Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse-Chapter 179 - 155: Is He Related to Central State? Someone Comes from Central State
Chapter 179: Chapter 155: Is He Related to Central State? Someone Comes from Central State
He had suspected that the person was a Ninth Grade Great Power from the Gu Family who had returned from Central State.
But he could never have imagined that the answer would be this!
For a moment, he couldn’t help but reevaluate the seemingly casual young man.
What was it that he couldn’t see, which made a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm Great Power willingly become a follower?
Could it be that the Gu Family Ancestor had used some kind of method?
The Old Blind Man just stood by the side of the square, his eyes closed and silent. Although he was curious, he couldn’t possibly inquire about it in this setting.
...
He could only wait until later to ask Qingqing and find out what the situation really was!
The numerous disciples of the Heavenly Cold Sect present didn’t notice anything unusual.
Their attention hadn’t concerned the Old Blind Man standing at the edge at all; if he was really a great power, why would he appear so humble?
Xu Qing was even more focused on that detestable Young Master Gu, with no mind to care about anything else.
He was, after all, the Saint Heir of the Green Sun Sect, yet in Gu Changge’s mouth, things took on a different flavor!
Because he was currently in the Northern Domain, even if he felt extremely displeased, he dared not flip the table and show his displeasure openly. He could only silently note down this grudge.
He also became more determined to find a way to obtain Liu Qingqing’s Root Bone!
Once he could escape back to the Eastern Domain, what could the Gu Family do?
As for whether the Heavenly Cold Sect would seek explanations from the Green Sun Sect or even fall out with them, he didn’t care!
If the opportunity had come already, he would have gone to Central State to pledge allegiance to that Saint Heir, staying in the Green Sun Sect would only limit his future achievements!
“Cursed…”
“Once she switches to cultivating the Heavenly Cold Sect Saintess Cultivation Technique, there will be no opportunity.”
“But now there’s the trouble of the Gu Family, which complicates things.”
Just as he was frowning with vexation about having no chance, the Communication Jade Token in his arms faintly emitted a glow of Spiritual Energy.
Initially in a bad mood, he wasn’t willing to pay attention to it, but after casually taking it out, he quickly became much more serious.
This was a message from Central State.
“Recognize the Young Master of the Gu Family in the Northern Domain.”
A simple sentence made Xu Qing completely freeze.
The Young Master of the Gu Family in the Northern Domain, wasn’t he right in front of his eyes?
But why would that significant figure suddenly care about him!?
Although unsure whether it was good or bad, he still instantly thought and responded through the Jade Talisman: “Currently, I am indeed at the Heavenly Cold Sect, encountering that Young Master of the Gu Family.”
“Is there a member of the Dragon Clan or a white-haired lady with him?”
Another message arrived soon after.
Even though he was not in direct contact with that Ninth Saint Heir of the Holy Land, but with one of his prominent associates, Xu Qing wasn’t worthy to converse directly with the Saint Heir himself.
Looking at the message, he could only scan the people the Gu Family brought with them, not knowing if everyone had arrived.
He could only respond truthfully: “I have not seen them, I am not sure if they have been arranged to rest at the Heavenly Cold Sect.”
This time, he received no reply, leaving Xu Qing conflicted.
If this Young Master Gu had connections with that figure in Central State, he better forget any petty plans.
He could disregard the Gu Family and even the dispute between the Heavenly Cold Sect and the Green Sun Sect.
But this Heavenly Ascension Road in Central State, he could neither give up nor afford to provoke. Otherwise, there would be nowhere to hide.
After a moment’s thought, he decided to find a chance to probe the situation.
And the Saintess’s enthronement ceremony also began, announced by Wan Shan Taoist.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Liu Qingqing walked forward, listening to her Master, Wan Shan Taoist’s long teachings.
Her eyes occasionally drifted below to her husband, who was lightly smiling and winking at her, feeling that every moment was worth it.
“Young Master Gu’s advancement in realm is truly astonishing.”
As Gu Changge watched his wife, Zhu Qin beside him whispered.
“When do you intend to fulfill our agreement?”
Hearing her, Gu Changge did not turn his head, still smiling as he watched his wife who was the focus of everyone’s attention, and casually said,
“Let’s wait until the ceremony is over…”
Seeing how direct he was, but considering they were surrounded by Heavenly Cold Sect disciples, even Elders and the Sect Master, Zhu Qin nervously spoke and dared not say more.
Gu Changge, confident in his status, even if Yayun’s death were linked to him, it didn’t matter. The Gu Family could just make an explanation or even fabricate one.
Just like that Northern Domain Prince who was said to have been killed by a murderer who had since been executed.
But in reality?
This Young Master Gu was sitting right beside him, well and alive. Who cares which unfortunate soul was executed?
But her situation was different. Now that she had failed to become Saintess, she was just another direct disciple like Yayun. If found to have harmed a fellow sect member, the end would likely be tragic.
But there was no choice; to gain something, one must always pay a certain price or stake.
She glanced at Young Master Gu beside her.
She lightly pursed her lips, an odd thought inevitably arising in her heart.
If it were Young Master Gu, she might not mind using herself as the price, like Yayun did.

But…
She decisively shook her head, dismissing the thought.
Not to mention whether she was willing to sacrifice her body, even if she were, Young Master Gu might not even spare her a glance.
His close female companions by his side, each of them was no less than herself.
Junior Sister Liu was already on a high platform, inheriting the position of the Saintess of the Heavenly Cold Sect under everyone’s watchful eyes.
“Once a Saintess of our Heavenly Cold Sect, no matter where you go in the future, this identity will not change.”
