Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse-Chapter 182 - 156: Killing Two Birds with One Stone, Figuring Out a Way to Take Down Liu Qingqing!
Chapter 182: Chapter 156: Killing Two Birds with One Stone, Figuring Out a Way to Take Down Liu Qingqing!
In the following days, Gu Changge hadn’t stepped out of the side hall again.
The Gu Family’s Elders and Deacons, on the other hand, occasionally discussed cultivation experiences with the Daoist Fellows from the Heavenly Cold Sect.
Of course, the busiest of all was Xu Qing from the Green Sun Sect.
Ever since he speculated that Gu Changge might have some connection with that Saint Heir from Central State, he didn’t dare to act recklessly.
Instead, he started making secret inquiries about this Young Master of the Gu Family through all his available channels.
He hadn’t realized until he looked into it, how shocking the findings would be!
...
“A little over half a year ago, he was a good-for-nothing who couldn’t cultivate?”
“Ever since marrying Liu Qingqing, his realm has advanced by leaps and bounds in a short time, and he has even become the Young Master Gu!”
“But how has he reached the Perfection of the Reach Profound Realm so soon!?”
If it weren’t for the remaining signs of Primordial Yin in Liu Qingqing, he would have suspected whether Gu Changge had discovered something unusual about her Root Bone during their marriage and stole it to cultivate for himself!
Liu Qingqing’s Root Bone was indeed peculiar, clearly excellent but seemingly not her own as if with a suitable Dual Cultivation Secret Technique, it was entirely possible to snatch it for one’s own benefit.
But the inheritance of the Heavenly Cold Sect could perfectly solve this drawback. If one wanted to snatch her Root Bone, it could only be done before she fully assimilated the inheritance!
Despite his greed, Xu Qing was utterly helpless at the moment.
As the news came back through his various channels,
he finally grasped the gist of the situation!
“So that’s how it is…”
“It seems it’s not related to that important figure after all.”
“Instead, he snatched the Young Dragon that many Great Powers and Saint Heirs from Central State were interested in!”
“Heh heh…”
“Worried over nothing; as it turns out, there’s no need for me to be concerned, someone will deal with him.”
After understanding everything, Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
He’d been so cautious in probing Gu Changge, only to find the young man was courting death.

Keeping the Young Dragon coveted by many Great Powers and Saint Heirs of Central State’s Holy Land by his side—wasn’t that just asking for trouble?
And through the news that the important person had sent a few days ago, it was likely that the Saint Heir of Central State had already made a move.
Gu Changge wouldn’t be able to jump around for much longer!
Even though the talent and speed of his breakthroughs he’d shown recently were astonishing.
A fallen genius is worthless.
Could he really surpass the Saint Heir of Central State?
Even the Gu Family might not be able to withstand it!
“If it really comes down to it…”
“Trading Liu Qingqing’s information for a future might not be a bad deal.”
After thinking it over, Xu Qing felt he probably had no chance of taking Liu Qingqing’s Root Bone for himself.
But what if he changed his approach?
The Saint Heir of Central State would surely be very interested in this.
This information was enough to earn his place under the Saint Heir’s banner.
With such thoughts, though somewhat unwilling, he knew there was only this one path!
…
Inside the Inheritance Tower.
Liu Qingqing had reached the fifth floor without realizing it.
Many insights etched in her heart, especially about the Heavenly Cold Finger Divine Skill—through the insights of past Saintesses, she felt she was on the verge of comprehending something.
If all went well, it wouldn’t take long for her to achieve Great Success with the Heavenly Cold Finger!
In the meantime, from the Tao Rhythms inscribed on the walls of the Inheritance Tower, she had grasped another Divine Skill.
“Master said that the longer you stay in this tower, the more you comprehend,”
“But why do I feel it’s quite the opposite?”
After comprehending the traces left by the Tao Rhythms on the fifth-floor walls, Liu Qingqing headed towards the sixth floor.
Perhaps it was due to her Pristine Dao Foundation, or maybe her Comprehension had improved,
She could quickly discern which insights were useful to her and which were not.
If this continued, she should be able to leave the Inheritance Tower in less than half a month.
…
Another five days passed in the blink of an eye.
Gu Changge simply asked if his Wife had left the Inheritance Tower and, receiving a negative answer, returned to his room to continue his closed-door cultivation.
That day, a figure appeared at the Heavenly Cold Sect.
The figure Xu Qing had been eagerly awaiting.
As the Heavenly Cold Sect Elders just began to inquire about the newcomer’s identity, they saw Xu Qing walking on air towards them.
With a smile across his face, he respectfully greeted the Eighth Grade Heavenly Gate Realm figure: “My lord, it’s been a long time; I hope you still remember me.”
“Xu Qing, isn’t it? Of course, I remember,” Li Si said with a chuckle as the greeter approached.
“It seems he’s here for Nephew Xu.”
“Could it be a Daoist Fellow from the Green Sun Sect?” The Heavenly Cold Sect Elder, although puzzled, became somewhat more courteous,
And gave a slight bow to the other party.
Before the middle-aged man could speak, Xu Qing was already buttering him up: “This esteemed senior is a Tributor who has come from the Holy Lands of Central State.”
Upon hearing this, the approaching Elder of the Heavenly Cold Sect was slightly startled,
Surprised, and at the same time confused.
How did this Green Sun Sect’s Saint Heir get involved with a Tributor from the Holy Lands of Central State?
And what business did a Tributor from Central State’s Holy Land have with their Heavenly Cold Sect?
“Fellow Daoists, there’s no need to be nervous,”
“I am here under orders; may I ask if the Young Master Gu from the Gu Family is at the Heavenly Cold Sect?”
Li Si waved his hand and gave a respectful bow towards the direction of Central State as he spoke.
“He is indeed at our Heavenly Cold Sect,”
The Elder of the Heavenly Cold Sect frowned slightly.
“Please come out for a meeting,” Li Si said, getting straight to the point.
“This… Let me send someone to notify him.”
Although Gu Changge was a guest at the Heavenly Cold Sect, after all, he was the Young Master of the Gu Family, not someone the Heavenly Cold Sect could summon or dismiss at will.
“Since you have come from afar, why not sit down first and have a cup of tea?”
He also gestured for Li Si to head towards the hall.
Regardless of anything else, the other party was indeed a Tributor from Central State’s Holy Land, and it would be beneficial if they could befriend him.
They didn’t usually have such an opportunity, after all.
