The first time Gu An took the first bite of the cang fruit, he felt a heat flow into his stomach, making his whole body warm.

It works!

He immediately began to eat voraciously, and after a while, he had devoured the huge cang fruit.

While digesting it, he brought up the attribute panel and began to look forward to the increase in life span.

However, the wait lasted only half an hour.

Life expectancy has not increased at all!

His qi and blood have increased a lot, and his physical strength is stronger.

"What's going on? Is my level too high, or is this fruit only suitable for spiritual beasts and monsters?" Gu An was secretly confused.

He looked at the white spirit rat on the table. It was still sleeping soundly. Its lifespan had not continued to increase, but its aura was steadily improving.

Just wait and see!

The white spirit rat slept for three days. When it woke up, it was as big as an adult cat. It jumped into Gu An's arms and rubbed against him affectionately, but its eyes were looking at the cabinet behind it.

"Don't eat too much!"

Gu An, who was reading a book, hummed, if he let it grow any longer, it would definitely cause trouble, especially Xiaochuan and others would be curious.

Like Lu Jiujia and Ye Lan, they will go to the outer gate sooner or later. Gu An doesn't want them to know too many of his secrets.

The white spirit rat looked at Gu An pitifully and nodded, which made Gu An's eyes widen.

Did it actually understand it?

Gu An pointed to the side with his right hand and said, "Come over here."

The white spirit rat jumped over immediately without any hesitation.

He continued to give instructions, and as long as they were not complicated, the white spirit rat could follow them, which made him like it even more.

Finally looks like a spiritual beast!

Gu An picked up the white spirit rat and took it out of the house.

It is autumn now, and all the parks are piled with dead leaves. Ogawa and others are cleaning, and the Medicine Valley is peaceful.

Gu An walked down the stairs, put down the white spirit rat, and said, "Don't eat it randomly."

After speaking, he pointed at the mouth of the white spirit rat. It nodded in understanding, then turned around and jumped away.

Gu An looked strange.

How does it look like a rabbit?

Could it be that not only the lifespan has been increased, but also the genes have been tampered with?

Ye Lan was the first to notice the white rat, mainly because she was attracted by Gu An, and then she saw a big white rat running towards her, which scared her face.

"There's a rat demon!"

Ye Lan exclaimed, which immediately attracted the attention of Lu Jiujia, Xiaochuan, and Wu Xin.

When they saw the white spirit rat, they were immediately frightened. They had never seen such a big rat.

"White Spirit Rat, slow down!"

When Gu An's voice came, the white spirit mouse immediately stopped and looked back at him, then turned and walked towards the forest. Its speed was not as fast as before.

Seeing this, Ye Lan and others put down their tools and ran towards Gu An.

"Elder brother, is that the white spirit rat you raised? Why is it so big?"

"It should be another white spirit rat, right?"

"It feels a bit clumsy and has bad legs and feet."

"The bloodline of this spiritual beast is not simple."

Listening to the discussion of his junior brothers and junior sisters, Gu An smiled and said nothing and let them guess.

Gu An looked at everyone and said, "I'm going to go to the outer gate in a while. Who wants to go with me?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone except Wu Xin wanted to go.

"What a great opportunity!" Wu Xin's expression remained unchanged, but his heart was extremely excited.

After some competition, Gu An finally chose to take Ye Lan and Xiao Chuan to the outer gate, and the time was set seven days later.

Why seven days?

Because he planned to explore the Eight Scenery Cave Heaven first.

Gu An turned his head and looked towards the entrance of the valley. A figure came from the entrance of the valley, it was Li Ya.

After not seeing him for many years, Li Ya has gained a bit more vicissitudes of life and coldness. His black clothes were blown by the autumn wind, and paired with the sword at his waist, he could not suppress the aura of a cold and arrogant swordsman.

The four people in Xiaochuan also noticed Li Ya, and Li Ya's image made them nervous.

No matter who comes to their medicine valley, his status is basically higher than theirs, not to mention that this person is not easy to mess with at first sight.

Gu An checked Li Ya's lifespan and found that he had reached the fourth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

It’s really fast!

He is indeed the first person I discovered who has the fate of the protagonist!

Gu An immediately walked over, followed closely by the others.

Li Ya glanced at everything in the medicine valley. When his eyes fell on Gu An, he felt a little dazed.

Back then, Gu An was always following others, but now he can lead other disciples. It is true that things have changed.

Gu An came to him, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Brother Li, long time no see."

Injured?

Gu An could feel that his energy and blood were disordered, his breathing was short and shallow, and he obviously had internal injuries.

Li Ya smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for many years. Where is the master and senior brother? Where is Meng Lang?"

Gu An said helplessly: "Master's deadline is approaching and he left some time ago. After you left, senior brother also left the valley. As for Meng Lang, he went to take the outer sect examination and never came back."

Hearing this, Li Ya was stunned.

Xiaochuan and others stood behind, whispering. They probably guessed Li Ya's identity. Meng Lang had mentioned it before, saying that there used to be a royal family member who worked here as a handyman and called him brothers.

Li Ya sighed: "It turns out you are the only one left."

Gu An asked: "Go upstairs and sit down?"

Li Ya nodded.

The reason why he came here was not only to return to his old place, but also to recuperate here. Only here could he feel safe.

Gu An took Li Ya to the attic and motioned to others to continue cleaning up the fallen leaves.

All the way to the Valley Master's attic, when Li Ya stepped onto the stairs, the feeling in his heart reached its peak. He couldn't help but cough, and his face turned pale.

Gu An, who was walking in front, changed his expression slightly.

He felt a faint soul wave from Li Ya.

Good guy!

Does this guy really have an old grandfather with him?

Gu An turned around and asked with concern: "Brother Li, what's wrong with you?"

Li Ya waved his hand and said: "It's okay, I'm a little injured."

"Injured? Let's stay here for now. There are plenty of places to stay in Medicine Valley." Gu An said immediately.

Li Ya nodded with a smile and said to himself: "Junior brother Gu is still so considerate, I have to give him some support this time."

The two of them walked into the house. After Gu An asked Li Ya to sit down, he started making tea for him.

Li Ya looked around the room, and his eyes were quickly attracted to the cang fruits in the wooden cabinet.

In the past three days, Gu An put most of the cang vine fruits into storage bags, leaving only two in the wooden cabinet to prevent the white spirit rats from eating them.

If the white spirit rat really ate it secretly, he was reluctant to kill it, so he simply hid the cang fruit.

"This fruit..."

Li Ya narrowed his eyes, but he didn't look for long, and his eyes quickly fell on Gu An.

After not seeing each other for many years, when he saw Gu An again, he was actually surprised by Gu An's temperament. Although Gu An was also handsome in the past, he did not have the eye-catching temperament now. He looked like a great monk from the inner sect, calm and elegant.

There is a trace of the appearance of being out of the dust.

If he hadn't been able to feel that Gu An's aura was only at the fourth level of the Qi Training Realm, he would have really suspected that the person in front of him was not the Gu An he knew.

While the water was boiling, Gu An came to the table and sat down, chatting with Li Ya.

In order to keep the atmosphere from getting colder, Gu An asked about the lives of the outer disciples, and Li Ya answered them one by one.

"To become an outer sect disciple, you must complete an outer sect reward mission every year?" Gu An asked curiously.
