Chapter 284: Chapter 231: The Humiliation of Having My Cultivation Sealed by My Childhood Friend_2
"I am also a suspect, how do I leave?" Gu An asked in return.
The two of them were stunned for a moment.
A suspect?
They hadn’t seen that at all.
"If everything goes smoothly, I will be out tomorrow," Gu An said.
"And if it doesn’t go smoothly?" Shan Yuanyong asked.
*Not smoothly?* Gu An pondered for a moment, then had the answer.
*Not smoothly means they found the true culprit.*
*And the true culprit is naturally myself.*
*In that case, I won’t be able to leave here.*
*I wonder if by that time, Chu Meng can get me out.*
*Probably not.*
*It does feel a bit risky.*
*Who knows what kind of capabilities the Law Enforcement Hall and Luo Sheng Hall have.*
*I put too much trust in the technique of the Blood Demon Divine Monarch.*
Early the next morning.
Gu An received the message to get ready, and once the procedures were completed, he could leave immediately.
*He felt slightly reluctant.*
Upon hearing this, Shan Yuanyong and Lin Rou were astonished, *a suspect with such powerful connections?*
*And they could get out?*
"Are you really going out?" Lin Rou suddenly asked.
Gu An nodded.
"Can you do me a favor?" Lin Rou asked.
"Let’s hear it," Gu An wasn’t quick to agree.
If the person was really the one Zuo Youyan mentioned, it was not unreasonable to help them out.
As for getting someone out.
That was beyond his capability.
No matter what he was asked to do, he had to act within his ability.
The other hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "I have a younger sister named Lin Yan at Qianchen Peak. I hope you can deliver a message to her, tell her to go under the bed where I live, there are resources left for her.
As a reward, you can take half of the resources there."
Gu An looked at the person before him, and finally nodded.
After a moment of hesitation, he added, "Do you have an Identity Token?"
The other paused and said, "I have nothing left on me."
"Use your blood then, your sister can recognize it, right?" Gu An asked.
The other nodded.
Afterwards, Gu An collected a small vial of fresh blood.
*Boldly, without any intention to hide.*
*He wasn’t sure if the people from the Law Enforcement Peak were watching.*
*He had no intention of sneaking around.*
Afterwards, he left the Law Enforcement Hall smoothly.
When he came out, it was Dugu Jing who saw him off.
"Junior Brother, you truly surprise me, you managed to get the Merit Hall to back you up. This time the Merit Hall made a big move, eager for everyone to know they’re backing you up." Dugu Jing said with a smile,
"But Junior Brother is only out temporarily. If you need to go on a mission recently, you have to register at the Law Enforcement Hall.
So we know your whereabouts.
If we find any clues, we will still come to you.
It doesn’t mean there’s nothing happening after you leave, just that we can’t continue to interrogate and control your freedom.
Also, congratulations on making it to the Merit Hall’s list."
"Thank you, Senior Brother," Gu An responded politely, then took out the vial of blood and said, "This is Senior Sister Lin’s blood; can it be taken away?"
"You can," Dugu Jing said with a smile, "Any other questions, Junior Brother?"
"If I go to Qingmu City, do I need to register?" Gu An asked.
Qingmu City was outside the Sect.
It would be cumbersome if registration was necessary.
"No need," Dugu Jing said, "As long as it’s nearby, no registration is required, the Communication Talisman can find your Identity Token."
Gu An let out a sigh of relief.
He then asked about the case.
"There should have been two people involved, the motive..." Dugu Jing looked at Gu An and said, "It can be said that both are related to you, making some in Luo Sheng Hall suspect if you have some mysterious person backing you up, clearing these troubles for you.
But it involves two Direct Disciples, and the Sect is likely to be uneasy afterward.
Since we haven’t found the culprit, we have to compensate from other places.
If we can’t find them recklessly, then what’s the point of having a Law Enforcement Hall?"
The Law Enforcement Hall would become much more diligent in the future, which Gu An hadn’t anticipated.
He then asked more about the case.
Unfortunately, some things were leaked, and Gu An couldn’t ask further.
After chatting about some trivial matters, Gu An left directly.
He wasn’t in a hurry to return to Heavenly Suspension Peak.
Instead, he first went to Qianchen Peak.
Yang Qi had heard many things recently.
He knew there had been huge changes.
The Direct Disciple of Qianchen Peak was dead, and so was an official.
Along with some Inner Sect Disciples.
It’s fair to say that Qianchen Peak was extremely quiet now.
No one dared to act rashly.
Because the people from the Law Enforcement Hall had come again and again, taking away many people.
No one had been sent back yet.
*In just one year, how many times had this happened?*
*When had Qianchen Peak experienced such upheavals?*
Then Yang Qi heard even more terrifying news from his townsmen.
The Direct Disciples of other peaks were also dead.
Senior Brother Gu An was unexpectedly the prime suspect.
"Again related to Senior Brother Gu," Yang Qi sat in his room, quite emotional, "Senior Brother Gu had just gone to Heavenly Suspension Peak for a few months and such a big incident happened.
If he becomes a Direct Disciple, will the sky fall?"
Unfortunately, he hadn’t seen him for a long time.
Unlike before, when they could log together.
Now, unknowingly, he became a Peak Master’s disciple.
His status had risen too quickly.
*Before seeing him, he was considered legendary, but after, he found out he was countless times more legendary than the rumors.*
*Who knows when they’ll meet again.*
As he thought of this.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
This made Yang Qi pause.
He was a bit taken aback.
Who would knock at this time?
"It’s me," Gu An’s voice came through.
Yang Qi was taken aback.
He quickly opened the door.
It was indeed Gu An.
"Senior Brother Gu, weren’t you at the Law Enforcement Hall?" Yang Qi immediately asked.
He looked around and said, "Quickly come in."
Gu An went inside.
Soon the other closed the door and said, "How did you escape, Senior Brother?"
Gu An shook his head, "I was let out."
Yang Qi was a bit taken aback, how did he get out?
His townsmen said it was extremely difficult to get out.
*Was the news delayed?*
"Did you come to find me because you needed me to do something?" Yang Qi asked.
"I want you to help find someone." Gu An took out a letter and said,
"Once you find her, give her this letter."
Yang Qi took the letter and said, "Alright."
He then talked about recent events.
He said many things had happened at Qianchen Peak.
Nowadays, everyone was on edge, and no one mentioned Gu An.
They didn’t have the time to complain.
Now another Direct Disciple had died, and everyone was behaving.
This period should be the most relaxed.
Moreover, he mentioned Yu Tu.
Gu An thought of the slightly anxious Yu Tu and was also curious about his current situation.
"He had returned to his hometown, but unexpectedly, his childhood friend’s family heard that Yu Tu had a low status in the Sect and often caused trouble. They told Yu Tu’s parents not to flaunt that they had a cultivator in the family.
They should not live better than others, and it would be best if they were the poorest family in the town.
When Yu Tu returned, it was hard to explain, so he went to find his childhood sweetheart.
In the end, she said he was a toad wanting to eat swan meat, and for that, he wouldn’t hesitate to violate Sect rules and do some despicable things.
She wanted him to obediently hand over his ill-gotten gains so she could forgive him.
And then he could have a chance to talk to her again in the future.
Yu Tu thought she was talking nonsense, but he had a stutter.
When he wanted to explain, she just shut him up.
In the end, he got so angry that he approached her, hoping she would give him a chance to explain.
And the guardian by her side took action and seriously injured Yu Tu.
In the end, his parents knelt and kowtowed, handed over the Spirit Stones, and then took him away."
Upon hearing this, Gu An sighed slightly, not expecting such a result.
"What about now?" Gu An asked.
"He’s still injured, but he attends the night logging yard every day.
This time he learned his lesson and decided to leave the Spirit Stones with others so that no matter how he’s bullied, he won’t lose the Spirit Stones." Yang Qi said with a laugh. "He earns about twenty Spirit Stones a month, leaving some for himself, and storing half with me and half with Junior Sister Zeng.
He wanted to advance to Foundation Establishment, but was suppressed every time.
Totally powerless to resist.
I wanted to help him, but his childhood friend is really strong, and the person behind her is no weakling."
"How is Junior Sister Zeng?" Gu An asked again.
"She’s doing fine, but she’s also working hard at logging.
I don’t know why she’s so eager to earn Spirit Stones," Yang Qi said.
Gu An was silent for a moment, maybe it was for her mother.
It was just unknown how long her mother could hold on.
