Chapter 373 -219: The Scent of Husband, Wu Jiang Saint Sets Out!_3
“I see that Daoist Fellow’s aptitude must be quite good, and now you have reached Ninth Grade Perfection,”
“Going to Central State, with the connection of being a Saint Heir, I believe breaking through to the Sage Realm within a hundred years will not be a problem!”
“By that time, with just a word from the Saint Heir, Daoist Fellow, you could hold the position of an elder within the Sword Sect,”
Sage Zhao’s eyes shifted suddenly as he opened his mouth to make a proposal.
“Cough…”
“Let’s wait a little longer.”
“No rush, no rush.”
Although Gu Kuang was very tempted by this proposal, he still had his own plans.
His eldest grandson needed to kill Demon Beasts to obtain origin power.
After the eldest grandson went to Central State, he could also stay in Duanbei City to accumulate some Demon Beasts for him, so the eldest grandson could return whenever he needed the origin-converging Elixirs.
As for himself…
Once the eldest grandson had made a name for himself and commanded respect in all four directions in Central State,
Wouldn’t it be the same if he went then?
It might even be possible that by then, the Gu Family would consider taking control over Central State!
Gu Changge also accompanied the old master in drinking two bowls of wine before he said, “Before leaving the Northern Domain, I plan to spend some time in the Demon Beast Forest.”
“It’s a good opportunity to practice and get familiar with the power I’ve mastered.”
“After all, I’ve hardly taken action since I started cultivation…”
“I wouldn’t want to be seen as nothing but a pretty face when I go to the Sword Sect’s Holy Land.”
Although he was speaking to the old master, his words were meant for the ears of the others.
Not to mention his extraordinarily solid foundation, just his current level of Comprehension made actual combat training practically unnecessary for him.
When it really came down to fighting, he would definitely not fall short!
“That’s fine, with these two Daoist fellows from the Sword Sect accompanying you, there won’t be any danger, and it would be good for you to have this experience,”
Gu Kuang nodded slightly, understanding the real reason behind his grandson’s decision.
“The young master is truly striving for excellence!”
“I admire that!”
At these words, Sage Zhao immediately clasped his hands in respect.
Considering the strength he had shown already, it’s not just being invincible within his own realm; even claiming invincibility across realms wouldn’t be a stretch.
And yet, he still felt that he wasn’t doing enough and needed experience!
Such a mindset was indeed rare.
He admitted to himself that if he had such talent and strength, he would have been far too proud by now.
“…” Daoist Fellow Jian Chen was just about to raise his hand to say something when Sage Zhao preempted him.
He could only inwardly remark how Elder Zhao was truly better at flattery than him, always a step ahead!
“By the way, where is Qian Jun? He usually follows you,”
Gu Changge casually asked.
“He,”
“is fighting with Demon Beasts outside the city every day, seeking a breakthrough amidst life and death.”
“However, the results are quite noticeable; he’s almost broken through to the Mid-Stage of the Void Refinement Realm!”
“I have given him life-saving measures, so he won’t really end up dying to some Demon Beast,”
Gu Kuang chuckled.
“Is Gu Qianjun the Direct Disciple whom the young master mentioned he wanted to give to me?”
Upon hearing this name, Sage Jian Chen’s eyes lit up as he spoke.
On the way to Duanbei City, he had already asked the young master for some information.
Qian Jun was from a collateral line of the Gu Family, but he had talent, having broken through to the Void Refinement Realm at just thirty years old. Even in Central State, his talent would rank among the upper middle tier.
Moreover, he had been cultivating in the barren Northern Domain. If he had been in Central State, perhaps he would have already reached the Late Stage or even Perfection of the Void Refinement Realm!
“Indeed.”
“After this period, Daoist Fellow Jian Chen may have the opportunity to meet him first. If he doesn’t suit you, there’s no need to force it,”
Gu Changge said with a clasped hand greeting.
“Heh, what’s there to force or not force.” ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
“Even though I haven’t met him yet, just by hearing what the young master has said, I already quite like the kid.”
“Seeking breakthroughs amidst life and death shows courage and mentality, and he will certainly achieve greatness in the future.”
Jian Chen waved his hands repeatedly, naturally not willing to pass up the opportunity to serve the young master.
Even Sage Zhao had taken a junior from the Gu Family as a Direct Disciple, so how could he fall behind others!
“Daoist Fellow Jian Chen intends to accept Qian Jun as a Direct Disciple!?”
“That means that kid will be able to cultivate in Central State’s Holy Land too?”
Upon hearing the conversation between the two, Gu Kuang suddenly started, asking out loud.
“Not just that.”
“Cousin Changming has now entered under the mentorship of Senior Zhao and will be a Sword Sect elder’s Direct Disciple.”
“When I go to the Sword Sect, I’ll take them both.”
“Having a better cultivation environment can help them progress faster and further.”
“Our Gu Family can’t always stay in the Northern Domain, can we?”
“To take control of Central State, it’s unrealistic to rely on just myself.”
Gu Changge said with a slight smile, speaking offhandedly.
“Good, good.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Kuang patted his grandson’s shoulder.
His grandson was not only promising himself,
but he also hadn’t forgotten to give cousin Changming a helping hand.
And for Gu Qianjun, whom he had nurtured and hoped to one day aid his grandson, now the grandson had allowed him to join the Central State Sword Sect.
This showed trust in his ability to choose people!
“When do you plan to leave the city?”
Gu Kuang was full of emotions, and although Gu Changming was his own grandson and he was naturally happy for him entering the Central State Sword Sect, he was more concerned about his eldest grandson’s affairs at the moment.
“Tomorrow, I’ll just prepare a little and set off.”
“Speaking of which, those two Demon Beasts outside the door, I’ll take them with me later?”
Gu Changge had no intention of continuing to drink with the four men and stood up to leave.
“Of course, do as you please with them. Besides, next to the Spirit Ring, there are a few Void Refinement Realm Demon Beasts, if you’re interested, you can take them to practice too,”
Gu Kuang laughed heartily, his speech meticulously crafted, suggesting that the grandson should use them for practicing his Divine Skills.
“Then, I’ll take my leave.”
Gu Changge gave a slight bow and left, with Gu Kuang looking at him with a smile in his eyes, while the other three also responded with a bow.
They even thought about getting up to see off the young master, but with the young master’s grandfather present, it was more appropriate to stay with the old master.
…
[Immortal Ascension Sect]
Wu Jiang Saint was looking at Elder Li who was passing by in front of Saint Peak.
He immediately understood that the plan was about to begin.
He left the Immortal Ascension Sect Mountain Gate, indicating that he needed to return to the Wu Family.
As a Saint Heir, his departure naturally didn’t raise too many questions.
However, his destination was not the Wu Family but the Northern Domain!
Accompanying him was also a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm Great Power from the Wu Family!
“I just wonder if Senior Brother Jiang is reliable…”
Although the fifth Saint Heir, Jiang Li, said there was no need for him to worry about the Sage Realm, he hadn’t yet seen any other Sage Realms apart from that Elder Li.
And even Elder Li had not traveled with him.
They planned to meet once they arrived in the Northern Domain, aiming to avoid alerting the Sword Sect.
Once the Sword Sect realized someone was targeting their newly acclaimed prodigy, even the fifth Saint Heir Jiang Li would have no more options!
