After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In
Chapter 117: Where’s My Pet?

Chapter 117: Chapter 117: Where’s My Pet?

Gu An knew from Senior Sister Chen Yue that his residence was still available.

Somewhat sentimental.

After more than half a year, he could actually come back.

Not to mention Senior Sister Chen Yue, he was also quite moved himself.

That place was really not suitable for anyone, he nearly couldn’t hold on.

Whether this matter would come to an end or not depended on the choices of the people inside.

Wanyan Hua’s death posed a bit of a problem.

If he delved deeper, he might be summoned for questioning again.

Quite troublesome.

On the way, Gu An noticed that some people were always staring at him.

They were the ones who had borrowed Spirit Stones.

They were restless.

This surprised yet pleased Gu An.

It had only been half a year, how had they become so bold?

Touching his chin, he realized.

He hadn’t taken care of his appearance, thus the stubble.

He hadn’t been attentive to his appearance before, even less so since his time in Exile Land.

Furthermore, after more than half a year, many had gradually forgotten the incident with the Spirit Stones.

Seeing such a disheveled Outer Sect Disciple walking toward the east,

Naturally, he would catch people’s attention.

After all, he didn’t look like someone with impressive strength.

Gu An sighed.

Intentionally showing a weak demeanor.

Then, he continued walking.

It would be a pity not to earn Spirit Stones as they were the kind intentions of his fellow disciples.

Sure enough, five men blocked Gu An’s path.

"Junior Brother, I have a sister who was injured recently and needs quite a few Spirit Stones for treatment..."

Before the other party could finish speaking, Gu An threw a punch.

Quick as lightning.

All lay prostrated on the ground.

Faces filled with terror.

Gu An looked at the five men and said:

"Fellow Junior Brothers, I’ve dropped some Spirit Stones, have you picked them up?"

These familiar words made them stunned.

Upon closer inspection, a young man looked at Gu An with panic and said, "Gu, Gu, Senior Brother Gu?"

"Do you recognize me?" Gu An was somewhat surprised.

Even with his current state, the other party could recognize him.

Not an easy feat.

However, he did not say much more, only asking whether they had picked up Spirit Stones.

Instantly, the five men recalled the terror of being ruled by dropped Spirit Stones.

Besides, the man before them was someone who had even killed within the Inner Sect; they, a bunch of Outer Disciples, were simply not enough to challenge him.

How could they dare not pick up Spirit Stones?

Gu An obtained twenty-five Spirit Stones, feeling quite sentimental.

The Outer Sect brothers were indeed enthusiastic.

He received Spirit Stones as soon as he returned.

Might as well return to Senior Sister Chen now.

Seeing Gu An return and give back fifteen Spirit Stones, Chen Yue was somewhat astonished.

"Some brothers are generous with their wealth," Gu An explained briefly.

Then he left.

On the road, he deliberately showed weakness again.

On his way back, along with the previously obtained twenty-five Spirit Stones, he had earned a total of seventy Spirit Stones.

Others did not earn that much in a year.

He had earned it in the blink of an eye.

No wonder so many people liked to "borrow" Spirit Stones.

The rate at which Spirit Stones came was indeed fast.

Including those in the Storage Treasure, he now had one thousand and fifty-three Spirit Stones.

Such an immense sum made him feel somewhat elated.

Enough to buy a decent Magic Treasure.

Just not a Golden Core Technique.

Especially the Innate Longevity Technique.

This was indeed troublesome; without a technique, he couldn’t continue to improve.

His advancement was too rapid, leaving no time to obtain techniques.

Upon returning to his residence, Gu An glanced at the pond.

He did not see any trace of the noodles.

"Where have they gone?"

Looking carefully around the pond, he found some clumsily scratched symbols.

He didn’t know what they meant.

Shaking his head, he stopped wondering and went back to his room.

He discovered that there was no dust here—it must have been cleaned.

With that, Gu An sat down and began to restore his cultivation.

In Exile Land, he always had to suppress himself and couldn’t reach an unprecedented peak.

At this moment, Spiritual Energy was madly circulating within his body.

A powerful Qi was released.

At this instant, he felt all the meridians in his body stretch comfortably.

His strength had increased by a level.

Especially the Qi Sea Sky Gang.

The Small Success stage of the Qi Sea Sky Gang now had an additional droplet of water.

It was becoming increasingly powerful.

Combined with the Sea Suppressing Fist, he could almost dominate his peers in combat.

However, the more he practiced the Qi Sea Sky Gang, the more he felt it was different from Senior Brother Gu’s Qi Sea Sky Gang.

"Why is that? Did he cultivate it incorrectly?"

Gu An was puzzled in his heart.

He felt that Senior Brother Gu’s Qi Sea Sky Gang was much weaker than his.

Perhaps it wasn’t noticeable in the first volume.

But definitely, the second volume would clearly show the disparity, and the third volume would widen the gap significantly.

The difference between them would be like that between heaven and earth.

But why such a result occurred, he couldn’t understand.

And who could he ask about it?

He could only take the time to visit the Book Collection Pavilion to look for answers.

That evening.

Gu An felt someone enter outside his door.

He perceived that it was Chu Meng.

He was somewhat puzzled when he saw her.

He couldn’t detect her cultivation.

How could that be?

He himself was at Perfect Foundation Establishment, could she have surpassed that stage?

If she was at Golden Core, how could he have had a chance back in the Vajra Spiritual Wood Garden?

For a moment, Gu An was doubtful in his heart but didn’t think too much of it.

Things had come to this point; he could only focus on improving his cultivation.

However, she seemed somewhat surprised to see him.

"How did you become so ugly?" Chu Meng exclaimed in shock as she walked in.

Gu An: "..."

You really don’t know how to speak.

Ugly where?

Chu Meng used magic to light up the room and said, "Don’t be disgruntled, if you go to sponsor some Immortals with your current look, they would scorn you.

You probably wouldn’t even be let through the front door."

Gu An bowed his head; was it really that exaggerated?

He looked at his clothes, and it seemed like it’d been a long time since they were changed.

How could he have new clothes in the Exile Land when he only had a few sets of clothes to change into?

Moreover, the consumption was enormous there; even good clothes would become worn out once inside.

Gu An set aside his thoughts and asked about Mian Tiao (Noodle).

He hadn’t seen it upon returning today.

"Noodle?" Chu Meng looked around and said,

"Probably went out to play, it’ll be back in a couple of days."

"It runs out to play?" Gu An was somewhat surprised.

"Yes, it runs out once every month and comes back in three to five days," Chu Meng said casually.

Gu An: "..."

Why didn’t it do that before?

But Mian Tiao (Noodle) was especially good at hiding, so there was no need to worry too much.

At this time, Chu Meng sat at the table, brought out many dishes, and said:

"To welcome you and clean off the dust of travel."

Gu An looked at the table full of cuisines he had never seen before, his appetite indeed aroused.

They were evidently expensive dishes.

Chu Meng was indeed wealthy.

Gu An didn’t stand on ceremony and started to eat.

"How did you get out?" Chu Meng asked during the meal.

"I completed a mission and got out," Gu An casually replied.

"Completed a mission and got out?" Chu Meng was astonished, "How many people did you kill?"

Gu An paused and said, "What kind of question is that, Senior Sister? Must completing a mission involve killing people?"

"I believe others when they say they didn’t kill, but not you," Chu Meng said.

"It was just good luck; I happened to see some people fighting amongst themselves and conveniently picked up the mission items," Gu An said as he ate.

Chu Meng nodded, "So they completed the mission, and you lay in ambush and killed them."

Gu An: "...."

You see right through people.

But he still shook his head: "Senior Sister, please don’t talk nonsense."

Chu Meng did not pursue the subject further but instead scrutinized Gu An carefully and said:

"Your foundation hasn’t been damaged?"

"Fortunate," Gu An replied.

Chu Meng’s expression turned somber.

Gu An’s heart skipped a beat, had something been discovered?

Regarding Chu Meng, he didn’t want her to know that he could perform Qi Sea Sky Gang.

He always felt that it might lead to trouble.
