Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse
Chapter 548 - 270: Challenged? A Match for the True Monarch Realm!

Chapter 548: Chapter 270: Challenged? A Match for the True Monarch Realm!

"Mhm, since Saint Gu has no objections, then it is decided."

"Tracting the Spirit Vein will take some effort, but one month should certainly be enough."

"When the time comes, the Sword Sect will assist you with some foundational construction. As for the rest, I’ll leave it to your Gu Family to handle after you’ve relocated to Central State."

With no objections from him, Sage Wu Hen immediately waved his large hand, choosing three Elders from among those in the Sword Realm of the Sword Sect to take charge of this matter.

The three Elders, upon being chosen, also showed joy on their faces, stepping forward to clasp their hands and declare, "We shall follow the Sect Master’s decree."

Though the Sword Sect was spending wealth and effort on this matter, being in charge gave these three an opportunity to establish good relations with the Gu Family, which they considered extremely fortunate.

"Thank you, Sect Master."

Gu Changge did not waste words and directly clasp his hands toward Wu Hen Monarch in thanks, then turned to the three Elders tasked with the job and clasped his fists in a gesture of gratitude, "Thank you for your hard work and care, Elders."

"For the chance to alleviate Saint Gu’s worries, it is our greatest honor!" Those three Sword Realm Sword Sect Elders also beamed with joy, quickly clasping their hands in response.

Saint Gu was agreeable and easy to assist. If they needed his help in the future, or if their juniors needed help with their Tribulation and were not confident, they believed he would surely lend a hand!

"Still, this boy gets things done..." Off to the side, the Gu Family Ancestor couldn’t help but be dumbfounded at the scene.

He had already felt the few Blessed Lands gifted by the Sword Sect were extravagant enough.

They were many tens of times better than the Gu Family’s current location in the Northern Domain!

He genuinely believed it was special treatment from the Sword Sect!

Who would have thought that this boy, by simply visiting and incidentally aiding in his Little Lady’s Tribulation, ended up improving the Gu Family’s treatment from the Sword Sect by a wide margin!

Not only could they choose a Blessed Land Cave Heaven for themselves, but the Sword Sect was even going to allocate three branches of a Spirit Vein to the Gu Family. While it might not match up to the ancient Dongfang Family with its tens of thousands of years of inheritance, they now surpassed most of the first-rate noble families in Central State!

Without the relationship with Gu Changge, even as a True Monarch Realm Elder himself, he wouldn’t have been able to secure such a treasure for the Gu Family in Central State!

Moreover, situated within the Sword Sect’s domain, the likelihood of encountering danger was minimal. Should any danger arise, the Sword Sect would hardly sit idle.

Who would dare to invade the Sword Sect’s domain and exterminate the family of the Sword Sect’s Saint?

"If there’s nothing else, we’re dismissed."

Seeing that no one else had any questions, Wu Hen Monarch gestured with his hand, disappearing into the Tao Rhythm.

Most of the Elders also departed directly, while a few approached Gu Changge with clasped hands, "If Saint Gu’s family faces any troubles in settling down in Central State, just let us know, and we assure you it will be taken care of!"

"Certainly, certainly..." In response to these Elders’ kindness, Gu Changge also smiled and clasped his hands in return.

After he and the Ancestor left the great hall, they found those three chosen Elders responsible for the Spirit Vein traction and foundational establishment awaiting outside.

"Saint Gu."

"Do you have any particular requirements, so we can proceed according to your wishes?"

The three Elders brightened up upon seeing him and gathered around.

"There’s no need, Elders. Since the Sect Master chose you, I’m sure you’re all extremely experienced and have your own ideas in this regard."

"Just proceed as you see fit."

"If there are any uncertainties, feel free to discuss with the Ancestor."

Gu Changge clasp his hands in reply.

"Understood, understood..."

The three Elders nodded enthusiastically, then turned to the Gu Family Ancestor, who was beside them, and clasped their hands in a formal greeting, "If Supreme Gu has any ideas, please feel free to instruct us."

The current Gu Family Ancestor had broken through to the True Monarch Realm and had the title of Honorary Supreme, but in the eyes of many Sword Sect Elders, Saint Gu’s status was still somewhat higher.

His value far surpassed that of an Honorary Supreme in the True Monarch Realm, even compared to the actual Land Immortal Realm Supreme Elders in the heavy lands of Sword Mountain, he was in no way inferior!

"Much appreciated," Gu Haitang nodded slightly, without excessive politeness.

After the three Elders took their leave, Gu Changge and the Ancestor headed towards their own Fourth Saint Son Peak.

On the way, the Gu Family Ancestor couldn’t help but shake his head, "Without you, my boy, the Gu Family truly wouldn’t have had such an opportunity."

"Even though I’ve now broken through to the True Monarch Realm and have the title of Honorary Supreme, my say in the Sword Sect doesn’t come close to even a tenth of yours."

Hearing this, Gu Changge laughed lightly and said, "Ancestor, you flatter me."

"Flattery? Not at all. Even when I, in the Sword Sect, meet those Elders, it’s nothing more than a nodding acquaintance."

"But you see how those Sword Sect Elders look at you, their eyes shine..."

"Even if a woman was stripped naked and placed before them, I fear they wouldn’t have that kind of gleam in their eyes..."

The Gu Family Ancestor shook his head with a smile.

"Cough... Surely not." Gu Changge felt somewhat resigned at the Ancestor’s words.

As they approached Fourth Saint Son Peak, Gu Changge noticed a figure seemingly waiting for him.

As he drew closer, indeed, the person came to greet him.

Before Gu Changge could speak, the person clasped his hands and declared, "I am Zhao Chen, Second Saint of the Sword Sect, and today I have come to challenge Junior Brother Gu."

Hearing his name, Gu Changge immediately had an impression.

He had heard of the Sword Sect’s Saints but had not seen much of them.

Yet, why would the Second Saint Son Peak challenge his own Fourth Saint Son Peak?

He had intended to seek challenges to advance, not to cultivate at Saint Son Peak, but to provide a better cultivation environment for those around him.
