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

Chapter 475 Xu Ling's Shock

"Ling'er!"

A hysterical roar rang out as Chen Luo shoved aside the onlookers. He looked at the blood-soaked ground, trembling all over, his face filled with despair.

The others, realizing what had happened, all backed away in fright.

"alert!"

A middle-aged cultivator shouted in a deep voice, and he subconsciously looked at Yang Jian.

Only the Holy King could have the means to kill Xu Ling right in front of them.

Yang Jian looked up and quickly extended his divine sense, but he did not detect any suspicious aura.

Chen Luo knelt before the blood, unable to accept the reality before him. Just moments before, he had felt like the happiest person in the world, but now he felt like he had fallen into hell.

Xiao Chuan in Yang Jian's arms seemed to sense something and began to wail loudly, but Chen Luo could no longer care about him.

The head of the Chen family approached Yang Jian, frowning as he asked, "Holy King, what's going on?"

Although he didn't like Xu Ling, after all she was a descendant of the Xu family, if word got out that Xu Ling died in front of them, what would become of the Chen family's reputation?

“I don’t know either, it’s really strange…” Yang Jian replied, then handed Xiao Chuan to the Chen family head and disappeared from the spot.

The other members of the Chen family, regaining their senses, immediately left the main hall and began to stand guard.

Chen Luo suddenly looked up at the head of the Chen family and cried out excitedly, "Father, save Ling'er! Save her!"

The head of the Chen family took a deep breath and said, "Her soul has been scattered; there's no way to save her..."

He was also filled with fear. If it wasn't the Holy King who did it, then what was going on?

Xu Ling's death was so bizarre that it not only shocked Chen Luo, but also frightened everyone else.

At this moment, the Chen family patriarch was most afraid that Chen Luo would also meet with misfortune, but he was helpless. He didn't even dare to touch Chen Luo, fearing that he would also suffer.

Gu An, who was far away at the Tai Xuan Sect, also witnessed this scene. Everything happened too fast. In an instant, he captured Xu Ling's soul and used his own power of cause and effect to protect Xu Ling's soul, preventing her from being ravaged by the mysterious power of cause and effect.

If that mysterious being could kill Xu Ling, wouldn't he also be able to kill others?
This was Gu An's biggest worry, so he chose to hide Xu Ling's soul. He couldn't keep an eye on Xu Ling all the time.

Fortunately, nothing like that happened again; only Xu Ling died.

Yang Jian returned to the Chen residence and gathered with the Chen family to discuss Xu Ling's death. Suddenly, Chen Luo severed his meridians and destroyed his golden core, attempting to disperse his soul. Yang Jian immediately stopped him, but even so, Chen Luo became a cripple.

Seeing this, Gu An also felt a bit emotional.

His intervention allowed Chen Luo and Xu Ling to survive, but it brought them another kind of misfortune.

He was suddenly confused. If someone was plotting against him, why target Xu Ling instead of the people around him?

Many of the people he cared about were below the Mahayana realm in terms of cultivation.

Could it be that being wants Xiao Chuan to go down a path of no return, and then lure Gu An away from this universe?

While protecting Xu Ling's soul, Gu An could sense the power of that causal force. Although it was not as strong as his, he could be certain that this causal force came from another universe. If it had not crossed universes, it would be difficult to judge which was stronger.

Gu An sat up and landed on the tree. He looked at Zhu Xi and said, "You continue your cultivation. I have something to do."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu An vanished from the spot.

He stepped into the Hidden Spirit Palace deep in the sea.

The deep-sea dragon carp was cultivating and did not sense Gu An's presence.

Gu An raised his right hand, released Xu Ling's soul, and then used the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to reshape her physical body.

Xu Ling has a long lifespan. As long as her lifespan hasn't ended, she can reunite with her physical body. This is not difficult for Gu An. What is difficult is overcoming the time limit.

Xu Ling's physical body was restored, along with her clothes, just like she looked before her death.

The deep-sea dragon carp sensed her breathing, opened its eyes, and saw its master appear. It was overjoyed and stood up to greet him.

Xu Ling felt as if she had just woken from a nightmare. She sat on the ground, panting heavily and covered in sweat. She looked up at Gu An, who was as handsome as a god in a painting, and her eyes were filled with fear.

"You don't need to worry, I won't harm you, but you can't go back. There is a powerful being beyond the ninth level of the Immortal Path who wants to harm your son, so he killed you. From now on, you can cultivate here. After a while, I will bring your husband here to manage the Medicine Valley for me. One day, the three of you will be reunited."

Gu An left after saying these words and disappeared. Xu Ling, being a Mahayana cultivator, was able to accept reality quickly.

The clone inside the Hidden Spirit Palace has been replaced and is now at the cultivation level of a Luo Tian Zi Zai Xian. Here, the causal power from outside the universe has difficulty harming Xu Ling, and cannot even detect where Xu Ling is.

Xu Ling was stunned after hearing Gu An's words, her eyes glazed over.

The deep-sea dragon carp stood to the side, scratching its head, unsure how to respond. It too was pondering Gu An's words. A powerful being surpassing the ninth level of the Immortal Path?

And who is this woman's son?

The Hidden Spirit Palace fell silent.

for a long time.

Xu Ling took a deep breath, stood up, bowed to the Deep Sea Dragon Carp, and asked, "My name is Xu Ling. May I ask how you are addressed, young lady? Could you please introduce this place and the senior I just met?"

She was shocked. How high must the cultivation level be for a powerful person who could talk about surpassing the ninth level of the Immortal Path?
girl?

Upon hearing this, the Deep Sea Dragon Carp smiled. His smile was so gentle that Xu Ling couldn't help but feel a sense of closeness to him.

……

late at night.

Chen Luo, his hair disheveled, sat in a chair with a blank stare in his eyes. His mother held Xiao Chuan and kept trying to persuade him, hoping he could see things clearly, but he wouldn't listen at all.

Just then, Yang Jian walked into the house. He looked at Chen Luo and said, "Your wife still has a chance to live."

Upon hearing this, Chen Luo abruptly looked up, rushed towards Yang Jian, grabbed his arms, and pressed, "Really? What should I do? What do you need me to do in return?"

Yang Jian remained calm and said, "Go to the Tai Xuan Sect on the Tai Cang Continent, and you will know what to do."

Upon hearing this, Chen Luo immediately let go and ran straight out the door.

Chen Luo's mother wanted to call him, but Yang Jian stopped her. Yang Jian said meaningfully, "He has lost all his cultivation now, which is a good opportunity to temper him. Let him go to Tai Xuan Sect on his own. You should not help him."

Chen Luo's mother hesitated and asked, "Is it the Tai Xuan Sect where the Sword Master Fu Dao resides?"

Yang Jian nodded slightly, and Chen Luo's mother immediately breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes even showing a hint of surprise.

She had naturally heard of the name of the Sword Master Fudao; he was a saint who saved all living beings, and such a being could not possibly scheme against her son.

She couldn't help but look down at her grandson in her arms, wondering to herself, "My dear grandson, who exactly are you, that even the Sword Master Fudao wants to protect you?"

Those who cultivate immortality believe in reincarnation, and knowing that her grandson had a past life, she did not reject him; on the contrary, she liked him even more.

Perhaps this grandson can bring prosperity to the Chen family.

……

As winter arrives, snow falls in abundance.

Gu An stood on the balcony watching the snow. Ever since Xu Ling met with misfortune, he had been keeping a close eye on Xiao Chuan. Fortunately, the force of cause and effect had not caused any more trouble.

But in reality, this behind-the-scenes figure succeeded; he ensured that Xiaochuan remained without his parents' company.

This incident gave Gu An an idea.

The power of cause and effect can even transcend the universe.

He decided to focus on studying the power of cause and effect to enhance his understanding of the causal path.

In previous years, he was trying to comprehend different fundamental principles, but now he thinks it might have been better to first develop one principle to its fullest potential.

He saw Chen Luo alone on a boat. In the boundless ocean, Chen Luo's small boat was like a fallen leaf in the vast sea, which could be submerged at any moment.

Although Gu An wanted to temper Chen Luo's character, he didn't really let Chen Luo face things alone, since Chen Luo had no cultivation.

Along the way, Gu An has helped Chen Luo solve many troubles that he could not handle. The rest of the journey can only rely on his willpower.

Yang Jian had already left the Chen family. Before leaving, the head of the Chen family hoped that Yang Jian could be given a name. Yang Jian hesitated a lot, but fortunately he received a telepathic message from his master.

Chen Chuan!

This is Xiao Chuan's name in this life. It's very ordinary, but the fact that it came from Yang Jian's mouth gave the Chen family more hope.

The Holy King hopes that this child will be as self-reliant and unyielding as mountains and rivers.
Xu Ling stayed in the Hidden Spirit Palace and got along very well with the Deep Sea Dragon Carp, referring to herself as a sister. She did not realize that the Deep Sea Dragon Carp was a male demon, after all, the Deep Sea Dragon Carp's cultivation was higher than hers.

The days became calm again.

Xiao Chuan's cause and effect did not bother Gu An; on the contrary, it gave him a sense of the fun of a game.

Once he's strong enough, he'll definitely expose the person behind it all.

He even considered using the power of cause and effect to annihilate the other party across the universe in the future.
