After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 3 - Not Understanding Reason, I Also Have Some Knowledge of Kung Fu

The person before him was no ordinary individual, Gu An realized, and he knew that he had made an enemy of the other party.

Naturally, forgiveness was impossible.

Would any normal person forgive someone weaker than themselves for severing their tendons?

Thus, revenge was only a matter of time.

Instinctively, Gu An hoped this woman would end up dead.

But it wasn't up to him to decide whether she died or not.

It depended on what those above him said.

In any case, his mission was to bring the other party back and then wait for those above to find her.

During this period, he could also extract some benefits from the other party.

Of course, he only meant verbal benefits, and any physical contact should be avoided if possible.

Besides, he was currently in the body of a man in his forties, what if he was all bark and no bite?

Wouldn't it be a disgrace to live then?

"Is this it?" Chu Meng was somewhat incredulous, "That bitch didn't give it to you? Or do you not like it?"

"Does it matter?" Gu An asked.

Whether he liked it or not had nothing to do with the person in front of him.

"It doesn't, but I have the Cultivation Technique. Aren't you afraid the Sect will find out?" Chu Meng asked.

Gu An shook his head: "I am."

He couldn't practice the Sect's Cultivation Technique as being discovered would lead to death.

"Then there is only an ordinary Cultivation Technique, which doesn't reach Foundation Establishment," said Chu Meng.

Hearing this, Gu An was quite pleased as not reaching Foundation Establishment meant he could cultivate to a high Qi Refinement level.

That was enough.

Being able to break free from the Third Level of Qi Refining would be good enough.

"Where is it?" asked Gu An.

"If I give it to you, will you send me back to the Sect?" Chu Meng asked.

Gu An shook his head: "The senior can make another request."

"Release me?" Chu Meng tried asking.

Gu An nodded and then untied the sack for her, placing it at the door: "Senior, I let you go."

Chu Meng looked at Gu An as if he were an idiot: "How am I supposed to leave?"

"But I have released you," said Gu An.

Chu Meng burst out angrily: "A underling's hidden thread, indeed nothing good."

"Senior, now you are being unreasonable," said Gu An expressionlessly.

"So what?" Chu Meng retorted furiously.

"I am someone who speaks reasonably. If the senior doesn't understand, I also have some knowledge of martial arts," Gu An said seriously, clenching his fists and looking at the other party.

"...."

Finally, Chu Meng glanced at her waist.

Gu An followed her gaze, reached over, unfastened the very delicately made bag which was about the size of a goose egg and considered petite.

After pondering for a moment, Gu An realized he couldn't open it, then looked at the person in front of him: "A Storage Treasure?"

"Indeed, I can give it to you as a gift if you want it," Chu Meng said with a smile.

"Do you have an ordinary one?" Gu An asked.

"No," Chu Meng shook her head.

Thus, Gu An sighed.

The bag had a character 'Dream' on it, obviously custom-made for someone.

He was just a Sect Disciple helping out in disputes, and taking such a valuable item would surely lead to death.

Unless he could bury the other party here forever.

Using the small techniques taught by the other party, Gu An eventually extracted a book from inside.

Named Nourishing Life Technique.

It could be practiced up to the Qi Refining Sixth Level.

As to its authenticity... he was not in a rush, he would wait a few days to see if he could view her Ring of Destiny, perhaps then he would know if it was real or fake.

If not, then he would give it a try.

"Now that I have the Cultivation Technique, do you have any Spells?" Gu An asked after hanging the item back on the other party's waist.

"Why should I tell you?" Chu Meng asked.

"The senior's limbs are no longer functional, eventually you'll need to eat, won't you?" said Gu An.

Chu Meng stared at Gu An, her icy eyes causing palpitations.

At last, Gu An learned the spell Hundred Steps Chasing Wind from her.

A spell to increase speed.

He had originally wanted to learn offensive, especially long-range offensive spells.

Presently, his only means of attack was the Mountain Opening Fist, but close quarters combat sometimes posed risks.

As for the Fireball Technique, it sounds quite ordinary.

Expending effort to improve it doesn't seem cost-effective.

The next day.

Gu An still hadn't heard from his contact and could only take out some demon beast meat from the kitchen and head to the Spirit Tree Garden.

"Boss, there's leftovers again?" Yang Shi exclaimed in surprise.

Gu An tossed the meat over: "Cook it for lunch, we'll all eat together."

"Boss, is this demon beast meat from yesterday?" A slightly rough-looking girl asked with joy.

Qiu Hua, Qi Refining Second Level, around twenty-five or twenty-six years old, slightly larger in build with innate great strength.

In terms of pure strength, she was stronger than Gu An and the others combined.

"From a few days ago." Gu An casually picked up an axe nearby and said, "Yesterday's can't be eaten, it's been buried."

Hearing this, the four of them became even more excited.

Gu An didn't care and walked towards Spirit Tree Garden: "I'm going to kill some time, you guys prepare the meat."

Killing time meant chopping trees.

To avoid suspicion from the others, Gu An could only use this excuse.

Chopping trees every now and then.

This way, it's good for improving magic and cultivation.

Many people were eyeing his position, if he kept chopping trees, some might secretly complain to the Manager.

Then it would be troublesome.

So the demon beast meat, and killing time, were all preparations in advance.

You owe someone who gives you a handout, so they wouldn't be too excessive.

Besides, he had also given gifts to the Manager, so there wouldn't be trouble for now.

Who knows about later, better to improve now and think later.

Arriving at the logging area, Gu An swung the axe in his hand.

With a "thud," the Vajra Wood gave a dull sound.

Leaving only some marks.

It could take a whole day to chop down just one.

Fortunately, one doesn't need to fell an entire tree to increase the numbers.

After trying a few swings to get a feel, Gu An began to exert more force.

Thud, thud, thud, rhythmic sounds rang out.

After a dozen or so swings, he felt a warmth in his body, something flowing into him.

Values began to change.

[Magic: 46/50]

So, he continued to swing the axe, one strike after another.

Time passed by bit by bit.

It was a long while before the values changed again.

[Magic: 47/50]

[Magic: 48/50]

Approaching noon, Gu An had only chopped down a small part of the Vajra Wood, his forehead dotted with sweat beads.

He stopped at this point.

Today's luck wasn't bad.

[Magic: 50/50]

The magic value was full.

Returning to the resting spot, Gu An threw down the axe saying:

"How's the meat?"

"Boss, just in time for you to come back, it's ready to eat." Qiu Hua said with a smile.

A table full of prepared meat, roasted and boiled, awaited.

"Boss, you first." After sitting down, Yang Shi spoke.

Gu An picked up the bowl and chopsticks: "Together."

The others then picked up their own.

During the meal, Qiu Hua said: "I heard something happened in the Sect."

"What happened?" Another relatively delicate-looking girl asked.

Zhao Ying, with rather delicate features, one of the Supervisors in the Spirit Tree Garden, Qi Refining Second Level cultivation.

"It's said that some conflict broke out among the Inner Sect disciples, causing some injuries and fatalities, and it's still ongoing, not sure if it would affect the outside." Qiu Hua lamented.

Once it affects the outside, they would be like nothing more than a breeze to those people.

Gu An listened without speaking, continuing to eat the meat and listen.

Regrettably, instead of continuing, they all turned their eyes towards him.

What are you looking at me for?

"Boss, since you hold a high position, do you have more information?" Yang Shi asked.

Gu An: "..."
