Chapter 94 Gu An's Background
"Isn't the prince very virtuous? Senior Brother Li speaks highly of him, which means they should have a good relationship." Gu An asked in a voice transmission, his tone confused.
Yang Ni snorted, "That's just Li Ya being stupid. Over the years, the prince has sent many assassins to assassinate him, and I helped him block them once."
"Then why don't you tell Senior Brother Li and ask him to be more cautious?"
"It was his father's idea. His father was afraid of alerting the enemy. Once the relationship is torn, the prince will definitely force him to abdicate. His father's cultivation is mediocre, so he is no match for the prince. Once the prince succeeds, it will only be more dangerous for Li Ya."
Yang Ni’s answer made Gu An want to laugh.
Li Xuandao is almost reaching the Void Realm, how could he be a match for the prince? Thinking of this, Li Xuandao is actually a fellow practitioner of Gu An.
Until now, Li Xuandao has not revealed his cultivation level. The reason why Gu An knows his true cultivation level is because he has activated the golden finger.
"I understand. I will be careful of the prince." Gu An replied using the sound transmission technique.
Yang Ni nodded and stopped stopping him.
Looking at Gu An's departing back, Yang Ni shook her head slightly.
"How do I start to actually care about this kid's safety?"
Ever since Yang Ni learned that Gu An had a medicine valley in the inner sect, she felt that his identity was not simple. At least in Taixuan Sect, he would definitely be taken care of and it would be difficult for him to get into trouble.
Soon, Yang Ni stopped thinking about it. In the next few days, the evening twilight flowers that she had planted with her own hands would bloom, and she was looking forward to the sight of them blooming.
The other side.
Gu An came to the third medicine valley and walked all the way to the Xuanqing tree.
The Xuanqing tree has grown into a big tree with dense leaves. The Bailing Rat is taking a nap under the tree. Since the Xuanqing tree provided shade, it seldom runs around and sleeps under the tree all day.
Gu An was not disgusted by this, but was looking forward to it.
Lu Baitian once said that the Xuanqing Tree can not only enhance the spiritual energy of an area, but also increase one's understanding by gaining enlightenment under the tree.
Bai Lingshu sleeps under the Xuanqing tree all day. Will he attain enlightenment in his dreams? Let's experiment! If it works, he will also take a nap under the tree in the future.
Gu An took out an ancient gold-eating worm from the worm bag on his waist and let it fly to the tree. Then he found Xiaochuan and asked Xiaochuan to put 100 kilograms of iron ore under the tree every month to feed the ancient gold-eating worm.
The best thing about Ogawa is that he doesn't ask too many questions and just agrees to the matter directly.
After checking the Xuanqing Tree, Gu An went to see the Human Face Tree and Purple Mist Bamboo in turn. After making sure that these treasures were growing smoothly, he began to inspect the Third Medicine Valley.
The Third Medicine Valley now grows many high-level medicinal herbs. When Lu Baitian came to him last year, he specifically applied to expand the number of menial disciples. Lu Baitian directly agreed, and the number of people soared to three hundred.
Even with three hundred people, Gu An still felt that it was not enough. However, if he wanted to be promoted, he had to produce enough results to prove himself.
It was not until the evening that Gu An returned to the attic.
He picked another batch of herbs today, gaining thousands of years of life, and is getting closer and closer to the million mark.
…
One morning a month later, after Gu An finished his exercises with the Xuan Gu disciples, he returned to the attic and spread out the map on the table.
This was drawn by a great monk from the Taixuan Sect himself. There are restrictions in it. When one probes his spiritual sense into it, he can even see the detailed terrain, making him feel like he is playing a VR real-life map from his previous life.
No wonder this map costs five high-quality spirit stones. It is truly worth the money.
Gu An immersed himself in it, looking for a suitable breakthrough point.
It was not until noon that someone from Xuan Valley came to visit. Yang Ni sent a message to Gu An: "The prince is here, you must handle it carefully, I cannot show up."
Upon hearing this, Gu An slowly put away the map, then stood up and walked out of the attic.
He came to the door and looked up, only to see a man in white clothes walking towards him with a folding fan in his hand. He was graceful and had a smile on his face, looking like a weak scholar.
Gu An threw out a lifespan probe.
[Li Dai (Nascent Soul Stage 1): 189/960/1250]
There is no special method of practice, and the cultivation is consistent inside and out.
Being in the Nascent Soul stage before the age of 200 is considered a genius.
Li Dai did not walk towards Gu An, but walked towards Chu Jingfeng who was inspecting the garden in front of the wooden fence.
"Chu Jingfeng, long time no see." Li Dai greeted from afar.
Chu Jingfeng looked back and frowned.
The two met and began to exchange greetings. Li Dai's laughter was very hearty, attracting the attention of other disciples in the valley.
Facing Li Dai, Chu Jingfeng seemed very nervous. It was basically Li Dai who talked about the past and he agreed with him.
The two chatted for a long time before Li Dai walked towards Gu An.
He came to the attic, clasped his fists and saluted towards Gu An upstairs, and said: "I am Li Dai, from Cangzhou. May I ask if you are the Valley Master Gu An?"
Gu An raised his hand and saluted, saying, "Greetings to His Royal Highness, I am Gu An. Can you come up and talk?"
Li Dai smiled and nodded, then went upstairs.
The errand disciples became excited, as they did not expect that this person was actually the crown prince.
Although they had already joined the immortal cultivation sect, they were still very curious about the current crown prince. Why did the crown prince look for the valley master? Several people surrounded Chu Jingfeng and asked how the two knew each other before.
Gu An and Li Dai chatted in the house for a full half hour. When Gu An sent him downstairs, his face was full of smiles. Before leaving, he even held Gu An's hand, which made Gu An feel awkward.
"Junior Brother Gu, you and I really hit it off right away. I'll have to talk to you next time I return to Taixuan Sect." Li Dai smiled warmly, looking very innocent.
Gu An agreed to his request and watched him fly out of Xuan Valley.
The two of them didn't talk about anything before. Li Dai seemed to be here to make friends. They also talked about Li Ya. Li Dai's words were full of concern. If Yang Ni hadn't reminded him before, Gu An would have really thought they were good brothers.
Until leaving, Li Dai did not make any requests, nor did he recruit Gu An.
Gu An could sense that there was a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm hiding in the woods nearby, and he was probably the one protecting Li Dai.
About ten miles away from Xuan Valley, the smile on Li Dai's face disappeared and his expression became gloomy.
An old man in a green robe flew to his side and whispered, "Your Highness, there is a Nascent Soul cultivator in the valley."
"Yes, I have sensed it. It is Yang Ni. Father actually sent Yang Ni to guard him. This person must have a complicated relationship. Let's check his background and find out what his identity is in Taixuan Sect."
Li Dai said in a cold voice, his eyes were full of murderous intent when he mentioned Yang Ni.
The old man in green robe asked, "If he has no backers, should we arrest him?"
"Let me meet the sect leader first. The sect leader's attitude is crucial. If the sect leader supports me, I will kill Li Ya and Gu An directly to cut off my father's spies and pawns." Li Dai replied.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
The two of them didn't know that their conversation was heard by Gu An.
In front of Gu An, the Spirit Transformation Realm is not much different from an ant on the roadside.
"Want to kill me? Interesting."
Gu An smiled, he didn't take it to heart.
Even if he stood there and didn't fight back, Li Dai and the old man in green robe would have no chance of killing him.
Gu An turned around and went upstairs. Not long after, Yang Ni jumped in through the window.
Yang Ni's face was gloomy, and he said, "He should have noticed my presence. It seems that this kid's skills have reached perfection."
Gu An asked in confusion: "Do you have a grudge?"
"Nonsense, my sister's death was related to his mother, how can there be no hatred?"
"Does Senior Brother Li know about this?"
"I don't know, because I also suspect it, but I have no evidence. This guy came to Taixuan Sect, most likely to establish a relationship with Zun Ge or the Sect Master. Chu Tianqi, who supported him before, has already fled, so he must seek new support."
"Let him be."
Gu An took out a book and started reading.
Yang Ni stood beside him and asked in surprise, "Aren't you afraid that he will arrest you and plot against Li Ya?"
"What can I do? I am no match for him. Your Majesty asked you to come and see me, and I can't refuse. If he wants to kill me, I can't stop him either. It's better to just pretend that nothing happened and enjoy my life peacefully."
Gu An answered casually. His open-minded attitude made Yang Ni look at him with higher regard.
Yang Ni comforted him, "Don't worry, if he really wants to attack you, I will definitely protect you, as long as you don't run around."
Gu An loved to make trouble too much. Sometimes he went to the outer city, and sometimes he went to his inner medicine valley. She didn't dare to enter either place without permission.
"Thank you for your protection, senior. Don't worry, he won't dare to do anything reckless at the feet of Taixuan Sect." Gu An smiled at Yang Ni.
Yang Ni nodded, said no more, turned and left.
Gu An felt that she was hiding in the woods to practice martial arts. It seemed that she was under a lot of pressure. After so many years in Xuan Valley, she only practiced martial arts quietly late at night.
Gu An also wanted to become stronger. He called up his attribute panel, looked at his lifespan, and the corners of his mouth curled up.
Almost there!
…
In a mansion, there are birds singing and flowers blooming. The trees are covered with various bright flowers, and a stream surrounds a small pavilion.
Lu Baitian and Li Dai sat opposite each other in the pavilion. Li Dai picked up the wine pot and poured wine for Lu Baitian.
"Being the crown prince for a hundred years is indeed difficult for you. Some of the voices from the people have reached my ears over the years."
Lu Baitian took the wine glass and said casually.
Upon hearing this, Li Dai sighed and said, "Father has done a good job, but unfortunately his cultivation is too poor to suppress the governors and noble families. Under the powerful exterior of the Taicang Dynasty lies suffering and darkness. I want the people of the world to live a good life, and my mother's family has promised to fully support me."
Lu Baitian looked at the stream beside him instead of staring at Li Dai. He said casually, "It doesn't matter to Taixuan Sect who becomes the emperor. What matters is that we must live up to Taixuan Sect's trust."
Li Dai quickly assured: "Tai Xuan Sect is the authentic sect in the world. If I become the emperor, Tai Xuan Sect can monitor my actions!"
"Tell your people to stop investigating Gu An. No matter how your royal family fights, Gu An must not be involved."
Lu Baitian said casually, and Li Dai's face changed drastically when he said this.
At this moment, Li Dai thought of many possibilities.
He asked cautiously, "Which family does Gu An come from?"
Gu An’s cultivation was too low, so he subconsciously thought that he was from a noble family and came to Taixuan Sect to live out his life because of his mediocre qualifications.
"He doesn't have a noble family background. He only has one person as his background, and that person is me. Is that enough?"
As Lu Baitian spoke, he looked at Li Dai, shocking Li Dai so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.
