Approaching mid-month.
Gu An still hadn't received the marriage certificate, but his essence and blood had already been submitted, so whether he was in the sect or not wouldn't affect things now.
Logically speaking, the marriage certificate was an extremely serious matter, especially one issued by the sect.
If successful, he would sense it.
He just didn't know how easy it would be to escape the marriage.
Of course, with his low status, it would be difficult to escape.
But as long as he knew who the princess was, he could completely help her escape.
He could get Chu Meng to persuade her.
Mention what kind of person he was.
Just have Chu Meng say what she usually said, about finding the pavilion fairy, keeping a beauty in a golden house, and so on.
Then give her a portrait.
If she was a normal woman, she definitely wouldn't want to become a Dao companion with him.
After careful consideration, Gu An felt that this was completely feasible.
So sometimes you have to change your perspective to solve problems. If he couldn't do it, it didn't mean that someone else who was also being deprived of their interests couldn't solve it.
He could completely give everything he obtained to the princess.
He didn't think anyone would care about that open special forest.
At noon, Gu An left the sect with Chen Changfeng and Ye Xiu.
Before leaving, the senior brother from the Law Enforcement Hall specially told him to consider it carefully.
Going out did have certain dangers.
In addition, he also said that if he encountered any strong enemies, he should bow his head if possible, even if he was poisoned, it wouldn't matter.
As long as he came back, they could help solve it.
In short, he had to stay alive.
Senior Brother Mei from the Merit Hall also came to persuade him a few words, and finally gave him a magic weapon.
A spatial magic weapon that could teleport him to the Merit Hall in just five breaths.
It wasn't a gift, but a lease.
If it wasn't used while he was out, the Merit Hall wouldn't charge a fee, and it could be recycled.
But if it was used, it would cost 10,000 spirit stones.
Of course, if he wanted to use it again next time, he would have to pay rent, but there was a drawback: it couldn't be too far away.
Linghua Valley was within range.
This was the latest offering from the Merit Hall, a special consideration for those on the Merit List.
Gu An felt that these people were quite good at maintaining the value of the list.
Before leaving, he also wanted to ask Huo Jie in the front yard. As the person in charge of transportation, he should know something. However, he heard that he had already gone to Linghua Valley, so Gu An had to give up.
Then, the three of them left the sect on their swords.
"Dean, you don't need to do anything the whole time. Just arrange for me to do things," Chen Changfeng said.
Gu An glanced at him. Naturally, he didn't want the other party to handle things himself.
It was easy for uncontrollable events to occur.
Ye Xiu could also easily lose control.
Gu An hummed.
If someone else died again then, he would ask about it.
Anyway, it wasn't them who killed them, so could it be him who killed them?
After a slight hesitation, Gu An spoke again: "This time when you go out, anything you obtain on the road is yours.
You don't need to hand it over to me, and you don't need to tell me. Just keep it yourself.
And try not to let others know."
In this way, he should be able to simply guard against Chen Changfeng. Things that no one knew about shouldn't cause any trouble.
Sometimes Gu An also admired Chen Changfeng's relatives. Their hearts were so big that they would let Chen Changfeng pick up things at will and use them openly.
It was surprising that they had lived so long.
"Dean, it's useless for me to take things. Why don't I give them to you?" Chen Changfeng said immediately.
Gu An glanced at him and didn't say anything.
This guy dared to give it, but he didn't dare to take it.
There were too many good things, so many that it was frightening.
The main thing was that what the other party gave was not ordinary good things, but likely something that a group of people were investigating.
If it fell into his hands, it would easily cause accidents.
But as long as no one knew, then with Chen Changfeng's luck, he should be able to hide it from the world.
Chen Changfeng wanted to continue saying something, but he had to give up after Gu An looked at him.
Chen Changfeng spoke to Ye Xiu, but Ye Xiu ignored him.
What did it have to do with him?
He couldn't pick up good things anyway.
People's joys and sorrows cannot be shared.
Great Wood Sect Hall.
Qu Youdao looked at the crowd below and said, "Is the marriage certificate ready?"
"It's ready. It only needs the final blessing. Who will do it?" Yan Ruxue said, taking out the fiery red marriage certificate inlaid with gold thread.
"This style is a bit old," Situ Baichuan said.
Yan Ruxue smiled and threw the marriage certificate casually.
The marriage certificate stood in the air, then slowly opened, with dragons and phoenixes auspiciously displayed, and golden characters surrounded the edges.
Then, they quickly embedded themselves into the marriage certificate.
Ancient, vast, with the sounds of dragons and phoenixes.
"Refining the marriage certificate was hard on those fire phoenixes in the backyard. They released a lot of blood," Yan Ruxue said with a smile.
"It's passable. Our Great Wood Sect isn't a stingy sect. We naturally have to give the royal family the face they want," Qu Youdao said, looking at the marriage certificate. "Now it only needs a blessing. Logically speaking, any one of us can do it, but to show our importance...
I'll take it to the sect master and see if he can do it himself.
If the sect master is willing to do it, then all the royal family's requirements will be met."
"Can the sect master do it?" Situ Baichuan asked.
"Our sect has become a demonic sect, and the disciples in the sect are quite restless. They are all leaving the sect. We need a grand wedding to let everyone understand that the sect is still the same sect. This reason should be enough," Qu Youdao said.
"Will it work?" Situ Baichuan questioned.
"Won't we know if we try?" Qu Youdao squinted and smiled. "Anyway, the sect master hasn't been in charge for a long time,
He doesn't know, and we don't care either, so we can still deceive him."
The compassionate fairy shed tears again: "The sect master is so pitiful. He gave you power, but you deceived him like this. If he knew, he would definitely beat his chest and stomp his feet..."
?
"Stop," the three said in unison.
Qu Youdao said immediately: "You better pray that the sect master doesn't find out, or he will indeed beat his chest, but he will be beating us. Don't think your chests are thick. One hammer down, we are all the same."
One hammer down?
Hearing this, the compassionate fairy shivered and said, "I'm so pitiful. I didn't express any opinions the whole time, but when the incident happens, I will be taught a lesson by the sect master because of you."
"This time you can cry for a longer time," Yan Ruxue kindly reminded.
Sure enough, the compassionate fairy's bean-sized tears kept falling.
Yan Ruxue then continued: "Since it's a marriage alliance, should the two of them meet? Logically speaking, they should get to know each other."
Qu Youdao took out a piece of paper and gave it to the three people below.
After reading it, the three were surprised.
Situ Baichuan couldn't figure it out: "Don't meet? Is that crazy woman's intention, or the princess's intention?"
Qu Youdao shook his head and said, "It's not important. Once the marriage certificate is issued, let alone the princess, I'm afraid even the royal family won't be able to cancel it.
If the sect master blesses it, then it will be even more difficult.
It's normal for the princess to be a little dissatisfied as a sacrifice for the royal family.
Not refuting is not considered trouble."
"I heard that the people of the Heavenly Maiden lineage are opening secret realms nearby. I don't know if there are any clues about the Eye of Heavenly Punishment,
If there are, then the person we are impersonating will be useless," Yan Ruxue said with a smile.
"I hope it's not them. Then they will come to us. At that time, if that person in the First Courtyard is discovered, there will definitely be a storm.
They will definitely ask us to hand over the other party.
As people involved in the marriage alliance, how can we hand over people?" Qu Youdao said, then got up and said, "No, I have to let the sect master bless it, so that we have a reason to refuse the strong people who come to our door.
As strong people, they will naturally not allow us to be rebellious, and as sect peak masters, it is natural and reasonable to protect our disciples.
Even if the sect master is helpless, he can't do anything about it."
Saying this, Qu Youdao no longer lingered and decided to make the marriage certificate effective first.
The next afternoon.
With Ye Xiu's help, Gu An successfully arrived at Linghua Valley.
They didn't encounter any accidents.
However, there were people following in the shadows, and more than one.
Fortunately, they didn't directly attack, otherwise it would have been quite troublesome.
He couldn't directly attack in front of Ye Xiu and Chen Changfeng.
Ye Xiu's strength was very strong, and he might not be able to hide it from her if he attacked himself.
As soon as Gu An arrived at Linghua Valley, he felt something strange, as if there was an inexplicable power here.
But he couldn't say exactly what it was.
"Team Leader Gu?" Suddenly a voice came from inside.
Gu An looked over and found a man quickly walking towards him in front of the Linghua Valley Sect.
He seemed to be meeting an acquaintance.
Gu An looked carefully and found that he really did know the other person.
Huang Yunshan, a Golden Core cultivator.
The last time he came, the other person was the guide.
At that time, he should have been ostracized and could only be a guide.
This time, he probably came to get acquainted.
Gu An chuckled: "Fellow Daoist Huang."
"Is Team Leader Gu here to deal with the Qingyang Wood matter?" Huang Yunshan asked curiously.
"Yes, who is the person in charge of this connection?" Gu An asked knowingly.
Normally, the person in charge of the connection should be Fairy Ji Jin, who was also the transporter.
"The person in charge of the connection is Senior Sister Ji Jin, but I heard that Team Leader Gu was coming, so I waited here as soon as possible." Huang Yunshan said with a smile, "If it weren't for Team Leader Gu last time, I might have died, so I came here specifically to thank you.
In addition, I will take Team Leader Gu over there now."
As he spoke, he looked at the two people behind Gu An and said, "Who are they?"
"We are the Dean's followers," Chen Changfeng said.
Ye Xiu did not refute.
Huang Yunshan was quite surprised, he felt that these two people should be very strong.
He wanted to bow and say hello, but now he didn't know what to do.
"There is no need to mind us," Chen Changfeng said.
Hearing this, Huang Yunshan breathed a sigh of relief.
After that, he led Gu An into the sect.
The further inside he went, the more Gu An felt a certain aura.
It seemed to be searching for something.
However, he also saw those people discussing some kind of secret realm.
"Fellow Daoist Huang, has your sect had anything happen recently?" Gu An asked curiously.
"It's a secret realm," Huang Yunshan explained: "A group of people came to our sect some time ago, saying that they were cooperating with the sect to open up a secret realm here, which can last for more than a month.
There are many spiritual herbs and pets in this secret realm.
Many people in our sect have entered these days.
Of course, not everyone can enter, they have to match whether they are compatible.
An outer disciple was fortunate enough to enter and obtained a spiritual herb, breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage in one fell swoop, and there is still a lot of medicinal power left, so the Golden Core stage is only a matter of time.
As a result, almost the entire sect has tried it, but unfortunately I can't get in."
Gu An was slightly puzzled, but he didn't ask any more questions.
He would let Ye Xiu and Chen Changfeng go and take a look tonight.
It would just give the people in the shadows a chance.
He could also solve the trouble in the shadows.
"Does Team Leader Gu know much about this Qingyang Wood matter?" Huang Yunshan asked on the way.
Gu An looked at the other person and said: "How much does Fellow Daoist know?"
"I heard that this matter is simple and complex," Huang Yunshan said helplessly:
"Let me tell Team Leader Gu the truth, someone in our sect wants to discuss a deal with Team Leader Gu.
If you agree, he will help settle this matter, and even give some rewards.
If you refuse, then other conditions should be offered, and if you still refuse.
I'm afraid it will be difficult to make things difficult in this matter.
It's not about increasing compensation or anything like that, but about making it more difficult for Team Leader Gu to investigate, so as to keep people in the sect for a longer time.
In order to find a way to persuade you.
That's roughly the situation, Team Leader Gu can consider it."
Gu An didn't expect the other person to be so frank.
"Did they say what it was about?" Gu An asked.
"You have to meet that person to know," Huang Yunshan said truthfully.
Gu An nodded and said: "Tomorrow then, I will reply to you tomorrow."
"Okay, then I will take Team Leader Gu to familiarize yourself with the surroundings." Huang Yunshan said with a smile: "Do you want to meet Senior Sister Ji Jin directly?"
Gu An nodded.
Soon, Gu An arrived at a valley similar to the outer peak of the Cangmu Sect.
This place was responsible for external transactions, the spiritual wood warehouse and some resources were all here.
When he found Fairy Ji Jin, the other person was drinking tea with a middle-aged man.
The other person looked like he was in his early twenties and was very young. Seeing Gu An and the others coming, he said impatiently: "I'm not free now, we'll talk about it tomorrow if there's anything."
Huang Yunshan took out a token and said: "Senior Sister, take a look at this."
The moment she saw the token, the originally impatient Ji Jin immediately stood up, somewhat surprised and nervous.
"Now Senior Sister needs to fully cooperate with Team Leader Gu," Huang Yunshan said.
Hearing this, Fairy Ji Jin nodded: "I understand."
After that, Gu An asked about the general situation.
The things were placed in a storage magic weapon, and she checked them before taking them away.
However, this thing was initially kept by the person in charge of the Cangmu Sect.
She gave it to her halfway.
After arriving at the place, she released it and checked it again, and there were no problems before the problems occurred.
A small part of the Qingyang Wood had insect eggs out of thin air. At first, she thought she was negligent in supervision.
Later, other normal Qingyang Wood leaves began to have insect eggs, no matter how she guarded them, it was useless.
This was not her problem.
So she suspected that the Cangmu Sect had sent defective products from the beginning,
Gu An felt that the other person was not lying, so he asked Huang Yunshan to take him to a place to rest.
Zheng is Fengchang coming to investigate?
Gu An knew his own weight, his brain was not enough.
It was not easy to investigate.
Soon, Gu An was taken to a half-mountain courtyard with abundant spiritual energy and pleasant scenery.
"Team Leader Gu, rest here, you can find me if you need anything," Huang Yunshan said with a smile.
After that, the other person left.
Chen Changfeng immediately said: "The Dean is too good to you, showing courtesy for no reason, either treacherous or a thief."
Gu An looked at Chen Changfeng and said: "Take Ye Xiu to investigate the secret realm."
"I'll stay and protect the Dean," Ye Xiu said.
Gu An shook his head and refused: "I have a magic weapon that can directly teleport me back, I'm not at ease with you going out alone, go."
The two looked at each other, and finally went together.
"Don't cause trouble," Gu An instructed.
After the people left, Gu An breathed a sigh of relief.
He was finally alone.
The people in the shadows would probably come out.
But just as he was waiting, he suddenly felt a pull in his mind.
Then the dragon and phoenix brought auspicious signs, and the glow soared into the sky.
An omen.
"What is this?"
At the same time, Dongfang Changli, who was near the Cangmu Sect, also looked up at the sky: "What's going on with this omen?"
She saw the glow reaching into the clouds, and then felt it fall to the ground and could not be seen.
It wasn't that scary, it was just a little unbelievable.
"Presenting to the Nine Heavens, delivering to the Netherworld, it's a marriage certificate," a clear voice said with a hint of shock: "There are strong people blessing the marriage certificate to present it to the heavens and the earth, this kind of thing is extremely rare.
Once the marriage certificate is issued, if you regret the marriage, the backlash can involve the entire clan, which is extremely terrifying, either both of them are the pride of heaven, a fairy couple.
Or it is a forced marriage, which is of great importance."
On the other side, Gu An felt an inexplicable pressure, as if he was connected to something.
It was extremely difficult to break away.
It should be a marriage certificate.
But he looked at the omen in the high sky and couldn't help but sigh: "Is this a royal family's method? Why go so far?"
He couldn't understand what the people of the royal family saw in him.
They actually used such a method to set up a marriage contract.
If he wanted to escape the marriage, he could only rely on that princess.
He didn't know what she thought.
