Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 1010

Chapter 1010: Chapter 529: Lame Excuse

Lan Yao was overjoyed with Gu Sheng’s invitation.

The two groups sat across from each other, drinking heartily.

As the night deepened in drink, Lan Yao looked at Gu Sheng with drunken eyes.

"Gu Sheng, we have fulfilled two of our three promises. Next time we meet, will you agree to my request and become my friend?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng smiled.

"Have you come here specifically to find me at Stone Village?"

"Yes, they said you were dead, but I don’t believe them."

"Why don’t you believe them?"

"Firstly, I don’t trust them. Secondly, in my eyes, you aren’t that fragile. You’re clever and resourceful, how could you die at their hands?"

"Do you think they did it?"

"Who else? It must have been the Sect Leader of Heisha Sect’s idea. Gu Sheng, if you want to kill him, I’ll help you."

Seeing the sincerity in his eyes, Gu Sheng curled his lips.

"No need, I’ll avenge it myself."

With those words, Gu Sheng raised his hand, and a force of Spiritual Energy rose, enclosing everyone in a bubble, shielding them from the outside world.

"Lan Yao, if I told you I’ve obtained the Spiritual Pearl, how would you feel?"

Once Gu Sheng spoke, Lan Yao’s eyes lit up.

"Gu Sheng, have you really obtained the Spiritual Pearl? That’s great! With the Spiritual Pearl, you’ll gain a hundred years’ worth of Spiritual Power. Then killing the Sect Leader of Heisha Sect would be a piece of cake!"

"No, apart from the Sect Leader of Heisha Sect, there’s also the Peak Master of Purple Mist Peak; both of them are in cahoots. Leaving either of them alive would be disastrous, they both need to die."

Realizing how much he cared, Gu Sheng raised an eyebrow lightly.

"Aren’t you curious about how I got the Spiritual Pearl?"

"There’s nothing to be curious about. Obtaining the Spiritual Pearl is through two means—strength or destiny. If you got it, it’s naturally one of those."

"You came here for the Spiritual Pearl too. Now that I’ve got it, do you feel unbalanced?"

After Gu Sheng spoke, Lan Yao smilingly shook his head.

"If someone else got it, I might be jealous for a moment, but if you got it, I’m pleased. I wasn’t after the Spiritual Pearl; I was after the centennial tree root, which is of utmost importance to our Elf Clan."

Lan Yao explained, and only then did Gu Sheng understand the Elf Clan’s intent.

But Lan Yao wasn’t envious of him getting the Spiritual Pearl, which surprised him greatly.

After all, in his eyes, they weren’t exactly friends yet; he didn’t expect Lan Yao to have such deep friendship.

Gu Sheng dissipated the Spiritual Energy, and the two ceased discussing the topic.

Shi Lou and the others had drunk quite a lot and were quite intoxicated.

Seeing this, Gu Sheng rose to bid farewell to Lan Yao.

"They’re drunk; I’ll take them back to rest. We’ll meet again if fate allows."
