After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 200 - 191: Chop Down the Divine Tree Just Like That? (Part 2)

Chapter 200: Chapter 191: Chop Down the Divine Tree Just Like That? (Part 2)

Gu An: "...."

Why don’t you believe me when I say I am devoted to seeking the True Dao and never visit the brothel to find an Immortal?

"But the news did come through, and the other party succeeded. Now that the person is dead, is there anything else? Where did the Blood Refining Sect put the tree?

No other words, no merit," Chu Meng said.

Gu An looked at the person in front of him and said, "Is there a possibility that when I learned of the news, they were not yet dead, but the senior hadn’t come?"

"How would I make things difficult for you if I had come?" Chu Meng retorted.

Gu An was momentarily at a loss for words.

Chu Meng, munching on peanuts, said, "Actually, it’s cultivation that made me forget. My current cultivation level is beyond what you could even dream of.

Though I arrived late, you’ve gained a superior with formidable strength.

That’s still something to be happy about."

Hearing this, Gu An curiously asked, "Then, Senior, where do you rank in terms of strength among the Sect Disciples?"

Chu Meng looked at Gu An, rolled her eyes, and said, "No wonder you have no friends or Daoist couple. If I could be ranked highly, would I wait for you to ask?

Get to know the Sect situation better.

My level of cultivation is outstanding among you Inner Sect Disciples, but I can only compare among you all.

Yet my talent is superior."

"Cultivation that’s inadequate when compared with those above but more than sufficient compared with those below?" Gu An inquired.

Chu Meng placed the food in front of Gu An, saying, "Eat, talk less."

As Gu An ate, he noticed that the taste was indeed much better than before.

And it even contained Spiritual Energy.

Chu Meng’s background was truly not simple.

While eating, Gu An suddenly responded, "But I got that tree."

Gu An had not intended to speak of it, but the thing was in the yard; it would be discovered sooner or later.

Especially since Chu Meng appeared possibly to be at the Primordial Spirit Cultivation level.

He couldn’t understand, no matter how talented, how one could improve at such a rapid rate.

It was completely out of the ordinary.

Wasn’t she worried about being detected?

The reason he dared to reveal his Foundation Establishment and Golden Core was entirely because he appeared old.

At his age, it was plausible to say he was at the Primordial Spirit level.

There are advantages to being old, and others are less likely to pay too much attention.

If young and advancing rapidly in cultivation, one is most likely to draw attention.

The peanut-eating Chu Meng casually "Oh"ed, then suddenly froze, looking at Gu An incredulously and said, "What did you say?"

"The tree is in my yard," Gu An replied.

"Let’s go, take a look," Chu Meng immediately stood up.

The food was taken away by her as well.

After a long while.

They arrived at Gu An’s yard on Qianchen Peak.

As expected, they saw a very ordinary-looking tree.

The leaves were withered and tinged with red, as well as the dark red trunk.

Looking up, it was indeed the Evergreen Tree as recorded, as for why it was reddish, nobody had explained it.

But further down, Chu Meng frowned, noticing a large gap.

The tree was chopped, more than half gone.

"This..." Chu Meng looked at Gu An and pointed to the chopped spot.

"It’s been cut," Gu An stated truthfully.

Hearing this, Chu Meng’s brows furrowed with some anger: "Did the Blood Refining Sect do it?"

"I did it," Gu An did not lie.

Upon hearing this, Chu Meng was taken aback and tilted her head, puzzled: "Why would you do that?"

"To test if it was real or fake," Gu An found a reason.

Chu Meng had a face full of question marks.

What did this scoundrel just say?

Test for authenticity by cutting the tree?

Then what’s the point of your test?

"So, was it real or fake?" Chu Meng asked dumbly.

"I couldn’t tell," Gu An answered.

Whether it was a real Evergreen Tree, he did not know, but it was certainly an exceptional tree.

The Warm Current he felt from logging confirmed it.

But whether the tree would be taken away, he wasn’t certain.

However, if it were taken away, he would naturally find out where it was, and he might have a chance to go logging in the future.

After all, the Evergreen Tree also needed ten years to recover.

It was just not possible to allow Qi Sea Sky Gang to rapidly increase three or four times.

A bit of a pity.

But having learned the Age Star Sealing Technique and achieving Great Success with Vertical Earth Golden Light, he still made a profit.

Chu Meng sat at the table, eating peanuts, thinking about something. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Gu An was also eating, waiting for the other party to conclude.

A few moments later, Chu Meng spoke: "It’s gone."

"What’s gone?" Gu An asked curiously.

"Your reward for this mission is gone; I’ll take it as if you failed," Chu Meng said grumpily: "Having you as a subordinate, I’m really unlucky.

What should have been a great merit, you just ruined it."

"Just chop it down already.

How can I hand over an unfinished product?

How should I deal with being incessantly questioned?

How can I answer who chopped it down?

So, continue testing for authenticity. After all, there’s no reward.

You should just thank me. There aren’t many superiors as considerate as me."

Upon hearing this, Gu An was quite surprised; Chu Meng had actually left the tree standing.

But if the mission failed, it failed.

Besides, the other party also said to just chop it down.

Then if he continued logging, the other party probably wouldn’t say anything.

After some thought, Gu An earnestly said, "In that case, shall I give senior a gift?"

On hearing this, Chu Meng was slightly startled, "What is it?"

Gu An addressed the pond, "Noodles."

Quickly, Noodles wriggled out from the water, waddled ashore, and came to stand next to Gu An and Chu Meng.

"Wa lei wa lei?" Noodles looked at Gu An and asked.

What it was asking, Gu An had no idea – probably wondering what he wanted.

As such, Gu An asked Chu Meng to set up a perimeter — the treasure’s Qi being dense, it could easily be detected by outsiders.

The barrier was put up.

Only then did Gu An let Noodles open its mouth and spit out the sword from before.

For a moment, a lively sword hilt appeared from Noodles’ mouth.

As more of the sword body became visible, the sound of the sword hummed.

It seemed to be crying for help.

Chu Meng was greatly startled, taking out a magic treasure to stabilize the barrier.

After a moment,

A water-blue Spirit Sword stood in mid-air, emitting a chill.

Chu Meng looked at Gu An and said, "Bitch, I almost forgot you’re also a bitch. This thing doesn’t look like anything good; it’s like pushing me into a pit of fire."

Gu An couldn’t say much.

After all, that was true.

He dared not keep this item, and feared Noodles might suddenly spit it out. Giving it to Chu Meng was the best option.

Left with no choice, he could only say, "Senior, please determine if it’s a good item."

Chu Meng grabbed the sword, packed up the peanuts and other meat dishes, leaving only the cold dishes, "Wait for it to cool down."

Saying so, she turned and left.

Disappeared quickly.

The barrier dispersed as well.

Relieved, Gu An let out a sigh of relief.

Finally rid of it, but he still had no idea what sort of sword it was.

Additionally, it was quite a pity there were no mission rewards this time.

Thus, Gu An gave Noodles some food and walked away.

Casually taking the cold dishes with him.

He didn’t immediately return to Outer Peak but decided to go buy some tea.

Teahouse.

As Gu An entered, he saw Immortal Xu.

Her face wore a smile, more genuine than before.

And upon Gu An’s entrance, Immortal Xu clearly recognized the visitor.

Her heart skipped a beat, even somewhat anxious.

"Senior Brother Gu," Immortal Xu respectfully greeted.

"Do you have any cheap tea?" Gu An asked.

"Yes, we do," she replied immediately, fetching the tea, "This is for Senior Brother."

Gu An accepted the tea, leaving Spirit Stones in exchange.

However, as he was leaving, he overheard some people discussing at a nearby table.

"Alas, that junior brother from the logging site is in a bad spot, his Foundation Establishment failed."

"Yeah, I can’t believe it, he earned so many Spirit Stones, yet he didn’t even buy a single Foundation Establishment Pill for himself. Too frugal; aren’t Spirit Stones meant to be spent?"

Gu An just listened in passing, not paying much attention to their conversation.

Returning to Outer Peak, he strolled around the Sect and heard the news he wanted to hear.

The Law Enforcement Hall announced that they had seized the Blood Refining Sect’s Blood Group.

They even displayed it publicly.

Thus, Gu An also breathed a sigh of relief; the Blood Refining Sect’s people probably wouldn’t come after him anymore.

Elsewhere.

Qingmu City.

Luo Yutong found it hard to believe, "The item was taken by the Law Enforcement Hall’s people? How is that possible?"

"How could it not be?" Wu Yunzhong earnestly said, "My people saw it with their own eyes; there is no mistake."

"Did you find out about that person from Outer Peak?" Luo Yutong asked further.

"We found out. His name is Gu An, Golden Core Early Stage cultivation, now the leader of the Second Team in the back courtyard," Wu Yunzhong replied.

"Second Team leader; so the odds of him coming out are high?" Luo Yutong pondered, "I’ll find a way to contact him and see if the item is really not in his possession.

Even if it’s not, I still need to figure out why."

*******

It’s the beginning of the month, so I’ll casually ask for a monthly ticket, although I don’t have many.

Thank you!
