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

Chapter 240 This time, it's my turn to win!

Ever since his master defied fate and changed his destiny, Yang Jian has come to believe that his master is the most powerful cultivator in the world. No matter what kind of Dao-supporting Sword Venerable, Dao Lord, or other transcendent forces such as the Seven Star Spirit Realm and the Star Sea Sect, none of them are his master's match.

He wanted to see his master become famous throughout the world, so that as his disciple, he would also feel proud.

Gu An looked at him, his face hardening, and said, "Do you cultivate immortality to show off, or to pursue eternal life? If it's to show off, you can become a top master in the martial arts world right now."

Yang Jian thought his master was angry, so he quickly said, "Of course, it's about pursuing immortality... Master, I was wrong. I just overheard other disciples talking about the ranking competition, so I couldn't help but ask."

Gu An didn't let him off the hook. He took this opportunity to temper his character. He said earnestly, "Not to mention that your current physique is not tolerated by heaven and earth. If others find out, it may bring about a killing. There are many people in this world who have already known their destiny. I am very strong, but there are always people stronger than you and heavens beyond heavens. There will always be people stronger than loose immortals. If cultivators don't need to fight for opportunities, then they should cherish what they already have."

"Do not flaunt your abilities, and do not underestimate the common people."

Yang Jian felt ashamed and filled with remorse.

Recently, he has indeed become arrogant. Seeing the disciples in the valley struggling to cultivate their Qi, he, who has already established his foundation, inevitably feels superior to them.

"Although I don't expect anything in return from you, I don't want you to become a reckless person. Since you're cultivating immortality, you should know that there's a will in the universe. If you go astray, you will eventually be punished by the heavens. I don't want you to become a vain person, do you understand?" Gu An continued, making Yang Jian's eyes red.

Yang Jian wasn't convinced by grand principles; he was simply moved when his master said again that he didn't need anything in return, and he felt even more unworthy of it.

He knows best what he's thinking. Even though he's been reborn, his heart still harbors selfish desires and a dark side, and it's these very things that make him feel ashamed of himself.

Look at Master. He is clearly an immortal, yet he does not bully the weak. He hides within the Tai Xuan Sect, lives among mortals, and is never arrogant.

He should learn from his master and become a true cultivator of immortality!

"Master, I..." Yang Jian began, but was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"Let's go, it's time to go back."

Gu An turned and left, and Yang Jian quickly followed.

……

In late summer, Gu An rode the Blood Prison Great Sage back from Tianya Valley. The Blood Prison Great Sage cursed the three monkey demons the whole way and even begged Gu An to release some of his cultivation, at least to the Core Formation Realm.

"No rush. This is a good opportunity to temper your temperament. You are too impatient and your words are hurtful. If you don't work on it, you'll bring trouble upon yourself sooner or later," Gu An said casually, holding a strange book in his hand, which Luo Hun had obtained from Li Xuandao.

In Luo Hun's words, this book is comparable to The Legend of the Green Knight!

Indeed, there were many scholars in the land of three dynasties, and some of them wrote even better works than Xuan Tianyi.

This book is not a travelogue, but rather a story about the romantic and idyllic life in the imperial city.

Upon hearing Gu An's words, the Blood Prison Great Sage immediately lost his composure.

He was aware of his own flaws, but once he got into an argument with someone, he couldn't vent his anger without giving the other person a good beating.

[Zhou Yu has become hostile towards you and harbors murderous intent towards you. Should you use your lifespan detection ability on him?]

Zhou Yu?

The Venerable Pavilion before the Tai Xuan Sect?

Gu An frowned. Why did this guy suddenly have murderous intent towards him? Could it be related to the martial arts technique?
The Zhou family has left the Tai Xuan Sect, which caused quite a stir. At least the disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect are very hostile to the Zhou family, considering them traitors, especially since they chose the Cang Tian Sect.

To this day, the biggest rival of the Tai Xuan Sect is the Cang Tian Sect. The disciples believe that if the Tai Xuan Sect wants to become the number one in the cultivation world, it must surpass the Cang Tian Sect.

Gu An's divine sense covered the entire continent, capturing the aura of the martial arts technique, and he quickly found it.

Wu Jue was in a dilapidated temple in the border mountains of the Taicang Dynasty. He was not alone; several other cultivators were also there, confronting him.

At this moment, Wu Jue frowned deeply, his hands clenched into fists inside his sleeves.

Zhou Yu, dressed in a black robe, stood before him, exuding an air of authority. The other Zhou family cultivators looked at Wu Jue with dissatisfaction.

“Wu Jue, how much resources has our Zhou family invested in you? Without the Zhou family, you wouldn’t be where you are today. Are you going to be ungrateful?” a female cultivator said in a deep voice.

Others followed suit, their tone mostly carrying a threatening undertone.

Wu Jue gritted his teeth and said, "The Tai Xuan Sect has also been kind to me. Does joining the Zhou family mean I am ungrateful?"

Zhou Yu slowly said, "Jue'er, although the world is at peace now, more and more ocean cultivators are coming, and the cultivation world will sooner or later face a calamity. As far as I know, even the sect leader and the Supreme Elder do not know the true identity of the Sword Venerable Fudao. If the Sword Venerable Fudao leaves one day, the Tai Xuan Sect will be immediately wiped out."

Wu Jue said decisively, "Impossible! Why should only the Tai Xuan Sect be destroyed? Is the Cang Tian Sect absolutely safe? Besides, besides the Sword Master Fu Dao, the Tai Xuan Sect has other great cultivators. I think the Tai Xuan Sect is stronger than the Cang Tian Sect!"

By saying these words, he had essentially broken ties with Zhou Yu, since Zhou Yu was now working for the Cangtian Sect.

Zhou Yu's face instantly turned ugly. He said, "You should think this through. Betraying the Zhou family will make you an enemy of the Zhou family. Out of consideration for our master-disciple relationship, I can let you go today, but if we meet again in the future, I will definitely kill you to prove the prestige of the Zhou family. Not only you, but everyone related to you will die, such as your only brother in the Tai Xuan Sect, Gu An."

“Besides Gu An, all the friends you made in the sect’s main city will also die.”

Zhou Yu really didn't want to let Wu Jue go. Wu Jue's comprehension was too strong, and he felt that Wu Jue could catch up with An Hao.

No genius in the Cangtian Sect can compare to An Hao!

Moreover, Wu Jue has no background and is all alone. He can marry into the Zhou family in the future to continue his innate talent and bloodline.

Upon hearing this, Wu Jue's expression turned grim. He tried to remain calm, took a deep breath, and asked, "When did you start investigating me?"

He panicked when Zhou Yu mentioned Gu An earlier. There were Zhou family spies within the Tai Xuan Sect!
Zhou Yu calmly said, "From the day you became my disciple, I learned about all your interpersonal relationships. It's not too late to turn back now. In the future, you can even bring the people you care about into the Cangtian Sect."

This time, he did not mention Gu An.

Because he couldn't persuade Gu An, he knew that Gu An was Pan An, and that Gu An was close to Lü Baitian.

The thought that Gu An could influence Wu Jue meant that Lü Baitian might be able to win over Wu Jue made his killing intent uncontrollable.

What makes Lü Baitian possess two unparalleled geniuses, An Hao and Wu Jue?

Wu Jue was caught in a struggle.

If the Zhou family were only after him, he wouldn't be afraid. But since Gu An was involved, he had to hesitate.

His talent and comprehension are among the best in the world, and he firmly believes that he can become an unparalleled powerhouse. However, he is still young and needs time to grow. In his eyes, the Zhou family is a behemoth, and he cannot shake the Zhou family with his strength.

The Zhou family also has spies within the Tai Xuan Sect, and he can't keep an eye on Gu An all the time, in case one day a Zhou family spy makes a move against Gu An...

He couldn't imagine that situation.

"Damn..."

Wu Jue clenched his fists, his gaze towards Zhou Yu seemingly spitting fire.

Zhou Yu sighed and said, "Disciple, in truth, your master..."

boom!
A bolt of lightning suddenly struck Zhou Yu, hitting him so fast that Wu Jue and the others had no time to react. The lightning's force sent everyone flying.

Wu Jue slammed against the wall, quickly regained his balance, and stared intently, his eyes wide open.

Zhou Yu had vanished, and the spot where he had been standing was now charred and smoldering.

The other Zhou family cultivators stared wide-eyed, their expressions one of astonishment.

"Master?"

One of the disciples called out, but no one responded.

"Not good! There's a powerful cultivator from the Tai Xuan Sect nearby!" a female disciple shouted, then disappeared from the spot. The other cultivators hurriedly left, no longer caring about their martial arts techniques.

Wu Jue stood there stunned for a moment, then decided to leave.

On his way away, he couldn't help but wonder whether Zhou Yu was dead or alive.
Who was behind that thunderclap just now?

It can't be a coincidence that Zhou Yu just happened to be struck by lightning, right?
the other side.

Gu An was still riding on the back of the Blood Prison Great Sage. Killing Zhou Yu only granted him ninety-two years of lifespan, which he found boring.

"I hope the Zhou family will be sensible and stop developing hostility towards me, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless..."

Gu An silently thought that although he still chose to cultivate in a low-key manner, he was still not someone the Zhou family could afford to offend!
Fortunately, in the days that followed, no member of the Zhou family developed any hostility towards Gu An.

Because no one thought that Gu An, who had just formed his core, could kill Zhou Yu, who was at the ninth level of the Integration Realm, out of thin air.

The person who killed Zhou Yu must be at the Profound Heart Realm, or even possibly the Great Ascension Realm. This is clearly a warning from the Tai Xuan Sect to them.

……

Inside a brightly lit hall, thousands of cultivators gathered. The palace was vast, with the hallway alone being over a hundred feet wide. On both sides stood teleportation arrays, and cultivators were constantly being teleported in.

An Hao stood still, looking around with curiosity about everyone around him.

"It is said that Li Ya from the Mysterious City has joined this entrance examination."

"The City of Mysteries? Could it be that supreme immortal treasure?"

"That's right, Li Ya is really lucky. I wonder how powerful he is now that he has mastered the immortal treasure."

"Hopefully he can't use a supreme immortal treasure, otherwise how can we compete with him?"

"Not using immortal treasures? Then he's just a minor cultivator from the barbarian continent, not worth mentioning at all."

An Hao listened to the discussions of the disciples around him, and his heart was filled with emotion.

The influence of the immortal treasure is truly immense; it has even allowed Li Ya's name to spread within the Star Sea Sect, causing the new disciples who are about to join to harbor hostility towards him.

Just as he was thinking this, a voice came: "An Hao, long time no see. This time, it's my turn to win."

An Hao turned his head and saw two men walking towards him, one of whom had a demonic aura.

It was Li Ya and Zhang Buku!

Li Ya was full of vigor, staring intently at An Hao, while Zhang Buku was full of curiosity.
