Chapter 1030: Chapter 539: Young Master of the White Cloud Sect

At the corner, Gu Sheng stopped and turned to look at the person.

When their eyes met, the person hurriedly said, "Brother, don’t get me wrong. The reason I called you out is that the woman put something in your wine. I was afraid you’d fall into her trap, so I had to make this move."

Hearing this, Gu Sheng raised an eyebrow.

"How do you know something is in the wine?"

"I saw it with my own eyes. That woman was clinging to you, but she was actually giving another woman a chance to act. When she wrapped her arms around your neck to block your view, she slipped something into the wine. I don’t know what it was, but I’m sure it’s a trick."

After he finished speaking, Gu Sheng chuckled.

"She has tricks, and you don’t? You’ve been following us for so long, what are your real intentions?"

"I mean no harm..."

"How can you prove you mean no harm? We’re both aware of what that Jade Token signifies. You recognize this token without belonging to any sect, so how do I know you’re not up to something?"

Gu Sheng didn’t dodge the issue any longer, directly laying it out.

After he spoke, the man let out a heavy sigh.

"Since you understand, I’ll be upfront. You’re right; I do recognize that Jade Token. It belonged to a past elder of the White Cloud Sect. I want it because my father had some connections with that elder. When the elder died in battle, my father regretted he couldn’t see him one last time. If I could bring this token back, it would fulfill his wish."

"Your family had ties with that elder, yet you’re not part of any sect? That doesn’t seem right. Such a meaningful connection shouldn’t be shallow. With your family’s relationship, how can you be unaffiliated?"

Seeing the doubt in Gu Sheng’s eyes, the man quickly brought out his bundle.

"I am a doctor and learned my father’s craft, so I’m not part of any sect."

Looking at the various herbs and silver needles in his pack, Gu Sheng’s eyes still held some suspicion, but he didn’t show it.

"I see, but if your family had such a deep connection with the elder, you should have some proof, right? Without it, how can I believe you?"

Hearing Gu Sheng’s words, he sighed helplessly.

"I just want to see it, nothing more."

"This item is too important. If you can’t prove it, I won’t show it to you."

Gu Sheng’s attitude was clear, leaving him quite helpless.

After thinking for a while, he finally took out a red string.

"This red string was used by my father to save the elder. It carries his essence. You can compare it with the Jade Token’s essence."

Receiving the item, Gu Sheng carefully sensed it, and indeed, its essence matched that of the Jade Token!

Seeing the change in Gu Sheng’s expression, he couldn’t wait to ask, "Can I look at the Jade Token now?"

After thinking about it, Gu Sheng took it out.

As the man reached out, Gu Sheng took a step back.

"Since you saved us today, you can look at it, but don’t touch it, lest you disturb the essence on the Jade Token."

There was no choice; the man nodded and leaned in for a closer look.

He examined the Jade Token for a long time, and Gu Sheng watched him for just as long.
