Li Su had significantly increased the area of this peach orchard. With her stunning appearance, Tao Yao stood out amidst the vibrant blossoms.
Li Su approached her side and silently observed her. After about ten minutes, Tao Yao sensed Li Su’s presence and turned her head.
Upon seeing Li Su, the indifference in her eyes gradually faded, and she gently rested her head on Li Su’s chest. The two stayed silent, leaning on each other for quite some time, from the afternoon until the moon rose.
Li Su noticed that Tao Yao had fallen asleep. So, he picked her up, arranged a bed and a light canopy, and held her as they slept.
“Good morning, Tao Yao,” Li Su greeted her the next morning. Upon waking up, Tao Yao saw Li Su’s face, and her mood improved.
“Good morning, husband,” Tao Yao spoke softly. Li Su embraced her, inhaling her pleasant fragrance. “Tao Yao, have you integrated more memories again?”
Tao Yao nodded, “Yes, but, husband, I am still your Tao Yao.” This statement made Li Su feel overwhelmed by emotions, and he indulged in the moment.
The next morning also became romantic. A month later, contentedly nestled in Li Su’s arms, Tao Yao talked about their plans.
Li Su responded with an “Hmm.” “Tao Yao, will you enter the ascension stage after passing through the Five Decays of Heaven and Man?”
Tao Yao nodded, “Yes, the ascension stage is the pinnacle of the ‘mortal’ realm. There’s no further advancement possible. To progress beyond that, one can only ascend to become an immortal.”
Li Su asked, “Is there something like Heavenly Tribulation in the ascension stage?” Tao Yao explained, “In theory, no, but practically speaking, yes. Because ascension cultivators can’t stay in the mortal realm for too long, after achieving the ascension stage, they will face continuous tribulations if they remain in the mortal realm for over ten thousand years. That’s why ascension cultivators often reside in the spiritual realm, preparing for ascension.”
Li Su responded with an “Oh,” starting to grasp the concept. Li Su learned from Lord Feng Tian that the leaders of various sacred places were generally in the ascension stage. However, most of these leaders spent most of their time in the spiritual realm.
Compared to the failed ascension of the wandering immortals, ascension cultivators had an advantage. When the passage to the spiritual realm opened, they could freely travel back and forth without paying any price.
Ten thousand years… It was quite a lengthy period for Li Su. Now, his concerns had vanished.
Li Su was worried that if he had to go to the spiritual realm after reaching the ascension stage, the current state of the Li family wouldn’t be sustainable without him. After all, he promised to protect Tao Yao’s Dao path.
And there was Li Xue and his other women. Li Su put his mind at ease, gazing at the charming Tao Yao, engaging with her again.
Ten days later, Li Su left Tao Yao’s cave, she was about to enter seclusion again. Tao Yao’s desire to return to the immortal realm was extremely strong.
Seeing Tao Yao grew so quickly, Li Su felt quite gratified. He was also happy for her. In his joy, Li Su then went to Su Xiaoxiao’s cave, intending to have some fun with her.
After numerous successful times of having fun, Li Su hurriedly left the northern territory. Because the East Sea was stirring again!
The defensive array he left between the South and East Sea had been activated.
At the same time, Li Su received news from Ruowei that the East Sea Clan was launching a massive attack. This time, the scale of the East Sea’s forces was larger, seemingly coming out in full force. Judging from this momentum, they likely planned to conquer the South Sea first, then the West Sea, and finally sweep through the North Sea, bringing all four seas under their control.
Capturing the Four Seas of Canglan would allow the East Sea to accelerate its development. After a few more years of development, they might even carry out their plan to flood the Canglan Realm, turning it into a complete water world.
“Dear husband~”
When Li Su arrived in the South Sea, the East Sea’s massive army had already penetrated deep into the South Sea and was heading towards the capital city of the South Sea.
This time, Ruowei didn’t retreat. She had already achieved Fusion. Over the years, with the support of the system and resources from Li Su, she had reached the third level of Fusion.
Her strength was considerable. Queen Long Kui of the West Sea was also rushing over. By then, they would have two major Fusion beings.
With Li Su present, even if the East Sea’s Azure Dragon King had already passed through the First Decay of Heaven and Man, they had no worries whatsoever.
“Ruowei, no need to worry.”
Ruowei nodded.
Before long, Long Kui arrived first. Others from the West Sea were still behind. When Ruowei moved, two seventh-stage Azure Dragons noticed the change in her strength.
Although Ruowei and Long Kui reached the seventh stage later than them, their strength and combat prowess surpassed theirs. These two seventh-stage Azure Dragons were immediately thrown into confusion.
Especially one of the seventh-stage Azure Dragons, at the first level of the seventh stage, was severely beaten by Ruowei.
While dealing with him, Ruowei still had the energy to handle the Azure Dragon Clan’s large army of sea beasts, resulting in heavy casualties among the Azure Dragon Clan’s forces.
Watching Ruowei and Long Kui so fierce, the hidden Azure Dragon King could no longer hold back.
He transformed into a tremendously ferocious Azure Dragon, suddenly rushing out and heading towards Ruowei. Li Su didn’t guess wrong, this fellow indeed crossed a tribulation, thus daring to attack again.
Li Su’s figure flickered, appearing in front of him. The Hexagonal Mirror flashed, launching an attack towards the Azure Dragon King.
Upon seeing Li Su, the Azure Dragon King was utterly fearless, not dodging, charging straight ahead.
After crossing the tribulation, it had absolute confidence in its own strength.
Then, this confidence turned into a mournful cry.
Li Su’s attack fiercely landed on its body. Shortly after Long Kui’s arrival, a dense array of sea beasts appeared outside the South Sea’s royal city.
The Azure Dragon King, refusing to accept defeat, swiftly vanished, attempting to appear beside Li Su to deliver a fatal blow.
But as it appeared, Li Su’s Hexagram Mirror again shone brightly.
The Azure Dragon King once again suffered a direct hit. This fellow was suddenly dumbfounded—Li Su accurately pinpointed its exact location.
Moreover, despite its full effort, this strike couldn’t be stopped at all. It was again sent flying backward, creating an incredibly massive crater even on the immensely sturdy seabed.
