After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 213 - 198: So You Really Are a Thief

Gu An looked at the three people ahead, feeling somewhat emotional.

Their cultivation realms were the same as the three people on his side.

Indeed, it was suitable for a friendly contest.

However, based on their Qi, the opponents in the Late-stage Foundation Establishment and Perfect Foundation Establishment were quite profound.

And observing the flow of their Qi, they were skilled in combat.

The two people behind him had none of these capabilities.

If they took action, they would surely face disaster.

"You, the Immortal behind you looks like she has good cultivation, how about letting her compete with my junior sister?

They are both women, both at Perfect Foundation Establishment.

It wouldn’t be bullying anyone." The young man said with a smile.

Duan Jinseng, Inner Sect Disciple of the Blood Refining Sect.

His main purpose here was to humiliate Gu An.

It wasn’t about a serious fight.

Pointed at, Ruan Huan didn’t know what to do for a moment.

"Just let her fight my person, win and you can reduce the compensation by twenty percent, lose and just admit defeat, shouldn’t be hard, right?" Duan Jinseng asked, then lowered his head: "Doesn’t your sect even have this much courage?

That’s unexpected.

You should know that Cangmu Sect has beaten our Blood Refining Sect.

Could it be true that none of your disciples have the courage to respond?"

Hearing this, Ruan Huan’s face turned red; she knew she couldn’t avoid taking action this time.

But how the opponent would act, she did not know.

This place was truly a dragon’s den and a tiger’s lair; it was not easy to return unscathed.

Now she could still go up and challenge proactively, but if her team leader called her up, it would only look worse.

She had already mentally prepared since coming to Outer Peak.

If she didn’t go up, would the leader have to?

If she lost face, that was on her, but if the leader lost face, it would be even more humiliating for Cangmu Sect.

Just as she was about to speak, Gu An spoke first: "Fellow Daoist, you must be in a hurry too, let’s skip the Foundation comparison, how about we spar?"

Hearing this, the people around were surprised.

Was this person so confident?

Manager Hu naturally also saw that Duan Jinseng was deliberately trying to damage the face of Cangmu Sect.

If those at Foundation level fought, there was really not much loss of face.

But if the team leader lost, that would be a different story.

Both Shang Huo and Ruan Huan were also quite surprised.

Duan Jinseng looked at Gu An and smiled: "Us?"

"Yes," Gu An nodded.

"Okay." Duan Jinseng thought the opponent was seeking his own humiliation, so he wouldn’t be polite.

The crowd then stepped aside.

Gu An originally wanted to use a knife, but after thinking it through, realized his knife had already broken.

So, he casually pulled out a sword.

Just an ordinary Spirit Sword.

The opponent drew a blood-red knife, which looked a bit strange, but the Qi contained within it was extremely vast.

"Please," Duan Jinseng gestured invitingly: "Guests first."

"Forgive my offense." Gu An bowed, then stepped forward.

Hundred Steps Chasing Wind.

The wind howled.

Boom!

A sword slashed down.

The opponent raised his knife to block.

Clang!

A powerful force burst out, and Gu An was sent flying back, but he did not stop.

He executed Hundred Steps Chasing Wind again to continue his attack.

Using the first move of Pingqiu Three Styles.

Wind Rises.

In a blink of an eye, the two clashed again.

Blades and sword lights, back and forth.

The two moved quickly, technique bursting out in the intervals.

Thunder roared, Blood Qi surged.

Gu An’s offensive was very fast, as if he was pressing down on his opponent.

But the opponent countered every move and even managed to counterattack.

After a little while, Gu An suddenly felt the blade coming.

With a boom, the blade fell on the sword Gu An was using to block.

Rousing the surrounding Qi.

Then Gu An kept retreating.

The blade tip also landed in front of him.

Seeing this, Gu An sighed and said politely, "I am inferior in skill."

Duan Jinseng looked deeply at Gu An, finally saying:

"Fellow Daoist is skilled."

After these words, he sheathed his knife and turned to leave.

In his eyes, there was a trace of reluctance.

After he left, his companions asked why he didn’t continue to humiliate him.

He said meaningfully, "The person gave me a way out, so just leave peacefully, otherwise who embarrasses who is still uncertain."

His two companions were somewhat surprised.

By now, Gu An had already left the Blood Refining Sect.

"Manager Hu, that will be all for the escort," Gu An spoke with a smile, then took out a box from his person: "Though it’s our first meeting, I’ve long been spiritually acquainted with Elder Hu, a little snack."

Upon receiving the item, Elder Hu’s eyes narrowed with a smile:

"Daoist Gu is joking, it’s all among our people, I’ve also long admired you."

The two exchanged pleasantries and then departed separately.

On the way, Gu An controlled his sword to travel.

With the two, he quickly left.

The journey here was neither hurried nor slow, but the departure was continuously hastened.

The sooner they returned, the sooner they’d feel at ease.

Although the sect was also not very safe, it was definitely more comforting than being on the road.

On the road, Ruan Huan hesitated then said, "Leader, it was my fault this time, it led to your humiliation."

"Humiliated?" Gu An was surprised.

Was he humiliated?

The opponent didn’t really insult him.

As for winning or losing, it wasn’t so important.

To pay two-tenths less in Spirit Stones, which weren’t his own.

Why pay less?

To say "I am inferior in skill" wouldn’t have much effect.

To act with the flow, the other party got the attention they wanted, and both could save face.

Thus, this time could be considered a happiness for all.

He wouldn’t face any difficulties, and the opponent didn’t need to be overly aggressive.

Being able to resolve it this quickly showed that both parties wanted to handle the matter and didn’t want any complications.

One could say, this mission went smoother than expected.

Of course, subsequent troubles were numerous.

They had to hurry back to handle them.

Otherwise, if the Blood Refining Sect learned the truth, it could lead to other problems.

"Yes, if it were just us losing, it wouldn’t matter much, but big brother losing..." Ruan Huan bowed her head.

"So that’s it." Gu An didn’t really care about reputation.
