After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 275 - 227: Senior, You Don’t Need to Use the Charming Technique Next Time_2
Chapter 275: Chapter 227: Senior, You Don’t Need to Use the Charming Technique Next Time_2
Afterward, he glanced at his status.
The Charming Technique is at work again.
Do you always chat with people like this?
Keeping the Charming Technique activated.
While speaking, Chu Meng handed over a bead and said, "Crush it and I’ll know, then I’ll go to Spirit Controlling Peak to demand people.
As your superior, with a high status and position."
Gu An gazed at the bead, and in the end, he tucked it away: "Senior, next time you can deactivate the Charming Technique."
Smack!
Chu Meng slapped the table forcefully and seriously said:
"You’ve disappointed me greatly."
Saying this, she placed the half-eaten pastry down, casually picked up some peanuts, and said:
"Girls have thin skin, mentioning the Charming Technique in public, do you know what it implies?
Petty retribution, big-time pettiness.
When I get the message, I’ll delay at least thirty minutes before heading over."
Saying so, she strode towards the outside:
"I initially planned to assign you a task, now forget it."
Saying so, the other party hurried away.
Gu An was silent for a long while.
He looked at the pastry Chu Meng had bitten into.
There were only six pastries in total, Chu Meng had eaten two, each with just a bite before setting them down.
Are they that unpalatable?
He went ahead and ate the other four, feeling they were quite alright.
So, were the ones Chu Meng ate really that bad?
Should I take a bite to try?
Gu An paused, then shook his head.
Could the Charming Technique also affect curiosity?
Afterward, Gu An ate the remaining food.
Continuing, he started to sell his talismans again.
He wasn’t sure if the emergence of Heavenly Suspension Peak’s reputation would deter Si Wuye.
As for the ranking of the Merit Hall.
It’s probably hard to spread quickly.
Now, the Merit Hall also hoped he would get into conflicts with others, thereby establishing authority.
And Heavenly Suspension Peak’s reputation was actually linked to the growth of bamboo.
Now, if word got out, countless people would doubt it, it’d only normalize after three months.
Gu An sighed, and no longer dwelled on it.
For now, he could only try to improve his Magic values as quickly as possible.
See if the Magic could be enhanced once more.
This time with Magic, instead of improving other abilities, focus on improving Sealing.
Age Cycle Twelve Stars.
Try to enhance it once again.
It’s not to seal a second object.
But to make the first seal more usable, more durable.
He planned to put most of the shameful things into one Storage Treasure, then seal it within the She Ti Ge.
The second seal of Void Star also needed to be kept just in case.
At night, Gu An returned to the Outer Peak.
He found Ruan Huan waiting at his doorstep.
"Leader, you’re back," Ruan Huan said a little worriedly:
"The Main Court assigned a task, saying it needs to be completed within three days, but the specific details have not been delivered yet.
We’re also unsure whether Junior Brother needs to go."
"Give me the specifics of the task," Gu An knew some people were about to take action.
"They say the details of the task have changed and the Leader must fetch them himself," Ruan Huan said with some worry: "This might be deliberately making things difficult for the Leader."
Gu An reassured: "Don’t mind it, you go back and rest. Do what you need to do, and don’t bother about what you shouldn’t, let me handle it."
Ruan Huan didn’t understand why Gu An was so calm but still nodded.
Team Two had witnessed many events since Gu An took over, always being targeted.
Ruan Huan felt that these days, the Main Court people seemed to be subtly probing.
Initially, when the Leader became the Peak Master’s disciple, they had an easier time.
But with certain unfavorable rumors spreading, saying Heavenly Suspension Peak made a mistake or Heavenly Suspension Peak no longer dealt with these matters.
Their lives became difficult again.
Today, they’ve finally started to get tough.
He just hoped the Leader could pull through.
Gu An could only continue logging.
It’s a pity, even if just a few points short, one or two days are not nearly enough.
After the cultivation improvement, these trees were too young and lacking Spiritual Energy.
However, logging must go on, little by little it adds up. freewebnσvel.cøm
After some time, it will be completed.
But during the logging, he felt the Ring of Destiny tremble.
It’s here.
[Yesterday noon, Elder Huang received a pointer, contacted people from Spirit Controlling Peak, and learned that someone is about to target you, and there’s a high chance they will attempt to kill you.
At the same time, I hope Elder Huang can help, no need to do anything else, just issue the task will do.
The rest is left to the people on Spirit Controlling Peak.
Therefore, that very day the task was handed down to you, mandating you to personally accept it, and then depart.
Tomorrow, when you leave the Sect, he will follow and see how you get killed.]
Gu An continued woodcutting, with little shock in his heart.
Elder Huang’s long silence, after all, had begun to show a conscience.
Such a kind person, his heart couldn’t possibly be black.
Tomorrow will reveal all.
After daybreak, Gu An’s score showed no changes.
It took over ten days for a value to appear, advancing in rank seemed to be in the distant future.
He needed new wood.
Perhaps after three months, with increased prestige, he might be able to cut better trees.
Some trees, other disciples are unwilling to cut, yet I am struggling to find good wood even when I want to log.
After that, Gu An returned to the backyard.
Duanmu Qingping was waiting here for him.
Ruan Huan was there too.
"Sister, there is something peculiar about this task, it shouldn’t have fallen into your hands so quickly," Duanmu Qingping reminded.
Gu An looked at the person in front of him, gratefully saying: "Thank you sister for the reminder, I understand."
Duanmu Qingping did not say anything more.
Her cultivation wasn’t very high, she could only offer a word of caution.
Gu An turned to Ruan Huan: "Let’s go, accept the task, and then tell me about the general situation with Pang Wen and the others."
After Gu An left, Song Feng came out.
Duanmu Qingping asked: "Leader, what on earth is going on?"
"Somebody is going to make a move," Song Feng said.
"How can that be? He is a Peak Master’s disciple."
"It’s not impossible, it’s not like he is the only Peak Master’s disciple."
"Could it be..."
"Don’t speculate wildly, and don’t talk recklessly. We can only do our part, whether Leader Gu can come back depends on his luck."
For a moment, Duanmu Qingping fell silent.
She wasn’t very close to Gu An, but he was, after all, a person of influence.
Now, such a person of influence seemed unlikely to return.
An inexplicable sadness came over her; perhaps one day she too would disappear without a trace.
On the path of cultivation, everyone is the same.
Walking along, one might just fall.
At this time, Gu An had arrived at the Task Hall.
The questioner was the same task brother as before.
"Leader Gu, how come you are here in person?" the task brother immediately stood up and asked.
"Didn’t they say I had to come in person?" Gu An asked.
The task brother looked puzzled: "What task requires brother to come in person? If it requires brother’s personal acceptance, then it should be delivered by me."
Gu An looked at Ruan Huan, and the latter hastily explained:
"The notice I received was that brother had to come in person."
While Gu An was puzzled, suddenly a voice came from outside: "It was I who had you come in person."
Gu An turned his head to look behind.
The person who came was a serious middle-aged man.
With an inherent authority.
Gu An looked at him, not unfamiliar.
The person who presided over justice for the second team’s people before, was also Elder Huang.
He told him that if he was bullied by the second team’s people, he should find the correct channel.
"I’ve seen Elder Huang," Gu An said respectfully.
He sensed the other’s cultivation, and judging purely from appearance, it was the Early Stage of the Primordial Spirit.
But judging by the control of Spiritual Energy from the Qi Breathing Chapter.
It should be Mid-stage Nascent Soul.
A Magic Treasure was concealing his cultivation.
"Not at all, not at all, when Leader Gu accepts tasks they need to be personally delivered by the Main Court, clearly not someone who should receive a bow," Elder Huang said with a smile that did not quite reach his eyes.
"It’s all a misunderstanding," Gu An said respectfully.
"Misunderstanding?" Elder Huang chuckled: "Why is it that I don’t misunderstand others, but come to misunderstand Leader Gu?
Has Leader Gu reflected well on where he went wrong?"
Gu An bowed his head and merely asked softly: "I don’t know what the second team’s task is?"
Elder Huang pulled out an envelope and handed it over.
Gu An reached out to take it.
Without any surprise.
Only when he took it, Elder Huang said with a smile:
"Leader Gu, be careful on your journey, this task is not an easy one."
"Thank you for your warning, Elder Huang," Gu An responded quietly.
After Gu An had walked a few steps, Elder Huang suddenly spoke again: "By the way, does Leader Gu have family? If Leader Gu has an accident, I would like to send some condolence gift."
Gu An turned back and shook his head at Elder Huang: "Thank you, Elder Huang."
After that Gu An walked outside.
Elder Huang truly is a good person, he indeed had a change of heart.
