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

Chapter 375 The Book of the Reincarnation Dao Emperor
Hearing Jiang Qiong's words, Gu An frowned and sighed, "How can I persuade him? Su Han was indeed forced to his death by the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower."

Back then, Su Han was being hunted down and had no choice but to follow the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower. The Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower taught him the Divine Art of Reversing Fate. Before he died, he passed on his cultivation to Zhen Qin, helping her to be reborn. So many years have passed, but Zhen Qin still holds a grudge in her heart.

Gu An had long severed his master-disciple relationship with Su Han and had even saved Su Han's life, so he owed Su Han nothing and therefore had no intention of seeking revenge for Su Han.

Moreover, the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower has already pledged allegiance to him. If it weren't for his arrangement, how could the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower have helped Jiang Qiong establish the Gathering Flower Sect?

Gu An will not help Zhen Qin kill the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower, but he will ensure her survival.

It might be unfair to the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower, but there's nothing that can be done. In Gu An's heart, Zhen Qin is definitely more important than the Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower.

Of his first batch of disciples from the Medicine Valley, only Zhen Qin is still alive. Zhen Qin is very filial to him, so how could he not dote on her?

Jiang Qiong frowned and said, "The Ghost Mother of the Ephemeral Flower is now the Vice Sect Master of the Gathering Flower Sect. There's no way I can deal with her."

"No need. Everyone has their own grudges. You've already saved Zhen Qin's life, that's enough. Thank you."

Gu An said earnestly, raising his hand to bow to Jiang Qiong.

Jiang Qiong snorted, "What are you thanking me for? Your business is my business. I also quite like that girl Zhen Qin. When I'm strong enough, I'll help her kill the Ephemeral Flower Demon Mother."

Gu An was taken aback and asked, "Do you have a grudge against me?"

“We have no grudge, but if I had to choose between you and her, I would definitely choose you. But that’s all in the future, we’ll talk about it when I have the ability,” Jiang Qiong said, shaking her head.

Then, she talked about the insights she gained in the Nine Abyss Realm.

Since her journey to the Nine Abyss Realm, she has gained many insights into cultivation, particularly regarding deduction.

She can now glimpse the causes and effects of mortals, and thus calculate their fates.

She wondered if Gu An had gained anything.

Gu An answered that there were such opportunities, but not as many as her own, which left her slightly disappointed.

As night fell, Jiang Qiong led Gu An to the Eight Views Cave.

"Why do you have to go to the Eight Views Cave? Just stay at my Third Medicine Valley. Now you are a righteous leader and have established an alliance with the Tai Xuan Sect. They won't stop you from entering the Tai Xuan Sect."

Walking through the woods, Gu An couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Qiong held his right wrist and said without turning her head, "Bajing Cave is our home."

"What kind of home do you want? You want to live in a coffin?"

Hearing Gu An's words, Jiang Qiong couldn't help but turn around and glare at him.

In the end, Gu An couldn't resist Jiang Qiong's insistence and was pulled into the Eight Views Cave Heaven by her.

It wasn't until noon the next day that Gu An returned to the Third Medicine Valley.

He had just arrived at the foot of his attic when Ji Xiaoyu came out of the room.

Forty years ago, Ji Xiaoyu returned. Her understanding of the Dao of Cause and Effect far surpassed that of An Xin, Long Qing, Ye Lan, and others. Gu An could sense that the power of cause and effect within her was growing stronger day by day.

"Who were you fooling around with last night?" Ji Xiaoyu stared at Gu An and asked, her voice somewhat cold.

Gu An looked at her and replied, "I met an old friend. When I met her, you weren't even born yet. If it weren't for her guidance, I wouldn't be where I am today."

This is no joke; Jiang Qiong taught him so much.

Among them, the Shadow Demon Art is the most important. With Gu An's improvement, this art can now isolate cause and effect.

Upon reaching the Immortal Realm, one will inevitably begin to delve into the art of deduction. Upon reaching the Free and Unfettered Immortal Realm, one will begin to study the Dao of Cause and Effect. Without Jiang Qiong's Demon Shadow Divine Art, Gu An's true cultivation level might have been discovered long ago.

Upon hearing his words, Ji Xiaoyu's expression softened. She was about to continue speaking when he spoke first.

"Focus on cultivating immortality and don't concern yourself with the romantic relationships of mortals."

After saying that, Gu An quickly went upstairs.

Ji Xiaoyu watched him go upstairs, her brows furrowed.

After Gu An entered the house, he was about to close the door when Ji Xiaoyu suddenly appeared out of nowhere, placing one hand on the door. "What are you doing?" Gu An frowned at Ji Xiaoyu, his face showing fear.

Ji Xiaoyu remained expressionless, took a step forward, and startled him into retreating.

boom!
After Ji Xiaoyu entered the room, the door slammed shut.

Gu An retreated all the way to the table, looking at Ji Xiaoyu's expressionless face with unease.

What does this woman want to do?
Should we beat him up, or should we do what Jiang Qiong did?
Gu An felt a headache coming on just thinking about the commotion last night.

Ugh!
Why are so many women interested in him?
Even if he refuses, it won't work.

Ji Xiaoyu walked up to him and said, "Over the years, I have studied the Dao of Cause and Effect and discovered that your disciple Long Qing has extraordinary karma. Where did you bring him from? Do you know his true identity?"

Upon hearing this, Gu An asked in astonishment, "Extraordinary cause and effect? ​​What do you mean? What happened to him? Is he a reincarnation of a celestial demon?"

Ji Xiaoyu scrutinized Gu An's expression and felt that he didn't seem to be lying.

Her expression softened, and she said, "Whether he is a demon or not is still uncertain. If you keep him, he will surely bring you trouble. Otherwise, hand him over to me, or let Shenxinzi take him to the Bitter Sea Buddhist Sect."

“That’s not a good idea. He grew up in the Third Medicine Valley. How could I possibly drive him away?” Gu An frowned.

Ji Xiaoyu took a deep breath and said, "His bloodline is not simple. I can feel that my innate Dao talisman is very wary of his karma and unwilling to get involved. I'm not joking. Don't you hope for a peaceful life forever?"

Gu An thought to himself, "He is my descendant from one of my past lives, so his bloodline is naturally extraordinary!"
Gu An asked, "Did that senior also know this?"

He was referring to the Sun, Moon, and Underworld Emperors.

The man was still recovering from his injuries inside the house and did not eavesdrop on their conversation.

"Perhaps," Ji Xiaoyu replied, her expression somewhat impatient, whether because of Long Qing or Jiang Qiong was unclear.

Gu An gripped the Fate-Determining Pen tightly in his hand. He hesitated for a moment and said, "No, I can't abandon him. He treats me like a father. How can I drive him away? Even if there is a great karmic debt, so what? Perhaps when I die, he will not face his karmic tribulation."

Looking at Gu An's determined face, Ji Xiaoyu was annoyed. Why was this person so stubborn?
"What if he brings disaster to the entire Medicine Valley, or even the Tai Xuan Sect?" Ji Xiaoyu asked, suppressing his anger.

Gu An said seriously, "Your karma is not simple either. If you encounter trouble, should I stay away from you to avoid suspicion?"

"Impossible! I can't do it! I, Gu An, am not that kind of person!"

His words were firm and resolute, which softened Ji Xiaoyu's expression.

Sure enough, women will be women; they seize the opportunity to make a fuss.

Gu An was certain that Ji Xiaoyu was jealous of Jiang Qiong.

Ji Xiaoyu snorted, "You just like saying nice things. If that day ever comes, I bet you'll run away faster than anyone else."

Gu An clutched his chest, feigning heartache, and said, "You actually think of me like that..."

Ji Xiaoyu couldn't help but chuckle and rolled her eyes at him. She walked to Gu An's side, a book in her hand, and placed it on the table.

Gu An stared intently.

There is only one word on it.

dragon!
Ji Xiaoyu introduced, "This is a book I dreamed about in my previous life. The Reincarnation Dao Emperor often held it in his hands. The book records the evolution of a family. Don't you like reading this kind of book? Here, take a look, but don't spread it around."

Gu An couldn't help but ask, "Dragon? Could it be related to Long Qing?"

Ji Xiaoyu didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

When she closed the door, she didn't use as much force; she closed it gently.

Happy National Day!
