190: Work hard to help Grandma Hua have a grandson as soon as possible!

The relationship between the three of them had not yet been made public, mainly because it was somewhat difficult to do so.

However, the disciples and elders of Yuehua Palace, who had long seen the signs, had already relayed this astonishing news back to Yuehua Palace, letting Granny Hua know.

At first, Granny Hua also sighed deeply upon hearing it; Yuehua Palace does not forbid marriage, but for Yue Xiyan and Yue Qingmeng to be like this…

In Yuehua Palace's nearly thousand-year history, this was, after all, the first time such a thing had occurred.

But since things had come to this, there was no other way.

After much deliberation, Granny Hua decided to be the one to reveal the relationship between the three of them and announce it to the world!

She did this to cut off any retreat and secure a proper status for her juniors.

Yue Xiyan and Yue Qingmeng, master and disciple, instantly felt their faces flush and ears burn, overcome with shyness.

Although the three of them had already discussed it privately, this was the first time it was being publicly revealed!

Then, the two of them looked at Li Shengyuan, wanting to see what he would say.

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise appeared on Li Shengyuan’s face, followed by a calm smile.

He bowed slightly towards Granny Hua and said with a composed smile, “Granny Hua, please rest assured, since Xiyan and Mengmeng are willing to entrust themselves to me, I will naturally not let them down!”

A smile appeared on Granny Hua’s wrinkled face, and with Yue Xiyan’s support, she stepped forward to Li Shengyuan, took his withered hand, and said with a profound smile, “Although I, this old woman, have always been in Yuehua Palace, I already know that you have put in too much effort for Xiyan to break through to the second rank!”

“You have already shown me with your actions that you can treat Xiyan and Mengmeng, as well as the other girls, well…”

After speaking, she glanced at Shen Xinrong and Princess Pingyang, who were beside Wenren Qingxuan.

Then she softly smiled and said, “I hope you all can go further and further, whether in your relationships or in your cultivation; this is the best blessing I, this old woman, can give you!”

“Thank you, Granny Hua, having your blessing is more important than anything,” Li Shengyuan said with a smile, nodding.

With his current strength and insight, he could naturally see that the old woman before him was already in her twilight years.

It wasn't a natural death, but rather severe internal injuries and numerous after-effects, a common occurrence for many cultivators.

In this world, no one can cultivate smoothly until death; one must always fight with heaven, contend with earth, and compete with people!

Granny Hua then smiled and said, “Alright, I won’t say anything else. This old woman only hopes that in her lifetime, she can hold her little grandchildren and see your little babies!”

As soon as she said this, even Li Shengyuan, thick-skinned as he was, blushed.

He really wanted to say, “Granny Hua, I’m still just a twenty-something-year-old kid myself, I don’t want to bring a life into the world so soon…”

But looking at Granny Hua’s wrinkled, incredibly aged face, he still didn't speak.

Every elderly person in their twilight years hopes to witness the birth of new life from their descendants; for them, it is a kind of inheritance, a continuation of life…

Some disciples and elders of Yuehua Palace also secretly wiped away tears; when Yue Xiyan had not yet broken through to the third rank, those were the most difficult days for Yuehua Palace, relying entirely on her, a third-rank expert, to sustain it!

It wasn’t that other disciples were useless, but in a third-rank sect, a top-tier expert often determined everything!

Others could only strive to cultivate and take over Granny Hua’s role; if one generation failed to take over, a top-tier sect would inevitably decline rapidly…

It wasn’t until Yue Xiyan lived up to expectations and successfully broke through to the third rank that Yuehua Palace’s predicament greatly eased.

At this moment, Wenren Qingxuan stepped forward, took Granny Hua’s hand, gave Li Shengyuan and Yue Xiyan’s beautiful companions a glance, and softly said, “Granny Hua, rest assured, I will urge this brat and Xiyan to work harder, and I will definitely let you see your grandson in your lifetime!”

“Good, good, good…” Granny Hua’s aged face was now beaming with joy.

“Everyone, don’t just stand here. Let’s return to the palace, and let this old woman properly entertain everyone. Perhaps there won’t be another chance…”

The people of Yuehua Palace welcomed the hundred or so people from the sky abyss to stay in Yuehua Palace.

Knowing they were coming, at Granny Hua’s instruction, a banquet had already been prepared.

After a day of chatting, laughing, and touring Yuehua Palace, night fell, and the banquet officially began!

At the banquet, the relationship between Li Shengyuan and the two women was formally established!

From then on, he would be Yuehua Palace’s son-in-law!

Li Mu and Wenren Qingxuan, the couple, also presented the modest gifts they had prepared long ago.

Though they were called modest gifts, they were almost equivalent to the assets of Yuehua Palace…

As the current number one family in Great Xia, the Li family was indeed very wealthy!

Moreover, it was for Yue Xiyan and Yue Qingmeng, master and disciple, one of whom was a famous second-rank top-tier expert in the world!

Using assets worth Yuehua Palace as a betrothal gift was not an exaggeration!

Granny Hua had also prepared return gifts long ago; although they were far from what Wenren Qingxuan and Li Mu gave, they were sufficient to show their full sincerity!

On this day, Yuehua Palace was adorned with lanterns and streamers; although Li Shengyuan had not yet held the wedding ceremony with Yue Xiyan and Yue Qingmeng, it was not far off…

Or rather, an engagement would be more appropriate; it’s just that the world is currently in turmoil, making it impossible to set a good date.

And if there were to be a ceremony, it would definitely have to include Shen Xinrong and Princess Pingyang as well!

He hadn’t even won over Empress Sister yet…

Li Shengyuan was now extremely confident in his strength; as long as his senior sister had not broken through to the first rank, he believed his strength was 99% superior to hers!

Although his senior sister Female Emperor Mu Qingning had not revealed her strength, he felt that she shouldn’t be that outrageous; if she, at such a young age, under thirty, had broken through to the first rank, her talent would be too terrifying…

He was able to improve so quickly because he had a cheat!

As long as his strength surpassed that of Empress Sister, conquering her would not be difficult!

The scene of having all the world’s beauties in his arms, as in his Heart Demon Tribulation, would no longer be distant!

Just thinking about it, Li Shengyuan felt a little excited…

From the day he began cultivating with his senior sister, this had already been his dream!

The dinner party lasted very late, and everyone gradually returned to rest.

During the banquet, Li Shengyuan also noticed many brothers from the Demon Suppression Division exchanging glances with the women of Yuehua Palace.

He secretly thought that this group of perverts wanted to develop Yuehua Palace into a marriage alliance!

However, Li Shengyuan did not object to this; there was nothing wrong with a strong alliance.

But if anyone were to abandon them, then they would need to be properly dealt with…

As for whether they could enjoy the same polygamous bliss as him, that would depend on their own abilities…

Although everyone else's banquet had ended, Li Shengyuan's own banquet had just begun.

Yue Qingmeng also knew what might happen tonight, so she found an excuse to leave early, just to give Li Shengyuan and her master a chance to be alone.

Yue Xiyan held Li Shengyuan's hand and led him to the peak of Yuehua Peak, which was where the Crescent Spring was located; the palace on the spring was Yue Xiyan’s usual residence and cultivation chamber.

Walking along the edge of the Crescent Spring, tonight’s moonlight was exceptionally bright, and the moon was very full.

The full moon reflected on the Crescent Spring, making the place exceptionally pure and serene.

Li Shengyuan looked at Yue Xiyan, who was half-leaning on him like a small bird nestled in its nest, and couldn't help but exclaim, “Our Yuehua Palace is truly a good place for romance; it just looks so romantic…”

Yue Xiyan turned her head, blinked her eyes at Li Shengyuan, and softly asked with a smile, “Are we in love now?”

Li Shengyuan shook his head, “No, we already had our romance in that cave in the Far North and on the way back to Shanhai Pass!”

“Then what stage are we in now?” Yue Xiyan tilted her head, looking at Li Shengyuan, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.

Li Shengyuan’s lips curved into a slight smile; he pulled Yue Xiyan’s delicate body into his embrace and mischievously said, “Our current stage is to let Granny Hua hold her grandson as soon as possible!”
