Understanding her meaning, Gu Sheng thoughtfully nodded.
"Wushuang Taoist, this matter is not something I alone can decide. Let me go back and discuss it with the elders of Stone Village, okay?"
"Alright, I'll give you one week. You can leave with your Stone Village people, and the others will stay."
Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng was shocked.
"You mean…"
"Don't worry, you have helped Red Plum, I naturally won't harm you. To thank you for your help, I will give each of the remaining people a cultivation technique as a sign of gratitude."
"Okay, I'll inform them right away."
Just as Gu Sheng was about to leave, Wushuang Taoist called him again.
"Gu Sheng, consider it carefully. Not everyone gets this opportunity."
"Alright, I understand."
After replying again, Gu Sheng finally stepped out.
Seeing him come out, Bai Yu and the others immediately welcomed him.
The door behind was open, they were reluctant to ask, could only blink at Gu Sheng, hinting for him to speak first.
Seeing them like this, Gu Sheng couldn't help but laugh.
"Wushuang Taoist just wanted a chat with me, why are you so tense?"
"Gu Sheng, was it just a chat?"
After Bai Yu cautiously asked, Gu Sheng pondered for a while and said, "We actually didn't just chat, but also talked about matters related to you."
This made everyone tense.
Seeing them this way, Wushuang Taoist also smiled.
"That courtyard over there is empty, you can rest there for the time being. You've had a long journey, take a break first."
Knowing she was finding them a place to talk, Gu Sheng nodded and led everyone towards it.
Returning to the courtyard, as soon as the door shut, Lan Yao and the others gathered around.
"Gu Sheng, what did Wushuang Taoist say?"
"She said she prepared a cultivation technique for each of you as thanks, and will provide a place for you to improve."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.
"The cultivation technique provided by Wushuang Taoist is certainly not ordinary; if cultivated successfully, it'll significantly enhance our power!"
Everyone agreed with Lan Yao's words, all of them were thrilled.
Seeing Shi Lou and the others so excited, Gu Sheng smiled and said, "You can cultivate, but the people from Stone Village cannot."
As soon as he said this, Shi Lou and others became anxious.
"Brother Sheng, why can't we? Is it because we aren't from renowned sects, so we can't cultivate?"
"It's not about background, it's because I need to return to Stone Village on business, and you must come back with me."
"Return to Stone Village? Brother Sheng, has something happened there?"
"Don't be nervous, it's not bad news, it's good news. Wushuang Taoist wants to recruit me, and my condition is to involve Stone Village. Wushuang Taoist agreed, so we need to go back and consult with the elders."
"Wushuang Taoist wants to recruit you? Gu Sheng, you've struck gold!"
After Lan Yao finished, Bai Yu disagreed, shaking his head.
"That's not necessarily the case. Although Wushuang Taoist is capable, her Mirror Gate ranks low in Jianghu, it's hardly a big leap forward. Gu Sheng, you better think it through."
Understanding his meaning, Gu Sheng nodded.
"I've considered this clearly, Mirror Gate is secondary, Sky Blue Sect is what's significant."
Upon hearing the words Sky Blue Sect, everyone's eyes widened, unable to believe their ears.
Knowing the impact of these words, Gu Sheng briefly explained.
They learnt Wushuang Taoist was the current Sect Leader of Sky Blue Sect, and as long as Gu Sheng agreed, she could bring Stone Village under its wing. This indeed was a leap forward, as Lan Yao had said!
"Gu Sheng, what are you hesitating for? Just nod and agree! That's once the most prestigious sect, Sky Blue Sect! As long as it exists, surpassing White Cloud Sect is just a trivial feat. Why aren't you agreeing?"
"This is not something I can decide alone, I need to go back and ask the elders."
After he said this, Shi Lou broke into a sweat.
"Brother Sheng, given this great news, the elders will certainly not refuse! You can agree first, and then we inform them later?"
