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

Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Has My Wife Grown Up? Can This Also…

“After all, he is the Young Master, even the courtyard arranged for him is not the slightest bit inferior to the one at Gu Family.”

The spacious main house had a compartment set aside, only obscured slightly by a carved screen, and Liu Qingqing and Wang Yue were actually in the same bath tub.

This scene indeed left Gu Changge dumbfounded.

By his understanding of Qingqing, although she wouldn’t argue with Wang Yue, surely they weren’t so close as to bathe together?

As for Wang Yue, she always wanted to compete with Qingqing in everything, what was different today?

Although the screen provided some cover, the view through the carvings was even more tantalizing.

“Husband has returned, why are you still standing there, come join us?”

“Weren’t you quite envious on the road that Uncle could enjoy the company of two?”

Aside from Liu Qingqing’s shy exclamation, Wang Yue leaned her two soft arms on the edge of the tub, tilting her head and smiling mischievously.

“Ahem…”

“Then I won’t be polite.”

How could he refuse such an offer?

Immediately, he closed the room door and started walking towards the screen.

“Still say you don’t wish to?”

“Clearly, Lord Husband’s words are nothing but deceitful lies.”

Wang Yue giggled continuously, but then stood up from the tub, her hands guarding her chest as she stepped out with legs longer than life itself.

Before Gu Changge could feast his eyes, she waved her hand, donning the immodest clothes lying beside her.

“Sister hasn’t seen her husband in so many days, how could I disturb?”

“Husband should first attend to sister.”

Saying this, Wang Yue walked barefoot from behind the screen, water droplets sliding down her crystal-clear skin, leaving footprints on the wooden floor.

As she came out, she saw Gu Changge swiftly removing his dark robe to throw aside.

She casually caught it, and under his burning gaze, she loosely draped the robe over her body, her hands slightly wrapping it around, instantly hiding the captivating scenery.

“I’ll go rest first, okay?”

Wang Yue nearly brushed past Gu Changge’s body as she walked out, her voice slightly seductive.

A scent unique to young girls lingered, making Gu Changge marvel silently: who on earth invented young girls, they truly are delightful.

“Isn’t Husband going to hold me back?”

“Maybe, I would have stayed.”

Wang Yue said teasingly as she reached the door.

But before Gu Changge could speak, she had already slipped out of the room and closed the door behind her.

Her words were fierce, but having her actually join Liu Qingqing…

He probably wouldn’t be ready mentally.

Not until Wang Yue had left did Gu Changge step behind the screen to behold the enchanting form in the tub. @@novelbin@@

Her beautiful face was covered either with fine sweat or water droplets, her long hair was pinned up, but several strands greedily clung to her fair, swan-like neck, exploiting the water.

Although the water was filled with many colorful flower petals, whose names he couldn’t tell, the slight turbulence allowed him to catch glimpses of her straight, rounded legs slightly curled as if to block his view of more.

Liu Qingqing’s arms were slightly drawn in, somewhat bashfully trying to cover some secrets.

However, such movements only made the scene even more spectacular.

“It doesn’t feel like it’s been too long…”

“My Wife seems to have grown.”

Gu Changge stood by the tub, his lips curling into a teasing smile.

But indeed, he felt that she seemed to have grown a bit…

Was it perhaps that his previous efforts at the Gu Family hadn’t been in vain?

“Husband… Husband has traveled a long distance, you should also take a bath to rest.”

“I’ll go change the bathwater for my Husband.”

Liu Qingqing caught his insinuation, her little head lowered further, her lovely face flushing as she reached for her immodest clothes beside her.

“No.”

“Husband, I want a mandarin duck bath!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Changge immediately refused, casually stripping off his inner garment and tossing it aside.

Delighted, he stepped into the tub and sat down across from Liu Qingqing, leaning against the wall, and couldn’t help but let out a long, comfortable sigh.

However, a pair of soft, tender hands soon began to climb up his feet, gently massaging them.

“Wife, what are you doing…”

Just as he was about to pull his legs back a bit.

“Serving my husband is only natural,” Liu Qingqing said, biting her lip somewhat shyly.

“A Heavenly Cold Sect Saintess giving a foot massage—probably just me in the entire Northern Domain.”

Gu Changge simply didn’t say more, instead smiling and sighing in admiration.

“Young Master Gu of the Northern Domain leading a horse, probably only Qingqing in the Northern Domain.”

Liu Qingqing looked up at him, her clear eyes revealing the joy in her heart.

Her husband treated her well, and she, too, would not disappoint him in any way.

“Speaking of which, how did you two end up in the bath together?”

“Is there some secret you’re hiding from me?”

Leaning back, Gu Changge closed his eyes to enjoy the unparalleled treatment, casually asking out of curiosity.

“It’s just about some previously planned matters; she said if she didn’t want to trouble her husband, she could ask for help from the Imperial Family in Duanbei City.”

“Besides…”

“She also said that husband had asked the Ancestor for a ten-thousand-year-old Zhu Fruit for her.”

“And then the husband came back.”

Liu Qingqing blinked, naturally relaying everything exactly as it happened.

In front of others, she might be a cold and aloof Saintess, but with her husband, she was just a simple and obedient little wife.

“…”

“Goodness, it turns out it was a boast all along.”

“But that Zhu Fruit wasn’t specifically requested from the Ancestor…”

Gu Changge tugged at the corner of his mouth, knowing that Wang Yue wouldn’t seek out Qingqing just to take a bath.

Instinctively, he felt like explaining a bit.

Yet Liu Qingqing immediately cut him off, “Husband doesn’t need to explain, how could a ten-thousand-year-old Zhu Fruit compare to the elixirs and treasures you’ve given Qingqing…”

She also understood Wang Yue’s intentions—it was just to indicate to her that her husband was also good to her.

“No, that’s not right…”

Gu Changge suddenly furrowed his brow, feeling that something was amiss.

Looking at his wife in front of him, he suddenly had an epiphany.

Understood.

Bragging was not Wang Yue’s true purpose.

Why have a bath together just to boast?

Why not simply say it outright?

Her true intent must have been to use this opportunity to feel and interact with Qingqing up close, likely having discovered Qingqing’s Spiritual Body reaching an Acquired Spirit Body level.

This was to verify the reason behind her upgraded Root Bone back then.

But having figured it out, he just casually laughed it off. Compared to Qingqing, Wang Yue, born into the Northern Domain Royal Family, naturally had heavier thoughts.

But it wasn’t a big deal; as long as she was sincere, he would also find opportunities to help enhance her Root Bone and Comprehension.

Speaking of which, he had recently accumulated quite a few Attribute Points!

All thanks to his wife’s achievements in hunting Demon Beasts.

Just as he was about to talk about hunting Demon Beasts, the movements at his feet stopped, and those hands moved up his legs.

Opening his eyes, his wife had inexplicably immersed herself underwater.

“Hisss!!!”
