Chapter 341 -209: Sword Sect Special Visit to Congratulate the Saint Heir!_2
But this had left Gu Changge stupefied for a moment.
Had he been teased by his wife in reverse?

Nice!
It was only because time was approaching, otherwise he would have properly punished her to show her just how formidable he was!
Seeing her obviously guilty expression, Gu Changge decided to step out of the room first.
Inside the hall, Wang Yue and Yuan Youbai were seated at a table, clearly waiting for him.
“Had thought Lord Jun was too busy being affectionate with sister and had no plans to attend the banquet,”
Wang Yue said, leaning on the table with her chin propped on her hands, smiling through squinted eyes.
“Youbai is hungry!”
“Lord Jun, can you set up a separate table for Youbai later? Youbai can eat quite a bit!”
Yuan Youbai’s eyes sparkled—she had never attended a Human Clan banquet before.
“Don’t worry, you’ll definitely be full…”
Gu Changge rubbed her head with a resigned smile.
Before long, Liu Qingqing had also tidied up the bed and walked out of the room.
“Let’s go check out how the banquet preparations are coming along.”
Saying this, he had already started walking outside.
Liu Qingqing’s light footsteps hastened to catch up by his side, her arm linking naturally with his–a display of claiming her rights.
Normally, she didn’t vie for attention, but when it came to her husband, she had to fight for her place; otherwise, how could she let Wang Yue take the lead, staying away from her husband every day?
Seeing this, Wang Yue simply covered her mouth and giggled without any concern.
Gripping Yuan Youbai’s hand, she followed on the other side of Lord Jun.
After all, Liu Qingqing had married Lord Jun a step ahead of her, which Wang Yue understood well, thus she felt nothing was inappropriate.
As soon as the group had stepped out of the Young Master Palace,
They were immediately noticed by the several stewards waiting outside.
Two of them approached first, bowing with a salutation: “Young Master, Young Lady.”
“You’ve finally come out, the Family Head has been anxiously waiting…”
Gu Changge could only respond with an apologetic smile and follow the steward toward the banquet venue.
Before he even arrived, many people wanted to approach and familiarize themselves with him,
But they were all stopped by the Gu Family’s steward.
The venue was divided into terraced sections, with each power having its own lineage, the highest status being situated closest to the Young Master Palace.
Those seated on top each had a separate desk, a modest table placed before each participant.
Heavenly Cold Sect, Northern Domain Royal Family, and naturally the Gu Family were seated in this highest tier.
Those below them also had individual tables, but these were noticeably simpler, not because the Gu Family couldn’t prepare the same, but to emphasize status and prevent dissatisfaction.
Even further below were smaller families, minor powers, or Loose Cultivators who had come together.
In this tier, there were no individual tables but rather large round tables since there were too many people; preparing a separate table for each would overwhelm the Gu Family’s steward.
Under the watchful eyes of all, Gu Changge, arm-in-arm with his wife, walked up to the highest level, causing all Gu Family members to rise from their seats.
Even the Elders and the Family Head, Gu Zhan, involuntarily stood up as he arrived.
People from other powers had also stood up at his appearance, some even deliberately clearing about half a meter of space to avoid having their view blocked and to see the Young Master Gu.
“Sorry… overslept.”
Gu Changge first bowed to the crowd and then specifically to the approaching grand uncle, the Family Head.
“No worries, it’s fine as long as you’re here.”
Gu Zhan waved his hand off; it wasn’t a big deal, he was just really worried that this lad might be in seclusion, causing him to miss the three-day banquet.
“Now that everyone is here, let’s start the feast.”
Gu Zhan gestured for the stewards already prepared by the Gu Family to serve Spirit Fruit, various Demon Beast meats, and of course, Spiritual Wine couldn’t be missed.
Yet, the guests did not even start to eat, still focusing their attention on Gu Changge, seemingly waiting for him to speak.
“This…”
“Your Young Master is not good with words. I won’t say much, thank you all for coming.”
“To express my gratitude, a toast to all!”
Seeing no way out, Gu Changge reluctantly took the Spiritual Wine from the steward’s hand, signaled to everyone, and then downed it in one gulp.
With his current Sixth Grade Refining Void Realm mid-stage status, drinking Spiritual Wine didn’t make him drunk and wobbly as before; now, unless he deliberately didn’t suppress the effect of the alcohol, only then could he feel slightly tipsy.
Seeing Young Master Gu toast, everyone present hurriedly lifted their bowls and finished their drink in one gulp.
They would have enough to brag about for a while!
The Loose Cultivators felt this trip was extremely worthwhile!
Young Master Gu was now the Saint of the Sword Sect.
Being toasted by him, they could boast about it for a lifetime!
Even though it wasn’t a personal toast…it was enough!
With his opening, the atmosphere immediately livened, with continuous praises and compliments.
Gu Zhan further let Gu Changge sit in the clearly designated main seat.
Despite feeling uncomfortable and wanting to sit beside his grandfather, Gu Zhan would not agree to it.
Eventually, he had no choice but to reluctantly take his seat, with Liu Qingqing, and the other two also having their spots arranged by his side.
“Young Master Gu indeed looks distinguished, not only in strength and talent but in looks too, I feel somewhat ashamed of myself!”
“Isn’t that so? Just within this year, Young Master Gu has taken three Daoist Couples… oh no, should be four!”
“This man’s romantic life is unstoppable, truly envy-inducing.”
“I’ve been adrift half my life, yet haven’t even found a suitable Daoist Couple, alas…”
