After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 155: As Expected, It’s Awful
Chapter 155: Chapter 155: As Expected, It’s Awful
Watching Gu An leaving, Senior Brother Ye’s expression was somber.
His face was so gloomy it seemed as if it could drip water.
Daring to embarrass him like this, to injure his people.
It was outrageously brazen, to think with this strength, he could act so arrogantly within the Inner Sect?
Were it not for the fact that the axe of Qianchen Peak was about to fall,
He would have already crippled the other party.
But even if he could not directly make a move, there were countless other ways to regain face.
There was just one thing that infuriated him.
That was the other party’s concealment of his cultivation; had he known the other’s strength was so formidable, he would have been a valuable asset.
He had needlessly lost out on a significant reward for the next few years.
His expression was somber, and so was the sister on the other side.
To extort her people right in front of her, he clearly did not take her seriously.
....
Gu An left the small square.
This could be considered a simple resolution with Senior Brother Ye and the others.
However, his own performance was overly arrogant and domineering,
Making it difficult for Senior Brother Ye and that sister to save face.
If they don’t do something, they won’t be able to vent their frustration.
They probably wouldn’t seek people to make a move during the day, but at night it was uncertain.
So during this period, he would not return.
He would first focus on improving his cultivation and also pay attention to places of teaching and Doctrine.
He planned to start from there whenever he had spare time.
The matter with Ren Yinghua would likely be difficult as the other party would muddy the waters and delay time.
Such people’s words sound pleasant, but in reality, they are utterly useless.
Afterward, Gu An focused on logging.
Apart from the morning, he went to the logging forest to log wood.
Shocking God Wood in the afternoon, Blood God Wood at night.
His body was increasingly worn-down, and the extraction of his Qi-Blood made him much thinner.
Like an old man in his twilight years.
At noon, he would make time to visit the place of teaching and Doctrine.
There were several rooms, as well as a square.
The square was where the elders came to give sermons.
There would be one every one or two months.
The rooms were for other senior brothers and sisters to explain to Sect Disciples.
Each room would be open at least eight times a month.
But every time, Spirit Stones needed to be handed over.
Most rooms had people lining up to some degree.
Suddenly, a quarrel broke out from over there: "Senior Brother, could you make an exception? I’ve recently felt problems with my cultivation and signs of Deviation.
My Spirit Stones have just run out, can I make it up after receiving Spirit Stones again?"
The man maintaining order directly threw the person out.
"Get lost." The other didn’t offer an explanation.
"Senior Brother, please make an exception, I really feel signs of Deviation." The middle-aged man begged.
"If you don’t have Spirit Stones, what are you asking for? There’s no credit here," the bearded man maintaining order said coldly:
"Will you leave on your own, or should I make you leave?"
Saying this, he kicked the man flying out.
"Senior Brother, I will have Spirit Stones next month, please help me." The middle-aged man ran towards the room.
But as soon as he approached, the light of magic appeared.
The bearded man maintaining order threw out a punch.
Sea Suppressing Fist.
Bang!
Crack!
The middle-aged man was sent flying, his ribs broken.
At that moment, he fell right at Gu An’s feet.
"Senior Brother, are you alright?" Gu An crouched down to help him up.
The middle-aged man began to thank him, but upon seeing Gu An, he kept his head down and stumbled away.
Gu An felt the man recognized him, yet he did not recognize the man.
Watching the man’s retreating figure, Gu An shook his head with a sigh.
He remembered the first task in the Outer Sect.
The mission person was Ouyang Xuan.
She betrayed the Sect because she felt the Sect was corrupt.
He felt that he might also walk the same path as her.
If it wasn’t for Chu Meng’s backing, perhaps the other person might have been right.
Even if unwillingly, he might be forced onto the same old path as the other party.
With a sigh, Gu An continued to go back to logging.
He would come here every few days.
But even if conflicts arose here, no one paid much attention.
However, he did figure out one thing, which was that the mornings had the most people.
By mid-February.
Hard Cultivation was completed.
His understanding of the Innate Longevity Technique had also deepened.
Gu An felt he should be able to become a Golden Core.
While others need elixir pills to form their cores, he shouldn’t need them.
Fortunately, his magic technique is half complete and should be finished by the end of the month.
However, recently the murmurs of discontent have grown louder, and Gu An noticed many people stopped giving Spirit Stones.
Not just to him, but others experienced the same.
Even some have started to apologize.
And naturally, there were those who wanted Gu An to apologize as well.
Sadly, he did not care.
If apologies worked, what use would there be for a great sword?
As for his dwelling, indeed someone had been there.
It must have been people from Senior Brother Ye.
For safety’s sake, he still needed to stay hidden.
Additionally, Senior Sister Xu from the tea house invited him.
She mentioned there was a tea gathering at the end of the month, and hoped he would attend.
Gu An nodded in agreement.
Time passed quickly.
Approaching the end of February, there were only two days left until March.
Gu An’s body became increasingly thin, and today he was quietly logging.
It was the night logging yard.
The first half of the night.
By the second half of the night, the Ring of Destiny showed a reaction.
It was about Immortal Xu.
It said that Immortal Xu had already prepared a plan sufficiently enticing to make those attending the tea gathering dip into their savings.
Gu An paid no mind to it, continuing with his logging.
As dawn approached, Gu An stopped logging.
He felt a warm current in his body.
The values for his magic techniques changed.
Thus, he glanced at his panel stats.
[Name: Gu An]
[Cultivation: Perfect Foundation Establishment]
[Status: Poisoned]
[Magic: 50/50]
[Hard Cultivation: 100/100]
[Ring of Destiny]
Finally, the day had come.
He had waited almost a year for this day.
Already at Perfect Foundation Establishment, he was forcibly held back right before advancing to Golden Core.
Unable to progress.
All to cultivate Qi Sea Sky Gang.
"I hope the future Qi Sea Sky Gang will not disappoint me."
After such a reflection, Gu An stepped away.
It was time to return and advance.
As for the work during the day, he was about to be forced to resign anyway; many people outright disliked him.
Given the circumstances, it wouldn’t matter if he didn’t go this morning.
He’d just hang up a ’resting’ sign, and let them wait if there was an issue.
He had not taken a single day off in over half a year, which could be considered dedicated.
"Finishing early today?" The managing Senior Brother of the Blood God Wood asked with curiosity.
Gu An nodded: "My body can’t take it."
"Indeed, it’s quite forced." The other person showed understanding: "Your body has become very thin; you should be more careful."
Gu An thanked him.
It seems that ever since he caused a stir in the Outer Sect the last time, the attitude of the people at the night logging yard had improved a lot.
How long it would last, he didn’t know.
After hanging a ’resting’ sign at the door of the Spiritual Treasure Vault.
Gu An returned to his dwelling.
Without any hesitation, he activated the Array, and then adjusted his status.
Once ready, he extracted the magic technique value.
He began advancing to Qi Sea Sky Gang.
Once this was complete, Qi Sea Sky Gang would reach Great Success.
He then fell into a dream state once again.
Starting to accumulate Heavenly Gang Qi.
It was a lengthy but effortless accumulation.
Time went by bit by bit.
Ten years.
Twenty years.
Fifty years.
Sixty years.
Perhaps even longer.
Not until the Gang Qi of Qi Sea Sky Gang filled up did Gu An finally open his eyes.
When he released the Gang Qi,
The originally foggy Gang Qi instantly turned into rainwater, settling like a lake within the Qi Sea.
Seeing this, the corners of Gu An’s mouth lifted.
Qi Sea Sky Gang Second Volume...
Great Success!
