Gu Daoist Master
Chapter 23
Chapter 23 – Raising a Gu is like raising a mistress
The sun had already set.
The sunset glow was still burning in the sky. The mountains far away in the distance were covered in a thick layer of grey ash, gradually turning to black.
In the academy, a day’s class was over. The students walked out from the academy in groups of twos and threes.
“I’m really happy today, I learnt quite a few things. Especially how I got to learn how to use the Moonlight Gu.”
“The way the moonblade flies in the air looks so cool. It’s too bad that my talent isn’t enough, so in the future I can only be a logistics Gu Master, I won’t be able to go onto the battlefield.” The young teenagers happily chatted away.
A few of them called their friends over.
“Let’s go and eat, we can drink some rice wine while we’re at it, what do you think?”
“Sure, that’s not a bad suggestion.”
“You guys go on first, I need to go to the store beside the academy’s Gu room and buy a grass puppet. It will be easy to practice at home with it.”
Fang Yuan went to the Gu room alone.
The academy’s Gu room kept quite a few Rank one Gu worms. There were many types and variations, and Fang Yuan’s Moonlight Gu was taken freely from inside.
Once in a while the students would have a free chance to pick a Gu worm. If one wanted to get extra Gu, they would need to pay up.
In this short time Fang Yuan had no wish to refine any other Gu. He walked to the building beside the Gu room – it was a small store.
In the store there were seven students, each of them negotiating over the counter with the store owner for buying grass puppets.
“It’s you, junior.” The Rank one Gu Master responsible for the store was in his twenties. When he saw Fang Yuan, he automatically greeted him while bargaining with his customers.
Fang Yuan was taken by surprise, finding out that this Gu Master was Jiang Ya. It was the young Gu Master that had taught the hunters a lesson in the inn.
“Ah, it’s you senior.” Fang Yuan nodded his head, his face expressionless.
