Seeing him like this, Gu Sheng stepped forward and patted his shoulder.
"It’s alright. Their daring to come here proves you have a chance for revenge. Let’s go back first and then deal with them."
Huang Shan nodded vigorously and followed him step by step.
Back in Yunhai, everyone went directly to see Wushuang Taoist.
Wushuang Taoist had long sensed their presence. As soon as they opened the door, Wushuang Taoist came out.
Seeing them all returned alive and intact, Wushuang Taoist smiled.
"Not bad, everyone came back alive. How did it go this time? Did you find out their whereabouts?"
Hong Mei stepped forward and eagerly recounted the whole story.
Upon learning that Gu Sheng had poisoned everyone in the Fan Sect, Wushuang Taoist’s eyes flashed with surprise.
"As expected of someone I had my eye on, truly skillful. With this, Saint Ya will be overwhelmed, which is extremely beneficial for us."
"This time we made a mistake, unable to finish them off completely. Next time, we’ll try our best."
"No matter, they are just rats and insects hiding in the dark; hunting them cleanly isn’t easy. Plus, Saint Ya brought that old guy along. It’s good enough that you were able to injure them and come back alive. Gu Sheng, things have exceeded my expectations, I am very satisfied."
Understanding what she meant, Gu Sheng presented the herbs to her.
"Taoist, these were retrieved by Lan Yao and Bai Yu from the Fan Sect’s territory. I overheard them discussing how these herbs were meant to harm you. I thought the poison on you might be related to these things, please take a look."
Seeing these herbs, Wushuang Taoist’s eyes lit up.
"Exactly! The poison on me is indeed related to these herbs. I’ve been searching bitterly for years, and didn’t expect you to bring them back!"
Upon learning these herbs were truly useful, everyone was extremely delighted.
Wushuang Taoist looked at them and with a wave of her hand, several martial art manuals landed in front of them.
"As a token of gratitude, please take these manuals. Our Sky Blue Sect practices the orthodox methods; these manuals can be cultivated by any sect, no need to worry."
Holding the manuals, everyone grinned widely, even Huang Shan had a hint of a smile on his face.
"Thank you, Wushuang Taoist."
"No need to thank me, I should be the one thanking you. If not for me depleting many treasures after years of seclusion, I would reward you grandly. But don’t worry, once I reemerge, you’ll be provided with plenty of good things."
With her words, everyone smiled even more happily.
At this moment, Gu Sheng asked, "Taoist, are you aware that someone is ambushing outside Yunhai?"
"I know, these people are likely targeting you, not me, right?"
"I’m sorry for troubling you."
"No worry, we are now in the same boat, we should collaborate. I sensed them as soon as they arrived. To leave some targets for you, I refrained from killing them. They’re setting up an array there, aren’t they? I’ve laid a layer of an array outside of theirs, just waiting for you all to return and close the net."
Learning this, Gu Sheng and the others thanked her again.
Wushuang Taoist took out a ruby, smiling as she handed it to him.
"Crush this gemstone, and my array will explode. Feel free to kill them; this array is harmless to you."
Upon knowing she had set everything in place, Gu Sheng turned to Huang Shan and handed the ruby directly to him.
"You do it. You’re the most suitable for this."
"Thank you, Brother Sheng."
"No need to thank me, thank Wushuang Taoist instead."
After Huang Shan thanked again, they quickly turned and left.
Seeing Hong Mei also followed, Wushuang Taoist called out to her.
"They’re already like fish in a barrel, no need for so many people. Stay behind and help me with the herbs."
"Master, I promised Huang Shan to help him."
