Steadily becoming a saint, the immortal officials hired me to tend the horses

Chapter 790: Chapter 782: A Doomed Ending

Upon hearing the elderly Immortal mention Emperor Xuanqing, who is An Hao’s true identity, Gu An’s expression did not change in the slightest.

“Since you guys have made up your mind, then I wish you all good luck,”

Gu An raised his wine cup and said with a soft smile.

As long as Xuanyuan Human Venerable did not force him, he would treat him as a friend.

If compelled, Gu An wouldn’t mind teaching him a lesson.

In the Celestial Court, apart from the court itself, only a few Celestial Dao Venerables can reach the rank of Primordial Profound Venerable Immortal; this was Gu An’s confidence source.

Even if the Celestial Court were to invade, he could move the Nine Spirit Continent away with a single thought; if he desired, he could even take the Celestial Spirit Great World with him and flee to the depths of Chaos.

The Heavenly Dao is vast, with an all-encompassing destiny, but regardless of how expansive the Heavenly Dao is, it cannot surpass the Great Dao, always leaving places untouched by it.

Xuanyuan Human Venerable narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Gu An, while the elderly Immortal did not know what to say, raising his cup to drink with Gu An in silence.

While drinking, the elderly Immortal gave Xuanyuan Human Venerable a glance, signaling him not to act rashly.

At least Gu An did not show any favor toward the Great Immortal Divine Yuan. Though recruiting him failed, it should not lead to enmity.

Afterward, Gu An and the elderly Immortal started chatting idly, no longer discussing the contention over the throne but talking about All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

Xuanyuan Human Venerable remained silent, seemingly drinking gloomily by himself.

After a long while,

the elderly Immortal sighed, “Master, you eradicated the Dark God in this realm, which is a great merit, enough to place you in the Immortal Class; why not go to the Celestial Court and become an Immortal Official?”

He was probing Gu An’s opinion of the Celestial Court.

Gu An smiled and shook his head, “Since being an Immortal Official requires a position, I prefer my current life, unrestrained. Moreover, staying in this realm allows me to handle any disasters here. If I were to go to the Celestial Court, I might not be able to solve the problems it faces.”

“Besides, one of my disciples has already entered the Immortal Class, fulfilling my desire to ascend to immortality.”

Hearing this, the elderly Immortal raised an eyebrow, asking, “Oh? Which disciple are you referring to?”

Gu An answered, “His name is Yang Jian. He was recommended for immortality by Eternal Life Venerable.”

Eternal Life Venerable!

A subtle change appeared in the eyes of Xuanyuan Human Venerable and the elderly Immortal.

The elderly Immortal did not inquire further but praised Yang Jian’s extraordinary talent, suggesting it was why Eternal Life Venerable endorsed him.

The conversation between the two continued to shift topics until dusk when the elderly Immortal stood up to bid farewell. Before leaving, Xuanyuan Human Venerable finally spoke.

“Master, you seem to doubt me, but I will show you my victory. When I succeed, you are still welcome to support me and even share the Creation Green Lotus.”

Xuanyuan Human Venerable stared at Gu An, his gaze burning with unwavering confidence, brimming with an air of unchallengeable dominance.

Gu An smiled, “Thank you, Your Highness, I will wait to see you laugh last.”

Xuanyuan Human Venerable’s mouth curved upward, and he departed with the elderly Immortal.

Gu An stood up, turned to look at the distant celestial vault, watching them leave.

Under his gaze, the fate of the struggle for the throne had already changed.

From beginning to end, Xuanyuan Human Venerable and the elderly Immortal did not harbor hostility towards Gu An, nor did they become causal enemies, which explained Gu An’s favorable attitude.

In truth, compared to the Great Immortal Divine Yuan, Gu An hoped more for Xuanyuan Human Venerable to win because the Great Immortal Divine Yuan fabricated Demon God Bodies and mobilized the Mo Luo Clan for battle. Regardless of how one viewed it, it seemed quite sinister, raising suspicion that it might be related to Chaos.

Xuanyuan Human Venerable, on the other hand, led Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, with no trace of Chaos Evil Demon nor did he offer Mortal Spirits as sacrifices. In terms of conduct, Xuanyuan Human Venerable was more upright.

Nonetheless, it was unfortunate.

Even with the change in fate, Xuanyuan Human Venerable would still lose.

Zhang Buku fought for Xuanyuan Human Venerable, leaving Gu An to consider how to save him.

Zhu Xi’s position in the Taiwei Great World remained favorable toward the Great Immortal Divine Yuan, and even if she consciously withdrew, it would be futile. Fortunately, her ending was good, allowing her the chance to enter the Immortal Class.

In the future, more old acquaintances would enter the Immortal Class, and all because of Gu An.

Without him, Zhang Buku and Zhu Xi wouldn’t have come this far. Even with Zhu Xi’s former status as Shengtian.

Regardless of Shengtian’s strong fuyuan, escaping the Three Thousand Great Worlds was challenging.

Gu An did not find these matters troublesome, as he also gained insights into the Path of Cause and Effect throughout this process.

“Next comes the projection; the path of Enlightenment must not be halted.”

Gu An pondered silently with a smile on his face.

Allowing the Three Thousand Great Worlds to remain in constant turmoil while quietly growing stronger amidst the Celestial Court’s indifference, this feeling, even after tens of thousands of years, remained wondrous.

No one knew his true strength, underlying his continuous growth, without limits, savored only by him.

On the other side.

Xuanyuan Human Venerable and the elderly Immortal arrived in Outer Heaven, flying toward the World Gate.

“Your Highness, do you really intend to recruit him?” the elderly Immortal asked curiously.

Xuanyuan Human Venerable gazed ahead, replying, “Indeed, the creation of Nine Spirit Continent and the condition of Celestial Spirit Great World have given me a good impression of him. He is a truly enlightened person, seeing through red dust, controlling his desires. Such a person is more suited for immortality. The current Celestial Court is tainted with too many unscrupulous immortals, tarnishing its image, which I am very dissatisfied with. Unfortunately, my abilities are insufficient to change this.”

The elderly Immortal sighed, “Ancestor Master Wushi certainly has the demeanor of an enlightened one, but even with your victory, I believe he would not come, nor be swayed by the Creation Green Lotus.”

Xuanyuan Human Venerable did not dispute, nor did he respond further.

The two Immortal Gods quickly vanished into the depths of the void.

Their arrival and departure went unnoticed by the masses. Taiji Yuan, Chen Chuan, and others knew but were unaware of their identities, marking this encounter with a mysterious touch in their hearts.

Time flows like a great river; it rushes forward, never to return.

The Three Thousand Great Worlds remain embroiled in constant battles, whereas the Celestial Spirit Great World continues in peace. The Celestial Dao Light Layer enveloping the Great World continuously expands, symbolizing the strengthening trend of Immortal Cultivation in this realm. seaʀᴄh thё novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Besides the Celestial Spirit Great World, many other planes remain peaceful, even silent.

For instance, the River of Great Dao, where each of the Three Thousand Great Dao has its own river, existing independently from the worlds, only discovered through enlightenment.

…

In the darkness, the River of Destiny radiates seven-colored glow, dazzlingly beautiful, threads of Dao Qi traversing its surface.

Deep within the River of Destiny, a figure emitting silver light was seated in meditation. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, revealing a pair of cold eyes with countless stars subtly flickering within.

He was Lu Qiuxian, trapped in the River of Destiny.

Lu Qiuxian slowly spoke, “You’re here again. Do you think you have the strength to defeat me now?”
