Gu Chi chose the Fuyan Sect as his target after comprehensive consideration.

The first reason is that the Fuyan Sect is easy to bully.

The Fuyan Sect does not have any Transcendent Realm cultivators, and Yan Qianxi's cultivation is said to be only at the early stage of the third realm, making it one of the weaker second-rate forces.

Another reason is that the Fuyan Sect is easy to control.

Relying on the Speech Spirit Technique to change a person's cognition can only be maintained for a short period of time. Before the effect wears off, Gu Chi used hypnosis on Yan Qianxi and then had Yan Qianxi bind a Life Lamp on himself, which he handed over to Gu Chi.

With this double insurance, even if Yan Qianxi realizes it later, it would be useless. If he doesn't want to die, he can only obediently listen to Gu Chi's words.

Furthermore, the Fuyan Sect and the Demon-Hunting Bureau have a cooperative relationship, with the Fuyan Sect being subordinate to the Demon-Hunting Bureau. By controlling the Fuyan Sect, it is equivalent to planting an undercover agent within the Demon-Hunting Bureau, allowing him to receive information about any major actions of the Demon-Hunting Bureau as soon as possible.

Moreover, the Fuyan Sect itself is not small in scale and also controls many small sects like the Mountain Ghost Sect, which can help gather cultivation techniques. It is like a long-term and sustainable supply station for Dao Yun.

Killing three birds with one stone, that's why Gu Chi came.

As for the Disorderly Sword Gate...

That was purely a pleasant surprise.

After the elders repeatedly assured that they would find a way to deliver the cultivation techniques and spirit stones to the Fuyan Sect, Gu Chi gave them a chance.

If they could deliver the goods within seven days, he wouldn't go to the Disorderly Sword Gate for a stroll, which would save him some trouble.

These few days, Gu Chi's life was very comfortable.

After counting the Fuyan Sect disciples and confirming that there were no players from The Insidious, he felt at ease and acted like a boss.

"The Patriarch has been in seclusion for a long time and hasn't eaten anything. Today, I'm a bit greedy and plan to have some meat. I heard that Lan Mansion has good braised pork knuckles, so go buy some."

"Yes."

This novel is available on "p𝑎wread.com".

"I also heard that Qi Guan City has the best fruit wine in the Frontier State. Get two pots of each flavor."

"Yes."

"And also the roasted chicken from Luo Shui Town, three of them."

"This..." The disciple hesitated slightly, wanting to speak but stopping.

Gu Chi raised an eyebrow. "What? Is there a problem?"

The disciple asked cautiously, "May I ask, Patriarch, what kind of roasted chicken?"

Gu Chi: "..."

Of course, it's the kind of roasted chicken you eat!

He widened his eyes and said, "Tell the shop to add more spice!"

Disciple: "Yes!"

"Wait."

The disciple turned around but then turned back. "Patriarch, is there anything else?"

In the main hall, Gu Chi sat in the position of the Patriarch, with a small stool in front of him, and Qing Chan and Yan Yanyan were currently massaging his legs.

This demeanor didn't look like that of a Patriarch, but more like a playboy who enjoyed having fun.

Gu Chi asked the two women, "Is there anything you want to eat?"

Qing Chan obediently said, "Qing Chan will follow the Young Master's arrangements."

Gu Chi looked at the slender figure of the girl and said, "Then you should also eat chicken to nourish your body."

"What about you?" Gu Chi looked at Yan Yanyan.

The girl thought for a moment and said, "How about the osmanthus cake from Shanghuai?"

Yan Yanyan was no longer as afraid of Gu Chi as before. After a few days of getting along, she found that this Patriarch was usually very gentle, with a much better temper than her own father, and his strength was unfathomable.

The most important thing was that Gu Chi did not make any excessive demands on the Fuyan Sect. He only looked at some cultivation techniques and took some spirit stones. He would occasionally ask her to massage his shoulders and legs. Compared to the methods the Fuyan Sect usually used to oppress other sects, this Patriarch was incredibly gentle.

Yan Yanyan even felt that it might not be a bad thing to serve the Patriarch for the rest of her life...

The disciple in charge of purchasing was dismissed, and another disciple entered the main hall.

"Reporting to the Patriarch, the elder of the Disorderly Sword Gate requests an audience."

It hasn't been seven days yet, but they are quite fast.

Gu Chi put down the "Frontier State Chronicles" in his hand and said, "Let him in."

"Yes."

Soon, the elder of the Disorderly Sword Gate arrived in the main hall, accompanied by the young man from before, and two disciples carrying a large iron box.

"Elder Li Jiu of the Disorderly Sword Gate pays respects to the Patriarch." The elder respectfully said.

Gu Chi turned his head, his gaze fell on the young man, and said, "Elder Li Jiu, what is the meaning of this?"

He came, but he also brought along the disrespectful person from before.

He called me a righteous cultivator, and said that the Speech Spirit Technique is demonic arts.

Gu Chi usually doesn't hold grudges, but if you bring someone repeatedly in front of me, that's your fault.

Li Jiu quickly explained, "I specifically brought him here to apologize to the Patriarch."

As he spoke, he pulled Li Zhouhe, and whispered, "Hurry up!"

Li Zhouhe had already been severely reprimanded by Li Jiu when he went back last time. He had already softened, and he came today to apologize to Gu Chi. But when he saw his fiancée massaging Gu Chi's legs like a servant and not even giving him a glance, Li Zhouhe almost blurted out "evil cultivator" again. He also wanted to add "bastard" as a bonus!Fortunately, Li Jiu had been quite harsh at the time, giving Li Zhouhe a taste of the cruelty of society. Despite appearing healthy on the surface, he was actually bruised all over under his clothes. This experience had taught Li Zhouhe a lesson, and he dared not speak recklessly anymore. However, his memory was not very good, and his words still carried a strong sense of resentment.

"I was wrong before, and I offended you. Please forgive me. If you want to punish someone, punish me, Li Zhouhe, alone. Please don't make things difficult for Yanyan!"

He was even unwilling to address Gu Chi as 'ancestor'.

Li Zhouhe spoke righteously, showing a manly spirit, but it almost made Li Jiu slap him on the spot out of anger.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chi became interested and waved his hand to stop Li Jiu from losing his temper. He asked Li Zhouhe, "Do you like Yanyan a lot?"

Li Zhouhe admitted, "She is my fiancée."

Gu Chi was not aware of this, and Yan Yanyan had never mentioned it to him.

He looked at the young girl and asked, "Is this true?"

Yan Yanyan bit her lip slightly, "Yes."

After saying this, she added, "But the marriage has not been completely settled. If the ancestor disagrees, Yanyan will not marry."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhouhe stared in disbelief, "Yanyan, you..."

Yan Yanyan, however, felt no guilt about this. She had no romantic feelings for Li Zhouhe and had only met him a few times, which could be counted on one hand. If it weren't for her father's approval of the relationship between the Disorderly Sword Gate and the Sword Sect, she would not have agreed to marry a man she didn't like.

If she could use the ancestor's words to break off this marriage, it would be more than perfect.

Gu Chi remained silent.

If Yan Yanyan really didn't want to marry, he could indeed help her cancel the engagement.

Forced marriages are not sweet, and he personally didn't like such things.

The question was, how should he cancel it? Reasoning? Or direct violence?

Seeing Gu Chi silent, Yan Yanyan thought he didn't intend to help her, and she became a bit anxious. Before meeting Gu Chi, she was fine, treating her life as if she was just partnering with someone to get by. But after spending a few days with Gu Chi, her mindset had completely changed.

In every aspect, Li Zhouhe was no match for Gu Chi, not even close.

So Yan Yanyan gritted her teeth, made up her mind, and directly voiced her thoughts, "Yanyan will not go against the ancestor's wishes. If the ancestor also wants Yanyan to marry, Yanyan will marry. But even if I marry Li Zhouhe, Yanyan will stay by the ancestor's side to serve him. This will never change!"

Li Zhouhe: "???"

Qing Chan: "......"

Li Jiu: "......"

Gu Chi: "......"

Oh, so my last name is Cao.
