Go to become a god, let me marry into the sect

#347 - Why do you always love to use magic?

Gu An left.

He had no intention of lingering.

His reason for giving the Yuan Spirit Pill was to gain the upper hand.

If the other party agreed to two pills, he could give one first, and the second after the task was completed.

Of course, the other party could also gamble on whether he would raise the price.

The answer was obvious.

Since he increased the offer by one pill as soon as he opened his mouth, the other party probably thought he would continue to add more.

Unfortunately, he wasn't that generous.

Based on the two pills, he directly cut it in half.

Thus, it was now the other party who had to struggle.

Moreover, it was no longer him seeking help from the other party, but the other way around.

As long as the other party came, he would completely seize the initiative.

Sometimes, one really shouldn't be blindly greedy.

Greed is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant.

Gu An did not return to his residence but went to the forest to chop wood.

Although a warm current only appeared every few days, it was already very good for a normal cultivator.

Especially after learning the Sun Moon Heart Furnace technique, he found himself full of inexhaustible energy.

His original cultivation technique was already powerful, capable of suppressing most opponents of the same rank, and it was further enhanced by the Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper combat technique.

The combination of the two was basically invincible among those of the same rank.

Now, with the addition of the Sun Moon Heart Furnace, his strength would almost double after mastering it.

Under such circumstances, if he were to lose to some genius of the same rank one day,

how embarrassing would that be?

Therefore, he had to be diligent.

Of course, he also had to avoid fighting opponents of the same rank.

As long as he didn't fight, he would be invincible.

After dawn, Gu An began to prepare to hand in resources.

This time, he planned to control his ranking between second and third.

Next month, third or fourth.

Then, fix it at fourth or fifth.

While he was still thinking about how to hand in the resources,

Pang Wen came and informed him about the holiday.

It had been confirmed.

Chen Changfeng was released.

Ye Xiu was also released.

Zhao Qingshan was still useful, so he would be kept for now.

But he should also be released next month.

The Moon Frost Jade Green Yao Fairy was also scheduled for next month.

As for the others, without any merit, there would be no holiday for them.

Gu An sighed inwardly, finally, there was some good news.

The so-called holiday was just a pretext.

It was meant to release people.

As long as they returned late, it could be said that they had already been released, because they didn't return on time.

The more Gu An thought about it, the more he admired himself.

In this way, he could completely get rid of these people.

Of course, he still firmly believed that once people had freedom, they would not return.

Perhaps they could endure imprisonment before, but after seeing freedom and happiness again, they would no longer be able to endure imprisonment.

This was human nature.

Before seeing the beauty, they would feel that the present was already good enough, and that hard work would allow them to live well.

But one day, when they saw the light and glimpsed the beauty, how could they go back?

That would be a hopeless darkness for them.

“Team leader, the people from the Joyful Union Sect might come again tomorrow.” Pang Wen looked at Gu An and said seriously.

Gu An looked at the person in front of him and said, “Junior brother, is there anything else you want to say?”

Pang Wen hesitated for a moment and said, “The people from the Joyful Union Sect are good at sowing discord.”

Gu An looked at him without speaking.

Pang Wen lowered his head, not daring to meet his gaze.

Gu An understood what he meant.

This wasn't the first time.

However, he didn't expose it, but instead said, “How has Junior Sister Shu Ci been performing recently?”

Pang Wen immediately said, “Junior Sister Shu Ci has been working diligently. Most of the tasks of the second team are suggested by Junior Sister, and we cooperate.

Having just become members of the Demonic Sect, Junior Sister is guiding us, making it easier to adapt to the identity of a Demonic Sect disciple than others.”

After that, Pang Wen said a lot more, in great detail.

Gu An was quite impressed that this junior brother observed people so carefully.

However, Junior Sister Shu Ci was indeed different.

Before, she would still use her clothes to do something in front of him.

Now, her clothes were normal, and her gestures no longer had the frivolity of before.

She was somewhat like a lady from a respectable family.

She wouldn't cause him trouble.

As for why this was so, Gu An didn't know.

However, he understood Pang Wen's concerns.

After the other party finished speaking, Gu An said, “I understand. When the people from the Joyful Union Sect come tomorrow, inform me.

Also, cultivate well. While Senior Zhao Qingshan is here, ask him for guidance.

Unimportant matters can be put aside.

Take the spells back as well. There are some annotations I wrote inside. Take a good look at them.”

Gu An had read all these spells and techniques.

He had no intention of cultivating them.

For him now, they weren't strong enough.

Of course, some were useful and could be learned for fun.

As for looking at them every time, it was to train his understanding of spells.

He could discern the true from the false.

The more he understood, the faster he would cultivate spells in the future, and he would be able to see some unreasonable places and improve them, or judge their authenticity.

When he understood enough, he would let them create fake spells.

As long as he could be deceived, they could leave.

He would use this to train himself.

As for earning resources, he felt it was enough for those people to cultivate.

He still had a lot of spirit stones, so there was no need to extract resources from the First Institute for the time being.

After the person left, Gu An continued to study how to submit resources.

In the evening.

Suddenly, someone approached his residence.

Gu An glanced outside and knew who had come.

He wasn't in a hurry to speak, he would wait for the other party to speak first.

He thought he would have to wait a few days, but he didn't expect the other party to be so impatient.

Soon, a voice came from outside.

It was He Wenxiu.

Gu An unhurriedly let the person in.

At this time, He Wenxiu lowered his head and respectfully bowed, “Institute Head Gu.”

“Junior brother, have you thought it over?” Gu An asked.

Although the other party's cultivation was higher than his, Gu An didn't call him senior brother.

If they really fought, he would have a certain advantage.

“I wonder what Institute Head needs me to do?” He Wenxiu asked.

After Gu An left before, he was very anxious inside.

He knew that those were Yuan Spirit Pills, and buying one would bankrupt him.

The other party was going to give two, and he refused.

In the end, it fell back to one, which made him extremely unwilling.

He even wanted to delay it for a few more days, waiting for the other party to come again, and as long as he mentioned two pills again, he would agree.

But:

He just wanted to fight for more benefits at that time, and the benefits were halved.

If he continued to delay, would he not even have one pill?

After all, his value didn't seem high no matter how he looked at it.

He had so many Yuan Spirit Pills, who couldn't he find?

Therefore, he came impatiently.

He didn't want to miss it again.

Gu An looked at the person in front of him, and then said, “What is their purpose in sending you here?”

“This:

...” He Wenxiu hesitated for a moment and said, “It is to monitor Institute Head.”

Gu An nodded and said, “I can let you monitor me, but I want news from the other side. I don't need you to take risks,

just tell me what you know.

Three months later, if your performance is really good, I can pay you one Yuan Spirit Pill.”

“Why three months?” He Wenxiu asked curiously.

“There's no why, it's just to give you some motivation. I'm afraid you won't have any news for me if it's too short,

and you'll lose your fighting spirit if it's too long.” Gu An said casually.

Three months was enough for him to get some news.

“Don't worry, you can come back when you've thought it over. Of course, the three months will start counting after you agree.” Gu An said calmly.

Hearing this, He Wenxiu pondered for a moment and immediately agreed, "I promise. The person who contacted me is a Senior Sister. I don't know her cultivation level, but I'm certain she's on Spirit Bamboo Peak."

"What's her name?" Gu An asked.

"Fairy Xue Ying," He Wenxiu replied.

Gu An nodded and said, "Keep up the good work. The information is sufficient. I'll naturally give you the pills at the beginning of October."

He Wenxiu nodded, then said, "When I report the information to that Senior Sister, I'll let Senior Brother take a look first."

Gu An nodded.

The other party was indeed sensible.

Of course, it's hard to know a person's heart.

It was hard to say whether everything he showed me was the whole truth or just a part of it.

Fortunately, I have the Ring of Destiny, which should allow me to know if there's anything fishy going on.

As for this Fairy Xue Ying, I won't investigate her for now. I'll wait for He Wenxiu's feedback.

I still need to focus on my own affairs first.

The next day.

Early July.

After Gu An handed over the resources of the First Institute, he quietly waited for the rankings.

In the afternoon.

The rankings came out, and Gu An felt a little nervous.

He immediately checked the first place.

Third Institute.

Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

He just needed to keep looking down.

Second place, Fifth Institute.

Third place, First Institute.

Looking at the third place, Gu An finally felt that he had hope again.

After that, it was just a matter of continuing to lower the ranking.

As long as he was there, lowering the ranking was definitely not a problem.

Even if Chen Changfeng brought something, it would no longer stay in the First Institute.

Keeping it would only be like temporary storage. The First Institute would definitely not want it.

The fundamental reason why Chen Changfeng had not yet become a favored genius was that his things had always been taken away.

Otherwise, how could he only be in the mid-stage of the Primordial Spirit realm?

And how could he have ended up being captured?

On this day, people from the Joyful Union Sect also came.

Gu An met the other party at the main institute's reception area.

When he arrived, the other party was already waiting there.

It was a young woman, appearing to be around twenty years old.

She wasn't dressed revealingly, but her cinched waist made her upper body appear heavy.

"This little girl, Jing Ling, greets Institute Head Gu," the other party respectfully bowed.

Gu An stood in place, looking at the other party, and felt a fragrance. Moreover, although her movements seemed proper, they actually gave people a frivolous feeling.

Bewitchment?

Gu An glanced at his status and, sure enough, he was being affected by bewitchment.

Mediocre.

Unlike Chu Meng, who didn't react for half a day after being caught in bewitchment.

The people of the Joyful Union Sect weren't very subtle.

"Have a seat," Gu An said calmly.

After a pause, he added, "Put away the bewitchment."

Hearing this, the other party was stunned. Finally, she lowered her head and said, "It's a natural byproduct of the cultivation technique. I'm sorry for troubling Institute Head Gu. I'll suppress it a little."

As she spoke, she looked somewhat embarrassed.

It seemed as if the bewitchment was difficult to suppress.

Moreover, that embarrassed look gave off a pitiful feeling.

Gu An didn't care and instead said, "Does the Joyful Union Sect have any transactions with the First Institute or the Second Team?"

"No, we don't," Fairy Jing Ling immediately replied.

Gu An walked all the way to the high seat at the top and sat down. Then, he looked at the other party and said, "Then, Fairy, why have you sought me out several times?"

Fairy Jing Ling wasn't in a hurry. Instead, she took out a book and handed it to Gu An, saying, "There are some things I want to show Institute Head."

Gu An took it and found that it was a list of Joyful Union Sect disciples.

He casually opened the folded page.

The words "Shu Ci" were clearly written on it, along with who she apprenticed to, her cultivation level, what kind of cultivation technique she practiced,

what kind of flaws she had. It even said that as long as you exploited this flaw, you could make her unable to stop and turn into a prisoner of desire.

At this time, Fairy Jing Ling smiled and said, "Our sect has such a person. I don't know if she has the same name as someone in the First Institute.

Institute Head can try it out to see if my records are true or false.

If Institute Head can help test the authenticity, this little girl will naturally have a generous reward."

Gu An closed the book and said, "If it's her, what will Fairy do?"

Hearing this, Jing Ling blushed and said, "Then naturally, I will listen to Institute Head. This little girl came to solve Institute Head's problems. Furthermore, this little girl also has flaws in her cultivation technique and is currently modifying it. If Institute Head is willing, you can also try this little girl to see if this little girl will fall into desire.

If I fall into it, then I hope Institute Head can help save this little girl and satisfy this little girl's desires.

If I don't fall into it, then in order to repay Institute Head, this little girl can do anything."

Gu An looked at the person in front of him, his heart calm.

However, his status showed that the other party's bewitchment had not stopped, but had instead increased.

Of course, relying solely on bewitchment was definitely not enough.

The other party was using the various advantages of her body to make people's mental defenses collapse.

Gu An remained unmoved.

He said calmly, "Tell me what you want."

Hearing this, Fairy Jing Ling was somewhat surprised.

Had she failed even like this?

She began to doubt whether the rumors outside were true.

The person in front of her was not young and had long since given up on the idea of love between men and women.

Perhaps it was because of his age, or perhaps it was because of his body.

She felt a little regretful and then said,

"Since Institute Head has said so, then this little girl will be frank. I heard that the Azure Wood Sect is recruiting disciples recently. I hope Institute Head can allow a person who enters the outer sect to go to the inner sect."

"Qi Refining?" Gu An looked at the person in front of him and said, "Since they went to the outer sect, it means they are probably not a genius,

Going to the inner sect will only be felling trees at the foot of the mountain.

They are not true inner sect disciples."

"I understand this. Being able to enter the inner sect to fell trees at the foot of the mountain is enough," Fairy Jing Ling said.

"What can you give me?" Gu An asked.

As he spoke, he picked up the book in his hand and said, "This thing is useless to me. Exchange it for something else. If you can't exchange it for something, then Fairy can leave.

Entering the inner sect is all, no need to find me, anyone can do it.

After all, Fairy is not an ordinary cultivator."

What Gu An said was the truth. Even if he went to Yang Qi, who had not yet formed his Core, and said a word, he could bring people to Shu Ci, Pang Wen, Ruan Huan, and Shang Huo at the foot of Thousand Dust Peak. Everyone could do it.

Finding him was really unnecessary.

"As long as Institute Head needs it, I can do anything," Fairy Jing Ling said.

Gu An shook his head: "But I don't have any needs."

Hearing this, Fairy Jing Ling immediately said: "I know many people and can pass messages for Institute Head. In addition, my cultivation is actually very good. If Institute Head needs it, I can help solve some people that Institute Head is inconvenient to deal with."

Gu An:

He didn't need any extra personnel or forces at all.

This would only tie his hands and feet.

Being alone was the best.

As for news, he still had Dongfang Changli, who was Dongfang's little know-it-all.

Why would he need other people?

"In addition, I have a piece of news." Jing Ling hesitated for a long time, then gritted her teeth and said, "I know that the people from Spirit Radiance Valley are going to target Institute Head."

Hearing this, Gu An was somewhat surprised. This was the first time he had heard of it.

Did he have any enmity with them?

Things were indeed not very pleasant at the beginning, but it had been so long, and he hadn't seen them do anything.

"It's about that demon," Jing Ling said.

Instantly, Gu An became interested.
