Chapter 287: Chapter 190: Binding Daoist Couple, Sharing Upgrades!_3

Just by making eye contact, she felt as if she had been seen through completely!

“What is this…”

Dongfang Mingyue exclaimed.

“Nothing but an Innate Divine Ability,” Gu Changge chuckled lightly, dissipated his Taoist Pupil, and his eyes returned to normal.

“No wonder…”

“It’s not!?”

“Wait a second!”

“What do you mean, ‘nothing but an Innate Divine Ability’?”

“Innate Divine Abilities… isn’t that something only those with Talent of Dao Body possess?”

“Apart from Demon Beasts, those with an extraordinary Bloodline often possess Innate Divine Ability beside them.”

“You… you’re not human!?”

Dongfang Mingyue suddenly covered her mouth, then looked at him incredulously as she realized what she’d said.

“…”

“Why are you insulting people all of a sudden?”

“You just said it yourself, with Talent of Dao Body one can possess Innate Divine Ability.”

“Why must I be a Demon Beast, and not possess the Talent of Dao Body?”

Gu Changge’s eyes twitched, and he spoke, somewhat speechlessly.

“But the Talent of Dao Body…”

“Even in Central State, there are few…”

“How could the barren Northern Domain…”

Dongfang Mingyue stopped mid-sentence.

Yes, although the Northern Domain was barren, and there were few in Central State with Talent of Dao Body.

However, Central State also did not have a monster that could allure a Heavenly Tribulation at fifth rank and devour it.

And he could.

If even this was possible, why not the Talent of Dao Body?

“Although I could see that you were hiding your Root Bone, I never imagined you were hiding it so deeply.”

“Talent of Dao Body…”

“No wonder you said ‘I have struck a good deal’.”

“Indeed, if that’s the case, you are not wrong.”

Dongfang Mingyue murmured to herself.

She suddenly understood everything.

The person opposite her had never been self-aggrandizing, but truly confident.

Why couldn’t the owner of a Talent of Dao Body be confident?

Even in Central State, how many could boast the Talent of Dao Body?

Just like the Saint Heir of the First Peak of Sword Sect, whom she admired the most, originally also possessed the Talent of Dao Body, Innate Sword Body, and dominated several generations.

Now he had reached the True Monarch Realm, securely sitting atop the First Peak and, in another thousand years, would have a chance to try and attain the rank of Human Immortal!

Could it be that she really had stumbled upon a treasure?

The Daoist Couple that suddenly came into her life also had the Talent of Dao Body comparable to that senior’s!?

“You…” Dongfang Mingyue was about to speak.

But Gu Changge cut in strongly, “Just a reminder, we are now Daoist Couple–it’s time to change how you address me. You can’t keep calling me ‘you’ all the time.”

“Then what should I call you?”

“Husband?”

“Is that acceptable…”

Dongfang Mingyue was slightly taken aback, but she also felt he made a lot of sense.

She made no attempts at feminine pretense and met his gaze as she spoke.

“Of course, that’s also fine.”

Gu Changge didn’t fuss much over the title.

He casually asked, “When does wife plan to return to Central State?”

“I’ll go back in a couple of days…”

“That’s the whole reason I sneaked out.”

“Now, after a series of miscalculations, I’ve… I’ve acquired a husband.”

“I need to explain things to the family.”

“So that they won’t send someone looking for me after discovering I’ve eloped, causing any misunderstandings.”

Dongfang Mingyue puffed her cheeks in frustration–indeed, she had misjudged the situation.

Not bringing back a Young Dragon was one thing, but now she herself had become part of the wager.

But then again…

It might not necessarily be a bad thing?

“Oh, by the way, a reminder.”

“That Young Dragon doesn’t necessarily need to be taken back to Central State.”

“It’s true that bringing her back could certainly lure the True Dragon.”

“But besides that, there are other ways.”

“Those people had hurt the Young Dragon before, they have her Dragon Blood, and they are currently arranging an Array, trying to fake the capture of it to draw out the True Dragon.”

“If they can’t discern the fake from the real, they might actually fall for it.”

Now that Dongfang Mingyue found herself in the same boat with him, she naturally stopped contemplating her previous plans.

Instead, she shared a piece of useful information with him.

If those people in Central State really needed that Young Dragon so desperately, they would have been restless by now.

They had other methods, which was why not many were focusing on the Young Dragon.

“This is troublesome…”

Gu Changge frowned upon hearing this.

Little Hanhan was now following him, and if it was possible, he wanted to help her resolve her troubles.

“How long will it take to complete that Array?”

Dongfang Mingyue thought for a moment and replied, “One year if it’s fast, two to three years if slow.”

“After all, deceiving a True Dragon isn’t easy; not a single flaw can exist.”

“Just the preparation of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures is significant, and everything must be seamless.”

Gu Changge breathed a little easier upon hearing this.

Time wasn’t pressing.

Even most likely, he could catch up with his trip to Central State.

By then… he would try as much as possible to resolve this issue.

In fact, as long as he went to Central State and joined a Holy Land, making it clear that Yuan Youbai was already his Daoist Couple, if the news reached the True Dragon’s ears…

She would be able to relax completely and wouldn’t be tricked.

It wasn’t a difficult thing to accomplish.

“Speaking of which, where are they?”

Dongfang Mingyue suddenly asked.

“They?” Gu Changge didn’t catch on at first.

“Has husband already forgotten your several lady friends?” Dongfang Mingyue raised an eyebrow.

“Cough…”

“You rest here first.”

“It’s a good time for me to see where they have gone.”

With that, Gu Changge remembered and turned to leave.

Dongfang Mingyue did not retain him.

Her mind was occupied with figuring out how to explain this situation to her family.

Sneaking out was one thing, but suddenly acquiring a husband was quite another matter.

The Dongfang Family held a distinctive position in Central State…

Her marriage was a significant event for the Dongfang Family!

…

As Gu Changge stepped out of Young Master Palace, he also felt a bit dazed.

Sitting at home, he had inexplicably gained a wife from Central State.

Indeed, his initial thought was correct.

Why bother searching far and wide for a Daoist Couple when destiny would bring one at the right time?

And now it had happened.

He figured the three women had probably gone back to their previous residence and decided to head directly there.

And he mentally checked his current status on the panel:

[Host: Gu Changge]

[Root Bone: 713]

[Comprehension: 659]

[Cultivation Technique: Emperor Dragon Control Secret, Heavenly Cold Technique, Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Technique, Purple Qi Eastward Technique.]

[Realm: Ruins Realm*Late Stage (65/100)]

[Divine Skills: omitted…]

[Talent: Transcendence, Protection, Taoist Pupil, Fatian Xiangdi, Hidden Breath, Dragon Flame]

[Attribute Point: 117400]

“Not far from the major milestone of 800!”

He glanced over his stats and dissipated the panel contentedly.

He was close to making a breakthrough to Perfection in the Ruins Realm.

And having a Daoist Couple, he had received a wealth of benefits.

After Dongfang Mingyue’s departure, it was time for him to focus on enhancing his strength.

However, he was slightly torn over whether to provide her with an Elixir now.
