90: Chapter 90 I'm getting married? How come I didn't know? Let's have the wedding first.

When the news reached the Gu Family, Clan Leader Gu Tianhua was busy preparing!

He put down what he was holding and looked at the reporting Disciple, "Demon Race? Are you sure?"

"I'm sure! Central Province has already confirmed it; a vanguard of the Demon Race has appeared in The Extreme North!"

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua was silent for a moment, then turned and walked toward the back mountain.

The back mountain!

"Old Ancestor, the Demon Race has appeared! What should we do?"

Gu Xuan opened his eyes, "Hmm, I know."

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua was stunned for a moment, "You know?"

Gu Xuan glanced at him, "What? Do you think I know nothing?"

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua shut his mouth.

He had said too much; if he had known, he wouldn't have said anything!

It seems Old Ancestor knows everything.

"Don't worry about it, let them make a ruckus. The passage won't open for another two months. Those who have come now are just small fry; the Imperial Clans in Central Province can handle them."

Using a cannon to kill a mosquito every time is simply a waste of resources!

They are all just cannon fodder; letting the Imperial Clans of Central Province handle them is sufficient!

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua nodded and turned to leave.

"Wait."

Gu Xuan called him back.

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua turned around.

"How are the betrothal gifts coming along?"

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua was stunned; he didn't expect Old Ancestor to ask about this!

He smiled and replied, "They are almost ready, just waiting for Gu Chen to come out of seclusion! The young lady has agreed as well!"

Gu Xuan nodded, "That's good, go ahead."

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua left.

Meanwhile, in the direction of the God-Locking Tower, Sword Intent soared into the sky!

Gu Chen's seclusion had reached its most critical moment.

His strength had already reached the Peak of the Half-Saint Realm, just one step away from reaching the Saint Realm.

Gu Qingshan and Li Shuangxu had also almost reached the Saint Realm!

Three days later.

Gu Qingshan gave a low roar, and the Spiritual Qi within his body surged out like a tidal wave!

The aura of a Saint soared into the sky!

Gu Qingshan had achieved a Breakthrough, reaching the first level of the Saint Realm!

At the same time, another aura of a Saint soared into the sky!

Li Shuangxu had also broken through to the first level of the Saint Realm!

He opened his eyes and let out a long breath, "Finally, I don't have to be a drag anymore!"

Immediately following, another aura of a Saint soared into the sky!

It was more than ten times stronger than that of Gu Qingshan and Li Shuangxu!

The rust on Gu Chen's Hidden Abyss Emperor Dragon Sword fell off completely, and a Dragon roar exploded, resounding throughout the entire Gu Family!

Causing everyone to look toward the direction of Gu Chen's seclusion!

The back mountain.

Gu Xuan lay on a reclining chair and opened his eyes.

He smiled, "They've broken through; all three have broken through."

Immediately, the System panel appeared before his eyes!

[Congratulations Host, the mission for the entire Family to reach the Saint Realm has been completed.]

[Rewards are being distributed — Great Emperor Summoning Card x2, Random Summoning Card x2.]

Gu Xuan glanced at the rewards and casually put them away.

Then the System rang again.

[Ding! New mission released!]

[Detected that the Demon Race is preparing to invade the Desolate Ancient Continent! As the strongest Family, protecting our base is mandatory! The Desolate Ancient Continent is the root of the Gu Family; naturally, it cannot be invaded by others!]

[Mission Requirement: Counterattack the Demon Race and ensure the invaders never return!]

[Mission Reward: Great Emperor Summoning Card x5 (Non-upgradable)]

Gu Xuan raised an eyebrow and smiled.

Five Great Emperor Summoning Cards!

Added to the two from before, that makes seven.

Although they cannot be upgraded, it seems pretty good!

After all, it's exactly what needs to be handled!

It's a convenient task!

"The one who knows me best is the System! I was just worrying that the Enforcer Hall didn't have enough people, and now they've been delivered!"

Adding the previously upgradable Great Emperor and the two from the recently completed mission, there are a total of six!

The day to summon an Immortal is just around the corner!

He looked toward the distant horizon, where the aura of the Demon Realm was becoming increasingly intense!

However, Gu Xuan felt a bit of anticipation; this is truly a case of "there is a path to Heaven that you do not take, and a door to Hell that you force your way into!"

He put down his teacup and closed his eyes.

No rush, let the Imperial Clans in Central Province busy themselves for a while first.

Once they are done, then he will take action!

Take them down in one fell swoop!

God-Locking Tower.

Gu Chen stood up and gripped the Hidden Abyss Emperor Dragon Sword in his hand!

The rust on the sword had completely fallen off, revealing the flowing Spiritual Qi beneath!

Sword Intent circulated within his body, and the aura of the first level of the Saint Realm surged endlessly!

"Coming out of seclusion!"

He walked out of the God-Locking Tower.

On the Gu Family plaza, there were colorful lights and streamers, and large red lanterns hung high!

Gu Chen was stunned for a moment, "What's going on?"

A Gu Family Disciple ran over, and upon seeing Gu Chen, his eyes lit up, "Young Master! You've come out of seclusion!"

Gu Chen nodded and asked in confusion, "Is the Gu Family holding a joyous occasion? Who is it for?"

The Disciple was stunned for a moment, "Young Master, you don't know?"

"What should I know?"

Gu Chen was stunned by this remark; he had been in seclusion and knew nothing, so why did it seem like he should know?

Could this be for me?

The Disciple scratched his head, "Aren't you getting married?!"

Gu Chen's mind buzzed, "What?!"

Getting married?

Why didn't I know?

What the Hell?

What happened?

Can someone tell me?

The Disciple was startled by his reaction, "The Clan Chief said so. He said that once you came out of seclusion, the wedding would be held. The betrothal gifts are all prepared; they've piled up a whole room full!"

Gu Chen's face turned red instantly, and he asked weakly, "Who am I marrying?"

The Disciple looked confused, "Ru Shuang, isn't she the wife you brought back?"

Gu Chen opened his mouth, unable to speak.

That's great!

His unreliable father was finally reliable for once!

He actually secured Ru Shuang while he was in seclusion!

Love you, Dad!

In the distance, Clan Leader Gu Tianhua walked over, and upon seeing Gu Chen, his eyes lit up, "Chen'er! You've come out of seclusion?"

Gu Chen looked at his father, "Dad, what is going on?"

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua chuckled, "What do you mean what's going on? You've already brought your wife back, what are you waiting for if not to get married?"

"Ru Shuang and I are just friends; how could I be so presumptuous..."

Although he said that, he was blooming with joy inside!

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua asked in confusion, "Friends? You bring a friend back? You let a friend live in your home? You let a friend meet the Old Ancestor?"

Gu Chen was too embarrassed to speak.

Isn't that what friends are like?

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua patted his shoulder, "Alright, stop pretending! Dad has prepared everything, just waiting for you to come out of seclusion! Three days from now, the wedding will be held!"

"Three days?!" Gu Chen panicked, "Isn't that too rushed?"

"What's the rush? Dad has been preparing for nearly two months, just waiting for this day! Besides, the young lady hasn't said anything, so what are you panicking about?"

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua turned and walked away, "I'm going to tell the Old Ancestor that you've come out of seclusion."

Gu Chen stood where he was, his face flushed, what did he mean by the young lady had already agreed?

If Ru Shuang had already agreed, then what else could he say?

It's a done deal!

In the distance, Ru Shuang was walking over from the direction of the Spiritual Liquid Pool!

She saw Gu Chen, her steps paused, and the two looked at each other.

Gu Chen opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn't utter a single word.

Ru Shuang's face also turned red.

The two just stood there like that, neither of them speaking.

A breeze blew by, and the large red lanterns swayed gently.

The back mountain.

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua ran up, "Old Ancestor, Chen'er has come out of seclusion."

Gu Xuan opened his eyes, "Hmm."

"The wedding is in three days, do you think that's okay?"

Gu Xuan nodded, "That's fine."

He paused, "As for the Demon Race, ignore them for now; let's hold the wedding first!"

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua smiled, "That's what I was thinking too!"

It's about time for the Gu Family to have some good fortune to sweep away the gloom!
