Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses

Chapter 424: Chapter 423 I Am Sword Venerable Fudao



With the Primordial Immortal King turning to dust, the whole world seemed to suddenly quiet down.

Supreme Sect's cultivators were all left staring at Gu An, their eyes brimming with shock, while Di Xie, standing before Gu An, was dumbfounded, his body rigid.

The Nine-Finger Divine Lord and Shen Xinzi were also as still as wooden chickens, unable to believe their own eyes.

Gu An's face was expressionless, and there was a slight sense of regret in his heart.

Could even a powerful Free Immortal not break through his Protecting Tao Divine Essence? He did not strike back just now. The Primordial Immortal King was destroyed by his own power and the Protecting Tao Divine Essence, both body and soul, completely obliterated. Regrettably, since the Primordial Immortal King was not a living being, Gu An was unable to seize any life span.

More and more figures appeared out of thin air, all of them Great Cultivators from the Supreme Sect. Looking at the street where Gu An was standing, they all frowned as the strong presence of the Primordial Immortal King still lingered in the air; looking at the mess on the street, they couldn't help imagining the recent tumult.

Gu An raised his right hand, streaks of black air appeared out of nowhere, burrowing into the center of his palm. He then casually put his hand into his sleeve, and nobody saw what it truly

was.

He looked down at Di Xie and asked, "Brother Di, are you alright?"

Di Xie came back to his senses. With Gu An's help, he shakily stood up. Looking at Gu An, awe was difficult to hide in his eyes.

"You..."

Di Xie's lips quivered as he wanted to ask about Gu An's identity but feared giving offense. "Sword Venerable Fudao!"

A cry of shock came from afar. As the words were spoken, the quiet was broken, and noise rose from all around, rapidly turning into an uproar.

Di Xie also guessed this.

The Primordial Immortal King claimed to possess the Nine Heavens of Immortal Path cultivation level. Who else could slay an entity with such mastery within the Supreme Sect, if not Sword Venerable Fudao?

He turned out to be Sword Venerable Fudao...

Di Xie looked at Gu An, whose smile was mild. His Daoist heart could not calm down.

Recalling the years of interaction with Gu An, he felt ashamed and frightened. Thankfully, he had never looked down on Gu An, as he had never been disrespectful in their exchanges.

Gu An couldn't hear his inner voice but could probably guess it.

For Gu An, it was just amusing; there was no feeling of being slapped in the face. He always enjoyed socializing and never demanded too much. A smile from others was already nice; there was no need to ask for more.

"Is he Sword Venerable Fudao?"

"No, it's more likely that Sword Venerable Fudao protected him."

"Indeed, we didn't see him take action; it must have been Sword Venerable Fudao who acted." "That man is Gu An, the Valley Master of the Third Medicine Valley. Go, chess, and gomoku were all invented by him. I know him; he definitely isn't Sword Venerable Fudao."

"I've also known him for hundreds of years. He is extremely kind-hearted. Perhaps he has met Sword Venerable Fudao, who is incognito, so Sword Venerable Fudao came to his aid."

"I wonder if that guy just now is dead."

As more and more disciples began to talk, the tone quickly changed. With the voices of people familiar with Gu An speaking up, many believed that it was Sword Venerable Fudao who had protected Gu An, not that he was Sword Venerable Fudao himself.

Of course, some still thought that Gu An was Sword Venerable Fudao, because he was too composed in the face of the Primordial Immortal King.

Even if he was not Sword Venerable Fudao, he must have a close relationship with him; otherwise, he could not be so fearless.

Lv Baitian, Ji Hantian, Gu Zong, and other high-ranking members also appeared one after another. Upon seeing Gu An, Lv Baitian breathed a sigh of relief. He gave Ji Hantian an instruction and then appeared beside Gu An.

"Let's talk somewhere else," Lv Baitian said in a low voice, glancing at Di Xie with a look full of mystery.

Gu An nodded slightly, then followed Lv Baitian away.

As Di Xie watched Gu An's retreating figure, he was about to speak when two figures appeared out of nowhere in front of him.

"Come with us," one of them said coldly. The oppressive feeling of the Immortal Path Realm enveloped Di Xie, leaving him no choice but to comply.

The street was quickly sealed off, the spectators were dispersed, the celestial phenomenon above and the remaining clouds gradually disappeared, and the snow continued to fall. Streams of shooting stars lit up the sky, figures emerging from the Reincarnation Vortex. They were descending into the Great Heavenly Spirit Land everywhere.

"Is it over? What happened?"

The Ancient Immortal Emperor asked, furrowing his brows, still alone with the Yang Xian Emperor in the great hall.

Yang Xian Emperor also sensed that the presence of the Primordial Immortal King had abruptly ceased. He pondered and said, "Probably Sword Venerable Fudao made a move." The place of the Primordial Immortal King's descent, Yang Xian Emperor would not forget.

That was a place that brought shame to the Immortal Dynasty!

Slain by Sword Venerable Fudao, a powerful Heavenly Spirit; the Immortal Dynasty dared not seek revenge, a situation that naturally caused extreme dissatisfaction within its ranks, towards the higher-ups, and towards Yang Xian Emperor.

Although Yang Xian Emperor was wary of Sword Venerable Fudao, he did not expect Sword Venerable Fudao to cause the momentum of the Primordial Immortal King to vanish so

quickly.

Taicang Continent...

What exactly happened there?

Yang Xian Emperor suddenly wanted to take a trip there.

At this moment, not only he but even the Holy Minister of the Holy Court wished to visit the

Supreme Sect.

Such a domineering Primordial Immortal King; it was not likely that he would have subdued his presence upon arrival. It was highly possible he had been suppressed.

"Sword Venerable Fudao, who exactly are you, a sacred being, and what is the purpose of hiding your identity?"

The Holy Minister sat on his sacred chair, his gaze deep in thought.

The Holy Gods in the hall were also discussing the matter. The sudden disappearance of the aura of the Primordial Immortal King made them uneasy, regardless of the outcome.

An hour later, Gu An leisurely returned to the Third Medicine Valley. Just as he got back, he was surrounded by a throng of disciples.

News about what had happened in the Outer Gate City spread rapidly; Gu An's name and that of Sword Venerable Fudao were widely circulated, though stories varied. However, one thing was certain, Gu An was very likely related to Sword Venerable Fudao.

The disciples had heard before that their master's cultivation level was extraordinary. Now hearing this, how could they not be excited?

Facing their inquiries, Gu An said helplessly, "I must confess, I am Sword Venerable Fudao. I have always interacted with you in the guise of an ordinary Valley Master of Medicine Valley, but in return, you have not shown enough reverence for me; this intervention was

unexpected."

As soon as these words were uttered, they immediately provoked exclamations from the

disciples.

You Yingying in the crowd couldn't help but snort, "What an act."

She also harbored doubts in her heart. Previously, Shen Xinzi had wanted to kill her, but then suddenly stopped. Could it be related to Gu An?

Is Gu An truly Sword Venerable Fudao?

That should not be the case; she had heard from Xuan Tianyi about his life story, and he was

just over seven hundred years old now.

At such an age, how could he be Sword Venerable Fudao?

His flippant tone made it impossible for her to speculate wildly.

Not just her, the other disciples also felt that way, always feeling that Gu An seemed to be

joking.

Gu An did not elaborate further, letting them guess. Was it true or false? Letting a bit of suspense remain in life was rather interesting.

It's worth mentioning that previously, Lv Baitian had assured him that he would find a way to

suppress this

incident.

Lv Baitian thought that Gu An's intervention was to protect the Supreme Sect.

Of course, he had more reasons hidden in his heart.

He feared the exposure of Sword Venerable Fudao's true identity, which was also the thought

of the Supreme Sect's core leadership.

If other powers learned of Sword Venerable Fudao's true identity, that would not be good.

They were not afraid of Sword Venerable Fudao getting into trouble, but rather someone

enticing him away.

The Holy Court was the best example!

Gu An freed himself from the disciples' entanglement and went to his own loft, and then was

properly blocked by Ji Xiaoyu.

"Was that commotion caused by you?" Ji Xiaoyu asked.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Gu An shook his head and said, "Somebody fell from the sky, wanted to steal my crown, he

was about to chop at me, then suddenly, he vanished."

As he spoke, he patted his chest, showing a scared expression.

Ji Xiaoyu, pensive, couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity with Gu An's description.

Seeing her distracted, Gu An didn't continue talking and entered alone.

When Gu An closed the door, Ji Xiaoyu was startled awake. She turned her head to look at the second-floor door, her eyes filled with disbelief.

"Could it be the Heaven and Earth Path Gang? Even so, to think of extinguishing such an

existence..."

Ji Xiaoyu was filled with shock, Gu An becoming incredibly mysterious in her mind.

As time passed, the incident at the Outer Gate City quickly spread, and even with the efforts of

the Supreme Sect to suppress it, the name couldn't be stopped; various powers heard of one

name.

Gu An!

After returning to his room, Gu An took up the Green Hero Travelogue.

He could feel that the followers of the Primordial Immortal King had all descended to the Mortal World, and they were going to bring disaster. He had no interventionist ideas. Because this disaster would cause the Immortal Dynasty and the Holy Court to temporarily cease hostilities, which was actually a good thing.

The Immortal Dynasty and Holy Court's war affected even more creatures. Moreover, with Gu An's current insight into the laws of fate and karma, he could see farther

calamities. No matter how he intervened, the fate of the Great Heavenly Spirit Land would never disappear permanently. There is birth and death, fortune and misfortune; these are the laws of all things in Great Heaven and Earth.

After the extinguishing of the Primordial Immortal King, the winter snow fell even heavier.

In the following days, more and more people came to the Third Medicine Valley for Go games

and visits to see Gu An. Gu An didn't meet with strangers; he continued to linger in his various Medicine Valleys, harvesting medicinal herbs.

When he went to the Nianchu Cave, Tian Yao'er and the other two girls inquired about the

roaring of the Primordial Immortal King. He comforted them briefly and then began to give them guidance in their cultivation.

Life was quite busy. Apart from picking medicinal herbs, Gu An also had to teach Tian Yao'er,

Tianqing, Tian Bai, and An Xin. Aside from that, he had to take time to cultivate and nurture

his body.

In the blink of an eye.

The spring festival arrived.

On the morning of the Spring Festival, Gu An made a trip to the Inner Sect City, drinking with

Wu Jue at an inn while listening to a storyteller talk about overseas matters.

"That Immortal Lord Qin is said to be an ancient Great Power from ten million years ago, resurrected from Reincarnation, needing to devour the souls of countless immortal cultivators to reconstruct his body..."

The storyteller's tone was filled with emotional provocation; even Gu An and Wu Jue were

captivated by his words.

Wu Jue turned his head to look at Gu An, curiously asking, "What exactly is your relationship with Sword Venerable Fudao?"

Gu An glanced at him and said, "I am Sword Venerable Fudao. What do you mean by what

relation?" "How could that be, I've watched you grow from the Foundation Establishment Realm to today. If you are Sword Venerable Fudao, then I must be the Yang Xian Emperor." Wu Jue

exclaimed with wide eyes.

Gu An's gaze followed to the stairway entrance; someone was coming up. [Yang Xian Emperor (Free Immortal Realm Level 1): 6,908,922/50,000,000/100,000,000]
