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

Chapter 432 I can’t help myself
According to Gu An's calculations, Lü Baitian will focus on cultivating Xu Jie in the future, grooming him to be the next sect leader, and even betrothing the daughter of the Lü family head to Xu Jie, treating him as his own son.

Xu Jie did not disappoint Lü Baitian; his growth rate was no less than An Hao's, and he also regarded An Hao as his goal.

Five hundred years later, An Hao returned. Xu Jie, overestimating his abilities, challenged An Hao. Even though An Hao suppressed his cultivation, he still easily defeated him. After that, Xu Jie's personality changed drastically, and he became paranoid.

He trained even harder, making becoming stronger his top priority.

He even schemed to take advantage of Lü Baitian's Fate-Defying Divine Skill, and eventually succeeded in persuading Lü Baitian to pass on the skill to him.

After the transfer of power, Lü Baitian became a cripple and returned to the Lü family. As a result, the Lü family was attacked by Xu Jie's enemies, and Lü Baitian died in the chaos.

Although Gu An could see the future, he was not flustered because he had calculated that it would happen without his interference.

To deduce cause and effect, one must set aside oneself to make more accurate calculations. This is why many people who know their destiny are unwilling to enter the world, because they cannot predict what choices they will make in the future, so they try not to change the fate of heaven and earth.

Gu An did not feel resentment towards Xu Jie because of this; he was more moved by their fates.

Lu Baitian's choice of Xu Jie brought him disaster, which was not Xu Jie's intention to harm him; it was simply a twist of fate.

"A single thought can make you a demon, or a single thought can make you an immortal, but who can know whether their thought is right or wrong?"

Gu An murmured to himself, expressing his heartfelt feelings.

The Blood Prison Great Sage, who was lying downstairs, looked up and pondered his master's words.

Is Lu Baitian going to become a demon?
That's fantastic!
Blood Prison Great Sage had no goodwill towards Lü Baitian. Knowing that Lü Baitian might be in trouble, he would only gloat and even hope that Lü Baitian would disappoint Gu An.

Gu An watched for a while, then turned and went inside.

As night fell, the lights of the Third Medicine Valley lit up one after another, revealing the bustling life of the people.

……

Twenty years later.

Inside the Third Medicine Valley, the sun shone brightly, birds hovered above the valley, and disciples could be seen cultivating everywhere. In the distance, disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect rode demonic birds flying by.

Gu An lay under the Xuanqing tree, his hands behind his head, checking his attribute panel.

Name: Gu An

Lifespan: 899/1,393,608,114

[Physique: Primordial Golden Body]

[Cultivation Level: Perfected Profound Origin Free and Easy Immortal Realm]

……

It has a lifespan of nearly 1.4 billion years, and will soon be 900 years old.

Looking at his age, Gu An sighed inwardly, realizing how old he had become without even realizing it.

But he still has a youthful mindset and can still get along well with some of his younger disciples.

The plump white rat, as fat as a water buffalo, came over and rubbed its head against his waist, looking ingratiating.

Gu An ignored it, and it followed him around to his front and whispered, "Master."

It uttered a childlike, innocent voice, indistinguishable between male and female.

Last year, the White Spirit Rat was just able to speak human language, and its growth made the Third Medicine Valley lively. Almost every disciple who entered the valley was bullied by it. Its presence in the Third Medicine Valley was extremely strong, and the disciples kept their distance from it. After all, it was their master's pet, and they couldn't fight back when bullied by it.

"Let the fart go."

Gu An said impatiently, he was getting angry just looking at the white spirit rat.

This guy has been begging him to raise a bunch of rabbit demons, and they have to be female, which he finds quite distasteful.

How could someone with such an otherworldly and ethereal demeanor raise such a demonic pet?

Gu An then thought of Tian Yao'er and the other two girls, as well as the deep-sea dragon carp, all of whom seemed somewhat abnormal.

On the contrary, the Great Sage of Blood Prison is very down-to-earth.

Hmm, we'll focus on cultivating the Blood Prison Great Sage from now on!
"Master, I had a dream before that I was practicing. I still remember it. It was a set of fist techniques. Would you like to take a look?"

The white spirit rat spoke softly, its eyes filled with excitement. Because it was too fat, it did not have the cunning look of a rat demon; instead, it appeared rather simple-minded.

Gu An sat up and said, "I want to see what kind of boxing technique you can comprehend."

The White Spirit Rat meditates under the Xuanqing Tree year-round, and eats only the finest natural treasures; its lifespan continues to increase.

In a sense, this is also a kind of talent. Even if you stay under the Xuanqing Tree, not everyone can extend their lifespan to its limit.

The white mouse immediately jumped to the side, then stood up, supporting its body with its two plump hind legs.

Under Gu An's watchful gaze, the white spirit rat began to practice its boxing.

When this guy started punching, the force of his punches sent gusts of wind through the grass, causing nearby disciples to turn their heads to look.

Gu An's expression was strange. The White Spirit Rat's boxing skills weren't particularly impressive, clearly showing traces of imitating Long Qing's style, but for a mountain of flesh to throw punches was quite bizarre. While it might seem comical, its body moved with considerable rhythm, and each punch was precise and controlled.

After the white rat finished its set of boxing techniques, it turned to look at Gu An with an expectant expression.

Gu An pondered for a moment, then said seriously, "Not bad, you can challenge Qing'er now."

Upon hearing this, the white spirit mouse was overjoyed and immediately took its leave of Gu An.

It's going to challenge Long Qing!
After sending the white mouse away, Gu An lay back down to enjoy his leisure time.

Doing nothing and just lying there can be quite interesting.

But this peaceful life is about to be shattered.

The God Emperor of Annihilation, who has been traveling through the mortal realm, has arrived at the Tai Xuan Gate. Judging from his pace, he will enter the Third Medicine Valley sooner or later.

When the God Emperor of Annihilation goes to a crowded place, he will transform into the appearance of a cultivator. This was also the case when he came to the Tai Xuan Sect. He had a thousand faces and no one could remember the face he transformed into.

Time continues to pass.

An hour later.

A figure entered the Third Medicine Valley. It was a man in blue robes with an ordinary appearance and no conspicuous magical artifacts.

It was none other than the God Emperor of Annihilation!

As he walked into the Third Medicine Valley, he looked around as if searching for something.

A disciple came to greet him and asked what he wanted. The Medicine Valley disciple was very gentle and did not put on airs.

The God Emperor of Annihilation spoke up: "I've come to find Ji Xiaoyu."

Ji Xiaoyu?
The Medicine Valley disciple was stunned for a moment, then remembered and said, "Senior Ji has been in seclusion for many years and has never been seen. I have been in Medicine Valley for many years and have never seen her either, I..."

"It's alright, I'll just wander around for a bit. Your Medicine Valley should allow that, right?"

"Of course, please feel free to do as you please. If you need anything, you can contact me."

"Well, I have a heart."

The God Emperor of Annihilation responded, and the disciples of Medicine Valley bowed and left.

Then, the God Emperor of Annihilation continued forward. When he passed the dojo, he turned his head to look at it, but only glanced at it before looking away. He did not stop walking.

Two female disciples walked towards him, one of whom was You Yingying.

"I told you long ago that the Evergreen Heavenly Grass needs to be kept under constant watch, but you didn't listen. Do you know how many high-grade spirit stones are equivalent to losing just one grass?"

You Yingying complained, while the woman next to her looked so aggrieved that she was about to cry, her lips trembling.

Just as the God Emperor of Annihilation was about to pass by You Yingying, he suddenly said, "It's truly remarkable that a person on the verge of death has survived until now."

Upon hearing this, You Yingying stopped and looked at the God Emperor of Annihilation with suspicion.

She knew she was the reincarnation of a demon, and with Gu An's help over the years, her cultivation had been steadily increasing. Although she couldn't be considered a genius, at least she hadn't reached the end of her lifespan yet.

Upon hearing the words of the God Emperor of Annihilation, You Yingying instinctively felt flustered.

"Are you talking about me?" You Yingying asked, staring at the God Emperor of Annihilation.

The God Emperor of Annihilation did not stop and continued forward, leaving behind a message that puzzled You Yingying: "Cherish the present moment, for there will be times when you have no choice in what you do."

When you are not in control of your own destiny?

You Yingying frowned, her mood immediately souring.

The God Emperor of Annihilation arrived at Gu An's pavilion. The Great Sage of Blood Prison looked up at him with a strange expression.

"Emperor of Reincarnation, why don't you show yourself?"

The God Emperor of Annihilation spoke, but Shenxinzi, who was eavesdropping in the distance, could not hear these words.

After hearing what the God Emperor of Annihilation said to You Yingying, Shen Xinzi became curious and confused about him. Unfortunately, the God Emperor of Annihilation did not allow him to continue eavesdropping.

Emperor of Reincarnation?

Blood Prison Great Sage stood up and looked warily at the Annihilation God Emperor.

The God Emperor of Annihilation glanced at him and said, "Future Great Sage, sit down. Just pretend you didn't see or hear anything."

The future Great Sage?
Blood Prison Great Sage was secretly alarmed. Had he seen through my future identity?

This person is truly a master!
Excellent taste!

The Great Sage of Blood Prison was in high spirits and began to fantasize about how powerful he would be in the future.

He wasn't afraid of the God Emperor of Annihilation causing trouble; his master was in the valley, probably watching the show.
