Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse-Chapter 399 - 229: Great Revenge, Saint Jiang Li Goes Mad!
Chapter 399 -229: Great Revenge, Saint Jiang Li Goes Mad!
“This is thrilling enough; continuing to temper myself here is meaningless,”
“Let’s head back,”
Gu Changge smiled helplessly, no longer intending to stay.
Originally, he had entered the Demon Beast Forest only for the sake of Attribute Points.
Now that he had earned enough, and even though he was attacked by a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm creature, the result was good; it was still somewhat stimulating.
“That’s fine…”
“Continuing the tempering here is indeed not very useful for the young master.”
“Below the Sage Realm, there are few who can threaten the young master.”
Sage Zhao nodded slightly, full of amazement.
With the strength the young master displayed now, ordinary early stage practitioners of the Ninth Grade Annihlation Realm were no match for him.
Even when facing someone at the Perfection of Annihilation Realm, he must possess the power to protect himself.
Unless it was a genius above the Acquired Spirit Body, within the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, there might be a possibility to threaten the young master.
Continuing to temper himself in the Demon Beast Forest indeed would not be of much use.
Without further delay, the group set out towards Duanbei City.
After they left, several Transformed Demons in the depths of No Master Land, which spanned a hundred thousand li, finally breathed a sigh of relief!
They had sensed the presence of a Human Clan Great Power.
Several beings at the Sage Realm already constituted formidable combat strength.
Originally, upon seeing the Human Clan fighting amongst themselves, some True Realm Demon Emperors were itching to move, thinking they might be able to take advantage if the fight was fierce enough.
Unfortunately, those Human Clans’ Sages restrained themselves.
And with the appearance of a True Monarch Realm Great Power, those True Realm Demon Emperors no longer dared to make any rash moves and abandoned any crooked thoughts.
They could only quietly watch them leave.
…
Before long, Gu Changge and his group returned to the Gu family grounds in Duanbei City.
Gu Kuang, sensing his grandson’s return, also took the initiative to come out and greet him.
The Gu Family Ancestor, however, had already concealed his presence; beside Gu Changge remained only the two Elders from the Sword Sect.
“Why have you returned so soon?” freeweɓnovel.cѳm
“Did you encounter some trouble?”
Gu Kuang greeted his grandson with a chuckle, inadvertently asking.
He thought the young master would stay in the Demon Beast Forest for a while, not expecting his return after just a few days.
“I did come across some minor trouble…”
Gu Changge smiled faintly but didn’t elaborate.
He had just arrived at the base when many Gu Family Disciples gathered around to pay their respects.
Seeing this, he simply bid farewell to the old man, saying he was going to check on his wife.
Then he paused in his steps, casually adding, “Tomorrow, I’ll bring you a gift.”
Since the Gu Family Disciples had gathered around, he didn’t want to attract too much attention; the body lying in the Xuanhuang Tower would be given to the old man privately tomorrow.
Lest under the watchful eyes of everyone, the old man would behave inappropriately.
After all, the old man was a Ninth Grade of the Gu Family, occupying a high position.
Seeing his grandson speak so casually, Gu Kuang didn’t take it seriously, merely thinking it was some minor trouble.
As for the gift, he didn’t pay much attention to it, assuming that his grandson had gathered some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures outside Duanbei City and needed to process them before passing them on.
Since the young master was offering, he wouldn’t refuse too much.
It wasn’t until he returned to the hall that he remembered to ask the two fellows from the Sword Sect, “Why have you only been gone for three to five days and already returned?”
“It’s a long story…”
Sage Jian Chen exchanged a glance with the other, both giving a wry smile, under the gaze of Gu Kuang and the Old Blind Man.
They then recounted the events that occurred outside of Duanbei City.
The two listeners were stunned.
“Ninth Grade?”
“Our grandson has killed a Ninth Grade?”
After hearing the two’s recount, Gu Kuang had a strange feeling.
It was as if he was hearing the rumors previously circulating in the Gu Family’s main city about the young master.
When the young master acquired the Cultivation Technique and the Heavenly Rank Magical Treasure, the rumor suggested it was an Immortal Artifact, and that the young master was a reincarnation of an Immortal.
Now, hearing from the two that the young master had slain a Ninth Grade, he felt similar to hearing those rumors…
“That’s correct.”
“There’s not a hint of falsehood…”
“Had the elder from the Dongfang Family not arrived just in time, perhaps the two elders from the Immortal Ascension Sect at the Sage Realm might have been unable to restrain themselves from making a move.”
Sage Jian Chen sighed deeply, still feeling a bit fearful thinking back.
The talent the young master displayed was indeed too heaven-defying.
The two Immortal Ascension Sect elders at that time might have disregarded the consequences and acted, and the three of them might not have been fully confident in stopping them.
Fortunately, a True Monarch Realm from the Dongfang Family arrived in time, dispersing the two.
…
Old Blind Man and Gu Kuang exchanged glances, both seeing shock on each other’s faces.
Even Old Blind Man’s murky and pale eyes trembled, seemingly deeply shaken.
To kill a Ninth Grade!
Doesn’t that mean that his true combat strength is now almost comparable to their own?
The Old Blind Man, after all, was at the Perfection of the Ninth Grade and perhaps a bit stronger.
But Gu Kuang had only recently made his breakthrough to the Ninth Grade; his power was far from as formidable as Old Blind Man’s.
“Our grandson is more formidable than us?”
Gu Kuang murmured to himself after a long silence.
At that moment, his emotions were complex and hard to grasp.
Proud and elated for his grandson, he suddenly felt as if he became useless.
Initially, he felt he could be of some help to his grandson, but now…
With the strength of his grandson surpassing his own, what help could he possibly offer?
“Daoist Fellow Gu, better not ponder too much. The achievements of the young master in the future… I’m afraid are unimaginable and astonishing.”
“The Sword Sect is the stage where the young master will truly shine; before long, the Gu Family will also have its place in Central State!”
Sage Zhao sighed deeply, full of sentiment.
If only he had such a younger generation!
He looked at Gu Kuang with envy in his eyes.
As for the young master, he didn’t feel envious; after all, the young master was too heaven-defying, beyond the scope of envy, and simply unrealistic.
