Chapter 212: Marriage
Southern Xinjiang.
In the dense forest, Li Yu put away the magic snail and re-entered the secret realm.
When his master sent a message, he wanted to ask what the urgent matter was, but he didn't elaborate. He just asked him to take Senior Sister Qin back immediately, and Grandmaster Xuan Zhen was already waiting outside to pick them up.
After the last ambush and the assassination in the secret realm, no matter where they go, there is always at least one powerful person in the late Nascent Soul stage accompanying them.
Patriarch Xuanzhen's strength is among the best among all the late Nascent Soul cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation.
Unless a Divine Transformation Master comes in person, or there are two or more Nascent Soul masters in the late stage, Patriarch Xuanzhen can guarantee their safety.
The master was mysterious and unwilling to say more, so Li Yu had to go back and ask again.
After a moment.
On the spiritual boat flying from southern Xinjiang to Kunlun.
Inside the spirit boat cabin, Li Yu and Qin Keren sat opposite each other at the two ends of a table. The atmosphere was exceptionally quiet.
In the past, although Senior Sister Qin didn't talk much, Li Yu could still find some topics about cultivation. But today, Li Yu tried countless times in his mind and didn't know how to break the silence.
"Senior sister."
After an unknown amount of time, Li Yu finally spoke.
Qin Keren looked at him.
Li Yu looked at her and said, "When we were in the secret realm... I'm sorry."
Qin Keren's eyes moved, and after a moment of silence, she said, "In the secret realm, you saved me. There is nothing to apologize for."
Li Yu wanted to say something else, but Qin Keren closed her eyes.
She didn't intend to continue listening, and in the end, Li Yu couldn't say what he wanted to say.
Li Yu sighed in his heart.
She really still cares .
I care as much as the witch.
However, given her personality, it was impossible for her to say it like a witch.
No conversation along the way.
One day later, Kunlun Cave Heaven.
Yuxu Palace.
Li Yu bowed slightly to a figure and said, "Meet the Master."
"No need to be polite." Wang Daoxuan waved his hand, looked at Qin Keren first, and asked, "How is Keren's injury?"
Qin Keren said: "It's healed."
Wang Daoxuan asked again: "Has your practice been going well recently?"
Qin Keren nodded slightly.
Wang Daoxuan asked Li Yu a few more questions. After Li Yu answered, he spoke again: "Master called me and my sister back this time. What's the important matter?"
Wang Daoxuan did not answer the question directly, but asked: "You should know that for a cultivator to go from the Golden Core to the Nascent Soul stage, not only must his magic power be sufficient, but his state of mind must also not fall behind, right?"
Li Yu said: "Master, I understand."
Wang Daoxuan looked at the two of them, stroked his short beard, and said, "With your talent and magic power, I don't have to worry. Even without external aid, you will definitely reach the peak of the Golden Core within a few decades. However, the state of mind has nothing to do with the talent for cultivation, and it is difficult to improve in the sect. If you continue like this, your cultivation will remain at the peak of the Golden Core for at least a hundred years."
Li Yu felt relieved that his master finally started to care about his practice.
At this time, Wang Daoxuan continued, "Although it is difficult to improve one's state of mind, there are shortcuts. Yesterday, I personally went to Mount Emei..."
Li Yu raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, "Emei is willing to let us use the Mountain and River Map?"
Wang Daoxuan looked at him and asked in surprise, "You actually know that the Mountain and River Map can improve one's state of mind?"
Li Yu said: "I heard about it by chance..."
Wang Daoxuan did not ask in detail, but nodded and said, "Yes, in the Mountain and River Map, the world can evolve on its own. Although everything is illusory, it is still very useful for improving your state of mind. If you can enter the Mountain and River Map, you don't have to worry about the state of mind when you form an infant..."
He patted Li Yu on the shoulder and said, "I am not worried about your state of mind, but dear, if you miss this opportunity, I don't know when the next time the Emei Patriarch will return to the sect will be..."
Li Yu's heart moved. It turned out that the Emei's ancestor Poxu had returned to the sect. No wonder the master was so anxious to call them back. It was related to the formation of the infant, which was indeed crucial to him and Senior Sister Qin.
At this time, Wang Daoxuan suddenly looked at Li Yu, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Li Yu noticed his abnormality and said, "Master, if you have anything to say, just say it..."
Wang Daoxuan looked at him and said, "The Mountain and River Map is an immortal weapon. The ability to deduce time requires a lot of mana, and there is a limit to the number of times it can be used within a certain period of time. The higher the level of the immortal cultivator, the more they need to improve their state of mind. The Yuanying and Huashen masters of Emei are all vying for the opportunity. Ordinary disciples can't even get a chance, let alone the outer sect disciples..."
Li Yu quickly asked: "Don't they agree?"
Wang Daoxuan shook his head and said, "It's not that I disagree. Emei can let you and Keren practice with the help of the Mountain and River Map, but they want something from us at Kunlun."
Li Yu asked, "What is it?"
Wang Daoxuan looked at him and said, "You."
Li Yu was slightly stunned: "Me?"
Wang Daoxuan nodded and said, "They want you to marry into the Emei clan, become a dual cultivation partner with an Emei disciple, and become an official Emei disciple..."
Then he added, "I've already agreed for you."
Li Yu was stunned and said: "This..."
Wang Daoxuan explained: "You don't have to worry . After you marry into Emei, you will be a disciple of both Kunlun and Emei. At that time, you will still be the young master of Kunlun. When I abdicate, the position of master will also be passed to you..."
Before Li Yu could say anything, Wang Daoxuan looked at Qin Keren and said to him, "Emei said that you must marry into Kunlun's family before they can give Kunlun two places to use the Mountain and River Map. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your sister. You don't want your sister to be so talented that she can't have a baby within a hundred years, right?"
"I don't want such an opportunity." Qin Keren said coldly and left.
Li Yu looked at his cheap master and was also speechless.
For Senior Sister Qin, he sold himself so rashly.
But to be honest, the opportunity to enter the Mountain and River Map is indeed precious.
Although Li Yu had the recipe for the Barrier Breaking Pill, he simply couldn't gather all the ingredients. Moreover, a sixth-grade pill was simply not something he could refine at his current stage.
Wang Daoxuan looked at Li Yu and continued, "In fact, Master did this not entirely for your Senior Sister. With your talent, the Taoist partner that Emei has chosen for you, even if it is not one of the Four Beauties, must be one of the Twelve Beauties. You won't lose out. When you reach the Nascent Soul stage, you will have the opportunity to continue to use the Mountain and River Map to improve your state of mind. How about it, are you tempted?"
Li Yu smiled embarrassedly.
Whether they have a Taoist partner or not is secondary. What he mainly wants is to have a baby as soon as possible.
Wang Daoxuan looked at the back of the hall and said, "However, Keren has a stubborn temper. She may not agree. You have to persuade her..."
Li Yu sighed and said, "I'm afraid I can't persuade Senior Sister..."
Wang Daoxuan noticed something from his expression and asked, "Did you have a fight?"
Li Yu reluctantly told him what happened in the secret realm.
After hearing this, Wang Daoxuan was silent for a long time, but did not blame Li Yu.
His expression was one of deep thought, as if he was reminiscing about something.
After a moment, he patted Li Yu on the shoulder and said earnestly: "I understand your feelings. I am willing to sacrifice my life for her. But she has been so successful over the years. This kind of setback will actually help her practice..."
Although this is the truth, it is also a fact that Senior Sister Qin was hurt.
Li Yu stopped thinking about this for the time being, looked at Wang Daoxuan, and asked, "Master, do I really want to marry into the Emei clan?"
His intuition told him that this matter should be more than just borrowing the map of mountains and rivers.
Wang Daoxuan's expression turned serious, and he said, "This is actually a joint decision made by the sect and Emei. The millennium-long change in the world of immortal cultivation has arrived. The ancestor has not appeared for a hundred years, and his life or death is unknown. I am afraid that Kunlun alone will not be able to cope with the upcoming changes in the situation. Your identity is special, and this marriage is of great significance. When you marry into Emei, the two sects of Kunlun and Emei will also form a comprehensive alliance..."
After saying that, he threw a thick booklet to Li Yu.
Li Yu took it and asked, "What is this?"
Wang Daoxuan glanced at him and said, "Take the list of Emei's geniuses back and take a look at it slowly. If you see any one you like, just let me know..."
