Chapter 753 - 454: Chu Meng: The Terrifying Power of Love
Fortunately, Gu An has cultivated the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Chapter quite well.
There will be no slightest exposure.
Otherwise, in front of the master, even the slightest change would be detected by him.
As for the current self, expressions are under the control of the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Chapter.
The flow of Spiritual Energy and changes in spiritual power are all smoothly controlled.
It won’t be detected whether I’m lying or not.
As for cultivation...
In the past, perhaps there were still people who could probe, but now it is impossible.
Under the cover of Xuanhuang Qi, basically, no one would see my true cultivation.
Of course.....
Under the widespread rumors, no matter how I hide, it’s to no avail.
In the eyes of others, I am truly someone at the seventh layer of the Immortal Bridge, with two out of the Three Flowers ignited.
This is still the result of me risking everything to catch up with the rumors.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t even match the rumors.
If anyone targets me in the future, I can hardly escape.
Although I barely caught up now, the ones targeting certainly won’t send those of the same level.
The subsequent realms are either Three Flowers or Immortal.
The span between realms is too large.
I can’t handle it.
In the past, crossing the major realm from Golden Core to Primordial Spirit, Returning to Void, these were still manageable.
Because all were below the Immortal, surpassing wasn’t considered out of reach.
But now, one major realm is an Immortal.
Ten lives wouldn’t be enough.
To surpass it, the hardships are full of unknowns.
Gu An performed the greeting ceremony, respectfully saying, "Master, please judge clearly, those outside are just rumors."
"Rumors?" Situ Baichuan looked at Gu An and chuckled lightly, "Do you mean someone brazenly wronged you?"
"Yes." Gu An nodded heavily.
"Then why would he wrong you? If it’s a wrong, why say it’s the Immortal Bridge and not Returning to Void?" Situ Baichuan asked again.
Gu An was stunned, finally shaking his head, "Disciple does not know."
How could he understand the thoughts of the other party?
He was also baffled, why indeed?
To harm me? Or to make me overshadow others, so their concerned ones stay hidden in the dark.
Gu An remained without any clues.
Fortunately, the Sect still provided enough help.
On the contrary, it was safer than before.
But this safety was not given by myself, thus it was not secure enough.
I should still quickly improve my cultivation, to make safety even safer.
"So, you still don’t admit your cultivation?" Situ Baichuan sighed and said, "Seems you don’t trust your master enough, is it perhaps the saying about a prominent tree?"
"No." Gu An shook his head, deliberated a moment, then said, "If it were true, why would one need to be so cautious."
"Never mind, it’s because your master did not care for you enough, leading you to have these thoughts." Situ Baichuan shook his head slightly, saying, "However, rumors are everywhere, real or fake, you are already caught in the vortex.
There must be an identity matching your reputation.
From today onwards, you are my Direct Disciple.
All treatments will be doubled.
You will have certain authority to mobilize people from Heavenly Suspension Peak.
But you can only mobilize those with lower cultivation than you.
That’s below the seventh layer of the Immortal Bridge."
Before Gu An could speak, Situ Baichuan handed the new Identity Token to Gu An, continued saying, "Do your duties well, also at the end of this year, you need to pay attention to the marriage.
Though it’s a small affair, remember not to offend the Commandery Princess’s side."
Gu An nodded to express understanding, the Royal Family is not to be trifled with.
But the superior is to marry by proxy, who knows what the Royal Family’s reaction would be if they knew.
Most likely both the superior and subordinate would suffer.
Inexplicably, there’s a bit of hardship to bear.
The superior watching closely, while also offending the Royal Family.
The only advantage is, the superior understands and assigns him the task of logging.
And allows him to continue focusing on the path.
Were it someone else.....
Indeed some trouble, not understanding him, also would not allow logging.
This situation would be disastrous.
"Do your best, your master thinks highly of you, you have not disappointed your master." Saying this, Situ Baichuan swiftly disappeared.
Gu An gazed silently in the direction the other left.
Even as a Direct Disciple, no Spirit Stone was given.
Nor a special Spirit Tree sent.
Shaking his head, Gu An didn’t think further.
There are nearly six months until the marriage, during which he must quickly ignite one more flower.
Thus completing the Three Flowers will have self-defense capabilities.
Secondly, is to become Immortal.
To wait until after marriage.
Due to the Qi Sea Sky Gang and Mystic Yellow Green Lotus, becoming Immortal will not be easy.
He doesn’t even know if the current quotas can support his ascension to Immortal.
Nor if the depletion of Spiritual Energy will accelerate.
He still needs to watch out for Sea-born Heavenly Court.
No one knows what their purpose is.
If it’s to completely sever the Immortal Road, it will make things more difficult for him.
Thinking no more, Gu An looked at the Identity Token in his hand.
It was also a Jade Pendant.
And having this item makes him a Direct Disciple.
The next day.
Gu An received news at Heavenly Suspension Peak.
The Peak Master has publicly announced that he has become a Direct Disciple.
Then...
Gu An received new news, because of becoming a Direct Disciple, the rumors became increasingly real, and basically everyone believed his Immortal Bridge cultivation.
No matter if it makes sense, that’s how everyone feels.
Perhaps some think it’s unreasonable, possibly mere rumors.
But these people are too few, and don’t dare try proving it.
So within the Sect, he’s almost secured the status of Immortal Bridge cultivation.
Gu An understands, the older generation surely has doubts, but.....
Since the Peak Master hasn’t raised it, everyone is even more puzzled.
Gu An didn’t understand what his master had planned.
If he just probed a little, the truth would be clear, but there were no further actions.
"Is it due to him being a marriage candidate for the Royal Family?"
Gu An thinks it’s highly possible.
