Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 1717

Chapter 1717: Chapter 871: Working With Someone Like This (Part 2)

Qidiao Yaoyao finally walked forward leisurely, her voice carrying a peculiar enchanting power that penetrated the soul, and asked softly.

"Tell your sister, what’s going on up there? Why are the Three Great Divine Sects confronting each other here?"

The disciple’s eyes were vacant, his lips moving, as he mechanically replied.

"It’s the City Lord Shen Wuguang of the Purple Mist Divine Sect... He colluded with the villain Gu Sheng, and plotted to kill several of our Longevity Divine Sect’s most talented senior brothers and sisters, as well as an elder from the Heavenly Fire Divine Sect... Gu Sheng has already been personally killed by the Great Elder of the Heavenly Fire Divine Sect, leaving no trace behind... Now, the masters are negotiating on how to deal with Shen Wuguang..."

"Gu Sheng... is dead?"

Qidiao Yaoyao’s pupils suddenly contracted, even with her mindset, she couldn’t help but show a look of shock at this moment.

She quickly turned her head, looking at Gu Sheng standing not far away with his hands behind his back, calm and unruffled, then swiftly looked back, staring intently at the disciple, pressing further.

"Are you sure? Saw it with your own eyes?"

"Yes... I saw it with my own eyes... The Great Elder was furious and struck with a blaze that burned heaven itself, there was absolutely no chance that Gu Sheng could have survived..."

The disciple confirmed dazedly.

Qidiao Yaoyao fell silent.

She gently waved her hand, lifting the control over the disciple.

The disciple shook his head, his eyes regaining clarity, completely unaware of his momentary lapse, still looking up at the confrontation above.

Qidiao Yaoyao slowly turned around, walking back to stand before Gu Sheng.

Her golden eyes no longer held any pretense of mystery or testing, but instead had become incredibly sharp, like two freshly drawn cold blades, sizing up Gu Sheng with a complicated and unclear gaze, filled with scrutiny, shock, and a hint of finally regarding the person before her as an equal or even placing him in a higher position.

She now completely understood what Gu Sheng had brought her out to "see." It wasn’t the confrontation between the Three Great Divine Sects, but rather, this whole "I am already dead" drama put on by Gu Sheng himself!

Before entering the Secret Realm, he had already set up such an exquisite plot, not only successfully shedding his skin like a Golden Cicada, but also redirecting all his enemies’ attention and wrath onto Shen Wuguang! Such resourcefulness, such a maneuver...

Seeing the intense changes in her eyes, Gu Sheng finally spoke, breaking the silence.

"Miss Qidiao, can we talk about collaboration now?"

His tone remained flat, yet carried an undeniable authority.

"However, empty promises are meaningless. If you, or rather the Five Poison Divine Sect behind you, truly wish to cooperate with me, Gu Sheng, then you’ll need to bring forth something truly valuable, or... sincerity."

Qidiao Yaoyao fixed her gaze on Gu Sheng, the sharp light in her eyes not diminishing, but growing even more intense.

The fierce scar on her face seemed to come alive at this moment, adding a touch of wildness and danger to her presence.

She realized that she had indeed underestimated this young man from East Desolation.

He wasn’t a trapped beast in dire straits, but a poisonous dragon lurking deep beneath the abyss, ready to devour anyone at any moment! Collaborating with such a person might be fraught with peril, but it could also... yield immense rewards.

Qidiao Yaoyao’s sharp eyes flickered like stars in the dark, and she fell silent for a moment, seemingly weighing the weight of Gu Sheng’s words.

Ultimately, she took a deep breath, the wild and dangerous aura retracting slightly, replaced by a more cautious attitude.

"Young Master Gu is indeed extraordinary. Since we’ve come to this point, I won’t beat around the bush.

As long as the conditions are reasonable and within the capabilities of my Five Poison Divine Sect, we can agree to them. What does Young Master Gu want?"

Gu Sheng, however, did not immediately name his price, only responding blandly.

"The specific conditions can wait until we’re out of the Secret Realm. Perhaps, I may not even need to leverage your sect’s power."

Upon hearing this, Qidiao Yaoyao’s golden eyes couldn’t help but brighten slightly, but she quickly regained her calm.

She heard the strong confidence in Gu Sheng’s words, which was not bluffing, but stemmed from some undisclosed assurance.

This inevitably elevated her assessment of Gu Sheng to a higher level.
