Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 1710 868: As for This Princess

The Little Princess of Five Poisons, at this moment, had shed her ordinary disguise, revealing her original charming yet slightly evil appearance.

As she walked, she scrutinized Situ Qingfeng beside her with a doubtful look, her tone impatient.

"Hey, Situ Qingfeng, are you sure that following this route will really lead us to Gu Sheng? Within the sensing range of my Gu worm, there's no sign of any living person in this area for hundreds of years."

Situ Qingfeng was inwardly distressed. How could he possibly know the exact location of Gu Sheng? It was only a delaying tactic born out of desperation.

He knew well he was no match for this demoness, but the other side seemed to also dread his father Situ Ling, not daring to really kill him.

He simply decided to give up completely, spreading his hands, assuming an air of nonchalance.

"Believe it or not. Anyway, this is the route I know. If Your Highness, the Princess, doesn't believe me, you can search on your own. There are countless halls, and even searching for a year or more might not be enough to look through them all. Oh, by the way," he seemed to suddenly remember something and reminded her.

"I hope Your Highness the Princess won't forget that before entering the main hall's door, you made a martial oath that you wouldn't snatch the item I'm here to take."

The Little Princess of Five Poisons heard this and disdainfully curled her lips, too lazy to respond to him.

Between her slender fingers, at some unknown point, a few weak glimmers of light were swirling; these were the Gu worms she had cultivated with care, silently probing for any hidden clues in the surrounding environment.

The two silently proceeded for a while. Suddenly, the Little Princess of Five Poisons' gaze sharpened, and she swiftly reached out, grabbing the back collar of Situ Qingfeng's clothes, yanking him backward forcefully!

"Watch out!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Just as Situ Qingfeng was pulled away, over ten enormous pillars of flame, emanating terrifying heat, suddenly shot up from the ground in front of them and on both sides! The crimson flames roared like angry dragons, instantly turning that area into a purgatory!

The nearest pillar of fire was less than a foot away from where Situ Qingfeng had been standing! The extreme heat instantly scorched the front of his clothes black and twisted, even causing a burning pain on his skin!

Situ Qingfeng was still in shock, looking at the raging sea of fire before him, his back instantly soaked in cold sweat. If not for the intervention of this demoness, he would have turned into charcoal just now!

The Little Princess of Five Poisons released her grip, dusted off her immaculate hands, and let out a disdainful snort.

"Hmph, what a useless guy! Can't even detect such an obvious spiritual power trap fluctuation. I really don't know how you've survived until now. If it weren't for the fact that you're still somewhat useful, I wouldn't care whether you live or die."

Situ Qingfeng's face turned all sorts of colors, both fearful of what had almost happened and angry.

He forcefully suppressed his anger, changing the subject to ask.

"Your Highness the Princess, you're so determined to find Gu Sheng, even risking coming here. What's it all for? Surely you can tell me now?"

The Little Princess of Five Poisons glanced at him, continuing to manipulate the Gu worms to scout ahead while nonchalantly answering.

"No harm in telling you. That Longevity Old Ghost outside has made up his mind to kill Gu Sheng and is mobilizing more experts from the Divine Sect, laying out a Heaven and Earth Net. As for myself... naturally, it's for my own benefits."

"Save him?"

Situ Qingfeng was taken aback.

"That's right."

The Little Princess of Five Poisons curved her lips into a sly smile.

"Saving him provides me with greater benefits. Gu Sheng possesses something very interesting to me. As for what exactly..."

She deliberately elongated her speech, shrugging mysteriously.

"Once you meet him, you'll naturally understand. Telling you now would be pointless, after all... you're too weak."

She blatantly belittled Situ Qingfeng, then said no more, only casually reminding him.

"From this moment on, the dangers in this area will increase. Pay more attention to yourself so you don't really die here. Otherwise, I would have a hard time explaining to your overly protective father."

Situ Qingfeng was left speechless by her words, a wave of discontent rising within him, yet he was helpless, forced to grit his teeth, staying more vigilant as he observed the surroundings.

Outside the ancient slopes where Fate Hall was located, the atmosphere was tense, with a murderous aura permeating the area.

The three factions stood off at a distance. On one side was the large, coordinated, clearly advantaged alliance of the Heavenly Fire Divine Sect and Longevity Divine Sect martial artists, unified in their anger, full of momentum. On the other side was the somewhat underpowered Purple Mist Divine Sect group led by the newly appointed City Lord, Shen Wuguang.

The Great Elder of the Heavenly Fire Divine Sect, with dark red hair and beard, stepped out from the crowd, his gaze like a torch, containing fury, pointing straight at Shen Wuguang. His voice, resonant like a bell, echoed through the slopes.

"Shen Wuguang! What have you to say now?!

Your Purple Mist Divine Sect clearly colluded with that East Desolation villain Gu Sheng in secret! Under the guise of exploring the Secret Realm, you invited various Divine Sects here, but in reality, it was to aid that Gu Sheng, setting a trap to hunt our Heavenly Fire Divine Sect elders and Longevity Divine Sect's talented disciples! Such conduct is vile and shameless, provoking both gods and men to rage!"

Martial artists of the Longevity Divine Sect also glared angrily, murderous intent rising, unanimously agreeing harshly.

"Indeed! Shen Wuguang, surrender now! That Gu Sheng has already been executed; this would be the fate of those conspiring with him! If you have any sense, confess your guilt, and maybe you'll keep your body intact!"
