Chương 13: Chapter 13: I only remember his leg techniques being very fast
Gu An was not happy about the rapid breakthrough, his mind was constantly tense, afraid that someone would come.
The Supreme Sect was so vast that it was hard to see any trace of people within a hundred miles around Medicine Valley. It shouldn't alarm a Great Cultivator, right?
Just as Gu An was thinking this, he suddenly felt two powerful auras coming from afar, stronger than Chu Jingfeng back then.
What you fear will always come!
He was in the process of cultivation, from the Fourth Layer to the Fifth Layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm. It was inconvenient to get up, and it would be hard to escape those two even if he ran now.
Big trouble!
Gu An nervously felt those two approaching auras. When they were less than a hundred feet away, they stopped, with a mountain peak between them.
He was in a dark forest, wearing a dark green robe. Coupled with the dust flying around, it was hard for people to see his true appearance clearly.
Sensing that the two didn't force their way through, Gu An breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed that the others were also wary of him and didn't dare to disturb recklessly.
Gu An's cultivation continued to grow. Due to the commotion around and the mountain separating them, he couldn't hear the conversation between the two, leaving him unable to relax.
When he broke through to the Fifth Layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm, the two on the other side of the mountain still had not moved.
Gu An's cultivation speed began to slow down. He raised his right hand and pressed it against the tree trunk behind him, connecting it with his internal spiritual power. A blue line of light appeared on the tree trunk, flowing around his palm.
When the blue line connected end to end, he withdrew his right hand and directly pulled off a piece of wood mask from the tree trunk.
He put the mask on his face, and with his other hand drew two eyes on the mask. The drawn area fell off, and thus, a complete mask appeared on his face.
Spiritual energy was still drilling into his body, but he could already get up.
As if sensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth calming down, a loud voice came:
"Which Daoist friend is making a breakthrough here, and why not in your own cave?"
This voice was very serious, clearly doubting that Gu An was not a disciple of the Supreme Sect.
Gu An hesitated about whether to respond.
He was just a servant disciple. If he was discovered making a successful foundation within a few years of entering, even if he could successfully join the Outer Sect, there would still be risks!
His commotion was too loud tonight. If those two knew his identity, there would inevitably be a third and fourth person knowing. What if someone harbored malicious intentions towards him?
No wonder Gu An thought too much. Growing up as a house servant, he had seen the dangers of human nature.
While binding the mask with vines, Gu An was thinking, his eyes flashing with cold light, shining in the night.
Impossible!
Cannot be exposed!
Gu An didn't want to get into trouble. Even if he became an Outer Sect disciple, it would not be a good thing for him.
The Supreme Sect would not keep disciples for nothing. Outer Sect disciples had to take on sect tasks, inevitably falling into life-threatening situations.
When his cultivation completely stabilized, he stood up. His face was covered by the mask, revealing only a pair of eyes, and a cyclone still surrounded him.
At this time, he felt the two auras quickly attacking from the mountain, clearly regarding him as an intruder.
Gu An dared not make a sound because he judged that the other party's cultivation was not too strong. If he felt the other party was unbeatable, he wouldn't have dared to think so much.
He immediately turned around and rushed deeper into the forest.
Whip—
A breaking sound came from behind Gu An. He turned to look, seeing a cold light dashing through the dark forest, breaking branches along the way, followed by a woman.
This woman was dressed in white, her right arm stretched out, her palm facing the sword hilt, connected by spiritual power. The sword blade burst out with sharp sword qi, unstoppable, flying through the forest like a startling swan.
In an instant, her sword almost reached Gu An's back within half a zhang.
Gu An's left foot landed, his body twisted backward, and his left leg crouched down. The sword blade just flew over him.
The woman in white widened her eyes. The night made her face fall into darkness, but the sword light illuminated her eyes, showing astonishment in those bright and dazzling eyes.
In a flash!
As Gu An crouched down, his right leg kicked backward, hitting the woman in white's abdomen. An immense force she had never experienced attacked her, her consciousness instantly went blank, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.
Bang!
The woman in white was sent flying backward, crashing into a big tree and falling on the grass, life or death unknown.
"How dare you!"
A shout came, and Gu An looked closely, seeing a blue figure quickly leaping, leaving shadows along the way.
So fast!
Gu An's eyes couldn't keep up with the other's movement technique. In a panic, he directly used the Gale Shadowless Leg.
He had no combat experience. Dealing with the Demon of Greed back then was just a slap, so facing a powerful opponent, he didn't dare to get too close.
Spiritual power poured into his right leg. He took a step back, and his right leg kicked out fiercely.
With this kick, a gale suddenly sprang up, whistling towards the blue figure.
Inside the blue figure was a man holding a sword. His pupils suddenly dilated, filled with leg shadows.
Dust flew up, rows of trees were knocked down, and leg shadows carrying an overwhelming force submerged the swordsman, sweeping several zhang away, making a huge commotion.
Gu An retracted his leg and turned into the darkness.
The forest gradually fell silent. When the dust settled, the swordsman was seen lying on the ground, not moving.
...
In the morning.
Ye Lan walked out of the house, her gaze habitually looking at her senior brothers' courtyard. Over a not-so-high wall, she saw her senior brothers' figures.
"So diligent, I can't let them leave me behind."
Ye Lan thought secretly, walking quickly.
Entering the courtyard, she quickly walked to Gu An's side, greeting obediently, "Senior Brother."
Gu An nodded at her with a smile.
"Senior Brother, are you going to work today?" Ye Lan asked curiously. Gu An was wearing cloth clothes, which were his old clothes, only worn when picking medicinal herbs.
Gu An replied, "Mm, I plan to find some time to go up the mountain in the afternoon."
Ye Lan didn't think much and continued, "The wind was strong last night, scaring me from cultivating. I was afraid the spiritual energy would be disrupted during energy absorption, affecting my luck. Senior Brother, I heard from Senior Brother Meng that you encountered a demon attack. What was it like then?"
Gu An watched Xiaochuan and Lu Jiujia practice the Residual Wind Leg while explaining the situation back then.
He was always patient with everyone.
After an hour, the juniors left, and Gu An welcomed his relaxation time. He lay under a tree, holding the Green Hero Travelogue in one hand and playing with the White Spirit Rat in the other, feeling at ease.
At this moment, he kept thinking about the two people he encountered last night.
He had held back his strength; he shouldn't have killed them, right?
Gu An felt uneasy because he had no enmity with them.
Without a grudge, Gu An didn't want to kill.
With such worries, Gu An spent an anxious day.
Sunset and moonrise, the next day at noon.
While reading by the wooden railing, Gu An suddenly saw figures at the mouth of the valley. Focusing his gaze, he found it was more than one person.
A man and a woman!
Gu An sighed in relief, glad they were not dead.
He used the Dragon Strength Divine Primordial Skill to suppress his cultivation to the third layer of the Energy Cultivation Realm, unafraid of being recognized.
Soon, Cheng Xuandan walked out of the pavilion, quickly going to the two and clasping his hands in salute. Before him stood a woman in white and a man in blue.
The woman in white had an icy, stunning beauty, with fair and tender skin like creamy jade, almond-shaped eyes, and willow eyebrows. She held the sword scabbard in her right hand, exuding an aloof and unapproachable aura.
The man in blue was also handsome, with a tall and straight figure and a luxurious robe, but his face was a bit pale.
They were both Outer Sect disciples of the Supreme Sect, the man named Shi Yang, and the woman named Li Xuanyu.
Facing Cheng Xuandan, Shi Yang smiled and stated their purpose.
After hearing him, Cheng Xuandan replied, "No one else has come to Medicine Valley these past two days."
Having lived for a hundred years, Cheng Xuandan had experienced many things and stayed calm.
Shi Yang looked at Medicine Valley and said, "Could you gather your disciples?"
Cheng Xuandan had no objections, turned, gathered his qi to his dantian, and called loudly. Upon hearing him, Gu An and the others ran over.
"Xiaochuan, go get your Senior Brother Meng out too," Cheng Xuandan instructed.
Xiaochuan immediately ran off to find Meng Lang.
Shi Yang and Li Xuanyu started scrutinizing Gu An and the others, frowning silently.
Cheng Xuandan stayed silent, waiting for Meng Lang to arrive.
Gu An took this chance to probe the lifespan of the two Outer Sect disciples. The previous night he was in too much of a rush to check their lifespan.
[Li Xuanyu (Foundation Establishment Realm Fourth Layer): 24/245/1670]
[Shi Yang (Foundation Establishment Realm Fifth Layer): 25/298/1304]
Wow!
Both were geniuses, having Foundation Establishment cultivation in their twenties, and their maximum lifespans reaching over a thousand years, with Li Xuanyu's exceeding that of Li Ya.
Both bearing the surname Li, could she be from the Imperial Family?
Gu An was secretly stunned, grateful that he hadn't revealed his identity the previous night.
Soon, Xiaochuan returned with a frustrated-looking Meng Lang.
Seeing Meng Lang, Shi Yang squinted his eyes and transmitted a message to Li Xuanyu beside him, "Junior Sister Li, this guy's aura is chaotic, showing signs of deviation. Although his cultivation is low, he might be related to the person we're looking for."
Li Xuanyu stared at Meng Lang, her cold eyes seeming to see through him.
Feeling their gazes, Meng Lang saw their distinguished attire and immediately reined in his expression. He lowered his head and stood beside Gu An, followed by Xiaochuan.
Cheng Xuandan asked, "The night before last, about ten miles from Medicine Valley, a mysterious cultivator was breaking through. Suspected to be a Demon Path spy. Have you seen anyone recently?"
Wow!
Even Demon Path spies are here!
Gu An inwardly complained, but outwardly frowned, showing tension.
Meng Lang, wide-eyed, exclaimed, "Is there another demon invasion?"
"Another? What do you mean?" Shi Yang asked, staring at Meng Lang.
Meng Lang couldn't hold his tongue and immediately talked about the Demon of Greed incident. Hearing that it involved an Inner Sect disciple, Shi Yang's face changed slightly.
This place was so dangerous?
Shi Yang instantly lost the desire to investigate further.
Gu An took the opportunity to ask, "Seniors, did you see that Demon Path spy? Can you give us some clues?"
The others nodded, becoming tense at the mention of the Demon Path.
Shi Yang pondered, "It was too dark that night. I only remember the speed of his leg technique."
