"marry?"
When Wu Ming told Lu Tao the news, Lu Tao was somewhat dazed.
Back then, when Wu Ming followed Lu Tao, he was just a nine-year-old kid. In the blink of an eye, he has reached the age of marriage.
certainly.
Despite his dazed state, Lu Tao wasn't surprised.
Wu Ming and Li Shuyao had long been in love, so it was only natural for them to get married at this time.
actually.
Among cultivators, Wu Ming is considered relatively young, especially considering that he is not yet fifty years old and his cultivation has reached the peak of the Divine Lord realm.
In the desolate region, very few cultivators would get married at this time.
However, Wu Ming grew up in the lower realm, and the people around him generally had the concept of marriage age as being around twenty or thirty years old.
Furthermore...
With the example of Lu Tao, the sect leader, who is only a few years older than him, he already has four children, two of whom are already adults.
It's easy to see that Wu Ming is quite eager to get married.
"You've finally grown up, kid."
Lu Tao sighed.
Lu Tao, of course, would not refuse Wu Ming's request and agreed to officiate their wedding, saying, "Marriage is a major event, so it must be a grand affair."
Wu Ming was an elder of the Immortal Sect, and he had grown up with Lu Tao since childhood. Lu Tao was quite concerned about his wedding and decided to hold a grand celebration for the entire sect.
"Brother Tao, there's no need to go to so much trouble."
Wu Ming scratched his head, becoming somewhat shy as the wedding day approached.
Lu Tao waved his hand and laughed, "With the strength of my Immortal Sect, what trouble is there in holding a wedding?"
As he spoke, Lu Tao gave the order directly, instructing the disciples and elders of the Immortal Sect to begin making arrangements.
Li Shuyao bowed to Lu Tao excitedly and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Sect Master."
"Um!"
Lu Tao nodded, raised his right hand to help Li Shuyao up, looked at the graceful disciple in front of him, recalled that she had changed her surname to remember the hatred, and smiled: "If Wu Ming bullies you in the future, you can tell this sect master, and this sect master will deal with him for you."
"metropolitan!"
Li Shuyao's eyes were a little red, and her voice was choked with emotion.
Without the sect leader, she didn't know what her life would be like.
When she was at her most desperate, it was the sect leader who saved her. After joining the Immortal Sect, it was Wu Ming who stayed by her side. It can be said that they are the two most important people in her life now.
Now, she has long since let go of her hatred and is working hard for the Immortal Sect.
"Alright, you can go and get ready."
Lu Tao nodded, signaling Li Shuyao not to overthink it, and told the two of them to go and prepare for the wedding.
Wu Ming then led Li Shuyao away.
"How envious! The sect leader himself officiated at Elder Wu's wedding!"
"When I get married, I also want the clan leader to officiate for us."
"You haven't even found a partner yet, so don't even dream about getting married."
...
When Wu Ming got married, the entire Immortal Sect sprang into action.
Some played the suona, some played the drums, and some carried the sedan chair...
The entire Immortal Sect was bustling with activity.
"I bow to Heaven and Earth!"
"Bowing to the parents twice!"
"Husband and wife bow to each other!"
With Lu Tao's shout, Wu Ming and Li Shuyao officially became husband and wife.
Wu Tianyou and Zhou Yulan, the couple sitting on the high seat, were beaming with joy as they looked at their son and daughter-in-law, their smiles never fading.
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Everything they are experiencing now feels like a dream to the couple.
They were just an ordinary couple in a small town, only able to do farm work. They were illiterate, let alone martial arts.
As a result, by following Lu Tao, in just a few decades, he not only ascended to godhood but also cultivated to the peak of the God-King level, possessing a lifespan of hundreds of thousands of years.
We can go even further in the future.
Now that their son is married and his wife is so outstanding, how could they not be happy?
All they had was because, as neighbors, they occasionally let Lu Tao have a meal at their house after his parents passed away.
Congratulations!
"Congratulations Elder Wu, congratulations Elder Zhou!"
"Congratulations, Brother Wu, congratulations..."
...
After the wedding ceremony concluded, Wu Ming escorted Li Shuyao to the bridal chamber, while Wu Tianyou and Zhou Yulan received congratulations from numerous cultivators in the main hall of the Immortal Sect.
Everyone was clinking glasses and exchanging toasts.
"General Wei is as dashing as ever, thank you very much!"
"Lord Shen, it's been a long time! Thank you so much!"
"Thank you, Mayor Xu. I'll take it. You can do as you please!"
...
Wu Mingcheng's wedding was attended by many people, including not only disciples and elders of the Immortal Sect, but also many people from the Qianyu Continent.
General Wei, Lord Shen, Mayor Xu, and others were all present.
In particular, many of the neighbors from Dafeng Town came, without exception.
Nowadays, their cultivation levels are all quite high.
With a rich cultivation environment, coupled with various amplifications and the support of cultivation techniques, they cultivated for more than thirty years, and their cultivation level had at least reached the Divine Platform Realm.
Most of them have already transcended the tribulation and become Martial Kings.
This is still limited by aptitude; if the aptitude were slightly better, they would all become martial gods.
But they're just residents of the same town, so how good could their qualifications be?
but.
Because of their inferior aptitude, in the new Ganyu Continent, which possesses top-grade divine veins, they not only cultivate themselves but also nurture their offspring.
Just as they had guessed, their offspring were far more gifted than they had been.
At least all of them are of good quality, with nearly 10% of the newborns reaching the highest quality level or above, and quite a few reaching the highest quality level as well.
As for those with divine-grade aptitude, there wasn't a single one.
The townspeople were unaware of the specific reason, but Lu Tao knew it was simply because the upper limit of aptitude in a top-tier minor world was only Heavenly Grade.
Only by increasing the level of the Lesser Thousand Worlds can the upper limit of aptitude be increased.
At that time, divine-grade talents will surely emerge.
Even so, the success rate is still incredibly high. While the high-grade aptitude can't compare to the desolate regions of the God Realm, the proportion of those in the middle range exceeds that of the desolate regions.
This is true for Dafeng Town, and it is certainly true for the entire Ganyu Continent.
This is the current state of development in the small world.
Whether it's the Ganyu Continent or other human races, they haven't missed the opportunity to reproduce while cultivating.
This has led to an increasing number of geniuses within the entire small world.
There are countless beings who have the potential to become pseudo-Marrow Refiners.
Lu Tao was very satisfied with all of this.
Even the development of the small world far exceeded Lu Tao's expectations.
The more geniuses there are, the more powerful individuals there will be, and the more faith points they will contribute. Lu Tao only hopes that they can continue to snowball like this.
certainly.
For those who had the potential to become pseudo-Marrow Refiners, Lu Tao also allowed them to join the Immortal Sect's branch sect, using the sect's amplification to comprehend cultivation techniques.
As for the specific cultivation process, Lu Tao did not interfere further.
It can be said that in just two or three decades, the faith points contributed by the beings in the world to Lu Tao are comparable to the contributions of ten thousand planets in the outside world.
This also saved Lu Tao a lot of time.
You need to know.
This only applies to the human race of the Ganyu Continent and the Desolate Region.
If all one hundred planets and ten thousand races were included, the amount of faith points they would contribute would be terrifying.
——
Wu Ming's wedding was celebrated by the Immortal Sect for three days and three nights.
After that, the Immortal Sect would hold a wedding every so often.
It is evident that the disciples of the Immortal Sect, having spent so much time together, had already developed feelings for each other, resulting in numerous couples forming within the Immortal Sect.
Xu Le, Zhang Chao, Luo Yu, Feng Shasha, and others have all found their other halves.
They all invited Lu Tao, the sect leader, to officiate their weddings.
Of course, some disciples are still single.
For example, Zhao Miaotong, Mu Yihan, Kong Xin, and Xiaotianquan.
After getting married, neither Wu Ming and Li Shuyao, nor any other couples, chose to have children.
The main reason is that there is an upper limit to the qualifications required to conceive a child in the microcosm.
No parent doesn't want their child to be more talented. They are still young and have already achieved a high level of cultivation, so they are not in a hurry about having children.
actually.
They could have asked Lu Tao, the sect leader, for a Nascent Soul Pill, but they all knew that being able to join the Immortal Sect was already lucky enough, and they couldn't ask for more.
The sect leader can give them to them, but they cannot ask for them.
Furthermore, as their experience grew, they became very aware of the preciousness of the Nascent Soul Pill King.
Giving them even one is already a tremendous favor; how could they possibly ask for more?
Moreover...
Having cultivated to the Divine Lord realm, the disciples of the Immortal Sect are no longer the naive youths they once were. They not only have to consider their own interests, but also the perspectives of the Immortal Sect and its leader.
Imagine...
If their children could all improve their aptitude, comprehension, and talent in the same way they did, then thousands of powerful families would emerge in the Immortal Sect in the future.
This is definitely not a good thing for the Immortal Sect.
These disciples of the Immortal Sect can continue to follow the Immortal Sect and grow stronger with the sect leader, but their descendants must never replicate their path.
Otherwise, the Immortal Sect in the future may very well fall apart because of their descendants.
This is not a scene they wanted to see.
Although they knew that as long as the sect leader was around, neither they nor their descendants could cause any trouble, they still had to prevent this from happening.
therefore.
After the marriage, no new members appeared in the Immortal Sect for the time being.
Anyway, they are still young, and they have plenty of time to have children in the future.
Even the mounts of the Immortal Sect, whether they are true dragons or mounts of other races, have not yet married, and naturally no offspring have been born.
——
"Xiaotian, are you still planning to stay single?"
That day, while Lu Tao accompanied He Yuanshuang on her outing, he would occasionally glance at the Howling Celestial Dog to the side, a mocking expression on his face.
Back then...
When they first ascended to the God Realm, the Celestial Hound, while walking through Tianbian City, shamelessly boasted that he would marry several more. However, as the years have passed, most of the other disciples of the Immortal Sect have already gotten married, while it remains single.
The Celestial Hound remained on all fours in its original form, saying without raising its head, "Didn't find a suitable one."
"I've heard you've been traveling to the other three planets a lot lately. Are you looking for a cultivation partner?"
Lu Tao joked, "You've been picking for so long and still haven't chosen one?"
Xiaotian said helplessly, "Boss, finding a Daoist partner is really not easy, especially in a small world, it's too difficult."
"How so?" Lu Tao asked, somewhat curious.
Xiaotian sighed, "I certainly can't look for a Daoist partner as an elder of the Immortal Sect, otherwise countless beings would rush into my arms as soon as I reveal my identity."
"But those who are after my status, and I can't tell if they're sincere, so of course I can't accept them."
Xiaotian suddenly chuckled and looked at Lu Tao, asking, "Tell me, boss, if your wife hadn't been sincere with you, would you have married her?"
"Husband, do you know how?"
Before Lu Tao could speak, He Yuanshuang looked over, her eyes filled with amusement and curiosity.
Lu Tao, however, saw a danger signal in it. He kicked Xiaotianquan without making a sound and snorted, "Your sister-in-law wouldn't be fake to me."
As he spoke, Lu Tao looked at He Yuanshuang with affection and asked, "Right, Shuang'er?"
"snort!"
He Yuanshuang feigned anger and pinched Lu Tao's lower back.
That's how women are; they can get angry even when nothing has happened.
Even He Yuanshuang, who had already reached the realm of a celestial being, was no exception.
Seeing this, Xiaotianquan chuckled, "Boss, that doesn't really answer my question."
It's also someone who loves to watch the drama unfold.
Lu Tao remained silent, firmly holding He Yuanshuang's jade hand, ignoring Xiaotian Dog, and kicked it away.
As a result, Xiaotianquan came running over again, wanting to ask more questions, but was kicked away by He Yuanshuang.
"No, are you targeting me?" Xiaotianquan was almost speechless.
"If not you, then who are we targeting?"
Lu Tao said matter-of-factly, "Who told you to disturb my wife and me while we were enjoying our time together?"
"Woof woof woof!"
The Celestial Hound could only bark helplessly.
After some playful banter, Lu Tao suggested, "Since you don't want to search for a Daoist partner as an elder, then go look for one as an ordinary person."
"Sigh, this is tough."
When the topic came up, the Celestial Hound looked worried and sighed, "I've already tried. If I look for a partner as an ordinary person, there will still be those who are interested in me, but I won't be interested in them. And those I am interested in, they look down on me. Sigh, it's so worrying."
As he spoke, Xiaotian lowered his head in a somewhat dejected manner.
He Yuanshuang comforted him, saying, "Xiaotian, you yourself said that you must be sincere when looking for a Daoist partner. When you go to look again, don't give up easily. You must persevere."
"Sister-in-law, this is easier said than done," Xiaotian sighed, looking up at the sky.
He Yuanshuang smiled and said, "We believe you can do it."
"All right."
The Celestial Hound nodded, though it was unclear whether he had actually heard it.
At this moment, Lu Tao said, "Don't worry, no matter what kind of Daoist partner you find, as long as they have no disloyalty to the Immortal Sect, I will let them join the Immortal Sect."
The Celestial Hound was initially delighted, but then asked with concern, "Boss, won't this have a negative impact?"
It understood perfectly what its boss meant.
Joining the Immortal Sect means receiving the same treatment as other Immortal Sect disciples.
The enhancements and benefits for improving aptitude, comprehension, and talent are exactly the same.
Experience pills are also included.
But Xiaotianquan also understood that doing so would set a precedent.
Other disciples and mounts of the Immortal Sect will likely follow suit.
Not to mention Daoist partners, some disciples even consider bringing their families and descendants into the fold.
This will indirectly increase Lu Tao's burden.
However, if Lu Tao doesn't improve the Daoist partners of other disciples and mounts, or doesn't allow those families to enter the Immortal Sect, they will feel it's unfair.
Lu Tao laughed and said, "It's alright. There aren't many unmarried people to begin with, so a few hundred more disciples won't make a difference. Besides..."
At this point, Lu Tao smiled proudly and said, "Other disciples are other disciples, and you are you. If anyone feels it's unfair, they are free to leave the Immortal Sect."
"You need to understand, the Immortal Sect is your boss, and no one else can change my decision," Lu Tao added as a final sentence.
"Hehe, the boss is right."
Upon hearing this, the Celestial Dog chuckled to himself.
"Go, find your place as soon as possible."
While urging him on, Lu Tao also reminded him, "Remember, don't forget to comprehend the domain either. That's the important thing. Don't get the priorities mixed up."
"Understood, goodbye boss, goodbye sister-in-law."
The celestial hound immediately sprang into action, disappearing from Lu Tao and his wife's sight in the blink of an eye.
Seeing the Celestial Hound fly away, Lu Tao grabbed He Yuanshuang's waist and said with a wicked smile, "Shuang'er, your husband is tired."
"Hmph, I was just instructing Xiaotian to comprehend the domain, how come you're disturbing me now? I'm going into seclusion." He Yuanshuang snorted.
As she spoke, she made a move to run away, but she couldn't break free from Lu Tao's large hand and was pulled back.
"I will teach you how to cultivate."
Lu Tao chuckled mischievously, picked up He Yuanshuang without a word, and carried her into his safe house in the blink of an eye.
The two quickly became immersed in special training.
As she cultivated, He Yuanshuang's questioning voice faintly echoed again, "Husband, shall we continue to have children?"
"Uh...no!"
Lu Tao hurriedly refused, and his voice seemed to tremble slightly.
——
Waiting is always a bit boring.
Especially during the long wait, Lu Tao was unable to cultivate.
He only occasionally spent time with He Yuanshuang, and spent most of his time integrating various cultivation techniques and refining various items in the small world, keeping himself busy and not wanting to become decadent.
also.
He is also preparing for what's to come, making various plans through prayer.
As a powerful God-Emperor, the strange young man was probably no ordinary God-Emperor. Lu Tao dared not be careless in dealing with him.
He must give it his all.
It's not just about success, but also about ensuring absolute safety.
If there were no statues of deities to pray to, and Lu Tao had to take risks to do anything, he would accept any price he paid for it.
But since he had the option of having a statue to pray to, he naturally wanted to do his best, or at least try as many times as possible.
This is not only taking responsibility for himself, but also for the Immortal Sect.
Time slipped away amidst Lu Tao's busy schedule.
In the blink of an eye, another fifteen years have passed.
Buzz!
On this day, a special fluctuation suddenly emanated from where Lu Ling was in seclusion.
The fluctuation was so subtle that even the powerful disciples of the Immortal Sect couldn't react to it; only Lu Tao sensed it.
"It's perfect!"
Lu Tao was overjoyed.
As Lu Tao finished speaking, countless domain flowers appeared within the small world.
