After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 220 - 201: From Now On, Killing People Is No Longer Restricted? (Part 2)
Chapter 220: Chapter 201: From Now On, Killing People Is No Longer Restricted? (Part 2)
When trouble arose in the morning, there’s an eighty percent chance the body was found in the afternoon.
"Manager Zhao, can you give us a hint about what kind of status Leader Gu holds in the Sect?" Chen Jin asked respectfully.
As long as it wasn’t too severe, perhaps they could still use Spirit Stones to seek forgiveness.
"What status?" Zhao Hua replied with a smile,
"All you need to know is, in the Outer Sect of Cangmu Sect, no one dares to provoke him.
Even Inner Sect members must show him some respect.
With just a word, he could decide the life and death of everyone among us."
Zhao Hua looked at the astonished crowd with disdain,
"Even if I explained, you wouldn’t understand. Let me give you some advice: avoid doing anything unnecessary.
Because the reason Leader Gu is so renowned in the Sect is not due to anything else.
Just because he killed many people in the Sect."
At that moment, Chen Jin was filled with remorse.
Slap!
He slapped himself heavily, and looking at Qiu Hua, he said, "Qiu Leader, it was indeed my Chen Family’s fault previously. I hope you can be magnanimous and overlook our transgressions."
"Qiu Leader, it was indeed my Chen Family’s fault before." Eldest Miss Chen also pleaded.
Thud!
Chen Jin’s son directly knelt down, saying,
"Qiu Leader, I am the beast here, I was foolish. Please forgive me."
Saying this, he kept slapping his own face.
Qiu Hua looked astonished, as she felt it was completely unnecessary.
*The boss wouldn’t attack the Chen Family because of her.*
Manager Zhao frowned at the Chen Family members, "This is not the place for your Chen Family to admit mistakes. Go back, it’s too embarrassing here.
No matter what, everyone must wait quietly, and not let anything disturb Senior Brother Gu."
Thus, no one dared to say anything further.
Manager Zhao then smiled at Qiu Hua, "Has Qiu Leader encountered any issues in cultivation recently? I have some knowledge in that area."
Qiu Hua: "...."
*Although she didn’t know what the boss had done, she could clearly feel that the world originally filled with malice towards her had turned kind with the boss’s arrival.*
*However, she couldn’t be lost in it, nor could she bring trouble to the boss.*
*Otherwise, she wouldn’t just harm herself, but also the boss.*
...
Gu An walked in the Spirit Tree Garden.
His perception was decent, and he could more or less sense something from the trees.
When the sun set, Gu An, guided by the moonlight, came to a tree that didn’t stand out.
It was this tree whose qi was the densest.
Without hesitation, Gu An extended his hand to summon the Blood Shadow.
It resembled a palm-sized little tiger.
He casually tossed it onto the tree.
Immediately, the Blood Tiger melded into the tree, beginning its exploration within.
"This small magic is really useful," Gu An couldn’t help but reflect.
Then he sat down cross-legged to begin watching.
When he entered below the tree, Gu An saw a small hole at the place where the roots connected.
The small hole emitted a strange aura.
As the Blood Tiger continued downward, the small hole gradually expanded.
This led to some surprise from Gu An.
He had just realized that there was actually a massive cave beneath the woods.
The cave’s surroundings were adorned with some jewels that dispelled the underground darkness.
The cave was enormous, and as the little tiger moved forward, it found there was land here, greenery, and paths.
*Is it inhabited by someone?*
Gu An became a bit nervous.
Proceeding further, he saw stairs leading upwards.
Looking up, he found a tall chair with an exceptionally handsome man sitting on it.
When the little tiger glanced at him, he slowly opened his eyes, looking back at the little tiger.
Bang!
The little tiger shattered on the spot.
Outside, Gu An opened his eyes and instinctively retreated some distance.
"Who is this?" he thought in amazement.
*This discovery had exceeded his expectations.*
*He had initially thought it was some demon at work.*
*Who would have imagined that beneath the Vajra Wood Spirit Garden lay an unknown strong presence.*
As Gu An hesitated, the tree suddenly emitted a voice, "Come in, since I’ve been discovered, shall we not have a chat?
I am on the verge of death, no match for you."
*Gu An naturally didn’t believe such words.*
He then conjured another small figure.
The small figure once again ventured into the cave through the tree and saw the same handsomely bewitching man.
"Who are you?" Gu An’s main body asked.
Because the Blood Shadow could only see, not hear or speak.
*Its accomplishment was far inferior to that of the Blood Demon Divine Monarch.*
*Someday it might be able to hear, speak.*
*Yet its power remained average.*
Upon hearing Gu An’s question, the other reclined slightly, saying, "Zuo Youyan, have you heard of me?"
The moment he heard the name, Gu An was taken aback.
*Thinking it over, so close to the Sect, with limited time left, one might do something.*
*These bits of information really matched.*
*What a shame it never crossed his mind before.*
*However, the opponent was severely wounded, even as a Primordial Spirit, they were likely slightly weaker than Luo Yutong.*
*Escape was possible.*
*Good enough.*
*But he couldn’t be careless.*
"Seems you’ve heard of me, what are the rumors?" Zuo Youyan asked with a smile.
"Your days are numbered," Gu An replied bluntly.
"Indeed, my days are numbered," Zuo Youyan continued to ask, "Is there anything else?"
"You wish to enter that secret realm," Gu An added.
"It seems you know quite a bit," Zuo Youyan said, looking down at the small figure with a smile,
"So you’re here for the token?"
Gu An shook his head, "I never intended to be your enemy, but you’ve affected the spirit wood, which is my duty to manage, I had to come."
*Gu An certainly wasn’t about to foolishly inform the other party that he also had a mission to acquire the token.*
Looking at the small figure, Zuo Youyan chuckled, "I did it on purpose, my days are limited, I urgently needed to be found, so I could settle my last words.
Initially, I hoped that someone here would discover me, but unfortunately, no one did."
Gu An remained silent; had it not been for him, no other Golden Core could have found it.
*Expecting someone from the Spirit Garden to find it, wasn’t it too demanding?*
"It doesn’t matter anymore, I just wanted to find someone," Zuo Youyan said, gazing at the small figure, suddenly asking, "Have you ever killed someone?"
"There have been conflicts," Gu An replied.
Zuo Youyan smiled and said, "Help me kill some people, and I’ll give you everything of mine, how about that?"
"Everything?" Gu An was somewhat surprised.
"Yes, everything," Zuo Youyan looked at the small figure, "You even know this method, and there’s a certain malevolence about you.
It seems the real you wouldn’t be a proper disciple.
But inside the Sect, isn’t it difficult to kill someone?
I can help you, my identity can become yours, from now on, the murders will be my doing, Zuo Youyan’s,
with nothing to do with you.
As long as you don’t go too far, it’s almost impossible for Sect members to trace you.
Though the Law Enforcement Hall is formidable, there are still murders it can’t solve.
Of course, that is unless Luo Sheng Hall launches a full investigation.
You can basically rest easy.
My identity can obfuscate the investigation."
*Gu An listened, somewhat shocked.*
*What kind of method was this?*
"What would happen if there’s a full investigation?" Gu An asked.
Zuo Youyan shook his head, "Hard to say, after all, I haven’t tried.
But you should believe what I say, or why else do you think I turned traitor?
Because someone set their sights on me."
Gu An fell silent.
*He didn’t know if what the other said was true or false.*
Looking at the time, there was still some until tomorrow.
"You don’t need to rush to make a decision, let me first talk about what I have and what I can offer you.
Then you can decide.
Of course, what I ask for is very simple, I need you to kill five people for me, and then help me meet three others.
Then with my identity, do whatever you want, murder, arson, you don’t need to worry further." Zuo Youyan said to Gu An with a smile,
"Let me first tell you about the other things I can leave for you."
With that, Zuo Youyan got up and walked toward the back of the cave.
The small figure hesitated for a moment but still followed.
*At this moment, Gu An had a thousand thoughts, considering many things.*
*What on earth was this so-called identity.*
*He couldn’t fathom it.*
*But if it truly allowed one to kill without detection, then many enemies might suddenly become virtuous.*
*But using it too much within the Sect would surely cause trouble.*
*Yet, he didn’t commit murder every day.*
*So if used well, it wouldn’t pose too significant a problem.*
*But there were still questions.*
*Better to look and see first.*
*The better the things, the greater the price to be paid.*
Following him past the stairs, Gu An saw a blackened knife embedded among a pile of stones.
*Rust-covered.*
*The Tetanus Knife?*
