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

Chapter 283 The Reincarnation of a Person of Great Fortune

Out of politeness, Shen Xinzi did not use his divine sense, so he did not know the contents of the book in Gu An's hand. Even though Gu An refused, he did not think it would be impolite.

He asked why, and Gu An replied that Buddhist monks were not suited to reading secular books, and then gave Shen Xinzi a copy of "The Righteous and the Demonic".

"The Righteous and the Demonic" tells the story of the Sword Master Fudao carving the words "Righteous Path" on the Heaven-Mending Platform, exposing the darkness of the Taixuan Sect. This book not only did not damage the reputation of the Taixuan Sect, but also made more people feel the Taixuan Sect's pursuit of the Righteous Path and actively correct their mistakes.

Although this book is not as popular as Journey to the West or Investiture of the Gods, it is still loved and studied repeatedly by many people within various religions.

Shen Xinzi took the book, and upon seeing the title on the cover, he became interested. He then thanked Gu An and turned to leave.

After he left, Gu An took out the Tai Xuan Secret Manual and continued reading.

He rarely interferes with other people's troubles. When asked, he simply tells them his true thoughts without forcing anyone to do anything.

He has his own life to live, so why worry so much?
Gu An likes to see himself as an observer of other people's lives. He will do what he wants, but he won't be overly attached to anything, so as not to make it a regret.

……

After arriving at the Third Medicine Valley, Shen Xinzi decided not to leave, and Gu An did not refuse this great cultivator at the ninth level of the Immortal Realm.

The Third Medicine Valley is now undoubtedly the strongest place in the Tai Xuan Sect and even the continent. With Shen Xinzi and Nine-Finger Divine Lord around, Gu An is not worried about the safety of the Medicine Valley and feels more at ease when going out.

Five years have passed quickly.

This summer was not as hot as in previous years. Gu An went downstairs and saw many cultivators flying across the sky.

This year, the Tai Xuan Sect is preparing to hold another alchemy conference, which will be very lively.

Gu An also decided to go and see what was going on. After going downstairs, he rode away on his Blood Prison Great Sage.

As soon as the Blood Prison Great Sage got up, Ji Xiaoyu caught up with him.

Seeing this, Gu An could only roll down, pat Blood Prison Great Sage on the back, and say, "You can move around as you please today."

With Ji Xiaoyu around, Gu An couldn't ride a horse properly; they couldn't possibly ride together, could they?

What kind of talk would that be if it got out?

Gu An values ​​his reputation and innocence very much.

The Great Sage of Blood Prison grinned from ear to ear, then turned and left.

Ji Xiaoyu asked, "Why not continue riding?"

Gu An rolled his eyes at her and said, "I'm already riding it, and you still come looking for me. You must want to come along. Since that's the case, I have no choice but to take you with me."

This girl was asking a question she already knew the answer to; she just wanted to test his thoughts.

As expected, Ji Xiaoyu's lips curved slightly upon hearing this, and a charming smile appeared on her face.

"Let's go for a walk around the outer gate."

"Ah."

The two leaped into the air and flew towards the outer city gate.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Gu An and his companion arrived at the foot of the Heaven-Mending Platform. Looking around, the platform was packed with people, a truly magnificent sight.

Gu An sensed the presence of many immortal cultivators. Although his days passed year after year, the Tai Xuan Sect was different, growing stronger year by year.

It is said that most of the elders in the Tai Xuan Sect have been replaced, and their overall cultivation level has been raised.

The powerful families in the sects would try to win over cultivators from overseas, so their abdication was not because they were being suppressed. On the contrary, this choice made them stronger and allowed them to gain greater benefits.

As Gu An scanned the area, he also used a lifespan probe. He liked to see a person's maximum lifespan, something even a mystical immortal couldn't discern.

Ji Xiaoyu asked, "I heard you know another Ji Xiaoyu?"

Gu An replied, "Yes, it's the Third Miss I mentioned before."

"Could she be me? My past life?" Ji Xiaoyu suddenly asked.

Gu An looked at her in surprise. Could it be that this girl has awakened her memories of her past life?

Ji Xiaoyu replied, "My name was something I was born with, and I have a strong sense of identity with it. It doesn't seem like an acquired habit. Moreover, I was born not long after that Ji Xiaoyu died."

"The first time I met you, I felt a sense of closeness to you, and you also happen to be familiar with another Ji Xiaoyu. I don't think this is a coincidence."

She stared intently at Gu An, waiting for his answer.

Gu An raised his hand to press her forehead, then withdrew it and whispered, "You don't have a fever?"

Ji Xiaoyu glared at him and said, "I'm serious!"

Gu An spread his hands, saying helplessly, "Why are you asking me? I'm just a Core Formation cultivator. Do you think I can see through the cycle of reincarnation?"

“But ever since we met, you haven’t seemed to be curious about my name.”

"That's because I was already shocked before you arrived. You can ask the deputy sect leader."

"is it?"

"Otherwise, Miss, even if it's true, I don't want to know. If you really are the same person as her, it's terrifying to think about. What kind of conspiracy is behind this? If I, with my Core Formation cultivation, were to get involved, I'm afraid I would be reduced to ashes."

Gu An said with a look of fear, and as he spoke, he took a step to the side.

Ji Xiaoyu found it reasonable after hearing this. Looking at Gu An's expression and posture, she said helplessly, "I was just asking, why are you so afraid?"

"I've survived to this day thanks to one principle: avoid trouble. I've been through internal strife within the outer sect, invasions by demonic forces, and calamities from demons and monsters. You have no idea how difficult it has been for me."

Gu An listed them out in detail, and as he spoke, a proud look appeared on his face.

Seeing his expression, Ji Xiaoyu realized that he was just being cheeky, and she couldn't help but feel both annoyed and amused.

"Brother Gu, you've arrived." A figure stepped down from the Heaven-Mending Platform; it was Wu Jue.

Wu Jue is now at the second level of the Nascent Soul Realm. He is a renowned genius of the Tai Xuan Sect. He has received a lot of resources from the Tai Xuan Sect for cultivation, and he is full of vigor and no longer has the timid appearance of the past.

Gu An greeted him with a smile.

Wu Jue looked at Ji Xiaoyu, his face showing confusion.

Why is there a different woman next to Brother Gu again?
This is too...

Gu An immediately introduced Ji Xiaoyu to him, and Wu Jue suddenly realized, saying, "You are Ji Xiaoyu, the most talented person in the Ji family in recent years?"

Ji Xiaoyu nodded slightly, and after Gu An introduced him, she wasn't particularly surprised.

Wu Jue is just a famous genius, but the Third Medicine Valley hides many great cultivators, and even the sect leader visits him from time to time.

After exchanging a few polite words with Gu An, Wu Jue left, and they agreed to have a drink together some time later.

But Gu An knew that he would probably miss this agreement again.

He has time, but not martial arts skills; he's either busy cultivating or going out on missions.

A genius like Wu Jue can cultivate for several years at a time.

Gu An watched Wu Jue's retreating figure and sighed to himself, thinking that too much comfort was not a good thing.

The lifespan of Wu Jue has remained unchanged for decades, the same as it was decades ago.

Of course, with his current lifespan of 7,600 years, surpassing the Mahayana realm should not be difficult. Gu An was just a little regretful because he initially thought that Wu Jue could compete with An Hao.

Ji Xiaoyu noticed the regret in his eyes and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Gu An smiled and said, "I feel a little sorry for him. I think he could have achieved even more."

"Isn't his achievement high enough? If An Hao doesn't come back, he will be the number one genius of the Tai Xuan Sect." Ji Xiaoyu asked, puzzled.

"Hahaha, yes."

Gu An said no more and led Ji Xiaoyu up to the Heaven-Mending Platform.

“The Third Miss also mentioned the Sky-Severing Axe back then. You can try it when your cultivation level is higher,” Gu An said casually.

After hearing this, Ji Xiaoyu became interested in the Sky-Severing Axe.

The two made their way through the crowd to the vicinity of the Sky-Severing Axe.

At this moment, Zuo Yijian was cursing because with so many people, some kept stepping into the etiquette area of ​​the Broken Sky Axe.

The so-called etiquette zone was drawn by Zuo Yijian. No one except challengers can step into a certain area, so as not to appear disrespectful to Fu Dao Sword Venerable. His proposal was also approved by Tai Xuan Sect. They must be cautious when dealing with Fu Dao Sword Venerable.

Gu An's gaze fell on one person in the crowd.

【Stealing the Five Elements (Ninth Level of the Celestial Immortal Realm): 0/0/0】

The Mysterious Ghost King!

This guy's got some skills; his method of concealing his aura is quite profound. When Gu An arrived at the Heaven-Mending Platform, he didn't even need to scan the outer city with his divine sense to find him.

Stealing the Five Elements transformed into a scholar, wearing a scholar's hat and holding a folding fan. He was not particularly outstanding in the crowd. He watched others challenge the Sky-Splitting Axe with curiosity, but did not step forward himself.

Gu An glanced at him briefly before moving on, so as not to attract his attention.

He had seen the Five Elements Thief back in the Divine Realm, and his aura was not as weak as it is now. He wondered what this guy's purpose was in daring to come to his territory.

Surely they can't be here to investigate him, right?

Gu An wanted to see what he would do next.

Before long, the alchemy competition in the city was about to begin, and many people came down from the Heaven-Mending Platform to watch the excitement.

The alchemy competition is held in various cities, which is equivalent to regional competitions. The final competition will be held in other places and will be displayed to the disciples and cultivators of each city through formations.

When Zuo Yijian saw Gu An, he immediately greeted him with a smile. His son, Zuo Lin, was a good friend of Gu An, and he had a very good impression of Gu An because of his thoughtfulness in dealing with people.

"Come up and give it a try? Let's test your recent training progress," Zuo Yijian said with a smile.

Gu An looked at Ji Xiaoyu and said, "There's no time like the present. It's not like we can only try once. Go ahead."

Ji Xiaoyu nodded and followed to the front of the Heaven-Severing Axe.

Stealing the Five Elements' gaze fell on Ji Xiaoyu, and suddenly his expression changed. He was clearly a little excited, but he quickly restrained himself.

His change in expression was noticed by Gu An, who pretended not to see it.

Ji Xiaoyu ultimately failed, but no one laughed at him, after all, the Sky-Severing Axe had been there for so many years and no one had ever succeeded.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Zuo Yijian, Gu An left.

Just as the two stepped out of the crowd and into an open space, Qie Wuxing suddenly strode over.

"Wait a minute, you two!"

"Stealing the Five Elements!" Gu An and Ji Xiaoyu stopped and turned to look at him with puzzled expressions.

He stopped in front of the two of them, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "My name is Wu Xing. I come from the sea and can be considered quite knowledgeable. I just saw that this young lady has extraordinary luck. She must be the reincarnation of a person with great fortune. I wonder if you two are interested? If you are, we can find a place to chat."

Upon hearing the word "reincarnation," Ji Xiaoyu frowned.

She subconsciously looked at Gu An, wanting to hear what the Five Elements Theft had to say, but also afraid that Gu An would be displeased.

Thank you for reading and still coming back! Here's a 1000 Qidian Coin reward!
