Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse-Chapter 398 - 228: On the Edge of Life and Death, Clothes Slightly Dirty!_3

Chapter 398 -228: On the Edge of Life and Death, Clothes Slightly Dirty!_3

Unprecedented in history, unmatched by any to come, can’t you speak a bit more confidently!

“…”

Despite being Dongfang Mingyue, even she couldn’t help but purse her lips upon hearing his words.

She completely believed what the great grandfather had said.

The husband she had recently met, with whom she had barely exchanged a few words, had actually managed to kill a Ninth Grade from the Sixth Grade Realm by transcending three realms.

“How did you do it?” after a long silence, she asked Gu Changge earnestly, her eyes somewhat bright.

Gu Changge stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and said casually, “Just… suppressed him effortlessly. That old fellow perished and self-destructed, leaving only his slightly dirty garments as a testament to his not insignificant capabilities.”

“Cough… the truth!”

Sage Jian Chen’s mouth twitched, but he couldn’t help but vouch for the young master.

“This realm of yours… shouldn’t you have advanced a bit too quickly?”

Dongfang Mingyue had finally calmed her heart, but upon sensing the Perfection aura of the Refining Void Realm exuding from him, she couldn’t help but speak again.

How long had it been since they last met, at most half a year?

When she first visited to challenge him, he was only at the Fifth-grade Ruins Realm.

Now, he had startlingly reached the Perfection of the Sixth Grade Void Refining Realm!

Even surpassing her by a Small Realm, who could endure this!?

She wanted to find a powerful Daoist couple because her own talent was also exceptional. If her Daoist partner wasn’t strong enough, he simply wouldn’t be able to keep up with the speed of her future breakthroughs, inevitably leading to a gap.

But now…

Looking at Gu Changge in front of her, she even felt somewhat inferior.

At this rate, wouldn’t the gap widen, only this time she would be the one left behind?

“This proves, I have cultivated more diligently than my wife.”

“In these past six months, I have been on the verge of life and death every day, so this speed of breakthrough is indeed earned.”

Gu Changge looked up at the horizon, his tone serious.

Listening to him, even Dongfang Mingyue was taken aback.

Yes…

What exactly had he experienced in this half-year?

What kind of perilous experiences could have enabled him to break through to the Perfection of the Void Refining Realm in just six months, probably true as he said, living every day on the edge of life and death?

Led by Gu Changge’s words and fueled by her own imaginations, when she looked at him again, her regard had changed.

With some admiration and a bit of worry.

Watching Dongfang Mingyue’s complex gaze, the three Sages present exchanged looks and remained silent.

Even the forthright Sage Jian Chen turned his head away, unable to watch.

Edge of life and death?

What he went through during these six months was unknown to others, but they were well aware.

The Young Master hadn’t even left the Gu Family Mansion!

It was only a few days ago that he had left the mansion to visit the Northern Territory Imperial City, and even facing the Northern Domain Emperor, there had been no real danger.

The three Sages standing beside him ensured that even the two Ancestors of the Northern Domain Royal Family dared not make any unfavorable moves.

If one must speak of life-and-death danger…

It had only been during the recent encounter with the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm Great Power from the Wu Family that could be termed dangerous.

But what was the result?

With only his garments slightly soiled… he had slain the opponent.

Though the process was indeed perilous, the outcome could hardly be described as teetering on the edge of life and death!

“This youngster…”

The Gu Family Ancestor glanced at him, silently giving him a thumbs up in his heart.

Not only is he tremendously powerful, but he also spins lies effortlessly—what a skill indeed!

“Little girl, if you’re done talking, let’s go.”

The voice of the Elder from the Dongfang Family came.

He had come to the Northern Domain this time just to bring back Dongfang Jing.

Furthermore, staying in the Northern Domain made him uncomfortable as a True Monarch.

The Spiritual Energy was too sparse; if a True Monarch were to stay long in the Northern Domain, not to mention cultivating, there might even be a loss in Spiritual Energy.

“When do you plan to come to Central State to marry me?”

Hearing the Ancestor’s words, Dongfang Mingyue fell silent for a moment before asking seriously.

“Once I break through to the Seventh Grade Infinite Realm, I will head to Central State.”

“Probably, just these two more months.”

Gu Changge didn’t hesitate and gave a direct answer.

“Then, I shall wait for you at home!”

Hearing it was only two months away, Dongfang Mingyue showed a satisfied smile, gave him a deep look, and then lightly tapped her toes and soared into the air.

Above, the Elder from the Dongfang Family was already waiting with Dongfang Jing, who was in his Tree Spirit form.

Although he was in the form of a Tree Spirit, he was not immobile; after all, he was an Eighth Grade entity, only moving slower, perhaps not even as fast as a Seventh Grade Cultivator or Demon Beast.

Now, with the Ancestor leading, they could directly return to Central State.

“Let’s go.”

The True Monarch Ancestor from the Dongfang Family stared at Gu Changge for a moment.

Once Ming Yue was back by his side, he took with him one person and one Tree Spirit, and in an instant, they were gone without a trace.

Seeing this, the two Elders from the Sword Sect also slightly bowed and showed their respect.

This True Monarch from the Dongfang Family held an honorary position even within the Sword Sect.

Honorary Supreme Elder, although he usually did not interfere in the affairs of the Sword Sect and had no overt power,

but after all, he was a Monarch Realm Great Power, and his status within the Sword Sect was much higher than these Elders!

That elder seems to appreciate the Young Master quite a bit.”

Sage Zhao spoke only after they had disappeared.

“Understandably, with the Young Master’s capabilities, once he arrives at the Sword Sect, I wouldn’t be surprised if he causes even the reclusive Supreme Elders to all come out!”

“Competing to instruct the Young Master…”

Sage Jian Chen nodded slightly, feeling extremely fortunate in his heart that he had made the right choice upon witnessing the Young Master’s true strength today.

This decision to follow the Young Master might just change everything for him in the future…

“Will you continue your trials?”

Gu Haitang’s eyes shifted slightly at this moment; he knew exactly why this youngster wanted to come to the Demon Beast Forest for trials.

It was for the Life Origin that could condense into Elixirs.

And he had just personally slain a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm expert, likely reaping a considerable harvest!

After all, just a Seventh Grade Unlimited Realm Demon Beast could grant him sources enough to exchange for several Elixirs—let alone a Ninth Grade… the Gu Family Ancestor couldn’t even fathom how massive the youngster’s gains might be.
