After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In

Chapter 65 - 65 65 Even the Sect Would Slaughter People

?65: Chapter 65: Even the Sect Would Slaughter People 65: Chapter 65: Even the Sect Would Slaughter People Gu An is a self-aware person.

It’s not that he’s not handsome, but there are many handsome people, and not a few are young.

Heaven dropping a pie; why would this woman take special notice of him?

Yet he cannot discern her motives.

Could it be Zheng Xiu?

Zheng Xiu, the junior sister of Qing Chenxi.

It is said that they were very close.

Now that Qing Chenxi is dead, the other party should suspect him too.

But being too cautious, they might send someone to observe or make him lower his guard before making a move.

Thinking of these, Gu An feels he needs to be even more cautious lately, it’s best to stay within the Sect.

Currently, his cultivation is at the Ninth Level of Qi Refining.

If they kill him, it would let others know and then capture the perpetrator.

Within the Sect, being discovered would naturally alarm the Law Enforcement Hall.

Under the watchful eyes of many, completely disregarding the Law Enforcement Hall.

The problem would be significant.

Unless the other party really has exceptional connections.

However, he can’t just sit and wait for death.

First, he will contact Zheng Xiu to see if he can trigger the Ring of Destiny.

Then decide how to take action.

Presently, his cultivation has reached the peak of Qi Refining, and to advance, he needs a Foundation Establishment Technique.

It’s also time to start working on this aspect.

On the sixth day, Gu An stopped logging.

Early May.

The day to receive resources.

He went there first thing in the morning.

Currently, the cultivation level he shows is the Seventh Layer of Qi Refining.

He specifically took a round; nobody came looking for him.

Even those who had “borrowed” Spirit Stones from him quickly hid upon seeing him.

Afraid of picking up Spirit Stones they shouldn’t.

On the way, Gu An walked slowly, thinking about how to greet Zheng Xiu.

He isn’t sure if the Ring of Destiny can provide feedback without contact.

But he still can’t just sit and wait.

After much thought, he decided to go to the Merit Hall.

The Merit Hall has many Magic Treasures, Elixir Pills.

As long as you have merit, you can exchange for the items inside.

The Sect has one pavilion, two halls, six peaks.

Scripture Pavilion, Law Enforcement Hall, Merit Hall, Six Main Peaks.

Besides these, there are also twelve True Inheritors, each occupying a secondary peak.

There are also many other smaller peaks, but none as prestigious as these.

Merit Hall.

Because it’s the resource distribution day, quite a few people had already come here.

However, the Merit Hall has many doors; one for the Outer Sect, one for the Inner Sect.

And others according to cultivation level.

Outer Disciples can only use the door meant for the Outer Sect.

So coming here, it’s not easy to encounter Inner Sect Disciples.

Entering the first level of the Merit Hall, Gu An found countless shelves filled with an array of items.

Magic Treasures, Elixir Pills, talismans, Cultivation Techniques, everything you could need.

Each item had a price marked.

The simplest Storage Treasure, nineteen merits.

It could be accumulated in four months.

That’s really cheap.

Buying with Spirit Stones would take two to three years.

This is the discount offered by the Sect.

Just by working for the Sect.

But he’s not here to look at these, he’s here trying to meet Zheng Xiu.

Her cultivation should also be nearing Foundation Establishment.

So.

Gu An went straight to the Cultivation Technique area.

If she is considering Foundation Establishment, she will definitely come to check these out.

But Gu An is just trying his luck.

Unfortunately, he didn’t find her, but these Cultivation Techniques are indeed expensive.

Gu An looked at the Foundation Establishment Stage Nourishing Life Technique.

The price is nine hundred and ninety-eight merits.

Isn’t that too expensive?

Such a common cultivation technique, there’s definitely one for sale outside.

But unless there’s no other choice, who would choose this?

Gu An felt that buying it outside would cost at most two to three hundred spirit stones, even if the guess was wrong, it wouldn’t exceed five hundred.

This is much easier to obtain than a thousand merits.

“The sect also overcharges.”

Gu An thought to himself.

After looking around for a while, he suddenly noticed a woman in the corner flipping through books.

Dressed in a pink immortal dress, she looked like the girl next door.

It was her.

Gu An recognized her at first glance, the woman who went to the ancient temple with Qing Chenxi.

This person must be Zheng Xiu.

Gu An dared not hesitate and walked over.

Hearing the footsteps, Zheng Xiu slightly raised her eyebrows.

Upon seeing the visitor, she was quite surprised.

This person is still alive, oh right, I haven’t paid much attention.

The people below are really slow in handling things.

“Greetings, Senior Sister,” Gu An respectfully said.

Hearing this, Zheng Xiu smiled and said, “Don’t be so formal, you’re not young, should call me Junior Sister.”

“Senior Sister is joking, the accomplished one leads,” Gu An respectfully said with his head bowed:

“I came to ask Senior Sister about cultivation.”

As he spoke, Gu An looked around carefully and handed over a simple box, saying, “I just found this, I wonder if it belongs to Senior Sister.”

Zheng Xiu took the box and looked inside, there were three spirit stones.

She gently closed the box with a smile and said, “Indeed, it’s mine.

What would you like to ask, Junior Brother?”

Afterward, Gu An informed her that he was over forty years old, at the Qi Refining Seventh Layer, and could no longer progress.

But he didn’t want to remain stagnant.

What should he cultivate?

“Two techniques, One Qi Sea Sky Gang, this requires time to cultivate, once mastered, no one at the Qi Refining Seventh Layer would be your match, even those at the Eighth Layer would have to be courteous to you,” Zheng Xiu said with a smile.

“The second, Eight Extremes Fist, relies on Qi-Blood, each level stronger than the last, learning it requires consuming quite a few elixir pills, but once mastered, it’s extremely powerful.

But it also has high demands on the body.

There are prerequisites.

Both have similar might, but the former has a lower threshold and longer path.

The latter’s limits are visible, and it can be mastered quickly.”

Gu An, hearing this, bowed his head gratefully.

Then he offered another spirit stone, saying it was to thank her for clearing his doubts.

“Well, then I will unceremoniously accept it,” Zheng Xiu said with a smile.

After that, Gu An thanked her once more and turned to leave.

It seemed he was eager to try these two methods.

Zheng Xiu watched him leave, weighed the spirit stone in her hand, and said with a smile:

“He’s quite sensible, but his life won’t be long.”

Shaking her head, she showed a sweet smile, then continued looking at the items on the shelf.

After all, he’s a dying man, helping him clear his doubts is only right.

…

Walking out of the Merit Hall, Gu An quickly left.

This contact was made, now to see if the other party would take action.

If lucky, the Ring of Destiny would react.

And to find out if Jinxi was sent by her.

Today also counts as a big accomplishment.

As for accumulating merits to exchange for cultivation techniques.

Need to go ask at the Outer Sect mission assignment place.

That requires spending spirit stones again.

As for the just now four stones.

If the other party truly has no intention to keep an eye on him, then giving her four spirit stones as a gesture of goodwill.

If there’s indeed an unresolvable grudge…

Just leave it on her for now, can always get it back later.

We’re both at the Ninth Level of Qi Refining, once I’m fully prepared, a sudden attack would have a sixty percent chance of retrieving my spirit stones.

In the afternoon.

Gu An came to the Outer Sect mission assignment place.

It was exactly where Chen Yue was located.

There was no one else inside, Gu An walked in and respectfully said, “Greetings, Senior Sister Chen.”

Chen Yue slightly raised her brow and softly said upon seeing Gu An:

“You’ve got quite the nerve, still daring to wander around at this time.”
