Chapter 388: The Final Path
Chapter 388: The Final Path
About half a month after Lu Baitian and his companion left, rumors began to spread within Taixuan Sect.
A group of insane disciples were running amok in the Inner City, claiming that Sheng Family's genius had bullied Wu Jue, but in the end, he was killed in retaliation.
The murder of a fellow disciple by Wu Jue had already caused quite a stir, and now these disciples were describing a different situation, which naturally attracted criticism. Even though these disciples were quickly restrained, the news still spread rapidly.
After some curious disciples investigated, it turned out that these insane disciples were witnesses to Wu Jue's murder of a fellow disciple, but now they had gone mad and were describing a different situation from their previous testimonies. This forced people to consider the possibility of a conspiracy.
Some suspected that someone backing Wu Jue had taken action, while others thought that these disciples couldn't bear the psychological pressure and went crazy, revealing the truth. Some even believed that they had been poisoned by the Sheng Family, forcing them to lie, and now the poison had taken effect, driving them insane, and they were using their last shred of sanity to reveal the truth.
With various speculations, Wu Jue once again became the focus of attention within Taixuan Sect.
The matter had become so big that even Ye Lan and Zhen Qin from the branch sect came to find Gu An, fearing that he might be implicated.
"The Sheng Family is really ruthless. They even poisoned people. Tsk tsk, even the branch sect is spreading this news. Wu Jue is the genius who represents Taixuan Sect, but he doesn't have a family background. If this matter is not handled well, it will discourage all the disciples without family backgrounds." Zhen Qin clicked her tongue in amazement.
Ye Lan, on the other hand, remained calm and said, "Which sect can remain peaceful for hundreds of years without any problems? The Dao Support Sword Sage hasn't appeared for many years, perhaps this is also the families testing his attitude."
Gu An held a book, while his Divine Sense was focused on the distant ocean.
The Deep Sea Carp was being chased and hunted by a group of demonic creatures, and the situation was critical.
This fellow had also gone through eighty-one tribulations and was just one tribulation away from completion.
Zhen Qin shrugged, unconcerned, and said, "Let it be. It's about time for some chaos."
Gu An looked at her and asked, "What about you? Are you still causing trouble for the Datura Ghost Mother?"
At the mention of the Datura Ghost Mother, Zhen Qin's smile disappeared. She coldly snorted and said, "I'm no match for her. I can't trouble Senior Jiang anymore. I can only cultivate first."
Due to her hatred for Su Han, Zhen Qin's cultivation motivation had always been high, and her Innate Reincarnation Technique was quite effective.
"That's good. Senior Jiang Qiong also has it tough. After saving you, she must feel awkward facing her vice-sect master." Gu An continued the conversation.

When the topic of reincarnation was brought up, Gu An thought of Xiao Chuan. Xiao Chuan had been in the reincarnation vortex for so long and still hadn't reincarnated. At least within the Heavenly Spirit Great World, Gu An temporarily stopped investigating his Dao Annihilation Life Seal.
Could he have reincarnated into another Great World?
Was the Divine Mind True Immortal this powerful?
"If there truly is reincarnation, I'm quite excited about it. But what if there's no reincarnation at all? If everyone is reincarnated, where do the original souls come from?" Ye Lan raised a doubt.
The two women discussed reincarnation and intentionally avoided talking about Wu Jue.
Gu An occasionally interjected, and time passed quickly.
As evening approached, the two women left.
Gu An then departed from the Third Medicine Valley, first heading to Mystery Valley, planning to stay for an hour before going to Subtle Spirit Palace.
Upon arriving at Mystery Valley, he saw the disciples gathered together, listening to an older disciple talking about the Sheng Family, while Jiang Shi stood in front of a tree, listening attentively.
The Sheng Family's matter had caused a huge uproar, with disciples of all levels discussing it.
The reason for the disciples' frenzy was not directly related to the Sheng Family, but rather, it was Gu An's doing. He used the power of cause and effect to trouble the disciples, making them repeatedly witness the tragedy of that Sheng Family genius. After a long time, unable to escape the illusion, they eventually broke down.
As for the truth about the martial technique, it was also guided by Gu An using the power of cause and effect.
At this very moment, the Sheng Family's internal situation was in chaos, with the higher-ups in a state of panic, discussing how to handle the matter.
Gu An approached the disciples, joining them in their gossip and discussions.
Upon seeing Gu An, Jiang Shi immediately sat down, showing great caution.
Decades had passed, and he still longed to cultivate with Gu An, even though he had already reached the Core Formation Realm. He had no intention of leaving Mystery Valley.
The more Jiang Shi yearned for Gu An's guidance, the more reluctant Gu An became to accept him.
Gu An had analyzed Jiang Shi's cause and effect, and there was no sign of any grand cultivator plotting against him. The more this was the case, the more uneasy Gu An felt.
Why was Jiang Shi so certain about him?
Could it be that the Celestial Will was setting up a tribulation for him?
Jiang Shi was unaware of Gu An's thoughts. The reason he stayed in Mystery Valley was his fear of being hunted down by the royal Li Family. Without the strength to protect himself, he didn't want to leave Mystery Valley.

After chatting for a long time, Gu An finally stood up and left, and the disciples dispersed as well.
As Gu An disappeared into the forest, Jiang Shi turned and quickly approached Lu Jiujia, whispering, "Senior Brother, it's so late. Where is Master going? Why is he always going out?"
This confusion had been bothering Jiang Shi for a hundred years, and he had wanted to ask for a long time.
Lu Jiujia glanced at him and said, "Don't inquire about your Master's whereabouts."
Jiang Shi immediately apologized upon hearing this.
Lu Jiujia didn't pay him any more attention and continued walking towards his house.
After sitting in meditation on his bed, he looked at the bright moon outside the window, and a hint of melancholy appeared in his eyes.
Recently, he had been feeling increasingly powerless, with an indescribable sense of fatigue. It was as if every time he closed his eyes, his life would be over.
He began to understand that the so-called 'great limit' was indeed something one could sense.
His time might be running out, and he needed to consider how to handle his affairs.
If he were to die, who should he leave the position of senior apprentice to? Who could serve his senior brother as well as he did?
He first ruled out Jiang Shi; he would never choose a disciple his senior brother disliked to succeed him.
On the other side, Gu An arrived at the Subtle Spirit Palace and saw that the Deep Sea Carp had finally escaped danger and hidden in a cave at the bottom of the sea. After confirming its safety, it fainted.
"You managed to escape a calamity. Let your final journey be a little easier," Gu An muttered to himself. Then, he flicked his hand, and a stream of mana passed through the ocean, entering the Deep Sea Carp's body in a way that mortals couldn't comprehend, helping it recover its injuries and demonic energy.
After that, he started picking herbs.
Once he finished collecting the herbs, he didn't leave but stayed in the Subtle Spirit Palace to read books.
The Subtle Spirit Palace stored a vast collection of books, all of which were Gu An's treasured works. Whenever he wanted to be alone, he would come here.
Third Shift!
