After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 238 - 210: The Poison Has Changed_2
Chapter 238: Chapter 210: The Poison Has Changed_2
As for the True Inheritors, they are not located in the various Main Peaks.
They each occupy a Secondary Peak, with a status just below the Peak Masters.
Above many elders.
Once up the mountain, even at the foot of the mountain or Outer Peak, ordinary people dare not provoke.
Of course, some people have backers from the mountain, so they are not timid.
Nor are they afraid of ordinary mountain disciples.
However, newly accepted disciples, under unclear circumstances, provoking others is just seeking discomfort for themselves.
Pang Wen and others nodded respectfully, daring not to disobey Gu An’s words.
Or rather, they have now wholeheartedly considered Gu An as their leader.
In every aspect, Gu An is not someone they can afford to provoke.
Shu Ci’s attitude is relatively good.
She still tries to do something, but each time Gu An brushes her off.
She is not discouraged.
Taking things slowly, never annoying or repelling others.
After they left, Gu An continued reading.
Until the afternoon.
Noticing someone entering on his own, Gu An knew that the person he was waiting for had arrived.
Who else would be so impolite?
Coming here like it’s their own house, not even greeting.
Creak.
The door was opened.
Gu An sat in the hall looking at the doorway.
At this moment, the person who opened the door was startled by the gaze of the person in the hall, and exclaimed:
"Scared me, why are you closing the door in broad daylight?
Did you do something guilty?
Hiding a beauty in the golden house?"
Chu Meng came in and looked around, seemingly trying to find the person hidden inside.
"Are you here to deliver a reward, senior?" Gu An initiated.
He had become immune to Chu Meng’s peculiarities.
Just ignore it.
The more attention you pay, the more excited they become.
"If I’m not delivering a reward, am I unwelcome?" Chu Meng sat opposite Gu An and asked.
Yes, Gu An thought to himself, but still sincerely said: "Senior, I am naturally glad when you spare time to visit."
"For your reward, you even start telling blatant lies now? You still chased me away before." Chu Meng realized something:
"I get it, now that the reward is in my hands, you’ve become honest."
Gu An: "..."
Am I really that fickle?
Gu An couldn’t remember.
But still, he poured some water for Chu Meng.
"Exactly, it’s all because of the reward, you even started pouring water." Chu Meng felt even more certain of her guess.
Gu An: "..."
Should have known not to pour.
Sighing inwardly, he asked: "So, senior, are you here to deliver a reward?"
"Of course." Chu Meng didn’t beat around the bush, displaying some dishes:
"The tests confirm it’s authentic. You’ve accomplished a great deed.
But that scoundrel said Zuo Youyan might have a Cultivation Technique.
Called ’Ancient Burning Sky Technique’, did you get it?"
"I did." Gu An didn’t hesitate and directly took out the book.
Chu Meng was taken aback and said, "I told her you didn’t. Why didn’t you bring it out before but now you do?"
"Why did senior ask me then?" Gu An was somewhat speechless.
"Of course, to remind you that there’s something off with this technique, don’t practice it recklessly.
Have you cultivated it?" Chu Meng asked.
Gu An shook his head: "Haven’t even flipped it open yet, if there’s a problem, senior can take it away."
Chu Meng disdainfully said: "Do you think I collect garbage? Of course, this technique is still very powerful, but it seems to have some inherent issues, probably specific to certain physiques.
Perhaps a Flame Physique.
Anyway, you can read, you can refer to it, but don’t practice it recklessly.
Otherwise, I have only you as a subordinate.
It’s supposed to be a superior bestowing upon a subordinate, I can’t lose face."
Superiors bestowing on subordinates keeps your face intact? Gu An subconsciously thought.
"Keep the Ancient Burning Sky Technique to yourself; I will pretend I never saw it. Now, let’s talk about your reward." Chu Meng said while eating peanuts:
"The first reward is a Token Fragment.
With this, you now have four Token Fragments.
You still need five more.
Keep up the good work."
Gu An received the Token Fragment, feeling a bit sentimental, still so many left.
Five missions, who knows until when.
And so many hidden agendas.
Previously, it was good luck, but who knows if he will have the same luck later.
"Here, take this Elixir Pill as well." Saying so, Chu Meng took out a small box and explained:
"This is a Five-colored Pill, it can extend the lifespan of a Golden Core by a hundred years, but only has half the effect on other cultivation levels.
Moreover, only the first pill is useful, eating more afterwards is useless.
If you exceed the Golden Core stage, I will try to get you another one."
Gu An did not hesitate and took the Elixir Pill.
"Shouldn’t you be at the Primordial Spirit stage?" Chu Meng asked in surprise.
Gu An remained calm.
This time he wasn’t going to be tricked into revealing anything.
Chu Meng didn’t care, but mentioned: "Besides, there’s this."
She then took out a long box.
Opening it, there was a broken blade inside.
Simple yet ordinary.
"This is a broken blade of a powerful Sword Cultivator, containing a trace of Sword Intent.
Aren’t you cultivating the sword? I specially requested this for you." Chu Meng smiled: "Once you comprehend the Sword Intent, you can directly control your sword to return to Heavenly Suspension Peak, no need to walk.
That place’s Gang Qi can only temper your Sword Intent.
How is it?
Am I good to you?"
Gu An looked at the broken blade, wondering if Sword Intent could be quantified by magical values.
It doesn’t seem likely, wouldn’t that expose his poor talent?
But he could still try, no harm in failing to comprehend.
This indeed is also a good item.
Just when he thought there was nothing else, Chu Meng again took out a box and said:
"There’s also this."
Gu An opened the box and found nine red beans inside.
"Have you learned Planting Beans into Soldiers? Take these, don’t say you’re at the Golden Core, whether it be Primordial Spirit or even Returning to Void, you can use these beans.
