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

Chapter 1041 Snake Demon
Wu Xie naturally agreed to An Xin's instructions. The three chatted for a while, and then An Zizai took Wu Xie away.

Anxin watched the two figures walk away, her heart filled with emotion.

She knew that Wu Xie's journey would not be easy, and she also had the idea of ​​changing his fate. But as soon as this idea came to her mind, she saw his other fate lines.

No matter how things change, Wu Xie will face tribulations in the underworld; only the manner of those tribulations will change.

She suddenly realized why her master, who was so powerful, didn't reveal his destiny to his disciples.

Fate may change, but everyone has their own destiny.

As she wielded the Sword of No Beginning for longer and longer, she could glimpse the future of every living being in the No Beginning Realm every day in meditation. The overwhelming amount of information initially made her very uncomfortable, but now it has gradually given her a sense of enlightenment.

She only came to her senses after An Zizai and the other person disappeared outside the hall.

"Master, where are you now? Why don't you even gather medicinal herbs anymore?"

Anxin muttered to herself, her tone filled with resentment. She hadn't expected her master to disappear after creating the Boundless Realm, leaving her with such a huge mess to deal with. She didn't have much time to cultivate anymore, and right now, there were disciples rushing towards her Dao Palace.

Although she doesn't have time to cultivate, she is getting stronger faster now than when she cultivated diligently before.

She is almost at the level of the Great Immortal of Wonderful Truth, which even she finds absurd.

Whenever An Xin thinks of this, she is amazed by Gu An's strength.

Without the Boundless Sword given to her by Gu An, she could not have broken through so quickly.

While An Xin was thinking of Gu An, Gu An was in a mortal realm beneath the Three Thousand Great Worlds.

Now he doesn't need to pick herbs, and his lifespan can continue to increase because the reincarnated beings in the Boundless Realm cultivate very quickly. Each time they break through, one-tenth of their increased lifespan will be converted into Gu An's lifespan.

This is much faster than gaining lifespan by picking herbs.

Of course, Gu An would occasionally sneak back to pick herbs, a fact known only to the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower.

At this moment, he was listening to a storyteller in the inn. The storyteller was telling a story about the world of cultivation. Not only the guests on the first floor, but also those on the second floor were listening, occasionally peeking out and throwing copper coins into the center of the stage on the first floor.

Gu An sat alone at a table laden with over a dozen dishes, a truly extravagant affair.

A heavily made-up woman in a blue dress swayed her hips as she walked over. She sat down next to Gu An and asked with a soft laugh, "Sir, you look unfamiliar. Is this your first time visiting our town?"

As she spoke, she moved closer to Gu An, looking at him with a smile on her face, her eyes like water, making one's heart tremble.

Gu An glanced at her and smiled, "Yes, this is my first time here. I heard there's a snake demon here, so I came to see if it's true."

"You dare to look at me, you snake demon? You're so bold! I'm terrified every day. I don't dare go home after dark because no one is with me."

The woman in green said in surprise, and as she spoke, she leaned on Gu An's shoulder and touched the back of Gu An's hand with one hand.

For some reason, touching him made her feel refreshed, and she suddenly felt even more greedy for Gu An.

"If you say that, I'm afraid you're a snake demon trying to lure me home."

Gu An joked, but he did not stop the woman in green from doing so.

Seeing the snake demon was just an excuse; he came here for someone else.

There are so many fun places to visit, and he has been to quite a few remote mountain towns like this.

Hearing Gu An's words, the woman in green remained calm and smiled, saying, "If I were a snake demon, would you dare risk spending a night with me?"

Gu An took out a bag of silver from his pocket and said, "Go and call the beggar at the gate in. If you can get him in and to come to me, this bag of silver is yours."

The woman in green froze.

Do you really think I'm a prostitute?
Her smile quickly returned to normal. She patted Gu An on the shoulder and laughed, "Sir, I'm very greedy, you just wait!" With that, she got up and left. Although she didn't care about the money, she had to accept the task in order to maintain her status.

Gu An smiled, picked up his chopsticks, and continued eating.

The storyteller's voice filled the shop, and just as the story reached its most exciting part, his tone rose and fell with passion, eliciting cheers from the customers from time to time.

Time ticked by, but the woman in green had not yet returned.

About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a rumbling sound came from outside the building.

"A snake...a snake demon!"

A desperate scream came from outside the building, plunging the store into silence. Everyone was stunned, thinking they had misheard.

Immediately afterwards, a commotion arose outside, as if a crowd was running around, which made the customers inside the store even more panicked.

The waiter ran out to take a look, and quickly returned, exclaiming in terror, "There really is a snake demon outside!"

Upon hearing this, the customers in the shop panicked completely and ran towards the backyard.

Gu An remained calm and continued drinking in his original seat.

Gu An slowly got up only after the inn had quieted down.

At this moment, there were still people inside the inn, hiding on the edge of the windowsill, nervously looking out at the main street.

The street was in disarray, with fruits and vegetables scattered all over the ground. The lower half of the woman in green revealed the shape of a snake, with its tail supporting its flesh, making it a full two zhang tall.

She was staring angrily at the entrance of the inn, where a beggar was sitting with his back against a pillar. His hair was disheveled and his face was so dirty that his features were obscured.

"Who are you, and why are you hiding here?"

The woman in green gritted her teeth and asked. She had tried to forcibly take the beggar into the inn, but was repelled by a terrifying force, which filled her with apprehension.

She no longer cared about the task Gu An had given her; all she wanted to do was find out who this person was.

"Since you're afraid, why don't you leave? Are you willing to risk your life for this treasure?"

A hoarse voice came from the beggar's mouth. He did not get up, nor did he even look up at the woman in green.

The woman in green had icy eyes and said, "So you've come for this treasure too. Don't blame me for not warning you, I'm just a spy. The demon king behind me could come at any time. Think carefully before you act."

Upon hearing this, the beggar slowly stood up. He sighed and said, "You're clearly terrified, yet you still threaten me. As a pawn, why don't you dare to defy your own fate?"

"That's true. Resisting fate comes at a price, just like me."

He looked up and revealed a pair of cold eyes.

When his gaze locked onto her, the woman in blue felt as if she were in a cold cellar, her whole body turning ice-cold.

"you……"

At this moment, the woman in green realized she couldn't move, which filled her with despair and regret.

She should have run away!
Unfortunately, no if.

The beggar stepped forward, approaching the woman in blue.

"Why scare her anymore? She's just a pitiful little monster."

Gu An's voice came from behind, causing the beggar to stop.
