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

"Fuck, really fucking bad luck, really fucking bad luck!"

As the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm's Wu Family Head at this moment, he also couldn't help but curse bitterly.

Who would have thought that a small family from the Northern Domain would now be posing a life-and-death threat to his Wu Family!

Even...

Even if that Gu Changge arrived, and his Wu Family managed to successfully kill him within the Array,

they couldn't continue to stay in the Central State anymore.

They had to disperse and each strive in the Four Domains to find a new way to stand.

After all, Gu Changge was none other than the Sword Sect's Saint.

With a Land Immortal Realm Master behind him, if the Wu Family ran away, the other party might not murder them all like insignificant ants. However, if they stayed in the Central State, whether for face or something else, they would inevitably be crushed by a single hand sweeping across the entire Wu Family!

Unfortunately, this Wu Family Head didn't know the importance of Gu Changge right now.

He only thought of him as an ordinary Saint Heir, just with a little heaven-defying talent and stronger strength, but so what?

The Supreme Elder took him as a disciple merely to fulfill a promise to win him over from before. Could he really be that attentive to this guy?

The Wu Family Head went immediately to the ancestral hall to see the two Sage Realm Elders and ask if they had any good suggestions.

As for Saint Jiang Li, left alone in the hall, his pupils turned entirely black without a trace of whites to be seen.

He had clearly become demonically possessed!

"Gu Changge..."

"All thanks to you, all thanks to you..."

"But it doesn't matter, as long as I kill you, using the Array to refine your flesh and blood along with the essence blood of those Wu people will be enough for me to break through the Sage Realm!"

"And that True Monarch..."

"What waves could he possibly create within the Slaughter Immortal Formation?"

"It's just a pity for Miss Ming Yue... Pity for me, after this, I'll no longer have a foothold in Central State."

"To hide in the Four Domains..."

"No, why would I, the Saint Heir, hide in the Four Domains."

"As long as I, the Saint Heir, can attract the Sage Realm Heavenly Tribulation, dragging down Gu Family's True Monarch with me, die together, haha... die together!"

Saint Jiang Li muttered to himself in a low voice, his appearance slightly maniacal, clearly having lost his sanity.

His moment of breakthrough to Ninth Grade was when he became obsessed.

Now in his heart, there was only one thought: that was to see Gu Changge dead, crushed to pieces!

Even in his mind, he kept repeating this phrase...

He didn't plan to leave half of the Wu Family's bloodline intact within the Slaughter Immortal Array; he wanted it all!

All as a burial with him!

If it hadn't been for that Gu Changge, why would he have ended up in such a state!

And had it not been for the Wu Family being so worthless, failing to deal with Gu Changge even when he was in the Northern Domain, how could they have forced him into this corner!?

Besides Gu Changge, he also hated the Wu Family to the bone!

However, to get the Wu Family to cooperate, he could only endure disgust and pretend.

"When will you come, I can hardly wait..."

"Will Miss Ming Yue come too?"

"If she does come... isn't it akin to a love-death pledge?"

"Haha... Hahaha!"

It was fortunate this hall had an Isolation Array, and the people of the Wu Family did not dare to easily investigate his condition.

Otherwise, if the Wu Family saw this maniacal scene, they would likely flee immediately. How would they play this out then!?

Both sides wanted to kill him!

Especially Saint Jiang Li, who didn't even intend to live himself, he wanted to take everyone down with him!

...

Gu Changge's group was not secretive at all on their way.

There were three Sage Realm Elders from the Sword Sect, including Old Blind Man, leading the way.

Following them was the Gu Family Ancestor at the True Monarch Realm, whose aura was fully unrestrained, exposing a terrifying presence.

Gu Changge, who was already the focus of much attention, naturally caught the eyes of many.

On the road, he even noticed that some Cultivators in passing cities would distance themselves and pay respects to him - especially some Female Cultivators, their gazes seemed a bit improper.

"How do they seem to recognize me?"

Gu Changge asked with some confusion.

According to his knowledge, since his arrival in Central State, he basically hadn't left the Sword Sect, and the only time he left was for a brief visit to the Dongfang Family.

That trip was allegedly for a marriage proposal, but it was concluded within a day back and forth.

How could Cultivators of Central State recognize him?

"My lord... you really underestimate your current influence."

"It's no exaggeration to say that your portraits are now bestsellers!"

"Some Female Cultivators have even spent a vast amount of Spirit Stones just for a likeness of you!"

"During this period, quite a few Sword Sect Disciples have been making a considerable amount of extra money through this means..."

"After all, most of those who have seen my lord are Sword Sect Disciples."

"But I've also heard that even Elders have made it their business, and theirs is more professional, portraying lifelike images. A portrait of the young master can fetch hundreds of Top-grade Spirit Stones!"

Sage Zhao laughed as he explained upon hearing this.

"..."

This answer indeed left Gu Changge dumbfounded.

His portrait selling for hundreds of Top-grade Spirit Stones?

When did he become so valuable!?

"Don't be surprised; this is just the basics."

"Some girls from noble families have even said, if anyone can provide them the opportunity to meet you once, they're willing to pay a price of thousands of Top-grade Spirit Stones!"

"Tsk tsk, that's not any less than an Elder's yearly salary!"

"And it's all for just one meeting with the young master!"

"Considering this, us who get to see my lord every day are truly like wasting a lot of Spirit Stones..."
