Chapter 956: Chapter 948: Wushi’s Trouble

Ji Xiaoyu heard the words of her followers, but she didn’t care. Her gaze was directed towards the distance, sensing the aura of a great battle.

“Immortal Gods, huh…”

Ji Xiaoyu murmured to herself, her eyes revealing a trace of disdain.

Even after arriving at Central Heaven, one could still see the Immortal Gods oppressing all living beings. It seems the so-called Heavenly Dao Center is just like this.

With that thought, Ji Xiaoyu was not interested in this battle; she planned to first find a place to establish the Yin Yang Immortal Domain.

Once she determined the direction, she immediately led everyone to fly away.

During the flight, Ji Xiaoyu had an inexplicable intuition that a great opportunity awaited her in the direction she had chosen.

She did not believe this intuition was wrong, nor was it a coincidence.

“Are you guiding me?”

Ji Xiaoyu thought silently, the corners of her mouth slightly lifting.

She no longer resisted that person’s care for her, but she still harbored a strong heart within her, which was why she didn’t follow Wushi away.

She wanted to rely on herself to stand before that person and issue a challenge.

No matter life or death, only victory or defeat mattered.

If possible, she also hoped she could in turn protect him.

Far away on Inch Mountain, Gu An also smiled because he heard her heartfelt voice.

In the courtyard, he was playing chess with Xuanwu, who scratched his head and couldn’t decide his next move.

Xuanwu looked up and found Gu An smiling, and couldn’t help but ask, “Master, what’s so funny?”

He really didn’t want to play chess with Gu An because every move he thought of was predicted by Gu An, which was a very uncomfortable feeling and devoid of any fun.

“Nothing, it’s just that someone wants to defeat me for the purpose of protecting me. Isn’t that funny?” Gu An replied with a smile.

Xuanwu’s eyes widened, and he jumped up, angrily asking, “Who is so presumptuous? Is it Liu An, or the True Yuan Ancestor?”

Gu An gave him a look, annoyed, “Sit down! Don’t take this opportunity to quit the game!”

Xuanwu smiled awkwardly and sat back down.

Then, Gu An told Xuanwu the story of himself and Ji Xiaoyu, and as a result, the chess game was interrupted, but Xuanwu was very interested in his story.

It took a full two hours before Gu An reluctantly finished.

Xuanwu directly regarded this segment of the story as a training experience in one of Gu An’s lives, after all, great powers often reincarnate and train, and with his current cultivation level, he could also feel reincarnation.

That Miss Ji couldn’t possibly be older than the master, otherwise how could she have just ascended to Central Heaven today?

Xuanwu sighed, “Master, is this the love that those stories write about?”

To relieve his boredom, Gu An had brought many books, so even though he had not left Inch Island, he had some understanding of the mundane world.

Gu An rolled his eyes at him and said, “What love, how vulgar, this is called kindred spirits.”

“Is that so? I haven’t seen you smile like this because of Liu An or the True Yuan Ancestor,” Xuanwu questioned skeptically.

Gu An found this guy had really grown bold and dared to tease him.

“Today in chess, you lost, and your penalty is to run around Inch Island ten million times. Remember, you must run on foot, without using mana.”

Gu An said sternly, and Xuanwu’s face instantly fell. He let out a wail and began to beg for mercy, but unfortunately, Gu An ignored him.

For Xuanwu, such running was not difficult, but it was a huge waste of time, meaningless, and only torturous.

Shortly after, Xuanwu reluctantly began running, while Gu An, satisfied, got up and left.

He planned to return to Wushishi Continent. He believed that Xuanwu wouldn’t dare deceive him, and if he truly dared, he would see it.

If Xuanwu dared deceive him, then their relationship would end there.

And Xuanwu also knew this, which is why he was always cautious around Gu An.

…

The battle between the Dragon Ancestor and the Celestial Court lasted for years. Even with the aid of great powers, it ultimately ended with the victory of the Celestial Court. When the Celestial Court’s Supreme Immortal cut off the Dragon Ancestor’s head and sealed his soul, the war ended.

All kinds of living beings fled in panic, utterly defeated.

The Celestial Court Immortals did not pursue them; for them, the urgent task was to take the Dragon Ancestor back.

They stepped on the Heavenly Ascension Stairs, returning to the Celestial Court, leaving Central Heaven in silence.

The second-generation disciples of Wushi all came to Gu An’s courtyard to inquire about the outcome of the great battle, and Gu An did not hide it.

This caused the disciples to feel regretful. Although the Dragon Ancestor was defeated, his spirit of resisting the Celestial Court was worthy of their respect.

“Alright, instead of the Dragon Ancestor, you should be concerned about the troubles on our continent; next, there’s a Taiqing Golden Immortal who was defeated and is coming to attack. Who wants to step up?”

Gu An sat in a rocking chair, casually asking.

As soon as he said that, all the disciples turned to look at him, their eyes gleaming.

Currently, there are only a handful of second-generation disciples capable of matching a Taiqing Golden Immortal, but they hadn’t fought external enemies for a long time, so hearing about such trouble coming, their first reaction was excitement.

“I’ll go!”

The Blood Prison Great Saint said, taking the lead. He was among the few second-generation disciples who had achieved the rank of a Taiqing Golden Immortal, and he was truly confident in defeating other Taiqing Golden Immortals.

Lv Xian, Zui followed suit, but An Xin remained silent.

The other disciples jokingly debated who among the three had the best odds.

Eventually, Gu An decided to let Lv Xian fight, after all, Lv Xian had previously been interrupted during a battle at the Origin Great Vein, and he had been holding in his frustration.

“There will be many such troubles in the future. Some beings, to escape the reckoning by Immortal Gods, want to claim this continent, and some come from Outer Heaven or the Lower Realm, seeking to establish dojos here, so you’ll all have opportunities.”

Gu An said with a smile, which energized all the disciples.

Tian Bai curiously asked, “Master, what about you?”

The other disciples followed, looking at him with eyes full of anticipation.

They hadn’t seen Gu An make a move in a long time.

“Those above the Taiqing Golden Immortal level are not something you can contend with, no matter how high your talent and comprehension,” Gu An said casually, giving the disciples the answer they wanted.

Jiang Shi sighed, “Those who have cultivated the Daluo Dao Fruit have all endured countless tribulations and vast eons. Unfortunately, encountering the Master will definitely lead to their Dao fruition, but this is all their choice, blame no one.”

The others nodded in agreement, imagining themselves venturing out, choosing a seemingly non-threatening place to establish a dojo, only to encounter a reclusive old monster; the thought alone was terrifying.

Then the disciples began to discuss what kind of opponents they might face next.

Three days later, the first Taiqing Golden Immortal arrived.

This Taiqing Golden Immortal had experienced the Immortal-Mortal War and now, like a frightened bird, seeing the many living beings on the Wushishi Continent but no great powers overseeing them, he harbored malicious intentions, wanting to emulate the Dragon Ancestor, sacrifice a region of all living beings to restore his Dao practice, to face the retribution of the Immortal Gods.

Lv Xian stepped forward, and the ensuing battle was earth-shattering, witnessed by all living beings on the continent, who regarded Lv Xian as a True Immortal living reclusively in the continent’s depths, with some even kneeling to worship him.
