After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 166: Stuck in Logistics, All I Can Do Is Logging
Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Stuck in Logistics, All I Can Do Is Logging
The Paperman came over.
Gu An saw it fumble for a moment and took out an envelope.
It was addressed for Gu An to open personally.
"If this were delivered to someone else, wouldn’t it expose me?"
"Wouldn’t they open it upon seeing these words?"
Gu An felt that these words were not very secure.
Then he opened the envelope to check the contents:
"I’ve heard a thing or two about Junior Brother’s affairs; I didn’t expect that at your age, Junior Brother could still be so valiant.
Just hearing the rumors, I thought Junior Brother was a hot-blooded young man in his early twenties; who could imagine it’s a little old man over fifty.
But with Golden Core Cultivation, you should have gotten younger, right?
You shouldn’t still look like a little old man.
I specifically asked around, and although Junior Brother’s situation seems dangerous, it is indeed not very safe.
Fortunately, the higher-ups don’t pay attention to you, so being cautious, you should still be safe for a while.
However, over time, everyone’s concerns will diminish.
You need to change your situation as soon as possible.
Also, I don’t know if you are still practicing the third volume of Qi Sea Sky Gang; I just happen to have it, so I’m giving it to you.
For the next level of Cultivation Technique, you could try to approach Longevity Sect, a declining small sect; perhaps you could exchange for the technique at the smallest cost.
Recently, I also obtained a stalk of Spiritual Medicine that can extend life by sixty years, not knowing if you still need it, I’ll give it to you as well.
By the way, the Sect has recently promoted a talented figure named Chu Meng, whose talents seem extraordinary.
This person is extremely dangerous, you should be careful not to be targeted.
Also, do not let others know of your acquaintance with me, as that would put you in even greater danger.
Another most important matter, do you have Spirit Stones?
The more, the better, earn Spirit Stones, they are a good thing.
—Left by Hua Jiyang."
After reading the letter, Gu An furrowed his brows.
What’s with calling him a little old man?
That line could’ve been left unwritten.
Moreover, he hasn’t gotten any younger, in fact, he felt a bit older.
Could it be his lifespan is actually running short?
Gu An sensed his own body; his Qi-Blood was vigorous, showing no signs of decline.
Perhaps dreaming too much was affecting his mentality.
Hence, he appeared even older.
But it’s also good; the older he looks, the easier it is to be underestimated.
Moreover, not only does he know Chu Meng, he has been targeted.
But Hua Jiyang seems to be very wary of her.
It seems fine for the moment.
He then received a stalk of Spiritual Medicine and a book from the Paperman.
It was the third volume of Qi Sea Sky Gang.
Gu An sighed.
The gifts from Hua Jiyang were indeed very useful, and he even provided information about the subsequent techniques.
However, Qi Sea Sky Gang should not be improved for now.
If it’s enhanced any further, other techniques cannot be improved.
But now he’s still lacking attack techniques, and moving techniques as well.
To improve his overall strength, Qi Sea Sky Gang needs to be put on hold.
Three years, to make Elder Miao realize his conscience, is indeed a difficult task.
He then stored away the Spiritual Medicine.
Thus, he had four items that could extend his lifespan.
Although he didn’t know if they were useful, it was always good to keep them, always feeling they would come in handy.
Afterwards, he counted the Spirit Stones he had on him, which had unconsciously exceeded fifteen hundred.
Leaving an odd thirty-six Spirit Stones, Gu An handed over the remaining stones to the Paperman.
Then the Paperman quickly disappeared.
Hua Jiyang’s method was not bad.
But he also had a similar one.
Planting Beans into Soldiers, but it can’t go and deliver things like the Paperman.
Plus, the Red Armor Soldiers of Planting Beans into Soldiers were normal human size.
They can’t move in silence like this either.
Later, Gu An briefly reviewed the third volume of Qi Sea Sky Gang.
This volume was Gang Qi Ice Melting.
Gang Qi condensing into mist was the first volume.
The second volume was Gang Qi Water Transformation.
The third volume is about solidifying water into ice.
Like the second volume, it also requires three layers of cultivation to be effective.
But judging by the current strength of the second volume, one can also wield power horizontally at the Golden Core stage.
If one learns the third volume, it would be a total crush.
Unfortunately, achieving Golden Core Perfection is definitely harder than reaching the nine layers of Qi Sea Sky Gang.
The next day.
Gu An flew on his sword to the Outer Peaks, quite a distance, so he got up a little earlier.
Before the appointed time, Gu An arrived at an extremely peripheral mountain peak, which seemed to be even further out than where the Outer Sect was located.
He soon saw architecture similar to a marketplace.
Landing in front of the outermost building, two people stopped Gu An.
Both were at the Golden Core cultivation level.
It seemed like everyone here was very strong.
That elder really didn’t have good intentions.
"Who goes there?" a guard asked in a deep voice.
Gu An presented his assignment token.
The two looked at Gu An with some surprise, and finally said:
"Senior Brother, please."
They also informed him of the location.
After thanking them, Gu An entered the Inner Sect of the building and was subsequently taken to the topmost area.
As he entered, he immediately felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.
A middle-aged man sat squarely in the highest seat.
Staring at the items on the table.
It seemed to take him a moment to notice Gu An’s arrival: "Are you here for the Sect assignment?"
"Yes, a disciple of Qianchen Peak," Gu An replied respectfully.
The man reached out his hand and the assignment letter fell into it.
After a glance, he let out a sneering laugh:
"Then stay. First, go to the backyard; when you get there, you’ll be given specific tasks.
There are two teams in the backyard, just look for a man named Song Feng.
He will be your team leader from now on.
Go."
Gu An bowed respectfully and then withdrew.
He did not understand what the sneer was all about.
Backyard.
A rather burly man looked at Gu An for a long time before saying, "The hero against corruption rumored in the Sect?"
"It was merely by chance," Gu An said.
"Do people look at results or reasons?" Song Feng chuckled and said:
"There’s plenty to do in the backyard. If there are issues with the spirit wood sold or the buildings constructed, we handle them.
But during downtime, it’s all logging.
The longer the downtime, the larger the quantity required."
Hearing this, before the other could say more, Gu An immediately said:
"I am not very familiar with building with spirit wood, but I have some insights into logging.
I hope Senior Brother can leave all the work to me."
Such words left Song Feng at a loss for how to continue for a moment.
He looked at Gu An playfully: "All of it?"
"Yes, all of it," Gu An nodded.
"You can endure almost non-stop work for a month without sleep? Do you know what kind of wood it is?" Song Feng retorted.
"I don’t know, but I enjoy logging, I hope Senior Brother can facilitate that." Gu An spoke sincerely.
His Qi-Blood had now recovered.
He still looked like a normal person.
"Seems you’re not so young anymore, perhaps with more patience, then let’s have you try," Song Feng said with a smile.
Someone volunteered to log, naturally making him happy.
He could take a break.
Logging surely can’t compare with proper cultivation.
"Find a place to stay, then head to the woods behind, you can choose any axe. In the end, just place it underneath the energy stone of Team One, and our task is complete when the stone lights up," Song Feng patted Gu An’s shoulder with a smile:
"The future of Team One is now in your hands."
Gu An accepted with a smile.
Watching Gu An leave, Song Feng couldn’t help but sneer:
"He seems to know his place, acting dumb.
I don’t know what the Manager is thinking, sending him here.
Against corruption...
What else is there, besides being bullied by other Sects?"
