After venting, everyone once again turned their gaze to Gu Sheng.
"Brother Gu, since the Fan Sect is controlled by Saint Ya, she is the true mastermind endangering Jianghu. Shouldn’t we bring her out and kill her to resolve this matter?"
"Yes, yes, she is the true mastermind. We can’t let her go!"
"Right, kill her!"
Seeing the crowd’s growing agitation, Gu Sheng quickly raised his hand to stop them.
"Everyone, don’t be hasty. Saint Ya’s situation isn’t as simple as we think. She was once one of the top experts in Jianghu and not easily defeated by us. Moreover, she’s intentionally hiding now; it’s not that easy for us to bring her out."
"What should we do then? We can’t let her continue to harm Jianghu, can we?"
With these words, everyone began chiming in with various opinions.
Gu Sheng pinched his brow and looked at everyone, saying, "I know you all come from renowned sects and despise such crooked ways, but the timing isn’t right. I ask everyone to keep a low profile and be ready. If Saint Ya truly appears, we’ll gather all our forces to kill her."
After Gu Sheng’s words were spoken, everyone nodded in agreement.
"Alright, then we’ll retreat to strengthen ourselves. When Jianghu needs us someday, we’ll give it our all!"
"Brother Gu, you are wise and upright. If you encounter any trouble in Jianghu later, don’t hesitate to contact us. We will be ready to help."
Hearing everyone’s words, Gu Sheng clasped his fists in gratitude.
"Thank you all, I will remember it well. Today’s matters are concluded, until we meet again in Jianghu."
After speaking, everyone clasped their fists and turned to leave.
Gu Sheng watched until the last sect had departed before he looked at the Sect Leader of the Qikong Sect.
"Why aren’t you leaving?"
"Brother Gu, did you stay until now because there’s more to do? I thought I’d stay and see if I could help. After all, you’ve helped me so much, and I’d like to repay you."
Saying this, he scratched his head awkwardly.
Seeing him like this, Gu Sheng was amused.
"I do have something to do, and you can help."
"What can I do?"
"Set this place on fire."
"Huh?"
"Don’t doubt it, you heard right. Just set it on fire. Saint Ya used all kinds of means to cultivate these people, and they all have poisonous insects inside them. They grew up here; this place won’t be clean. If we don’t burn it, it might be used by Saint Ya or others in the future."
After Gu Sheng’s explanation, everyone suddenly understood.
"Indeed, we can’t let them have the chance to cultivate poisonous insects again, or it would spell disaster if another Fan Sect emerges."
"Burn it! Burn it now!"
Bai Yu’s wrist turned, and a cluster of flames instantly flared at her fingertips.
Simultaneously, the Sect Leader of the Qikong Sect ignited flames.
Gu Sheng pulled Hong Mei back a step.
Sensing his grip, Hong Mei frowned.
"Gu Sheng, I’m supposed to set the fire, why are you pulling me?"
"They can handle the fire, you just stay back to avoid getting hurt."
