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

"Agreed."

"However, remember to spare some lives from the Wu Family; I would like to deal with them personally."

Gu Changge did not hesitate this time and agreed directly.

Jian Chen, Zhao Hai, and Senior Xue, all three had been following him for a long time and were trusted.

"Everything will be done according to the young master's wishes."

Upon hearing that they could accompany their young master, Jian Chen and the others immediately bowed and agreed.

While still useful to the young master, one must do as much as possible!

Otherwise, once the young master grew strong enough, so strong that he no longer needed the aid of those in the Sage Realm, they would truly be in a difficult position.

"In that case, let us set out."

"Please ask the two Daoist fellows to lead the way."

Gu Haitang was also impatient to strike the first battle for the Gu Family in this Central State!

"Understood!"

Jian Chen and the others didn't waste words and immediately soared into the sky, flying towards the outside of the Mountain Gate, turning into a streak of light and departing.

Gu Changge had not even taken to the air himself when the Ancestor's hand was already on his shoulder, and the other on Gu Kuang, the old man's shoulder.

In the blink of an eye, they were already outside the Sword Sect's Mountain Gate.

Even though Jian Chen and the others were not slow, they were somewhat unimpressive in front of Gu Haitang's True Monarch Realm.

After exiting the Mountain Gate, Gu Haitang simply used Spiritual Energy to create a cloud for the two to stand on.

Gradually, they followed not far behind Jian Chen and his party.

"The Wu Family is in the direction of the Immortal Ascension Sect, quite a distance away."

"At this pace, it will take roughly eight hours."

"Young master, would you like to use a Flying Boat?"

Seeing the young master traveling on a cloud after leaving the Sect, Elder Zhao took the initiative to ask.

"There's no need to trouble ourselves, this method will suffice."

Gu Changge was indifferent to whether he traveled by Flying Boat or not; his heart was already anticipating the moment his Attribute Points would be credited.

...

Meanwhile, in the Wu Family of Central State.

The two Sages of the Wu Family no longer continued their seclusion, as Gu Changge's fame had been growing recently, causing them great unease.

The Wu Family had been seeking help everywhere to resolve past grievances, but virtually no one dared to accept!

Even the Sword Sect... the Wu Family had visited.

However, after learning it was people from the Wu Family, the Sword Sect Elders directly denied them entry to even half a step within the Sword Sect's domain.

Gu Changge's status in the Sword Sect was now extraordinary, far more important than any other Saint Heir!

And now, the only one willing to help the Wu Family was none other than Saint Jiang Li from the Immortal Ascension Sect, who stood before them!

He had recently broken through to the Early Stage of Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, but what was this in front of Gu Changge?

"Saint Jiang..."

"Could you please invite some experts from the Immortal Ascension Sect?"

"That Gu Family kid was able to defeat those in the Ninth Grade six months ago; he's probably even stronger now!"

The Wu Family Head was extremely respectful to Saint Jiang Li, for he was the Wu Family's only lifeline now!

The Four Great Sacred Lands, the Wan Hua Valley, the Wu Family couldn't even come into contact with them, and the Buddhist Sect didn't usually wish to get too involved in such matters.

The Sword Sect...Let's not even mention it; Gu Changge was now the treasure of the Sword Sect, and they wouldn't even give them a chance to plead.

Only the Immortal Ascension Sect was the last chance the Wu Family could cling to!

But Saint Jiang Li before him was, at best, an Early Stage of Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, and that was a recent breakthrough.

The Wu Family Head didn't have much confidence in him but didn't dare to offend either and could only place his hope on him. After all, he had a True Monarch as his Master.

"Hmph, so what."

"With my Slaying Immortal Array,"

"Even if he possesses the strength of the Sage Realm, daring to come here will ensure he can enter but not leave."

Saint Jiang Li frowned slightly, a trace of chill flashing in his eyes, and within his pupils, a subtle black mist spread.

"But if we use your grand array..."

"Wouldn't the cost be somewhat too great?"

The Wu Family Head's expression turned bitter. Upon Saint Jiang Li's arrival at the Wu Family, he began to set up the grand array.

Even though the Slaughter Immortal Array was a Heaven Rank Top Grade Array, its power was comparable to a Heavenly Rank Top Grade grand array!

Even a Sage, if trapped within it, could only enter and not return.

A True Monarch falling into it would need several days to break the formation and escape!

But the problem was...

The Slaughter Immortal Array was too fierce.

Merely to activate the grand array, a sufficient amount of Cultivators' Essence Blood was needed.

Given the Wu Family's situation, at least half of the clan members had to be sacrificed to activate the Slaughter Immortal Array!

"If you think this is inappropriate, I shall leave now."

"When the time comes, certain doom awaits the Wu Family, leaving none behind."

"Consider the pros and cons for yourself."

Saint Jiang Li glanced at him with a slightly annoyed tone and then entered the hall without another word.

Only leaving the Wu Family Head standing there with a wry smile.

"Half... half of us."

"But if we don't do it, my Wu Family might not even be able to preserve a trace of our bloodline."

"Damn it, how could such a monster appear in the Northern Domain!"

"We lost two Elders of the Wu Family, and now he is even taking the initiative to come to Central State!"
