#356 - Fortunately, Zuo is not a bad person.
September was a somewhat eventful month for Gu An.
First, he was a bit conspicuous in the Divine Monarch Hall.
This made him feel anxious.
Especially now that he had taken on the role, he couldn't let it go.
He could only continue to act as a seemingly extraordinary Nine Heavens Divine Monarch.
This name was indeed not simple.
He hoped that none of the Divine Monarchs who had appeared so far had any grudges against him.
Otherwise, it would be quite troublesome.
Currently, he had three identities.
One was his normal identity.
Although things were a bit difficult in the sect, he had managed to gain some foothold.
Once the marriage candidates were chosen, if he didn't encounter any major troubles, he should be able to completely establish himself.
Although there would still be some problems, he would be able to handle them to some extent.
He knew some people in the Merit Hall and the Law Enforcement Hall.
He himself also had a certain degree of influence.
The only thing he lacked was strength, but the people within the First Institute could barely make up for it.
Zuo Youyan wasn't too worried about anything else, except for provoking the people of the Reincarnation Clan and the Buddhist Sect.
However, if he had high strength, it wouldn't be a problem.
The only troublesome thing was the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch of the Divine Monarch Hall.
He knew too little about the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch, and other than maintaining appearances, he couldn't do anything else.
If someone were to look for something related to the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch, he was afraid they would ask him.
What should he do then?
If he knew nothing about everything, he was afraid that the truth would be revealed instantly.
To ensure that he wouldn't be exposed, he had to learn more about the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Chapter and the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning Art.
Although he wasn't sure if the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning Art was related to the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch.
But it was related to the Little Pagoda, so learning more would definitely not be a mistake.
However, the matter of the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch would have to wait until next month. Now, the Buddhist Sect wanted to examine him but was rejected.
This made Gu An extremely troubled.
As long as he was examined, he would be able to clear his name.
Who would have thought that the sect would refuse?
This gave him a kind of inexplicable feeling.
That noon.
Dugu Jing came over and smiled, handing him a talisman, explaining: "I know that Junior Brother has doubts in his heart,
but how can the sect sit idly by?
The sect will not let Junior Brother be humiliated by the Buddhist Sect."
Gu An took the talisman, hesitated for a moment, and still opened his mouth and said: "What would happen if I accepted the examination?
Dugu Jing shook his head and said: "The Merit Hall cannot agree. If they agree, wouldn't Junior Brother, the former top of the Merit List,
be at the mercy of others?
Then how much authority would this list have?
Although Junior Brother is innocent, what if it really is Junior Brother?
Wouldn't that mean that the sect is unwilling to protect even the former top of the Merit List, the current third place?
Gu An was silent.
So he still had to thank the sect for its protection?
Finally, Dugu Jing smiled and explained the function of the talisman.
As long as the talisman was used within the scope of the Cangmu Sect and Qingmu City.
It would resist the attacks of strong enemies.
Of course, it would only be effective within the scope, and the effect would be minimal if it left.
In short, once something was found to be wrong, it should be activated immediately.
The Law Enforcement Hall would rush over immediately.
This was specially for dealing with the people of the Buddhist Sect. Who knew if they would take risks.
After that, Dugu Jing left.
Gu An felt that this was not normal.
He felt that he was in danger at any time now.
Sighing, Gu An could only put away the talisman and wait for the conflict to begin.
Since the Cangmu Sect had rejected the Buddhist Sect, then with the attitude of the Buddhist Sect, they were afraid that they would soon take action against the Cangmu Sect.
After all, the Cangmu Sect was a Demonic Sect, and it was reasonable for the Demonic Sect to take action.
In addition, Xue Ying Fairy's plan was also proceeding smoothly.
The so-called demon beasts and evil demons should appear in no time.
Now was the time to improve his cultivation as much as possible.
He also had to continue to cultivate the Sun and Moon Heart Furnace.
Because of the Xuanhuang Qi, cultivation was exceptionally smooth, and he was about to reach the second level.
In this way, he could increase his strength by 10%.
In the evening.
Gu An took his axe and went to the forest to chop wood.
Recently, he needed to pay attention to the Ring of Destiny.
Outside the Cangmu Sect.
At night, a group of monks stayed in a dilapidated temple.
They looked at the dilapidated Buddha statue and chanted a Buddhist prayer.
At this time, a rather young monk said: "The Cangmu Sect is indeed a Demonic Sect, simply arrogant and conceited.
The disciple has left a mark inside, which can be entered smoothly.
Do you want to go directly and find that Gu An?
See if it has anything to do with him."
The old monk in front of the Buddha statue said calmly:
"It's good to go and take a look, but try not to conflict with the people inside.
In remote places, the minds of the Demonic Sect have become incomplete.
Only barbarism and bloodlust remain.
Now they can do anything.
The more shallow people are, the more they cannot understand the compassion of my Buddha.
However, my Buddha is ultimately compassionate and cannot bear to see them sink into depravity.
In a few days, they will naturally know.
The Dharma is boundless."
The young monk nodded slightly, said a Buddhist prayer, and turned and disappeared into the night.
The person who had originally stayed behind suddenly walked out another monk and set off together.
In the forest, Gu An was originally chopping wood.
Near midnight, he suddenly noticed something.
After hesitating for a moment, he pretended to sit under a tree, resting against the tree.
Soon.
Two monks appeared in front of Gu An.
"Is this the person?" The young monk looked at the sleeping Gu An and shook his head: "Late stage of Golden Core, it shouldn't be."
The older monk said: "Check it out, the people of the Demonic Sect are cunning and treacherous, maybe they are hiding something."
The young monk nodded, and then came to Gu An's side. He had enough confidence that the person in front of him could not detect him.
Even if the two of them stood in front of the other party and chatted, nothing unexpected would happen.
He was just a Golden Core of the Demonic Sect. The Demonic Sect's cultivation techniques were crude, and the spells were ordinary.
They took a dangerous path.
They were simply not comparable to orthodox sects.
At this time, the monk took out a string of Buddhist beads.
The Buddha's light lit up slightly, shrouding Gu An.
After a moment, the Buddha's light dimmed.
"It's not him." The older monk shook his head slightly.
"What a pity." The young monk chanted a Buddhist prayer and said: "The Demonic Sect is like hell, not enjoying bliss, presumably the other party is also quite painful.
He is so tired that he has fallen down here, which shows how painful he is here.
Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda.
Today, I will save him.
It is also a merit."
Saying that, he raised his hand, and the Buddha's light condensed.
He was about to kill Gu An with one palm.
However, at the moment when this palm fell, a talisman lit up.
Boom!
The monk was forced back by the talisman.
In an instant, the sky lit up with light, flying at an extremely fast speed.
The older monk quickly left with the young monk: "The demon has arrived, Junior Brother, go."
The young monk glanced at Gu An, who opened his eyes, with regret in his eyes.
It seemed that he regretted that he had been too gentle.
Otherwise, the talisman might not be able to stop him,
Then they quickly disappeared, and Dugu Jing and others arrived at Gu An's place in a few breaths.
Of course, many people chased after them.
As for whether they could catch up...
It was hard to say.
"Junior Brother, are you alright?" Dugu Jing asked.
At this time, Gu An got up with a slight fear: "I'm fine."
He was also quite helpless. He thought that after the other party determined that he was not related to them, they should leave.
Where did he think that they would actually send him to the world of bliss?
In order to test the effect of the talisman, he let the other party do as they pleased.
One of them was a perfect Yuanshen, and the other was a late-stage Returning Void.
He should be able to withstand it.
Then the talisman was activated.
It had to be said that this talisman was indeed good, and people came very quickly.
It was just that they might not be able to catch up with those two monks.
"Thank you, Senior Brother." Gu An respectfully saluted.
“Did my junior brother get a fright? Is junior brother still chopping wood?” Dugujing still felt surprised.
It seemed this junior brother really was chopping wood every day.
Although the sect was about chopping wood, it was the first time seeing a disciple so focused on chopping wood.
Gu An pondered for a moment and said: “I’ll go back to rest now.”
Dugujing escorted Gu An back to his residence, watching the formation activate.
Only then did he disappear into the night.
He should have been chasing after those two monks.
Gu An waited for a moment.
Finally, the Blood Spirit covered his whole body, and the only slightly rusty Sun Chaser appeared in his hand under the moonlight.
Thus, he walked out of the courtyard.
Disappearing into the darkness.
Outside of Cangmu Sect.
Buddhist light shone, two figures rapidly leaving into the distance.
Some people were chasing from afar.
After some time, two inconspicuous monks walked out of the forest.
“May Buddha have mercy, although this place is small, these people’s strength isn’t bad. If we hadn’t used those two Buddhist beads,
we would have been in trouble. It’s a pity that such a genius has become the demonic sect’s lackey.” The older monk lamented: “We need to go back and report the news.”
At this time, the younger monk pondered for a moment and said: “Senior brother, if we go back now to find that Gu An, can we capture him?
The demonic sect has offended my Buddha. Although we investigated the demon Gu An this time,
capturing him would both liberate him and suppress the demon’s arrogance.”
The older monk pondered for a moment and said: “That’s a good idea.”
Going now, as long as we’re careful.
It’s indeed a good opportunity.
After all, people have been led away.
However, before the two could leave, suddenly something shattered in the older monk’s brow.
Then he exclaimed in shock: “There’s a spatial barrier, retreat!”
Saying that, he quickly retreated with the younger monk.
However, before they could retreat a few steps, a long saber descended from the sky.
Boom!
The powerful saber force directly forced the two back, changing their direction to escape.
Just as they turned their heads, suddenly two peanut kernels flew over.
The older monk didn’t dare to hesitate, and the two Buddhist beads were removed and thrown out.
Bang!
The Buddhist beads collided with the peanut kernels.
The Buddhist beads shattered, and the peanut kernels fell to the ground.
At this time, the older monk retreated two steps, warily looking ahead.
There stood a figure.
The younger monk’s voice was low: “Does this benefactor know who he’s blocking?”
Gu An stood in the light of the sun and moon, looking at the two with a smile: “Naturally, it’s the two compassionate monks.”
At this time, the older monk looked at Gu and said: “I wonder if my Buddhist sect has ever offended this benefactor? That you would use great divine power to lock us in?”
Gu An said with a smile: “Aren’t you looking for me? Why can’t you recognize me now that you’ve seen me?”
Hearing this, both monks were shocked.
Zuo Youyan?
However, before the younger monk could speak, suddenly golden light flashed.
Gu An suddenly appeared in front of him.
Raising his right hand and clenching it in the air.
Clang!
Sun Chaser appeared in his hand.
Then, he slashed down with the saber.
“You dare!” Golden light burst out from the younger monk’s body, and the Buddhist beads manifested.
Then, he slashed down with the saber.
Bang!
The Buddhist beads shattered, and the golden light disintegrated.
The saber came straight to the younger monk’s neck.
Pfft!
At the last moment.
The older monk burned his life to drag the person over.
However, the saber still slashed at the younger monk’s neck,
the two-finger-deep wound caused the younger monk’s blood to spurt out.
He looked at Gu An with a face full of horror, exclaiming in terror: “We possess the predestined affinity, you killing me is destined to not escape the Buddhist sect’s pursuit.”
Hearing this, Gu An took a step out, then kicked the older monk.
His every move seemed to carry a ball of invisible fire, each move containing the Qi Sea Heavenly罡.
With a bang.
The older monk was kicked away.
At this time, the younger monk directly fell to the ground, looking at Gu An in horror.
The saber had already come to him.
“Just now, the master said that I was living a hard life and wanted to send me to the Western Paradise. The master is indeed a good person, fortunately Zuo is not a bad person either, so now I will also send the master to the Western Paradise.
So don’t suffer in this human hell.”
The saber rose and fell, in the other party’s shock and horror, bearing this life-ending saber.
When this saber fell, the younger monk stared at Gu An, incomparably shocked, was this person the one from just now?
If he hadn’t made a move, wouldn’t there have been this tribulation?
Confirming that the other party was really dead, Gu An then looked ahead.
The older monk was quickly leaving.
Gu An put away the Sun Chaser in his hand, and a longbow appeared in his hand.
Then he drew the bow.
In an instant, the long arrow condensed from the Qi Sea Heavenly罡 aimed at the fleeing monk.
At this time, the other party’s voice came: “Senior, those who are ordained with compassion are paramount, please senior be merciful, my Buddha will definitely protect senior.”
Gu An didn’t care, then released his hand.
With a swoosh.
The arrow flew out.
In the monk’s horrified gaze, the two collided together.
Boom!
The monk bloomed in the air.
“Your junior brother is lonely, so this way there’s a companion on the road.”
Gu An shook his head.
Then he took out the red beans.
Scattering beans to form soldiers.
The red-armored soldiers began to clean up the battlefield.
After a moment.
Gu An took the two’s storage treasures.
Retreating back into the darkness.
Zuo Youyan needed to go to a more distant place to do more shocking things.
Only in this way could people shift their gaze away from Cangmu Sect.
Returning to his residence, Gu An sighed.
He couldn’t chop wood tonight.
He originally wanted to take a good look at the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Manual, who would have thought it would be so late.
There were actually people coming.
Gu An placed the book in his hand on the table, looking towards the courtyard entrance.
A fairy wearing a pink celestial dress walked in,
eating peanuts, looking around with great interest.
The courtyard’s formation lights also lit up, like daytime.
Seeing Gu An sitting on the courtyard chair, Chu Meng was startled and said: “What are you doing sitting here?”
Gu An was silent for a moment.
You came to my house, asking me what I’m doing sitting here?
Is that appropriate?
“How did senior come?” Gu An remembered the tea leaves he bought, so he took the teapot and made tea.
Chu Meng, who was originally about to sit down, saw this pot of tea that looked good, and subconsciously stood up again.
Gu An: “…”
Chu Meng looked at Gu An, and in a serious manner said: “I think if there’s anything, you can say it first.
I’ll decide whether to sit down and drink tea after I hear it.”
“Nothing.” Gu An said truthfully.
“If there’s nothing, why are you pouring tea for me?” Chu Meng questioned.
Gu An was rather helpless: “Wasn’t this what senior asked for before?”
“You really didn’t take my words as a superior to heart.” Chu Meng sighed: “I clearly said last time to not pour tea for me.”
Saying that, Chu Meng immediately said again: “Have you killed someone again recently? Hoping that I, your superior, will bail you out?”
Gu An: “…”
Do I look like I love killing people so much?
In the dilapidated temple.
The old monk who was originally closing his eyes suddenly opened them, and anger appeared in his eyes.
Fierce-Eyed Vajra.
“Cangmu Sect has fallen too deeply into the demonic path, it seems they need to be saved.”
“Let’s go!”
“Sometimes evil demons and monsters can also contribute to the world’s peace.”
