunately, Yuan Youwei was mistaken. She didn’t understand Han Li at all. Most of his behavior during these days was a facade, and her actions would only exhaust his last bit of patience, ultimately backfiring on her.

But Yuan Youwei didn’t know this.

Every word spoken by Yuan Youwei struck Ji Mingyue’s cultivator’s heart like a heavy hammer, her complexion turning deathly pale and leaving her even more at a loss.

Looking at Yuan Youwei’s cold and peerless departing figure, Ji Mingyue’s delicate lips were tightly pursed, silent, waging an internal battle within her heart.

Taking a deep breath, Ji Mingyue spoke up again, her voice heavy as she asked, “Yuan Youwei, what if Han Li is not as you expect?”

“By acting this way, you will definitely anger Han Li. When that happens, there will be no good outcome, can you really last until the incident at Chengsheng Mountain?”

It was clear to Ji Mingyue what Yuan Youwei was thinking, but she dared not agree with it. Yuan Youwei’s approach was much too risky.

Yuan Youwei seemed to have forgotten that Han Li was a man of tremendous daring, who even dared to defile the split souls of the two peerless Empresses of Empress Yuanchu and the Huangyue Imperial Empire. How could the two of them escape the Devil’s Palm of Han Li?

Ji Mingyue didn’t believe Han Li was a gentleman; his behavior these days was just an act.

If Han Li were to force himself on them, they would still be compelled to lose their chastity to Han Li, falling into his hands, still wishing to maintain their virtue as if they were dreaming.

And based on the information that had subtly transpired from Han Li over the past half month, the outcomes of submitting willingly and being forced were not the same.

If they were to marry Han Li willingly, with their status, cultivation, and beauty, they would become Han Li’s Cultivation companions, holding a very high status on Chengsheng Mountain; whereas if they were forced, whether they could become Cultivation companions was another matter.

The term “Cultivation companions” represented their status on Chengsheng Mountain, signifying the cultivation resources they acquired and the privileges and benefits they enjoyed.

The reason Ji Mingyue was wavering, no longer holding to her own views, was because she saw this clearly. After all, she was merely at the middle stage of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, and in terms of combat ability, Han Li was not much weaker than her; becoming Han Li’s Cultivation companion wouldn’t be disgraceful.

Otherwise, if she was forced to lose her chastity, their situation would be quite miserable. By the time White Emperor City, Yuanchu Mountain, and the Huangyue Imperial Empire came to the rescue, they would have lost everything.

Not only would they have already lost their chastity, but under those circumstances, they would likely be stripped of their cultivation or even killed outright. Even if Chengsheng Mountain was destroyed, it would be of no use to Ji Mingyue—not worthwhile at all.

“Would he dare?” Yuan Youwei said faintly, seemingly very confident.

She was a Quasi Emperor, the future Empress of the Heaven Imperial Realm. The idea of being forced to marry a mere Cultivator of the Tongxuan Realm was an insult to her. Yuan Youwei’s pride would not allow that.

If Han Li had only her as his Cultivation companion, or just Zimei Zhen, Ji Mingyue, and the three of them, Yuan Youwei could reluctantly agree. But Han Li’s wives and concubines were too numerous; she couldn’t accept that.

Yuan Youwei was convinced Han Li wouldn’t dare kill her, otherwise the truth about Chengsheng Mountain would be revealed in an instant, and Han Li was far from being a match for Empress Yuanchu.

If she were to employ some strategies, she was also confident that she could make Han Li neither dare nor force her, thus preventing forced loss of chastity.

Ji Mingyue opened her mouth as if she wanted to say that Han Li might really dare, but ultimately she remained silent.

Yuan Youwei’s situation was different from hers; what Ji Mingyue was willing to do, Yuan Youwei might not be.

“Ji Mingyue, you should think carefully again and not do anything foolish,” Yuan Youwei said.

Yuan Youwei turned around, looked at the conflicted and hesitating Ji Mingyue, and, stretching out her jade hand, caressed her stunning face before leaving.

Watching Yuan Youwei depart in silence, Ji Mingyue glanced at the surging sea of clouds and left as well, returning to her own chambers. She wanted to be alone with her thoughts.

At Chengdao Peak, inside Qiandao Hall.

Han Li was discussing cultivation and the great paths of life with Zimei Zhen. Flowers rained down chaotically, golden lotuses sprung up from the ground, and melodious sounds of immortality filled the air continuously.

Han Li also diverted a portion of his concentration to control his Divine Sense, monitoring the Cloud View Terrace. He heard every word of the conversation between Ji Mingyue and Yuan Youwei, clearly, but he made no judgments, deciding to deal with it later.

Withdrawing his Divine Sense, Han Li focused entirely on exchanging cultivation insights with his sweet and lovely wife, Zimei Zhen.

Sometime later, the eyes of Zimei Zhen became hazy, and beneath her dancing purple hair was an alluring and passionate visage that was absolutely beautiful.

…..

The next day, Han Li came alone to the Cloud View Terrace, and Ji Mingyue and Yuan Youwei arrived on time as well.

Han Li’s hands rested on the railing as he gazed into the distance at the rising sun. As the first ray of sunlight broke through the night, a trace of the morning’s purple dawn qi was inhaled by Han Li.

Only then did Han Li turn around to assess Ji Mingyue and Yuan Youwei.

Ji Mingyue had removed her veil, revealing her stunning visage before Han Li, apparently indicating her disposition.

Yuan Youwei, still wearing her veil, remained cold and distant, her face set like she was being owed ten Heavenly Immortal Weapons by Han Li. Her arms were crossed, and she tried to exhibit a posture of looking down upon Han Li.

“Ji Mingyue, Yuan Youwei, have the two of you come to a decision?” Han Li said with a hint of a smile.

Yuan Youwei glanced at Ji Mingyue, shaking her head slightly, but Ji Mingyue ignored Yuan Youwei’s hint and calmly said, “I can become your Cultivation companion.”

“Whatever you give Zimei Zhen, you must give me the same. You shall not wrong me in the slightest.”
