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

Chapter 81 Xuanwu Shocking Wave Palm, Heavenly Spiritual Root Appears

Gu An was somewhat displeased upon hearing that Li Ya was injured.

This guy is being a bit too rough, and he's even belittling Li Ya now!

Gu An had previously thought that even if Lü Xian defeated Li Ya, he would show mercy out of respect for Li Xuandao. He hadn't expected this guy to be so arrogant, and his tone didn't even show any respect for Li Xuandao.

Yi Liuyun appeared out of thin air in front of Lü Xian, frowning as he asked, "Why did you hurt His Highness? Couldn't you have knocked him unconscious?"

It was obvious that Li Xuandao often mentioned Li Ya in front of him.

"What's wrong? Can't he be hurt? He's not the Crown Prince, and he's far inferior to the Crown Prince." Lu Xian frowned and asked, his tone very dissatisfied.

“Even if he’s not the Crown Prince, he’s still a prince that His Majesty cares about!” Yi Liuyun’s tone was somewhat heavy.

Luo Hun remained silent, and his expression clearly showed his displeasure.

Lu Xian snorted, "You won't allow it? Then beat me up and break my arms and legs!"

At this moment, he saw Gu An walking over and immediately became excited, rushing to greet him.

"Valley Master, I have won the championship of the Hundred Clans Tournament. How about it? Want to cultivate with me?" Lu Xian said, taking out a golden token from his storage bag at his waist. The token read "Champion of the Hidden Dragon Ranking".

Gu An nodded and said, "Then I'll learn."

Upon hearing this, Lü Xian immediately pulled him aside.

Yi Liuyun looked at Luo Hun and asked, "Should we tell His Majesty about this?"

Luo Hun thought for a moment and said, "No need, His Majesty must have sent people to keep an eye on Prince Li Ya."

Yi Liuyun sighed, shook his head, and then disappeared from the spot.

Gu An followed Lü Xian to an open space, where three monkey demons rushed over and stood by, watching curiously.

"What kind of magic do you like?" Lu Xian asked, rubbing his hands together, eager to try it out.

"Anything except swordsmanship is fine."

Gu An replied that this was something that had been agreed upon beforehand, and he did not want to break his promise.

However, one thing is one thing, but the matter of Lü Xian injuring Li Ya cannot be let go.

"Then I'll pass on my palm technique. I have a very powerful palm technique, and I used this move to break Li Ya's arms and legs." Lu Xian said smugly. After speaking, he glared at Yi Liuyun in the distance, clearly saying it to Yi Liuyun.

Gu An nodded and said, "Then teach me, let me see how good I am."

Immediately, Lü Xian began to teach the palm techniques, demonstrating the moves while explaining the mental principles.

Xuanwu Shocking Wave Palm!
The name sounds really powerful!

Gu An looked at it intently.

I'm going to give Lü Xian a good torment.

The sun shone brightly and gradually set in the west.

By evening, Lü Xian said with a look of utter despair, "Are you really unable to remember, or are you deliberately messing with me?"

His voice was so loud that Luo Hun and Yi Liuyun rushed over, fearing he would make a move.

Gu An sighed and said, "I told you long ago that my aptitude and comprehension are very poor, but you didn't believe me and insisted on teaching me. And you were still impatient after I taught you."

"No... even the dumbest person wouldn't be that stupid, right?"

Lu Xian couldn't understand, but Gu An didn't seem to be faking it.

Yi Liuyun said, "I understand that the Valley Master's cultivation is built up with pills. I've told you before not to always advise others, because everyone's situation is different."

Luo Hun reminded him, "His Majesty values ​​his planting skills."

He emphasized the word "value".

Lu Xian took a deep breath and said, "I refuse to believe it, I must teach him!"

Gu An quickly replied, "Next time, I have to go back."

"You are not allowed to leave!"

Upon hearing this, Gu An turned to leave, but Yi Liuyun and the other person quickly stopped Lü Xian.

"Damn it, Valley Master, you must come back! Once you master the Xuanwu Surging Waves Palm, you will have the power to protect yourself, and even contend for destiny, reaching a higher level!"

Lu Xian looked at Gu An's retreating figure and shouted loudly.

Gu An couldn't understand him. He was ruthless to his opponents, yet he liked to teach people how to cultivate.

Are you having such vivid dreams that you're going insane?
As Gu An pondered this, he flew away on his sword, quickly disappearing into the twilight.

In the days that followed, every time Gu An came, Lü Xian would teach him magic. No matter how she taught him, he couldn't learn it. But Lü Xian didn't give up. If he couldn't teach one magic, she would teach him another.

time flies.

The year is coming to an end.

Heavy snow covered the mountains and forests for thousands of miles.

Gu An, dressed in white and wearing a mask, emerged from the forest, followed by two people, An Hao and An Xin.

Even the usually lively An Hao remained silent at this moment.

Gu An stopped and looked at the continuous snow-capped mountains in front of him. He said, "If you go a few hundred miles further, you will reach the outer gate of Tai Xuan Sect. When you do, you will show your spiritual power and they will take you into the city to test your spiritual roots."

An Xin's eyes were red, and she couldn't help but ask, "Master, when can we see each other again?" "I saved you just because I was passing by. This is a fate that shouldn't have happened. Naturally, we can't see each other again, and you mustn't mention me to anyone," Gu An said with his back to them.

He taught An Hao and encouraged him to cultivate without any ulterior motive; it was just a passing fancy.

He doesn't need anything in return from either of them and hopes the relationship ends here.

An Hao suddenly knelt down, and An Xin followed suit, both kowtowing to Gu An.

This time, Gu An did not stop them. He endured their three kowtows, and An Hao's forehead was directly broken and bloody, but he did not feel any pain. He looked at his master's back with a firm gaze.

He would never forget the terrifying experience in the monster cave, or the despair he felt when facing the wolf demon.

“Master, whoever you are, I will always remember your kindness. I will cultivate diligently, become famous throughout the world, and become the most powerful person in the world. If you hear my name then, and if you need me to do anything, please come to me. Your disciple will do anything to help you!”

An Hao said in a deep voice. Although he had just turned fourteen, he had a more resolute look than an adult man.

Gu An waved his sleeve, and the wind and snow swept in from the horizon, causing An Hao and the other to subconsciously raise their arms to shield their faces.

"If you want to help me, you'd better live for a thousand years first!"

Gu An's voice drifted away in the wind, and when the snow subsided, the two looked up but he was nowhere to be seen.

An Xin couldn't help but look at An Hao, waiting for him to make a decision.

He stood up, looked at the horizon, and whispered, "Don't worry, we must not let Master down!"

Anxin nodded heavily, and the brother and sister followed along, as if the swirling snow in front of them was about to engulf them.

Gu Anze returned to Xuan Valley.

He first checked the herbs in Xuan Valley, then went back to his pavilion. Throughout the entire process, his divine sense remained focused on An Hao and the other person.

Although the two were less than three hundred miles apart from the Tai Xuan Sect, he was still somewhat worried, after all, the Tai Xuan Sect was now a mixed bag.

In the following days, no matter where he went or what he did, he would keep an eye on An Hao and the other person with his divine sense until they successfully arrived at the outer gate of the Tai Xuan Sect.

When the young An Hao revealed his cultivation level of the ninth level of Qi Refining, it immediately alarmed the elders of the outer sect city, who personally received them.

The reason for choosing this nearby outer city was mainly because there were many powerful cultivators in the city, so An Hao would not be ambushed or possessed.

……

The new year is approaching, and it's the time of the Spring Festival.

Xuangu.

Gu An, Ye Lan, Zhen Qin, Wu Xin, Xiao Chuan, Tang Yu and others sat around a long table to celebrate the festival, while the other servant disciples sat at another table, each toasting and drinking.

"Have you heard? The outer sect recently recruited a disciple with a Heavenly Spiritual Root. Even the elders in the main city of the sect were alarmed. The person's name is An Hao. He's only fourteen years old this year, but he's almost at the Foundation Establishment stage. It's unbelievable. Compared to him, I feel like I've cultivated to the point of being a pig." Zhen Qin said, clicking her tongue in amazement as she held her wine bowl.

Heavenly Spiritual Root!
Everyone else was drawn in, and Wu Xin couldn't help but ask, "Is it true? The Taicang Dynasty hasn't produced a Heavenly Spirit Root for hundreds of years."

"It's true. Our Enforcement Hall protected him for several days until the sect leader took him away," Ye Lan nodded, appearing more composed than Zhen Qin.

The group discussed the Heavenly Spiritual Root incessantly, and Wu Xin recounted many legends, which made Ye Lan frown.

"How does this kid know so much? Is there something wrong with him?"

Ye Lan looked at Wu Xin and thought to herself that although she had known Wu Xin for many years, people can change.

No, she had to check the records of the Enlightenment Path.

As Gu An listened to everyone talking about An Hao, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

From now on, there will be another exciting thing to look forward to in farming: seeing how far An Hao can grow.

After chatting for a long time, the topic finally shifted to the cultivation world. It is said that a demonic calamity is raging in Changluo, Cangzhou. A demon attempted to assassinate the emperor, but the emperor survived by chance. He was furious and is investigating the matter. Some families have already been executed.

Gu An knew that Li Xuandao was hiding his cultivation at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, so he wasn't worried at all, and instead listened with great interest.

During the Spring Festival, as we bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new, the jubilation lasted until dawn. As the sun rose, Ye Lan and Zhen Qin departed.

Gu An did not leave Xuan Valley immediately, but secretly entered the Eight Scenery Cave Heaven to bring Haolong some food.

Under the vine tree, Haolong was overjoyed to see Gu An arrive. It swam around him quickly. Now it was nearly two zhang long, and its dragon horns had fully grown out, making it look like a real dragon. Its black dragon scales shimmered with a cold light.

"Master, when can you take me out?" Haolong asked pitifully, nuzzling Gu An's face.

Gu An rubbed its head and laughed, "Didn't I tell you, once you're fully grown up, there will be many people eyeing your flesh, just like you eye mutton?"

"How big is big enough? I feel like I'm already very strong. Even you, Master, might not be my match," Haolong said, feeling aggrieved.

Although Gu An had practiced swordsmanship under the tree, he had never shown his strength, and even Hao Long did not know his true strength.

Upon hearing its words, Gu An realized that things couldn't continue like this.

"Let me think of another way," Gu An said thoughtfully.

He decided to find Jiang Qiong to see if Jiang Qiong knew the art of transformation and could turn Haolong into a snake so that it could follow him on his journey.

Upon hearing this, Haolong was overjoyed and even cheered, which made Gu An laugh.

After staying in the Eight Views Cave for an hour, Gu An left. The reason he left so quickly was that he sensed a familiar aura approaching the Mysterious Valley.

Gu An returned to the attic and pretended to read a book.

Not long after, a figure leaped in through the window. Before the figure even landed, the voice rang out: "Junior Brother Gu, guess what treasure I brought back for you?"

Thank you to "Just Seeking Great Freedom" for the 233 Qidian Coins reward!
