Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse-Chapter 64 - : Fortuitous Opportunity? Young Master’s Responsibility!

Chapter 64: Chapter 64: Fortuitous Opportunity? Young Master’s Responsibility!

Hearing the voice, Liu Qingqing looked over expressionlessly.

It was indeed the woman who had exchanged glances with her in front of the grand hall during the day.

Although it was also their first meeting, from the woman’s realm and her noble demeanor, it wasn’t hard to discern that she was the Little Princess of the Northern Domain.

“Little Princess, please feel free to do as you wish.”

Liu Qingqing’s tone was unfluctuating.

However, before receiving her consent, Wang Yue had already made herself comfortable by sitting next to her.

“Sister must have known long ago that he was not as rumored, right?”

As soon as she sat down, Wang Yue casually looked towards Gu Changge and asked.

Hearing this, Liu Qingqing’s brow slightly furrowed.

“Giggle… Sister, you’re not going to tell me that you didn’t know originally, and it was all because of love at first sight, are you?”

Seeing her silent, Wang Yue covered her mouth with the back of her hand and continued to speak with a narrow-eyed laugh.

“Little Princess should not overcomplicate her thoughts.”

“If you could treat your husband with sincere intentions, perhaps it would turn into a fortunate opportunity for Little Princess.”

Although Liu Qingqing felt displeased, she still kindly reminded her.

About to return to the sect, she couldn’t stay with her husband for long, and she had hoped the Little Princess of the Northern Domain could keep her husband company. But if she had other motives, that wouldn’t be good.

“Fortunate opportunity?”

“That’s interesting…”

“Why don’t you tell me in detail what kind of opportunity this is and what it entails?”

Wang Yue playfully blinked and asked directly.

“Sorry, I am a bit tired and won’t keep Little Princess company to chat.”

“But although I will return to the Heavenly Cold Sect in a few days, if Little Princess harbors any ill will towards my husband…”

Liu Qingqing didn’t spell it out, but her icy gaze conveyed her implied meaning.

Though the Imperial Family was strong, they still had to consider whether the Heavenly Cold Sect and the Gu Family might join forces.

Now that her husband was the Young Master of the Gu Family and her Root Bone Comprehension had greatly improved with his help over this period, securing the position of the Saintess was almost guaranteed!

Just this point alone was enough to make the Imperial Family cautious!

As for the so-called Little Princess of the Northern Domain, she didn’t need to worry about her.

Just like how the Fifth Prince, Wang Yu, was reported to have left for the sect early according to what those disciples of the Heavenly Cold Sect were told.

But she had already learned from the Elders that he was found dead in Wuzhou.

With her intelligence, she could naturally guess that this was definitely related to the Gu Family.

But what of it?

Now that she and her husband were Daoist Couples, they were in the same boat. The life and death of Wang Yu didn’t matter to her; he was merely a nuisance less.

Since the Fifth Prince could die… it wasn’t necessarily true that the Little Princess couldn’t be dealt with.

If she behaved properly, it would be good for everyone!

“It seems… I was just threatened, wasn’t I?”

Until Liu Qingqing left, Wang Yue then smugly muttered to the Elders of the Heavenly Cold Sect.

“Little Princess is overthinking it.”

The Sixth Elder of the Heavenly Cold Sect took a sip of Spiritual Wine and explained casually, without even looking sideways.

As individuals of the Heavenly Gate Realm Great Power, they did not need to bow and scrape excessively, as long as it didn’t involve the general strategy of the Northern Domain Imperial Family. The royal side wouldn’t cross them.

After all, apart from those real old monsters, each power’s trump card.

The Heavenly Gate Realm was already the strongest lineup openly in the Northern Domain!

Wang Yue, seeing that he was only embarrassing himself, merely chuckled lightly. After bowing slightly to the two Heavenly Cold Sect Elders, he turned and went back to his own solitary, secluded spot, occasionally glancing unintentionally at Gu Changge’s direction.

…

At the main table, this time Gu Changge didn’t get drunk.

That way, he wouldn’t have to have his wife help him sober up afterward.

After three rounds of drinks, Gu Zhan suddenly became serious and, after pondering for a moment, said, “The Second Elder should be returning to Duanbei City in a few days.”

“Hmm, in about half a month,” Gu Kuang seemed to guess what he wanted to say, his expression also becoming stern.

“Now that Changge has already succeeded as the Young Master…”

“This time when you return to Duanbei City, you should take him with you.”

As expected, Gu Zhan looked at Gu Changge and continued.

“His Realm is too low.”

“Let’s wait a bit longer, he should at least break through to the Reach Profound Realm.”

Gu Kuang shook his head slightly, not too willing to accept this suggestion.

“Back then, Jian was only in the Qi Sea Realm when he went.”

“If our Young Master of the Gu Family only stays coiled up at home, what would the clan members in Duanbei City think?”

“What about outsiders… what would they think?”

Gu Zhan furrowed his brows slightly and continued to persuade, “Moreover, it’s not like we’re sending him to battle Demon Beasts right now, since you’ll be there with him, right?”

“Can the Young Master of my Gu Family not even endure these trials!”

“Not to mention Jian, even I went through the same process in the past.”

Hearing his words, many Elders present also set down their drink bowls and fell silent.

Gu Kuang sighed helplessly.

Indeed, the Young Master of the Gu Family held great power akin to the Family Head, but he also bore heavy responsibilities.

“You should know something about this too, right?” Gu Zhan looked at Gu Changge and asked softly.

“Mm, I know.”

“In Gu Family’s nineteen cities, sixteen were developed from Duanbei City.”

“Originally, the Human Clan didn’t have as many cities in the Northern Domain as we do now.”

“It’s only through the years of continuously expanding our borders that we have been able to grow stronger.”

“Our Gu Family has been able to grow more powerful also thanks to seizing new cities, each containing extremely abundant Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.”

Gu Changge’s voice was very calm, and even… faintly anticipatory.

The so-called Duanbei City wasn’t actually a fixed city.

It was the outmost and external city of the Northern Domain; whenever they expanded the territory by a hundred miles, it would be designated as the new Duanbei City!

Regarding the promoted range of that hundred miles, resources and territories would be divided according to the contributions, shared among various powers.

To develop a hundred miles, it was necessary to slay countless Demon Beasts and force them to retreat more than a hundred miles without daring to advance an inch closer!

However, even in Duanbei City, it wasn’t only advance without retreat; although the Human Clan often held the advantage, there were also Great Demons that, needing to break through, would lead countless Demon Beasts to desperately charge at the human cities. Once they breached the city, it would result in endless Blood Food, a great nourishment for the Demon Beasts!

“Correct, but the current Duanbei City, due to being deeper into the mountains…”

“The Demon Beasts are also crazier and stronger, even Grade Four Demon Beasts have gradually begun to scale!”

“The Duanbei City nowadays is much more dangerous than when your father was the Young Master.”

“But the opportunities are also greater, the deeper into the Demon Beast Mountain Range, the higher the grade and age of the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures!”

“Even if not succeeding as the Young Master, the people of my Gu Family would still go to Duanbei City after reaching the Reach Profound Realm to hone their skills and fight for benefits for the family!”

“But now that you have already succeeded, by the rules, regardless of Realm you should go too.”

Having said this, Gu Zhan, worried about his concerns, casually added, “But you can rest assured, even if you do go, we won’t make the Young Master of my Gu Family battle with those Demon Beasts every day, and with the Second Elder protecting you, there may be dangers, but your life will still be safeguarded.”

After speaking, he glanced at Gu Kuang and, seeing that he didn’t interject, simply waited quietly for Gu Changge’s decision.
