Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1078: Chapter 563: Trapped Like a Turtle in a Jar

Two days later, the group left the Qikong Sect.

The Sect Leader of Qikong Sect escorted them all the way, reluctant to see them go.

”Brother Gu, if you ever have the chance to visit our Qikong Sect again, you are always welcome at any time.”

”Alright, if there’s a chance, we will return.”

After bidding farewell once again, Gu Sheng led the group away and returned to Yunhai.

Gu Sheng wanted to deliver the medicinal herbs to Wushuang Taoist as quickly as possible, so they traveled swiftly.

Shi Lou and the others, being slightly less skilled, could only follow with difficulty.

Just before reaching Yunhai, Gu Sheng suddenly stopped.

Watching his action, Hong Mei was somewhat puzzled.

”Gu Sheng, why did you stop?”

”There’s an ambush outside Yunhai.”

”What? An ambush? Is it set up by my master?”

”It’s not the aura of Wushuang Taoist. The ambushers are someone else.”

”Brother Sheng, could it be Saint Ya?”

After Shi Lou asked, Gu Sheng shook his head again.

”No, I can recognize their aura, it’s not them.”

Upon hearing this, everyone was bewildered.

If it’s not the two Taoists, who could it be? Could someone else have discovered Wushuang Taoist’s whereabouts?

As everyone was speculating, Gu Sheng directly took out the Fire Spirit Dagger.

”Wait here, I’ll go check.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu quickly followed.

”Gu Sheng, let me go with you, so we can support each other.”

”No need, wait here, I’ll be back soon.”

After speaking, Gu Sheng left quickly, disappearing within a few breaths.

With no other option, the group could only wait in place.

Gu Sheng advanced all the way, following the unfamiliar aura.

Sure enough, there was a group arranging an array outside Yunhai.

Gu Sheng bypassed the array and quietly approached, feeling the aura of others again, his expression drastically changed.

He stared fiercely at them, his fists clenching tightly but eventually opted to leave.

Seeing him return, everyone gathered around him immediately.

”Gu Sheng, what’s going on? Who are the ambushers?”

Hong Mei was the first to ask, and everyone stared tensely at Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng’s face darkened, squeezing out a few words from between his teeth: ”Qingxia Sect.”

Upon hearing this, Shi Lou and the others’ expressions changed, while Hong Mei and Bai Yu were puzzled.

”Brother Sheng, are you sure it’s Qingxia Sect?”

As he asked, Huang Shan’s fists were already clenched, and anger was subtly surging from his body.

Gu Sheng sent a strand of aura towards him, dissipating his anger before nodding.

”I wouldn’t mistake it, it’s definitely Qingxia Sect, seems Ling Xiao has recovered.”

”That old bastard, not only is he alive, but he’s come to find trouble again! Not killing him is hard to relieve the hatred in my heart!”

Feeling the resurgence of aura on him, Gu Sheng promptly suppressed it.

”Don’t rush, I promised to avenge you and I will keep my word. Right now, the priority is delivering the medicinal herbs to Wushuang Taoist, and then we’ll deal with them.”

Understanding his intentions, Huang Shan nodded.

”Brother Sheng, if possible, can I kill him myself?”

Looking at the plea in his eyes, Gu Sheng nodded.

”You may.”

As soon as he spoke, Lan Yao approached.

”Gu Sheng, what happened? Do you have a vendetta with Qingxia Sect? Weren’t they wiped out?”

After he finished, Bai Yu continued: ”I also recall Qingxia Sect was wiped out, how did they find their way here again? Gu Sheng, are they targeting you or Wushuang Taoist?”

”It should be targeting us. They indeed were wiped out, but back then Ling Xiao escaped, taking a few people with him. Now they must have regained some power to show up again. Don’t rush, let’s deliver the herbs to Wushuang Taoist first, then deal with the rest.”

The group nodded repeatedly, heading towards Yunhai.

They avoided everything Qingxia Sect set up, following Hong Mei into a small path.

On the way, Lan Yao curiously questioned, eventually asking Huang Shan.

”Gu Sheng, why does Huang Shan react like this to them? Does he have a grudge?”

Looking at the perpetually stern-faced Huang Shan, Gu Sheng sighed softly.

”Indeed there’s a grudge, I rescued Huang Shan from Qingxia Sect’s Soul Refining Cave.”

Upon hearing this, Lan Yao, Bai Yu, and others inhaled sharply.

”You mean the infamous and feared Soul Refining Cave?”

”That’s right, Huang Shan and the others were rescued by me from there. At that time, there were dozens of people in the Soul Training Cave who helped us escape with their lives; only then did Huang Shan and others survive. When they escaped, they were on their last breath.”

Knowing the situation, everyone was livid.

They finally understood Huang Shan’s behavior, making sense of his past inability to remain calm. Now it seemed Huang Shan was restrained enough because if it were them, they would have gone to kill him immediately.

”Don’t worry Huang Shan, we will definitely avenge this grudge for you.”

After Bai Yu spoke, Lan Yao solemnly nodded.

”They will taste the suffering you endured! We will surely help you seek vengeance!”

Afterward, Hong Mei earnestly said, ”They dare invade our territory; we, the Mirror Gate, won’t let this go easily. With us united, they won’t escape alive.”

Listening to their words, Huang Shan’s eyes suddenly welled up.

”Thank you all...”

He barely uttered these few words before choked up, unable to continue.
