Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse

What trouble? It's not worth mentioning.

By the time I head to Central State, no one under the Ninth Grade could pose a threat to me.

"Indeed..."

Old Blind Man chuckled, fully trusting the young master.

He was extremely confident to an extreme degree.

No matter the situation, the young master could never come to harm.

Just like the last time someone of the Ninth Grade pursued him, the young master is truly a person blessed by extraordinary luck!

Even a Ninth Grade chasing a Fifth Grade ended in failure!

"But now that the young master has reached the Sixth Grade of the Void Refining Realm,"

"Isn't it time to consider the matter of the Holy Lands?"

"At the pace of your breakthroughs, it won't even take a year for you to advance to the Seventh Grade of the Infinite Realm."

"Once the young master goes to Central State, the Holy Lands will certainly vie for you."

"Choosing a Holy Land earlier can reduce many troubles, and it can also secure some promised benefits from the Holy Land in advance."

Soon, the two had already arrived at the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

Old Blind Man suddenly changed the subject to Central State.

"It's indeed time to start considering it."

"Which Holy Land does Elder Xue think is the most suitable?"

Gu Changge casually asked as he nodded.

"Of course, it's the Sword Sect..."

"I, Old Blind Man, am not doing this for any Sect rewards."

"If the young master chooses another Holy Land, I, Old Blind Man, will simply resign my position as Tributor and follow the young master."

"Choosing the Sword Sect will definitely bring the greatest benefits to the young master."

"Originally, there was some friction between the Immortal Ascension Sect and the young master, so we can rank Immortal Ascension Sect after others."

"As for the other two Holy Lands, one is Wan Hua Valley that only accepts females."

"Wan Hua Valley aside, if they find out about the young master's Acquired Dao Body, they might make an exception and compete for it, but I presume the young master would not consider it."

Old Blind Man analytically broke down each option.

Gu Changge silently nodded...

"Another Holy Land is named the Buddhist Sect, with many strict rules!"

"While it's true that they do not completely restrict having a Daoist couple, it's not suitable for the young master..."

Old Blind Man coughed, struggling to even imagine the young master joining the Buddhist Sect.

"It seems that indeed only the Sword Sect is the most suitable."

Gu Changge was momentarily stunned by the mention of a Buddhist Sect among the Four Great Sacred Lands.

"Correct."

"Especially now that the young master has become Daoist Couple with the Dongfang Family's legitimate daughter."

"The Dongfang Family has always had good relations with the Sword Sect."

"Many of their family ancestors have honorary positions within the Sword Sect."

"No matter how you look at it, the young master is most suitable for joining the Sword Sect."

"That way, I, Old Blind Man, can also bask in some of your glory, hehe..."

Old Blind Man nodded, openly admitting this.

"Then, Senior Xue, please find an appropriate time to contact the Sword Sect for me."

Gu Changge contemplated; it was indeed time to make early contact with the Holy Lands in Central State.

It would at most take a year for his breakthrough to the Seventh Grade.

Perhaps even less than a year.

He couldn't wait until he got to Central State to pick a Holy Land last minute; that would be far too troublesome.

"Can we tell the Sword Sect about the young master's Acquired Dao Body?"

Old Blind Man asked after a moment of contemplation.

"Of course, no problem," Gu Changge nodded.

"That settles it!"

"In a few days, Old Blind Man will send a message to the Sword Sect Elders, and surely they will send someone to personally visit the Gu Family to meet with the young master."

"The words 'Acquired Dao Body' are enough for the Holy Land Elders to set aside their pride and earnestly seek you out!"

With a confirmed response, Old Blind Man breathed a sigh of relief.

He indicated that he would take care of this matter!

After chatting for a while about matters related to the Dongfang Family, Gu Changge felt he roughly understood them and then took his leave.

When he returned to the Young Master Palace, he couldn't help but murmur, "Wan Hua Valley... all female cultivators, now that's a nice place."

"But better not..."

"Lest the wives be displeased."

The most suitable place for him wasn't the Sword Sect, but Wan Hua Valley!

Though that was just wishful thinking...

As for the Buddhist Sect, he definitely couldn't consider it.

With Immortal Ascension Sect, it was just a minor issue with their Saint Heir before, not much really, but it did leave a bad impression.

Just as he was pondering whether to continue his cultivation, he heard a system notification:

[Daoist Couple: Wang Yue, broke through to the late stage of the Ruins Realm, Reward: Sudden Enlightenment Pill (Ruins Realm) one, has been issued to the System Space.]

Seeing this, Gu Changge wasn't in a hurry to go into seclusion.

After about half an hour, Wang Yue came out of the Seclusion Room.

As soon as she saw him, she proudly raised her head and chest: "This princess has reached the late stage of the Ruins Realm; now I won't be dragging you down!"

Hearing this, Gu Changge just smiled, "Actually, Qingqing has also broken through to the late stage of the Ruins Realm..."

"Coincidentally, I also just had a breakthrough to the Void Refining Realm."

Hearing those words, Wang Yue felt like she had been struck by lightning.

She stood frozen in place.

Her husband's breakthrough to the Void Refining Realm left her speechless.

She had long been accustomed to her husband's heaven-defying breakthrough speed!

But Liu Qingqing also reached the late stage of the Ruins Realm?

And from the way her husband put it, it was even before her!

She had fallen behind someone else again?

Watching her husband's light smirk, Wang Yue suddenly rolled her eyes.

She walked directly to the main house, followed by a seductive glance.

She entered the house first and leaned seductively on the bed.

Humph, so what if the other reached a breakthrough faster.

She's the one who can stay by her husband's side!

She must outshine her in some way!

"Tsck..."

Gu Changge saw her gesture, silently stood up, and walked towards the house as well.

When he entered, a beautiful sight greeted his eyes.

...

A few days later.

"No more... truly, no more..."

"Husband, why are you so valiantly fierce in battle?"

Wang Yue exclaimed she could take no more, pleading for mercy.

"Here is an Enlightenment Pill, wife; you can take it to digest your cultivation's gains."

"Also, here are some other things that will help with your cultivation."

Gu Changge leaned against the bed, casually taking out the elixir rewarded by the system, along with items brought back from the Back Mountain.

After the Ancestor dealt with the Demon Beast, apart from giving the items to him, he also received some Spirit Grass, all casually brought back from outside Duanbei City.

"Is this a reward from husband for looking at someone's hard work?"

Wang Yue blinked, asking with a smirk.

"I think the wife hasn't been put in order enough."

"Hey, hey, hey..."
