186: Chapter 186 Ascending to the Immortal Realm One Month Later, the Final Farewell
Elsewhere, Elder Gu Kong was drinking tea in the courtyard when he suddenly heard footsteps approaching. A Disciple walked over and whispered a few words to him.
Elder Gu Kong's hand holding the teacup paused. "What did you say? Qingshan brought a young woman back to the Mountain Gate?"
The Disciple nodded. "Yes, Elder! Young Master Qingshan had her settle in, and arranged for her to stay in the guest room on the east side of the front courtyard."
Elder Gu Kong set down his teacup, the corners of his mouth already curling up, unable to hide his delight!
He stood up. "Take me to see her!"
He had thought his son would keep being picky, but he hadn't expected him to suddenly see the light!
He thought to himself, 'My son has finally become sensible!'
He hurriedly went to find Gu Qingshan, wanting to see what the young woman looked like at the same time!
When Gu Qingshan saw his father, he immediately felt that something bad was about to happen. Could there be some kind of misunderstanding?
Elder Gu Kong walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder. "Let me see the young woman."
Gu Qingshan looked back at him with a helpless expression. "I just saw that she was pitiful and brought her back to settle her in, that's all!"
Elder Gu Kong didn't care. "Settling her in is good. Settle her in first, then we'll see. Anyway, she's already in our Family, it's not like nothing is possible. What's her Family situation?"
Gu Qingshan was silent for two seconds, then briefly recounted what had happened outside just now.
Elder Gu Kong's expression didn't change as he listened, he just nodded. "Her brother is a degenerate gambler, and the contract has already been torn up, so now she is unburdened."
He paused. "That's perfect, it saves us from having to help her deal with those troublesome matters later."
Gu Qingshan: "..."
Had his father misunderstood something?
Why was he acting like they were already Family?
"Father, it's not what you think..." Before Gu Qingshan could finish, Elder Gu Kong interrupted him. "You handle it yourself, I'm not in a rush! Feelings can be cultivated slowly!"
After saying this, he left chuckling!
Gu Qingshan: It seems today is not a good day to go out!
At the same time! The back mountain.
Immortal King Su Mingchuan seemed to sense the expansion of the Immortal Qi!
He had a premonition about this before, but he hadn't expected it to be faster than he anticipated!
His gaze fell on the lake, and he spoke, "Master, I sense that in one month, the Immortal Path will appear. Now that you have obtained the Origin power of the Desolate Ancient Continent, you can ascend to the Upper Realm at any time!"
Gu Xuan nodded. "Mm."
Now that everything was arranged properly, it was time to prepare to head to a bigger stage!
By then, the Gu Family would achieve even greater development!
Gu Xuan looked up at the sky and thought to himself, "The Immortal Realm might be very exciting!"
At the same time, he was also looking forward to what special things might be in the Immortal Realm!
Beside him, Immortal King Su Mingchuan was also filled with anticipation!
This world was still too small for him; his powerful cultivation had no room to be unleashed!
It was even suppressing his Realm!
Once they reached the Immortal Realm, it would be different!
He would let them know what the power of an Immortal King was!
Subsequently, the news of Gu Xuan's Ascension in one month instantly spread throughout the Gu Family!
Upon receiving the news, Gu Chen turned and walked in the direction of Gu Qingshan!
At this moment, Gu Qingshan had just sent off Elder Gu Kong and had not yet recovered from the misunderstanding earlier.
He saw Gu Chen's hurried figure. "Has something happened?"
Gu Chen walked up to him. "The Old Ancestor is going to ascend in one month!"
Gu Qingshan's expression paused. "Has the news already spread?"
Gu Chen nodded. "They should know by now, and it will be notified to all places successively."
He paused. "Let's go to the back mountain first!"
The two of them quickly headed toward the back mountain!
The news that the Gu Family Ancestor was about to ascend spread quickly; the Gu Family's strongest expert would soon ascend to the Immortal Realm!
The first to receive the notification were the Elders, followed by the core members of affiliated forces, and then the newly recruited Disciples and servants!
Wherever the news reached, it would draw sounds of shock!
"The Old Ancestor is going to ascend? Is it that Immortal-level Ascension?"
"I heard it's next month! I thought we would have to wait at least three or five years, I didn't expect it to be so fast!"
"Then what will happen to the Gu Family in the future? Once the Old Ancestor leaves, who will hold the fort?"
"Didn't you hear the rest of the news? The Old Ancestor said he will leave behind several Great Emperors to assist!"
The tone of everyone's conversation was filled with astonishment!
The speed at which the news spread to other parts of the Desolate Ancient Continent was not slow either!
They just felt that this news was too shocking!
"Damn! The Gu Family Ancestor is going to ascend? Is it that Ascension to the Immortal Realm?"
"It should be true, the news came from inside the Gu Family, it can't be fake!"
"I knew that pillar of light from before wasn't an ordinary object! That was the commotion that only an Immortal could cause!"
Another Cultivator nearby also came over and sighed, "How long has it been? How long has the Gu Family been emerging, and they are already going to ascend? While we are still fighting for Spiritual Veins, they are already preparing to go to the Immortal Realm! The gap is just too big!"
"For the Gu Family, this might really just be the starting point; the Immortal Realm is their true stage!"
Some people also had an indescribable sense of desolation in their tone!
"If the Gu Family leaves, what will happen to the Desolate Ancient Continent in the future? I was still thinking about trying again the next time they open their Mountain Gate!"
"Don't think so far ahead, the Gu Family isn't all leaving, I heard there will be several Great Emperors and Elders staying behind to hold the fort! Besides, what if one day the Gu Family comes back from the Immortal Realm?"
Meanwhile, inside the Gu Family, they had already started notifying level by level, asking every Disciple if they were willing to accompany them to the Immortal Realm!
When those young Disciples heard this news, they were so excited they were incoherent!
The Old Ancestor was actually willing to take them with him during his Ascension!
He was too good to them!
That was the Immortal Realm!
"I want to go to the Immortal Realm!"
"I will stay behind, my Family is still in the Lower Realm, I have to look after them!"
"I'm going too! This is a chance for Immortal Ascension, if I miss it, it's gone!"
The answers were all different, everyone had different thoughts!
For the Cultivators planning to ascend to the Immortal Realm, the Gu Family told them to spend this month properly saying goodbye to the people important to them!
At the back mountain, Gu Chen and Gu Qingshan walked to the lakeside, where Gu Xuan was sitting in his old spot, lying down leisurely.
On the other side, Immortal King Su Mingchuan sat a few steps away, just nodding slightly at the two of them.
The two of them were used to it; they didn't know when the Old Ancestor had brought over such amazing gems!
Each one was so powerful!
"You're here? Have you both decided?" Gu Xuan asked.
Gu Chen spoke first. "Old Ancestor, I want to go to the Immortal Realm, take me with you!"
Gu Qingshan also followed up. "I'm going too."
He thought to himself: "Once we reach the Immortal Realm, my father won't be able to nag me to find a wife every day, right!"
By then, he wouldn't even be able to see me, so I can avoid it, right!
Gu Xuan looked at him and couldn't help but chuckle; he naturally guessed Gu Qingshan's thoughts!
But he didn't say anything more.
"Alright, then let's go together."
The two didn't stay long, spoke a few simple words, and then left!
And Gu Xuan began to plan what the first step should be after arriving in the Immortal Realm.
After the news spread, those Disciples who decided to accompany them left the Gu Family one after another, returning to their original Families or Sects to make their final farewells!
