After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 280 - 229: Gu An: This Time I’m Really Innocent_2
Chapter 280: Chapter 229: Gu An: This Time I’m Really Innocent_2
At the moment when he was about to summon greater strength, there was a soft sound.
The blade pierced through his heart.
He was furious, power surging out.
However, an invisible giant hand surged from beneath him.
It grasped and held his body, and with a bang, tore it even more directly.
At the same time, another large hand grabbed his neck.
"You..."
Bang!
Without any hesitation, this hand crushed the opponent’s neck.
Blood gushed out.
Following that, an iron sphere appeared.
It exploded instantly!
Boom!
Si Wuye’s body was directly blasted away, missing a part.
Thus, a figure holding a long blade fell once again.
Decapitating him.
This scene occurred in the blink of an eye.
In just a moment, Lin Rou and another person saw a man suddenly appear and directly kill Si Wuye.
Then that person turned to glance at them.
Finally, vanishing into the misty rain.
Lin Rou recognized that person in an instant...
Zuo Youyan.
Senior Brother Zuo.
The man beside her recognized him as well.
He never expected such a turn of events at the last moment.
...
Gu An left the Sect and was on his way back to the Spiritual Beast Breeding Farm.
He was flying on his sword, silent.
This time, he was still somewhat impulsive.
Ordinarily, he should not kill within the Sect.
There was a certain chance he would be held accountable.
But now, his ability to conceal his Qi was nearly at Great Success, and he had the Blood Evil Great Movement.
Using Chasing Sun as a basis, condensing Zuo Youyan’s Blood Spirit to cover himself.
He left no clues that would disadvantage him, so he should not be detected.
Elder Huang, as a victim of the last major purge, must have lost a lot of Spirit Stones.
He had made several attempts on Gu An’s life, which also was understandable.
But his heart was truly red.
As for Si Wuye, Gu An did indeed want to take action.
However, when he arrived, he found not only Arrays but also the presence of Demon Beasts.
Especially upon seeing Si Wuye, the enormous and vast Qi on his body shocked him.
Once a move was made, it would surely attract the attention of the people around.
Even though Si Wuye’s mind was not clear, reducing some of his strength, killing him was by no means easy.
Even if he did not kill him, Si Wuye would not let him go, and Si Wuye simply wanted to kill him to vent his anger, just for some temporary satisfaction.
Two months later, Si Wuye indeed had a certain possibility of improving his cultivation.
Escaping from the Primordial Spirit.
By that time, Gu An would most likely still be at Primordial Spirit.
The situation would be even more dangerous.
But there was never a chance to take action.
Soon, Gu An found that the female senior fellow disciple made her move.
Moreover, Si Wuye had been Poisoned, and his Qi was not flowing smoothly.
Another good opportunity presented itself, and it was secure.
In the end, under the cover of the giant python, and while the other party could not use their cultivation promptly due to the Poison, the blade pierced into the opponent’s heart.
Even at the last moments of life, the opponent’s consciousness was not so clear.
So, Gu An succeeded like this.
It was somewhat absurd.
But it is apparent that Si Wuye had made quite a few enemies.
Once weak, there were people who wanted to take the opportunity to kill him.
Those two people, Gu An did not make a move on them.
He deliberately let them see himself.
So that they could confirm it was Zuo Youyan who made the move.
Taking a deep breath, Gu An put the Storage Treasure he obtained, along with other items, into the First Void Star.
After some hesitation, he put everything in the Storage Treasure that had some problems, including Spirit Stones, into the First Void Star.
Special items were all kept in one Storage Treasure, then sealed.
This way, it was secure.
Only leaving behind some ordinary items and some common books.
All of which could be exposed to light.
Of course, Gu An also left only two thousand Spirit Stones.
For someone at Golden Core Early Stage, leading the Outer Peak’s backcourt.
Having two thousand Spirit Stones was not excessive.
Of course, according to his expectations, he should not have any problems, but who knows if there would be an accident.
Not being injured this time was unexpected for him.
He had even prepared Healing Pills before making a move.
Evening.
In the afternoon, Gu An flew on his sword slowly.
Thinking about how to deal with this issue.
Elder Huang is dead; no one should deliberately trouble him for the time being.
Additionally, the task may not be as thorny as before.
But it might still be difficult to handle.
Just as he was contemplating, he suddenly felt someone rapidly approaching from behind.
Three people, all with Primordial Spirits.
This caught Gu An by surprise.
Why had three Primordial Spirits suddenly started chasing him?
Gu An dared not look back, instead continuing to fly on his sword.
Judging by their Qi, they might be at the same Late-stage Primordial Spirit as himself.
Within a few breaths, three figures landed in front of him.
Leading them was a young man.
It was indeed Dugu Jing from the Law Enforcement Hall.
Gu An was astonished, wondering why people from the Law Enforcement Hall were here.
"Junior Brother, we meet again," Dugu Jing said with a smile towards Gu An.
Gu An greeted the three with respect: "Are you looking for me, Senior Brother?"
"Yes," Dugu Jing nodded and said:
"Something has happened within the Sect recently, and it’s quite serious; we need Junior Brother to come back."
"I’m currently on a mission," Gu An replied with slight difficulty.
He had never expected that after leaving the Sect,
people from the Law Enforcement Hall would actually come after him.
Why?
Had he left any clues behind?
That shouldn’t be the case.
If it had been before, he indeed might have left traces.
But now, he should have only left traces of Zuo Youyan.
"The mission is not urgent; the Sect has had several deaths, and Junior Brother happens to have some connections with them, so we need Junior Brother to return," Dugu Jing said with a tinge of emotion:
"Six people died in the Sect this time, including two Direct Disciples, two Deacon Elders, and two Inner Sect Disciples.
It’s suspected to be the work of one person.
Naturally, there are suspicions about Junior Brother being an accomplice."
Gu An was shocked in his heart.
It was clear from the way they put it; they suspected him of conspiring with others in killing people.
The last time he delivered items to Senior Brother Dugu, it wasn’t for nothing.
The other party was very clear.
But...
Weren’t there only Si Wuye and Elder Huang who died?
Why are there four more?
This time he was truly wronged.
"Let’s go, Junior Brother," Dugu Jing said with a smile, gesturing for him to follow.
Gu An had no choice but to abandon his mission and follow back to the Law Enforcement Hall.
...
Elsewhere.
Chu Meng was tidying up Spiritual Medicine in the yard.
When putting them away, she would take a sniff.
Seemingly making sure there were no issues with the Elixir Pills.
Moments later, a knock sounded at the door.
"Come in."
Chu Meng said casually.
Chunyu stepped into the room.
"What’s the matter? Did the family send a letter?" Chu Meng kept inspecting the Spiritual Medicine in her hand.
"No, the family has not sent any letters for now," Chunyu hesitated and then said: "The servant has recently been gathering information outside, and today I’ve heard a slightly shocking piece of news."
"What news?" Chu Meng didn’t pay much attention.
"Some people in the Sect have died."
"Isn’t that quite normal? People from the Law Enforcement Hall will naturally investigate."
"This time two Direct Disciples and two Deacon Elders died."
Chu Meng was slightly surprised: "That serious?"
Occasionally, the death of Inner Sect Disciples was not something unusual.
After all, there are always those who challenge the Law Enforcement Hall.
Of course, sometimes the Law Enforcement Hall indeed doesn’t intervene much.
So they can muddle through.
But recently, the Law Enforcement Hall has been rather diligent, and killing at this time is clearly not a wise choice.
"Which two Direct Disciples have died?" Chu Meng asked.
"One was Si Wuye from Spirit Controlling Peak, and the other was Jin Chenyue from Qianchen Peak," Chunyu replied.
At the mention of Si Wuye, Chu Meng paused, looked at Chunyu, and asked: "Si Wuye is dead?"
"Yes, and there’re also a Deacon Elder from the base of Qianchen Peak, and Elder Huang from the Outer Peak Master’s Court," Chunyu added.
Elder Huang?
Chu Meng thought of something and then asked, "Has the Law Enforcement Hall taken action?"
"They have. Apparently, they want to arrest all potential suspects first. That Gu An, who kills like mowing grass, has also been arrested," Chunyu answered.
Chu Meng: "...."
This development was completely unexpected by Chu Meng.
She knew Si Wuye was bound to die, but never so soon.
"How did they die? Are there any direct suspects?" Chu Meng asked.
"The death of a Qianchen Peak Disciple had no witnesses, but from some clues, it appears to be the work of Zuo Youyan.
Also, it seems Jin Chenyue was a direct loser from a big sweep.
I don’t know why she would die," Chunyu pondered and then continued:
"However, there were direct witnesses for Si Wuye from the other side.
But they actually insisted that they were the killers.
No one else took action."
