After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 328 - 253: Heaven’s Justice

Listening to the recent events, Gu An felt quite emotional.

Now, about half of the shops in Qingmu City are closed.

It is not like they have all left Qingmu City.

Many people are just watching and waiting.

If there’s no problem afterward, they naturally don’t want to leave.

But if there are issues, they would have to find a way to leave.

Under the Demon Sect, who could know the situation?

As for those families, they basically cannot leave.

Because if they can establish themselves in Qingmu City, it must be influenced, more or less, by the backing of the Cangmu Sect.

As long as the people behind them are still in the Sect, they cannot leave.

Unless those people go to a new Sect.

Then, they would most likely have to move.

And build a new city over there.

During their conversation, a customer arrived at the small shop.

It was a rather frail old woman.

She gingerly peeked inside.

Upon seeing Gu An, she was quite delighted.

However, she still respectfully and courteously began, "Met Immortal Master, Immortal Leader."

"Do you want to buy a talisman?" Qin Shufu spoke.

Hearing this, the old woman, with her head lowered, nervously replied: "Yes, it’s like this, I previously passed by and saw the Immortal Master cleaning.

So, I wanted to ask if the Immortal Master still needs help?

I can work without taking Spirit Stones; receiving talisman will be fine."

Qin Shufu frowned.

Cleaning?

That’s not needed at all.

Even if cleaning was needed here, it would just be a matter of waving a hand.

But before he could refuse, he heard another person’s voice: "Needed."

Hearing this, Qin Shufu looked somewhat surprised.

Gu An maintained his smile and said, "What does the boss think?"

"Then three Spirit Stones a month," the boss tried saying.

"Old lady, did you hear?" Gu An smiled and said, "Three Spirit Stones okay?"

"Yes, yes, it just feels a bit too much," the old woman seriously said.

"Do your job well, and if it’s done well, you’ll get talisman," Qin Shufu casually said: "Just come over in the afternoon every day."

"Yes, yes, thank you Immortal Master." She was so excited that she was about to kneel.

But just as she was bending her knees, she was lifted by a force.

Gu An smiled and said, "Our boss is kind."

"Yes, yes," the old woman gleefully said.

Afterward, she left.

"Who is she?" Qin Shufu was somewhat puzzled.

Gu An softly said, "Some people have a hard life."

He did not say anything more.

Qin Shufu did not ask any further, only saying, "Her body isn’t holding up well."

"Yes, does the boss think she needs some Elixir Pills to ease it?" Gu An asked.

"In herself, nearly hopeless, won’t live many years.

But now, she won’t live past three months, it just hasn’t erupted yet, it’s internal damage, probably got hit by some Demon Beast," Qin Shufu said after a moment of silence: "To cure such internal injuries, she needs the Heavenly Blood Pill, which has the gentlest medicinal properties, best suited for her.

But this kind of Elixir Pill is prepared for weak people, difficult to produce.

The price is even more costly, roughly three thousand Spirit Stones."

Qin Shufu shook his head and sighed, "Looking at her, she doesn’t seem like someone who could afford it."

Gu An sat at his spot, tapping on the table, seemingly pondering something.

Finally, he sighed and said, "Sometimes, the troubles of people are found by themselves."

Qin Shufu was puzzled.

As the sound faded, Gu An gave Qin Shufu three thousand Spirit Stones, "Boss, help me with something."

When he received the three thousand Spirit Stones, Qin Shufu guessed what Gu An wanted to do.

But he still didn’t understand.

Why?

That afternoon.

Zeng Lan exited from the Sect.

Her complexion was pale; theoretically, after entering the Inner Sect, the basic Spirit Stones would have been enough for her to rest properly.

Not to continue depleting her foundation.

But...

She knew, she could wait, but her mother couldn’t.

It was necessary to be prepared ahead.

Save up enough Spirit Stones, just in case.

Today again, she would buy some Elixir Pills and then give them to her mother; this would make her feel a lot more comfortable.

If it weren’t for her joining the Inner Sect, such a life would have been a luxury.

But she was curious where Yu Tu had gone, having not seen him for a long time.

She rather hoped that he had succeeded in Foundation Establishment.

As for herself, there was no hope.

Now, she was still at the Qi Refining Seventh Layer.

Maybe it would stay this way for her lifetime, but she didn’t mind.

Being able to accompany her mother, everything was enough.

While she thought this way, suddenly, a ’ding’ sound.

She turned her head to look at the side, a beautiful Jade Pendant fell to the ground.

On it was still a robust Spiritual Energy.

Probably very valuable.

Then she looked back and saw a masked man quickly leaving,

Seemingly avoiding something.

Seeing this, Zeng Lan instinctively said, "Senior, please wait."

Hearing this, the masked person suddenly turned to look at Zeng Lan.

A terrifying aura burst forth, making it difficult for Zeng Lan to breathe.

She pointed to the Jade Pendant on the ground and said, "Senior, it seems you dropped something."

After glancing at the thing on the ground, the masked person casually beckoned, and the Jade Pendant was taken back.

Then a Storage Treasure fell in front of Zeng Lan: "A reward for you."

With that, the masked person quickly disappeared.

Zeng Lan felt strangely wonderful.

After that, she opened the Storage Treasure.

The moment she saw the contents inside, her hands trembled.

Almost could not keep hold of the Storage Treasure.

She vigilantly looked around, a strange feeling in her heart.

It seemed like the good life might have come.

Since it was given by the person, there should be no problem.

Did she encounter a noble person upon leaving?

She had always heard about such people, never expecting to encounter one herself.

"Heaven has eyes."

Her heart was thrilled; then, she steadied her mind, deciding to go back and tell her mother the good news.

But when she returned, she saw her mother didn’t look well.

"Xiao Lan," the old woman excitedly said, "I’ve found new work, it’s cleaning, three Spirit Stones."
