Chapter 37 - Win or Lose, I''ll Marry Junior Sister

    Chapter 37: Win or Lose, I’ll Marry Junior Sister

    After the Sect Leader spoke, her gaze remained fixed on Li Su. Her gaze didn’t exert much pressure. She gave Li Su the right to choose.

    On the side, Su Yun blushed, too embarrassed to even look at Li Su.

    Li Su’s heart was also pounding.

    The Sect Leader didn’t seem to consult with her, but she had already noticed Su Yun’s growing affection for Li Su. Moreover, the Sect Leader had raised her since childhood, and the Sect Leader was like her parents. If Li Su agreed, it would be settled.

    At this moment, Su Yun was both shy and nervous, but she wanted to hear Li Su’s answer.

    Li Su hadn’t responded yet.

    Su Yun, the beautiful and well-behaved junior sister, was hard not to like. Even without any special factors, Li Su would still be willing to marry her.

    Besides, she was a fifth-grade spiritual root. If they had children together, their offspring would have good spiritual roots. And the better the spiritual roots, the greater the benefit for Li Su. Having descendants with powerful spiritual roots would boost Li Su’s own spiritual roots. Still, they were only pursuing quantity. With 50 descendants having spiritual roots, Li Su’s spiritual roots still couldn’t reach the eighth grade.

    Raising one’s spiritual roots was exceptionally difficult. In the regions of the Three Great Immortal Gates, there were no medicines or herbs to enhance spiritual roots. Perhaps true immortals had some means, but the improvement would be limited. Of course, the main reason was that these 50 descendants had extremely poor spiritual roots. The strongest two were only in the eighth grade, and many descendants had no spiritual roots.

    However, no matter how willing and how many benefits there were, agreeing to the Sect Leader’s proposal meant accepting her arrangement. It seemed that the Sect Leader hoped Li Su would return to the Flying Immortal Sect to focus on cultivation, allowing him to better break through the Golden Core stage.Diiscover new stories at novelhall.com

    Only those with Heavenly Spiritual Roots had no bottleneck during Foundation Establishment. The worse the spiritual root, the more formidable the bottleneck during alchemy.

    Although Li Su had quickly completed the Foundation Establishment, the Sect Leader was even more concerned about him. Therefore she made this suggestion.

    If Li Su cultivated like a regular cultivator, it would be pointless. However, directly rejecting the Sect Leader had implications. Firstly, she genuinely had good intentions, and secondly, it might hurt Su Yun’s feelings.

    So, after pondering for over a minute, Li Su finally spoke.

    Su Yun couldn’t help but raise her head and gaze at Li Su.

    The leader raised an eyebrow, her eyes revealing a hint of interest.

    “How do you suggest we bet?” she asked.

    Li Su stated in one breath, “If I win, I will marry Junior Sister Su Yun. However, I request that you allow me to cultivate it in my own way. As for Junior Sister Su Yun, I will not force her to stay by my side; she can continue her cultivation in the Flying Immortal Sect.”

    “And if I lose, I will marry Junior Sister Su Yun and return to the Flying Immortal Sect to continue my practice.”

    Li Su swiftly revealed the stakes of the bet. Regardless of the outcome, he would marry Su Yun.

    Su Yun was a genius with a fifth-grade spiritual root, and even if she entered into marriage, Li Su had no intention of keeping her in the Li residence. That would be unfavorable for her. It would be best if she continued her cultivation in the Flying Immortal Sect.

    Unlike the other female cultivators in Li Su’s entourage, Su Yun had complete confidence in breaking through the golden core stage. She could accompany Li Su for a long time. Therefore, Li Su had no intention of holding her back.

    However, Li Su would seek her opinion and perhaps ask her to bear his child or something. It wouldn’t cause any problems.

    Su Yun’s face instantly flushed red.

    But deep down, she felt joyous. It seemed that Senior Brother Li liked her. Regardless of the outcome, he insisted on marrying her!

    The leader’s gaze swept across Su Yun’s face.

    Whether he won or lost, he had to marry his junior sister...

    Li Su’s bet... seemed to amuse her.

    “Very well, I’ll bet with you!” she exclaimed.
