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

Chapter 177: Chapter 154 BYD Saint Heir, Ninth Grade Realm Followers!?

“So it was Brother Wang Yu.”

“That really is a pity.”

After a moment of silence, Liu Qingqing spoke unhurriedly.

“I heard that Brother Wang went to the Gu Family to seek Fairy Liu?”

“But, how did he suddenly die, and die in Wuzhou?”

“It truly is strange, the Northern Domain Royal Family just casually found someone to blame for the murder, but isn’t that too suspicious?”

“What does Fairy Liu think?”

As Xu Qing spoke, he stepped several paces closer, constantly calling him Brother Wang, but his expression showed no hint of sorrow.

“It’s just bad luck for Brother Wang Yu, who can guarantee they won’t encounter an accident.”

“I have other matters to attend to, Daoist Fellow Xu, please feel free to do as you wish, if you need anything, just ask the brothers and sisters at the door for help.”

After saying this, Liu Qingqing, unwilling to stay any longer, directly stepped away.

Xu Qing saw this and did not persist, only watching her departing figure with a smile.

His eyes gradually grew colder.

“The Primordial Yin is still intact, that’s unexpected.”

“That kid from the Gu family, it seems he truly doesn’t understand.”

“Tsk…the situation is not easy to handle now.”

“Wang Yu, Wang Yu, I didn’t expect you to ask me for the Dual Cultivation Secret Technique for this.”

“Too bad, you weren’t that fortunate.”

“Once he switches cultivation techniques, that opportunity will also be gone forever.”

“It’s difficult, but not completely without chance!”

Inside the grand hall, Xu Qing walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, secretly pondering in his heart.

He had come to the Heavenly Cold Sect today purely by coincidence.

Originally, Wang Yu had promised to exchange an Earth Rank Divine Power Technique from the Northern Domain Royal Family for one of his Dual Cultivation Techniques.

He said that once he returned to the Northern Domain Royal Family, he would have someone send the Divine Power Jade Talisman to him.

But he had already given his Dual Cultivation Technique to Wang Yu, and after waiting so long, not only had he not received the Divine Power Technique, but he couldn’t even contact him through the Communication Jade Token.

That’s why he made a detour to the Northern Domain, thinking of demanding it in person.

Unexpectedly, that scoundrel Wang Yu had already died!

And just now, upon seeing Liu Qingqing, he suddenly understood why Wang Yu had suddenly asked for the Dual Cultivation Technique!

He had his sights on Liu Qingqing’s Root Bone!

Liu Qingqing’s situation was special, her Root Bone seemed to have major issues, with the right technique, it could completely be taken for his own use.

But now the problem was somewhat troublesome.

Not only had she inherited the position of the Saintess, but today was also the grand ceremony.

She was already married, and her partner was the Young Master of the most prominent family in the Northern Domain. Even the Green Sun Sect behind him, though not afraid of the Gu Family, would definitely not want to make enemies with the Gu Family for no reason.

“Difficult…”

“But who knows if that kid from the Gu Family will come to the ceremony.”

“It should be starting soon.”

Xu Qing furrowed his brows tightly, unable to think of a perfect solution. After all, this was the Heavenly Cold Sect. If Liu Qingqing was in the Green Sun Sect, things wouldn’t be so complicated!

What was even more annoying was that if Liu Qingqing hadn’t insisted on marrying that kid from the Gu Family, perhaps he could have contacted his Master and directly facilitated their becoming Daoist Couple. Even if he didn’t take her Root Bone for his own use, cultivating dual cultivation with such a beauty would be delightful!

Soon, the time arrived at noon.

In the square of the Heavenly Cold Sect, desks were neatly arranged according to status.

Outer Sect Disciples only had the chance to watch and had no seats.

As for the Inner Sect Disciples, they at least had mats to sit on.

Moving forward, the Direct Disciples had desks.

The situation for the Deacons was similar to that of Direct Disciples, also having ordinary desks, but placed on a slightly elevated stage.

Elders were on a second step of the platform, their desks made of white jade, and fruits and Spiritual Wine were already arranged on them.

As for the third tier of the platform, that was the position of Wan Shan Taoist, from which he could overlook the entire square.

“I really envy… these brothers can sit down while we just come here to add to the crowd.”

“What’s the use of envy, better to strive in cultivation and become an Inner Sect Disciple sooner!”

“That’s true, if one could become a Direct Disciple, they would not even be inferior to the Deacons.”

“Still dreaming of being a Direct Disciple? If you really had that talent, you wouldn’t be standing here now!”

The Outer Sect Disciples of the Heavenly Cold Sect who had arrived early were discussing animatedly, while the Inner Sect Disciples mostly sat on their mats, occasionally speaking with the brothers next to them.

At the level of Direct Disciples, everyone closed their eyes to rest, not sure if they were pretending in front of their brothers, as they weren’t seen cultivating, instead appearing superior and silently disdainful.

After a while, the Deacons and Elders also arrived one after another.

When Liu Qingqing arrived at the venue, she swept a glance but did not see the figure she most wanted to see, feeling a bit anxious in her heart.

The ceremony was about to start, why hadn’t her husband arrived yet?

She decisively used a Communication Jade Token to inquire where her husband was.

She quickly received the response, “Soon.”

Those simple two words reassured her significantly.

Amid many envious and respectful gazes, she went to the position of the Direct Disciples and casually sat down.

The Direct Disciples nearby saw her approaching and were no longer aloof, instead actively congratulating her with clasped hands.

From today onwards, Liu Qingqing’s status would be much higher than theirs, not only as a Direct Disciple of the Sect Master but also as the Heavenly Cold Sect Saintess. If everything went well for her, she would completely have the chance to take over the power of the Heavenly Cold Sect, and even if she did not become the next Sect Master, she could at least become an Elder!

Liu Qingqing responded to them only with a nod.

“Junior Sister Liu, congratulations.”
