Chapter 158: Chapter 142 Contacting Family for Support, Is My Cousin Coming Back?

“What do you plan to do next, Husband?”

“Do you not want to continue training for a while longer?”

Wang Yue looked at the sleeping little one and asked.

“Let’s go back.”

“We’ve pretty much reaped what we could from this trip.”

“Qingqing should also be nearly ready to return to the Sect to report back, right?”

Gu Changge pondered for a moment, also considering the idea of heading home.

Moreover, Yuan Youbai needed time to digest the large amount of Spiritual Liquid she consumed.

If it really came to battle, they could put the Refining process on hold, but there was no need; he wasn’t truly training for life and death situations.

“Soon, probably at most half a month before we set off,”

Liu Qingqing counted the days and nodded slightly.

Now her Points were more than secure for the position of Saintess, and besides, her Husband had given her a Sixth Grade Demon Beast Core, which alone was worth dozens of Fifth Grade Demon Beast Cores in Points!

In the next half month, she could stay peacefully by her Husband’s side and not venture back into the Demon Beast Forest.

“Time to go home, wake up…” Wang Yue approached and tried to wake Yuan Youbai with a smile.

Little Hanhan, hearing her voice, also lazily opened her eyes and nodded obediently.

But seeing her drowsy appearance, Gu Changge simply sighed.

He crouched in front of her: “Get on.”

“Mhm!” Yuan Youbai instinctively responded, then climbed onto her Husband’s back, her little hands clinging to his shoulders.

Smelling the pleasant scent of her Husband, she fell into an even deeper sleep…

Occasionally, she would rub her head against her Husband’s back, making Gu Changge feel ticklish.

“Tsk…”

“Looks like the Young Master has turned into a mount,” Gu Changge muttered to himself with a self-deprecating smile as he carried Little Hanhan out of the cave.

Others dreamt of having a member of the Dragon Clan as a mount, yet here he was, carrying Little Hanhan back home.

As he reached the mouth of the cave, he pressed his hand against the separating barrier and slightly exerted force; the barrier naturally dissipated.

“When Youbai grows up a bit more, it’s really hard to say who will be riding whom…”

Wang Yue said, laughing behind covered hands with squinted eyes.

Hearing her words, Liu Qingqing didn’t catch on immediately, but Gu Changge stumbled.

Why did it feel like his Wife was more open-minded than himself?

It wasn’t until they entered the long tunnel that Liu Qingqing seemed to grasp the meaning of her words, blushing suddenly.

But she said nothing more, silently following beside her Husband.

As they emerged from the cave, Gu Qianjun was the first to greet them.

At the cave entrance lay a Fifth Grade Demon Beast from the Ruins Realm, presumably slain by Gu Qianjun in recent days.

“Congratulations, Young Master, on reaching the Late Stage of the Reach Profound Realm!”

Seeing the Young Master, Gu Qianjun’s eyes lit up, especially sensing the aura of the Young Master’s Realm; he congratulated with admiration and respect.

“Let’s go, it’s time to go home.”

Gu Changge nodded ever so slightly, and the group walked unhurriedly in the direction of Duanbei City.

Worried that her Husband might get tired on the road, Liu Qingqing wanted to take over carrying the little one, but found that she clung tightly to her Husband’s back, unwilling to let go even in her sleep, so she gave up on the idea.

In the meantime, after casually dealing with a Demon Beast from the Ruins Realm, Gu Changge’s Attribute Points finally accumulated to over twenty thousand!

“Elder Xue.”

Gu Changge, not wanting to delay any further, seeing as he had earned plenty of Attribute Pills, didn’t care about killing more Demon Beasts on the way back to the city.

At his call, the Old Blind Man appeared cheerfully before him.

Understanding his intention, he gestured with a wave of his hand and took the group back into the sky toward home.

In no time, guided by the Ninth Grade Great Power, they were back at Gu Hall in Duanbei City.

“I’ll take a trip back to my station first to confirm the exact departure time,”

Liu Qingqing bid farewell to her Husband before departing first.

Gu Changge, meanwhile, carried the little one back to the side hall, placed her in her room on the bed.

“Mmm…”

Yuan Youbai let out a reluctant murmur as she left her Husband’s back.

But upon realizing she had already returned, she fell back into sleep.

The Spiritual Liquid she had drunk this time, along with the plenty of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures she had consumed along the way, would take her a while to digest.

He gently closed the door to her room.

When he returned to his main house, he saw Wang Yue already scantily clad, posing seductively, and looking at him with eyes and expressions that could capture one’s soul.

“Husband… it’s just the two of us now, we can, right?”

Wang Yue’s voice was honeyed, and he had no reason to refuse anymore; turning around to close the door, he spontaneously cast a barrier for privacy.

The person behind him had already pressed up against him, taking the initiative to help him shed his clothes.

When he turned around, she had already knowingly tied her hair back, knelt down smoothly.

“Hiss…”

…

After returning to Gu Hall, Gu Kuang didn’t disturb his eldest grandson; instead, he sought out Gu Wanquan.

The other two Elders were also present.

As Gu Kuang heard the details of the journey, he slapped his thigh in excitement: “As expected of my great-grandson! A Reach Profound Realm killing a Sixth Grade Demon Beast, in the Northern Domain, that must be unprecedented!”

Especially hearing Old Blind Man talk about the great-grandson’s heaven-defying Innate Divine Ability, Gu Kuang couldn’t stop beaming from ear to ear.

With such a great-grandson, how could the Gu Family not prosper?

In the future, the Northern Domain might as well take the Gu surname—what Northern Domain Royal Family, what Heavenly Cold Sect, weren’t those just the great-grandson’s future properties!

Once the great-grandson grew up, he would take it all down, all for the Gu Family! All for the great-grandson!

“It’s not just unprecedented in the Northern Domain…”

“Even in Central State, such examples are hard to come by.”

“Many geniuses have managed to kill across one Great Realm, but to leap two Great Realms to kill…”

“`

“There has hardly ever been such a thing.”

“Let alone killing a Sixth Grade Demon Beast; even among creatures of the same realm, Demon Beasts tend to have the upper hand!”

Old Blind Man said, shaking his head.

He was extremely envious of Gu Kuang.

He himself had to beg and plead to be able to follow the young master.

“This kid is planning to leave after the girl from the Liu Family returns to her sect.”

“Should I send a message home in advance to arrange for someone to meet him?”

Gu Wanquan tapped his fingers on the table, speaking offhandedly.

Hearing his words, Old Blind Man raised his eyebrows slightly.

“Don’t take it the wrong way, Blind Daoist Fellow; it’s not that we don’t trust you.”

“It’s just that if anything were to happen to him, the Ancestor would flay my skin.”

Seeing this, Gu Wanquan smiled apologetically and waved his hand in explanation.

“I understand.” Old Blind Man nodded slightly, he too understood the Gu Family’s concerns.

If he had a grandson like the young master, he would be just as protective, perhaps even not willing to let him out of his Divine Sense range, not allowing for the slightest accident.

To fully prove his reliability would take time and experiences.

The Gu Family was also not afraid that he would do anything to harm Gu Changge; if that were to happen, even in Central State, the Gu Family Ancestor would hunt him down and tear him to pieces.

“Also, my surname isn’t Blind.”

Left with no choice, he had to divert the topic.

As for Gu Wanquan, he took it in one ear and out the other.

Casually taking out a Communication Jade Token, he sent the news that Gu Changge would soon be returning to the Gu Family.

He asked for the family to arrange for a Heavenly Gate Realm Elder to come over to Duanbei City to meet him.

“Why not head back when it’s time?”

“Now that we have the kid, there’s no need for you to guard Duanbei City every day, right?”

After sending the message, Gu Wanquan couldn’t help but look at Gu Kuang and suggest.

“No.”

“I’ll wait until after we build the new city to return.”

“Given Changge’s special circumstances, I’m not comfortable letting him do the tasks that the Young Master should be doing.”

“Instead, I’ll do more on his behalf to prevent anyone at home from feeling resentful.”

Gu Kuang waved his hand, but despite his words, his face was always beaming with a smile.

Doing extra for his grandson brought him not inconvenience but joy.

“What are you saying?”

“With the kid’s condition, who would feel resentful?”

“Not you or me, even the Ancestor treats him like a treasure!”

“He’s been sent out to pioneer, could you really be at ease without a Heavenly Gate Realm Elder accompanying him?”

“It’s worrisome to let him stay out here, it’s better for him to be home.”

Gu Wanquan muttered, curling his lips.

Initially, when the Ancestor himself escorted the kid to Duanbei City, he thought it was an overreaction, or perhaps the Ancestor had been bored in the Back Mountain.

But now, after just two short months, he completely understood.

This kid going home meant the Ancestor would have to reassess in his heart whether he had underestimated Gu Changge’s full potential.

Too astonishing…

Whether it be his rapid breakthroughs or his heaven-defying talent.

“That’s true, heh…”

Gu Kuang opened his Wine Gourd and took a deep sip, nodding and laughing in agreement.

The other two Elders also smiled silently, nodding again and again.

…

Elsewhere, in the Gu Family.

Looking at the message transmitted through the Jade Talisman, Gu Zhan raised his eyebrows slightly.

“Needed to send a Heavenly Gate Realm for escort?”

“Isn’t that overkill…”

Although he muttered to himself, he wasn’t overly fixated on it; the Gu Family still had several Heavenly Gate Realm Elders who were up for the task.

So he directly called one such Elder, relayed the message, and asked him to head to Duanbei City in the coming days.

Beim Zhong Ge left home, Gu Zhan was astonished by his advancement speed but didn’t pay much more attention.

He was even unaware that in just two short months, he had already broken through to the late stage of the Reach Profound Realm!

In a courtyard.

Gu Changming, after being continuously defeated, was also in secluded cultivation.

In the three months since he last saw his brother Changge, his realm had not fallen behind; from the last meeting in the late stage of the Sky-Controlling Realm, he had broken through to the Perfection of the Sky-Controlling Realm!

He even faintly felt that he was about to hit a bottleneck and it should only take half a month before he could attempt to break through to the Qi Sea Realm!

“You little rascal, I have good news for you.”

“Changge is about to come back.” Gu Yixiao happened to hear the news from the Elder and, returning to his courtyard, he cheerfully told his son who had just paused from his cultivation.

Since being defeated by Changge, the boy had become more determined.

But lately, he’s been constantly thinking about when his brother would come home; he wanted to see how far behind he’d been left!

“Really?”

“Then I have to try in these few days and see if I can break through to the Qi Sea Realm!”

“This time, I won’t be left too far behind by cousin Changge!”

Hearing the news, Gu Changming was surprised, but immediately turned and re-entered the seclusion room, determined not to rest anymore.

Seeing this, Gu Yixiao was quite satisfied and threw a bottle of Elixir his way: “This Gathering Spirit Pill should be enough for you to break through to the Qi Sea Realm within ten days, cultivate well.”

But once his son began seclusion, he shook his head and chuckled bitterly: “Given Changge’s rate of cultivation, he’s probably about to break through the Reach Profound Realm by now, right?”

“But it’s good to provoke him; if this kid works harder on his cultivation, I’m relieved.”
