Chapter 1646: Chapter 1646: Regret
The people of the Xie Family were stunned by this scene.
Wasn’t it said that the eight Immortal Venerables were hunting Shi Hao?
What’s going on?
Both sides were being cordial; no, these representatives of the Immortal Venerables were even being humble, treating Shi Hao completely like a senior.
What is this?
They suddenly wondered, has Shi Hao already become a match for the Immortal Venerables?
Otherwise, why would the eight Immortal Venerables change their hostile attitude so suddenly?
This!
Thinking of this, each member of the Xie Family was beaming with excitement, feeling like they were about to burst.
Too, too, too excited!
Who could have imagined that the father-in-law would be so outstanding?
Did the Xie Family perform some good deeds to deserve such a marriage alliance?
The descendants of the eight Immortal Venerables all came bearing lavish gifts from the Immortal Venerables, and the ninth Immortal Venerable, Old Ding, also sent representatives.
Zhang Tianyu.
This senior brother looked at Shi Hao, sighing endlessly.
Alas, how am I going to get by in the future?
He watched this boy grow up step by step, but precisely because of this, he found it shockingly hard to accept.
Not even ten thousand years yet, and he has become an Immortal Venerable?
Although Old Ding actually became an Immortal Venerable three thousand years after entering the Immortal Realm, Old Ding lived nine lives, accumulating each time. Otherwise, would it be possible to become an Immortal Venerable in three thousand years? No way.
Previously, he constantly referred to him as little junior brother, now what?
Should he start calling him sir?
"Haha, let’s just call each other brothers," Shi Hao chuckled. He had never intended to take Old Ding as his master, but since the other side repeatedly sent disciples to help him out of trouble, even contending against the eight Immortal Venerables for him, he felt grateful. And Zhang Tianyu, who directly helped him, was remembered kindly as well.
Zhang Tianyu nodded, he truly couldn’t bring himself to call Shi Hao any title like sir or senior.
The nine Immortal Venerables had all arrived.
The Xie Family members felt that even if they died now, it would be worth it.
Who could achieve such glory, wouldn’t it be okay to die immediately?
Those who insisted on splitting the family, aren’t you feeling utterly humiliated and regretful for your decisions?
Hahaha!
The wedding ended in perfection, but many Immortal Kings didn’t leave. Instead, they shamelessly stayed under the pretext of seeking guidance from Shi Hao.
They stayed, so of course their disciples stayed too, surrounding Shi Rou and the other two women all day, trying their best to impress.
Shi Hao naturally didn’t mind, as he guided his four children, aiming for them to reach the Nine Stars Immortal King rank soon, even to Break the Extreme and advance to quasi-Immortal Venerable.
One day, he would leave, taking that arduous path, and who knows what lies on the other side.
So, before leaving, he wanted to eliminate all hidden threats, pushing his four children to quasi-Immortal Venerables, or even directly achieving the Immortal Venerable rank.
And when the grand event of Shi Hu’s wedding spread around the world, those in the Xie Family who were determined to split were bewildered.
What happened?
Why?
Wasn’t Shi Hao being hunted by the eight Immortal Venerables? Why are they sending people to congratulate him?
Why can’t they understand the situation at all?
These people naturally regretted it to death, hastily running to the Xie Family, requesting to rejoin the family.
Isn’t it normal to separate and reunite?
The current Xie Family naturally disagreed.
Oh, when there was difficulty, you didn’t want to share the hardship, but now that there’s prosperity, you want to partake?
What a joke.
Besides, even though Shi Hao is at the Immortal Venerable level of strength and has given the Xie Family a large amount of cultivation resources, it wouldn’t be excessively distributed to everyone.
So, why bring in more people to share the resources?
And these ingrates at that!
These split members wouldn’t just watch the benefits slip away, so they shamelessly loitered, for a year, ten years, a hundred years, waiting for a chance.
Shi Hao didn’t care about such matters; he only smiled upon hearing about it.
The affairs of the Xie Family naturally should be dealt with by the Xie Family people; he wouldn’t intervene.
Time flew by, year after year.
Shi Hu and his wife traveled the world, but they returned before even two hundred years had passed.
Xie Lei
Was pregnant.
Upon hearing the news, Shi Hao was overjoyed.
He was going to be a grandfather.
From an ordinary viewpoint, he should be enshrined in the ancestral hall by now, let alone becoming a grandfather, but looking from the perspectives of Immortal Kings and Immortal Venerables, being not even ten thousand years old yet, how young is that?
Shi Hao began preparing for the birth of his grandchildren.
Originally, he didn’t intend to enter the Forbidden Land so soon, but for the third generation, he went in to collect treasures.
A year later, Xie Lei gave birth.
A grandson.
Whether a boy or a girl, Shi Hao didn’t care; as long as it was his descendant, that was fine.
The addition of a child to the Shi Family was, of course, another great joy, but this time Shi Hao didn’t widely invite the world; he only asked Old Ding to come for a drink, keeping it very low-key.
Having reached such heights, there was no need to make a spectacle of proving anything.
After this, Shi Hao began living a peaceful life.
Spending time with family, then learning and understanding.
This was a rare leisure time, and next, he planned to resolve the issues with the eight Immortal Venerables and Xuanbing Xianwang, as well as the Asura Realm, to make them completely give up and dare not invade again. After solving these issues, he would take that arduous path to explore the existence on the other side, why the war between two realms was instigated.
He kept comprehending, his power improving leaps and bounds.
At this stage, there was no medicine in the world that could help him anymore.
—unless, he wished to heal injuries or live another life.
But Shi Hao didn’t need medicine anymore.
He was now too strong, with a single thought, he could absorb endless energy.
The Stone Mill?
Completely ineffective.
He had already extracted and refined it into his grandson Shi Yuan’s body.
He was extracting the Origin Rules, strengthening his physique, allowing it to contain more power.
With his cultivation speed, theoretically, it would only take a few thousand years for him to cultivate to a quasi-Immortal Venerable Perfection, thus initiating an Origin Battle with a certain Immortal Venerable to vie for the Immortal Venerable position.
However, he was cultivating nine Origin Dao paths simultaneously; every step forward made his strength grow immensely, but it also meant more time was needed for cultivation.
A few thousand years?
Impossible.
Shi Hao was not in a hurry; he cultivated slowly, understanding deeply.
In the blink of an eye, another three hundred years passed.
Shi Hao felt he had become much stronger again, though exactly how much stronger, he had no idea.
Hmm?
In his Soul Sea, there seemed to be a sudden ripple.
What was going on?
Shi Hao realized that the mark gouged out before was causing trouble.
This was stamped in his soul by a certain Great Emperor from the Asura Realm, but it was removed when Shi Zhong devoured his physique, so only a trace of Asura Realm’s aura remained, eliminating the hidden threat.
Yet now, there was a tremor!
Could it be that the Asura Realm’s Great Emperor intended to seize his body just now?
Moreover, this sensation was very strong!
Did that person enter the Immortal Realm?
How did they come in?
He immediately stood up, sensed, and then leaped out.
