Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 727: Chapter 387: Regretting the Engagement? Is There No Law Anymore?_2

Gu Sheng could feel the power contained within this Holy Blood, a force that could transform his very being.

Joy flickered in Gu Sheng’s heart, knowing that the first step of his plan had succeeded.

But this was merely the beginning. If he could obtain more Holy Blood and temper his flesh more deeply, those Demon Clan of Yan Ruyu would naturally be no match.

Thus, after obtaining a few drops of Holy Blood, Gu Sheng immediately operated the Grand Circulation to quickly absorb the energy-laden Holy Blood.

After a full day, Gu Sheng’s vitality had only slightly calmed.

He opened his eyes and looked at his body.

At this moment, his entire body was still flush red, due to the fact that the energy of the Holy Blood from the heart of the Great Emperor hadn’t completely dissipated.

”Thump, thump, thump!”

Footsteps sounded outside the hut.

Gu Sheng looked up and saw Bai Yiyi pushing the door open and coming in.

”Oh! Impressive, your cultivation has increased quite a bit.”

Bai Yiyi directly praised upon seeing Gu Sheng’s appearance.

Gu Sheng looked at Bai Yiyi, noticing a flicker of cunning in her eyes.

”Why are you here?”

Gu Sheng casually asked.

”Came to check on you.”

Bai Yiyi said as she sat next to Gu Sheng.

”Tch!”

Gu Sheng looked disdainful, then began to adjust his Divine Power to stabilize his mind.

Seeing this, Bai Yiyi’s voice took on a playful tone: ”Looks like you finally realize the value of the Great Emperor’s heart, you didn’t think this way before, how do you plan to repay me now?”

Bai Yiyi’s gaze held an indescribable charm, as if she could see through one’s soul.

Gu Sheng smiled slightly, stood up, his face lighting up with a radiant smile.

”Repay? Are you kidding? With someone like me, how could I possibly repay you?”

Bai Yiyi also stood up.

Her long hair draped like a waterfall, a streak of white particularly captivating.

Especially her hair-flipping gesture, full of gentle power.

Then, she walked lightly to Gu Sheng’s front.

Gu Sheng caught a faint floral scent from her, suddenly feeling a sense of enjoyment.

”I think you can compensate me with your True Yuan.”

Bai Yiyi said softly, her fingers gently resting on Gu Sheng’s shoulder.

Watching Bai Yiyi’s lips part slightly, with a hint of seduction.

Gu Sheng was no fool and naturally understood Bai Yiyi’s implied meaning.

”Compensate with True Yuan? That sounds like a good idea.”

Gu Sheng curled up the corner of his mouth in a mischievous smile, pretending to seriously reply to Bai Yiyi.

As Bai Yiyi was momentarily dumbfounded, Gu Sheng reached out, intending to draw Bai Yiyi into his arms.

Bai Yiyi didn’t expect Gu Sheng to be so straightforward, a trace of panic flashed across her face as she quickly dodged back.

Simultaneously, a light blush appeared on her face.

”Young Master Gu, what are you doing?”

Bai Yiyi’s voice carried a touch of shyness, evidently surprised by Gu Sheng’s actions.

Gu Sheng did not stop because of Bai Yiyi’s evasion, his eyes twinkling with a lustful gleam.

”Since you brought it up, naturally I have to fulfill your wish.”

Gu Sheng said as he continued to approach Bai Yiyi.

Bai Yiyi suddenly felt the warmth of Gu Sheng’s palm, her body involuntarily relaxing a bit.

And at this moment, an inexplicable sense of enjoyment welled up in Bai Yiyi’s heart.

She knew she shouldn’t feel this way, but Gu Sheng’s presence made her feel at ease.

Gu Sheng looked at the blush on Bai Yiyi’s face and teased, ”Bai Fairy, are you shy? I thought you were a bold woman.”

”Hehehe...”

Bai Yiyi was amused by Gu Sheng’s words, she lightly pushed away Gu Sheng’s hand, regaining her usual composure.

”Young Master Gu, you really love to joke around, I came to tell you something else.”

Bai Yiyi tidied her clothes, barely managing to steady her agitated emotions.

”I’m not joking.”

Gu Sheng chuckled.

”Stop messing around, I’m telling the truth.”

Bai Yiyi frowned slightly, taking on a serious expression.

Gu Sheng, realizing he’d joked enough, nodded and said, ”Alright, what’s the matter, tell me? Are you planning to move me to another place?”

After speaking, Gu Sheng pointed to a corner of the thatched hut and said: ”Take a good look, there are so many holes in this hut. Luckily there’s no wind or rain, or else, it’d be heavy rain outside and light rain inside.”

Bai Yiyi glanced at the thatched hut, then rolled her eyes at Gu Sheng.

Then, she took a deep breath, deciding to tell him the truth directly.

”Gu Sheng, honestly speaking, recently a teenager with a rare physique emerged in the Ji family of East Desolation, and their clan intends to use us as a trial to test the boy’s strength.”

Bai Yiyi said solemnly.

”Hm? Trial?”

Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng’s eyes revealed a trace of disdain.

”Hehehe...”

Gu Sheng laughed coldly, ”So what if it’s a rare physique? We’re not pushovers either, at most we just fight them.”

Bai Yiyi looked at Gu Sheng’s confident manner, feeling both helpless and a bit concerned.

She shook her head, ”Young Master Gu, don’t be overly confident, the power of the Ji family is not something we can easily contend with, and His Highness has already ordered a retreat, we can’t just hold on stubbornly.”

Gu Sheng’s face darkened, he didn’t expect even Yan Ruyu to choose to retreat.

”Retreat? Why retreat? Are we just going to submit to being trampled?”

Bai Yiyi sighed, knowing Gu Sheng’s pride was strong, but reality was harsh.

”We’re not submitting, rather preserving our strength and waiting for an opportunity. Clashing now will only bring us more losses.”

Gu Sheng fell silent, knowing Bai Yiyi’s reasoning was sound.

Yet, there was still reluctance in his heart. He looked up at the sky, as if searching for something.

”Alright, I’ll consider it, but before that, I need time to process this news.”

”Process this news?”

Bai Yiyi’s face showed some annoyance.

”Young Master Gu, take a good look, this time I’m the only one who came to inform you, others have already started withdrawing, listen to me, leave now, don’t hesitate.”

Bai Yiyi urged.

”Now?”

Gu Sheng was stunned, ”Alright, wait for me.”

When Gu Sheng turned back into the hut, dozens of miles away beyond the plum blossom forest, Yan Ruyu was leading her followers through the rugged mountains.

”Halt!”

Suddenly, a cold shout came from the sky.

Yan Ruyu’s brow flickered with caution, her attendants immediately readying for battle.

”Your Highness, be careful!”

A female warrior dashed to Yan Ruyu’s front, preparing to defend.

The woman appeared middle-aged, clad in golden armor over her body, with a treasured sword already drawn, ready to face any potential crisis.

Her name was Golden Armor, Yan Ruyu’s personal guard, experienced and quick to react.

”Your Highness, it seems there’s trouble!”

Golden Armor’s voice carried a hint of vigilance.

At this moment, a pale purple figure descended from the sky accompanied by several attendants.

Their movements were light and swift, clearly experts.

The purple-clad man, handsome-faced and with eyes full of arrogance.

His gaze fell directly on Yan Ruyu, as if he was already informed of her identity.

”Yan Ruyu, descendant of the Demon Emperor, heh heh...”

The purple-clad man’s voice held a note of provocation.

Golden Armor stepped forth with her sword, blocking the front of Yan Ruyu.

Her gaze turned cold as she asked, ”Who are you? Why do you block our path?”

The purple-clad man smiled faintly, ”Who am I? You’re not qualified to know yet.”

After speaking, his gaze shifted to Yan Ruyu: ”I’ve heard the Demon Emperor’s descendant has extraordinary talent, I’ve come today to test if that reputation is true.”

Golden Armor’s eyebrows knit together, then she coldly said, ”Our Highness has no interest in competing with you, please clear the path.”

A trace of displeasure flashed through the purple-clad man’s eyes, ”What’s this, doesn’t the Demon Emperor’s descendant even have the courage to accept a challenge?”

Golden Armor remained unmoved, knowing this was provocation, an excuse for the other side to incite a battle.
