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

Chapter 104: Chapter 104: The Young Master’s Heart is Really Dirty,

“Not at all, how could I let my clansmen exert themselves in vain?”

Gu Changge did not respond to the latter half of her statement, but shook his head with a meaningful smile, a smile that made Wang Yue feel a chill in her heart.

This rascal was definitely up to no good!

The people from the Heavenly Cold Sect were in for some real trouble this time…

In a shadowy corner nearby, a figure was still kneeling straight, just hoping that Gu Changge would not notice him anymore.

But obviously, he was worried over nothing; if it hadn’t been for him speaking out of turn initially, why would Gu Changge care about someone like him?

It wasn’t long before about twenty people arrived at the station gate after hearing the call.

“Young Master, aside from nearly half who are already out on trials, all who could come have arrived.”

Gu Qianjun stepped forward and bowed.

Hearing this, Gu Changge rubbed his chin and thought, although the family’s cohesion was undoubtedly stronger, the sect definitely had the advantage in numbers.

He estimated that at most, less than fifty of the Gu Family Disciples had come here for trials.

But the number of disciples from the Heavenly Cold Sect who had come for trials was easily over a hundred!

However, this did not affect his goals for this time.

“As you all know, a month ago I married Liu Qingqing from the Heavenly Cold Sect, and now she is in Duanbei City undergoing the final round of the Saintess trial from her sect.” @@novelbin@@

Since everyone was present, he calmly addressed the many gazes watching him.

“Do you understand? The Young Master means for us to help hunt Demon Beasts and provide inner cores?”

“It’s a trivial matter; during this period, all the inner cores we collected from our trials will be handed over to the Young Master to handle.”

“Indeed, only the Saintess of the Heavenly Cold Sect is worthy of our Young Master. How could there be any reason for the Young Lady to fail her trial?”

The people present were the direct lineage of the Gu Family, who had intended to challenge Gu Changge’s authority upon his arrival at the station.

But ultimately, it was all in jest; when it came to serious matters, they unconditionally supported their Young Master.

Moreover, they had already witnessed the Young Master’s methods today; truly, he killed without a trace, not only unfazed but also tightly holding them with the family rules!

Most importantly…

Today, the Great Elder solemnly announced to all of them, even including the Deacons present, a very important message.

It was simply a single sentence: “Any command of the Young Master, if violated… will be severely punished!”

Although they hadn’t explained much, it made everyone understand the family’s importance placed on this Young Master.

Coupled with his extraordinary experiences, even now among the Gu Family Disciples, rumors started spreading, claiming that the Young Master was never actually frail but was secretly trained by the family, intentionally kept hidden until now…

About these, Gu Changge was unaware, and even if he had known, he would have merely laughed it off.

Hearing their words, he smiled and bowed: “I appreciate the sentiments of my clan brothers.”

“But as the Young Master of the Gu Family, I will not only seek personal gains for myself.”

“How could I let my clan brothers provide inner cores in vain?”

Before his words were done, Gu Qianjun immediately replied with a serious face, “Young Master’s actions also benefit the Gu Family. If the Young Master’s wife can inherit the position of the Saintess, it would be beneficial for our Gu Family. How could that be considered seeking personal gains?”

“Right!”

“Exactly! Brother Qian Jun speaks the truth.”

“We are all clan brothers, Young Master need not be polite, just give your orders.”

“Even if it means matching strengths with the Heavenly Cold Sect, we are willing to stand with the Young Master!”

Even Gu Changge hadn’t expected such strong support from these people. As his gaze swept over the crowd, each one appeared genuine, not a single one unwilling!

“It’s strange… I’ve never seen a family like this before.”

“It seems that there’s a reason why the Gu Family has become one of the top three powers in the Northern Domain, making even the emperor wary.”

Looking at this scene, Wang Yue was slightly taken aback.

This definitely wasn’t a sight that could be seen in sects like the Heavenly Cold Sect, nor was it something seen within the Royal Family of the Northern Domain.

Even with power and influence, could it really make people willingly give everything?

The people before her clearly seemed willing, not at all like they were pretending!

However, Wang Yue couldn’t help but glance at Gu Qianjun. Had her husband just cooperated with him to bait these people?

But the words that Changge spoke next left her dumbfounded.

And it left everyone else puzzled.

“There’s really no need for my clan brothers to help out for nothing.”

“Please let me finish my thoughts…” Changge seemed somewhat helpless; he definitely had not planned for this.

He casually took out the list his wife had written down earlier and began to explain slowly as he pointed to it.

As everyone quietly listened to his plan, their expressions constantly changed.

They thought to themselves that it seemed the Young Master had indeed shown some restraint today.

How cunning must one be, to come up with such a scheme!

It was almost like outright robbery, but still definitely ensured that there would be no complaints from the Heavenly Cold Sect and it wouldn’t harm their own profits!

Even more… it felt like they were picking up a bargain.

“I think I understand…”

“The Young Master means for us to follow the people on this list and not stop them.”

“Is it just that whenever they engage a Demon Beast, we help them kill it and take the inner core, but leave all other parts of the beast for them?”

After listening, Gu Qianjun also summarized the Young Master’s plan and looked for confirmation.

“Pretty much.”

“In any case, there’s no need to conflict with those from the Heavenly Cold Sect; after helping to kill the Demon Beast, take the inner core and leave everything else for them.”

“If they stop, and if you’re confident, kill the Demon Beast, if not, just withdraw temporarily.”

“Of course, there’s no need to hand over any of the gains, including the inner core, to me; they are all yours.”

“If you really need someone to take the blame, you can directly use me as a scapegoat and say that I recently like collecting inner cores for fun, not intending to use them for Heavenly Cold Sect’s assessment points.”

“Even if the disciples from the Heavenly Cold Sect seek out an elder, this matter shouldn’t be a problem; at most, provide them some other Spiritual Medicines, right?”

Changge, fearing some didn’t understand, deliberately simplified his explanation.

“This method of the Young Master is indeed…”

“Useful, really useful…” someone almost blurted out but suddenly changed their statement.

If the Young Master remembered this, who knows how he would deal with them in the future!

“But… even if we remember the names, we don’t recognize those people,” someone suddenly expressed their doubt.

“It’s not a problem. I have already arranged for someone by Wife to wait outside Duanbei City.”

“He doesn’t usually do anything else but helps you recognize people; as soon as any disciple from the Heavenly Cold Sect on this list leaves the city, he will inform you of their realm, and you just need to follow someone with a similar realm.”

“Moreover, don’t be too strict; even if you are short-handed and let a few go, it won’t cause much trouble.”

“Just ensure that most of their gains from the inner cores are cut off.”

Changge had naturally prepared early. On the way after sending off Qingqing, he had already taken a person, but he also didn’t have time to explain everything to his Wife.
