If I become a saint, a celestial official will summon me to raise horses.

Chapter 1016 isn't that strong

Gu An led his divine steed slowly out of the woods and into the courtyard. He looked up and saw two people in the courtyard, one of whom was Shen Zhen, who was chatting with a one-armed old man in a green robe.

Upon hearing the sound of hooves, Shen Zhen and his companion turned around and saw Gu An leading his horse into the courtyard.

Upon seeing Gu An, the old man in the green robe immediately fell into a daze.

Looking at the other man's weathered face, Gu An couldn't help but smile and greet him, "Brother Chu, it's been a long time."

This old man in green robes is Chu Jingfeng from the Tai Xuan Sect of the Heavenly Spirit Great World. Gu An met him when he was young, and at that time, Chu Jingfeng was an inner disciple whom he looked up to.

Looking back, Gu An's first master, Cheng Xuandan, was still alive. That was a long time ago. During that time, an evil creature known as the Greedy and Anger Demon was causing trouble in the outer sect of Tai Xuan Sect. Chu Jingfeng was an inner disciple whom Cheng Xuandan invited to protect the Medicine Valley.

In the process of dealing with the demons of greed, anger, and delusion, Chu Jingfeng broke an arm.

The Greedy and Anger Demon was the first demon that Gu An killed. He remembered it vividly and recalled that Li Ya had already shown signs of being a hothead. Despite his weak cultivation, he dared to take up his sword to support Chu Jingfeng, resulting in serious injury.

As for his other senior brother, Meng Lang, he was in a terrible state, hiding in his room trembling with fear.

As Gu An looked at Chu Jingfeng, memories of the past flooded back, filling him with a sense of melancholy.

Chu Jingfeng's feelings far surpassed Gu An's, because the years had been much longer and more agonizing for him.

Now he is old and gray, no longer young, while Gu An looks just like he did back in the Tai Xuan Sect, young and handsome, without a trace of age. Even he doubts whether their past relationship was real.
"Gu An, it's been a long time."

Chu Jingfeng spoke, and as he said these words, he felt a pang of sadness and a sense of inferiority.

His initial high hopes had vanished, and he looked at Gu An, unsure of what to say.

Gu An loosened the reins of the divine steed, stepped forward and pulled Chu Jingfeng to sit down at a stone table. He then instructed Shen Zhen to prepare wine and dishes. Shen Zhen glared at him but did not complain and got up to leave.

Gu An began exchanging pleasantries with Chu Jingfeng, inquiring about his experiences over the years. Chu Jingfeng began to recount his past, giving a brief overview of his experiences, which sounded smooth sailing. However, Gu An knew that his life had not been as easy as he described.

Shen Zhen quickly brought wine and dishes, placed them on the table, and poured wine for the two of them. After doing all this, she retreated to sit down in front of the refining cauldron.

"Actually, the reason I came to find you this time is because I have a great opportunity to share with you. It is difficult for me to bear this cause and effect alone. Of all the people I know, you are the most powerful. If I hadn't heard of the name of Wushi a few years ago, I wouldn't have known that you were already in Zhongtian."

When Chu Jingfeng spoke of that great opportunity, his face regained its radiance. Even though he was old, his journey from the mortal realm to the Central Heaven had cultivated an extraordinary demeanor and confidence.

A cultivator like him can regain his youth, but his spirit is gone, and his appearance is related to his temperament.

Gu An smiled and asked, "What great opportunity is it? Tell me about it."

Chu Jingfeng composed himself and said seriously, "This is an opportunity related to the Great Dao Emperor. With your cultivation level, you should know about the Great Dao Emperor. This opportunity can allow you and me to obtain the inheritance of the Great Dao Emperor's founder, but we need to go to the Chaos..."

He recounted in detail how he obtained this opportunity, without holding back a single detail. In truth, he was also wary and wanted Gu An to help him analyze it.

Is this great opportunity real? Should I take it?

After he finished speaking, he looked at Gu An, his expression slightly tense, and his right hand unconsciously reached for the wine glass.

Gu An slowly spoke, "Leaving aside whether this opportunity is real or fake, do you know about the struggle between the Heavenly Dao and Chaos?"

Chu Jingfeng frowned and shook his head slightly. Although he had been in Zhongtian for a long time, he was still at the bottom of Zhongtian and had no access to information about Chaos.

Gu An recounted the struggle between the Heavenly Dao and Chaos, including the troubles facing the Heavenly Court. Chu Jingfeng listened with wide-eyed amazement, while simultaneously feeling terrified.

If what Gu An said is true, then this opportunity leading him to Chaos is indeed strange. But…

Humans always have a bit of wishful thinking, wondering what if it's true?

Chu Jingfeng's success today is not due to talent, but to countless opportunities and perseverance.

After arriving in Zhongtian, he became insignificant again, and his cultivation could no longer increase. He longed to encounter a great opportunity to change his fate, at least to allow him to gain a foothold in Zhongtian, or even to continue pursuing the Great Dao.

If anyone else had said this, Chu Jingfeng would have been furious, thinking that the other party had ulterior motives. But since these words came from Gu An, he had no choice but to waver.

Gu An was an extremely important guide for him. When he was depressed, it was Gu An who guided him to find his fighting spirit again.

Throughout his life, Gu An shone brightly, always saving lives.

The titles of Sword Master Fudao and Ancestor Wushi have always guided him.

"Chu Jingfeng, you're getting more and more confused as you get older. What opportunity in this world can compare to the one in front of you?"

Shen Zhen's voice came from the side, his tone sarcastic.

Upon hearing this, Chu Jingfeng was immediately startled and looked at Gu An in astonishment.

"Speaking of which, I do know the existence of the Creator Emperor quite well."

Gu An said with a smile. Even Shen Zhen was surprised by his words and looked at him curiously.

Upon hearing this, Chu Jingfeng looked nervously at Gu An.

He was genuinely shocked. He had gone through countless hardships to find the legacy of the founder of the Great Dao Emperor, only to discover that Gu An knew that founder. He already knew that Gu An was very powerful, but he was still taken aback by this.

"This...he..."

Chu Jingfeng suddenly didn't know what to say.

Gu An laughed and said, "His name is Taiqi Emperor. He had his eye on one of my disciples, so I had no choice but to kill him. The power of the Great Dao Emperor is actually not that strong."

Emperor Taiqi!

Killing?

Not that strong?
Chu Jingfeng was so shocked that his face changed drastically and his whole body trembled. Shen Zhen's eyes widened as well.

"Wait, which disciple is being targeted? Could it be that, as the Great Sage of Blood Prison said, you have other disciples outside?" Shen Zhen seized on the key point of the question and kept asking.

Gu An glanced at her and said, "I have so many disciples, it's normal that you don't know."

Shen Zhen fell silent, feeling it necessary to inform the other disciples of this news.

Chu Jingfeng was still processing Gu An's words; Gu An's strength far exceeded his expectations.

Along his journey, he had witnessed many Great Dao Emperors, who were as powerful as gods, making him yearn for them. Therefore, in his mind, the mythical being who created the Great Dao Emperors must be incredibly strong, perhaps even stronger than the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court.

But he never expected that the invincible expert he had imagined would be killed by Gu An so easily.
