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

Chapter 135: Chapter 126: Once I, the Young Master, bring you back, no one can take you away! _2

This had made him decide to leave only a few attribute points before their separation and exchange the majority for elixirs to elevate Qingqing’s comprehension and root bone. Additionally, it would allow his own comprehension to reach the major milestone of three hundred!

As for the Sudden Enlightenment Pill from the Ruins Realm he had just obtained, he planned to hold onto it for a bit, wait until he had enhanced her comprehension, and then let her take it. That way, with higher comprehension, the insights she gained would naturally be better!

Soon, Liu Qingqing’s long eyelashes quivered slightly.

When she opened her eyes, she saw her husband had already walked over.

“Congratulations, wife, on your successful breakthrough into the Ruins Realm.”

“It’s just a pity…”

Gu Changge approached with a chuckle.

“A pity?” Liu Qingqing looked puzzled.

“It’s a pity the Ruins Realm doesn’t allow me to be a kept man and enjoy a life of leisure; wife still needs to work hard!”

“As for me, I really don’t want to make an effort anymore.”

Gu Changge blinked.

“Mm!”

It was clearly a jest, but Liu Qingqing nodded very seriously.

She too wanted to work hard to let her husband be a kept man!

It was just that her husband’s breakthrough speed was somewhat fast…

“Wife, do you really think that?” Gu Changge was amused by her response.

“Isn’t it you, husband, who said you didn’t want to make an effort anymore? Then I will work even harder to let husband relax more,” Liu Qingqing said very earnestly.

“Wife, your words are kind of touching…”

“How about a reward of a kiss from you?”

Gu Changge was slightly stunned and leaned in.

Compared to Wang Yue, who would act arrogantly and argue with him, Qingqing was truly obedient and well-behaved!

Seeing him lean in, she unreservedly gave him a light peck.

Having just made a breakthrough into the Ruins Realm, she was already in a great mood; being teased by her husband made her smile even brighter, completely devoid of her usual icy demeanor in the presence of others.

“Jeez, a thankless wretch, waking up and thinking about escaping, huh.”

Gu Changge watched his wife with a smile but suddenly made a cryptic remark.

Just as Liu Qingqing was puzzled about why her husband would say such a thing, she saw a sneaky figure climbing halfway out of the window.

Feeling their gaze, the white-haired girl immediately showed her little fangs fiercely, watching them warily.

Yet to Gu Changge, this demeanor didn’t seem threatening at all, rather, it was somewhat adorable…

This was after all the Gu Family’s residence. Although she claimed to be a fifth-grade of the Ruins Realm, not to mention that he now had the protection of the Golden Lotus, if she dared to attack him, the Elder would most likely suppress her movement immediately.

Clearly, she could sense the presence of powerful members of the Human Clan nearby and dared not act rashly.

“Don’t be nervous; after all, it was this Young Master who carried you back from outside the city.”

“Not to mention saving your life, at the very least, there was an act of rescue.”

“Is this how you treat your benefactor?”

Gu Changge wanted to approach, but seeing her raise her small hand as if she was ready to attack, he could only stop and speak helplessly.

“If you have no ill intentions, let me leave the city…”

The little girl, somewhat doubtful but having not been harmed, maintained her vigilance while using a purportedly fierce voice—though her soft tone was anything but…

“No problem, this Young Master isn’t stopping you.”

“The door is right there; you may leave if you wish.”

Gu Changge stepped aside and pointed at the gate.

Husband’s words made Liu Qingqing slightly puzzled. This was a young dragon; was her husband really just going to let it go?

“Are you sure?”

The little one was also stunned, her small mouth slightly ajar as she retracted her ‘somewhat threatening’ little fangs.

“Of course, this Young Master’s word is final.” Seeing Gu Changge earnestly nod his head.

She hesitantly edged along the wall towards the gate, facing Gu Changge.

“But just a kind reminder, outside the city, there’s a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm blind elder wandering around looking for you.”

“You’ll be safe in this city with this Young Master.”

“But once you leave…”

“It’s uncertain whether you can get away.”

As she was about to reach the gate, Gu Changge spoke up seriously.

“…”

Hearing his words, the little one faced a dilemma.

Once she heard what he said, she knew immediately who it was!

She had seen that blind man!

He wasn’t tricking her…

She really couldn’t leave now!

“Do you also want to tame me as your mount?” the white-haired girl stood at the door, her Dragon Clan’s distinctive eyes staring at Gu Changge as she questioned.

“Why would you say that?”

“I, the Young Master, think flying with a sword is cooler, plus you don’t even look like a mount.”

Gu Changge gestured with his hand, indicating he had no such thoughts.

“Then why did you save me?” the white-haired girl tilted her head, her expression a mix of confusion and disbelief.

“Do you need a reason to save someone?”

“I’ve always been kind-hearted, isn’t that enough?”

“You’ve asked so many questions, why not start by telling me your name?”

Gu Changge realized this little one seemed quite naive, so he casually began to coax more information out of her.

The girl remained silent momentarily, seemingly contemplating whether the person before her could be trusted.

After a long pause, she quietly said, “Yuan Youbai.”

“Yuan Youbai?”

“That seems to suit your appearance quite well…” Gu Changge nodded slightly and then casually asked,

“But why are you in the Demon Beast Forest?”

“Northern Domain has no Dragon Clan.” Hearing his words, Yuan Youbai furrowed her brow, her gaze turning cold.

“They took advantage of my mother’s breakthrough, schemed against her, and now her life or death is uncertain, they are all chasing me down to tame me as a mount!” she said, almost gritting her teeth, her fingers clenched tightly; if it were not for the Dragon Clan’s strong physique, her nails might have pierced her palms.

“They?”

“That blind senior?” Gu Changge was surprised, not expecting this little one to have such an experience.

“Him?”

“How could a Ninth Grade dare strike against my mother!” Yuan Youbai raised her arm, wiping her somewhat reddened eyes.

These words also surprised Gu Changge, realizing this little one’s mother must be above Ninth Grade at least!

Seemingly overwhelmed by the stress of being chased these past days, she finally found an outlet.

Without waiting for him to ask more, Yuan Youbai promptly shared her recent ordeals all at once.

The sight of her grievance made Liu Qingqing feel somewhat empathetic.

She unconsciously stepped forward a few steps, Yuan Youbai watching her cautiously.

But she simply gently opened her arms and hugged her.

“…”

Yuan Youbai extended her claws, seeking a sense of security, but being hugged provided a warmth she had not felt for a long time.

Tears as big as beads uncontrollably rolled down her cheeks, splashing onto Liu Qingqing’s clothes.

Her lips parted and pressed together, trying hard not to make any sound.

She was very afraid…

“It’s okay, no one here will hurt you,” came the gentle voice of Liu Qingqing.@@novelbin@@

The little one could no longer hold back.

“Can you not save my mother…”

“I… I am willing to become a mount.”

“Little Bai misses mother…” She sobbed and choked, hoping to seek help from these two members of the Human Clan who had never harmed her.

But she also understood that these two’s Realms were not even as high as her own; how could they possibly rescue her mother?

Yet the fear and grievance in her heart could no longer be restrained.

“Don’t worry, no one will make you a mount.”

“Perhaps… your mother is fine too, after all, she might have escaped after sending you to Northern Domain?”

Gu Changge, seeing her state, was also somewhat at a loss, trying to console her.

Just then, there came an unexpected visitor outside the Gu Family residence.

Soon, a Gu Family Disciple hurried to the courtyard, addressing Gu Qianjun, “The Imperial Family and Wang Family’s Eighth Grade Heavenly Gate Realm, accompanied by a Holy Land Disciple of Central State, have come seeking the Young Master, mentioning something about an exchange… a dragon?”

The Isolation Array around the courtyard was unidirectional.

This conversation also reached Yuan Youbai, who immediately closed her mouth, her helpless gaze turning to the young man who had brought her back.

“Don’t worry.”

“Though I, the Young Master, might not be able to handle your mother’s situation for now.”

“But since I brought you back, as long as you’re willing to stay, no one can take you away.”

“If you’re worried, why not come along and see?”

Gu Changge gave a look and was about to meet that Imperial Family’s Eighth Grade Heavenly Gate Realm, and regarding the Central State Holy Land Disciple, he guessed it was probably Li Huaji again.
