After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In Chapter 33 - 33 33 The Other Person Looks Down on Oneself

33: Chapter 33 The Other Person Looks Down on Oneself 33: Chapter 33 The Other Person Looks Down on Oneself [Na: Gu An]

[Cultivation: Qi Refining Seventh Layer]

[Status: Poisoned]

[Magic: 5/50]

[Hard Cultivation: 65/100]

[Ring of Destiny]

Gu An was looking at his panel, where the recently acquired burn status had disappeared.

But if he continued logging, he would surely sustain more burns.

He would need to use a Healing Talisman to heal each ti.

It consus a lot of Spirit Stones.

If it weren’t for the sake of advancing his cultivation, he wouldn’t use them.

It would be better to simply endure the injuries.

However, he also needed to find a way to cope, as with the improvent of his cultivation, logging was getting increasingly under control.

The injuries were sowhat less severe.

Naturally, the Spiritual Energy at his residence was not enough for healing.

Otherwise, why would no one live here?

Exclamations of surprise ca from outside.

The commotion drew Gu An’s glance, and that’s when he saw the little girl.

Their eyes t.

The little girl, panicked, stumbled and fell, then quickly looked up at him.

Asking for help.

Before Gu An could think further, two n appeared in pursuit.

They were two of the five who had troubled the mother and daughter before.

“Uncle, Uncle, save !” cried the little girl, extending her hands in desperation.

Gu An sighed inwardly as he looked at her.

He took a step out of the courtyard.

As he approached the little girl, the two n had already caught up.

They stopped in front of Gu An, furrowing their brows: “Junior Brother, could you hand over the child to us?”

“What has she done?” Gu An asked softly, looking at the little girl who had hidden behind him.

“Junior Brother may not be aware,” the shorter man said, slightly indignant:

“This child stole a hundred Spirit Stones from us, which took us three years to save.

She just took them like that.

So please, Junior Brother, hand her over to us for punishnt.”

Gu An was a bit taken aback.

“Guoguo didn’t steal anything,” the little girl said timidly.

Gu An of course knew she hadn’t stolen, and it was clear that the n were after him for that mission.

He just didn’t know on whose behalf they were acting.

“Senior Brothers, how about we forget this?” Gu An asked respectfully.

He didn’t really know what was the right thing to do.

But he tried to ask anyway.

“Forget it?” the shorter man said, a bit astonished:

“Do you know what you are saying, Junior Brother?”

Gu An nodded slightly.

“You know?” The other man, with a vicious face, said contemptuously:

“What are you, to talk like that?

We call you ‘Junior Brother’ out of respect.

Otherwise, you’re just an old fool.

Hand over the person or repay a hundred Spirit Stones on her behalf.

If you don’t have the Spirit Stones, stop pretending.”

The n’s words were ugly, and Gu An looked at them,

feeling the little girl’s hand clutching his clothing, very tightly.

He was about to speak, but then a rumbling noise ca from a distance.

Boom!

Clouds of smoke billowed.

Seeing the sudden change, the two n’s expressions shifted, and they hurried toward the disturbance.

Gu An watched them leave, feeling little relief in his heart.

He was likely implicated now.

No trouble today, but possibly tomorrow.

Waiting at the spot for a mont, Gu An saw a woman slowly approaching.

She bore so injuries.

It was the little girl’s mother.

When she reached Gu An, she expressed her gratitude: “Thank you, Senior Brother, if it were not for your help, Guoguo could have been torn asunder.”

Her features were delicate, and although she had a child, her figure bore no unnecessary traces.

Not only that, there is also a mature charm.

Upon seeing the other party’s salute, it felt sowhat strange.

Checked the status pane at once.

[Status: Poisoned, affected by Charming Technique]

As expected, Gu An looked at the other party indifferently and spoke softly: “No need to thank , after all, the Immortal did it on purpose.

I’m just a victim.”

This young girl had no injuries, the blood was sared on her by soone.

And when she ran over, her posture was off, she had fallen on purpose.

Furthermore, he noticed that the little girl was hiding behind her mother not as closely as he did.

Apart from instinct, soone must have instructed her.

The person before him was the most likely.

Of course, it was all speculation.

Perhaps it was an overthink.

But upon hearing these words, the other party lowered her head unnaturally.

So Gu An felt he guessed right.

“Causing trouble for Junior Brother.” The woman bowed with an apology: “Ren Shan offers apologies to Junior Brother.”

Gu An looked at her and could sense a pride she was trying to hide.

Just an apology?

Gu An shook his head: “I don’t need the Immortal’s apology, nor her compensation.

Let’s just consider it a transaction.

I’ve already been involved, I can help protect your daughter, so what benefits can you offer ?”

Upon hearing this, Ren Shan’s brows furrowed slightly.

A flicker of imperceptible disdain flashed across her eyes before she finally shook her head and said:

“We are just a mother and daughter alone; we cannot afford the transaction you propose, Ren Shan will quickly repay this kindness.”

That ant she would not repay it, Gu An thought, and couldn’t help but sneer inside as he looked at the person before him.

She talked the talk, but in reality, she did not want to give anything.

Having used him and looking down on his ager strength, was he not worthy of trading?

Gu An looked at her and nodded slightly: “Then do as you please, Immortal.”

He was not in a hurry.

Those who borrow Spirit Stones are no easy marks, and the person before him was no soft persimmon.

Ren Shan nodded, then left with her company.

The little girl seed puzzled but still followed and left.

Gu An watched them go, his heart unmoved.

Although he spoke lightly, having been drawn in, it was not easy to disentangle.

As for the task.

He never thought to win them over with kindness and help.

Within the Sect, such purity is the easiest to be endlessly exploited.

The day he stops contributing, they will feel as if he has committed so unforgivable sin.

So, there was only one way to complete the task.

Negotiation.

Making a deal is good for everyone.

Since she looked down upon him, there was no rush.

Today there was nothing to be done; he began to tidy up the yard, which was quite dilapidated before.

Only after two months of work did it start to look decent.

It has a front yard, a backyard, a master bedroom, a secondary bedroom, a living room, a study, and a cultivation room.

The living room is right at the entrance, to the left is the study and the kitchen.

Upstairs to the right is the secondary bedroom, overlooking the backyard, and downstairs to the right is the master bedroom, overlooking the front yard, with a practice room and a bathroom.

At night, Gu An checked his Spirit Stones.

There were fewer than when he first arrived, although not by much.

But going on like this, he would eventually run out.

“Do I need to find a way to make money?”

Gu An thought of Yang Shi, who had a talent for talisman making.

It would make earning Spirit Stones a lot easier.

“It seems I also need to see if I have such talents.”

Most likely not.

He rested until late at night.

Suddenly, Gu An felt a response from the Ring of Destiny.

“It’s been a long ti since it last appeared.”

Gu An checked imdiately.

In an instant, so text appeared in his mind.

[Yesterday morning, your neighbor Ren Shan knew she was about to be targeted, so she told her daughter to run to you when it happens, and to deliberately fall down when soone was watching, crying out for help.

She thought this would compel you to act out of compassion and then beco her weapon against her enemies.

She would use Charming Technique to emotionally and logically influence you into becoming her “ally,” but the plan failed.

She wanted to use you as her weapon, yet found you wanted benefits—an insignificant Qi Refining Sixth Level like you is not worthy in her eyes of an equal transaction.

However, you have already been drawn in, which will relieve so of her pressure.

Later, she will have her daughter stick close to you, fully pushing you to the forefront.

Your conscience is the breach that has enshed you into the vortex.]
