Chapter 58: If you were asked to be the sect leader, what would you do?
Seventh level spiritual tree!
This is the grade of Cang Teng Tree. How could Taixuan Sect produce a spiritual tree comparable to Qianqiu Pavilion’s sacred tree?
Could it be that the Cang Teng tree in the Bajing Cave Heaven is not a true sacred tree, or it has not yet fully grown? Gu An suddenly became excited. He really couldn't refuse such a treasure.
What's the difficulty in keeping the saint? Doesn't she like reading?
Write her some extra chapters of Investiture of the Gods! "When will the Saint arrive?" Gu An took a deep breath and asked. He did not show the joy in his heart, but pretended to be worried and deep.
Gu Zong smiled and said, "It will be here in a year at most, so you don't have to be stressed."
Gu Yu on the side teased, "Don't worry about her asking you to marry her. After all, there is a huge difference in cultivation. She just likes your books."
Gu An nodded. He was not that narcissistic. There were so many people in the world who liked The Investiture of the Gods.
Gu Zong looked at Mr. Tian who was standing nearby and asked, "How is your stay here?"
Old Tian nodded and said, "Very good, the Valley Master treats me very well."
Gu An felt helpless. Did Gu Zong bring his distant relatives into this because he was afraid that he wouldn't be suspicious?
no!
You have to perform the whole act! Gu An looked at Gu Zong, hesitant to speak.
Gu Zong seemed to see his confusion and said with a smile, "He has known your identity as Pan An for a long time. It is precisely because he likes Investiture of the Gods that I let him come here. Apart from him, only the people in the Elders' Hall know about it. Don't worry, we are more afraid of your identity as Pan An being exposed than you are now."
Before the publication of The Investiture of the Gods, there had always been disciples writing books, but the impact brought by Pan An was unprecedented. No one had ever thought that books could bring more disciples and cultivation resources to a sect, and even help the sect to conduct diplomacy with other forces. Especially after the publication of the book by Immortal Taixuan, the eyes of the whole world fell on the Taixuan Sect, and he, who was in a high position, saw it most clearly.
Gu An breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Yu suddenly said: "Zhou Tongyou is very good to Gu Yu. I take back what I said before. Don't let Gu Yu bully him."
Gu An looked at him with a strange look.
Gu Zong smiled and said, "My image is not bad either. Wherever I go, I can hear people mention my name and ask me when I will return to help my son deal with that evil guy."
"Ahem, I can't reveal it in advance. If I do, there will be no suspense."
"Too."
Gu An changed the subject and asked the Holy Maiden of Daotian Sect. He had to find out as much as possible so that he could better face the Holy Maiden of Daotian Sect.
Gu Zong began to introduce the saint.
Shen Zhen, a person with three spiritual roots, is the youngest daughter of the Daotian Sect's leader. Her aptitude is not top-notch, but she has a high understanding of music and magic, and she usually loves playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Just by listening to the introduction, Gu An felt that Shen Zhen’s personality was not that strong.
He likes music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and should have a good temper.
…
Late at night, Bajing Cave.
Under the vine tree, Gu An was practicing swordplay, practicing the Wood Spirit Sword Technique.
The Mu Ling sword technique was the sword technique that Zuo Lin taught to Gu An in order to test his ability. This sword technique was not a rare one and could be bought in the outer city.
Because it has the wood attribute, Gu An plans to practice it on his own and not invest his life into this sword technique.
However, isn't real time also lifespan? Relying on the attainments of the Taicang Jingshen Sword and the qualifications of the top-grade five-element heavenly spiritual roots, Gu An found the feeling of genius in the wood spirit swordsmanship.
He has already mastered the Wood Spirit Sword Technique and is now pursuing a higher realm.
Each kind of skill, spell, and unique knowledge has a small realm. According to his summary, from low to high, they are beginner, getting a glimpse of the art, mastering the art, some success, mastering it all, reaching the pinnacle, and returning to nature.
Gu An found it very interesting that he felt like he was improving his proficiency by playing games.
The ten-foot-long Haolong was staring at Gu An practicing swordsmanship on the tree. Now it had the majesty of a real dragon and had not grown crooked.
Gu An moved within a three-meter radius under the tree, leaving a trail of afterimages, as if there were nearly ten people practicing swordsmanship. The Tianxu Sword in his hand was extremely sharp, and full of energy. This energy dissipated after being thrown two meters away, without damaging the flowers and plants.
After practicing for an hour, Gu An finally stopped.
Clang——
The Tianxu sword was sheathed, making a light and ethereal sound like a dragon's roar.
He threw the Tianxu Sword into the storage bag and stretched lazily.
Haolong descended from the sky and made a childish voice like a boy: "Master, you are so powerful, can you teach me?"
Gu An glanced at it and asked with a smile: "Can your dragon claws hold a sword?"
"Is it impossible to use claws as swords?" Haolong asked, blinking his eyes.
When Gu An heard this, he was stunned.
There is something! He immediately took out the sword manual of the Wood Spirit Sword Technique that he had drawn from his storage bag, threw it to Haolong, and said, "Then you practice it yourself. When I come back, ask me if you have any questions."
Haolong grabbed the sword manual with his dragon claws and said quickly, "Remember to bring me roast chicken!"
Gu An smiled and nodded, then turned and left.
Haolong landed, placed the sword manual on the ground, and flipped through it with his claws.
After leaving Bajing Cave Heaven, Gu An walked into the forest. Under the cover of night, the forest was full of snow, but he left no footprints.
The next morning, Gu An had just finished practicing with his disciples and was about to head to the Third Medicine Valley when Ye Lan arrived.
Since his junior sister is here, Gu An naturally has to accompany her.
The two went into the attic to chat.
Gu An first asked about her recent situation. No matter how busy she was, she would come to visit Gu An every year. It was impossible for Gu An to say that he was not touched.
"Since last year, disciples from the outer sect have often gone missing. No matter how hard our Law Enforcement Hall investigates, we can't find the real culprit. But the Demon Exorcism Hall always finds the spies from the demon sect to admit their guilt." Ye Lan sighed.
After the sect leader changed, she and Lu Jiujia no longer had any contact, mainly because the two sects had never gotten along, to the point where they were incompatible.
Gu An smiled and said, "Then let the Demon Exorcist Hall catch him. This will give you time to practice."
Ye Lan shook her head and said, "It's not that simple. The leader of the Demon Hall wants to annex the Law Enforcement Hall, and the Great Elder of the Outer Sect seems to have the same intention. If our Law Enforcement Hall does nothing, it will be disbanded sooner or later."
"It's okay. If it disbands, we can just come back. The elixirs that Senior Brother can provide are no worse than the treatment in the Law Enforcement Hall."
"That won't do. If you give it to me, what will you do?"
Ye Lan refused directly, her face very serious.
Seeing this, Gu An didn't know what to say and could only change the subject and talk about other things.
Because Ye Lan wanted to stay a few more days, Gu An decided to stay in Xuan Gu until after the Spring Festival.
…
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
After the Spring Festival, the winter snow melted completely. Gu An first went to Tianya Valley, harvested thousands of years of life, and then sowed seeds. After staying for two days, he came to the third medicine valley.
There are many people in Xuan Valley, and there are three monkey monsters in Tianya Valley, so both places are not deserted. But the third Yao Valley is different. Every time Gu An comes, it is dead silent.
Ye Yan and Mr. Tian both enjoyed the silence and did not disturb each other.
Gu An walked into a garden and began picking ripe herbs.
Mr. Tian came over and asked curiously, "Why do you always pick them yourself?"
Gu An replied, "I have to do something, and I pick the fruits myself and wrap them up, which gives me a sense of self-satisfaction that I am contributing to the sect."
Hearing this, Mr. Tian smiled and said, "You are indeed making a contribution, not just for self-satisfaction."
"I hope the higher-ups think the same way." Gu An chuckled as he picked the fruits.
Mr. Tian suddenly asked, "If I let you become the leader of the sect, what would you do?"
Gu An's heart trembled, but his actions did not stop. He said unhappily, "Don't think about it. You are not the sect master. How can you let me do it? Besides, I can only manage Medicine Valley, not the millions of disciples of Taixuan Sect."
"With my level of cultivation, if I really became the sect leader, who would be convinced?"
He didn't want to be the leader of a sect! He wanted to practice in seclusion and didn't want to face the pressure. If he became the leader of a sect and encountered an invincible enemy, could he escape?
Gu An is not a die-hard fan of Taixuan Sect!
Mr. Tian smiled and didn't ask any more questions.
After Gu An finished picking, he followed Gu An to the attic.
"Actually, I know a remarkable set of skills. Do you want to learn it? Even the elders of the ancient sect don't know about it." Old Tian suddenly asked.
"No, if I have that much time, wouldn't it be better to write a book? You can see that I don't practice normally, and my cultivation depends entirely on pills."
"You are still young, how can you be like this..."
"You don't understand, this is called enjoying life. I like to do things within my ability. Of course, this is just me. Everyone pursues different things."
Gu An said casually, why is this old guy talking so much today? Want to destroy my Taoism? Tian Lao wanted to continue talking, but suddenly there was a sound from the horizon. The two turned their heads and saw Gu Zong flying over with a magic weapon. Behind him stood a woman in black, wearing a black veil, revealing only a pair of bright and moving eyes.
Is the Saintess of Daotian Sect coming? Gu An asked Elder Tian to put the herbs into the house first, and he turned around to greet the two people from Gu Zong.
He threw a lifespan probe.
[Shen Zhen (Jie Dan Realm Level 2): 78/660/1050]
After the golden wheel landed, Gu Zong said with a smile: "Gu An, this is the Saintess of Daotian Sect, Shen Zhen, you must treat her well."
He turned to face Shen Zhen, who raised his hand to salute him. He nodded, then stepped on the golden wheel and left quickly.
Shen Zhen looked at Gu An, sizing her up carefully. Just by looking at her eyes, one could imagine that she was a rare beauty.
Gu An raised his hand and saluted, saying, "I am Gu An, nice to meet Miss Shen."
Shen Zhen nodded slightly and asked curiously, "Which one do you like better, The Investiture of the Gods or Immortal Taixuan?"
You test me right away?
Gu An remained calm and said, "I like them all. It's impossible for a person to like only one book. Different moods will make you want to read different books, right?"
When Shen Zhen heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Actually, I also wrote a book, would you like to take a look?" Shen Zhen said with a blink.
Gu An naturally would not refuse, and said, "Come upstairs and take a look?"
Shen Zhen nodded, then followed Gu An to the second floor of the attic.
Gu An originally wanted to keep the door open, after all, it would be awkward for a man and a woman to be alone in a room, but Shen Zhen closed the door.
The two walked to the table and sat down. Shen Zhen took out a book from her storage bag. Her brows frowned slightly, and she seemed a little hesitant. After thinking for a while, she handed the book to Gu An.
Gu An took it and looked at it, his eyelids twitching wildly.
