After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 225 - 204: Is There Really a Peak Master Taking Disciples?
Chapter 225: Chapter 204: Is There Really a Peak Master Taking Disciples?
"Senior sister, if you’re planning to train your focus, you can do it at home."
Gu An politely said, "There are a lot of people outside, so it’s easy to get disturbed."
"You’re right." The little girl nodded and said,
"But this time I’m out to find you."
"Me?" Gu An was slightly surprised, "What for?"
"After much consideration, I still find you the most suspicious." The little girl said seriously, "I think you’re the one who stole the stuff. It couldn’t be anyone else."
"Huh?" Gu An was a bit astonished, "Why is it me again?"
"Because no one else is a suspect. It’s best you accept my interrogation now." The little girl said seriously.
Gu An said confidently, "Ask away, senior sister."
Upon hearing this, the little girl asked earnestly, "Did you steal my sword? A blue sword."
"No..." Gu An was about to say no when he froze.
*What does she mean?*
*A blue sword?*
*The sword that Mian Tiao stole?*
Gu An felt a bit guilty for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.
Because he really didn’t steal it. freewebnøvel.coɱ
"If I didn’t, then I didn’t." Gu An added.
"Besides the sword, did you steal any girl’s things?" The little girl stared intently at Gu An.
*Girl’s things?*
*A bellyband?*
"No such thing." This time, Gu An lacked confidence.
*Looks like she really is the owner?*
"Are you lying?" The little girl said cleverly, "How can a thief claim they are a thief? They all say they didn’t take anything, just like you; it completely fits the thief profile."
"But good people also say they didn’t steal." Gu An retorted.
*He feared she might actually see through him, but luckily this girl wasn’t as smart as Chu Meng.*
*Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.*
*Stealing things is one thing, but stealing a bellyband...*
*If that got out, his reputation would be ruined.*
*Although he didn’t care much, a reputation like that would still make it hard to hold his head up high.*
*Gu An sighed inwardly, but he felt helpless.*
*Could it be that Mian Tiao stole it?*
*Without their owner’s instructions, would a fish steal such things?*
*No one would believe it.*
*Gu An tried to imagine, being looked at with contempt was fine, but being looked at with prejudice was uncomfortable.*
"Senior sister, you can come in and search," Gu An said seriously, "If you don’t find anything, then you can’t suspect me anymore."
The little girl nodded, "Then I’ll go in and take a look."
Just after going in, the little girl focused on the tree and said seriously, "This tree isn’t normal, there’s something inside."
Gu An was extremely shocked; he hadn’t expected her to see through even that.
*Was she really that powerful?*
But he quickly came up with a reason, "This is ancient wisdom,
maybe it can clear my name.
An ancient being wouldn’t lie randomly, right?"
"Why not? Old people can lie, too. Ever heard of ’tricking children’?" The little girl spoke disdainfully.
Gu An: "..."
*He felt awkward for a moment.*
*Sometimes he really thought she was just a child.*
At this moment, the little girl walked over, looked at the tree, and said,
"Tree old man, tree old man."
Gu An quietly watched on.
After that, a blood-colored eagle landed on a branch, looked at the little girl, and said,
"Little girl, are you calling me?"
"Did he steal my things?" The little girl asked, pointing at Gu An.
The blood-colored eagle looked at Gu An, pondered for a moment, and said,
"Can I ask you a few questions?"
"Ask away." The little girl said seriously.
"How old are you?" the Blood Demon Divine Monarch asked.
"Five years old." The little girl replied.
"How long has it been since you grew taller?" the Blood Demon Divine Monarch asked again.
"I’m growing taller every day; everyone says I grow fast." The little girl said proudly.
The Blood Demon Divine Monarch turned to Gu An and said, "Brother, step back a little."
Gu An was a bit puzzled, "Why?"
"Someone needs to save face," the Blood Demon Divine Monarch said.
Gu An had no choice but to step back a bit.
*It looked like he couldn’t hear their conversation.*
*But he could hear it all.*
At this point, the Blood Demon Divine Monarch looked at the little girl and said seriously, "You’re a bit of a dwarf."
As soon as the words fell, a massive power burst forth, and the little girl yelled, "You’re talking nonsense."
She was about to strike the Blood Demon Divine Monarch.
The nearby Gu An was startled.
*No wonder he was told to step back, this was life-threatening.*
However, the Blood Demon Divine Monarch looked at the little girl with a calm expression and spoke again, "I can cure it."
As soon as the words were spoken, the power aura dissipated.
The former fury completely vanished.
*If it wasn’t for the rustling of Gu An’s clothes,*
*he would have thought everything just now was an illusion.*
The little girl looked at the Blood Demon Divine Monarch and said softly, "Tree God Doctor, help me."
Gu An: "...."
*He didn’t know how to comment for a moment.*
*So this child had such troubles.*
*He thought she was really this small.*
"Or perhaps she just grows a little slower," he thought.
"You go back for today, come find me again tomorrow," the Blood Demon Divine Monarch said seriously, "Remember to bring some Spiritual Liquid; you know curing diseases requires great energy."
"I understand." The little girl nodded seriously.
Then she left without looking back.
She didn’t even glance at Gu An.
*Seems like finding the thief was no longer a priority.*
Thus, Gu An breathed a sigh of relief.
But whether the Blood Demon Divine Monarch could really heal, he did not know.
If he couldn’t, he’d have to pretend he could.
If he bluffed it out, he had to make sure to follow through.
*Otherwise, sooner or later, his secret would be exposed.*
"Brother, how did I do?" The Blood Demon Divine Monarch asked in a flattering tone.
Gu An nodded, "Very well."
Afterward, he went out for a while, and when he returned, there was a crimson tree in his hands.
He placed it casually by the Divine Tree.
Upon seeing this tree, the Blood Demon Divine Monarch exclaimed, "Brother, this is the Blood Spirit Tree, a treasure. Using the Blood Evil Big Movement with it can form a blood avatar."
