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

"Husband, how are you!"

Wang Yue couldn't care less about her identity as the Empress at the moment. After arriving at her husband's side, she grabbed his hand, looking him over intently.

Liu Qingqing was slightly more composed, simply meeting his gaze and seeing his slight smile, she was completely relieved.

As for the Gu Family Ancestor and Ye Qing, although they also came nearby, they simply watched silently without speaking.

"I'm alright, it's just that I almost died."

Gu Changge let his wife examine his hand as she pleased, and said with a light smile.

"..."

Hearing this, even Ye Qing, the Land Immortal Great Power, couldn't help but twitch his mouth slightly.

Quite the statement, "just almost died."

However, this young man seemed to be just fine. He didn't seem even slightly dirty.

"Ah?"

"Was it that dangerous earlier?"

Wang Yue and Liu Qingqing's hearts skipped a beat upon hearing this. They couldn't quite understand the situation earlier; they only knew their husband seemed to be in considerable danger.

"Well, it was a blessing in disguise."

"Breaking through three Small Realms, it wasn't in vain to suffer."

Gu Changge nodded slightly, without any feeling of escaping death, instead looking completely relaxed.

"But it did disrupt your ascension ceremony, wife..."

Saying this, Gu Changge looked at the Northern Domain Great Powers who had cautiously approached, and couldn't help but touch his nose.

"As long as you, husband, are safe and sound, nothing else matters."

"Even the position of Empress was given by you, husband."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yue shook her head seriously.

"Let's return to Central State early."

"Here, these Elixirs are probably of no use to you, so treat them as candy."

Ye Qing also sensed the approach of those from the Northern Domain, and as the crisis had passed, he naturally had no intention of lingering.

He casually threw over two bottles of Elixirs and disappeared in a blur.

Before leaving, he took a deep look at Gu Changge, thinking that if there weren't so many people around, he genuinely wanted to ask this kid whether he had mastered the Heavenly Punishment Power.

"Spirit Rank Elixir..."

Gu Changge caught the two Elixir Bottles with a gesture, and under Divine Sense, directly discerned the grade and effect of the Elixirs.

They weren't Healing Pills, but two bottles of cultivation Elixirs.

In truth, they weren't quite applicable for himself.

Rather, they seemed more suitable for Qingqing and Yue'er.

Yet his teacher was, after all, at the Land Immortal Realm, and with so many people from the Northern Domain watching, he simply handed them to him directly.

"Here, one bottle each for you two, consider it a meeting gift from the teacher to my wives."

Gu Changge just checked the Elixirs, and without even warming them in his hand, directly handed them over to the two.

"No, these are for husband's recovery..."

Liu Qingqing instinctively said, refusing.

"These Elixirs are not for healing, but to enhance cultivation speed, which is useless to me."

"They were merely sent to you two through my hand."

Gu Changge shook his head with a light smile.

Hearing these words, the two were momentarily stunned, but obediently accepted the Elixirs.

"Now that matters here are settled, let's return."

Gu Changge glanced at the Northern Domain experts not far away, seeing them wanting to approach yet not daring to disturb.

"Hmm..."

The two naturally had no objections.

Directly taking a step with Gu Changge, they returned to the Northern Domain Imperial City.

Leaving the Gu Family Ancestor holding a Jade Bottle of Healing Pills in his hand.

"This kid..."

"Oh well, as long as he's alright."

Gu Haitang put away the Jade Bottle, smiling slightly, showing no concern.

...

When Gu Changge and his two wives returned to their palace chambers,

there were several Eighth Grade experts from the Northern Domain Royal Family stepping out to manage the situation.

Originally, the banquet set for three days only required the presence of the Empress Her Majesty on the first day; the remaining two days were merely formalities.

Many Northern Domain experts, carrying shock within their hearts, once again returned to the plaza.

As they looked toward the Gu Family's seats, each wore an expression of awe.

With such an extraordinary Young Master in the Gu Family, how could they not prosper?

It seems that even if they went to Central State, the Gu Family would surely find a significant position, even expanding greatly in Central State!

At this moment, quite a few influences were already keen on approaching and establishing relations with the Gu Family.

In response, the Gu Family Elders were all flushed in the face, unsure whether it was due to happiness or the intoxicating effect of the Spiritual Wine.

Those Gu Family Disciples who had come were also barely able to conceal their pride and sense of accomplishment.

"Who would have thought the tribulation before wasn't Young Master breaking through to Sage Realm."

"But after this experience, Young Master has already achieved Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm Perfection, and it shouldn't be long before he truly breaks through to Sage Realm!"

"A Sage Realm in his twenties, even in Central State, you won't find another!"

"Besides, the Young Master didn't even start cultivating in his first eighteen years, and has truly only been in cultivation for under ten years, yet he has advanced from mortal to Sage Realm."

"One might say he's unprecedented and incomparable!"

"In the history of Central State, there's definitely never been a prodigy as stunning as the Young Master!"

The younger generation of the Gu Family, after drinking a few glasses of Spiritual Wine, unabashedly discussed the Young Master's splendid achievements.

Firstly, they were genuinely too enamored with the Young Master.

Secondly, although most present probably knew of the Young Master, there were bound to be some who weren't that familiar, and they needed to promote the Young Master's name well.

Those who came today were not without notable forces from the Northern Domain, even expert representatives from the other Three Domains attended.

They had to make sure that everyone understood the Young Master's unparalleled brilliance!

Wu Hen Monarch paced back and forth at the Sword Mountain's crucial location, already having prepared all sorts of healing spiritual pills in his hands.
