Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse-Chapter 74 - : Demon Clan Unrest, Leaving Early
Chapter 74: Chapter 74: Demon Clan Unrest, Leaving Early
Gu Changge, having finished his cultivation, glanced at Qingqing, who was still cultivating in the room.
There was no movement in the courtyard either, so Wang Yue was probably still not done with her cultivation.
Seeing that both his wives were cultivating so diligently, he naturally wouldn’t disturb them!
Thus, he tiptoed out of the room, planning to prepare some food for his two wives who were dedicated to their cultivation.
But before he could enter the kitchen, he heard knocking at the door.
“You little brat, open the door quickly.” The voice of Gu Sanfeng came from outside, seemingly in some urgent matter.
Glancing back, it seemed that his wives hadn’t been disturbed.
He then directly pushed open the courtyard door and stepped out, only to be pulled by his uncle as soon as he had closed the door.
“What’s going on?”
“Is there another family coming to propose a marriage alliance?”
Gu Changge was pulled a few steps before starting to walk briskly on his own.
“You wish, kiddo!”
“Wasn’t marrying two wives in one month enough?”
“I haven’t even found a suitable Daoist couple for myself!”
His words elicited a laugh from Gu Sanfeng.
On their way, he couldn’t be bothered to explain too much, and soon the two arrived at the old man’s courtyard.
“You’re here?”
“Not bad, you’ve already broken through to the Qi Sea Realm.”
Gu Kuang’s originally furrowed brow relaxed a little when he saw his esteemed grandson, and he praised him with a kindly smile.
“Wow…”
“I hadn’t noticed just now that you actually managed to break through to the Qi Sea Realm with that Yin Yang Brew?”

“One month’s time, from not being able to cultivate to the Qi Sea Realm…”
“Such a breakthrough speed is truly like a cow flying with a sword, soaring to great heights!”
Gu Sanfeng’s gaze towards his great nephew was also filled with envy, having initially thought that accumulating enough Soul-Shaping Pills for him to cultivate would be good enough, but now this kid was more than just capable of cultivation, he was practically a monster!
“Fortunate, it was just good fortune…” Gu Changge said modestly, waving his hand before asking, “Grandfather, is there something you needed to see me for?”
Upon hearing this, Gu Kuang’s face took on a slightly more serious expression.
He sighed helplessly and said, “I had been planning to take you both to Duanbei City for training in a few days.”
“But today, we received a message from our clansmen there, saying that the Demon Clan suddenly stirred last night, seemingly on the verge of revolt, and the cause is still unknown.”
“As someone at the Heavenly Gate Realm, I naturally have to rush back immediately, but it’s not suitable to bring you two along.”
“Wait until the disturbance is subdued, and then you and San can head to Duanbei City.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Changge was slightly taken aback. Since there was danger, he certainly chose to listen to the old man and stay at home and wait.
“San?” It was just that he suddenly muttered in confusion. Surely they weren’t talking about Wang Yue.
“What are you thinking about!”
“I am San!”
Gu Sanfeng’s mouth twitched as he raised his hand and knocked on Gu Changge’s head.
“Whose husband are you calling?”
However, following that, his own head was knocked as well, the old man glared and huffed.
“You are the husband… You are the husband.” Gu Sanfeng shrank his neck; in front of the old man, he was genuinely intimidated, remembering the times he had been beaten in the past.
With the situation being urgent, Gu Kuang no longer delayed.
“You two wait at home for news; I will go ahead to Duanbei City to defend it.”
Having said that, he handed a Communication Jade Token to his grandson and then prepared to take to the skies.
Gu Sanfeng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the old man was leaving, “Alright then.”
“Understood, take care on your way, and pay attention to your safety there!” Gu Changge put away the Communication Jade Token and slightly bowed as he spoke.
The words of the uncle and nephew duo reached the ears of the old man.
His steps paused, and he looked towards his grandson, Gu Changge, with a smile and a slight nod, “Good child… don’t worry, if I can’t even protect myself, how could I let you go?”
With that said, he turned his head to glare at Gu Sanfeng once more, snorted coldly without another word, and turned directly into a Tunneling Light that shot straight towards the sky.
With his Heavenly Gate Realm speed, it was only a blink of an eye before he disappeared without a trace.
“…” Gu Sanfeng’s face twitched slightly, questioning the vast gap in their abilities.
Treated as a “Good child, don’t worry,” but to himself, it was a “Hmph!?”
“You sure have a way with words, kid…” Gu Sanfeng could only shake his head helplessly, thinking that if he had even a bit of this kid’s eloquence, perhaps the old man would be kinder to him even if his cultivation was lacking.
As for Gu Changge, he didn’t mind those things; they were all family after all. Even if the old man scolded his third uncle, it was still out of affection.
But looking in the direction where the Tunneling Light disappeared, he couldn’t help but yearn for it.
The old man’s speed was much faster than his own use of the Body Technique Divine Power, to the point where he couldn’t even see how he left.
When could he breakthrough to the Heavenly Gate Realm?
It shouldn’t… take too long!
“Why are you still standing there like a fool?”
“If there’s nothing left to do, go back and curl up with your wife for a nap!”
“Tsk… To have one on each side, you’re really lucky, kid.”
Gu Sanfeng waved his hand and left the old man’s yard to attend to his own business.
No need to rush to Duanbei City in the next few days; he could enjoy some good times at the Gu Family for a while longer!
“Ah…”
“When can I really have one on each side?”
Hearing his uncle’s words, Gu Changge couldn’t help but sigh.
Although the two wives were getting along well enough now, there always seemed to be some rivalry and jealousy when they spoke… Possibly it was competitiveness, but to have one on each side, it definitely wasn’t proper at the moment.
After closing the yard gate for the old man, he planned to go back and make a meal for the two wives, who were diligently cultivating.
Just as he reached his own yard, however, he happened to come face to face with the Sixth Elder from the Heavenly Cold Sect.
“Are you looking for Qingqing, Elder?” asked Gu Changge, who took the initiative to greet with a respectful bow.
“Indeed, please inform Young Master Gu that the Sect has sent a message commanding everyone to return to the Sect immediately,” replied the Sixth Elder, his expression calm as he nodded slightly to Gu Changge.
The Sixth Elder had greatly changed his opinion of Gu Changge, unsure if it was due to his recent rapid breakthroughs, or the inheritance of the Young Master Gu title, but without realizing it, he had naturally started to address him as Young Master Gu.
“Please wait a moment, Elder,” replied Gu Changge with equal courtesy, greeting the elder again with a slight bow.
A Great Power from the Heavenly Gate Realm held one of the strongest presences in the Northern Domain, no matter where they were. It was best to make friends rather than enemies with them, especially since the Elder was one of his wife’s supporters. There was no reason to make an enemy of him unless he was overly arrogant.
As for the minor unpleasantness from a month ago when he had just arrived at the Gu Family, Gu Changge didn’t mind it at all; after all, they were considering his wife’s interests.
Entering the door, Gu Changge found Liu Qingqing waking up from her cultivation practice. Without unnecessary chatter, he said:
“Wife, the Elder from Heavenly Cold Sect is looking for you.”
“He says we must leave immediately.”
Liu Qingqing was startled upon hearing this.
“So soon?”
“Weren’t there two more days?”
At that moment, she felt somewhat unwilling, having thought she could spend two more days with her husband. Why the sudden change?
