After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 493 - 330: The Divine Monarch Hall Has Been Found

Gu An appeared before the Immortal who had achieved Golden Core Perfection.

The towering figure, decisive in killing, made the Immortal shiver on the spot.

"Why isn’t the Immortal speaking anymore? Do you dislike speaking, or is there nothing left to say to me?"

Gu An raised his hand slightly and placed it on the other party’s shoulder.

With just a light touch, the other party’s knees weakened, and she knelt on the ground.

Gu An looked down and sighed, "How can I face these fellow daoists with you behaving this way?"

"The, the senior, I, I....." The Immortal stammered in fear.

Before she could finish, a monk walked out.

His cultivation had reached Primordial Spirit Perfection, and his skin seemed to emit golden light.

At this moment, he put his palms together, addressing Gu An, "Benefactor, ’tis the benevolent who spares others when he can. She already realizes she delayed your collection of Spirit Stones.

Why not spare her life?"

Hearing this, the people below lowered their brows but felt that the person in front of them would stop at nothing for the sake of earning Spirit Stones.

Such behavior, how is it different from the Demon Sect?

Gu An noticed the change in these people.

He was not a very clever person, but his cultivation had reached a certain realm.

His perception was still passable.

But he did not care about it; instead, he looked at the monk in front of him, speaking seriously, "I’ve heard that in Buddhism it’s said saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-level pagoda. Is this true?"

The monk nodded, "Indeed it is so."

"Then do you wish to save this Immortal?" Gu An pointed at the Immortal kneeling before him.

The monk nodded, "As a Buddhist, naturally I wish to accumulate good deeds for you, Benefactor, to reduce your karma."

Gu An nodded earnestly, "You truly are a Buddha incarnate, but I still desire to kill. Originally, I was going to kill her, but you want to save her.

Your act of kindness moves me.

Therefore, I’ve decided to exchange one life for another.

I won’t kill her, but I hope you can take your own life right here.

Saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-level pagoda, surely you won’t hesitate, right?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned and turned to look at the monk.

The monk was also taken aback but quickly responded, "Why must Benefactor be so? This would put this female benefactor into an unrighteous position."

"Just tell me if you agree or not," Gu An said, disregarding everything else and only asking.

The monk put his palms together, "A Buddhist’s life is in Buddha’s hands, the Buddha does not let this monk die, this monk dares not die."

Gu An chuckled, "I think you’re more of a glib monk."

With that, Gu An took a step forward, reaching the monk.

As the golden light shimmered around the monk,

Gu An grabbed his throat and exerted a slight pressure.

Bang!

The golden light shattered explosively.

The monk’s golden body was demolished.

The man returned to normal,

directly lifted by the throat by Gu An.

At this moment, Gu An asked the monk, "Tell me now, monk, did Buddha tell you to die? Say you will spare me and I will let you live."

The monk was dumbfounded, never expecting to be so powerless to resist.

He stared at Gu An and struggled to say, "Benefactor, in Buddhism, there is Karma connected to actions, killing a Buddhist disciple will entangle you in this web of Karma."

Gu An looked at him with cold eyes, subconsciously covering himself with the Blood Spirit before he spoke, "Now tell me, did your Buddha tell you to die?"

"My Buddha is compassionate and surely will not abandon his disciple. If you insist on going your own way..."

Before the monk could finish, Gu An shook his head, "It seems your understanding of Buddhist teachings isn’t deep enough."

With that, he squeezed hard.

With a popping sound,

blood spurted out.

Finally, a corpse fell to the ground.

For a moment, everyone gasped in shock.

No one dared to speak any further.

Only the Immortal spoke up with some joy, "Now that the monk is dead, does that mean you can’t kill me? If you kill me, you will be untrustworthy, which could affect your Daoist heart and obstruct your cultivation progress."

Gu An glanced at her.

Then, with a "bang,"

the nameless Immortal was sent flying by a strike, eventually crashing into the hillside.

She and the hillside crumbled together.

Gu An didn’t understand, by saying he’d be affected by a Heart Demon, wasn’t she forcing him to kill?

She couldn’t even say a kind word.

"Alas, I’m not entirely heartless. If she begged, maybe I would have been lenient."

In an instant, everyone broke out in cold sweat.

Didn’t she beg?

She should have begged, right?

Only then did they realize that the person standing here was not from the Immortal Sect at all.

He was undoubtedly a ruthless villain of the Demon Sect.

Zuo Youyan, they all would remember this name.

Once the news spread,

he would not be able to escape.

Gu An looked at the crowd and said, "Those who have reached above Golden Core Perfection can enter for one thousand Spirit Stones each, does anyone object?"

The crowd was silent.

Some obediently handed over their Spirit Stones.

In an instant, Gu An collected five thousand Spirit Stones.

Sharing with Chu Meng, each got two thousand five hundred.

This trip had earned them several thousand each.

Plus, there was the monk’s Storage Treasure.

The two split twelve thousand each.

Quite wealthy.

There were also some Elixir Pills and Talismans, and after accounting for these, Gu An gave Chu Meng another five thousand Spirit Stones.

Upon receiving the Spirit Stones, Chu Meng reflected:

"Giving me so many Spirit Stones, how will you afford a wife in the future?

As your superior, I am worried about your future." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Gu An: "..."

He did not address this question, but posed another one.

The feeling that was elusive.

"An elusive feeling?" Chu Meng looked puzzled, "I don’t have such a feeling."

She paused, then continued, "Do you mean you might be targeted by that tower?"

Gu An neither confirmed nor denied, "Do you think it’s likely, senior?"

"It’s possible, since you were in that place for quite a while and had some contact," Chu Meng said with a frown:

"Of course, there might be something attractive on you."
