Beast Taming: Sharing Pets' Abilities-Chapter 361 - 360: Encountering Old Friends

Is it the initial entry to the Celestial Human Realm, or something higher?

Mo Laotou suspected it was the latter.

Because Xia Mingyang before was also a Celestial Human Realm cultivator, yet the feeling he gave was far inferior to the profound and unfathomable presence of the current Gu Yuan.

His expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed: "This old man pays respects to Senior Gu!"

In Mo Laotou’s eyes, Gu Yuan was previously just an ordinary Martial Master with decent talent, but now he had leapt to become an immeasurably deep powerhouse.

In contrast, he himself was still stuck at the phase of Innate Martial Master Great Perfection, and without any surprises, he would not see any change until his old age, which inevitably made him feel emotional.

Actually, since Gu Yuan was accepted as a disciple by He Ling True Master, he already felt quite emotional. Now, after witnessing Gu Yuan’s astounding progress, he felt even more bittersweet,

People are really incomparable...

Gu Yuan waved his hand with a smile and said, "No need for formality, Mo Lao. We are acquaintances, just call me Gu Yuan."

"I wouldn’t dare, wouldn’t dare."

Gu Yuan was indifferent, yet Mo Laotou repeatedly said he wouldn’t dare.

He was also an old hand and naturally knew what to say at what time. Even if Gu Yuan didn’t mind, he couldn’t leave any hidden dangers. What if others found out about this and came to trouble him?

"Did Senior Gu come here for an important matter? I recently acquired half a pound of Spirit Tea, if you don’t mind, would you like to try it?"

Mo Laotou spoke up, also showing goodwill.

No matter what Gu Yuan came for, it was an opportunity for him, because Gu Yuan was obviously on the rise, soaring high.

For such a person, it was certainly necessary to strive to establish good relations. If he could form even a slight connection, he would benefit immensely.

"Alright, then I’ll intrude."

Gu Yuan thought for a moment and eventually nodded in agreement.

He had come here now with nothing particular to do, just to revisit old places. Now that Mo Laotou was present, he might as well inquire about any recent occurrences in Beiliang County, to also settle their association.

"Senior, please come inside!"

Mo Laotou was overjoyed and hurriedly led the way.

...

Half an hour later, Gu Yuan left amidst Mo Laotou’s profuse and ecstatic gratitude.

The reason for Mo Laotou’s excitement was that Gu Yuan had casually left a bottle of Spirit Pills from his storage pouch, which was of little use to him.

Gu Yuan’s own cultivation was exceptionally pure and ordinary Spirit Elixirs were no longer suitable for him. Otherwise, they might obstruct his progress.

But for Mo Laotou, this bottle of average-quality Elixir could very well be his opportunity to breakthrough to the Celestial Human Realm.

It was like manna from heavens, and a golden manna at that, a grand opportunity. With good fortune, breaking through to the Celestial Human Realm, he would gain over a hundred years of lifespan. How could Mo Laotou not be excited?

Gu Yuan paid no mind to the ecstatic Mo Laotou behind him and turned to walk towards another street.

Just now, he had "seen" some interesting matters through his divine thought.

Before long, Gu Yuan arrived at the entrance of a courtyard by the roadside.

Knock knock knock! Knock knock knock!

He knocked on the door, and shortly afterwards, a plump woman opened the door.

"Sister Hu."

Gu Yuan nodded, greeting her.

"Is it you, Mr. Gu?!"

The woman was indeed Hu Xiuniang, the lover of the scholar Lin Zhou.

Previously, Gu Yuan’s half of the Purple Jade Small Gourd was obtained from Hu Xiuniang.

Because of this, Gu Yuan was able to gain the fortune from the Purple Jade Small Gourd, which was the hidden trace of a divine soul, declaring itself to be the Profound Origin Daoist, from whom he obtained his current main cultivation Daoist scripture, the Primordial True Water Scripture.

Thus, Gu Yuan was able to lay the foundation for himself and move forward steadily.

It can be said that Gu Yuan owed Hu Xiuniang a considerable favor, though whether he recognized it or not depended on himself.

Seeing Gu Yuan, Hu Xiuniang was somewhat surprised because she hadn’t seen him for quite a long time.

Then, with a somewhat complex expression, she stepped aside to let Gu Yuan pass: "Please, Mr. Gu, Lin Lang is at home now."

"Thank you."

Gu Yuan nodded and stepped into the courtyard to see two people seated there.

One was indeed his old acquaintance Lin Zhou, and the other was also a "familiar" face to Gu Yuan. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

This was a woman of graceful stature, with alluring curves and a ravishing appearance; her eyes beamed and sparkled, filled with charm.

But in Gu Yuan’s eyes, although this woman was beautiful, an exceptional beauty comparable to Su Qiuyue, Ji Yuefei, and Yan Xiaoling, he was clear that she wasn’t human.

Or rather, she was a demon!

Because this woman, though hiding it well, still couldn’t completely conceal traces of Demon Qi, which Gu Yuan noticed.

She was Su Xiaoyue, who had been summoned when Xia Mingyang exposed the Red Dragon Order earlier.

This woman was from the Celestial Fox Palace and had previously been released by He Ling True Master, reportedly due to the face of her aunt, Su Shiniang.

"Brother Gu."

Seeing Gu Yuan, Lin Zhou smiled and got up to greet him.

"Brother Lin, long time no see."

Gu Yuan also smiled and exchanged pleasantries with him.

Honest to say, Lin Zhou was his true old friend. The two did not engage in many interests or pursuits, mostly maintaining a gentlemanly friendship.

However, Su Xiaoyue at the side had her expression change repeatedly, looking at Gu Yuan with a gaze full of shock and disbelief.

"Is it you, Gu Yuan?!"

Su Xiaoyue was indeed quite shocked.

Over half a year ago, she had met Gu Yuan briefly. Later, she gradually heard some of his news.

Initially, she, of course, didn’t believe it because Gu Yuan back then was just an Innate Martial Master. Even if he progressed rapidly, he couldn’t possibly slay Golden Cores as easily as butchers slaughter pigs.

But gradually, she heard more about Gu Yuan, and as there were no doubts raised, she began to believe it, feeling quite emotional too.

What surprised her was that Gu Yuan had found his way here.

And the Gu Yuan before her did indeed seems shrouded and elusive, making it hard to discern reality, which shocked her even more.

She could be sure that Gu Yuan hadn’t condensed a Golden Core, but the more it was so, the more alarming it became.

As fellow Celestial Human Realm cultivators, she couldn’t even see through Gu Yuan’s reality, further proving his terrifying nature.

Moreover, the Gu Yuan in front of her was undoubtedly a fearless and ruthless individual!

Because not only had he killed a Golden Core cultivator, even the True Disciple of the Gu God Sect, Lv Kun, had perished by his hand.

Lv Kun was the most beloved grandson of a Yang Spirit mighty figure from the Gu God Sect.

Even such a character dared to be killed, Gu Yuan could be described as audacious beyond measure, being utterly unrestrained!

The key was that after doing so much and offending many, Gu Yuan was still alive and well, which was quite terrifying!

At least one thing was for certain, she couldn’t afford to provoke the Gu Yuan standing before her.
