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

"Let's go."

This minor request naturally did not warrant any more discussion from the elder, who waved his hand and promptly vanished with her into the valley.

Heading straight for the Northern Domain.

With his speed in the Moon Unification True Monarch Realm, it would take no more than half a day to reach the outskirts of the Northern Domain from Central State.

Dongfang Mingyue also passed the message to her husband immediately:

"I am heading to the border of the Northern Domain with Ancestor to search for you, we will arrive within a day."

...

Nearly twenty thousand li outside of Duanbei City.

After receiving the reply, Gu Changge simply used Spiritual Power to display the content of the message in the air.

Allowing Dongfang Jing and the others present to see it.

"That's great..."

"I thought I'd have to hide here for another three to five hundred years before I could transform and return to Central State."

"Never expected to encounter... Brother Jian Chen."

Dongfang Jing could not help but get excited upon seeing the message.

During these thousand years, although he hadn't encountered any danger and dwelled above a Spirit Vein, nourishing his body by hunting Demon Beasts through the roots,

This prolonged period had left him incredibly lonely.

Even if he met Human Clan Cultivators, he dared not reveal himself, and he was also reluctant to kill Human Clan Cultivators to refine.

First, he feared trouble. If the person's background was significant and their forces came to clear the Demon Beasts, it would be dangerous for him.

Second... he was, after all, still of the Human Clan mindset; he did not want to refine his kin to nourish his body.

He initially wanted to thank Gu Changge...

Yet he didn't know how to address him properly.

This young man, according to seniority, was his great-granddaughter's husband.

He should be calling him Great Grandpa.

But in terms of status...

Brother Jian Chen had made it clear; the Sword Sect gave him great importance. Before even heading to Central State, he was promised the treatment of First Saint Son Peak and personal guidance from a Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect.

For a moment, he didn't know how to deal with this young man.

Especially since his strength was terrifyingly excessive; being in the Sixth Grade Refining Void Realm, he could sense the threat of death directly from him!

Even in Central State, he was known as a genius, but compared to this fellow, he seemed utterly insignificant!

"Many thanks to the young master for your assistance!"

Sage Jian Chen did not have so many thoughts; upon seeing the message, he immediately bowed with cupped fists towards Gu Changge.

"A mere trifle."

"One day's time… let's just wait here."

Gu Changge waved his hand casually; indeed, he hadn't done much, merely passed the message to Ming Yue.

"Great, Brother Jing, why not recount the situation in detail..."

"So I can help you analyze it a bit."

After acknowledging the young master with another cupped fist salute, Sage Jian Chen then turned to Dongfang Jing to continue the inquiry.

As he elaborated in detail, the others, with nothing better to do, simply turned into onlookers.

But at this moment above Duanbei City, several figures rapidly traversed the sky.

Among them, two were in the Sage Realm, one was at Perfection and the other in the Late Stage, both with formidable strength!

Apart from these two Sages, there was also a Seventh Grade Infinite Realm Perfection individual and a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm powerhouse.

Shielded by the Great Powers of the Sage Realm, they passed over Duanbei City unnoticed.

Presently, the strongest within Duanbei City was only at the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, lacking the ability to detect these two Sages.

Soon, they were ten thousand li beyond the city, deep within the Demon Beast Forest of No Master Land.

"This aura, it should be that Gu Family brat."

After stopping, Li Fei, in the Perfection Stage of the Sage Realm, used his Divine Sense to detect traces of a past battle in this area.

And with his Divine Sense, within a few breaths, he had located Gu Changge and his company!

"A Sage Realm Perfection, an Early Stage, a Mid-Stage..."

"In a moment, I shall engage that Perfection Realm Sage."

"The other two are for Daoist Fellow Zhang."

Having confirmed the targets, Li Fei was somewhat surprised; originally guessing that the opponent would only have two Guardian Sages.

He hadn't expected another Sage Realm Perfection old foe.

However, it didn't really affect anything.

After all, the other two Sword Sect Elders had realms that weren't very high, one Early Stage and one Mid-Stage, Sage Zhang in his Late Stage was not weaker than both.

"Okay." Sage Zhang nodded slightly. Although it was two against one, his realm was higher. It would not be easy to kill them, but to distract them wasn't difficult.

Besides, they had no intention of killing Sword Sect Elders.

This trip aimed to allow Wu Jiang Saint of the Ninth Peak to snuff out that uninitiated genius of the Sword Sect!

"Saint Wu, it's up to you now."

"We'll hold off the Sages, you finish the battle quickly."

"If push comes to shove, let the Wu Family's Ninth Grade individual act in secret – as long as no traces are left, no one can say anything once we return to Central State."

Sage Li looked at Saint Wu, speaking in a commanding tone.

Among the nine peaks of saints, the Ninth Peak's Saint was the least visible and most unstable.

This Perfection Stage Sage Elder did not need to show too much courtesy to him, especially since his support was for Saint Jiang of the Fifth Peak, whose future achievements would surely surpass that of Wu Jiang by far.

And so, he did not need to worry about future grievances.

"Elder Li, rest assured, even if this child is extraordinarily talented, he is at the end of the day only Sixth Grade in the Void Refining Realm."

"Between I and him, there is an insurmountable chasm!"

"In no more than 15 minutes, his head will be severed, and his life and path extinguished!"

Wu Jiang Saint Heir responded with a slight motion in his eyes and a modest salute.
