After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 177: I Still Prefer Senior Brother’s Arrogant Side
Chapter 177: Chapter 177: I Still Prefer Senior Brother’s Arrogant Side
In the mountain woods, Gu An walked with his qi retracted around him.
At this moment, he was examining the Storage Treasure in his hand.
He couldn’t help feeling that the people from the Outer Peak were indeed wealthy.
Originally, he had saved up 2,800 Spirit Stones.
He thought it would take a long time to save up 5,000.
Unexpectedly,
now he had 4,800.
This Storage Treasure contained 2,000 Spirit Stones.
Surprising.
After reaching the Golden Core stage, everyone really did become much richer.
However, besides Spirit Stones, Senior Sister Tao didn’t leave much behind, no Magic or Cultivation Techniques, just some Elixir Pills.
"There are still many good people."
"I wonder if in two or three years, Elder Miao would also have a change of conscience."
Without much thought, Gu An quickly left.
He needed to go back to logging.
That afternoon, Gu An continued logging.
Hoping to advance his cultivation as soon as possible.
Additionally, he felt that in the future, he should try to avoid learning incomplete but powerful Magic.
Even if he had to learn it, he should avoid using up his lifespan.
Although it didn’t feel like it caused harm, he always felt like he was getting more white hairs.
This time was indeed an accident. Who would have known that learning the Prison Cage would be so difficult.
Being incomplete was one thing, but profoundness was another.
After all, he had enhanced many Magic Techniques before and had many advantages in comprehending Magic.
The next day.
Gu An looked at the six additional points and let out a sigh of relief.
In half a month, he could improve his Magic once more, and a month of Hard Cultivation would also be complete.
If the poisoning was too severe and he needed to rest halfway, at the most, it would take a month and a half to improve once.
That was sufficient.
But just as he had rested for a short while today, Duanmu Qingping found him.
"Junior Brother, the elder from the Main Court has requested your presence."
Hearing this, Gu An felt somewhat surprised and asked, "Why?"
"Because Junior Brother Hu Li was beaten by you," said Duanmu Qingping angrily. "This matter should have been over, but they failed negotiations with other Sects, and the Main Court demanded a sufficient reason from them. They said it was because you injured Hu Li, causing them to be short of a key member, which led to the failure of the negotiations.
Ultimately, the fault lies with Junior Brother."
Gu An fell silent for a moment, then replied, "Okay, I’ll go."
He didn’t know what the outcome would be.
But not going probably wasn’t an option.
The elder from the Main Court, even in the Outer Peak, must possess considerable strength.
He had no power to resist.
He could only hope that later, the other party would have a change of heart and not make things difficult for him.
Outer Peak’s Main Court.
Gu An arrived in front of a large hall.
At the moment, a middle-aged man sat on the high seat.
The members of the second team were standing at the side.
A relatively young man and Hu Li and others.
Four people in total.
The team leader wasn’t present.
On Gu An’s side, it was just him and Duanmu Qingping.
"Greetings, elder." Gu An bowed in salutation.
"Second team members say you injured Hu Li, causing their mission to fail. Is this true?" Elder Huang looked at Gu An and asked.
"It’s because Hu Li deliberately did not return my Spirit Stones," Gu An answered.
"He helped us with logging, I owed him one month’s worth of Spirit Stones, and he beat me, breaking my limbs," Hu Li spoke up.
"Is that so?" Elder Huang looked at Gu An.
Gu An nodded: "It is."
"Hmm, alright then," Elder Huang nodded, then continued:
"So, Gu An has sabotaged a mission, causing the mission to fail, and is thus guilty."
Upon hearing this, Gu An was somewhat surprised, then Elder Huang continued speaking:
"It’s wrong for Hu Li not to give you Spirit Stones, but you could have approached various departments within the Sect to make your claim and resolve the issue, to get your Spirit Stones back.
You can’t take matters into your hands, going against the Sect’s rules, which can lead to adverse influence.
This mission is a part of that influence."
The moment the voice fell, Hu Li and the others were excited beyond measure.
Gu An’s brows were tightly furrowed.
Duanmu Qingping spoke, "Elder, but Hu Li was not among the people assigned for this task."
"It was originally Hu Li, but since he’s injured, naturally, he’s out," the young man leading the second team spoke, Bing Zheng said.
Gu An fell silent, having guessed as much, but didn’t expect such an outcome.
He took a deep look at this elder; he was just an Outer Peak Elder, not very high in the Sect’s hierarchy.
But still, he could easily crush him.
His cultivation level was inscrutable.
This was the situation he faced after offending many in the Sect.
Most of the time, he simply couldn’t resist.
In the end, the Main Court made the final judgment, requiring three hundred Spirit Stones to compensate the Outer Peak.
And the second team, needed to visit other Sects to negotiate matters.
It had to be completed.
Gu An handed over the Spirit Stones, and naturally, the second team also accepted the task.
Upon leaving the Main Court, Hu Li and others looked at Gu An and sneered: "Old mummy, nothing to say now? Still want Spirit Stones? Aren’t you very formidable?
Why didn’t you make a move just now?"
Bing Zheng laughed and said, "If he made a move, wouldn’t he want to die? I heard he loves to start fights in the Inner Sect, I was just waiting for him to do something.
Could have suppressed him right there.
Maybe even cripple him.
It’s a pity the old guy didn’t make a move, like a turtle, quite enduring.
Contrary to the rumors, the rumors say he’s always eager to fight for dominance.
Seems like rumors can’t be trusted."
After saying that, the few from the second team burst out laughing.
Gu An looked at them, steadied his emotions, and finally let out a sigh.
Forget it, just endure.
The situation is stronger than the person.
In the afternoon.
Bing Zheng and Hu Li left the Sect and flew on their swords towards Qingmu City.
They had already made an appointment with people from other Sects, and this time, they would surely reach an agreement.
Just a small price to pay.
Not a problem at all.
"Senior Brother is really formidable, just now that old man Gu was at a loss for words, and even obediently took out his Spirit Stones.
How frustrated he must have been at that moment.
In the end, like a stray dog." Hu Li laughed heartily.
"Golden Core Early Stage, not worth mentioning, give him ten guts and he wouldn’t dare to make a move, but we’d better not let him advance.
Of course, he won’t have the chance.
After this, we will suppress him, bully him, then ruin him." Bing Zheng sneered:
"He has no idea how many people he has offended, now in the Sect, as long as it’s against him, it’s easy to handle.
It’s definitely his fault.
How long can he survive in the Sect?
A few more times like this and he’ll be dead, but first we’ll make his life worse than death."
Saying that, the two laughed out loud.
Suddenly, Bing Zheng stiffened, immediately looking behind.
Puchi!
A hand pierced through from behind him.
"Senior Brother looks very surprised." A cold voice sounded.
Blood spewed from Bing Zheng’s mouth, his eyes full of horror looking at the person in front of him.
He couldn’t believe the person could pierce through his body.
But the breath of death made him fearful.
"Junior Brother, please, let me go."
His face showed fear.
The other person’s cultivation level was wrong.
"I still prefer it when Senior Brother is arrogant," Gu An’s hand reached out to grasp his head.
"No, don’t, I..."
Bang!
Gu An exerted a little force, and Bing Zheng’s head was directly crushed.
Blood spurted out.
Hu Li, on the other side, was splashed by blood, his cheeks drenched in red.
Such a visual shock left him completely blank.
