After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 268 - 224: Pretty Good at Selling Pipe Dreams

Situ Baichuan looked at the five people without much change in emotion.

Without too much expectation, naturally, he wouldn’t deliberately be dissatisfied with them.

At this time, Luu Ping looked at his master respectfully and said,

"We indeed made some gains. After reaching the Sword Immortal Bamboo Forest, we quickly discovered the Sword Immortal Tomb.

Junior Brother Gu thought it would be essential to obtain the Sword Immortal Bamboo Spirit Core Spirit Bamboo.

He knew that Heavenly Suspension Peak doesn’t have a Sword Immortal Bamboo Forest.

Therefore, he stayed behind to cut bamboo while the four of us entered the Sword Immortal Tomb."

Hearing this, Situ Baichuan nodded slightly and said to Gu An, "You were thoughtful."

Many people wanted to obtain the Spirit Bamboo, but they couldn’t.

It was said that the method to obtain it was incorrect.

Currently, no one knew how to obtain it.

Some said that cutting down the entire bamboo forest would yield the Core Spirit Bamboo.

Unfortunately, some had indeed cut down the entire forest.

Yet in the end, nothing was gained.

At this point, Luu Ping continued, "Afterward, the four of us gained some inheritance in the Sword Immortal Tomb, which was a small gain."

"Oh?" Situ Baichuan smiled and said, "Not bad, take your time to comprehend it."

He didn’t care much about what inheritance they gained.

Whether a sword cultivator or other cultivators,

*in cultivation, one must always keep some things hidden. If all secrets were made known, it would be dangerous.*

As a master, he wouldn’t probe further unless they asked for guidance.

Of course, if there were any danger, he would give them warnings in advance.

For instance, sometimes a Sword Immortal would leave behind a special Sword Intent, within which a Residual Soul might be concealed, allowing it to take over someone else’s body if one harbored ill intentions. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

He smoothly informed them about this matter.

Upon hearing this, Luu Ping and the others respectfully saluted and expressed their gratitude.

Seeing this, Situ Baichuan said no more and intended to let them leave.

As for Gu An, he assumed he didn’t gain anything.

The latter claimed he was cutting bamboo to find the Core Spirit Bamboo.

*He probably wasn’t simply cutting bamboo.*

*Why was he so fond of logging?* He didn’t know.

*Perhaps he intended to go deep within the sect and cut some special wood.*

*Indeed, some people did cut some special trees and changed their future.*

*But...*

*these are one in a million.*

*And extremely dangerous.*

*Only those with no hope and possibility would attempt such a path.*

And...

*Not everyone could get close to the special trees.*

Just as he was about to speak, Luu Ping’s voice continued, "These are just small gains. The real reward goes to Junior Brother Gu."

Hearing this, Situ Baichuan was somewhat surprised, "Another gain?"

Seeing this, Gu An handed over the Bamboo Rice and said, "This is the Bamboo Rice I obtained while cutting bamboo, and I’m not sure what it is."

Luu Ping followed, "Junior Brother got this while logging alone. After obtaining this Bamboo Rice, all the bamboo in the forest disappeared.

Additionally, everyone was sent out of the Sword Immortal Tomb.

It should be the most crucial treasure of the Sword Immortal Tomb.

We feared discovery, so we left the secret realm immediately to find Master.

Afraid that Junior Brother’s earnest effort would encounter an accident."

Taking the Bamboo Rice, Situ Baichuan examined it for a moment, then looked at Gu An and asked,

"Hand it over to the master?"

"Yes." Gu An nodded earnestly.

He didn’t mention conditions or rewards.

Situ Baichuan was indeed surprised.

He didn’t expect Gu An to have obtained this item.

He was silent for a while, pondering something, then said,

"Keep this matter a secret for now. You should return first. I need to confirm whether this is something the Sword Sect needs."

Saying this, Situ Baichuan looked at Gu An and said,

"Within a month at most, I will have someone contact you."

The latter didn’t speak, only saluted respectfully.

Afterward, he left with the senior brothers and sisters.

Luu Ping and the others didn’t linger; they quickly left.

They needed to go back to digest the gains from this time.

Gu An also needed to go back and process a few things.

He realized there was also a Storage Treasure he hadn’t yet processed and didn’t know what was inside.

He needed to go back and see.

A moment later.

Gu An arrived at a remote lakeside and saw his courtyard.

As soon as he entered, he saw Mian Tiao standing in front of a Fat Tiger, gesturing something.

The Divine Tree flashed occasionally.

It seemed to be communicating.

The Fat Tiger, about the size of a cat, saw Gu An and immediately flattered him, "Big Brother, you’re back. Mian Tiao seems to have something to tell you."

Gu An was slightly surprised.

He turned his head to look at Mian Tiao.

At this moment, one of Mian Tiao’s large eyes was swollen and couldn’t open.

Moreover, the fins used as hands seemed to be...

quite reduced.

"Got caught stealing?"

Gu An’s first thought was this.

Mian Tiao gestured at Gu An, "Wah leh, wah leh, wah la."

It seemed very aggrieved.

*Gu An felt a pang of sympathy, then said with empathy, "Speak human language."*

*He really couldn’t understand.*

Mian Tiao started wailing again, but Gu An still couldn’t understand, so for safety’s sake, he asked, "Were you seen?"

Mian Tiao shook its head.

This reassured Gu An.

He then instructed the Blood Demon Divine Monarch to console Mian Tiao.

*He tossed some peanuts and entered the house.*

*Mian Tiao probably got caught stealing and was beaten.*

*The exact situation was unknown.*

*But since it hadn’t been seen, it probably wouldn’t be followed.*

*So he still wasn’t exposed.*

*But why would it have been discovered?*

*Mian Tiao was incredibly adept at stealth, and even now, without a special sense, he couldn’t detect it.*

"Hope it doesn’t get caught, or if it does, at least not rat me out."

*He had warned Mian Tiao, but the other party seemed not to understand.*

*Luckily, he hadn’t sent it anything recently.*

Reaching his room, Gu An took out the newly acquired Storage Treasure.

*The other party was late-stage Primordial Spirit, so there should be plenty of Spirit Stones.*
