Chapter 318 -201: Suspected Sacred Body? Does It Ever End!_3
As the Family Head, facing these Great Powers from Central State, one could only act with the utmost respect.
But he himself could disregard these Sage Realm Great Powers and, with a pat on the backside, just walk away.
Suddenly, Gu Zhan came to understand why the Elders supported this youngster so firmly on regular days.
He really couldn’t compare to him.
“Daoist Fellow Li, that’s not quite right,” an Elder Jian Chen said, eyes darkening.
“His talent has already been tested; why bring it up again?”
“You’re showing mistrust towards Little Friend Gu.”
Elder Jian Chen looked displeasedly at the Elder of the Immortal Ascension Sect.
“Ha ha…”
“Daoist Fellow Jian Chen, you had tested his talent before, have you not? Why not disclose that he is of Extreme Dao Body?”
“Moreover, it wouldn’t hurt for the Orchid Valley Master to explain why those five-petaled flowers withered, would it?”
“I was merely curious, is there anything wrong with that?”
Li He, with an insincere smile, faced the two without showing any weakness.
“Flowers bloom and flowers wither, how normal is that?”
“It’s already been explained; there’s no particular reason.”
Orchid Valley Master said with a slight smile, dismissing the concern.
But at this moment, she solidified her intention to draw Gu Changge into Wan Hua Valley. This youngster was not simple, at least more so than Mei’er. The blooming of five petals was already an unprecedented level, let alone the odd feeling she sensed at the end…
“Is that so?”
Li He raised an eyebrow, clearly not convinced by his words.
However, with Gu Changge’s departure, it gave them some time to prepare.
These matters had to be reported to the Sect!
The situation was far more complex than previously imagined.
They thought he was only of Talent of Dao Body, but now this youngster’s aptitude had surpassed any Dao Body they knew of in Central State!
With proper nurturing, his prospects were boundless!
Not to mention recreating the glory of the First Peak’s Sword Sect’s Saint Heir, even surpassing him wouldn’t be difficult!
In the past thousand years, the Sword Sect had increasingly suppressed the other three major forces, with the Saint Heir from the First Peak being a major contributor.
His influence among the younger generation of Central State was enormous.
Compared to other Holy Lands, the Sword Sect’s Saint Heir is so powerful, almost on par with the Sect Master. Who wouldn’t be tempted?
Who wouldn’t want to join the Sword Sect?
“Err… shall I arrange quarters for my seniors first?”
Seeing that the atmosphere wasn’t right, Gu Zhan, concerned that these four Sage Realm individuals might start fighting and take it out on his Gu Family, found himself troubled as the Family Head.
So he could only step forward and softly test the waters.
“No need to trouble yourself.”
“I shall return tomorrow to pay a visit.”

Li He could hardly wait to convey the message back to the Sect. As he spoke, his figure dissolved into Tao Rhythm and vanished from the great hall.
Residing in the Gu Family was less appealing to him than finding any common mountain.
Moreover, as a Sage Realm individual staying at the Gu Family, it inevitably leads to the constant vigilance of the Gu Family Ancestor.
It was rather uncomfortable.
Earlier in the great hall, he could feel a Perfect True Man Realm powerhouse constantly shrouding the hall with Divine Sense.
This person did not conceal the scrutiny at all, deliberately making it known that they were being watched.
It wasn’t until Gu Changge left that the Divine Sense also dissipated.
“Amitabha…”
The Heartless Buddha from the Buddhist Sect chanted a Buddha Scripture and also turned into a golden script, disappearing into nothing in the midst of the hall.
Orchid Valley Master also lost interest in staying at the Gu Family, stepping forward and vanishing into a flurry of petals.
Only Elder Jian Chen glanced at Old Blind Man.
“Elder, if you don’t mind, you may stay at Old Blind Man’s courtyard.”
Seeing the situation, Old Blind Man was quick to speak.
“That would be fine,” Jian Chen chuckled lightly and nodded.
“Elder, this way please.” Old Blind Man stood to lead the way, and both men also left the great hall.
Only when everyone had departed did the many Gu Family Elders present finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Gu Zhan relaxed as well, retaking his seat.
Rubbing the armrest, he momentarily felt dazed.
He suddenly considered that the old family’s suggestions might not be so bad after all.
Why should he fill the head seat…
Better to let Gu Changge take over as the sole head, to avoid the awkwardness of not having a seat when another Great Power arrives.
He was not like that youngster Gu Changge; he had no right to sit alongside those of the Sage Realm.
“What should we do about this matter?”
After a moment of silence, an Elder suddenly asked.
“What to do?”
“What else can we do, but to serve them cautiously?”
“The Young Master dared to leave them and go; do we dare to?”
“Better leave it to the Young Master to handle…”
“When it concerns the Holy Lands of Central State, we’d do well to just watch the excitement.”
Elder Gu Liang smirked as he spoke.
At his words, the other Elders fell silent again.
Indeed…
Unwittingly, the Young Master seemed to have exceeded their expectations.
They once could help the Young Master, but now, they had completely no say in his matters.
…
After leaving, Gu Changge went straight back to his Young Master Palace.
Glancing at his fingers, he couldn’t help but rub them against his clothing again.
“I wonder if that Sage from Wan Hua Valley noticed anything…”
He had relied on controlling the input of Spiritual Energy to conceal his true talent.
And with his Divine Concealment Secret Technique, even Sages couldn’t detect any faults.
But unexpectedly, that Sage from Wan Hua Valley directly tested his aptitude with his blood.
From his expression, Gu Changge wasn’t sure whether the other party had guessed his Sacred Body Talent…
But he was unwilling to be tested any further.
Test after test, would he become their subject to pick and choose?
“Tomorrow, there should be a good harvest.”
Gu Changge slightly curved his lips upwards, he intended to keep those people on tenterhooks.
Since the matter of Extreme Dao Body had already been revealed.
The offers they could make should also change.
Giving them a day to think for themselves, to report to their Sects, would bring him the most benefits!
It’s pointless to rush; it’s they who should be anxious.
By the time he returned to the Young Master Palace, he found that two figures seemed to have been waiting for him all along in the great hall. As soon as he entered, the two figures stood up.
“Husband, why have you returned so soon?”
“What was the outcome?”
Wang Yue asked with curiosity.
