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

"Would this come off as too arrogant?"

Hearing the grand and special proposal from Elder Gu Liang, some elders furrowed their brows and disagreed.

It was indeed a good thing, but could it incite jealousy and cause deliberate trouble?

"Arrogant?"

"It's merely stating the facts!"

"How could that be called arrogant?"

"No, that's not right..."

"Why not let the Young Master decide? Why the fuss?"

As Gu Liang waved his hand and spoke, he realized something was amiss, forgetting to ask for the Young Master's opinion.

"That's right, this matter should indeed depend on the Young Master's preference." Everyone immediately realized this upon hearing it.

They had been too excited and had overstepped.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Gu Changge simply smiled lightly and said casually to the Family Head, "Such matters should trouble Grandfather, and all depends on Grandfather's decision."

He was too lazy to waste energy on these matters.

Hearing his words, Gu Zhan was slightly startled and gave him a look.

Many elders also turned their gaze towards Gu Zhan, the silent Family Head.

Feeling the weight of their stares, Gu Zhan slightly regained some of his presence as the Family Head.

He cleared his throat slightly, "Indeed, a big celebration is in order."

"Now that the Gu Family's Young Master has joined the Central State Sword Sect and attained the position of Saint Heir, how could we not celebrate grandly?"

"Moreover, with the Young Master as such, why should the Gu Family be apprehensive?"

"Even if some people become jealous, what does it matter, can they act recklessly in front of this senior from Sword Sect?"

Originally unconcerned and merely happy about successfully recruiting this Extreme Dao Body genius into the Sword Sect, Sage Jian Chen.

Hearing himself mentioned, he quickly put on a serious face and said, "Naturally, since he has joined my Sword Sect, it's my duty as Elder to ensure the Saint's safety!"

These words were true; his latest instructions from the sect were to protect this Quasi-Saint, en route to Central State, and ensure his safety.

If anything were to happen to Gu Changge before his departure to Central State, he would surely be in big trouble!

A great merit would then turn into a great demerit!

"Speaking of which... there's another matter I need help with."

Seeing the Family Head and elders discussing the banquet for the Northern Domain, Gu Changge also took the opportunity to speak to Sage Jian Chen.

"Saint need only speak, there's no harm," Jian Chen motioned with a slight raising of his hand.

Though Gu Changge didn't have a confirmed position on Saint Peak, his identity as a Quasi-Saint was secured.

Moreover, his demonstrated genius was even more heaven-defying than the one on First Saint Son Peak, and his future achievements would likely be even more brilliant!

Building a good rapport with him earlier would be serendipitous!

This trip to the Northern Domain was indeed a valuable task...

Helping this heaven-defying genius with some minor matters might be a tremendous fortune for himself in the future.

"Senior should be aware that the third Daoist Couple of this Young Master is a Young Dragon that escaped from Central State."

"Now its mother is coveted by many, desiring her life."

"I wonder if the Sword Sect could help resolve this matter?"

Gu Changge said seriously.

He had not forgotten the promise to Little Hanhan.

Only that, with people from all Four Great Sacred Lands present earlier, and he could only join one of them.

Revealing his need for help could be disadvantageous for himself, potentially provoking anger from the others due to his refusal, and they might use it against him.

So, he had waited until now, having confirmed his joining of the Sword Sect, before mentioning it.

"This matter..."

"I have indeed heard a bit about it."

"Since the Saint has requested this, Sword Sect has no reason to refuse."

"But... the Saint must also understand, even if Sword Sect can stop all involved disciples and Tributor Elders from coveting that True Dragon."

"We ultimately can't control the other three Sacred Lands."

"If the Saint needs it, the sect can also send people to try to prevent the matter, but... the results might not satisfy the Saint."

Hearing this, Jian Chen frowned slightly. Although he agreed, it was also somewhat difficult for him.

Matters related to Sword Sect were easier to handle.

But this issue involved powers beyond Sword Sect, including other Sacred Lands, and even some forces outside of Sacred Lands were keenly watching.

They could keep an eye, but might not completely control.

"To be frank, I've also heard some rumors, including the Ninth Saint from the Immortal Ascension Sect who has gathered a group to set up an Array, creating the aura of the Saint's third wife to lure the True Dragon."

"This matter, Sword Sect likely has people involved too..."

"Since the Saint has mentioned it today, I will certainly inform the sect at once, trying my best to prevent this."

After hesitating a moment, Sage Jian Chen still revealed what he knew.

"This Young Master has already planned for this."

"Just as the senior said, we can manage our own people, but ultimately not others."

"Thus, this Young Master does not ask too much of Sword Sect."

"Just try to help spread the message that Yuan Youbai has become Daoist Couple with the Sword Sect Saint, before it can lure out the True Dragon. That would be enough."

"If an accident really occurs and someone lures out the True Dragon, I would also ask Sword Sect to help protect her life. Whatever the cost may be, I will repay it later."

Gu Changge listened to his words and was not surprised.

Dongfang Mingyue had already informed him of this intelligence.

During this period, he had already made thorough plans in his mind.

"In that case, there should be no problem."

"I will send the message back to Sword Sect today, and I believe the sect will take great care of it."
