If Li Xueyun's mother had married a Core Formation old monster, she naturally would not have had to worry about anything. Her husband would have sheltered her from every storm.
If danger arose, her husband could act. If they needed materials or treasures, her husband could provide them.
But now, she had love, yet her beloved's Cultivation Level was even lower than hers. Several times, when they encountered powerful demonic beasts, they had been beaten until they could not fight back at all, leaving her, a weak woman, to battle the beasts to the death alone.
As for the spirit stones and treasures needed for cultivation, a mere wandering cultivator had even less. Originally, if she had remained in the Joyous Union Sect, Li Xueyun's mother might have had a chance to advance to Core Formation. Yet in the thirty years since marrying, her Cultivation Level had not improved in the slightest.
They had been wandering all along, with none of the spiritual pills and miraculous medicines they needed. Sometimes, when she thought back on those days, her feelings were exceedingly complicated. She had gained love.
But shielding his wife from hardship was the most basic duty a husband should fulfill. If the man she married could not even do that, it was hard to imagine there could be any happiness.
Of course, her husband still cherished her greatly. She was very satisfied with that.
As for whether she regretted it, she did not know. Only the two of them knew the bitterness and joy of it all. The only one they had wronged was their daughter, who had scarcely lived a good life following her parents.
There were too many dangers in the cultivation world. Three years ago, their family of three had encountered a Core Formation demonic beast.
