Chapter 985: Chapter 516: News Spread by the Goblins (Part 2)

"As long as we’re willing to do it, there’s still time for everything."

Saying this, Gu Sheng glanced at the people who had been rescued from the Soul Refining Cave and then focused his gaze on Huang Shan’s face.

"Huang Shan, starting tomorrow, if I entrust you with the heavy responsibility of protecting Stone Village, can you handle it?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Shan immediately straightened his back and patted his chest, making a resounding thumping sound.

"Brother Sheng, don’t worry, we’ll definitely guard Stone Village well! Even if we must brave fire and water, we will not hesitate!"

After he spoke, the others also agreed one after another.

Gu Sheng nodded with satisfaction and pointed to several locations in Stone Village.

"These places are the weak points of Stone Village. Starting tomorrow, guard these places separately, do your best to fend off attacks from all sides, and buy us time to rebuild Stone Village."

"No problem, we’ll definitely give it our all!"

"Alright, then tonight everyone should rest well, and tomorrow we’ll exert ourselves to the fullest."

"Brother Sheng, let’s guard this place tonight."

"No need, the blood aura hasn’t dissipated yet, there won’t be any attacks tonight. You’ve just experienced a battle, so rest well first."

The crowd dared not defy Gu Sheng’s words and each found a place to rest.

At dawn, Gu Sheng opened his eyes and quietly roamed around every corner of Stone Village.

Wherever he went, a pattern appeared on his hand.

As each pattern combined, it ultimately formed the full view of the new Stone Village.

When the sun rose, Gu Sheng finally stopped.

Seeing that he was already on the edge of Stone Village, he leaped to a high place and surveyed the entire Stone Village.

Looking at Stone Village and then at the map in his hand, he let out a heavy breath of relief and walked back with large strides.

At the resting place, as soon as everyone opened their eyes, they couldn’t see Gu Sheng, and suddenly became anxious.

"Brother Sheng’s presence has weakened; he seems to have been gone for a while."

Upon careful observation, Shi Lou spoke in a somber voice, which further unsettled everyone’s hearts.

"Shi Lou, do you know where Gu Sheng has gone?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Lou shook his head.

"Brother Sheng’s strength far surpasses mine; I can’t track his whereabouts."

"What should we do! How could he suddenly disappear, nothing will happen to him, right?"

"The Shadow Tree is still with Gu Sheng; could someone have sensed its presence and targeted him?"

With these words, everyone’s heart sank heavily.

Huang Shan couldn’t sit still any longer, stood up, and said, "You all stay here; I’ll take people to find Brother Sheng."

Seeing him about to leave, Shi Lou hurriedly stopped him.

"No, Stone Village isn’t as safe as it used to be. If you leave alone and something happens, what then? Brother Sheng is strong; he will surely return safely. If he comes back and something happens to you, how will I explain to him?"

Upon hearing these words, Huang Shan also became anxious.

"We’ve been awake for an hour, but Brother Sheng still hasn’t shown up. What if something happens to him? How can you guarantee his safe return? He saved our lives; we’re willing to risk our lives to save him too! Don’t hold me back!"

Saying this, Huang Shan forcefully shook off Shi Lou’s hand.

Seeing him so impulsive, Shi Lou stepped forward again to block him.

Huang Shan felt a touch of anger but held back, barely refraining from striking.

As the atmosphere between the two became tense, the crowd quickly intervened.

At this moment, Gu Sheng appeared.

Approaching from afar, he immediately saw the chaotic crowd.

As he puzzled, the crowd shifted, revealing the tense Huang Shan and Shi Lou.

"What are you doing?! Stop it!"

Hearing Gu Sheng’s voice, the crowd looked over joyfully.

Confirming it was him, Shi Lou raced over.

"Brother Sheng, where did you go?"

After speaking, Huang Shan also rushed over.

"Brother Sheng, has someone come to cause trouble?"

Seeing their tense expressions, Gu Sheng smiled and shook his head.

"No trouble; I went to plan Stone Village. What were you doing earlier, causing this commotion?"

Hearing Gu Sheng’s question, the two looked slightly embarrassed.
