Chapter 57: The Wind of the Immortal Lord, the Saintess of Daotian Sect
Gu An took the token of the Exorcist Hall and did not refuse. He looked at Lu Jiujia and said with a pleased smile: "Not bad, you are now living the life you wanted in the beginning."
Hearing this, Lu Jiujia felt even happier. He smiled and said, "In the past few years, we were indeed walking on thin ice. I didn't dare to contact you because I was afraid of implicating you. Now the storm has passed and the sky is clear. We can visit each other more often in the future."
After the two exchanged a few pleasantries, Lu Jiujia led his men away in a hurry, saying that they were going to capture the evil spies.
Gu An looked at his back with a slightly complicated mood.
The Demon-Exorcising Hall has a bad reputation. It is the most powerful hall in the outer sect, but also the most hated hall. It is said that if anyone offends the Demon-Exorcising Hall, the Demon-Exorcising Hall will accuse him of being a spy for the demonic sect, and that person will be dead.
Gu An clearly felt that the people around him were looking at him with disdain and disgust.
He didn't think any more and turned away.
Half an hour later.
He came to the third medicine valley. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the valley, he saw Old Tian standing in front of the stone tablet, pinching his beard with one hand, wondering what he was thinking.
Over the years, Gu An and Master Tian have become familiar with each other. Master Tian behaves like a menial disciple. Zhen Qin, Su Han, and Ye Yan have not noticed his difference, and Gu An also treats him as a menial disciple.
"Mr. Tian, why are you standing here?" Gu An greeted him as he walked towards him.
Old Tian looked at Gu An with a kind smile on his face. His eyelids could hardly open, giving people the feeling that one foot was about to be in the ground.
"Valley Master, I was wondering why this valley is called the Third Medicine Valley. Do you have two more medicine valleys?" Old Tian asked with a smile.
Gu An walked to the side of the stone tablet and chuckled, "That's not the case. Apart from this valley, I only have one medicine valley. The reason why it is called the Third Medicine Valley is to express my principle of doing things. That is, I don't fight for the first or second place, but I can fight for the third place. I think anything that stands out too much will cause trouble. The first three are all very powerful, but the third is the safest."
When Mr. Tian heard this, his eyelids opened slightly and he fell into deep thought.
Gu An patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Today I brought roast chicken and fine wine, let's have a taste together. This is a spiritual chicken raised by the outer sect, and it cost me ten low-grade spiritual stones for one."
Mr. Tian came to his senses and followed him.
Ye Yan did not practice shooting at the entrance of the valley, but on the path in the center of the park. He stood straight, holding the spear in one hand, with his eyes closed. In his words, he was feeling the connection between himself and the gun.
Gu An did not ask about the spear skills and body tempering methods he practiced. He was not interested in spear skills, and the Xuanhuang Dragon Qigong was a body tempering method, so he did not need to practice it.
"Yan'er, come and drink with us to celebrate your senior brother and sister becoming outer disciples." Gu An shouted loudly.
Elder Tian asked curiously, "Over the years, you have refined all the herbs that belong to you into pills for your disciples. What do you want? Even if they are indebted to you, the relationship will fade over time. Why don't you use all the resources on yourself?"
"And me, I'm already old and I don't know how long I can live. Wouldn't it be a waste to give me the elixir?"
After spending several years together, Master Tian had a good impression of Gu An. Gu An treated him very well and did not ignore him like other disciples. He was even willing to share elixirs to help him improve his cultivation.
Before his realm fell, he had never imagined that there were such selfless people in Taixuan Sect.
He even regretted his previous neglect of the outer sect.
Gu An smiled and said, "I have mediocre talent. If I am too obsessed with improving my cultivation, it will make my life miserable. It is better to give it to those younger generations who still have hope. As for you, Mr. Tian, although you are older than me, you are also my disciple. Naturally, I have to treat you equally. Even if my cultivation cannot increase much, it can increase my Qi and blood, so that you can live a better life, right?"
He looked at Ye Yan with a smile on his face.
The sunlight shone down and illuminated the side of his face, which actually touched Mr. Tian a little.
Mr. Tian suddenly thought of what Gu Zong said when he recommended Gu An.
"Don't look at that kid's low level of cultivation. He was able to write The Investiture of the Gods, which shows that he has a broad mind. After gaining fame and fortune, he was still able to stay in Medicine Valley and make tireless contributions to Taixuan Sect. In terms of character and bearing, I think he is better than a great cultivator in the Transcendental Realm."
As he thought about it, the corners of Mr. Tian's mouth curled up, as if he was infected by Gu An's smile.
Soon, the three of them sat around the stone table and began to drink and eat meat.
Gu An told what he had seen and heard today. In addition to the matters of Zhen Qin and Su Han, he also mentioned the Demon Exorcism Hall, wanting to see what Mr. Tian’s attitude was.
However, Mr. Tian remained indifferent and just grabbed the chicken leg and smacked his lips.
Ye Yan said, "I think the Exorcist Hall is pretty good. I encountered demon cultivators several times in Xuan Valley before. The outer sect is too chaotic. The Exorcist Hall has a bad reputation. I guess there are demon spies secretly fanning the flames."
Gu An nodded, this is possible.
After the Demon-Exorcism Hall was established, Xuan Gu indeed did not encounter any more demonic cultivators, and no spies from Qianqiu Pavilion came looking for him.
"Master, after I build my foundation, I don't want to stay in Taixuan Sect. I want to join the army." Ye Yan suddenly said.
Good fellow! Talking about changing jobs in front of the former master?
Gu An asked, "Why?"
Ye Yan's face was firm, and he said, "The Taixuan Sect pursues spiritual roots and it is difficult for someone like me to make a name for myself. Besides, joining the army can help me slay demons and save the people of the world. My parents were killed by demons, and I swore since I was a child that when I learned magic, I would travel the world and become a knight who slays demons and eliminates evil."
Mr. Tian looked up at him and nodded slightly.
Gu An smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to have such great ambitions. Master supports you."
Ye Yan smiled, immediately raised his wine bowl, toasted Gu An, then poured another bowl and clinked bowls with Mr. Tian.
The atmosphere became more harmonious. After Ye Yan opened his heart, he talked more than usual, and even Mr. Tian became more talkative.
"Master, are you going to transfer disciples from Xuan Gu later?" Ye Yan asked.
Gu An shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it after you build your foundation. I'm afraid that others will disturb your enlightenment. With me and Old Master Tian, we are more than enough to handle it."
All the parks are back on track and there are not many daily chores.
After hearing this, Ye Yan was even more moved.
Gu An began to talk about the future with him, drinking jar of wine after jar until he was drunk.
…
In late summer, the scorching heat between heaven and earth is receding.
Gu An stood on the grass in Xuan Valley, watching the four monks from the Demon-Exorcising Hall fly away in silence.
Wu Xin came over and said, "Brother, why are you in a daze? There are so many boxes, why don't you come and check them?"
The four people just now were sent by Lu Jiujia to deliver gifts to Xuan Gu. The four of them waited for half a day and only left when Gu An came back.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Gu An retracted his gaze, looked at Wu Xin, and said with a smile: "You come and count them, I guess they are all herbs."
When Wu Xin heard this, a smile appeared on his face. This feeling of being trusted was really great.
Now Gu An has handed over all the management power of Xuan Valley to Wu Xin. He is only responsible for picking the fruits. Wu Xin has no objection to this. Since Gu An can help him share some of the work, how can he resist?
What he wanted was power, not to drive Gu An away. Without Gu An, he always felt that Xuan Gu was missing something, so when Gu An was away, he basically practiced.
Gu An turned and walked towards the teleportation array.
After a while, he arrived at the third medicine valley.
Ever since Zhen Qin and Su Han became outer disciples, this medicine valley has become very deserted. After Ye Yan finished his own work, he went to practice shooting. Old Tian was also a taciturn person.
Gu An walked down from the platform and saw Mr. Tian squatting in the garden, admiring a fourth-tier medicinal herb.
This old man often daydreams, and Gu An has gotten used to it.
He went up to the attic and took out the Ziwei Formation Record to read.
In the past year, he has been secretly studying the Ziwei Formation Record and has gained a lot of insights.
After several hours, Gu An felt something and immediately put the Ziwei Formation Record into his storage bag, then waited in the house.
"Gu An! Gu An! Come out quickly!"
Gu An heard Gu Yu's shouting, which became louder and louder. The guy started shouting loudly before he even landed on the ground.
He stood up, walked out of the attic, and stood on the balcony on the second floor. He saw Gu Zong and Gu Yu flying towards him on a golden wheel at an extremely fast speed.
After landing, Gu Zong put the magic weapon into his sleeve. Gu Yu took a step forward and said excitedly: "Gu An, your..."
“Ahem!”
Gu Zong faked a cough, and Gu Yu realized something and quickly shut up.
Gu An stood upstairs and said with a smile, "Come upstairs and talk."
Gu Yu nodded and hurried upstairs, while Gu Zong turned around and waved to Mr. Tian.
A group of four people gathered in a house on the second floor. Gu Zong raised his hand to cast a spell, and actually created two bans on the windowsill with his hands.
Gu Yu pulled Gu An to sit down and said excitedly: "Tai Xuan Immortal Venerable has completely succeeded! The entire cultivation world is watching. Not only that, even other dynasties and sects around are purchasing this book from Tai Xuan Sect!"
“Hahaha, when Taixuan Immortal Venerable first appeared a few years ago, so many people mocked Pan An for running out of ideas. I didn’t expect that after only a few years, they are all following and looking forward to me, Gu Yu, proving my reputation as a genius!”
Seeing how excited he was, Gu An didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He was not surprised at all that Immortal Taixuan became popular. After all, this kind of story of rising against the will of heaven and slapping the faces of powerful people would definitely have a huge emotional impact on the world of immortal cultivation.
Gu Zong said, "I came here today not only to talk about this matter, but it is also related to this matter. The Saint of Daotian Sect is preparing to come to Taixuan Sect to practice. She is coming for you. Daotian Sect comes from the Dayu Dynasty, which is adjacent to the Taicang Dynasty. It is the first sect of the Dayu Dynasty. Its Saint is the daughter of the leader of Daotian Sect. Her arrival can enable Taixuan Sect and Daotian Sect to establish a long-term friendly relationship."
"I will bring the Saintess of Daotian Sect to see you then. Don't worry, this matter will not be spread out. You only need to see her. She has promised not to reveal your identity."
Gu An felt overwhelmed after hearing this.
Am I part of diplomacy?
Gu Zong stroked his beard and smiled, "Tai Xuan Immortal Venerable has played a great role in promoting the development of Tai Xuan Sect. The Elders Hall admires you very much. If you can let the Saintess of Dao Tian Sect stay, the Elders Hall will give you a sapling of a seventh-level spiritual tree. Once this tree grows up, it will significantly improve the local spiritual energy. Even if your aptitude is mediocre, it will not be difficult for you to form a pill in the future."
"I originally wanted to give you a technique and a high-level magic weapon, but Yu'er said that you hate fighting and only like to grow flowers and plants, so I changed it to a seventh-level spiritual tree. This tree can also help the harvest of the entire medicine valley, and the benefits are immeasurable."
