Chapter 456: Leader, You're So Dazzling
Gu An trusted Chu Meng's guess but still remained cautious.
Who would dare be reckless when it concerns the Eye of Heavenly Punishment?
A slight mistake could result in annihilation.
The Nine Heavens Divine Palace has been sealed for years without any moves.
Yet, in recent years they've seemed bolder; otherwise, how did things fall into my hands?
Clearly, they are having numerous thoughts.
Internally, there must be issues as well.
Without further thought, Gu An looked at Chu Meng and said, "Senior, you mentioned borrowing the Eye of Heavenly Punishment. So, will those seen by it be remembered?"
"Remembering might not be easy, as the main body hasn't seen anyone in person, but it's uncertain. What if someone conspicuous is indeed remembered?" Chu Meng pondered for a moment and continued, "Moreover, if you have enough power, you can borrow more strength. When eyes are borrowed, the person being targeted will naturally be remembered.
Additionally, what is usually borrowed is the Eye of Heavenly Punishment's inherent flames, capable of burning everything around.
The past Nine Heavens Divine Monarch didn't borrow it for fear of being burned.
But you're different, you don't fear being burned.
You've been burned several times and still unscathed.
Otherwise, why can your skin borrow the Eye of Heavenly Punishment?
Not only are you burned, but also remembered, with the shadow of the Eye of Heavenly Punishment present on both physical and causal levels.
Just like last time, when the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Tower tried to act against you, it was countered."
Gu An became silent as he listened.
Having such a connection with the Eye of Heavenly Punishment is not surprising.
The main issue is that borrowing it once means getting burned ten times out of ten.
This...
It's not pleasant at all.
If borrowing the Eye of Heavenly Punishment against an enemy, it truly means mutually assured destruction.
After asking some questions, Gu An also understood the specific usage of the Decree.
It's just the beginning.
In the future, the second chapter of the Decree can open nine void spaces.
As long as there's enough strength, borrowing nine forces at once isn't impossible.
With many emotions, Gu An thought about borrowing both Ruishui and the Heavenly Punishment Fire in the future to see which one is stronger.
"Senior, do you have a mission this time?" Gu An suddenly asked.
Although the Decree is important, he hasn't forgotten the mission.
After all, he still wants to rely on the other to enter Luo Sheng Hall.
"Although entering Luo Sheng Hall requires following the rules, your status and position are already high enough, so breaking the rules is not hard." Chu Meng thought for a moment and said, "After completing the final task, you can make your request to enter."
"Why?" Gu An was curious, "Shouldn't there be two more chances?"
Initially, he needed to gather nine Token Fragments.
Now he has only seven, still needing two more.
"Because your strength is too high, being at the Seventh Layer of the Immortal Bridge, who in the entire Sect doesn't know?" Chu Meng said while eating peanuts and sighed, "In no time, you've become the Sect's Heavenly Pride, thus naturally receiving different treatment.
Because the current you only needs to mention it to the Peak Master to complete a trial task and is likely to enter Luo Sheng Hall.
Therefore, the top decided to synchronize with the Sect.
After completing one more task, they will help you get into Luo Sheng Hall.
If you want a regular or part-time position, they can also help you secure it.
How about that?
As your superior, isn't it full of humanity?"
Gu An: "..."
Were you inhumane before?
But he still thanked, "Thank you, Senior."
"Now the mission is one thing, there's another matter to remind you about." Chu Meng said seriously, "The Dragon Clan has appeared."
"Wasn't it mentioned long ago? Because the marriage contract entered the East Dao Ancient State.
Even if they realized it and came, they would trouble the Royal Family." Gu An stated.
"Trouble the Royal Family?" Chu Meng was stunned, "Why?"
"Wasn't it the Royal Family that reported to the Nine Heavens?" Gu An said.
This was his well-thought-out answer.
"Who said it was the Royal Family? It was the Sect Master of Cangmu Sect who reported to the Nine Heavens." Chu Meng replied.
Gu An contemplated briefly, not too surprised, considering the importance of the marriage alliance with the Royal Family.
He had previously guessed so as well.
Chu Meng sighed, "Being your superior is truly embarrassing sometimes."
Gu An: "..."
Then, Chu Meng spoke again, "The Dragon Clan this time is targeting the Sect, unrelated to the marriage contract, because you found the True Dragon Spirit Egg, and they noticed it too.
That's likely what attracted them here.
You need to be careful now."
Gu An: "..."
This can cause trouble too?
It left him somewhat surprised.
These clans are indeed extraordinary.
Years ago, the Fire Phoenix Clan came for this reason, and now the True Dragon Clan too.
Who knows if this will bring big trouble.
The Fire Phoenix Clan came quickly and left quickly, never making things difficult for him.
Hopefully, the Dragon Clan will be the same, otherwise.....
It's definitely something a small cultivator like him can't handle.
Though he seems high in cultivation, having reached the Dual Flower stage.
But...
The Fire Phoenix Clan and the True Dragon Clan are not to be measured by ordinary people.
Provoking them, he will definitely run into trouble.
When the Fire Phoenix Clan came, hardly any Sect in the entire East Dao Ancient State dared to provoke them.
At that time, he even thought about how to escape.
Fortunately, he was lucky, and the other side seemed not to pay attention to him.
If this time the True Dragon Clan is reasonable, their target should be the Sect.
It's uncertain whether the Sect will hand him over.
On one side is the Royal Family, on the other is the True Dragon Clan.
The Sect must find it hard to decide, right?
Gu An didn't know the specifics, but he still needed to be vigilant.
After a pause, Gu An suddenly asked, "Senior, can you rescue me if something happens?"
"You're a Nine Heavens Divine Monarch, already at Dual Flower stage, would you use a Golden Core Early Stage to rescue?" Chu Meng tilted his head and asked.
Gu An earnestly said, "It's all just rumors."
These rumors are truly hateful; it was hard enough to catch up with them.
"No worries, by then we'll be husband and wife. If I don't rescue you, I'll be widowed. Even if I can't manage, I'll do it." Chu Meng spoke reluctantly.
