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

Chapter 959: Chapter 951: The Supreme’s Speculation

"This..."

The ragged-clothed young man looked at the Red Dust Supreme in Gu An’s hand, his eyes widened, and a myriad of emotions surged in his heart, his admiration for the Ancestor reaching its peak instantly.

The struggling Red Dust Supreme in Gu An’s palm fell into infinite despair. He couldn’t mobilize his mana, nor could he perform a soul emergence. An elusive, invisible force suppressed him, something he had never experienced before.

The opponent’s cultivation level was far above his!

He even had a ridiculous thought in his mind, that perhaps the Celestial Emperor wasn’t stronger than this person.

Because he had once resisted the Celestial Emperor. Although the Celestial Emperor easily suppressed him, at least the Celestial Emperor took action, unlike now, where he had no idea how Gu An suppressed him.

The thought came to him, and it scared him.

How could anyone be stronger than the Celestial Emperor?

Could it be that he was the Celestial Emperor?

The Red Dust Supreme stopped struggling and looked up at Gu An in terror.

Gu An’s palm closed, making the Red Dust Supreme feel as if the world quickly plunged into darkness.

The ragged-clothed young man came back to his senses, looking at Gu An, the excitement on his face yet to fade.

"Change your identity in the future."

Gu An left these words and turned to leave, with the ragged-clothed young man hastily expressing his gratitude.

The ragged-clothed young man watched him depart, his heart surging. This moment of unexpected turn felt like a dream, with the most crucial part being that he had witnessed the Ancestor’s methods firsthand.

So powerful!

Although he didn’t know how strong Red Dust Supreme was, Red Dust Supreme left him utterly speechless.

"One day, I will be this powerful too!"

The ragged-clothed young man clenched his fists, thinking excitedly, already anticipating the scene of the Ancestor guiding his cultivation.

Gu An walked away slowly, heading towards the Mountain of No End, savoring the scenery along the way.

In the darkness, the Red Dust Supreme felt the darkness around him being dispelled. He found himself back on that continent, yet still unable to move, only the surrounding scenery shifted.

He was still in that person’s palm, but that person allowed him to see the scenery along the way.

Seeing the other doing this, the Red Dust Supreme’s uneasy heart began to calm down.

Suppressing his confusion, the Red Dust Supreme started observing the scenery along the way.

He came here wanting to see what this Pure Land was, and now wasn’t it the perfect opportunity?

Gu An took the Red Dust Supreme on a journey for three days and nights, passing dozens of villages and towns, occasionally interacting with people. No one recognized him; he seemed like an outsider.

Actually, along the way, they encountered many Wushiji disciples, but the disciples all pretended not to recognize him, having perfected their acting, appearing calm on the surface while being extremely excited inside.

They all thought the Ancestor was there to assess them.

Arriving at the foot of the Mountain of No End, Gu An set the Red Dust Supreme down. The Red Dust Supreme breathed a sigh of relief upon touching the ground.

But then, his expression drastically changed.

"My cultivation level..."

He nervously looked at Gu An, his eyes carrying a hint of pleading.

Gu An left him with a few words and departed: "From now on, live as a mortal. Aren’t you interested in this place? Then truly experience it."

Mortal?

The Red Dust Supreme’s expression shifted, not knowing whether his cultivation was sealed or completely removed; the man’s methods exceeded his imagination.

Now he couldn’t fly or take out magical treasures, truly like a mortal, reminding him of his past experiences during reincarnation training.

Before he could ponder what to do next, a female voice called out: "Come with me."

The Red Dust Supreme turned to see a woman in black standing under a tree not far away, looking at him coldly.

Without his cultivation, he couldn’t determine her cultivation level, which made him uncomfortable.

He took a deep breath and walked towards the Ghost Mother of Ephemera.

The Ghost Mother of Ephemera was filled with hostility towards him; Gu An hadn’t explained his origins, only saying he was an outsider with sealed cultivation.

To her, anyone sealed couldn’t be a friend.

Furthermore, Gu An hadn’t instructed her on how to treat this person, so she decided to teach the Red Dust Supreme a good lesson.

The Red Dust Supreme didn’t know what she was thinking, but he could sense her hostility.

Since he was here, he might as well stay. Since he sensed no murderous intent from that person, he decided to go with the flow and observe this place carefully.

The sun gradually set.

Dusk was beautiful.

Gu An walked into the courtyard; Shen Zhen stood before the Artifact Refining Cauldron, holding a jade flute, and asked Gu An, "Who is that person? Where did he come from?"

"He is called Red Dust Supreme, once the Celestial Dao Venerable of the Celestial Court."

Gu An answered casually, leaving Shen Zhen stunned.

Shen Zhen couldn’t predict the Red Dust Supreme before; she had guessed his origins were extraordinary, but she didn’t expect them to be so grand.

Celestial Dao Venerable!𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

That was a figure on par with the Celestial Emperor!

Although perhaps not stronger than the Celestial Emperor, his status in the Celestial Court was at least equivalent, unlike other Immortal Gods who had to act under the orders of Cangtian.

To subdue a Celestial Dao Venerable with such ease...

Shen Zhen’s view of Gu An’s power was refreshed once again. Despite being with Gu An for so many years, she still couldn’t discern his cultivation level or origins.

This brought her only excitement and curiosity, as Gu An always had mysterious aspects that she wanted to explore.𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Gu An went back to rest, though resting meant reading books suitable for solitude.

Subduing the Red Dust Supreme was just a small episode. Gu An began individually guiding his disciples in cultivation, and the news about him subduing the Red Dust Supreme spread quickly.

In less than a hundred years, almost all Wushiji disciples knew of a mysterious great power arriving, who saw through a disciple’s disguise and was eventually sealed by the Ancestor, becoming a true mortal, laboring under the Ghost Mother of Ephemera.

This piqued many disciples’ curiosity about the Red Dust Supreme.

The Red Dust Supreme was assigned by the Ghost Mother of Ephemera to plant medicinal herbs, which belong to Wushi, not the usual medicine fields or gardens Gu An visited.

Every few days, someone would come to see him as if observing a caged beast, pointing and discussing.

This made the Red Dust Supreme feel pained and hurt. He used to roam the Human World, always watching its joys and sorrows, but now his role was reversed.

The most unfortunate part was that no matter how much it hurt, he had to endure it, with no other option.

As a former Celestial Dao Venerable, he wouldn’t kneel to beg Gu An for mercy.

The more it was so, the more he wanted to see what Gu An intended to do with him.

On this particular day.

While pulling weeds in the medicine field, the Red Dust Supreme saw Gu An and the Ghost Mother of Ephemera walking down the path with a third person he had never met before.

"The Demon Race has completely fractured, Fang Qiu Demon Emperor has slain an emperor, now there will be a spectacle. It’s said some Immortal Gods are recruiting Fang Qiu Demon Emperor. Ancestor, what do you think of the Demon Race’s future?"

Su Han, walking alongside Gu An, couldn’t stop asking questions, extremely excited. He always paid close attention to worldly affairs, enjoying watching great figures compete, having once been involved himself.
