Saint Who Lay Low
When Gu An was just a servant, he accidentally broke a pot containing a spiritual flower. In his fear and panic, he discovered that he had actually seized twelve years of lifespan from it!
From that moment on, a path to immortality stretched out before Gu An!
To cultivate immortality peacefully, Gu An chose to become a menial disciple of the Tai Xuan Sect, tending to medicinal herbs every day and seizing their lifespans to further his cultivation.
Through lifespan evolution, his basic cultivation techniques continually transformed, eventually evolving from simple foundational arts into divine abilities capable of reaching the heavens!
Eras passed, stars shifted, and the mortal world experienced countless changes.
Eventually, legends of immortals began to spread among humanity.
Gu An, now revered as an immortal, spent half of his lifespan to transcend the limits of the immortal path, achieving the realm of a Saint, rising above the Heavenly Dao itself.
However, one day, a white-robed elder, exuding an aura of immortality, came to visit Gu An.
"This humble Taoist is the Star Lord of Xuanqing in the heavens. The Great Emperor Taihao has heard of the virtuous deeds you have done in the mortal realm—your repeated efforts to save countless lives, accumulating immeasurable merit. The Emperor has sent me down to summon you to join the ranks of the immortals and assume the position of Immortal Officer, Heavenly Horse Guardian."
Gu An asked, "May I inquire, what are the duties of the Heavenly Horse Guardian?"
"The Heavenly Court possesses divine steeds capable of traversing the heavens and earth, entering and exiting the realms of yin and yang. The role of the Heavenly Horse Guardian is to tend to and feed these divine steeds."
Hmm? Tend to horses?

Seems like a really cool hidden gem but before I start reading it, I have one single question. 1. What is the character of protagonist? Is he evil or good. If any how much and where does his bottom line lay.
