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

"Sect Master, it seems that Saint Gu has encountered trouble!"

"Please, Sect Master, order several Honorary Supremes to head out for support."

Several Elders stood in the Council Hall, their expressions somewhat anxious.

"What!?"

"Saint Gu is trapped?"

"Who would dare to do this?"

"Wasn't he just supposed to eliminate the Wu Family? Wouldn't the Honorary Supreme from the Gu Family be enough? How has it become so problematic? Could there have been some unforeseen event?"

The other Elders in the hall were also startled by the news!

Gu Changge is now the hope of the Sword Sect!

Even the Sage Realm Elders wished they could cling tightly to his coattails, hoping he would lend a hand when they faced their own Tribulation, attempting to break into the True Monarch Realm!

Even if they wait until he grows stronger, he could even help others directly refine Heavenly Tribulation, ensuring that everyone in Sword Sect could successfully endure their Tribulation!

He must not be involved in any mishaps!

Immediately, Elder after Elder of the Sword Sect stepped forward, bowing to Wu Hen Monarch, "We beseech you, Sect Master, to issue an order quickly!"

"An accident must not befall Saint Gu, as it would be a loss our Sword Sect could not sustain!"

"We too are willing to lend our support!"

"However, since even a True Monarch from the Gu Family has been trapped, at least two more True Monarchs should be sent!"

One by one, the Sage Realm Elders volunteered themselves.

Even as they spoke, two Honorary Supremes present slowly stood, saying directly, "This Monarch is willing to help Saint Gu."

This was an excellent opportunity for them to curry favor with Saint Gu!

It was not easy to cozy up to him on ordinary days!

Although they were already in the True Monarch Realm, who didn't have a few promising juniors?

Who didn't have a few disappointing disciples?

Even if they weren't considering their own Tribulations, they should at least consider it for the younger generation!

Getting in good terms with Gu Changge meant securing their own future path of cultivation!

"Quiet!"

Wu Hen Monarch, hearing their clamorous noise, frowned and demanded quietness.

Suddenly, the hall fell silent, looking at the Sect Master with puzzlement.

Didn't they realize that an accident involving Saint Gu would also be too much for even the Sect Master to bear?

"Supreme Qinglian is currently not within the Sect,"

"Everyone mind your duties, no need to worry."

"He will not encounter any mishaps."

Wu Hen Monarch, seeing everyone quiet down, continued indifferently.

"Not in the Sect?"

"You mean, Sect Master..."

"Shh, so Supreme Qinglian went with them to the Wu Family?"

"No wonder the Sect Master is so composed."

"With Supreme Qinglian there, indeed we don't need to worry too much."

"It was we who were too anxious."

When the Elders heard this, they too were stunned.

The Honorary Supremes usually keep a low profile.

At least Supreme Qinglian has a full lifespan.

The rest of the Honorary Supremes usually remain in seclusion and would seldom leave unless there was a major event.

Unexpectedly, for a mere Wu Family, Supreme Qinglian had actually gone personally!

If so, there was no need to worry!

The Land Immortal Realm was almost a genuine Immortal presence, there was hardly anything they couldn't do in this world!

If Supreme Qinglian was there, there could be no mishaps involving Saint Gu, and their presence would be useless!

Sadly, this meant they would miss the opportunity to get on Saint Gu's good side!

Fortuitously, everyone also breathed a sigh of relief, since as long as Saint Gu was safe, there would be plenty of chances to ingratiate themselves in the future.

Even if they couldn't directly cling to Saint Gu, they could always get close to those around him.

...

[Immortal Ascension Sect]

While the Sword Sect was now relieved knowing Supreme Qinglian was present,

Inside the Council Hall of Immortal Ascension Sect, the Elders were livid.

"He's reckless!"

"How dare he?"

"Nowadays, who among the four great powers dares to touch Gu Changge?"

"Isn't this courting death?"

"Wan'an True Monarch, is this your exemplary disciple?"

"Isn't this messing up our Immortal Ascension Sect!"

"Especially knowing the background of that kid with Qinglian Sword Immortal, who doesn't know how vengeful he is?"

"Back then, just because a barely Eighth-Grade disciple died, he pursued and killed all involved parties brutally for decades, annihilating everyone related."

"Now that he has ascended to Land Immortal Realm, this kid is his closely-discussed disciple, if something were to happen, Qinglian Sword Immortal might indeed come kill into our Immortal Ascension Sect, how many lives would be lost then?"

Upon hearing the news, all the Elders' faces turned ashen.

Even True Monarch Bai, their Sect Master, looked accusingly at Wan'an True Monarch; he was Saint Jiang Li's mentor!

"This..."

"I didn't expect him to be so reckless, and he hasn't even approached me for half a year. I had no idea that today he would join forces with the Wu Family to target that Sword Sect's Saint."

Wan'an True Monarch shrugged, a hint of helplessness as he stepped forward and bowed.

"Bring that troublemaker back."

"Don't exacerbate the situation any further."

"Right now the Sword Sect is probably itching for a conflict with our Immortal Ascension Sect as a way to increase their influence."

"Also..."

"Take these two Elixir bottles to that young Gu Family member as a form of compensation from our Immortal Ascension Sect."

"We must not make an enemy out of him."

"In the future... his status in Central State will be unimaginable."

"Perhaps, he will be a figure upon which even the Four Great Sacred Lands will rely, at least until he ascends to Human Immortal, no one will be able to shake his position."

True Monarch Bai said expressionlessly, casually tossing over the two Jade Bottles.
