Earth, Jiangnan Base City.
Jiang Li divided the elf subhumans he'd bought into four groups.He handed control of the four female elf subhumans to Ling Ling, while Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen each arranged four of the remaining twelve.
As for the last four elf subhumans who were Star-level Ninth Rank, Jiang Li directly donated them to the nation without asking for anything in return.
Because of this,
Jia Yi didn't even know how to reward him, and could only call the next day to thank him again and again.
"How about this—give me a plot of land next to Jiangnan Base City as the nation's reward. Would that work?"
In the end,
Jiang Li really had no other choice.He had to accept land in exchange, just to make the Hanxia high-ups feel at ease.
Very soon,
the land was assigned.Ling Ling immediately became excited, wanting to plan and build a brand-new home herself.
To this,
Jiang Li naturally supported her fully.
Day after day passed, and soon it was nearly the Spring Festival.
Whenever he had spare time, Jiang Li would hop into the chat group and send a few messages.
Of course, he spent most of his time with Ling Ling.
Aside from doing certain indescribable things…
he was guiding her cultivation.
On this day—
after finishing the tasks at hand, Jiang Li entered the chat group.
Chat Group.
A Xing: "Hahaha! I got it! Jiang Li-dage was right, I really AM a once-in-ten-thousand martial arts genius! I'm already Xiantian!"
Wudang Hundred-Year Old Daoist: "What the—? You reached Xiantian already?!"
Zixia Junzijian: "Terrifying. It hasn't even been a single day, right?"
Chen Beixuan: "A once-in-ten-thousand martial arts genius is really this outrageous?"
Yan Shisan: "Jiang Li-dage wasn't wrong. This guy really is suited for martial arts. One day into Xiantian—are you still human, damn it?"
A Xing: "I'm the man who's going to save the world! How can I save it without strong cultivation?"
A Xing @Tunshi Zhi Zhu: "Jiang Li-dage, where are the experts in my world? I'll go challenge a few!"
Jiang Li didn't expect this guy to start thinking about challenging masters right after entering cultivation.
But his potential really was frightening.
In less than a day, he cultivated into the Xiantian realm.
One must know—when Yue Buqun entered the chat group, he had cultivated for decades and still hadn't reached this level!
Jiang Li @A Xing: "In Pig Cage City there's a group of reclusive masters who hate Jianghu slaughter."
Tunshi Zhi Zhu: "You can go spar with them. Whether they'll bother with you though—I don't know."
Tunshi Zhi Zhu: "But that place used to have the top experts of your world. You're only Xiantian right now. If you go, you might get hammered!"
A Xing: "…"
Xiao Li Feidao @Tunshi Zhi Zhu: "Jiang Li-dage, tomorrow is my wedding. Do you have time to attend?!"
Xiao Li Feidao: "I really hope Jiang Li-dage can come! Everyone else is welcome too!"
Yan Shisan: "I want to go, but I can't even take out the points for travel…"
Zixia Junzijian: "I'll just congratulate you here—happy wedding!"
Jiang Li's eyes lit up.
Taking a walk through the Xiao Li Feidao world wasn't a bad idea.
And he happened to be free.
Tunshi Zhi Zhu: "No need to wait till tomorrow—let's go now!"
Once the interest rose, Jiang Li didn't want to delay. He immediately had Xiao Li Feidao send the invitation, and several members descended into the Little Li Flying Dagger world.
Yao Yue and Huang Rong were both online as well.
As the chat group manifested as a massive vortex, Jiang Li's vision blurred.
When it cleared, he was already facing the Xiao Li Feidao he'd met once before.
"Haha! Truly, joy brightens the spirit. Li Tanhua, you look even more energetic than before!"
Jiang Li laughed heartily.
He then looked toward the woman beside him—Lin Shiyin.
Truly a beauty blessed by the heavens.
No wonder that Long Xiaoyun fellow, who originally only wanted revenge against Xiao Li Feidao, eventually fell in love with Lin Shiyin for real.
There was a fragile, tender quality about her that stirred one's protective instincts.
At this moment, Lin Shiyin was staring at Jiang Li and the others with a shocked-yet-not-shocked expression.
Obviously, Xiao Li Feidao—oh no, Fei Yangyang… had already told her about the chat group!
"I greet Jiang Li-dage, Miss Huang Rong, Palace Master Yaoyue." Xiao Li Feidao smiled broadly, bringing Lin Shiyin forward to bow.
"I am Lin Shiyin. Greetings to all of you, and welcome to attend my wedding with Cousin!"
Lin Shiyin followed up, her voice crisp and pleasant.
She glanced—astonished—at Huang Rong and Yaoyue.Clearly she didn't expect women even more beautiful than herself to exist in this world.
"So this is your cousin-sister Lin Shiyin? She's too beautiful. I really don't know what you were thinking before, to have done such a thing."
Huang Rong and Yaoyue also marveled at Lin Shiyin's beauty.
No wonder Li Xunhuan kept saying in the chat group that he couldn't live without his cousin—just like the chat group couldn't exist without Jiang Li.
Honestly speaking, before they started cultivating immortality, neither of them dared claim they were more beautiful than Lin Shiyin.
Even more incredible was that frail, tender aura of hers—simply poison to men.
They knew all too well:
Jianghu men who spent their days killing and fighting loved this kind of soft, gentle woman the most—it stirred their desire to protect.
"Ahem… Miss Huang Rong, let's not bring up the past."
A flash of embarrassment crossed Li Xunhuan's face.
Regarding Long Xiaoyun, he definitely wasn't stupid enough to tell Lin Shiyin the truth.
After killing Long Xiaoyun, he only said the massacre at Modao Sect was his doing, and withheld everything that came after.
"Jiang Li-dage, Miss Huang Rong, please come in. I'll go order people to prepare wine and food, and tidy rooms for you!"
At this moment, Li Garden was brightly lit.
Li family servants were still decorating for the wedding.
Jiang Li's early arrival clearly caught Li Xunhuan off guard.
He hadn't prepared food, and the guest rooms weren't even ready.
"No need!"
"You're busy with the wedding tomorrow. There's still much for you to handle—we won't trouble you."
Jiang Li laughed.
With a sweep of his sleeve, he wrapped Huang Rong and Yaoyue in his qi and flew off into the sky.
The next day, the three returned to Li Garden right on time.
Li Garden was packed with guests.
As the third-ranked figure on the Weapon Rankings, Li Xunhuan's wedding had already shaken the Jianghu.
And since he wasn't holding a low-key ceremony but inviting everyone with no restrictions…
By the time Jiang Li and the others arrived, it was truly a sea of people.
The line of gift-givers stretched dozens of meters.
One must remember—the Li family wasn't just famous in the Jianghu, they were also influential in officialdom!
"So beautiful!"
"No—those are immortals!"
Jiang Li had originally planned to keep a low profile, bringing Huang Rong and Yaoyue to line up like ordinary guests.
But because the two didn't hide their appearances, they caused an uproar the moment they appeared.
This naturally alerted Li Xunhuan, who was greeting guests not far away.
He jogged over in a hurry.
"Jiang Li-dage, how could I let you line up!"
"You are my most important guest today—you must sit at the main table!"
Li Xunhuan's words stunned many Jianghu figures.
With Li Xunhuan's status, even if Tianji Laoren arrived, he wouldn't need to act so humble.
What shocked them even more was that Li Xunhuan immediately stopped receiving guests and respectfully led Jiang Li's group into Li Garden.
"It's my first time attending a group member's wedding—here's a small gift, nothing much, just a token."
Inside Li Garden, Jiang Li took out the gift he'd long prepared.
