After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 526 - 346: Will Someone Come for the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch at the Next Gathering? (2)
"Once it’s known, the trouble will be greater than you think," Chu Meng said sternly.
Gu An nodded.
He expressed his understanding.
The Blood Demon Divine Monarch has been seen, and so have the big figures of the Heavenly Maiden Lineage.
The Eye of Heavenly Punishment appeared, seemingly targeting the big figures first, but actually aiming at oneself.
Because being burned and surviving leaves a noticeable mark.
While thinking, Gu An continued eating.
After some time, he curiously asked, "Senior, do you have any other tasks?"
"No," Chu Meng replied casually while eating Huasheng.
"Senior needs to progress," Gu An earnestly said, "If I have no tasks, you can’t be seen by the higher-ups, and if you’re not seen, it’s hard for you to progress.
If you don’t progress, how can I?"
Chu Meng raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu An: "...."
Then she lowered her head and continued eating. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Gu An sighed.
In the past, he didn’t want to complete tasks, but now having no tasks leaves him melancholic.
If only the previous cafeteria tasks could be reassigned, it would be great.
Now, completing them would be very convenient.
Chu Meng ate for a while and then took a sip of tea, saying, "You should concern yourself with your own affairs. This time the Sect rejected the Buddhist faction, allowing others to see your value.
Soon, people will try to recruit you. Some have gained status and power through aggression.
If you refuse, they’ll handle things aggressively with you.
Of course, they dare not harm you, but they’ll certainly create obstacles.
You’ll have to resolve these yourself, but if you can’t..."
"Will the higher-ups abandon me?" Gu An asked.
Chu Meng looked at Gu An and sighed, "If you can’t resolve it, naturally me, your superior, will intervene.
Additionally, it’s about your identity in the marriage alliance.
Your odds are quite high."
Gu An was taken aback and said, "Odds?"
Chu Meng nodded with a smile, saying:
"You’ve ranked first for several consecutive months and will surely be among the few Peak Masters’ choices.
Afterward, it might be confirmed.
It’s rumored the list will be released by year-end; you can look forward to it.
You may just live off someone else."
Gu An shook his head, "Senior, you’re thinking too much."
Chu Meng casually rose and said, "Alright, I’m leaving now, wait for my little shoes next time."
Then Chu Meng left.
Glancing down, Gu An did not doubt Chu Meng’s ability to help.
Those two maids were proof of everything.
However, someone might still approach him, he wondered who it might be.
Could it be the group Senior Sister Qing mentioned?
After all, they might know about Chen Changfeng’s existence and may choose to recruit instead of forcibly taking.
The more aggressive a person is, the more they believe power represents everything.
If impulsive, there’s nothing they wouldn’t do.
In the following days, Gu An didn’t encounter anything.
Besides logging, it was just logging.
Until mid-month, some brought back rumors from outside, that Zuo Youyan offended the Buddhist faction, allowing them to learn of the Demon Sect Cangmu Sect’s notorious deeds, and might begin descending demon.
Suddenly, the Sect was somewhat worried.
On this day.
Shangguan He found Gu An, saying he was disguised really well.
Now he needed to inform more.
That is, the appearance of things, and what happens if seen.
The other party spoke plainly, in a transparent box was a mist, beneath which an eye appeared.
Once seen, it could likely ignite.
Once ignited, absolute annihilation awaits, no chance of survival.
Thus, his current disguise was of one who’s seen but not burned.
Additionally, Shangguan He cautioned him that if he truly saw such things, don’t be curious, stay as far away as possible.
Moreover, if the Heavenly Maiden Lineage confirms traces, they’ll take action, caution is needed.
After saying this, the other party also told him, as long as he remained in the Sect, generally nothing would happen.
Facing the Heavenly Maiden Lineage, Gu An didn’t understand why the other party was so confident.
However, he won’t rashly leave; that talisman is indeed useful.
If anyone ambushes him in the future, he can directly use it.
For instance, Immortal Xue Ying.
At that time, regardless of the adversary’s cultivation, just use the talisman.
Thus it also solves one worry.
That night, while Gu An was logging, the runaway Noodles returned home.
Gu An saw it open its mouth and his eye twitched slightly.
Thankfully, it spat out two Spirit Stones that it had picked up.
In addition, there was another stone.
It was a message from the Blood Demon Divine Monarch.
"Big brother, Eight Sounds Divine Monarch sent a message, saying that the Divine Monarch Hall might see the addition of a new Divine Monarch, and it is said that this Divine Monarch might be targeting the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch. Perhaps you can see if the new Hall Master can control the situation."
Looking at the Blood Demon Divine Monarch’s message, Gu An fell silent.
Targeting the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch?
Isn’t that coming for me?
How should I prepare to avoid the new Divine Monarch’s targeting?
Gu An even considered whether to tell the Blood Demon Divine Monarch to cover for him.
In the end, he gave up.
If worst comes to worst, just play deaf and dumb.
Sighing, Gu An continued logging.
It’s better to improve first.
Five days later.
Late September.
Gu An received feedback from the Ring of Destiny.
[Yesterday evening, Immortal Xue Ying received the latest news. A high monk from the Buddhist Sect had already severely injured the person and forced them to Luoyang Mountain in front of the Cangmu Sect.
And she proactively made a deal with the person, which was to provide them with a Healing Holy Medicine.
However, she required the person to release the most terrifying Demon Beast to attack the Outer Peak of the Cangmu Sect, with the main target being your residence.
She naturally learned of the Buddhist Sect’s attack outcome against you, so to prevent any mishaps, she prepared to take drastic measures, allowing the powerful Demon Beast to first inflict severe damage, breaking the protective enchantments on you.
Besides, the Demon Beast’s strength is such that unless the Peak Master steps in, no one can do anything about it.
The Law Enforcement Hall’s protection over you is virtually useless.
Once the chaos begins and you’re severely injured, she plans to take you away, making you her possession.
The person agreed, and releasing the seal will only take one night, and they could act tomorrow.
Immortal Xue Ying advised them to attack the next morning, knowing that you usually log late into the night and would return to rest early in the morning.
That’s when your guard is at its lowest.
Establish severe damage in one stroke, breaking through layers of protection.
She’s uncertain if you’ve hidden your cultivation, but this time, whether you’re at Golden Core or Primordial Spirit, she wants you at the brink of death.
She has the medicine, as long as you submit, you can be saved.
If unwilling, then it saves on Elixir Pills.
And if you’re killed by the Demon Beast, it has nothing to do with her, she could even say she saved you.
The Cangmu Sect won’t bother her, even if the rescue was ineffective, she has the Merit to offset it.]
Reviewing the divine feedback, Gu An stopped swinging his ax and stood silently for a moment.
Finally, he sighed and walked towards the outside of the Sect.
In truth, avoiding this disaster isn’t very difficult.
Returning to the Heavenly Suspension Peak would suffice.
But whether the opponent’s plan would change within one night, he’s uncertain.
Changing plans was something he’s encountered more than once.
One could say that now, before the opponent modifies the plan, is the best moment for him to grasp the initiative.
As for tomorrow, whether the initiative remains with him is also unknown.
The most dangerous now is that Demon Beast.
Let’s go have a look.
If he can deal with it before its sealing is undone, that would be best.
Luoyang Mountain isn’t far from the Sect.
In just under a half-hour, Gu An was standing before Luoyang Mountain.
As he stepped into the mountain, Blood Spirits quickly gathered around him, then disappeared into the forest.
Began searching.
In a moment, Gu An gazed towards the mountain’s waist.
Laughter erupted from over there from the Blood Spirits: "To deal with a mere Golden Core? Hahaha, to think you’d release me just to deal with a Golden Core, humans are truly worthless now.
Haha, you want to leave him alive, I’ll make him my food.
Hahaha!"
Hearing this, Gu An furrowed his brow.
Then a flash of golden light appeared.
He appeared in front of a mountain cave at mid-mountain.
He waited at the cave entrance for a long while, discovering that aside from the Demon Beast freeing itself from the seal, there was no one else.
"Looks like the one who undid the seal also worried something might happen and left early."
Gu An sighed with some sentiment.
That could be better.
The Sun and Moon in the same sky began to activate.
Yet instantly, divine skills encountered resistance, followed by a bang, and the divine skills disintegrated.
A voice of ridicule came from inside: "Divine skills? Such immature divine skills used on me? Ridiculous!"
