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

#278 - The first sword in the world, separation

The two sat at the table in the room, Gu An lowering his eyes, looking at the teapot on the table, silent.

And the one opposite him seemed at a loss even sitting down.

Gu An's sentence "I don't blame you anymore" didn't reassure her.

"Not blaming" has too many meanings.

Not taking it to heart naturally means not blaming.

After all, if you don't care, why bother blaming?

"You must have had a hard time these years?" the woman asked.

Gu An recalled Zuo Youyan's life, eventually thinking back to the beginning.

That year, he brandished his sword and knife, writing of youth, full of ambition speaking of the future.

It's just that in the end... he failed.

"But it was still considered wonderful, right?" Gu An said, pausing, he looked at the person in front of him before finally saying: "It must be very difficult for you alone, right?"

In the words left by Zuo Youyan, he wanted to mention and inquire about this mother several times.

But in the end, he seemed somewhat unable to speak.

He no longer resented, nor blamed, wanting to reconcile with her.

But he could never bring himself to say it.

It was a conflicting thought.

He kept putting it off.

Thinking there would always be a chance in the future.

Until the end, he couldn't personally return.

Little did he know that ordinary farewell would become a final farewell.

And hearing Gu An's words, the woman lowered her eyebrows, large teardrops falling from her eyes.

Her husband was gone, and she single-handedly raised the young Zuo Youyan, feeling it was hard, feeling he was a burden, feeling she had it too difficult.

So she would beat and scold Zuo Youyan, releasing all her grievances on the young him.

Finally forcing Zuo Youyan to leave and never return.

Then she discovered that when Zuo Youyan was around, he was always doing things for her.

He cleaned the house, prepared the food himself, managing a simple home in an orderly manner.

He was only eight years old then.

He endured her unreasonable anger for a full three years, until he left her, his mother, at the age of eleven.

Later, she realized that Zuo Youyan had never asked for anything.

Had never asked for anything.

Perhaps he had things he wanted, but never spoke of them.

Without Zuo Youyan at home, it didn't make her life better, instead the home no longer felt like a home.

She still had to rush around every day, work hard, and be targeted.

And no one was waiting for her when she returned, preparing anything for her.

In the sixth month after Zuo Youyan left, she finally woke up completely.

After that, although Zuo Youyan would return, he no longer lingered for long.

He would only pack up his things and then leave.

Perhaps in his eyes, she was the burden.

Sure enough, without her, the burden, her son began to shine.

And that's how it crushed her heart.

Forcing her to face her ugly self, her useless self.

The last time Zuo Youyan came back, she had a big fight with him.

A mother's dignity no longer existed.

He just watched, ate the last meal, and left.

After that, she heard about the legends of Zuo Youyan.

Successfully establishing his foundation at twenty-three, mid-Foundation Establishment at twenty-six, late-Foundation Establishment at thirty, Foundation Establishment Completion at thirty-four.

Forming his Golden Core at forty.

Giving birth to his Nascent Soul at fifty-seven.

In just a few decades, he reached a height she could never hope to reach in her entire life.

In those years, the name belonging to Zuo Youyan spread everywhere.

She knew this was her son, but the people of the Ouyang family didn't know he was her son.

And she didn't tell anyone.

She knew he would never come back.

There was already a rift between them, and the rift would become deeper and deeper.

Like a chasm.

She had regretted it, cried, and waited.

Waiting for him to come back one day.

She wanted to say to him: I'm sorry.

But today, he came back, and out of humble self-esteem, she was unable to mention that apology.

"It's not that hard alone," the woman's voice was somewhat choked.

Gu An looked at her, silent for a long time.

For a moment, he didn't know how to speak.

In fact, there wasn't much of a gap between Zuo Youyan and the person in front of him, it was just because of silence that they couldn't reconcile for a long time.

Who was wrong in the end?

Zuo Youyan said it was his own fault.

And the person in front of him seemed to think it was her fault.

After a long silence, the woman finally broke the silence and said: "Your situation recently shouldn't be very good, right?" Gu An shook his head: "It's okay, it's not that bad."

The woman wiped the corner of her eye, and finally got up and came to the bedside, she took out a storage treasure from a hidden compartment.

She then handed it to Gu An: "My cultivation is low, I'm just a woman, I don't understand anything, but I know spirit stones must be useful to you.

I've established my foundation these years, so I can earn some spirit stones.

I've saved some, take it and use it first."

Gu An looked at the storage treasure in his hand, sensing it slightly.

His whole person was stunned in place.

Nine thousand spirit stones.

How could an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator save up nine thousand spirit stones?

According to the sect's resources.

Ten spirit stones a month, plus ten spirit stones for logging at night, twenty spirit stones a month.

Two hundred and forty a year.

It would take thirty-eight years to save up nine thousand.

Moreover, how could the outside compare to the sect?

Ten spirit stones each month?

Having five would be good.

So, these nine thousand spirit stones, she had saved almost frugally.

At least fifty years of savings.

Now, she gave them all to him.

The weight of these spirit stones was too heavy, he...

Couldn't bear it.

Gu An wanted to return the spirit stones to her, but she directly held his hand, her voice somewhat choked, saying:

"I know, you don't need me, without me you will fly higher.

But... can you not refuse me this time?

Everyone looks down on you, but you are the most promising."

Gu An felt the rough and somewhat heavy palm, feeling it weighed a thousand pounds for a moment.

"I..." Gu An wanted to speak.

But he was pushed to the door by her, and then she opened the door and sent him out: "Go quickly, or you'll be discovered."

Finally, the door closed gently.

Gu An looked at the door, holding the spirit stones in his hand, silent.

He wanted to apologize, wanted to reconcile.

Wanting to tell her about Zuo Youyan's willfulness back then, telling her that he actually missed her a little these years.

After improving his cultivation, he really wanted to come back and see, but he was afraid of being targeted.

In the end, the words were on the tip of his tongue, but Gu An couldn't say them anyway.

Especially those nine thousand spirit stones...

He wasn't Zuo Youyan.

What virtue or ability did he have?

Afterwards, Gu An left, walking through Qingmu City with a heavy heart.

Qingmu City at night wasn't lively, Gu An walked on the road, feeling some coolness.

In July, there shouldn't be any coolness in theory.

Gu An looked at the slightly lively stalls around, feeling that whether they were ordinary people or cultivators.

They all needed to live.

And had their own emotions.

And would regret, and do wrong things.

Whether it was Zuo Youyan or Mother Zuo.

Perhaps some people would think that Zuo Youyan was young, had dreams, had ideas, and had things to do.

But...

Who knew that decades ago, Mother Zuo was just as young as Zuo Youyan, had dreams and things she wanted to do?

Don't laugh at the young man's Jianghu dream, who didn't dream of Jianghu when they were young? It's just that she also failed, and then swayed between her ideals and Zuo Youyan.

Thus brewing regret.

Gu An stepped out and disappeared from the spot.

Then he appeared outside Qingmu City.

In the forest, he suddenly wanted to practice his saber.

In an instant.

The broken saber Chu Meng gave him was in his hand.

Gu An felt the intent within the saber, a strange feeling.

Zuo Youyan's regret, Zuo Mu's caution, the words Zuo Youyan wanted to say, the words Zuo Mu couldn't bring herself to say.

Gu An felt it all.

At this moment, Gu An felt like he was Zuo Youyan, feeling his own contradictions, feeling the ordinary yet unforgettable family affection.

Gu An began to move as his heart desired, the saber following his movements.

Carrying a kind of intent that belonged to him.

It was contradiction, it was persistence, and it felt like a weight.

Especially the nine thousand spirit stones given by Zuo Mu.

It gave Gu An a great sense of heaviness.

Nine thousand spirit stones from others were just nine thousand spirit stones.

But the nine thousand given by Zuo Mu were regret for her son, regret for not fulfilling her responsibilities as a mother back then.

But it was also a kind of expectation, hoping that he would be well, hoping that he would forgive her.

It also carried decades of years.

At this moment, Gu An felt the saber in his hand was extremely heavy.

Recalling Zuo Youyan's life, he also set a goal for himself.

But in the end, everything returned to dust.

Bewildered for half a lifetime, mediocre in the mundane world.

Youth remains, but time flies too quickly!

At this time, Gu An and the broken saber began to resonate, feeling the joys and sorrows of the world.

Then these things turned into a sharp blade of the world, integrated into the saber.

At this moment, Gu An slashed out with his saber.

The first saber of the mortal realm, Separation.

With a single slash, it seemed to be able to cut off everything.

Everything under the saber could not resist the sharpness of this slash.

At this moment, the saber fell in front of a large tree.

The saber fell in front of it, and nothing changed, but when Gu An sheathed his saber, the original tree began to crack from the middle, the saber mark carrying a different kind of intent, even using magic would be difficult to heal.

Gu An lowered his eyes and looked at the broken saber in his hand. At this time, cracks appeared on the saber body, and finally, it weathered into ashes.

Disappearing into smoke.

Thus, Gu An stood in place, silently watching the cut tree.

He didn't bring any power to this saber.

If he used Chasing the Sun with his Nascent Soul cultivation base to unleash this saber...

No one in the Nascent Soul realm should be able to resist it.

Even if there were, with the addition of Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper, no one could resist it.

From then on, he would be the number one person under the Returning Void realm.

Gu An took out Chasing the Sun and gently tapped it with his index finger.

Clang!

A slightly dull saber sound came out, and then the seal on it shattered with a crack.

The seal left by Zuo Youyan completely disappeared.

He didn't take Zuo Mu's blood, but it wasn't needed anymore.

As for the rest, they were all broken open.

Even without Gu An forcibly breaking them open.

Seeing those three people was the most important thing.

At this time, Chasing the Sun was still rusty, but it had become Gu An's saber.

Gu An once again began to practice the saber, beginning to familiarize himself with the first saber of the mortal realm, Separation.

The next day.

As soon as it dawned, Gu An came to the talisman shop.

Gu An asked Qin Shufu to call Ouyang Lie over.

At this time, Ouyang Lie looked at Gu An with increasing respect: "Greetings, Senior."

Then he said that thanks to Gu An's blessing, the one who had newly accepted them had given a series of support.

All because of Gu An's face.

Hearing this, Gu An was slightly surprised.

Thinking about it, it was because he had handed over A Month Illuminating the Past and Present.

In addition, selling a favor to himself, I'm afraid, also hopes that he won't cultivate, right?

Gu An naturally had no intention of cultivating. Since he was only helping to complete the task, and there was no animosity, there was no need to offend the other party.

Unless he really couldn't get a good spell.

In this way, he could only try to cultivate A Month Illuminating the Past and Present.

But the Mortal Realm Saber greatly increased his strength.

Not only the moves, but he also comprehended the intent within.

He was no longer what he used to be.

There was no need to spend time on A Month Illuminating the Past and Present.

And there was also Drawing the Ground as a Prison to learn.

"Thanks are thanks, there is no too complicated relationship between us, no need to care too much. You need to be clear about who you are working for, otherwise, you won't even know when your clan is destroyed."

Hearing this, Ouyang Lie was shocked and immediately said: "Thank you for your guidance, Senior."

Gu An didn't have the idea of ​​drawing these people in, and he didn't want the other party to have this idea either.

Since that senior brother accepted them, then they have to work for that person.

Wanting to play both sides might lead to eternal doom.

"I'm looking for you to ask about a person, does your Ouyang family have someone named Ouyang Sheng?"

Gu An asked.

This name was the name of Zuo Youyan's father.

Hearing this, Ouyang Lie thought for a while and said with a slightly nervous expression: "This..."

"Go back and check it out."

Gu An didn't embarrass the other party either.

Zuo Youyan's family was originally a marginal branch.

That noon.

Ouyang Lie came over and said: "Senior, there is such a person, but he died decades ago, leaving behind his wife and children, but decades ago, his son also seemed to have died unfortunately, now only his wife is left.

Still in the Ouyang family, named Xiao Ning."

Hearing this, Gu An lowered his eyebrows.

No one knew what he was thinking.

Finally, he sighed and said:

"Ouyang Sheng and I have an old relationship."

Although Gu An didn't continue to say anything, Ouyang Lie understood what the other party meant.

He respectfully said: "Please rest assured, Senior, Ouyang Sheng is the mainstay of our family, and taking care of his widow is naturally our family's duty."

Thus, Gu An nodded and said nothing more.

Afterwards, Ouyang Lie left.

Gu An waited until evening before returning to Peak Outside Peak.

Recently, there was nothing important, and he didn't need to care too much.

With the help of the sect, the Six Courtyards in the backyard were almost considered a place with a lot of real power.

The person in charge was temporarily in the limelight.

Gu An was also among them, and he was even a famous person on the Merit List.

Therefore, no one in Peak Outside Peak was willing to offend him.

Especially a place where a Returning Void expert could be pulled out at random.

Who would dare to mess around?

Without targeting and making things difficult, the Second Team's task would be much smoother.

Gu An safely felled trees, accumulating spells and cultivating diligently.

Late July.

Gu An looked at the panel.

【Name: Gu An】

【Cultivation: Nascent Soul Perfection】

【State: Poison enters the Qi Sea, the Qi Sea produces Profound Yellow】

【Spells: 50/50】

【Diligent Cultivation: 90/100】

【Wheel of Fate】

The spells are slow again.

Go back today and improve it, and the Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper will be on the fifth level.

There are four more times left.

It will be almost the beginning of the year.

At that time, you can try to advance to Returning Void.

Returning Void.

This realm completely surpasses the disciples of Peak Outside Peak and those down the mountain.

Even among the disciples on the mountain, there are not many who are stronger than him.

Not to mention some elders, once he advances to Returning Void, his strength will be comparable to a direct disciple, as well as the disciples on the mountain who have been in the sect for a long time.

Among the disciples in nearly a hundred years, he should be the first person.

When Gu An returned to his residence, he found Pang Wen waiting anxiously at the door.

Seeing Gu An coming back, he immediately ran over and said: "Senior Brother, something happened."

"What's wrong?"

Gu An asked.

"Chen Changfeng is back, seriously injured and dying."

Pang Wen said.
