Go to become a god, let me marry into the sect

#350 - Restart of the Temple of the Gods

Azurewood Sect.

Above the Main Hall.

Qu Youdao and the others sat in the hall, looking at the rankings for the month.

"The First Institute hasn't been doing well for the past two months; the rankings have dropped significantly." Qu Youdao sighed, "It seems that since the Dean came back, they've lost their competitiveness."

"He's deliberately controlling the rankings." Yan Ruxue said with a smile, "It seems he doesn't want to be the one chosen for the marriage alliance."

"Why couldn't it be that the First Institute simply lacks foundation now?" Situ Baichuan asked.

This book is first published on the entire network by 𝕥 𝕨 𝕜 𝕒 𝕟 . 𝕔 𝕠 𝕞

"It can't be that the lack of foundation just happened to coincide with his return, so he must not want to be the one in the marriage alliance, not wanting to be with the royal princess." Yan Ruxue asserted.

"What do you think he's thinking?" Qu Youdao asked.

"Maybe he feels he's not good enough?" Yan Ruxue pondered for a moment and said, "In every aspect, he's inferior to the royal princess, so once married, he would inevitably be at a disadvantage.

This isn't what he wants, so even if this path is a shortcut for many people, he doesn't want it.

Don't let his age fool you; he has pride in his heart."

"How pitiful." At this moment, the compassionate fairy spoke, "He just doesn't want to be caught up in the royal vortex; he just wants to live well, yet you insist on misunderstanding him as being proud."

"Next time, can you say it while crying?" Yan Ruxue said unpleasantly.

Qu Youdao shook his head, "Whether it's pride or a desire to stay away from trouble, he can't escape it anyway.

The results will be out this year, and if he doesn't make any major mistakes, he will definitely be in the top three."

Situ Baichuan said with a smile, "Yes, at least I can enter the final round of competition; I just don't know if the final decision will be made by the royal family or the princess.

Besides, there's still one person to get past."

"That crazy woman?" Qu Youdao didn't care, "When the list of rankings is out, send her a copy. If the First Institute is eliminated by her, then there's nothing we can do. This marriage alliance involves her people.

It would be difficult if she doesn't nod in agreement.

I wonder if she will personally choose someone."

"After the marriage alliance results are out, will the Sixth Institute continue to exist?" Yan Ruxue asked.

"Of course." Qu Youdao said with a smile, "Haven't you noticed? Most of the time, the trouble is caused by the Sixth Institute.

We always need a place to have some connection with other sects.

It also aligns with the Sect Leader's principle of valuing harmony.

We capture people, and the Sixth Institute lets them redeem themselves; isn't that reasonable?

As for whether the various leaders can hold their positions, that depends on their abilities.

They've already been given opportunities to grow these days.

Once the results are out next year, if they still can't hold their positions,

Then it's simply a lack of strength."

"What about the First Institute?" Situ Baichuan picked up the sword beside him, wiping it as he asked, "He's a spy from the Reincarnation lineage and the one who stole the treasures of the Celestial Maiden lineage. The Fire Phoenix Clan should also love to find trouble with him.

What if he's not capable enough and gets driven out?"

The group exchanged glances and finally laughed.

He's a meritorious official of the sect.

Move him from the First Institute?

Wouldn't that be making enemies of them, these Peak Lords?

Without him, who would attract enemies for them?

Yan Ruxue said with a smile, "Recently, Zuo Youyan has appeared. He's the precious disciple of the one from the Spirit Controlling Peak, but unfortunately, he defected.

I heard he's been causing trouble for quite a few people recently, and now they're looking for our Azurewood Sect.

If we don't hand him over, wouldn't it be a bit awkward?"

Zuo Youyan can't be found, and it's even more impossible to go looking for him. If we tell the other party this, they might not believe us, but if they did...

Wouldn't it be a pity?

Qu Youdao gently tapped the armrest, then narrowed his eyes and said to the people below:

"Looking at that Zuo Youyan outside, it's obvious someone is impersonating him."

The crowd was stunned.

Yan Ruxue couldn't help but say, "Is it other disciples of the Azurewood Sect who have grudges against him who are impersonating him? Then we have to find them and let them know, so they don't accuse the wrong person."

The next day.

Gu An was quite moved.

Today, Pang Wen came to say that Zhao Qingshan had left.

Yue Han and Fairy Qingyao refused to leave.

Zhao Qingshan has a month's vacation; as for whether he will return, it's hard to say.

Ye Xiu and Chen Changfeng have returned.

As for Zhao Qingshan, Gu An is inclined to think he will return.

After all, he can teach people, teach them well, and quickly.

Plus, with the resources of the First Institute, those people's cultivation has been advancing by leaps and bounds.

It's different from Ye Xiu and Chen Changfeng.

Ye Xiu is easily provoked and prone to impulsive killing.

And Chen Changfeng is destined to be one of the protagonists of the world.

The former is likely to cause trouble if taken out, and the latter, not to mention taking him out, will bring trouble even if he just leaves the First Institute.

This time, he left for a month and came back, so there will definitely be some trouble following him.

And he will be the first to bear the brunt.

He doesn't understand why they're making things so difficult for him, a warden of a prison.

Currently, he can only have Pang Wen pay attention to it.

In addition, he received feedback from the Ring of Destiny last night.

Fairy Xueying seems to think she has some value and is planning to incite the people of the Buddhist sect to put pressure on the Azurewood Sect.

At that time, she will take advantage of the chaos to find him.

Saying she will compete fairly with another person.

Gu An doesn't know the cultivation levels of these two people.

But they must not be weak.

"If they exceed the Return to Void stage, it will be troublesome."

Right now, he can at most find ways to advance to the Return to Void Completion stage.

It's a bit difficult to surpass the Return to Void stage.

He knows very little about the realm above Return to Void, and he hasn't even truly seen a strong person of that level.

After that, Gu An stopped thinking about it and decided to go to the Rosheng Hall to chop wood first.

Nine days should be enough for him to improve once more.

In addition, he has a lot of spirit stones, so this time he has to buy new giant stones, as well as defensive magic treasures, healing pills, and some attack talismans.

Mainly for safety.

He also wants to buy a handy spiritual sword.

Just to indulge in the addiction of being a sword cultivator.

Mid-August.

The First Institute didn't encounter any trouble.

Fairy Xueying didn't target him too much either.

She seems to have contacted the fairy who sells information.

And started a new plan.

As for the rumors about Zuo Youyan, they have spread throughout the sect.

They even began to re-evaluate Zuo Youyan, knowing that he became a Nascent Soul at the age of forty, which was astonishing.

Then, knowing that Zuo Youyan had defected, they were filled with regret.

But many people were extremely angry, defecting and still causing trouble for the sect.

The power of the Buddhist sect is immense, and its influence is vast. If the Buddhist sect targets the Azurewood Sect,

Then how dangerous would that be.

They felt that they had to find Zuo Youyan as soon as possible, at least hand him over.

So that the sect could be spared from disaster.

Gu An had some sense of crisis, after all, if those people's methods were strong enough, he would be in danger.

Especially with the Buddhist sect's karma and fate.

He didn't know what kind of methods they had.

However, he hadn't seen Chu Meng for a long time.

And he didn't know when she would bring him the mission reward.

He wanted to learn some finger flicking techniques.

Of course, there was also the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Art.

This technique is extremely domineering, capable of summoning divine thunder and attacking enemies from a distance.

In the later stages, it would truly be a thunderous strike.

It was an extremely good offensive method.

Unfortunately, with his strength, it would take some time to master it.

So he hadn't spent time on it for the time being.

After all, the Sun and Moon Heart Furnace was more worthwhile to learn.

After that, Gu An left the sect and went to Qingmu City to buy things.

He bought a large giant stone.

This time, a giant stone cost 15,000 spirit stones.

That's just for one.

If you want more, you have to pay more.

This thing is good, but it's not portable for others and it's a disposable item.

Its usefulness is limited.

If the power inside could be released without damage, the price wouldn't be just a few thousand or tens of thousands.

Gu An didn't mind. He found a secluded spot and directly stored it in the Sheti compartment of the Twelve Stars of Suichen.

Afterward, Gu An wanted to buy a defensive magic treasure that could withstand the Void Return stage.

However, after looking around, he found...

He couldn't buy one.

It wasn't that there weren't any, but his cultivation level wasn't high enough.

He could only see those at the Primordial Spirit level at most.

Void Return level items either radiated cultivation aura or revealed one's identity.

Besides, if he had enough spirit stones, he should be able to see them.

It seems good things are truly not visible to ordinary cultivators.

In the end, Gu An didn't force it and bought a defensive magic treasure at the Primordial Spirit level.

It could at least block one or two attacks from Primordial Spirit cultivators.

It cost him forty thousand spirit stones.

Afterward, he spent another nine thousand to buy a spirit sword with a decent quality and a good name, Jiuyuan (Nine Abyss).

Then came pills and talismans.

This cost roughly five thousand spirit stones.

So, he was left with only about three hundred and ninety thousand spirit stones.

Still wealthy.

As for cultivation techniques and spells, he wasn't in a hurry to buy them.

He wanted to see what Chu Meng would bring.

After hesitating, he spent a thousand spirit stones to buy some tea leaves.

He had to give his superior some face, more or less.

He also bought some dried fish for Noodle, hoping it would like it.

That afternoon,

Gu An returned to Sky Suspension Peak.

Noodle looked at the dried fish on the water surface and fell silent.

But soon, it brought its companion to Gu An.

It was Hua Jiyang's paper figure.

Gu An wasn't surprised. This interval was quite long this time.

Then he took a letter and a piece of emerald jade from the paper figure's hand.

Gu An briefly looked at the jade and found some runes on it.

It might be some kind of text he had never studied.

Besides that, there was nothing else.

He wondered if Hua Jiyang had the seventh volume of the Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper.

Fortunately, Hua Jiyang had given him the previous volumes. If he hadn't, it would have been troublesome to collect them himself.

After all, the first and second volumes were easy to obtain, but the third volume was somewhat difficult.

The fourth, fifth, and sixth would probably become increasingly difficult.

He might not even be able to find them.

After all, many people had cultivated the earlier ones, but basically no one would cultivate the later ones.

It was too time-consuming.

A normal lifespan simply wasn't enough.

Thinking this, Gu An opened the letter.

To see what news Hua Jiyang would bring this time.

Soon, the words on the letter came into view.

"Junior Brother, I have to say, although you're old, your luck is booming. I heard your First Branch is developing extremely well. If it weren't for your identity as a spy for the Reincarnation Branch, the marriage partner this time might have been you.

But you still have a chance. After all, the Imperial Family has been delayed by many things recently and doesn't have much energy to manage the Azurewood Sect's marriage.

And I heard the Imperial Family has brought back the princess who was lost among the common people.

Currently, both the real and fake princesses are in the Imperial City, and the infighting there is considerable.

When Junior Brother becomes a marriage candidate of the Imperial Family one day, you'll probably have to meet those people in the Imperial Family. You have to be careful then.

The people of the Imperial Family are not good people either.

Of course, you have to become a marriage candidate first.

Also, I investigated Chu Meng again. Junior Brother must have met her.

This person has a True Disciple backing her, and her status is extremely high.

If she doesn't have any hostility towards Junior Brother, and you aren't selected for the marriage this time, and you have big trouble in the sect, you can totally befriend her.

This way, you can avoid a lot of trouble.

It's just uncertain what kind of danger will accompany it.

Also, let me tell you some news.

I've found out that the Azurewood Sect's marriage with the Imperial Family is said to be because this County Princess suddenly awakened her talent.

And the Imperial Family has a marriage alliance with the Dao Sect.

To prevent any accidents with the Imperial Princess's marriage with the Dao Sect, this County Princess must be married off first.

Otherwise, it would be bad if the Dao Sect chose this County Princess.

So it will be as fast as possible, and it's likely that the candidates will be chosen this year.

If Junior Brother wants to compete, you must work hard in the second half of the year.

Also, if Junior Brother succeeds, be careful of the people around you.

It is said that there is a person who can transform into anything who has set his sights on the Imperial Family and will pretend to be a marriage candidate to replace him as a member of the Imperial Family.

In addition, that jade pendant was obtained by me in a mysterious secret realm. Remember to refine it as soon as possible.

This thing has a very special origin, and remember not to let anyone else know.

Then comes the main thing.

How many spirit stones does Junior Brother still have?

Hua Jiyang left."

Looking at the contents of the letter, Gu An was slightly surprised.

Other than that, there was nothing else. So the reason behind the marriage was this.

The Imperial Princess was going to marry a disciple of the Dao Sect.

And this County Princess's talent suddenly became powerful. The direct line of the Imperial Family, for the sake of stability, had the County Princess marry the Azurewood Sect, which is why there were the Six Branches.

In addition, this marriage was being rushed, so...

The general candidates would appear roughly this year, and even the marriage partner would be directly determined.

As for someone impersonating, Gu An didn't care about that.

Because it had nothing to do with him.

The internal affairs of the Imperial City had nothing to do with him either.

All of this was based on the premise that he would win, but others didn't know if he could win, but could he not know?

It was simply impossible.

Because he was still a spy for the Reincarnation Branch.

With just this one point, the Imperial Family would probably refuse.

Looking at the paper figure, Gu An took out the spirit stones.

After hesitating, he gave thirty-seven thousand.

He had about twenty thousand left.

Nine thousand were still from Zuo Mu.

He kept about ten thousand for himself, perhaps it would be useful.

This time there were a lot of spirit stones, but that was the amount that could be earned by going out.

Within the sect, he probably couldn't earn much in a year.

Maybe one or two thousand.

This was still with the situation of the First Branch.

He was already like this, so how many years would other Golden Cores need to earn enough spirit stones to buy good magic treasures?

Especially with the need to buy pills for cultivation.

After taking the spirit stones, the paper figure quickly disappeared.

Gu An then began to observe the jade.

There seemed to be no problem no matter how he sensed it.

But Hua Jiyang spoke so solemnly.

"What exactly is this thing? And it can't be known by others."

If it hadn't been given by Hua Jiyang, he would have worried about some other conspiracy.

However, Gu An still waited until midnight.

There was no feedback from the Ring of Destiny.

So, he no longer hesitated.

He began to refine it.

The refinement was successful, and then the jade disappeared and merged into his palm.

Finally, it turned into a symbol, like the number nine.

Then it disappeared into his palm.

Besides that, Gu An didn't feel anything. He extended his divine sense, but there was no reaction.

Gu An frowned.

What exactly was this?

After studying it all night, Gu An couldn't figure anything out.

Until the sun rose, Gu An suddenly felt a resonance in the mark.

Then a rumbling sound appeared in his mind.

Then a deep, mysterious voice slowly came from the void:

"September 1st, the Divine Hall reopens!"

Immediately after, Gu An heard the voice of the fat tiger outside, very excited: "Big Brother, Big Brother, the Divine Hall is about to open."

Gu An was stunned.

Somewhat incredulous.
