Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 1570

Chapter 1570: Chapter 808: Completely Unable to Follow This Line of Thought

Gu Sheng put down the cup, his voice still calm, though it carried an undeniable penetration power.

"You’re not truly lacking in that piece of Spirit Jade. Taking on the guide task was merely a reasonable excuse for using Spirit Stones for cultivation later, to avoid arousing suspicion."

Gu Yuan’s body trembled violently, instinctively clenching his fists, nails digging deep into his palms.

In front of Gu Sheng, she felt as if all her disguises had been stripped away, nakedly exposed to the sunlight.

"The place where you hide your resources," Gu Sheng’s gaze seemed to penetrate the walls, eyeing the distant depths of the ruins.

"It’s near the Thousand Souls Hall, right?"

These words completely crushed Gu Yuan’s psychological defenses.

She sprang up from the chair, took two steps back, her back hitting the wall heavily, her eyes filled with extreme horror and instinctive vigilance!

The Thousand Souls Hall! That was where her greatest secret lay!

How could he know?!

The True Qi within her body instinctively began operating along that eerie, cold route, a faint breath of death began to fill the air, and the room’s temperature seemed to drop a few degrees.

Though she knew the person before her was unfathomable, and resisting might be futile, the instinct to survive still prompted her to assume a defensive posture.

Gu Sheng merely watched her quietly, his eyes lacking any greed or covetousness, instead containing... an examination?

"No need to be tense."

Gu Sheng slowly spoke, breaking the suffocating silence.

"I have no interest in what you hid at the Thousand Souls Hall."

Gu Yuan’s taut nerves did not relax, the vigilance in her eyes did not diminish in the slightest.

No interest? Then why expose her? Why point out the Thousand Souls Hall?

Gu Sheng seemed to see through her doubts, casually brushing his palm over the table.

A faint flash of light, and a small pile of crystalline, Spirit Energy-rich stones appeared on the table—dozens of High-grade Spirit Stones!

The pure, magnificent Spiritual Energy instantly filled the room, even diluting the chilling deathly aura circulating within Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan’s eyes widened instantly, her breath stopped for a moment.

Dozens of High-grade Spirit Stones! The value... she couldn’t even imagine!

The ability of the other party to casually produce such immense wealth, indeed eliminated the need to covet her meager "savings" hidden at the Thousand Souls Hall.

"Your bloodline is very special."

Gu Sheng’s voice rang again, striking Gu Yuan’s heart.

"The Cultivation Technique you practice, although incomplete and tinged with death energy, surprisingly resonates weakly with your bloodline. If not for this, with the oppressive and sinister nature of that technique, you would have long since perished with severed meridians from forced cultivation."

Bloodline? Resonance?

Gu Yuan’s mind was a chaotic mess; these terms were too foreign and distant for her.

She only knew that the torn Jade Scroll, picked up beside a corpse on the outskirts of the Thousand Souls Hall, was her only hope to change her fate.

"And," Gu Sheng’s gaze fell on Gu Yuan’s slightly frail chest and the intentional binding marks, his tone still calm and unruffled.
