Chapter 1129: Chapter 588: A War Sparked by an Herb_2

Gu Sheng made up his mind, and everyone immediately headed to higher ground.

The mountain was steep and difficult to climb upward. Lan Yao was at the front, gripping the stone tightly with both hands and feet.

The Divine Power within him had already been unleashed, but a gust of wind swept by, causing his figure to sway uncontrollably.

Seeing him in such danger, a member of the Elf Clan couldn’t help but shout, "Second Young Master, be careful!"

Hearing the voices of the crowd, Lan Yao didn’t turn back.

The stone beneath him had grown increasingly narrow, making any further movement difficult. Turning around was a luxury for him, so he just replied and continued forward.

Seeing the Elf Clan still trying to follow, Gu Sheng stopped them immediately.

"Don’t continue following. The stones ahead can’t bear much weight; you going up will make him fall."

Hearing this, the Elf Clan stopped immediately.

"Brother Sheng, is there any way we can help the Second Young Master?"

"No way. The path ahead is steep; he can only rely on his own strength to bring back the herbs. We can only watch from afar."

Gu Sheng spoke these words calmly, but the Elf Clan remained anxious yet could only wait in place.

Lan Yao moved on alone, meeting fewer and fewer obstacles, but his figure swayed more violently. Sweat continuously rolled down his forehead, yet he kept moving forward bit by bit.

Seeing his body extending outward, entirely suspended by a stone mid-air, everyone’s heart jumped into their throat.

Gu Sheng kept a close watch on him, with Divine Power in his hands constantly churning.

Everyone knew he was holding a fallback plan; if Lan Yao fell, Gu Sheng’s Divine Power could lend him a helping hand. Yet even so, they remained on tenterhooks.

As Lan Yao slowly moved forward, just one step away from the herb, sudden rapid footsteps sounded behind the group.

Gu Sheng was startled, turned back, and saw a group of strangers, faces full of murderous intent, approaching uncached. He could easily sense the strange aura from them.

Knowing these people had ill intentions, Gu Sheng immediately turned around to shield everyone in front of him alone.

"Who are you?!"

Gu Sheng struck first, which caused the adversaries to burst into cynical laughter.

"We spotted this herb first and have already left our aura here. You brazenly snatched it, and you still have the nerve to ask who we are?!"

Feeling their murderous aura, Gu Sheng squinted slightly.

"You’re not from Kunming Mountain."

There was no question in his tone, and the others didn’t refute.

"So what if we’re not from Kunming Mountain? You’re not either. We spotted this herb first; it belongs to us!"

Once he confirmed their identity, a cold smile surfaced on Gu Sheng’s face.

"Since neither of us is from Kunming Mountain, it’s naturally first come, first served."

"Nonsense! We left our aura here a long time ago; you forcibly seized our herbs! If you wish to take them away, you’ll have to give up your lives!"

Hearing his outrageous remarks, Gu Sheng’s cold smile deepened.

"If you want our lives, you’d better see if you have the skills to take them!"

Seeing that Gu Sheng wouldn’t give an inch, that person unleashed his Divine Power.

Just then, another group hurriedly arrived.

"Stop! Interrupting Kunming Mountain’s business, are you tired of living?"

Upon hearing this, the person who just spoke laughed heartily.

"So what if they’re from Kunming Mountain? On your territory, I still do as I please. None of you combined can match me, and you dare step up to provoke? You must have a death wish!"

"Even if it means death, we won’t let you succeed! These are Kunming Mountain’s possessions, and there’s no way you’ll get them!"

"I’m telling you, this item is mine for sure!"

After speaking, he suddenly turned to look at Gu Sheng, and retracted his murderous aura saying, "Why don’t you join forces with me? Once we defeat the Kunming Mountain people, we’ll split the herbs equally."

Hearing this, Gu Sheng only found it laughable.
