After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 285 - 232: Once You Marry In, You’ll Have to Embrace a Chubby Immortal
Chapter 285: Chapter 232: Once You Marry In, You’ll Have to Embrace a Chubby Immortal
Yu Tu and Zeng Lan were the friends Gu An made in the Outer Sect.
At that time, they logged together.
Those who went to the night logging yard often had their own difficulties.
Originally, Gu An went there for the logging.
Whereas Zeng Lan needed Spirit Stones.
She earned Spirit Stones to save her mother.
But even though she was injured all over, with her foundation damaged, she couldn’t earn more Spirit Stones.
It wasn’t because she wasn’t hardworking, nor was her talent too poor.
It was...
She had no choice.
As for Yu Tu, at first, he naively believed that his childhood friend did it for his sake.
Until later, she used the test as an excuse to make him undergo Foundation Establishment.
Not only did she not give him a Foundation Establishment Pill, but the other Elixir Pills she gave were also poisoned.
Which ultimately led to his failure in Foundation Establishment.
After the failure, when the test was deemed a failure, he thought he could get back the previous Spirit Stones.
In the end, he got nothing.
And he was threatened.
When he returned, his parents were deceived, and life became strained.
His reputation was utterly ruined.
When he sought to reason with her, he was not only insulted but also severely injured.
He only managed to leave after his parents begged for mercy.
Back in the Sect, when he wanted to try Foundation Establishment again, he found it to be an indefinitely distant dream.
It wasn’t that his talent was insufficient.
But his childhood friend did not give him the chance; repeated heavy injuries left him without enough status to advance in Foundation Establishment.
As an Outer Disciple...
No one would pay attention at all.
No one would want to help him, nor was there any necessity.
It would only bring trouble to oneself.
After a long silence, Gu An finally said, "Is Yu Tu still logging at night?"
"He is, he keeps his head down and logs, but his body is truly resilient. If it had been anyone else, their foundation would have been damaged long ago," Yang Qi remarked with emotion.
"Just let him not worry about anything else and focus on the present," Gu An said.
Hearing this, Yang Qi nodded and said, "Alright."
Since Gu An said so, he must have some plans.
Exactly what, he did not know, but he would find out later.
Gu An had no intention of mediating too much in these people’s affairs.
Especially now.
He was actually still in a period of danger.
Although he had come out, who could know whether the Law Enforcement Hall would find evidence proving it was him who killed the person.
Once it became known, his own safety would be unguaranteed.
Others would be even more unlucky.
Wait for some time.
To see the current situation.
Besides, things related to him should spread soon.
Such as climbing the ranks in the Merit Hall, such as providing Bamboo Rice at the Sword Tomb.
It would raise his reputation to a certain height.
As such, the negative impact from before would lessen a lot.
Safety should also be more secure.
But there are new troubles.
There could be a likelihood of people attempting to woo him.
Back then, Zuo Youyan was wooed, and his ending was even more tragic than being vilified.
Gu An sighed, hoping that his weakness would make others feel no need to woo him.
After all, who has ever heard of a forty-nine-year-old Golden Core?
A forty-nine-year-old Golden Core, no matter how, could be considered genius.
But an old genius, somewhat odd.
After asking Yang Qi to quickly send off the envelope, Gu An left.
Before leaving, he kept the messy things that Nanyun Dong gave him.
Back at Heavenly Suspension Peak, Gu An noticed that comments about him began to surface.
But there were many kinds, some people thought they should thank him.
Some wondered if there was someone behind him, to actually give away such significant Merits.
There was also another theory—that he just seized the Merits of fellow senior brothers and sisters, who kindly didn’t hold it against him.
Nothing more than a small person achieving some success.
What voices would prevail in the end, Gu An did not know.
As long as it doesn’t affect him for now.
Coming to a remote lakeside, Gu An saw his own residence, then he saw noodles on the lake’s surface, with a large belly looking utterly disconsolate.
Seems like it had been fed a lot.
No need to look to know, someone was in the courtyard.
When Gu An entered, he found three sticks of incense in front of the Divine Tree.
What was this for?
He didn’t know, and didn’t care to ask.
He would find out after asking later.
He then headed to the hall.
Sure enough, he saw Chu Meng sitting inside eating peanuts.
Seeing Gu An, she wasn’t surprised, she just said, "I thought you wouldn’t come back here, I have already fed your pet.
It’s quite picky, no wonder it never grows much. Do you want me to feed it often?"
Gu An thought for a moment and decided it was better not to.
He was afraid one day the noodles would go out and not come back.
Who knows what it would do outside?
If it steals something unspeakable again and places it in his dwelling, how should he deal with it?
Setting aside that thought, Gu An said earnestly, "No need to trouble senior, noodles is a fish, and fish in the wild usually go three days without nine meals.
So not eating does no harm."
Chu Meng didn’t say anything but took some vegetables out of her Storage Treasure and asked curiously, "How many people have you killed recently?"
"I don’t know what senior is talking about," Gu An replied.
Without lifting her head, Chu Meng said, "I just told you Si Wuye was targeting you, and the next day he died, and you’re saying you didn’t do it?
Does that mean you’ve reached Primordial Spirit Perfection now?"
Gu An: "..."
You’ve misjudged, I’m in the late stage of Primordial Spirit.
Gu An sat down calmly and shook his head, "Senior is mistaken."
"Late-stage Primordial Spirit?" Chu Meng raised an eyebrow at Gu An.
Gu An: "...."
Did I just say you guessed the cultivation wrong?
"Just by looking at your expression, I knew my guess was not far off," Chu Meng laughed.
Gu An was slightly surprised and subconsciously touched his face, "What expression?"
"Expressionless, huh, I was just kidding, and you actually asked, do you feel like your expression has exposed you again?" Chu Meng shook her head in disbelief, "You’re not confident enough."
