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

Chapter 403: Chapter 403 Heavenly Dao Merit



"Is that so? Then I'll wait for you to help me," Jiang Qiong said to Gu An, her smile all crinkles.

Gu An glanced at her and said, "Hold on, your real purpose isn't targeting the Ji Family again, is it?"

"Hmph, with all the people coming and going, aren't you afraid of being overheard by the Ji Family?" Jiang Qiong sneered.

There were indeed many people on the street, but there were just as many who talked big like Gu An, so he was not afraid at all.

"Within the Supreme Sect, who would dare to make things difficult for me?" Gu An declared with feigned arrogance, then immediately flashed a smile and greeted someone who was approaching.

Watching the adaptable Gu An, Jiang Qiong couldn't help but want to laugh.

After Gu An's acquaintance had moved on, Jiang Qiong teased, "You know, I've heard that Sect Master Lv wants to groom you as the next sect leader. I thought he was joking before, but now it seems you really might have a shot."

Gu An shook his head and said, "Forget about it, he hasn't mentioned this for many years."

Since the integration of the overseas cultivators, Lv Baitian rarely brought up the position of sect leader. It wasn't that he was reluctant to let go, but rather, he increasingly found himself not his own master, with the power of the sect leader being diluted. Moreover, appointing Gu An as sect leader would only bring trouble to Gu An.

"You're just not diligent in your cultivation," Jiang Qiong said irritably.

Over six hundred years ago, she had noticed Gu An's extraordinary talent. Unfortunately, no matter how much she persuaded him, the lad was content to linger in the Medicine Garden, idly while away his days, fond of reading leisurely books, unwilling to cultivate diligently.

"What do you know? My approach is also a form of cultivation. You'll understand sooner or later; Qi Absorption Cultivation is the most foolish method."

"Should I look forward to that?"

"Don't pretend to forget when the time comes."

"You seem to understand women quite well."

"I have no choice, I've gained many of my connections thanks to this face of mine. Naturally, I understand women after interacting with so many of them."

"I really want to seal you in a coffin for a lifetime."
