Chapter 421: Chapter 296: I May Be Useless, But I Can’t Let Them Laugh at Me_2

He actually felt that what the person before him said made sense.

Gu An looked at the person before him, his eyes slightly moved.

Trying to discern the Qi on the person’s body.

Then he felt some strange changes in the other person’s Qi.

Normally, Foundation Establishment cultivation is an outward emitting state.

Almost constantly releasing Spiritual Energy.

Only when one reaches Golden Core can they better conceal it.

Of course, even Golden Cores have some characteristic traits of Golden Cores.

As long as you grasp the Qi Breathing Chapter, and become more familiar with Qi, you can always see some changes.

And the girl before him, Gu An did not intentionally suppress her.

Instead, he let her freely release her Qi.

But then there was a pause.

It was not a pause caused by unsmooth cultivation, but a pause from unskilled control.

The person before him…

Might be concealing her cultivation.

He couldn’t see through it, but he could spot some clues.

Obviously, it was because of a Magic Treasure.

Just didn’t know where the Magic Treasure was hidden.

“State your names,” Gu An said.

“Yue Han,” Yue Han said: “This person by my side is my master, Immortal Qingyao.”

Gu An looked at the two people before him, and from the names, it seemed that Immortal Qingyao appeared more like the master.

Yue Han is just an average name.

Just don’t know if there’s someone called Ri Nuan (Sun Warmth).

At this time, Immortal Qingyao seemed to care, but ultimately did not speak.

“Do you want to go out?” Gu An asked.

From every aspect, the Royal Family was not someone Cangmu Sect could afford to provoke.

“Not really wanting to go out,” Yue Han continued from behind Immortal Qingyao: “We think it’s quite nice here, I’ve always wanted to come out.

This way I have my freedom.”

Gu An was slightly surprised: “Didn’t you have freedom before?”

“My parents’ expectations locked me in a tiny space, year after year, day after day. Although I longed for freedom, it was just that—a longing.

Until your people captured me, I realized that I somehow had freedom.” Yue Han said proudly with a smile:

“Anyway, I’m not leaving now, you don’t understand, constantly being burdened with high expectations, being constantly watched, what kind of feeling that is.

Especially someone like me, after consuming endless heavenly materials and earthly treasures, I’ve only reached this level of cultivation.

I’m already three hundred and twenty-four years old, and only at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment.

Ordinary people, after consuming so many heavenly materials and earthly treasures, should at least be at the Returning to Void Cultivation, right?

For a genius, they’d be even stronger.

I’m already like this, why still cultivate?

They might not understand me.

I just want to be a wastrel wuwu…”

When she got to this point, her mouth was covered.

It was Immortal Qingyao, her face full of horror as she looked at the person beside her.

Afraid that the other person would blurt out everything.

Gu An, however, was stunned, bewildered.

Three hundred and twenty-four years old?

Looking like a sixteen-year-old at three hundred and twenty-four?

And still at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment.

I myself am at the Early Stage of Returning to Void, fifty-one years old.

How come I look exactly fifty-one?

Gu An reviewed the statement and found it somewhat strange.

Is there any problem with looking fifty-one at fifty-one?

Seems there’s no issue.

But it feels like a big problem.

Snapping back to reality, Gu An pondered over her words.

Three hundred years old and only at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment?

Whether she is really over three hundred is questionable.

But definitely not at Early Stage of Foundation Establishment.

No telling how much cultivation she’s hiding.

And no clue what position she holds within the Royal Family.

On brief contact, this member of the Royal Family seems to dare to say anything, but what is said is completely out of logical order.

Cannot stay for long.

After hesitating, Gu An feigned sympathy: “Then you’re quite pitiable.”

“Yeah, many people don’t understand me,” Yue Han said earnestly.

Gu An also sighed, then he opened the prison door: “I can understand you, to meet is fate, since you’re so pitiable, it’s not good for me to keep you, you can go.”

Huh?

Yue Han was stunned.

Immortal Qingyao was also stunned.

Everyone else in the prison cell was the same.

Who would have thought, they could leave just like that?

Speaking pitifully, that was comparable to their daily hard labor?

“I can’t, I won’t leave.” At the moment when Immortal Qingyao showed intention, Yue Han refused.

Gu An fell silent, then said, “Yang Qi, see the guest out.”

“Don’t come any closer.” Immortal Yue Han backed away to the wall and said seriously, “If you come any closer, I’ll smash my head into the wall.”

A moment later.

In front of the Cangmu Sect gates.

Immortal Yue Han and Fairy Qingyao stood quietly at the entrance.

A slight breeze blowing on them felt somewhat chilly.

They had been directly thrown out.

Hiding behind Qingyao, Yue Han carefully looked at the gate and said, “Qingyao, do you think he’s gotten old, and his mind’s not working well? If he knew I was a Princess, could he treat me like this?

He just kicked me out.

I’ve seen unruly, but never this chaotic.

I, the Royal Princess, the Eldest Princess, a waste indeed, but not just anyone can drive me away, right?

Even the Emperor asks me to practice cultivation earnestly, or else my time will be up, and I’ll be dead.

How dare he?”

Fairy Qingyao looked back at the Princess behind her and said somewhat helplessly, “Princess, your lifespan is not much left, and you’ve tried all sorts of Elixir and Magical Treasures to extend it.

If you rely on other methods for longevity at the last minute, I’m afraid you won’t have any chance to reach Core Formation.

Besides, those other methods can’t add much to your lifespan.

In another hundred years, you’ll really be gone.”

“It’s fine, being able to live to four hundred at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment is already quite impressive; I’ll be a legend in the future.

Just burn incense for me every now and then, and I won’t starve,” Yue Han said lightheartedly.

After making sure that no one was coming out to bother her, she boldly stood next to Qingyao and said, “Just look at this First Institute Director, such a coward. I cursed him out, and he didn’t even come out to teach me a lesson.”

Fairy Qingyao didn’t advise further but asked, “What do you plan to do now, Princess? It might not be long before we are caught and sent back.”

“Definitely not, if that were the case, we wouldn’t have made it out, but since we did, it means someone deliberately let us out,” Princess Yue Han said as she looked inside, “I still want to see who the Little Princess’s marriage partner is, what should I do now?

How can I get in?”

“Why don’t you just use your Royal identity to get in?” Fairy Qingyao suggested.

“No, that won’t do, an Early-stage Foundation Establishment Eldest Princess, it would be a laughing stock if word got out. Although I’m a waste, I can’t let them make fun of me, right?

But if I go in as a captive, let them laugh if they will; after all, they won’t know I’m the Princess.

It’s not me who they’re laughing at,” Yue Han stated earnestly.

Fairy Qingyao: “…..”

It sounded somewhat reasonable, but in the end, wouldn’t she still be laughed at?

In the afternoon.

Gu An was reading books at his residence.

These days, there were no important matters to attend to.

And no news had come.

Dongfang Changli hadn’t sent any messages either.

It seemed that the other party had disappeared after taking what they wanted.

The specific circumstances were unknown, and the marriage alliance with the Royal Family was still a hot topic.

But no one knew who it was.

In the evening.

Pang Wen came again.

He said Yue Han had returned to the First Institute.

Gu An was somewhat shocked.

She had just been sent away in the daytime, how come she was back again in the evening?

“She was said to have attacked the Sect’s great formation and was captured by the Law Enforcement Hall.

Then she was sent to the First Institute,” Pang Wen reported.

Gu An was silent for a moment, somewhat unable to comprehend, are there actually people who like to go to jail?

Why does the First Institute always attract such a bunch of weirdos?

Just don’t know which members of the Royal Family they are.

Especially that Yue Han, what kind of cultivation does she have?

Initially, it was thought that she was just in her teens or twenties, with indecipherable cultivation, possibly because of a Magic Treasure.

Now at over three hundred years old, it seems, her unfathomable nature may not be because of a Magic Treasure.

Her cultivation could possibly be outrageously high.

That’s why it can’t be seen through.

Originally letting her go was the end of it.

But now that she’s back, Gu An suddenly didn’t know how to deal with her.

In the end, Gu An didn’t give any clear instructions, letting the people of the First Institute handle it themselves.

And in the meantime, had them write down their Cultivation Techniques; if they didn’t write, they’d be locked in a dark room.

“There’s one more thing,” Pang Wen said earnestly, “The people who originally came to redeem Chen Changfeng requested to meet the leader, saying they could increase the price.”

Gu An pondered for a moment and said, “Then meet them.”

He was also curious about what kind of person Chen Changfeng’s elder was.

The person who made him unwilling to return.

Elsewhere.

In an ordinary town.

A man and a woman looked at the envelope with some surprise.

“All of Cangmu Sect’s spies are dead, done by Gu An of Heavenly Suspension Peak,” the man said with some emotion, “Those two really lacked ability.

They got caught just like that.

What’s our new mission?”

The woman beside him laughed, “Cangmu Sect is to enter into a marriage alliance with the Royal Family; find that person and then find a way to absorb them into the Zhuanlun lineage.

To get in touch with the Royal Family.”

Hearing this, the man heaved a sigh of relief, “Seems it doesn’t conflict. This time we’ll complete the mission and take care of that Golden Core Disciple on the side, clearing the karma of our Zhuanlun lineage.”
