Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse-Chapter 181 - 155: Is He Related to Central State? Someone from Central State Comes_3
Chapter 181: Chapter 155: Is He Related to Central State? Someone from Central State Comes_3
With the Elder’s consent, Xu Qing bowed slightly in greeting and then followed the team.
He even took the initiative to greet Gu Changge with a smile, “I have long heard of the distinguished name of Young Master Gu, and seeing you today, it is indeed well deserved.”
“Is that so? For a moment, I can’t tell if my Daoist friend is cursing me or praising me.”
Gu Changge slightly raised an eyebrow; he himself did not think he had any great renown, having been a useless person just over half a year ago.
Xu Qing had indeed misfired with his flattery, choking on his own words when questioned like that.
Where had he heard of Young Master Gu? Of course, he was aware of the Gu Family, the prime clan of the Northern Domain.
...
But as for young master Gu, he had never paid attention to it; if not for that senior’s cause, why would he engage in conversation with this fellow?
“Cough cough… Young Master Gu surely speaks with a sense of humor.”
“I am Xu Qing from the Green Sun Sect, the Saint Heir. I believe Young Master Gu will not be leaving the Heavenly Cold Sect anytime soon; we could exchange some insights on cultivation.”
Especially when mentioning his title as the Saint Heir of Green Sun Sect, Xu Qing intentionally emphasized his voice.
Clearly, the imposing manner of the Saint Heir mentioned by Gu Changge in the square had quite hurt his feelings.
While speaking, he also somewhat intentionally or unintentionally displayed his mid-stage Ruins Realm aura, not knowing whether to show off or to convey that he was at the mid-stage of Ruins Realm, so he could share guidance with Gu Changge.
“No need for exchanges.”
“I prefer some peace and quiet. I am staying here only to wait for my wife to finish her inheritance.”
Gu Changge obviously had no intention of giving him face, and there was no need for it.
Before, on the square, he had felt that the other party harbored some malice towards him.
Although his gaze appeared amiable, Gu Changge still trusted his instincts more!
With his comprehension over three hundred and a divine soul far exceeding cultivators at the same realm, his senses were naturally more accurate!
Especially this fellow, who would occasionally mention his wife—if there was nothing to it, that’s fine, but if there was any ulterior motive…
Can saints from the Eastern Domain not die?
Speaking of which, the Senior Xue who followed him was a Ninth Grade Great Power from the Eastern Domain, and it would be good to ask him in detail about the Green Sun Sect.
“Does Young Master Gu know anyone from Central State?”
“I hear that Central State is the ultimate destination for cultivators, and I greatly admire it, though my experience is limited.”
“I wonder what insights Young Master Gu might have regarding Central State.”
Xu Qing followed silently for a while, and seeing that they were close to the arranged palace for accommodation, he couldn’t help but ask.
“I was born and raised in the Northern Domain; how would I know anyone from Central State?”
“Thank you, Elder, for leading the way. I’m a bit weary from the journey and will rest now.”
Gu Changge did not know the other parties’ plans, but he felt their motives were somewhat strong, as if trying to pry information.
Casually speaking, he had reached the palace, greeted the Sixth Elder with a bow and ignored Xu Qing, entering directly.
This palace was spacious, and all the Elders and Deacons of the Gu family were arranged here.
There were ten rooms in total, seemingly reserved for hosting by the Heavenly Cold Sect.
The Old Blind Man followed silently until they entered the palace.
Seeing his master approach him, he immediately knew what he wanted to ask.
“Does Senior Xue know about the Green Sun Sect?”
Indeed, Gu Changge casually asked, just as the Old Blind Man had guessed.
“Of course, I know.”
“Speaking of which, the status of the Green Sun Sect in the Eastern Domain is somewhat similar to that of the Heavenly Cold Sect in the Northern Domain.”
“It’s said that the founders of these two Sects were Daoist couples, though whether that’s true or false can’t be verified today.”
“But the true legacy techniques left by these Sects are somewhat mysterious, indeed having the capability of mutual enhancement of Yin and Yang.”
The Old Blind Man stroked his beard and simply conveyed what he knew.
“Tsk, so that fellow wants to steal a march on me?”
Hearing the Old Blind Man’s words, Gu Changge smacked his lips and smirked.
“Well, this old man shouldn’t say.”
The Old Blind Man, meeting his master’s gaze, hesitated in his response.
He felt that the Saint Heir of the Green Sun Sect indeed harbored such intentions, but as the Sect was a major force, if there was no need, it was just a thought without any substantial actions.
There was actually no need for the young master to take it seriously.
But he couldn’t speak more; currently, he was just a follower of the Young Master; if the Young Master decided to act, he only needed to obey, not to interfere.
Yet, thinking of Xu Qing provoking such a person with Great Destiny, the Old Blind Man couldn’t help but shake his head—why trouble oneself?
“Anyway, we are at the Heavenly Cold Sect.”
Gu Changge met the somewhat conflicted gaze of the Old Blind Man, smiled, and casually spoke before finding an empty room to rest.
…
Three extraordinary figures, like flowing lights with unclear figures, swept across the sky, heading towards the Northern Domain.
Two of them were at the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, one at Eighth Grade Heavenly Gate Realm.
The mere aura they emitted made it clear no one dared to stop them.
The three were Tributors sent by the Ninth Saint Heir, coming from the Holy Land of Immortal Ascension Sect in Central State.
“Li Si, is the information confirmed?”
After arriving in the Northern Domain, one of the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm men asked the middle-aged man.
“There is a youngster who knows some information.”

“The one from the Eastern Domain who wants to join the Saint Heir mentioned encountering the Gu family member who took in the Young Dragon at the Heavenly Cold Sect.”
“However, he hasn’t seen the Young Dragon himself.”
The middle-aged man, known as Li Si and at the Eighth Grade Realm, responded.
Although the other two were at a higher Realm than him, Ninth Grade Great Powers, he was a favored individual before the Saint Heir, without the need to show deference or to be seen as lesser.
“Shall we head to the Gu family or the Heavenly Cold Sect first?” the two Tributors frowned and exchanged glances.
“How about we split up?”
“You two head to the Gu family, and I’ll check the Heavenly Cold Sect.
“If the location of the Young Dragon is confirmed, we can meet up later.”
Li Si slightly smiled and suggested.
The two Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm men frowned slightly—heading to the Gu family was relatively risk-free, but indeed it was still a place with a Sage Realm’s Great Power.
As for the Heavenly Cold Sect, although there was also a Sage Realm Great Power, at least they wouldn’t tear their faces over the Young Master Gu with people from Central State’s Holy Land.
This fellow really knew how to pick.
But since he was the favored one before the Saint Heir, despite their dissatisfaction, they could only nod in agreement, heading to the Northern Domain and then splitting up to act.
