Chapter 557: Gu An's Story
Chapter 557: Gu An's Story
Gu An entered the Primordial Dao Ground and saw two figures engaged in a battle of skills high above the mountains—none other than Lu Xian and Chen Chuan.
These two were the most competitive, even more so than the Blood Prison Great Sage. However, they were merely sparring and not in a heated state, so Gu An never intervened.
Watching Chen Chuan's display in the sky, Gu An felt a sense of contentment.
In his memory, he had never seen Chen Chuan so spirited and full of vigor.
He also contemplated when to help Chen Chuan regain his past life's memories, but he felt that such matters couldn't be rushed, and it would be best to let things unfold naturally.
A figure suddenly appeared beside Gu An, and it was An Xin. She looked at Gu An with a hint of resentment and said, "Master, why didn't you tell me when you left yesterday?"
"Hmm? Are you the master, or am I?"
"Oh, I just wanted to go out and explore with you."
"If you're bored, you can go to the Heaven and Earth Sect. They have many new things going on, and I'll be there to check it out too."
"Really?"
"Really."
Gu An didn't lie. As the Heavenly Spirit Grand World was reshaped, various Great Worlds began to connect, and sects started traveling across the lands. In the years to come, the entire Heavenly Spirit Grand World would welcome a vibrant and thriving atmosphere.
With the start of a new era, sects would compete for dominance, and different Great Worlds would have unique cultivation philosophies. When these ideas clashed, they would spark even more creativity.
The upcoming era would be an unprecedented golden age!
The powerful beings who survived the old era would rise to the pinnacle of influence, and the new Grand World would be stronger than ever before. The new rules of the world would nurture countless geniuses and even raise the bar for the limits of geniuses.
Gu An sensed the fortune of the world and foresaw the emergence of countless geniuses with a lifespan limit of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine years.
He eagerly anticipated this.
As the master and disciple chatted, they walked along the mountain path, and the gentle breeze blowing past also made An Xin feel a little dazed.
Unbeknownst to her, she had already lived for nine thousand five hundred and twenty-one years. She felt that her life experiences weren't particularly rich, but this also meant that she had lived a peaceful and content life.
She turned her head to look at her master by her side, and his profile calmed her heart.
She, too, felt a sense of anticipation.
Ten thousand years later, a million years later, or even ten million years later, would she still be able to follow her master?
If she did, what kind of scenery would she witness?
...
The Spring Festival had just passed in the Heaven and Earth Sect, and the mountains were bustling with the figures of cultivators coming and going. Most of them were flying towards the same direction—a giant city surrounded by mountains, with shimmering rays of light bursting forth like a mirage. It had the grandeur of an immortal city.
This city was the main city of the Heaven and Earth Sect. Since the reshaping of the Grand World, a thousand years had passed, and the Heaven and Earth Sect had seized the opportunity to develop rapidly. They had not only established themselves as the righteous leaders of the Nine Spirit Continent but had also built a reputation in the surrounding seas.
This year, the Heaven and Earth Sect planned to host the Hundred Sects Conference, inviting over a hundred righteous sects from both within and outside the continent to discuss and exchange cultivation methods. This was the first time the Heaven and Earth Sect had held such a grand event, making their main city exceptionally lively.
Inside the city, the Bookstore was packed with people.
Under An Xin's guidance, the structure of the Heaven and Earth Sect was almost identical to that of the Taixuan Sect. However, the two sects were located far apart, and for the time being, they had no interactions.
"Why is the Heaven and Earth Supreme sold out again? Doesn't the Heaven and Earth Sect have a deep foundation? Why not print more copies?"
A young male disciple stood at the counter, staring at the Bookstore disciple and asking with a glare.
The Bookstore disciple spread his hands helplessly and said, "Yelling at me won't help, brother. I'm just in charge of sales."
The young male disciple glared at him and left with a flick of his sleeves.
Immediately after, another disciple approached the counter, inquiring about the book "Heaven and Earth Supreme."
At this moment, on the second floor of the Bookstore, Gu An, dressed in blue, was standing in front of a bookshelf, flipping through books. Tian Yao'er approached and glanced at the book's title, unable to resist rolling her eyes.
"Young Master, is this book worth reading?"
Outside the cultivation ground, Gu An had instructed that he should not be addressed as 'Master.' Tian Yao'er didn't quite understand, but she felt that calling him 'Young Master' was quite nice, at least it made their relationship more equal. This often led her to daydream.
Gu An looked at the "Nine Spirit Heroic Chronicles" in his hand and chuckled softly, "As long as it's a book, it's worth taking a look."
Since he started writing within the Heaven and Earth Sect, he had sparked a novel craze. The "Nine Spirit Heroic Chronicles" was also a story about a protagonist's adventures, and the writing style was clearly imitating his.
Hearing Gu An's words, Tian Yao'er rolled her eyes and then turned to leave. She wanted to explore the city, and with her Loose Immortal cultivation base, she was considered a senior cultivator within the Heaven and Earth Sect, so there was no need to worry about her safety, especially with Gu An around.
After Tian Yao'er left, Gu An continued reading.
Before long, two female figures ascended to the second floor—Li Xuan Yu and Tang Cai.
Ever since they were saved by An Xin, they had been living on the Nine Spirit Continent. Later, seeing the Heaven and Earth Sect's growing influence, they proactively joined, and now they were also disciples of the sect.
In fact, with their status, they could have been elders, but they didn't want to be too closely tied to the Heaven and Earth Sect, as they knew they would eventually have to leave.
"Sister, why did we come here?" Tang Cai asked in confusion. The Bookstore was filled with miscellaneous books, and if they wanted to seek cultivation methods, they could go to the Scripture Hall.
Li Xuan Yu replied, "Let's take a walk around. Your mind is restless, and this will be a good opportunity for you to temper yourself."
Her gaze swept across the second floor, scanning each disciple, as if searching for something.
She looked around but couldn't find what she was looking for, and disappointment flashed in her eyes.
Tang Cai heard Li Xuanyu's words and was immediately dissatisfied. She had just closed her cultivation for eight hundred years, and yet she was still so restless?
Just as she was about to refute, she saw Li Xuanyu walking towards the stairs on the third floor.
"I'm not restless. These years..." Tang Cai caught up with Li Xuanyu and explained.
"Senior Sister Li."
A voice came, causing Li Xuanyu to stop in her tracks. She turned around and saw Gu An holding a book and walking between two rows of bookshelves.
After not seeing each other for ten thousand years, Li Xuanyu felt a bit dazed. The image of Gu An in her memory seemed like two different people.
In her memory, Gu An was cautious and restrained, but the current Gu An was handsome and had an extraordinary temperament, as if he were an immortal in the mortal world.
Tang Cai looked at Gu An, her eyes filled with suspicion.
She was captivated by Gu An at first sight, thinking what a handsome man he was.
She was only evaluating him in her mind and didn't fall in love with him at first sight. She had traveled the world and met countless people, but she had never seen a cultivator with a temperament that could rival Gu An's.
Even her beloved, Li Ya, couldn't compare to Gu An in terms of temperament. Li Ya attracted her more with his boldness and righteousness.
Gu An approached Li Xuanyu and asked with a smile, "Senior Sister Li, don't you recognize me?"
Li Xuanyu came back to her senses and sighed, "Of course I recognize you. To be honest, the reason I came here is to find you. After all, your disciple is also on this continent, and everything about the Qiankun Sect is extremely similar to the Taixuan Sect. I suspect it has something to do with you."

S
The reason she wanted to find Gu An was also to thank him in person.
She wasn't stupid. An Xin saving them must have been at Gu An's request.
"I don't have such great abilities. Why don't we find an inn and catch up?" Gu An asked with a smile, and Li Xuanyu naturally had no objections.
Gu An didn't ignore Tang Cai either. He introduced himself to her.
After a few pleasantries, the three of them went downstairs.
Tang Cai's expression became strange when she saw Gu An spending money to buy the Nine Ling Heroic Chronicles.
After learning that Gu An was An Xin's master, she felt a deep respect for him. However, she never expected such a great cultivator to read such miscellaneous books.
Shouldn't great cultivators delve into the Great Dao?
Li Xuanyu, on the other hand, didn't mind. She had known that Gu An liked to read books.
Seeing that Gu An still had this hobby, she felt a sense of closeness, as if the distance between them had narrowed.
Then, the three of them found the nearest inn and sat down. After asking about each other's experiences, Gu An steered the conversation towards Li Ya, as Li Ya was the connection between the three of them.
When Li Ya was mentioned, Tang Cai immediately became excited because Li Ya's reputation had already spread throughout the Nine Ling Continent.
Li Ya held the Nine Absolutes Sacred Heart Sword, and although he wasn't considered the number one sword cultivator in the world yet, his strength was already very powerful. Moreover, he loved to travel and explore, so his reputation had spread far and wide.
"I heard that he made an enemy of the Yao Guang Sheng Sect's Holy Son and is being hunted down by them. I want to help him, but my sister said that I would only be a burden if I went. Gu An, you're Li Ya's junior brother. Can you help him?" Tang Cai looked at Gu An, her tone filled with pleading.
She had experienced many things with Li Ya and knew how difficult it was behind his glorious reputation.
He must have suffered serious injuries again, otherwise, he wouldn't have made such an enemy.
Before Gu An could speak, Li Xuanyu said coldly, "Tang Cai, let's not bother Junior Brother Gu about Li Ya's matters. Those are his own choices. If Junior Brother Gu can save us, we already owe him a huge favor. How dare we trouble him further?"
"But..."
"There are no buts!"
Li Xuanyu spoke without leaving room for argument, causing Tang Cai to nod reluctantly.
Gu An looked at Li Xuanyu's expression and found it amusing. He replied, "The Yao Guang Sheng Sect is indeed powerful. It's said that there's a Marvelous Technique Spirit Immortal in the sect, and a Marvelous Technique Spirit Immortal is at the Sixth Heaven of the Immortal Dao. It's not easy to provoke them."
The Sixth Heaven of the Immortal Dao! Li Xuanyu's expression became unnatural, and Tang Cai grew tense.
Gu An comforted them, "Don't worry. Senior Brother Li holds the Divine Mirage City, one of the Immortal Treasures, and the Nine Absolutes Sacred Heart Sword. He has great fortune, and he will surely turn bad luck into good. That Nine Absolutes Sacred Heart Sword is the number one divine sword in the world."
Hearing his words, Li Xuanyu could only nod, while Tang Cai fell into endless worry.
After that, Gu An chatted about the Qiankun Sect's Hundred Sects Conference, but although Li Xuanyu was still responding, the atmosphere had noticeably cooled down.
Half a shichen later, Gu An bid farewell to the two women.
Li Xuanyu and Tang Cai stood at the entrance of the inn, seeing Gu An off.
"Sister, he's Li Ya's junior brother, so he's also from the Taixuan Sect. Why did he come alone to such a distant place?" Tang Cai asked curiously.
Li Xuanyu looked at Gu An's departing figure and said, "Perhaps he carries a burden that makes him stay far away from his homeland. When one lives in this world, they often don't have control over their own fate."
Upon hearing this, Tang Cai felt that Gu An's departing figure was filled with stories, just like Li Ya.
At that moment, they saw a stunningly beautiful woman, who could topple nations, quickly walking out of the crowd and embracing Gu An's arm. The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked, their actions extremely intimate. Soon, they disappeared from sight.
Tang Cai opened her mouth as if to ask something, but she didn't say it out loud.
Li Xuanyu also remained silent.
