After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 317 - 248: I Meant to Be a Good Person

Outside the Law Enforcement Hall.

Mei Jianghe successfully brought Gu An out.

Entered on the same day, came out on the same day.

"Junior Brother is indeed a straightforward person," Mei Jianghe sighed, "I’ve never seen someone who leaves the Law Enforcement Hall at noon only to return in the afternoon.

However, this time Junior Brother is still at a loss; during a spar, one should stop at the right point.

Some minor injuries that heal easily don’t mean much.

But having an arm twisted off is somewhat serious.

Junior Brother’s Merit did get deducted.

But you are still within the top three.

It won’t affect much.

After all, Junior Brother’s merits are not limited to the bamboo forest; the real bulk of the merits comes from that tree.

It will soon be known to all.

Junior Brother will likely soon be renowned."

Gu An understood what the other wanted to say: that starting a fight was nothing serious, but causing grievous harm posed a problem.

Not resulting in death or disability, such altercations almost always count as sparring among fellow Sect members.

The Law Enforcement Hall usually wouldn’t intervene much.

Or to put it another way, as long as the injuries can heal,

there’s no big issue.

For example, if a knife wound can mend,

if broken bones can be reset,

then it’s not a big deal; one just needs to rest and recuperate.

With this, Gu An roughly understood the Law Enforcement Hall’s bottom line for punishment.

Moreover, this time initiating the fight was primarily to test the speed of the Law Enforcement Hall’s response.

Speaking bluntly, for someone like me to kill a Primordial Spirit up close, there is absolutely no possibility of escaping.

And this was under the circumstances of the Law Enforcement Hall’s Magic Treasures not being complete.

If the Magic Treasures were all there,

then there would be even less of a chance.

But Senior Brother Shi was different, he had people under him.

And there’s no need for him to issue orders directly.

So, if I could evade once, how many times could I do it again?

Eventually, I would undoubtedly fall into his trap.

The consequences would be unimaginable.

But now, even if Zuo Youyan takes action, he could only resort to killing people, but cannot silently and tracelessly escape.

The chances of being caught are too high.

If I were to be caught...

Merit Hall would not be able to speak on my behalf.

With both personal and material evidence present, and those who dislike me would even add insult to injury.

Even if I were to survive in the end, my age and cultivation level would certainly become known.

Fifty years old with Primordial Spirit Perfection.

Who could compare with me?

Chu Meng?

Don’t be fooled by her being formidable in front of me. The news about Hua Jiyang and Lu Ruan tells a different story.

They all only think that Chu Meng is twenty-four with Perfect Foundation Establishment.

She dares not to reveal her identity, so what about me?

There can be no good outcome.

"Thank you for the trouble, Senior Brother," Gu An gratefully stated.

These days, it has been this Senior Brother running around.

After I became listed, the most laborious person has been this Senior Brother.

Even though it’s for my merits.

But still, the proper attitude has to be there.

After all, normally the Merit Hall would just apply pressure, not to the extent of personally picking people up.

Some things need to be understood whether they are extra kindness or not.

If one takes everything for granted as others’ duty, then one becomes further away from these things.

Finally, Gu An added, "If there is a chance in the future to obtain new unknown things, I will definitely send them to Senior Brother."

Useless things, if Chu Meng doesn’t want them, giving them to this Senior Brother is no problem.

After all, these are Merits, which can be exchanged for other things.

"By the way, Junior Brother mentioned last time about exchanging for a Cultivation Technique. Now, even after exchanging, Junior Brother remains in the top ten of the list.

Would you like to exchange now?" Mei Jianghe asked with a smile.

Gu An pondered for a moment and then asked, "Can I only exchange for the Returning to Void Chapter?"

"Yes, this technique does not belong to our Sect but comes from the Longevity Sect.

Currently, only up to the Returning to Void Chapter has been collected.

If Junior Brother wishes to have it, he must seek other means.

Of course, one can exchange for valuable things enough from the Merit Hall, then exchange for the technique with someone else," Mei Jianghe explained.

Pausing momentarily, he continued, "However, Junior Brother is just at the Golden Core stage, there’s no need to rush for the Chapters after Returning to Void."

Gu An nodded: "That’s true, then I’ll trouble Senior Brother."

Afterwards, Gu An received the Innate Longevity Technique Primordial Spirit Chapter and the Returning to Void Chapter.

The Primordial Spirit Chapter he already had.

This time the main aim was the Returning to Void Chapter; the Primordial Spirit was just a bonus.

Both techniques could be comprehended in one go.

They could also be sold off.

As it was getting late, Gu An returned to Heavenly Suspension Peak.

Upon returning, he saw noodles swimming on the water surface.

When it saw him, noodles excitedly ran on the water.

Then jumped towards Gu An.

Looking complacently as if seeking credit.

This gave Gu An a sense of crisis.

Sure enough, noodles floated above, opening its mouth in front of him.

The water-blue, smooth fabric, familiar scent, brand-new style.

Gu An’s pupils constricted.

He immediately pressed down on noodles’ mouth.

"This mouth, must not be opened."

Gu An sternly warned noodles.

Noodles struggled a few times but failed to break free.

Gu An took out peanuts, attached Qi Sea Sky Gang to them, and then tossed them into noodles’ mouth.

Then he pressed down on the mouth, waiting.

After a short while.

Noodles spat out foam, fainting away.

With that, Gu An finally breathed a sigh of relief and carelessly threw noodles into the lake.

He had narrowly escaped a calamity.

Later, Gu An returned to the courtyard. Fat Tiger sat under the tree, munching on the tribute next to it.

Given by Nangong Qiyue, though Gu An hadn’t seen her lately.

He didn’t know when she came over.

Neither did he know if she had discovered noodles.

Noodles were naturally good at hiding, now having consumed Qi Sea Sky Gang with Xuanhuang Qi, should be even better at concealing itself.

Thusly, it shouldn’t be possible for Nangong Qiyue to notice anything.

Her background seemed exceptional no matter how one looked at it.

If she were to learn that this side was where the bellyband was pilfered...

Although I am old, I do not wish to tarnish my reputation later in my life.

"Big Brother, you’re back," Blood Tiger immediately put down the fruit in his hand and got up to greet him.

"Why does Elder prefer to transform into this appearance?" Gu An curiously asked.
