Chapter 335: The In-Laws

“Dad, help!”

In the cave, Li Xiaojun was cultivating when he suddenly received a distress call from his son.

“What happened?”

Li Xiaojun asked as he opened the teleportation route.

In the Holy City of Nuwa, a man was being chased by a group of people.

“Scoundrel, dare to tease my sister? You’re dead meat, kid!”

Behind him, a man with a fierce expression commanded several guards to corner the man.

“Big brother-in-law, a graceful lady is a worthy match for a gentleman. Don’t worry, I will definitely make Sister Zong happy!”

“Stop right there! Do you think I won’t beat you to death?”

“Big brother-in-law, please! I truly like Sister Zong!”

“You useless bunch! Catch him! I want to skin him alive…”

Hearing this, the man refused to back down.

He threatened back, “Big brother-in-law, just you wait! You’ve recognized this brother-in-law now!”

Before he finished his words, under everyone’s gaze, his figure abruptly disappeared.

“What?”

Seeing this, the man who called himself Zong Batian was immediately astonished.

His guards were also extremely shocked.

A small fry in the human immortal barrier had just slipped away right under their noses?

“You useless bunch! You can’t even catch a kid in the human immortal barrier. What’s the use of keeping you around?”

“Young master, the other party is protected by third-rank immortal armor; we can’t do anything about it,” a guard said with a bitter smile.

If it weren’t for the third-rank immortal armor, they would have captured him already.

“Find out where this kid came from immediately! How dare he tease my sister?”

…

“What’s wrong with you?”

Seeing his son appear looking somewhat disheveled after teleportation, Li Xiaojun immediately asked with concern.

“Dad, I have my eyes on a woman; she seems to have some interest in me, but her brother disagrees. Can you help me propose?”

“You have your eyes on a woman? Are you sure she likes you back?”

“I’m sure, Dad! Sister Zong likes me…”

“Tell me more about it.”

Li Xiaojun said lightly.

He needed more information to analyze the situation; he couldn’t just rush into things based on a few words.

No one has been born yet who can command me with just a word.

Hearing Li Xiaojun say this, he could only explain the situation in detail.

It turned out that he had taken a liking to a girl on the street, and she was only at the Integration stage. So, he wanted to become partners with her to have children together.

However, what he didn’t expect was that, even though her cultivation level was not high, she was not an ordinary person.

She was a young lady from a small family, of noble status, so how could she possibly be interested in someone like him, who had nothing to offer?

Nevertheless, he didn’t give up and actively pursued her, but to her brother, his actions seemed like flirting.

As a result, he was surrounded and beaten up, and had to seek help from his father.

After listening to his son, Li Xiaojun couldn’t be bothered with such matters.

He said to his son, “There are plenty of fish in the sea. If this one doesn’t work out, just find another.”

All he wanted was for his children to pass down family lines, not to have them bring trouble to him.

With so many children, if he had to help each one with their romantic troubles, he would be overwhelmed.

“Alright, handle your own affairs.”

Li Xiaojun waved his hand and directly moved his son out of his cave.

What he could do was help his daughters out of danger when needed.

As for situations where his son was clearly tangled up with someone and mistaken for teasing, he was unwilling to intervene.

Li Xiaojun believed that after this lesson, his son would likely give up on the woman with the surname Zong.

However, to his surprise, a few days later, that kid showed up at his mansion with a group of people.

“Dad, someone wants to visit you,” Liu Hongxia’s voice came.

“Who is it?”

Li Xiaojun responded, and then he used his divine sense to scan, quickly spotting a group of people outside the Li Mansion.

Among them, the most powerful was a mid Profound Immortal stage expert.

“Please let the guests in,” Li Xiaojun instructed Liu Hongxia.

Soon, Li Xiaojun also came out from his retreat.

When Li Xiaojun arrived in the living room, Liu Hongxia had already brought the guests in.

Everyone’s gaze turned towards him as he entered.

Among them was Zong Sheng, the family head of the Zong family.

Zong Sheng looked at Li Xiaojun, who felt to him like an ordinary mortal, making it hard to read his true strength.

Li Xiaojun sensed the divine sense pressure from the mid Profound Immortal realm, causing him to frown involuntarily, and then he released his own divine sense pressure at the mid-Golden Immortal level.

Half a month ago, Li Xiaojun had successfully broken through to the mid-Golden Immortal stage.

On the other side, Zong Sheng’s face changed drastically as he felt Li Xiaojun’s overwhelming divine sense pressure.

“Junior Zong Sheng greets the Immortal,” Zong Sheng quickly bowed to Li Xiaojun.

“Immortal” is a respectful term for powerful Golden Immortals, much like how great emperors are referred to in the mortal realm during the Tribulation stage.

Having tested and understood the strength of the person before him, Zong Sheng now showed great respect.

Seeing his attitude, Li Xiaojun didn’t get angry.

“What brings you here, Zong family head?” Li Xiaojun asked.

“Senior, I have come to discuss the marriage of my son and your young daughter…” Zong Sheng hurriedly explained to Li Xiaojun.

“My son? Which one?”

“Is it the son, Li Minghao?”

“Li Minghao? What’s going on with him?”

“It’s that Wenhao sent someone to our house for matchmaking, wishing to marry my young daughter, Susu. I am here to meet with Wenhao’s family to discuss the marriage between the two children…” Zong Sheng smiled at Li Xiaojun.

In fact, he had come mainly to confirm whether Li Xiaojun was truly a Golden Immortal.

Yesterday, a guy named Li Minghao sent someone to propose marriage, claiming that his father was a Golden Immortal.

Zong Sheng had noted how earnest he seemed, which was why he personally came to visit and verify.

If Li Minghao’s father was not a Golden Immortal, or if Li Minghao was not truly his son, then there would be no chance for him and his daughter Susu to be together.

However, the current situation showed that Li Minghao’s father was indeed a Golden Immortal, which left no room for negotiation.

Zong Sheng already agreed to the marriage; even if his daughter disagreed, it wouldn’t matter.

As long as there was a slight chance, he would find a way to make it happen.

This world is pragmatic; ordinary mortals value social status, let alone immortal families in the cultivation world.

If he could connect his family with a Golden Immortal, it would be hugely beneficial for their entire clan.

So now, Zong Sheng’s mindset completely shifted.

If his son tried to stop Li Minghao from being with his daughter, he would be ready to break his son’s legs.
