Chapter 450: 209: Ling Lingshuang's Shock and Despair! The Naturally Gifted Ancestor Han!_3

Having become his Dao partner, she no longer had a chance to dominate the Penglai Immortal Sect. Without the cultivation resources of the Penglai Immortal Sect, even reaching the Tongxuan Realm would be difficult, let alone attacking the Heaven Imperial Realm.

“Do you think that’s possible?” Han Li said with a smile that was not quite a smile.

The peerless beauties who fell into his hands had all become his wives and concubines; Han Li had never entertained the idea of releasing them.

Otherwise, wouldn’t kidnapping Ling Lingshuang have been a thankless task for him?

Ling Lingshuang pursed her lips and sighed silently.

Indeed, Han Li would never let her go.

In front of her, Han Li revealed many secrets, not concealing anything, clearly having no intention of letting her go.

After a long silence, Ling Lingshuang spoke again, “I am of prime aptitude, the future successor of the Penglai Immortal Sect. Your act of kidnapping me will not be settled easily by my master. When the time comes, you will have endless trouble.”

“Is prime aptitude that great? We have a lot of it in Chengsheng Mountain,” said Han Li indifferently.

Ling Lingshuang scoffed, with an expression that read ‘you think I believe that.’

Prime aptitude individuals were few and far between in Qianyuan Divine Province, not exceeding twenty, and maybe not even ten. Yet, Han Li claimed he had many in Chengsheng Mountain.

What a joke!?

Great talents with prime aptitude weren’t cabbages.

Han Li couldn’t be bothered to explain and continued, “As for the trouble you mentioned? You don’t think I care about that, do you?”

Han Li laughed, a laugh unrestrained and uninhibited.

Ling Lingshuang was startled, her expression gradually turning ugly. The identity and backing she relied upon was utterly useless in Han Li’s eyes.

This was a heavy blow to Ling Lingshuang.

She had never experienced such a situation before. As the Fairy Lingshuang of the Penglai Immortal Sect, her status was noble, admired by countless beings. She was always held in high esteem wherever she went, but to Han Li, she was worthless.

“Let me tell you the truth, I kidnapped you because your master, the old Guanhai Daoist, offended me.”

“The old Guanhai Daoist dared to trick me, so I’ll take you as a Dao partner first, to recoup some interest,” Han Li said lightly.

Ling Lingshuang was shocked, her eyes filled with uncertainty. Had her master met with Han Li and offended him?

Ling Lingshuang thought it was very likely; otherwise, why would Han Li dare to commit such an outrage against the world, brazenly kidnapping her under the watchful eyes of Sacred Land Masters?

“You first captured Xue Yueqing, then killed the Joyful Arhat, and now you’ve kidnapped me, offending three Great Holy Land Schools at once. Do you really think you can escape the law?”

After calming herself, Ling Lingshuang opened her mouth to speak.

Each Great Holy Land School had a Sacred Soldier to stabilize their destiny, their greatest trump card, and one that could be revived. Even Quasi Emperors, the Saints from other Divine Provinces, wouldn’t dare to act recklessly in Qianyuan Divine Province.

There were only seven Great Holy Land Schools in Qianyuan Divine Province in total, and Han Li, in one go, had offended Myriad Demon Mountain, Xumi Mountain, and the Penglai Immortal Sect, and Penglai Immortal Sect had intricate connections with Bai Yujing.

Whether it was because of the Penglai Immortal Sect or as the foremost Sacred Land of Qianyuan Divine Province, Bai Yujing would have a hand in it. After all, a mysterious Tongxuan Realm power with an emperor’s soldier was already threatening to the Sacred Land.

“So what?” said Han Li indifferently.

Han Li reached out and forcefully pulled Ling Lingshuang into his embrace, leaned in beside her delicate jade neck, and spoke softly,

“You don’t think the Penglai Immortal Sect would use their Sacred Soldier for you, do you? How many more times can your sect’s Sacred Soldier even be revived? No more than three times at most.”

“Furthermore, the heritage of my Chengsheng Mountain is not as superficial as you imagine.”

As he spoke, Han Li gently waved his hand, revealing the normally hidden aura of Chengsheng Mountain before Ling Lingshuang’s eyes.

Gazing at the heritage revealed by Chengsheng Mountain, Ling Lingshuang forgot to struggle, her expression shock, she murmured to herself, “How is this possible?”

The depth of Chengsheng Mountain’s heritage surpassed her imagination by far.

What she saw alone included nine Emperor Weapons, among which at least five were Heaven Imperial Realm level Emperor Weapons.

Ling Lingshuang also saw a sacred might emanating from the distant peak. It was not the might of Sacred Soldiers, but the might of a Saint from the Sacred Abyss Realm.

It should be known that not even the greatest Sacred Lands of Qianyuan Divine Province, including the foremost Bai Yujing, possessed a Saint of the Sacred Abyss Realm, yet Han Li’s Chengsheng Mountain did.

Apart from lacking Immortal Soldiers, the heritage of Chengsheng Mountain had already surpassed that of most Great Holy Land Schools, and even Bai Yujing might not necessarily match it.

And this was only what Han Li allowed her to see; she did not know whether Chengsheng Mountain had any hidden Immortal Soldiers.

If there were Immortal Soldiers, then even if Chengsheng Mountain could not become the foremost Sacred Land of Qianyuan Divine Province in a single leap, it could certainly rival Bai Yujing.

“Sigh~”

Ling Lingshuang let out a soft sigh, wondering how her master had managed to offend Han Li. It was like drawing disaster upon the Penglai Immortal Sect.

Straightaway, Ling Lingshuang closed her eyes, not wanting Han Li to see her despair.

Just as Han Li had said, Penglai Immortal Sect would not employ Immortal Soldiers for her, even though she was the future successor of Penglai Immortal Sect and even though they knew that using Immortal Soldiers could potentially trace her whereabouts.

After all, the heritage of Penglai Immortal Sect was insufficient, and the stored Spirit Source was very scarce; the Immortal Soldier that suppressed the sect’s fate could only fully revive at most two more times.

Even if one counted the Immortal Soldier’s autonomous full revival, it could only fully fight thrice at most—far too few.

This was fundamental in maintaining the status of Penglai Immortal Sect, and they would not employ it for her sake.

Without her, Penglai Immortal Sect would still cultivate other peerless geniuses as successors. Though her several senior brothers were somewhat inferior to her, with vigorous training, they also had the hope of reaching the Tongxuan Realm, not to mention the outstanding younger generations below them.

But once the revival count of the Immortal Soldiers was exhausted, the Immortal Soldier would become a mere decoration, unable to be stimulated, unable to be revived, and thus it would pose no threat. The status of Penglai Immortal Sect would plummet, and all their schemes would be affected.

“Ling Lingshuang, think carefully, and tell me your answer in three days,” said Han Li softly.

Feeling the warm breath on her ears, Ling Lingshuang’s delicate body trembled, and she said coldly, “What if I refuse?”

“I will still take you as my Dao companion. I told you, you have no choice,” he replied.

He paused, then added, “However, that will greatly reduce your status in my eyes, and many of the privileges you could have enjoyed will be gone.”

Ling Lingshuang’s pupils narrowed. She was silent, not knowing what to think.

Han Li released her, choosing not to defile her at this moment. His figure vanished from the summit of Chengdao Peak, leaving only Ling Lingshuang behind.

The next moment, Han Li arrived at the sleeping chamber of Xue Yueqing and informed her of his intentions.

“Qing’er, I have returned, and I have captured Ling Lingshuang as well—go and persuade her on my behalf,” he said.

Upon hearing this, Xue Yueqing breathed a sigh of relief, glad that her lord had returned safely. Then she shot Han Li a glare and her figure appeared atop Chengdao Peak.

PS: I’m not in good shape, didn’t write much, my body is getting worse day by day. It seems I really need to discipline myself and exercise.
