Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses

It was said that the Supreme Sect\'s Qi Fortune had been soaring in recent years. He didn\'t believe Qi Fortune could defy the heavens to such an extent that even a randomly picked Servant Disciple could defeat him.

What a joke!

He was the number one genius of the Zhou Family!

Yang Jian waved at him, and this gesture made him even angrier.

The two quickly tangled again. Gu An could see that Zhou Tongyou\'s physique was special, but unfortunately, he met Yang Jian. Yang Jian\'s physique was comparable to an Ancient Treasure Body. According to the Immortal Seeking Taoist, as long as an Ancient Treasure Body grew smoothly, it would undoubtedly become an Immortal King of an era.

No matter how strong Zhou Tongyou\'s aptitude was, it was still below the Immortal Path. Two hundred years ago, there were no legends of the Mahayana Realm on this continent, and even the Mystic Heart Realm was known to only a few cultivators.

Zhou Tongyou\'s Evil Suppressing Golden Body, compared to Yang Jian\'s physique, was as different as heaven and earth and posed no threat.

Their bodies clashed, fists and kicks met, and their attacks were fierce and as fast as a gale.

The Blood Prison Great Saint was attracted over. He stood at the edge of the forest and slowly approached.

In the end, Zhou Tongyou, in his desperation, accidentally used Spiritual Power, forcing Yang Jian back.

Yang Jian steadied himself, shook his right hand, and frowned.

Facing his gaze, Zhou Tongyou\'s face turned red instantly, and he said, "I admit defeat!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian\'s frown immediately relaxed. This was his first sparring match since following Gu An in immortal cultivation. He cared deeply about the outcome; if he lost, wouldn\'t he be letting his master down?

Gu An laughed and said, "This kid has brute strength. How can a cultivator rely solely on Qi? It was an advantage for him. Winning or losing doesn\'t matter. Jian\'er, quickly thank the senior for his guidance."

Yang Jian quickly cupped his hands in salute, sincerely expressing his thanks.

The more sincere he was, the worse Zhou Tongyou\'s expression became.

Zhou Tongyou noticed a sneaky demon bull wandering in the distance and couldn\'t help but ask, "Is that bull yours?"

Gu An thought, "You don\'t want to spar with the bull, do you?"

"Yes, how about it? What do you think of its appearance?" Gu An asked with a proud tone, intending to skip over the sparring incident and save Zhou Tongyou some face.

Zhou Tongyou pouted and said, "It looks decent, but its shape is a bit awkward."

In the distance, the Blood Prison Great Saint widened his eyes. Just as he was about to curse, he was stopped by Gu An\'s glare and had to give up.

Then, Gu An invited Zhou Tongyou to enter the valley for a chat, but he refused, saying he had other matters and had to leave after the spar.

Gu An didn\'t insist, watching him leave.

Yang Jian scratched his head and asked, "Master, did I offend him?"

Gu An looked at Zhou Tongyou\'s back and said, "It\'s alright. Letting him know early that there\'s always someone better is not a bad thing."

Gu An still had a good impression of Zhou Tongyou.

This guy\'s actions may be harsh, but his ability to guide those casual cultivators shows a kind heart.

The conflict with the Zhou Family was hidden and shouldn\'t affect his relationship with Zhou Tongyou.

Zhou Tongyou\'s visit to the Supreme Sect this time was likely an attempt by the Zhou Family to mend their relationship with the sect. There was no deep hatred between them; perhaps they could let things go in the future.

"Master, do you think my battle just now had any problems?" Yang Jian humbly asked for advice.

Gu An didn\'t hold back and began to critique.

The Blood Prison Great Saint approached, looking pitifully at Gu An.

Only after Gu An patted his ox head did his mood improve.

"He\'s just a mortal; what are you fussing about?" Gu An\'s words made the Blood Prison Great Saint smile widely.

...

The Jueshan Sect was a Righteous Path Sect within the Taicang Dynasty. During the previous demon disaster, they had also given their all, maintaining a good relationship with the Supreme Sect. This time, the genius disciples of the Jueshan Sect came to spar with those of the Supreme Sect, causing quite a stir.

Pan An\'s Supreme Immortal Venerable was still very famous within the Supreme Sect. It was no secret that Zhou Tongyou in the book was the same Zhou Tongyou from the Jueshan Sect, so many people paid attention to his performance.

Zhou Tongyou swept through the Supreme Sect\'s disciples, showcasing the brilliance of decades past until he met Wu Jue.

Without suppressing their cultivation levels, relying on their skills alone, Zhou Tongyou couldn\'t defeat Wu Jue, solidifying Wu Jue\'s reputation as a genius.

Wu Jue was a genius nurtured by the Supreme Sect after An Hao, with extremely fast cultivation speed. He had once been a Golden List Genius. Now, having defeated Zhou Tongyou, he dispelled any remaining doubts and made the Supreme Sect\'s disciples more hopeful for him.

On the night of the full moon.

Lv Baitian and Gu An were drinking together in a room.

"Wu Jue sees you as his only brother, Li Ya considers you the most important person, Zhang Buku regards you as his only elder, and An Hao\'s sister apprentices under you. Ji Xiaoyu, from the Ji Family, grew up with you. Even Gu Yu, the son of the Gu Zong, has a good relationship with you. You little brat, and you still say you don\'t have the ambition to be the next Sect Leader?" Lv Baitian glared as he spoke.

He truly admired Gu An, who could always make friends with geniuses and form excellent relationships.

Of course, he could understand why. Gu An\'s genuine nature allowed him to form such good connections. Because of this, he admired Gu An, as it wasn\'t easy to treat everyone genuinely.

People tend to favor the promising. As for him, even if he often reminded himself to treat all disciples equally, he wouldn\'t give a second glance to an average disciple passing by.

Gu An laughed and said, "Heaven has been kind to me. I honestly don\'t want to be the Sect Leader. Nowadays, the Supreme Sect is full of geniuses; do we still lack a leader?"

"No matter how many geniuses, we can\'t choose recklessly. The Sect Leader must command respect."

"Can my current cultivation level command respect?"

"Before I die, I\'ll transfer my cultivation to you. Then, you\'ll directly achieve the Mystic Heart Realm."

"By the time you\'re dying, I\'ll have reincarnated ten times already."

"Oh? So you are retreating to advance, wanting me to transfer my cultivation to you sooner?"

The two began to banter, and Gu An wasn\'t interested in his cultivation.

Would I, a Carefree Primordial Immortal, need your Unification Realm cultivation level?

Just one breath of Spiritual Energy is stronger than all your life\'s cultivation!

That night, after Lv Baitian left, Gu An quietly departed as well.

Yan Qitian had finally arrived!

Underneath the night sky, Yan Qitian rode a cloud, gliding past the full moon, looking like an immortal.

He was pondering how to face Sword Venerable Fudao. Though he was working for him, the thought of facing the Sword Venerable brought him immense pressure.

At that moment, a hand suddenly pressed on Yan Qitian\'s shoulder, causing his heart to stop.

With a roar, the cloud beneath his feet dispersed, and he fell into the forest below. When his feet touched the ground, his heart was in his throat.

His Mana was surprisingly restrained, leaving him unable to move.

What terrifying suppression! Stay connected through m-v l|e\'-NovelBin.net

For the first time, he felt such pressure, and fear began to grow in his heart.

Fortunately, the hand on his shoulder released him, and he quickly turned to see Sword Venerable Fudao, immediately bowing in respect.

"Senior, wasn\'t that a bit too..." Yan Qitian couldn\'t help but say, trying to calm himself.

He suddenly recalled a recent book circulating in the Star Sea Congregations about Sword Venerable Fudao. It mentioned that the Sword Venerable would press on someone\'s shoulder before killing them. He thought it was just Xuan Tianyi\'s whimsicality, but it turned out to be true.

Wait!

Could Sword Venerable Fudao be planning to kill him?

Dispose of him after use?

Yan Qitian\'s expression changed drastically as he trembled, completely losing the demeanor of a Loose Immortal and second rank on the Heavenly List.

As the saying goes: The higher you stand, the more you fear. Being suppressed so easily by Sword Venerable Fudao, he shuddered at the thought of Fudao\'s unimaginable cultivation level. How could he not be terrified?

Gu An spoke, "Where is it?"

Yan Qitian hurriedly took out a scroll from his storage ring, offering it with both hands, nervously replying, "This is collected through the power of my family and master. Though not entirely clear, it should give a general understanding of the Seven Stars Spirit Realm\'s strength."

Gu An made a gesture, and the scroll entered his hand. His Divine Sense penetrated it, dispelling all the restrictions within.

Yan Qitian nervously stood aside, fearing that Sword Venerable Fudao might suddenly decide to kill him.

He didn\'t dare to flee, as it would be useless. It was better to try to make a good impression.

After a while, Gu An looked at him and said, "You did well. Our transaction hasn\'t been leaked, right?"

Yan Qitian quickly replied, "Only my master knows. I mentioned a mysterious senior with a grudge against the Seven Stars Spirit Realm wanting information. My master didn\'t press further. Except for me, no one knows it\'s you."

Gu An nodded.

Yan Qitian added, "Senior, dealing with the Seven Stars Spirit Realm can\'t be done rashly. If you are willing, why not join forces with our Star Sea Congregations? From the information I\'ve gathered, the Cave Master of One Star Cave is a Heaven and Earth Flying Immortal who achieved it fifty thousand years ago. Even our Sect Hierarch isn\'t confident in defeating him."

"Heaven and Earth Flying Immortal, are they strong?"

Gu An\'s question left Yan Qitian speechless.

Are they strong?

Yan Qitian opened his mouth, suddenly realizing something.

Could it be that the other party wasn\'t unaware of the Heaven and Earth Flying Immortal Realm but simply didn\'t fear any Heaven and Earth Flying Immortal?

His gaze changed instantly. Looking at Gu An, he felt an urge to kneel on the spot.

"You did well. Tonight\'s conversation must not be mentioned to anyone. If you dare to speak of it, no matter where you hide, I will find you, and no one can stop me."

Gu An suddenly spoke, scaring Yan Qitian, who immediately bent over and promised.

After he finished speaking, Gu An stepped up to him and placed two fingers on his forehead, making him stiffen and his eyes go vacant.

...

Under the moonlit night, in a courtyard.

Ji Xiaoyu was meditating in a pavilion, continuously casting spells, and cultivating some sort of cultivation technique.

A figure walked in from the yard, a middle-aged man in a large robe with a stern countenance.

He stopped before the pavilion, gazing at Ji Xiaoyu and sighing, "Xiaoyu, have you still not made up your mind?"

Ji Xiaoyu did not respond.

"The Primordial Daoist Talisman truly is extraordinary, but our Ji Family can\'t protect it. Moreover, now that the Ji Family has allied with the Seven Stars Spirit Realm, we can only choose to trust them," the middle-aged man said earnestly.

Ji Xiaoyu opened her eyes and looked at him calmly, her gaze making him feel uneasy.
