Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1079: Chapter 563: Trapped Like Rats in a Jar (Part 2)

Seeing him like this, Gu Sheng stepped forward and patted his shoulder.

”It’s alright. Their daring to come here proves you have a chance for revenge. Let’s go back first and then deal with them.”

Huang Shan nodded vigorously and followed him step by step.

Back in Yunhai, everyone went directly to see Wushuang Taoist.

Wushuang Taoist had long sensed their presence. As soon as they opened the door, Wushuang Taoist came out.

Seeing them all returned alive and intact, Wushuang Taoist smiled.

”Not bad, everyone came back alive. How did it go this time? Did you find out their whereabouts?”

Hong Mei stepped forward and eagerly recounted the whole story.

Upon learning that Gu Sheng had poisoned everyone in the Fan Sect, Wushuang Taoist’s eyes flashed with surprise.

”As expected of someone I had my eye on, truly skillful. With this, Saint Ya will be overwhelmed, which is extremely beneficial for us.”

”This time we made a mistake, unable to finish them off completely. Next time, we’ll try our best.”

”No matter, they are just rats and insects hiding in the dark; hunting them cleanly isn’t easy. Plus, Saint Ya brought that old guy along. It’s good enough that you were able to injure them and come back alive. Gu Sheng, things have exceeded my expectations, I am very satisfied.”

Understanding what she meant, Gu Sheng presented the herbs to her.

”Taoist, these were retrieved by Lan Yao and Bai Yu from the Fan Sect’s territory. I overheard them discussing how these herbs were meant to harm you. I thought the poison on you might be related to these things, please take a look.”

Seeing these herbs, Wushuang Taoist’s eyes lit up.

”Exactly! The poison on me is indeed related to these herbs. I’ve been searching bitterly for years, and didn’t expect you to bring them back!”

Upon learning these herbs were truly useful, everyone was extremely delighted.

Wushuang Taoist looked at them and with a wave of her hand, several martial art manuals landed in front of them.

”As a token of gratitude, please take these manuals. Our Sky Blue Sect practices the orthodox methods; these manuals can be cultivated by any sect, no need to worry.”

Holding the manuals, everyone grinned widely, even Huang Shan had a hint of a smile on his face.

”Thank you, Wushuang Taoist.”

”No need to thank me, I should be the one thanking you. If not for me depleting many treasures after years of seclusion, I would reward you grandly. But don’t worry, once I reemerge, you’ll be provided with plenty of good things.”

With her words, everyone smiled even more happily.

At this moment, Gu Sheng asked, ”Taoist, are you aware that someone is ambushing outside Yunhai?”

”I know, these people are likely targeting you, not me, right?”

”I’m sorry for troubling you.”

”No worry, we are now in the same boat, we should collaborate. I sensed them as soon as they arrived. To leave some targets for you, I refrained from killing them. They’re setting up an array there, aren’t they? I’ve laid a layer of an array outside of theirs, just waiting for you all to return and close the net.”

Learning this, Gu Sheng and the others thanked her again.

Wushuang Taoist took out a ruby, smiling as she handed it to him.

”Crush this gemstone, and my array will explode. Feel free to kill them; this array is harmless to you.”

Upon knowing she had set everything in place, Gu Sheng turned to Huang Shan and handed the ruby directly to him.

”You do it. You’re the most suitable for this.”

”Thank you, Brother Sheng.”

”No need to thank me, thank Wushuang Taoist instead.”

After Huang Shan thanked again, they quickly turned and left.

Seeing Hong Mei also followed, Wushuang Taoist called out to her.

”They’re already like fish in a barrel, no need for so many people. Stay behind and help me with the herbs.”

”Master, I promised Huang Shan to help him.”

”Haven’t I given him the ruby? My help is as good as yours, so you don’t need to go, stay.”

Hearing this, Gu Sheng added, ”We’ll be back soon, stay and accompany the Taoist; we’ll return to assist once we handle the matters there.”

”Sect Leader Hong, please stay; your intentions are appreciated. We have enough manpower for now, please accompany the Taoist.”

Upon hearing Huang Shan’s words, Hong Mei nodded.

”Alright, we’re all in Yunhai. If there’s any trouble, release spiritual energy, and we’ll come to rescue immediately.”

Gu Sheng and Huang Shan nodded, then turned to leave.

Returning to the outskirts of Yunhai, Gu Sheng once again sensed the aura here. After feeling it, he couldn’t help but chuckle.

Seeing him laugh, Lan Yao was puzzled.

”Gu Sheng, why are you laughing?”

”I always thought there was something strange about the aura here, thinking it was some unfamiliar sect causing trouble. Now I know, it’s the aura from Wushuang Taoist. I even thought it was some major sect coming.”

”No worries now, catching turtles in the jar, just grab them directly.”

”Yes, in a bit we’ll meet them, kill some to relieve our anger, and then let Huang Shan crush the ruby.”

Upon hearing this, Huang Shan hurriedly said, ”Brother Sheng, my fists are itching. Let me kill some too; if I don’t personally engage, I won’t be able to relieve the anger in my heart.”

After thinking it over, Gu Sheng nodded.

”Alright, we’ll do as you say today.”

Everyone moved forward, directly stepping into the Qingxia Sect’s encirclement.

Gu Sheng raised his hand, and the small tripod immediately flew into the air, hovering above everyone, blocking most of their cultivation.

Seeing their array waver, Gu Sheng sneered, ”Ling Xiao, didn’t expect after so long of not seeing you, your strength has not improved, truly laughable.”

As Gu Sheng’s words fell, a person flashed out from the dark.

”Shut up! Do not insult Ling Xiao. If it weren’t for you destroying our Soul Refining Cave, our Qingxia would not have been ousted from Jianghu! It’s all your doing; today we’ll make you pay with your life!”

Upon hearing that, Gu Sheng sneered.

”I thought it was Ling Xiao himself, creating such a clumsy scene. Didn’t expect it was just you minions; no wonder the strength is so weak. If I can single-handedly destroy your Qingxia Sect, I can single-handedly kill you. You think you can take my life? Dream on! Huang Shan, go!”

At Gu Sheng’s command, the eager Huang Shan immediately charged forward.

With a long knife in hand, his fury exploded completely, leaving blood in his wake.

Seeing him employ such reckless fighting solely to claim the opponent’s life, Gu Sheng frowned.

”Shi Lou, Er Gou, go help him.”

Understanding his intentions, Shi Lou and Er Gou immediately stepped up to assist.

The people from Qingxia Sect watched as their companions were forced to retreat step by step, their anger rising.

”Gu Sheng, our Qingxia Sect is not the same as before. Our lives aren’t for you to take easily; today I’ll kill you and bring your head to Ling Xiao!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng burst into laughter as if he’d heard an amusing joke.

Already enraged, the Qingxia Sect members were now more furious upon hearing his laughter.

”Gu Sheng, prepare to die!”

As soon as the words fell, he charged straight at Gu Sheng.

Seeing his movement, Lan Yao and Bai Yu exchanged glances and rushed forward.

Lan Yao, second-in-command of the Elf Clan, and Bai Yu, the Young Master of White Cloud Sect, charging together against Qingxia Sect’s petty followers—how could they withstand it?

Gu Sheng stood there, unmoved, as the Qingxia Sect members had already suffered significant casualties.

Seeing their sorry state, Gu Sheng coldly smirked.

”Weren’t you clamoring for my life? Here it is, laid before you. If you can kill them, you can come for my life. But whether you have the skill to reach me shows your competence.”

With his arms folded, Gu Sheng watched them. The man exchanged a glance with Gu Sheng, his eyes filled with immense hatred, yet he had no power to overcome Lan Yao standing in front of him!
