Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse-Chapter 282 - 189: Ointment, Jade Foot!
Chapter 282 -189: Ointment, Jade Foot!
Regarding the Red Robe Sage’s reminder, Gu Haitang merely smiled without saying much.
He had naturally considered these matters.
However, right now things were not as dangerous as the Red Robe Sage had described.
On the contrary, it was a time of opportunity!
As long as he himself could breakthrough to the Moon Unification True Monarch Realm, even in the Central State, he would be able to support Gu Changge, his junior!
Unless he did something that would force the Holy Lands to exterminate him, otherwise having a True Monarch supporting him, would be more than enough for him to cultivate safely to the Ninth Grade, so no Great Power above Ninth Grade would make a move on him easily!
As for conflicts with his peers…
Gu Haitang could not think of anyone of Changge’s generation who had the mettle to compete with him.
Sacred Body…
Not even Central State has ever seen a living Sacred Body!
Just the strength that lad displayed on the Back Mountain last time was enough to suppress enemies across two Great Realms.
Once he breaks through to the Seventh Grade Unlimited Realm, and if he goes to Central State,
It means he could at least suppress someone of the Eight-grade Heavenly Gate Realm!
Even if he encountered a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, not to talk of suppressing them, he would be unharmed just by protecting himself!
In this way, if everything went smoothly, there really wouldn’t be much danger, as long as he didn’t reveal too many of his trump cards, so as not to arouse envy from others.
And once the lad breaks through to the True Monarch Realm above Ninth Grade…
Then no one would be able to stop his progress!
“Hehe, there’s no need for you, Daoist Fellow, to worry over this.”
“The lad knows what he’s doing.”
Gu Haitang stroked his beard, smiling as he spoke casually.
This Red Robe Sage from the Dongfang Family was merely shocked by one of the lad’s Innate Divine Abilities.
He thought it was an Acquired Dao Body.
But in reality, that was just the tip of the iceberg for the lad.
His real trump cards, even I cannot confidently claim to know them all now.
The mastery of that Heavenly Tribulation Power alone is something other cultivators wouldn’t even dare to dream of!
“Nice words…”
“You of the Gu Family spirited away my Ming Yue’s girl. It won’t do if the lad dies.”
The Red Robe Sage twisted his mouth, speaking as if he were willing to worry over the lad.
Being no kin of his, it was merely due to the relationship with Ming Yue that he would remind him extra.
Moreover, from what he could tell now, Ming Yue girl truly had set her heart.
Unexpectedly, among the many heroes of Central State, none captured her heart, but upon a single visit to the Northern Domain, she fell for the Gu Family.
What a twist of fate…
“Daoist Fellow might as well come and rest for a while in the Gu Family’s Back Mountain.”
Knowing that his Gu Family had gotten the better deal, Gu Haitang didn’t argue further and simply took the lead to go, nodding his head.
The Red Robe Sage, seeing this, followed without objection and went directly to the Gu Family’s Back Mountain with him.
However, once he was within the layered arrays of the Gu Family’s Back Mountain,
His gaze involuntarily drifted towards the depths of the back mountain, precisely where the three black coffins were located.
“Unexpectedly, apart from you, the Gu Family has two others above Ninth Grade.”
“They seem even stronger than I had imagined.”
“Although it’s a pity that those two probably don’t have much lifespan left, do they?”
The Red Robe Sage spoke with a bit of surprise but soon calmed down.
“Hehe…”

“Of course, it cannot compare to the heritage of the Dongfang Family of Central State, but my Gu Family is still impressive in the Northern Domain.”
Gu Haitang was not surprised that the other could see through the ruse, as both were of the Sage Realm, the arrays could not fool him.
Besides, those black coffins didn’t need to be hidden too deeply; showing them off added to the deterrent effect.
If they were really hidden, who knows if people would think the Gu Family lacked strength, eventually leading to a desperate confrontation that no one wanted to see.
…
At this moment, outside the Gu Family Mansion, although many cultivators had dispersed,
Still, there were all sorts of discussions in the city.
“The Young Master Gu only had to take one look to replicate the exact Heavenly Rank Divine Skills?”
“If that’s so, his Comprehension is too defying, impossible!”
“Would I lie to you? I witnessed it with my own eyes outside the Gu Family Mansion!”
“Could it be that the two knew each other beforehand?”
“Miss Dongfang might have long been enamoured with Young Master Gu, intending to act out this scene in order to marry him.”
“To avoid awkward explanations to the Central State families?”
“Your words do make some sense, Daoist Fellow, but I feel it’s not an act…”
“In any case, even if he learned this Divine Skill in advance, it doesn’t change the fact that his power is astonishing!”
“You have no idea, at that time that one sword move made even Sixth Grade Refining Void Realm cultivators feel they couldn’t resist, yet it was easily blocked by Young Master Gu!”
“Too strong…”
“Earlier rumors claimed Young Master Gu had not cultivated for eighteen years; it seems to have been a ruse, deliberately hiding such a genius!”
The discussions in the city would not take long to spread across the entire Northern Domain.
However, the Gu Family would provide guidance…
To avoid causing any trouble for Gu Changge.
In the past, facing such matters, the Gu Family’s approach was mostly to suppress the news or reduce the spread of the message.
But later they found that this was virtually ineffective, so they opted for another guiding method, which was to exaggerate every rumor tenfold!
Like last time, it was actually a Heavenly Rank Supreme Treasure, but it was rumored to be an Immortal Artifact; even when it reached the Imperial Family, no one believed it.
This time would be simple…
Immediately there were Deacons of the Gu Family spreading rumors in the city that the Young Master now could even suppress a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm with but a single hand, no big deal at all!
The rumors started to become increasingly exaggerated.
And yet… most cultivators didn’t care about the authenticity of the rumors, merely passing them on as a bit of fun during idle chitchat.
