Gu An stood by the river and watched for quite a while, then stepped over the stream and walked toward the mountain peak where he lived.
Nearly half an hour later, he finally entered his courtyard. As it happened, Shangguan Xian'er was there too, discussing a major affair under heaven with Shen Zhen.
Gu An was already used to it. Though Wushi did not interfere in worldly affairs, it was not completely cut off from the world either. The disciples always had dealings with the sects under heaven, and whenever there was some great matter in the world, the Wushi Disciples would always show their faces.
Of course, this was also what the sects under heaven wanted. With Wushi Disciples appearing, whether it was to expound the Dao or host a Dao assembly, it brought honor to their faces and also displayed their own status.

"So far, a second Innate Golden Immortal has yet to be born under heaven. Tell me, can the Demon Emperor succeed?"
"He is still far from the Innate Golden Immortal."
"But that Innate Golden Immortal said he has the makings of a Golden Immortal. And at this grand gathering of the Demon Race, the Demon Emperor will display the process of breaking through to Mystic Origin Carefree Immortal. If he succeeds, he will be the youngest Mystic Origin Carefree Immortal."
"That is only because we Wushi do not compare ourselves with the outside world."
Faced with Shangguan Xian'er's curiosity, Shen Zhen seemed calm, completely uninterested in that Demon Emperor.
She glanced at Gu An and did not pay him much attention.
