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

Those nearby naturally saw Yang Shi's actions.

Qiu Hua frowned and said, "Yang Shi, what are you doing?"

"I'm not doing anything, just normal supervision," Yang Shi shrugged.

"Then why are you waving your whip at the boss?" Qiu Hua said indignantly.

"That's a false accusation. I'm just doing normal supervision, and which eye saw me hit Gu An?" Yang Shi reminded with a smile, "Also, the new boss has arrived. If you don't change your address, the one who suffers won't just be one person.

Besides, I'm just following orders. You don't want the new boss to think we're neglecting our duties as soon as he arrives, do you?"

"You..." Qiu Hua was speechless for a moment.

Gu An motioned for her not to speak, then said calmly, "Yang Shi is right, you can continue to supervise."

Afterwards, he apologized to the lumbering cultivators nearby.

The others didn't say much and quietly continued logging.

The day passed quickly.

After work, Gu An was about to leave.

At this time, Yang Shi came over with an apologetic expression:

"Brother Gu, don't take it to heart. I was just putting on an act so the new boss would see it, so he wouldn't target you."

Gu An nodded, indicating he understood.

He said he had worked hard.

Yang Shi also assured him that he would not overstep his bounds.

He said that when the situation improved, he would definitely make amends.

Gu An said that when the situation improved, he would treat everyone to demonic beast meat.

Then he quickly left.

He sighed.

Having to accept someone's bowl, being subject to their control, eating their food and watching their face, life has never been easy.

When you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head.

Returning to the courtyard of Clear Water Residence, Gu An found a middle-aged man waiting outside.

This was the manager of Clear Water Residence.

The other party's arrival made Gu An feel a little worried. The other party would not normally come looking for him.

"Fellow Daoist Gu," the middle-aged man, Hu Fei, said politely.

Gu An said with a slightly respectful tone, "Fellow Daoist Hu, what brings you here suddenly?"

"It's like this, we received news that Fellow Daoist is no longer the leader of the Spiritwood Garden, so the courtyard belonging to Fellow Daoist must also be taken back.

Of course, if Fellow Daoist wants to continue living here, you can pay spirit stones to continue your stay," Hu Fei still maintained his politeness.

Gu An's heart sank.

Steward Chen said that the accommodation here could be retained.

But now, not only was it not retained, but he was being asked to move out on the same day.

Living here costs ten spirit stones a month, how could he afford it?

He simply didn't have that many spirit stones, and even if he did, it would only be enough to pay for one month.

He definitely wouldn't have any for the second month.

Being angry now was useless. Finding Steward Chen would definitely lead to many excuses, and the problem would ultimately not be solved.

He felt quite desolate in his heart.

Finally, Gu An quietly handed the other party a spirit stone and said, "Fellow Daoist Hu, can you give me a few more days?"

After receiving the spirit stone, Fellow Daoist Hu looked quite embarrassed:

"It's not that I don't want to help, but well, three days, three days at most.

If Fellow Daoist wants to stay, you have to pay spirit stones. If you don't stay, you really can't continue to delay."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist," Gu An said gratefully.

Three days could at least provide some buffer.

Returning to the courtyard, Gu An saw Chu Meng sitting on a chair in the hall, her face full of anger:

"You took my things, and you don't plan to care whether I live or die?

Hasn't that bitch sent anyone to bring me back yet?"

"This junior is also waiting," Gu An said softly.

His poison was about to flare up. If he didn't get the antidote, he didn't know what would happen.

And he couldn't contact his superior, he could only wait for the other party to arrive.

He was too restricted.

Not only was there trouble here, but trouble had also come from the Spiritwood Garden.

His cultivation was weak, his age was old, and in everyone's eyes, he had no future.

Now that he didn't have the status of a leader, he could be asking for trouble at any time.

"Then I'll teach you how to contact that bitch. You tell her to send someone to bring me back. This place is not fit for humans," Chu Meng said.

Gu An ignored her.

Instead, he prepared food and placed it in front of her.

Then he turned and entered the room.

Everything was ready. Now, he just needed to improve his cultivation and improve Hundred Steps Chasing the Wind.

He hoped everything would go smoothly.

It was also his first time using the Bitter Cultivation value to improve, and he wasn't sure what the result would be.

Returning to the room, he heard Chu Meng scolding him outside, as if she could no longer endure this kind of life.

Gu An turned a deaf ear and entered the training room.

Then he closed his eyes.

He sensed the Bitter Cultivation value.

Then he began to extract it.

In an instant, a mysterious force enveloped him.

He felt like he was immersed in a dream.

In the dream, he was cultivating, tirelessly, day after day, breaking through to the fourth level was not smooth.

But he never stopped.

Time passed, perhaps three years, or perhaps five years.

Suddenly, there was a cracking sound.

The bottleneck of the fourth level was broken.

Then the power belonging to the fourth level surged through his meridians.

Immediately afterwards, he began to consolidate his cultivation.

After a long time.

Gu An felt everything calm down.

Only then did he open his eyes.

Sensing the power in his body, he found that he was really at the fourth level of Qi Refining.

"It's a success."

Gu An breathed a sigh of relief.

The cultivation technique was real, and the Bitter Cultivation value could indeed improve cultivation.

Carefully recalling it, he understood something about what was in the value.

"There is spiritual energy, there is time, so if you want to obtain the value, you need to endure the spiritual wood of distant years."

"Having spiritual energy is not enough, you also need enough tree rings, otherwise it will be difficult to produce bitter cultivation or spells."

Understanding this, Gu An also knew what he wanted.

But where could he find such wood?

"Take it one step at a time."

Thinking this, he looked at the panel.

【Name: Gu An】

【Cultivation: Fourth Level of Qi Refining】

【Status: Poisoned, about to be poisoned】

【Spell: 50/50】

【Bitter Cultivation: 3/100】

【Wheel of Destiny】

There were three values left.

He didn't know when he would be able to accumulate them again. Now that he was not in charge, he couldn't go to the depths.

In addition, the Vajra Wood in the depths couldn't withstand such cutting, and it would be easily discovered.

At that time, even if he was promoted, it would be difficult to escape danger.

Shaking his head, Gu An was not in a hurry, but planned to deal with the recent events first.

The antidote, and Yang Shi of the Spiritwood Garden, and the newly arrived leader.

If these were not resolved, they could easily cause trouble.

As Gu An was planning to improve Hundred Steps Chasing the Wind, he found that the Wheel of Destiny appeared feedback.

Immediately afterwards, the content appeared in his mind.

【Yesterday, Shang Yundong, after taking over the Spiritwood Garden, sent you to cut down trees, wanting to establish his authority with this.

He even felt that you were nothing, and could actually be a leader like him. After Yang Shi made things difficult for you, he appreciated it very much.

Afterwards, he began to investigate in the Spiritwood Garden, and finally found clues on a tree. After inquiring, he learned that you often captured demonic beasts here, and felt that this matter might be related to you.

In order not to attract the attention of another group of people, he plans to secretly follow you after the Spiritwood Garden affairs end tomorrow, and then appear to investigate the house the moment you return home.

He will test your expression and the situation in the house. If he finds something, he will torture you severely. If he doesn't find anything, he will cripple you, wasting his time.】

Seeing the feedback from the Wheel of Destiny, Gu An was quite emotional.

He didn't wait for his superior, but instead waited for Chu Meng's people.

Fourth level of Qi Refining, outer disciple.

Not easy to deal with.

Tomorrow... it should be tonight that they come.

He had to make a decision as soon as possible.
