Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse-Chapter 340 - 209: The Sword Sect Specially Congratulates the Saint Heir!

Originally, it was assumed that only the many powers from the Northern Domain would be enough, and the presence of a few more Loose Cultivators wouldn’t matter.

But now, even powers from the other three territories had sent representatives to present their gifts and attend the banquet.

The reason, of course, was very simple: Young Master Gu had been accepted into the Central State Sword Sect as a Saint Heir, and this was their only opportunity to have any contact with the Saint Heir of Central State!

They couldn’t reach the Saint Heir of Central State, but the Gu Family was accessible.

Especially since Young Master Gu had been appointed as a Saint Heir before even heading to Central State, his future achievements were bound to be extraordinary!

Establishing good relations with him could do no harm!

As noon drew near, everything was finally almost in order.

However, outside the Gu Family Mansion, there was still a relentless stream of late-coming Cultivators arriving with their gifts.

In response, Family Head Gu Zhan, with a sweeping gesture, announced that the family was out of space.

For those who continued to arrive, some tables were set up in front of the mansion to entertain the tardy Cultivators, ensuring that their efforts to attend were not wasted.

“Where is Changge?”

As the Family Head, Gu Zhan was also incredibly busy, but when he saw Gu Kuang, the Young Master’s own grandfather, surrounded by many powers’ representatives offering him drinks, he couldn’t resist approaching and asking.

The banquet was about to start, and the protagonist of the event was yet to make an appearance.

“He’s probably still asleep.”

“No matter, my grandson isn’t unreliable. When the time comes, he will show up.”

Gu Kuang casually glanced around and replied offhandedly.

The place set up for the banquet wasn’t too far from the Young Master Palace.

In order to prevent anyone from disturbing the Young Master, the Gu Family even purposely left a few Deacons to guard the area a kilometer outside the palace.

Despite the separation of the crowd, curious onlookers couldn’t be kept from gazing toward the palace.

“That’s the grand palace where Young Master Gu typically resides… it’s truly imposing.”

“It seems to be the most luxurious building in the entire Gu Family, doesn’t it?”

“Indeed, if my Li Family could produce a genius of such extraordinary talent like Young Master Gu, we too would cherish and treat him like a family treasure!”

“Yes, alas, we’re not so fortunate!”

The discussion continued unabated outside the hall, with voices abuzz.

But inside the palace, thanks to the Isolation Array, Gu Changge was sleeping quite soundly.

“Husband, it’s about time, isn’t it?” Liu Qingqing nudged the person beside her, sounding somewhat resigned.

“Oh… Seems like it’s time to make an appearance.”

Gu Changge rubbed his eyes and slowly, somewhat reluctantly, got up.

Seeing the magnificent clothing that the Gu Family had sent over the day before, Liu Qingqing was about to assist her husband in getting dressed.

“This is a bit too flashy,” said Gu Changge, shaking his head, not used to such extravagance.

He normally wore simple, plain black robes, but today’s outfit, with its embroidered dragons and phoenixes, was resplendently gold…

“If Husband dislikes it, then don’t wear it.”

Liu Qingqing smiled gently, for in her eyes, no matter what her husband wore, he was peerless and unmatched by anyone in the world.

Why fuss over clothes?

She promptly refolded the outfit sent over the previous day and put it back, assisting her husband into his usual black robe.

Even the ostentatious Feather Crown went unworn; as usual, her husband merely bound his hair with a black cloth band.

Liu Qingqing couldn’t help but gaze at her husband, lost in thought.

The plain attire seemed perfect on her husband, appearing stunning no matter how she looked at him.

“What is it?”

Gu Changge, feeling her stare, touched his own face and looked at himself in the mirror, wondering if something was amiss.

“Nothing, I just thought Husband looked handsome, so I couldn’t help but take an extra glance or two,” said Liu Qingqing without hesitation.

“I knew it!” Gu Changge was startled at her words, only to then gaze deeply at his wife.

Liu Qingqing asked curiously, “Knew what?”

“Husband is simply longing for my body…” Gu Changge declared earnestly, with a frown.

“…”

“That said, there’s really no problem with that.”

Liu Qingqing’s expression froze, but then she glanced upward, recalling her first meeting with her husband.

Indeed, she had found him attractive, and although he couldn’t cultivate, good looks were enough.

“Ts-ts…”

Gu Changge didn’t expect his wife to actually admit it.

Suddenly, Liu Qingqing stepped closer, frowning at his mouth.

“What else have you noticed?” Gu Changge asked with a laugh, seeing her expression.

But she merely stood on tiptoe and, like a dragonfly skimming the water, pressed a kiss to his lips before pulling away.

“I’ve discovered Husband’s mouth is nice to kiss.”

After saying that, Liu Qingqing turned and began tidying the bed, her movements somewhat frantic, clearly embarrassed.
