After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 31 - How about taking down the mother and daughter?

Three Qi Refining Sixth Level cultivators, none of them seemed simple.

Gu An's gaze rested on the three of them, with hardly any expression visible.

"How many Spirit Stones do you senior brothers require?"

"Not much, ten is not too few, twenty is not too many. Judging by your age, you should have plenty of Spirit Stones, right?"

Indeed, Gu An thought to himself, he did have quite a few.

Then he shook his head and said, "Sorry to disappoint you, senior brothers, I don't really have any Spirit Stones."

He didn't plan on giving away any Spirit Stones.

If the other party didn't want to end things peacefully, then the only option would be to take action.

As a fellow Qi Refining Sixth Level cultivator, he could not possibly give in at this moment.

The situation in the Outer Sect was complex.

If you bow your head at every turn, you'll only invite more trouble.

But even if he could defeat them, he couldn't go too far.

Since nobody knew much about the other's background, it wasn't necessary to take things too far and the matter could pass.

"No Spirit Stones?" The gaunt man smiled as he reached out, "Then let us take a look at your Storage Treasure.

We're reasonable people. If you truly have none, naturally we won't force you.

And we certainly won't get physical."

Gu An lowered his gaze, ready to make a move.

Naturally, he wouldn't wait for the other party to strike first before he retaliated.

That would be too passive; this was no place for arguing.

He was just about to harness the Mountain Opening Fist, when suddenly, with a slap, a hand pushed away the gaunt man's hand.

Gu An was startled.

He realized that Hua Jiyang had appeared beside them at some point.

"What does this junior brother plan to do?" Hua Jiyang asked the gaunt man with a smile.

"Hua Jiyang?" The gaunt man furrowed his brows, "Aren't many matters none of each other's business?"

"This is my junior brother, what do you think?" Hua Jiyang replied off-handedly.

Hearing this, the gaunt man's brows furrowed deeper.

Then, he turned his head and left.

Gu An was slightly surprised.

He looked at Hua Jiyang and thanked him, "Thank you, senior brother."

"Don't mention it. After all, you don't have any Spirit Stones," Hua Jiyang said with a smile.

They had almost all been logging together.

So whether the goal had been met or not, he knew clearly.

Gu An smiled helplessly.

Then Hua Jiyang waved his hand and quickly walked away.

Gu An also let out a sigh of relief.

Since there was no need to fight, then it was fine.

For the following days, Hua Jiyang stayed with Gu An as he came out, and slowly, the people who had been watching Gu An shifted their gaze away.

Such direct gazes could be perceived by Gu An.

It seemed he was benefiting from the reputation of those beside him.

Today, when Gu An returned, he found that those people had once again approached the woman's dwelling to borrow Spirit Stones.

The little girl was still frightened and hid.

Just as before, Gu An ignored them.

And they did not come to trouble him.

These people were clearly not normal; they were deliberately causing trouble for that mother and daughter.

But all these had nothing to do with Gu An, he glanced at his panel.

He could advance now, not just that.

Qi Sea Sky Gang could also enter the Fifth Stage.

His strength was rising bit by bit; coming to the Outer Sect was indeed the right choice.

Not only were the Cultivation Techniques free, logging didn't require sneaking around like before.

It's just that reaching the mist form for Qi Sea Sky Gang would still take quite some time.

He was somewhat looking forward to it.

But just as he had returned and opened the door, his pupils contracted.

A woman was seated in the living room.

His first instinct was to use Hundred Steps Chasing Wind to retreat.

However, she stopped him by calling out, "It's me."

Only then did Gu An take a closer look at the person in front of him.

She was wearing a blue immortal dress, her hair simply tied up, her complexion rosy, her Qi contained to such an extent that one couldn't discern her cultivation level.

However, those delicate facial features looked familiar to Gu An.

Chu Meng.

"We meet again," Chu Meng said with a smile on her face:

"I never thought that I would actually become your contact person, that is, your handler. Your antidote is in my hands."

Gu An looked at the person in front of him and let out a sigh in his heart.

The original contact had betrayed them; he had thought it would be Lu Ruan.

But it turned out to be Chu Meng.

Gu An respectfully paid his respects: "Greetings to my senior."

"Tsk, tsk, you didn't treat me like this before," Chu Meng said coldly, looking at the person in front of her:

"Back then, you just crippled me without a second thought."

"At that time, we weren't on the same side," Gu An replied.

"On the same side?" Chu Meng laughed: "Such childish words coming from the mouth of a man in his forties, it's truly disappointing.

But it's fine if you say it to me; don't say it to Lu Ruan.

She looks down on you; to her, you are not worthy of being considered one of 'us.'"

"Thank you for your guidance, senior," Gu An nodded.

Indeed, he had always felt this way when he saw her.

But the term 'one of us' was just said in passing.

He would have to be more careful with his words in the future.

Chu Meng looked around and asked: "You don't even have tea here?"

Gu An shook his head: "Senior must know my situation."

"I'm a bit curious, if you weren't poisoned, would you have sent me back then?" Chu Meng asked.

"Who knows?" Gu An did not answer.

After all, there were no 'what ifs'.

Chu Meng felt that the person in front of her was too boring and then said: "I'm here for a mission this time."

"A mission?" Gu An was surprised: "So soon?"

He thought that it was just a simple meeting.

"Right, let me tell you another thing, the people who know you are a hidden agent are only me, Lu Ruan, and that despicable woman," Chu Meng said somewhat unexpectedly: "Others working as hidden agents have many in the know, but you are almost unknown.

You should feel that you are most unique to that despicable woman."

That's because I'm just disposable cannon fodder, Gu An sighed inwardly.

However, he felt that this senior in front of him liked to make assumptions.

He decided not to talk too much.

Finding it uninteresting, Chu Meng said: "Let's talk about the mission, do you know if there are people living in the closest residence to you?"

"That mother and daughter?" Gu An asked.

"Yes, your mission is to take them down," Chu Meng said with a smile.

"Take down?" Gu An was puzzled.

"They are a widow and her daughter, don't you have any protective instincts?" Chu Meng asked.

Gu An shook his head: "No."

"Isn't she beautiful?"

"Beautiful."

"Then why not fulfill the beautiful tale of the immortal couple?"

"..."

You might be sick.

They're both burdens, how can that be considered a beautiful tale?

Chu Meng shrugged her shoulders and said: "Since you're unwilling, then get a secret from her."

"What secret?" Gu An asked.

"I don't know, those who are making things difficult for her are doing it for this secret as well," Chu Meng explained simply:

"This woman's husband went to a sect's secret realm a while ago and has not returned.

That despicable woman and others have found something, but they're not certain, so they've set their sights on his wife and child."

Listening, Gu An thought of the mother and daughter and suddenly asked: "Is it really okay for the sect to 'borrow' Spirit Stones like this?"

Borrowing like this seemed to have an impact on the sect's development.
