After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 201 - 192: Business Is Business, War Is War

End of November.

Forty-eight-year-old Gu An had already been serving for quite some time as the leader of the second team.

During this period, he was involved in logging.

Both for the second team’s and the Left Courtyard’s.

It was the same for all.

Because he became a team leader, Gu An could only find his senior sister Ye Huaxiao and return the subsequent Spirit Stones to her.

It was unlikely for him to come here for logging again in the future.

Neither party had anticipated such an event.

And Gu An’s speed at logging was evident to all.

Although somewhat reluctant, he didn’t care much about it.

After all, it was just a logging job.

Logging is everywhere; it’s just that some people do it well, and some don’t.

At the end of the day, it’s still a logging job.

After taking back the Spirit Stones and Token, Ye Huaxiao let Gu An leave.

This place was not open for access, and entry was not to be taken lightly.

Gu An nodded in understanding.

He truly had no qualification to enter here, and he understood that he can’t do so carelessly in the future.

For many people, being able to enter here freely was a symbol of status.

Ye Huaxiao and others felt that they had stripped Gu An of this special privilege.

However, Gu An never felt any actual benefits from this so-called status.

All the misfortune that was meant to come, came without exception.

End of November.

The affairs with the Blood Refining Sect had finally settled down.

But many were injured, and the Sect wasn’t in a hurry to assign tasks.

The same was true for the back court.

But after nearly half a month of rest, it was time to work again.

That day, Gu An received two tasks.

Issued by the Main Court.

The tasks were released by a brother from the Main Court.

Gu An looked at him and asked, "Does the first team have any tasks?"

"The leader of the first team is injured, so it’s not suitable for them to take on tasks right now. The second team is fully staffed, so it’s most appropriate for you guys. It was ordered by the elder." The man, who looked to be around twenty-five or twenty-six, said to Gu An.

When saying the last sentence, he knew Gu An couldn’t refute.

As expected, Gu An could only nod in agreement.

"Leader Gu, you just took office and don’t understand many things, so I won’t take it too seriously," the task brother said in an educational tone:

"The tasks I issue here have been considered by the Main Court, and every elder will confirm them.

So in the future, don’t ask why. A good leader just accepts tasks and works hard to complete them.

You won’t be asking so many questions.

Talking too much can easily make you disliked.

From now on, whatever I say, you listen. A good hunting dog won’t bark at its master."

Gu An nodded and turned to leave.

He then heard whispering behind him.

"Brother, isn’t it a bit too much to speak to him like that? After all, he’s a leader whose status is much higher than ours."

"It’s just a leader who’s on the path of no return. I heard he’s been abandoned by the Inner Sect. Making him a leader is basically to let him disappear completely.

I spoke like that on purpose; those above are watching. It won’t be long before I get some Spirit Stones. Just a few words and I get all these things, why wouldn’t I be happy?

The Cultivation World is like this, yesterday you stepped on him to rise; today, I step on you. Moreover, I’ve observed simply; he’s nothing but a stray dog. In the future, there will be plenty of hard times for him in the tasks.

Choosing sides is more important than effort; you’ll understand later."

Gu An walked out the door, brow lowered.

He sighed in his heart; indeed, he couldn’t be as impulsive as before.

His strength didn’t allow it.

Just endure it, endure it and it will pass.

Night.

The task brother closed the door, holding Spirit Stones and planning to go to the Inner Sect to find a sister he had long admired. She needed to improve her cultivation, and what she lacked were Spirit Stones.

"Today I made a good sum. It’s just a few words, and I received so many Spirit Stones. Gu An really is my lucky star; next time he comes, I will continue to insult him with my words, and I expect to receive even more Spirit Stones."

The task brother weighed the Spirit Stones in his hand, a smile on his face: "Now that the affairs of the Blood Refining Sect have just passed, everyone knows the Law Enforcement Hall is watching closely, no one dares to kill at this time.

As long as I don’t leave the Outer Peak and head to the Sect, I’ll be perfectly safe." frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

The more he thought, the more excited he became.

He seemed to have thoroughly understood the rules of Cultivation.

However, he hadn’t been far from the building when suddenly, a streak of golden light flashed by.

Then it struck down on his smiling face.

Smack!

The terrible force twisted his cheek, followed by a kick.

The immense power was like mountains colliding.

Bang!

The task brother was sent flying backward.

Just as he regained his senses, he looked around in horror: "Who’s there?"

"Blood Refining Sect." As the words fell,

the technique of the Blood Evil Great Movement was displayed, and then a hand reached out from the air towards the person on the ground.

A grab and a pull.

Bang!

Blood fog was drawn out.

Blood sprayed forth, spreading like a fog to the surroundings.

A scream echoed.

"Elder, spare my life!"

"I can serve the elder."

Then a foot stomped down.

Crack!

The leg bone broke, and excruciating pain surged.

Screams erupted.

Perhaps due to severe blood loss,

the man fainted straight away.

With that, Gu An picked up the man’s Storage Treasure and left.

When he returned to his residence, he dissolved the Blood Evil.

The Blood Evil he teleported with could cover his Qi.

It was uncertain if the Law Enforcement Hall could trace it.

Of course, normally, there was not a trace of Blood Evil on him.

He wouldn’t be detected.

Apart from Spirit Stones, Gu An sealed some distinctive items directly into the first Star Ti Ge.

Just sealing such a small item could keep it for a long time.

The Sealing technique was truly powerful; it made many things convenient for him.

He just didn’t know if anyone would notice that he had the Age Cycle Twelve Stars.

After cleaning up the Storage Treasure, Gu An sighed.
