Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 1628 - 827: No Need for Formalities

"He either doesn’t make a move, or when he does... it is a force of thunder and lightning, and he would certainly employ a strong person from the King Realm! Those three, more likely... a probing, or there’s someone else eager to eliminate you."

"Someone else..."

Gu Sheng’s eyes flashed with cold light, instantly comprehending.

"Ye Changling!"

"Ye Changling?"

Shen Qingtan furrowed her brows slightly.

"Ye Changling from the Mystic Sect? Do you have a grudge against him?"

"I killed him."

Gu Sheng’s voice was calm, as if talking about a trivial matter.

"In the Secret Realm of Thousand Souls Hall."

Shen Qingtan’s pupils constricted abruptly! Ye Changling!

A Core Disciple of the Mystic Sect, the sole son of a highly authoritative King Realm elder within the sect! Holding an extremely high status in the Mystic Sect! Gu Sheng actually killed him?!

"You..."

Shen Qingtan was at a loss for words; even her resilient mind was deeply shaken by this news.

"Do you know the power of his father, Elder Ye, in the Mystic Sect? You killed his only son; he will definitely not let it rest! Those three assassins are likely his handiwork! This is more troublesome than Xiao Beixuan’s bounty!"

"Troublesome?"

Gu Sheng’s lips curled into a cold smile.

"Then let them come. Killing one is killing; killing two is also killing."

He looked at Shen Qingtan, his tone unequivocal.

"Because of this, Ningshuang and Qin Yurou cannot stay in Great Wilderness City any longer. Xiao Beixuan’s bounty, the revenge of the Ye family, this place has become the center of a storm.

It’s too dangerous for them to stay here."

"Where do you want them to go?"

Shen Qingtan asked.

"Central Province."

Gu Sheng was resolute.

"Far from the disputes of East Desolation. I will ask Tantai Xueling to use the influence of Linyin Pavilion in Central Province to keep them safe. Once I resolve the troubles with Xiao Beixuan and here, I will go to the Central Province to join them."

"Central Province..."

Shen Qingtan pondered for a moment.

"That indeed is a place to go. Only... the journey is long, crossing provincial regions, fraught with unforeseen dangers. I fear I cannot ensure their safety alone."

"You don’t need to bear it alone."

Gu Sheng replied.

"Tantai Xueling will arrange everything. You just need to bring them safely to the Central Province and meet up with people from Linyin Pavilion. Once there, Linyin Pavilion will protect them. You... can also stay in the Central Province and seek your own opportunities."

Shen Qingtan silently looked at Gu Sheng.

She knew, Gu Sheng was considering her. Staying in East Desolation, she would also be caught up in this storm.

Going to Central Province is both to protect Gu Ningshuang and Qin Yurou and also to give herself a way out.

"Alright."

Shen Qingtan finally nodded in agreement.

"I promise you. I will take them to the Central Province."

She paused, her gaze under the bronze mask directly meeting Gu Sheng’s, her voice carrying an imperceptible concern.

"What about you? Xiao Beixuan offers a million bounty, the Ye family is watching, and there’s the unfathomable Venerable Ming River... How do you face them alone?"

"Alone?"

Gu Sheng’s eyes carried a sharp gleam, his lips slightly raised.

"Who says I’m alone? Xiao Beixuan... is merely a stepping stone for me to reach a higher realm. In the Life and Death Arena, I will definitely cut him down!"

His voice was calm yet imbued with unparalleled confidence and decisive killing intent!

As if killing a peak-strength person at the Human King Realm was already a foregone conclusion for him!

Shen Qingtan looked at the man before her, whose momentum was as fierce as a rainbow, seemingly in control of everything, feeling profound shock.

For the first time, she felt so clearly the dominating sharpness on Gu Sheng, a confidence born from absolute strength!

"Take care."

Shen Qingtan finally uttered just two words, yet they weighed heavily.

"You too."

Gu Sheng nodded.

"The sooner, the better; you should depart quickly. I will notify Tantai Xueling to arrange reception matters."

The two walked out of the Quiet Room. In the pavilion, Gu Ningshuang and Qin Yurou immediately cast concerned glances.

"Ningshuang, Yurou."

Gu Sheng approached them.

"You will leave Great Wilderness City with Sister Qingtan and go to the Central Province."

"Brother! What about you?!"

Gu Ningshuang became anxious immediately.

"Yes, Gu, what will you do?"

Qin Yurou was also full of worry.

"I have made my arrangements."

Gu Sheng’s tone was undeniable.

"Central Province is safe, Linyin Pavilion will protect you. Once I’ve handled things here, I’ll come to find you."

"But..."

Gu Ningshuang wanted to say more.

"Listen!"

Gu Sheng interrupted her, his voice low but carrying an irresistible power.

"Staying here will only distract me. Go to the Central Province, train well, wait for me."

Gu Ningshuang looked at her brother’s eyes filled with unwavering resolve, tears welled up in her eyes but she ultimately nodded firmly.

"Okay! Brother! You must come find us! You must be safe!"

Qin Yurou also nodded vigorously, eyes red.

"Gu, take care!"

Gu Sheng raised his hand, gently ruffled Gu Ningshuang’s hair, and nodded to Qin Yurou.

"Don’t worry."

He turned to Shen Qingtan.

"Everything is entrusted to you."

Shen Qingtan nodded solemnly.

"Don’t worry. I’ll make arrangements immediately and we will set off early tomorrow morning."

Gu Sheng said no more, took a deep look at his sister and Qin Yurou, then turned and walked away quickly. Shadow followed closely.

Watching Gu Sheng’s figure disappear outside the garden gate, Gu Ningshuang could no longer hold back and threw herself into Shen Qingtan’s arms, crying softly.

Qin Yurou silently wiped her eyes.

Shen Qingtan gently patted Gu Ningshuang’s back; under the bronze mask, her gaze turned towards the direction Gu Sheng left, eyes complex.

She knew a storm sweeping through East Desolation had fully commenced with this man’s return.

And what she could do was protect those he cared about, guarding the rear for him.

In the underground layer of Linyin Pavilion, warm moonlight flowed over the White Jade Platform; Tantai Xueling looked at the scarlet vine in her palm, slightly twisting and exuding a pure bloodthirsty aura, her beautiful face showing rare heartfelt joy.
