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

With Ren Shan's matter behind him, Gu An could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

However, he still had to watch out for any unexpected situations.

Seven days passed.

It was early April.

Everything had been peaceful.

Especially today, as it was the day to receive resources.

Unlike before, he now displayed his seventh level of Qi Refining cultivation.

Few people would ask to "borrow" spirit stones from him anymore.

The seven days hadn't brought much change to his stats.

If he wanted to advance, it would have to wait until the end of the month.

If his luck was bad, it would be early May.

Of course, if he could keep logging, he might be able to attempt advancement around the middle of the month.

But the sect didn't allow non-stop logging, at least not in the Azure Yang Wood area.

Today, after receiving his resources, Gu An returned to his residence.

He stood before the pond, looking at the Big-Eyed Fish.

It was still leisurely floating belly-up.

This suggested that no one had been here.

Chu Meng's arrival had made him realize the fish's purpose.

It would hide whenever a stranger approached.

Its other functions were currently unknown.

It liked to eat the astral Qi of the Qi Sea Celestial Dipper.

But the second part of the Qi Sea Celestial Dipper required exchange at the Merit Hall.

Gu An inquired and found it was not any cheaper than a Foundation Establishment technique.

Gu An calculated how long it would take him to obtain it.

Suddenly, the Ring of Destiny gave feedback.

He didn't dare to hesitate and immediately checked the contents.

[Yesterday at noon, Qing Chenxi received a mission and learned that she was to wait for others at the old temple outside the city at midnight tonight, and they would depart once everyone was present. She has been planning this mission for a long time. Once successful, she will return with a Foundation Establishment cultivation.

To ensure everything goes smoothly, she has ordered her trusted aides to keep an eye on you, not wanting anything to happen to you. She will personally take you away upon her return to interrogate you about Ren Shan.

And also to avenge her two subordinates, regardless of how they died, the blame will ultimately fall on you.

When people die, there must be an explanation, and your life will be the explanation for others.]

Reading the contents of the Ring of Destiny, Gu An was somewhat surprised.

Qing Chenxi was about to establish her foundation.

And once she did, she would come looking for him.

Although he knew he was being targeted, he didn't expect her to take action so directly.

Wasn't she afraid of being watched by the Hall of Law Enforcement?

Someone must be backing her.

That would make her less scrupulous, especially since he was an elderly man in his forties.

His cultivation was average, and he was old, so few would help him.

Even if he died, the sect wouldn't necessarily know for a while.

Just like Ren Shan's disappearance.

Only those who paid attention to her knew of her disappearance.

Others simply didn't know when the sect had lost a person.

Even if the Hall of Law Enforcement had strict people, they would first have to know what was happening.

Gu An calmed down.

No matter what, he had to remain calm.

After thinking for a moment, he realized he still had some time.

If he could advance to Foundation Establishment before she returned.

Then the danger would be resolved.

But he needed at least two to three months to advance, and he also needed a cultivation technique.

If he didn't have one, no one could be sure how long it would be delayed.

How long would it take Qing Chenxi to complete her mission?

Several months?

Gu An didn't know, but could he afford to gamble?

Foundation Establishment was distant. If she returned within a month, it would be too late.

Then there was only one other path.

Gu An's eyes flashed with coldness and determination: "Intercept and kill her."

He thought he was already acting fast enough by making his move soon, but he didn't expect her to be just as quick.

He originally wanted to advance to the ninth level of Qi Refining before taking action, but now he couldn't wait.

With the eighth level of Qi Refining, coupled with the Astral Qi of the Qi Sea and the Mountain-Splitting Fist, even if he couldn't kill her, he could injure her and disrupt her plans.

As long as Qing Chenxi didn't become a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the next few months, he would have a chance.

He took a deep breath.

Gu An began to calculate his chances of success.

A perfected Mountain-Splitting Fist enhanced by the Astral Qi of the Qi Sea would definitely injure her.

The extent of the injury was uncertain.

And a defensive talisman could withstand one or two attacks.

Thinking this, he took out a small shield.

This was Ren Shan's shield, which might also block an attack.

He had previously refined the shield, so it had defensive capabilities, but it wasn't that strong.

In any case, it was better than nothing.

Then he checked his pills.

There was nothing useful, he would go buy some poison and see.

Gu An didn't dare to linger and headed to the market, leaving the sect.

Qing Chenxi was to arrive at the destination at midnight to wait for people, so he had to go as early as possible.

If others arrived first, then he would have to find a way to intercept Qing Chenxi along the way.

After looking around, Gu An found that the poison was not very effective and required some time to take effect.

Especially against Qi Refining ninth level cultivators.

But Gu An still spent some spirit stones to buy poison.

He also bought some more defensive talismans.

Now was not the time to be stingy with spirit stones.

After spending a lot of spirit stones.

Gu An left the market and the sect.

When buying, he had already inquired that there was only one old temple outside the city.

It had been abandoned for some time, and it was said that the original temple had been moved.

When Gu An arrived, he found that it was not small. He stood on the roof and observed it, confirming that there was no one there.

Then he found a high place, hid himself, and waited for Qing Chenxi.

If she could arrive ahead of the others, it would be advantageous to him.

If not, he would have to think of a way.

The sky gradually darkened, and Gu An was sitting cross-legged, trying to restore himself to his best condition.

The bright moon hung high.

As it approached midnight, Gu An heard movement.

Turning his head, he saw two figures approaching the old temple.

Seeing this, Gu An's heart sank.

Two people...

He had no hope.

As they approached, he hid in the darkness and saw that it was Qing Chenxi and a woman.

He didn't rush but began to wait.

He couldn't act now, so he would wait for an opportunity.

"Senior Sister, how long will it take for you to return?" Zheng Xiu asked.

"Seven days at the earliest, a month at the latest," Qing Chenxi said as she entered the old temple and started a fire.

"When will the other senior brothers and sisters arrive?" Zheng Xiu asked.

Qing Chenxi looked at the person in front of her and said seriously: "They just returned from completing their mission, so they will be a little late.

During this time, you should keep an eye on Gu An. If you have a chance, you can ask him about Ren Shan yourself.

Remember, unless you are successful, do not act rashly.

And do not send people to harass him, it will only make him more vigilant.

Once a cornered dog jumps over the wall, something unpredictable will happen."

"Don't worry, Senior Sister. I specifically investigated this Gu An. He's just from a remote forest area, with no background and no ability.

He only joined the sect in his forties.

Such a person, when they meet us outside, will wag their tails like dogs," Zheng Xiu said with a smile.

"Don't underestimate him. It's not simple to be able to join the sect in his forties," Qing Chenxi smiled and said:

"But he won't take sides. How can you stay out of it in the sect?

Does he really think one person can rise up?

When I come back, I will see his pre-death repentance."

"Senior Sister is truly merciful," Zheng Xiu said with an admiring smile.

Qing Chenxi shook her head and said, "You should go back first. There can be no mistakes during this time."

"Okay, then I won't accompany Senior Sister." Saying this, Zheng Xiu stepped away and left.

After Zheng Xiu had left for a long time, Qing Chenxi suddenly heard some movement.

Suddenly, sword light came from the front.

"Who is it?" she shouted angrily, and the aura of the ninth level of Qi Refining burst out.
