After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In

"Can activating the Law in my hand ensure safety?" Gu An asked.

Although Chu Meng’s arguments were reasonable and indeed formidable,

preserving one’s life is most important.

Chu Meng gave Gu An a deep look, then said, "Have you killed too many people and now fear being killed yourself?

You weren’t like this before.

Is it because of my arranged marriage replacement role, knowing you’ll have to marry me, that you’re starting to cherish your life?

It’s true, a superior like me is hard to find even with a lantern.

Sitting with poise and grace, my unmatched beauty gathers all the Spiritual Energy in the world.

Standing, my posture is upright yet gentle, transcendent and ethereal, with a slender waist gracefully swaying.

Walking, my steps are light, ethereal yet composed, with a smile and demeanor like a peony’s first bloom.

Being enchanted by a superior like me is indeed not your fault.

Are you already envisioning your bestial behavior after we wed?"

After a pause, Chu Meng continued, "Preservation is possible, but spatial stability is not as good as borrowing position from far away."

Gu An: "...."

He merely wanted the last line, never expecting Chu Meng to say so much beforehand.

This superior of his always has a mind filled with filth.

Who knows when it might become cleaner.

Still, according to what was said, Gu An’s methods for preservation are indeed remarkable, providing reassurance.

As for the Barrier Array being unable to prevent entry, it’s certainly a great advantage.

But he seldom goes out.

It’s hard to say if it will ever be used.

Also, he can’t reveal that he is the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch.

He can’t possibly enter a Barrier and shout, ’Nine Chapters of Decrees, Chapter One, Heaven and Earth Borrowing Position, let me through.’

How embarrassing.

The face of the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch would likely evaporate instantly.

Even as a Golden Core cultivator, it’s difficult to maintain poise.

Finally, Gu An stops thinking about these matters.

Heaven and Earth Borrowing Position should be grand in its complete form.

But currently, he can only utilize the basics.

Unable to truly achieve positional conversion.

"Senior, I heard the wedding date has been set recently?" Gu An asked, sitting at the table.

If the Commandery Princess were to elope at this moment, it would be a blessing for him as well.

"Indeed, the marriage arrangement has been prepared. You’re set to marry me next December," Chu Meng said nonchalantly while eating, "So you don’t need to call me Senior anymore, call me fiancée."

Ignoring the last statement, Gu An curiously asked, "Such a hasty timeline, might there be unforeseen issues with the arranged marriage?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Meng was taken aback, saying, "You don’t mean to suddenly want to marry a two-hundred-pound Commandery Princess, do you?"

Gu An: "...."

I don’t want to marry either.

Yet, inevitably, I must wed.

Gu An ultimately shook his head.

He cannot determine who the Commandery Princess is, and he has many secrets that cannot be exposed.

Although marrying the arranged replacement Chu Meng is somewhat a loss, it won’t fundamentally affect him.

For example, logging, or tasks, etc.

"The wedding date is set, and it’s nearly impossible to change. I heard you want to simplify the wedding?" Chu Meng asked curiously.

Gu An nodded, saying, "Since Senior is a replacement bride, if it’s too ostentatious, there might be danger."

"Aren’t there too many people criticizing you? Surely someone will protest during the wedding, you’re not afraid of losing control and causing a massacre on the big day, are you?" Chu Meng questioned.

Gu An: "...."

Which eye of yours sees me as such a person?

Ultimately, regarding the wedding date and scale, they had no disputes.

Depends on how the Sect decides.

No news has arrived yet.

Afterwards, Gu An brought up matters of the Divine Monarch Hall.

There’s roughly two or three matters that need discussing.

One is the Nether Sea Clan, the second is the decline of Spiritual Energy, the third is what Biluo Divine Monarch mentioned.

Gu An mentioned them one by one.

"So the Nether Sea Clan still has people guarding it?" Chu Meng said in surprise.

Gu An wasn’t certain, but so far only one person from the Nether Sea Clan has escaped, still in the First Institute.

It somewhat eases concerns.

But if one can escape, another might follow, caution must not be neglected.

They didn’t discuss further.

Instead, they talked about the decline of Spiritual Energy.

"Occurrences of Spiritual Energy decay are in fact few," Chu Meng pondered briefly, "I’ve seen two records in ancient texts.

Spiritual Energy decay is generally meant to seal the Immortal Road.

But such incidents usually happen post-catastrophes.

Heaven and Earth upheaval, Immortal Dao collapses, achieving immortality becomes as difficult as ascending the heavens.

That’s the first type of record.

The second type is when some dominion aims to establish Immortal rules, hence sealing the Immortal Road.

Immortality is granted after they inflict trials of heavenly tribulations.

It’s said the Sea-born Heavenly Court intended something similar back then."

Sea-born Heavenly Court? Gu An was slightly puzzled.

Afterward, Chu Meng briefly explained.

The Sea-born Heavenly Court was the dominator of the Celestial realm in ancient times, ruling over the Cultivation World.

It should have belonged to the same era as the Divine Monarch Hall.

Gu An recalled the ruins within the Divine Monarch Hall and asked, "Is the Sea-born Heavenly Court related to Sea Birth City?"

Chu Meng shook her head, unaware, but then she reminded:

"If this decline in Spiritual Energy is real, then we must be cautious.

We must quickly achieve immortality, for if we delay, it will become exceedingly difficult.

However, the appearance of declining Spiritual Energy in a normal era seems quite abnormal.

Could this be the End of Dharma Era?"

The End of Dharma Era? Gu An also had the same suspicion.

But there were no answers.

He could only take one step at a time, hoping to achieve immortality quickly.

But without enough Spirit Trees, it could take a lot of time.

As for the last matter, Chu Meng paid it no mind, only said: "It just so happens we’ll be heading to that place as well, we’ll see what the situation is like.

I remember there should be countermeasures there, now that you’re a Nine Heavens Divine Monarch, you can solve it easily."

With these words from the other party, Gu An felt relieved.

The reopening of the Divine Monarch Hall was also much easier to face.

He spoke with more confidence.

After discussing some related matters about the Divine Monarch Hall, Chu Meng suddenly took out a box: "This is for you."

Gu An was somewhat surprised.

He immediately took it and opened it.

Inside he found nine red beans.

Of even better quality than before.

Putting down the plate in her hand, Chu Meng said: "Are you moved? Seeing that your red beans were gone, as your superior, I immediately prepared task rewards for you.

Delivered right to your doorstep."

Gu An raised his eyebrows at the person before him and said, "Senior, are you spying on me every day?"

Chu Meng: "..."

"You’re quite sly," Chu Meng pointed around the room and said, "Won’t you check the quality of your Planting Beans into Soldiers?"

Gu An: "...."

So this is how you noticed.

"What’s wrong? Afraid I found out about your hidden lover and can’t explain it to the Commandery Princess?" Chu Meng asked with a teasing smile.

Gu An: "..."

"It’s now late July, and we’re setting off to Beihu Snow Continent at the end of next month," Chu Meng announced.

Gu An didn’t want to delay either.

As long as he truly can cloak Heavenly Mechanism.

Then the Heavenly Maiden Lineage, Zhuanlun lineage, the Nether Sea Clan, Royal Family, and Buddhist sect should all be unable to pinpoint him.

There’s more than a month left, enough time to enhance his cultivation.

Let’s see how far I can advance.

Let me witness firsthand how far the Heavenly Snow Tree can evolve under my hands.

Once Chu Meng left, Gu An appeared before the Heavenly Snow Tree with an axe.

Beginning a new round of cultivation.

...

Spirit Controlling Peak.

In a tea pavilion nestled between mountain slopes, someone sat inside drinking tea.

Seemingly contemplating the recent occurrences within the Sect.

Suddenly, one of the men received a message.

He immediately checked it, slightly surprised: "We’re advised to appropriately create some trouble and pressure for Gu An."

Junior Sister Mu looked a little surprised at Senior Brother Kong and asked:

"What use are these troubles?"

"Perhaps it’s because Prince Ming Xian is in the Cangmu Sect, wanting to see his attitude," Senior Brother Kong said with a smile, "But judging by the wedding scale, this Gu An doesn’t seem to be that significant.

Applying pressure on him would be quite easy.

Last time we sent him away, but he managed to return safely, which was truly unexpected.

Is it the Royal Family that protected him, or the Law Enforcement Hall?"

Junior Sister Mu laughed and said: "He might still be unaware that we meddled.

If he remains unharmed, it appears the Law Enforcement Hall won’t get involved excessively.

This leaves plenty of room.

The recent wedding affair has emboldened many.

And those few words from the Tianqing Sect previously pushed him to the center of attention.

All we need to do is push a little, which should suffice.

Furthermore, we can try to hint to the people of the Outer Peak; it’s certainly easy to make it difficult for those in the First Institute."

Senior Brother Kong nodded with a smile: "But we must conceal it somewhat, and secondly, ensure no real harm comes to Gu An.

As long as we’re within the Sect, we can’t do anything too harsh.

But making his tasks impossible, yet leaving him helpless, is still quite easy.

Let’s see if that Prince will get involved."

With these words, the two exchanged a knowing smile.

They didn’t seem to have any regard for the person they planned to deal with.

It seemed they already had a thorough understanding.

Understanding the rules completely.
