However, on further thought, the Young Master was able to escape from the hands of a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, it seed nothing was unacceptable anymore.
...
In the room.
Faced with his wife's undying concern, Gu Changge simply smiled and gently stroked her hair.
"Don't worry, I really am fine."
"Not only am I fine, my Divine Soul has greatly improved."
"It's a fortune gained from disaster."
Hearing him say this, Liu Qingqing stared intently into his eyes, fearing he was putting on a brave front to deceive her.
After looking for a long while, she finally believed him.
But even now, she couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.
"I just don't know if that Holy Land's Saint Heir will cause trouble for Husband in the future..."
Despite Husband being unhard for the mont, she still murmured with a worried frown.
"It won't happen."
Gu Changge shook his head.
"How can Husband be so sure?" Liu Qingqing instinctively asked.
"Because if nothing goes wrong, it's going to be seeking trouble from him, not the other way around."
Gu Changge spoke calmly.
Although he had agreed with the Heavenly Cold Sect Master's suggestion in the main hall—that if the Saint Heir indeed sought to stir up trouble over this incident, both families would respond together—
Whether it was the recent pursuit, the coveting of his wife's Root Bone, or the last-ditch attempt by Li Si to drag him down with himself,
Gu Changge had secretly taken note of this Ninth Saint Heir of the Immortal Ascension Sect in his heart.
He had originally taken cultivation at his own pace,
Not seeking to enhance his strength too quickly.
But today's events taught him that while he could wait, there were always so who could not.
Now that he had the ability, he would strengthen himself as quickly as possible!
To beco so powerful that no one would dare harbor any thoughts against him!
He glanced at his current panel:
[Attribute Points: 108560]
A whole hundred thousand attribute points!
These points were sufficient for his rapid rise!
He hadn't intended to interact with the forces from Central State so soon, but current circumstances might not allow him to stick to the original plan. He had no desire to provoke the powers of Central State, but they might not let him be.
"No matter what, I will stand by Husband's side."
Liu Qingqing looked at him for a long ti. What he was saying seed so unrealistic; he had only just broken through to the early stage of the Ruins Realm, and yet he dared to speak of targeting the Saint Heir of the Central State's Holy Land.
Nevertheless, she unconditionally supported all of Husband's choices.
"Wife, when do you plan to go into seclusion?"
Gu Changge didn't continue to ponder those matters and looked at her as he asked.
"In a few days... after Husband's injuries are healed."
Originally, she had intended to start her seclusion after watching Husband's competition.
But she hadn't expected so many unexpected events, and with her current state of mind unsettled, it wasn't suitable to enter seclusion.
"That's good..."
Gu Changge nodded slightly.
"Husband should focus on healing first."
Looking at the burn on Husband's back, Liu Qingqing said with a heartache.
Gu Changge didn't linger on the subject, he sat cross-legged and began operating his Cultivation Technique to guide the Healing Elixir his wife had fed him, starting the healing process.
His injuries weren't serious to begin with, just so superficial wounds. If he focused on healing, they would heal in just three to five days.
On the other hand, the Old Blind Man had sustained heavier wounds than he did, because he had taken on a Divine Skill from the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm directly. After returning to the side hall and speaking briefly with the Deacons, he too returned to his room and began healing with the help of Spiritual Power.
...
[Gu Family's main city]
"I'll be returning to Duanbei City now."
"Take care."
Gu Wanquan personally sent Gu Kuang and the other two back.
Watching the heavily saddened Gu Kuang, his heart was also very complex.
This brother of his spent most of the year in Duanbei City and was among the Elders who interacted with him the most.
This ti, even Gu Qian Jun had co to the Gu Family's main city.
He had planned to strive hard outside Duanbei City to beco Infinite Realm quickly, to assist the Young Master.
But now, with the Second Elder's situation looking grim, he had lost all other thoughts, wishing only to stay by the Second Elder's side and see him off on his final journey.
"Thanks."
Gu Kuang, uncharacteristically polite, cupped his hands towards Gu Wanquan.
"Now you're being formal with ?" Gu Wanquan frowned displeased.
Gu Kuang fell silent for a mont, and just as the other was about to leave, he finally spoke up, "If my grandson encounters any trouble in the Gu Family in the future, I hope you can lend a hand out of respect for , if you can."
"Don't need you to tell ."
"Goodbye." Gu Wanquan flung his sleeves and vanished from sight.
Perhaps, was this the last ti they would ever see each other?
Gu Kuang watched the direction in which he had left, his mood equally complex.
"Let's go, let's return ho."
"By the way, when is my grandson coming back?"
The others remained silent beside him, but Gu Kuang adjusted his mood and asked with a smile.
"I will send a ssage to that boy in a bit to call him back," Gu Sanfeng replied.
"No rush, no rush."
"Don't disturb my grandson's affairs."
"It's not like I'm dying tomorrow."
"I've still got so ti left to hold on to life."
Gu Kuang waved his hand dismissively, no longer said anything and the three of them headed back to the Gu Family Mansion.
But just as they arrived at the Gu Family,
Gu Kuang heard news that sent him into a rage!
"What did you say!?"
"A Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm attacked Changge!?"
"While I was risking life and limb in Duanbei City..."
Gu Kuang could feel his blood boiling and the world around him darkening.
Clutching at his chest, he was speechless.
"Hear out!"
"It's all right now, Changge is already safe!"
"He's currently at the Heavenly Cold Sect."
"But, to be safe, I've already ordered two Eighth Grade Elders to go to the Heavenly Cold Sect to escort him back."
"With that Ninth Grade predecessor by his side, how could anything happen so easily?"
Seeing his condition, Gu Zhan was also startled and quickly spoke up.
After a while, Gu Kuang finally recovered.
"Again, Annihilation Realm..."
"In Duanbei City, it was also the Annihilation Realm who made a move!"
"They are deliberately targeting my grandson."
"No, I must report this to the Ancestor!"
Filled with indignation, Gu Kuang was about to leave the main hall and head to the Back Mountain.
"Calm down."
"We still don't know the specifics of the situation."
"Let's wait for Changge to co back and then decide carefully what to do."
Gu Zhan was sowhat helpless; normally he could be more assertive, but considering Gu Kuang's current condition, he could only try to persuade with soft words.
"Calm down my ass!"
"My grandson was nearly killed by the Ninth Grade, and you want to calm down!? "
