Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1137: Chapter 592: Wang Chunshi’s High-Handed Attitude (2)

At this moment, Wang Chushi stood at the doorway, looking at Gu Sheng’s back with an annoyed expression, but he didn’t speak up to stop him.

Gu Sheng ignored him, leading the group faster and faster, directly walking out of his sect.

Once outside, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Gu Sheng, what you did today was brilliant. This kind of person can’t be indulged! We handled such a big matter for him, and he still treats us with such an attitude, it’s simply despicable!"

After Lan Yao spoke, Bai Yu nodded at the side: "Indeed, I think he can’t let go of his high posture, trying to pressure us with his status? It’s simply a dream! As fellow martial artists, who’s afraid of whom?"

Hearing their words, Gu Sheng sighed softly.

"He’s indeed difficult to deal with, and there’s still one day tomorrow. Let’s see the results before we say anything."

"Gu Sheng, what if he doesn’t come to us?"

"Then we just take the Demon Beast’s corpse and leave. From the beginning, we knew we might not get the Xuan Iron. Since we’ve already tried our hardest, it doesn’t matter what the result is. It’s not like we haven’t killed Death Soldiers before. If we could do it before, we can surely do it again."

Hearing his words, everyone nodded firmly.

"Right, since we’ve already done our best, whether we can get the high-level Xuan Iron is up to fate!"

With this decision made, everyone returned to the cave to rest.

Worried that the Demon Beast’s companions might come at night, Gu Sheng purposely guarded the cave entrance with Bai Yu.

As the night deepened, the occasional roars of beasts could be heard in the mountains, making the two dare not relax, their gazes continuously shifting around.

About two hours later, Gu Sheng suddenly got up.

Seeing his movement, Bai Yu quickly followed.

"Gu Sheng, what’s wrong?"

"Nothing, I just want to take a leak."

Hearing this, Bai Yu was speechless.

"Why make such a big scene just to take a leak? I thought something happened."

"I just stood up, do you want to come with me?"

"I definitely won’t go with you."

Gu Sheng chuckled and walked alone to the other side.

While taking a leak, he suddenly noticed a gaze fixed on him.

Sensing something off, Gu Sheng quickly composed himself, gazing coldly toward a low bush.

Sure enough, a beast was staring at him there.

With a cold laugh, Gu Sheng took out the Fire Spirit Dagger and headed straight toward it.

Seeing Gu Sheng coming, the beast foolishly licked its lips, seemingly seeing a delicious prey, roaring even more arrogantly.

Gu Sheng stared at it closely, releasing Spiritual Power with his hand, the Fire Spirit Dagger sharply pivoting, heading straight for it!

Seeing Gu Sheng’s weapon flying toward it, the beast showed no fear, rushing up head-on!

Seeing how foolish it was, Gu Sheng simply stood still, only using Spiritual Power to control the Fire Spirit Dagger, swiftly taking the beast’s life.

Seeing the beast barely alive, lying on the ground, Gu Sheng walked over satisfied, weighed it in his hand.

"It’s not light, just enough for us to have a meal."

After saying this, he forcefully twisted off the beast’s neck, slinging it over his back and heading toward the cave entrance.

Hearing the commotion, Bai Yu instinctively looked over, and upon seeing Gu Sheng walking with a corpse, his eyes widened.

"What happened? Didn’t you say you were going to take a leak? How did you come back with a corpse?"

"I did take a leak, but this beast foolishly targeted me, so I had to kill it. Let’s keep it for breakfast tomorrow morning."

"No way, you managed to kill a beast just while taking a leak?"

"Couldn’t help it, it brought itself to me."

Seeing his nonchalant attitude, Bai Yu lightly pinched his brow.

"We’re watching the night together, remember to call me next time something like this happens, don’t do everything alone. If something goes wrong, Hong Mei won’t spare me!"

"Don’t worry, Hong Mei doesn’t like fatty meat, you’re not her taste."

Looking at him, Bai Yu had a speechless expression.

As the sky brightened, Shi Lou emerged from inside.

Seeing the beast’s corpse, he rubbed his eyes repeatedly.

"Brother Sheng, what’s going on here?"

"It brought itself here last night. It’s up to you now; Bai Yu and I are going to rest."

Shi Lou nodded, making space for them.

As Gu Sheng and Bai Yu rested, the people outside deliberately kept their voices down to avoid waking them.

Once the beast was roasted, Hong Mei entered the cave.

"Gu Sheng, wake up, it’s time to eat."

Upon hearing the sound, Gu Sheng slowly woke.

"What time is it?"

"Almost noon."

"Wang Chunshi hasn’t sent anyone?"

"No."

Upon receiving this answer, Gu Sheng furrowed his brows but said nothing further, casually waking Bai Yu beside him, and they both walked out.

Outside the cave, Gu Sheng sensed the surrounding atmosphere. As Hong Mei said, no one from Kunming Sect was there.

Seeing his slightly grim expression, Hong Mei asked softly, "Should we go find him again?"

After some thought, Gu Sheng shook his head.

They were almost tearing the face last night. Since things have reached this point, there’s no need to go anymore.

"No, once we’re done eating, we leave."

Hearing this, Hong Mei widened her eyes.

"Leaving so early? Didn’t we say to give him one day? What if he comes after we leave? Why not wait a bit longer, three days even, we could leave by evening."

"No waiting, leaving in the evening means searching for a place to stay, might as well leave early to cover more ground. I clearly told him we’re leaving today. If he wants to reclaim the Demon Beast’s corpse, he should come soon. Whether he comes after we leave is none of our business. We’re leaving, that’s it."

"Gu Sheng, don’t act out of spite."

"I understand, I’m not acting out of spite."

Seeing him like this, Hong Mei could only nod in resignation.

The group gathered again, merrily devouring the meat before them.

Once they finished eating, Shi Lou rubbed his belly and lay down.

"Brother Sheng, I ate a bit much, can I rest for a while?"

After he spoke, Er Gou also lay down beside him.

"Brother Sheng, I overate too, can we rest a bit before leaving? It won’t make much difference in time."

Knowing their intentions, Gu Sheng could only nod.

After a good while of rest, Gu Sheng got up.

"The time is about right, we should go."

Upon hearing this, the group exchanged glances, still slowly packing up.

Gu Sheng, unable to bear it any longer, urged them with a few words.

Hearing the slight anger in Gu Sheng’s tone, they didn’t dare delay further, quickly packing up their things and following him on the road.

Gu Sheng chose a path closest to the mountain base, striding forward.

Following him, everyone exchanged glances, feeling a bit helpless.

Seeing them like this, Lan Yao spoke softly, "I think Gu Sheng’s decision is correct. Wang Chunshi clearly wants to manipulate us without cost. Why should we keep making concessions? We’ve already captured the Demon Beast he wanted; it’s his reluctance over high-level Xuan Iron that brought things to this point. The fault lies with him, not us, so there’s no problem with Gu Sheng saying we should leave."

After he spoke, the group nodded thoughtfully, although no one spoke, their steps noticeably quickened.

After an hour, they reached the foot of the mountain.

Looking into the distance, Gu Sheng smirked.

"When we return, we’ll head straight to the White Cloud Sect, allowing Bai Yu to visit home, and bring us as guests."

Hearing this, Bai Yu patted his chest.

"No problem, I’ll handle taking care of you guys, I promise you’ll be satisfied."

"Alright, then let’s pay a visit to the White Cloud Sect."
