Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1068: Chapter 558: She’s Really Cute

Wushuang Taoist once again talked about recruiting Gu Sheng, and incidentally mentioned the future arrangements for Stone Village.

Upon hearing her words, the elders of Stone Village nodded frequently, trying to conceal their inner excitement.

When they heard about the relocation plans for Stone Village, the smiles on everyone’s faces gradually froze.

Seeing their reaction, Gu Sheng stepped forward and said, ”Wushuang Taoist, Stone Village has settled there for generations. If they are asked to relocate entirely, I’m afraid they may find it difficult to part with their homeland. Since the Sky Blue Sect is still hidden, perhaps it would be better to let Stone Village stay and discuss this further when the Sky Blue Sect reveals itself. What do you think?”

”Alright, if you move now, unexpected issues might arise. Gu Sheng, you are indeed considerate. Then let Stone Village remain, and it’s just as well we have some members of the Sky Blue Sect without a place to settle, still wandering the lands. Let them return to Stone Village with you, so they can look after each other in the future.”

Upon hearing this, the elders nodded frequently.

”Thank you, Wushuang Taoist!”

After expressing their gratitude, Gu Sheng coughed lightly on the side.

”Elders, you should refer to her as Sect Leader now.”

After Gu Sheng said this, everyone realized their mistake and quickly corrected themselves.

After speaking, they exchanged glances and somewhat awkwardly looked at Wushuang Taoist.

”Sect Leader, since our Stone Village has been incorporated into the Sky Blue Sect, in the future we... we...”

The Third Elder hesitated, but Wushuang Taoist just smiled.

”In the future, you can still regard yourselves as elders, just with a different rank order. As for the other members of Stone Village, they are now the Inner Sect disciples of the Sky Blue Sect.”

Listening to Wushuang Taoist’s arrangements, everyone expressed their gratitude once more.

After only a day’s stay, the elders of Stone Village hurriedly returned, taking with them a Token from the Sky Blue Sect for facilitating future meetings with traveling Sky Blue Sect members.

Gu Sheng escorted them out of Yunhai, and before parting, the Third Elder pushed the Village Chief’s Token into his hand.

”Gu Sheng, this should be yours. Please accept it. Although it doesn’t hold much value now, it represents your leadership of us.”

”Third Elder, this...”

”No need for further words, just take it. Gu Sheng, thank you.”

After a solemn expression of gratitude, the Third Elder did not wait for his reply and led the group away.

Gu Sheng watched them until their figures completely disappeared before returning to Yunhai.

In Wushuang Taoist’s courtyard, the two sat facing each other.

Taking out a box, Wushuang Taoist pushed it directly in front of him.

”Gu Sheng, take these things. Since you’ve become an envoy of the Sky Blue Sect, you’ll need something to prove your identity for recognizing our members during future travels.”

Understanding what he meant, Gu Sheng nodded and accepted the box.

Seeing the box containing hairpins and other items, he slightly raised an eyebrow.

”Wushuang Taoist, these are...”

”These are related to Saint Ya. You can familiarize yourself with their aura. As far as I know, since the death of the Evil Demon, Saint Ya disappeared. She left from East Mountain. You should search to see if you can find any trace of her.”

While speaking, Wushuang Taoist took out the hairpin and held it in front of him, saying, ”Saint Ya also has a sect similar to Mirror Gate called Fan Sect, mostly consisting of women, each with poison in their body, all nurtured by Saint Ya. The Fan Sect contributed significantly to her efforts and harmed many innocent lives. If possible, eliminate Fan Sect first to cut off her claws, then look for her.”

”Is the strength of Fan Sect above Mirror Gate?”

”I only saw them once, during a fight with the Evil Demon. They are not weak, but their tactics differ from ours, similar to the evil methods of the Evil Sect. They use any means necessary to take lives. Be very cautious if you encounter them.”

Listening to her words, Gu Sheng nodded thoughtfully.

”Okay, I understand, but your injury...”

”Don’t worry, I have my methods. Though slow in recovery, it won’t be life-threatening. It’s due to the slow recovery that I can’t take action, which is why I recruited you. Gu Sheng, from now on, let Hong Mei follow you. Use the people from Mirror Gate. Hong Mei rarely listens to anyone other than me; you need to get along well with her.”

When she said this, Wushuang Taoist’s tone carried a hint of deeper meaning.

Gu Sheng pursed his lips and nodded lightly.

”Alright, I’ll follow the Sect Leader’s arrangements.”

Wushuang Taoist was very satisfied with his response.

”With the Token, you can act freely within the Sky Blue Sect and Mirror Gate; no one will stop you. Do whatever you want. I’m tired, you should go.”

After saying goodbye, Gu Sheng left alone.

Holding the box, as he turned a corner, Hong Mei appeared from behind a tree.

”Gu Sheng, what did Master say to you?”

Looking at him, Hong Mei blinked her big eyes playfully, full of curiosity.

Seeing her like this, Gu Sheng couldn’t help but laugh.

”Do you want to know?”

”A little.”

”Only a little, huh? Then I won’t say.”

Gu Sheng deliberately teased her and turned to leave.

Seeing him truly not speaking, Hong Mei became anxious and hurriedly jumped out to block him.

”Not just a little! I really want to know! What did Master say to you?”

Thinking for a moment, Gu Sheng directly shoved the box into her arms.

”Help me take this back, and I’ll tell you.”

Having said that, he walked away briskly, not daring to say another word.
