Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 1374 - 711: Heaven and Earth Strange Fire

"I will rember what happened today for now."

With that, he flickered and vanished like a ghost.

It wasn’t until the oppressive feeling completely disappeared that Gu Feng exhaled deeply, looking at Gu Sheng in disbelief.

"Little brother, since when did you beco the Third Pavilion Master of Linyin Pavilion? In just a few months in Great Wilderness City, you’ve not only gained the inheritance of Venerable Azure Dragon, but also..."

"Brother, don’t misunderstand."

Gu Sheng interrupted him with a smile.

"This token was a gift from a friend; I just used it to intimidate others. By chance, I befriended soone from the Linyin Pavilion’s high ranks, who lent this token for protection before parting ways. I didn’t expect it to actually co in handy."

Gu Feng remained sowhat skeptical.

"Being able to casually give such a token, the people you’ve t at Linyin Pavilion must not be ordinary high-level mbers, right?"

"Brother, you’re joking."

Gu Sheng spread his hands naturally.

"With my cultivation only at the Yellow Martial Realm, how could I truly beco part of Linyin Pavilion’s high ranks? That green-clad man was also bluffed; if he had asked more questions, it might have exposed the ruse."

Ye Jianjia stood silently to the side, arranging the collar of her clothes that had been torn by Sword Qi.

Her clear eyes lingered on Gu Sheng’s face for a mont before quickly looking away—she knew well that Gu Sheng’s explanations were not entirely truthful.

In Xuan City, she had personally witnessed the shopkeeper of Linyin Pavilion, Huang Ting, treating Gu Sheng with utmost respect—far beyond what would be accorded to an ordinary guest.

"Jianjia, are you alright?"

Gu Sheng turned to Ye Jianjia, eyes filled with concern.

"I’m fine."

Ye Jianjia gently shook her head.

"That person was only demanding information about Miss Nangong’s whereabouts and did not harm ."

Gu Sheng nodded and asked again.

"What connection do you have with the Nangong Family? Why would that green-clad man seek you out?"

Ye Jianjia was silent for a mont before speaking quietly.

"The Nangong Family was once a powerful clan in Xuan City, comparable in strength to the Emperor Sect. So days ago, a group of mysterious individuals leading hundreds of martial artists launched a nightti assault on the Nangong household. Almost the entire clan...except for Nangong Qingyue and an elderly matron, who narrowly escaped."

"Annihilated overnight?"

Gu Feng gasped.

"Who could be so bold?"

"I don’t know."

Ye Jianjia shook her head.

"But to be able to achieve sothing of this magnitude, the opposition must have at least a Peak Earth Martial Realm expert."

Gu Sheng’s eyes were filled with gravity. At his current cultivation, facing a Peak Earth Martial Realm expert was akin to striking a stone with an egg.

He clenched his fists silently—he must quickly improve his strength!

"Jianjia, pack up."

Gu Sheng suddenly said.

"We will return to Great Wilderness City first thing in the morning."

"So soon?"

Gu Feng was taken aback.

"You just returned a few days ago..."

"Brother, this ti I ca ho mainly to deliver the inheritance of Venerable Azure Dragon."

Gu Sheng explained.

"There are still many matters awaiting handling in Great Wilderness City. Furthermore..."

He paused.

"I have a wager with soone, requiring to reach High Xuanwu Realm within three months."

"Three months? From Yellow Martial Realm to High Xuanwu Realm?"

Gu Feng’s eyes widened.

"How is that possible?"

Gu Sheng smiled without answering, rely patting Gu Feng on the shoulder.

"Rest assured, I have my plans."

Seeing his younger brother’s confident expression, Gu Feng suddenly felt a little estranged from this sibling he had grown up with. In just a few months, Gu Sheng had beco shrouded in many mysteries. But in the end, he could only heave a deep sigh.

"No matter when, the Gu family will support you with all its might."

This sentence ward Gu Sheng’s heart.

He rembered how his brother was always the first to stand up for him whenever he got into trouble as a child.

Just as Gu Sheng stepped over the threshold of the courtyard, he heard Gu Feng’s voice behind him.

"Gu Sheng, wait a mont."

He halted, turning around, his robe catching a slight breeze, and the Jade Pendant hanging at his waist swayed lightly.

"Brother, is there sothing you need?"

Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly, as sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled light over his face.

Gu Feng quickly approached, his gaze falling on Gu Sheng’s waist.

"Did Father pass you the Jade Pendant Mother left behind?"

"Are you talking about this?"

With a flip of his right hand, a fully green Jade Pendant with strange carvings around its edges appeared in Gu Sheng’s palm.

In the sunlight, the Jade Pendant shimred with a glossy sheen, faintly imbued with a flow of Spiritual Energy.

Gu Feng stared at the Jade Pendant, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

"Not just a Magical Treasure, but also a token."

"A token?"

Gu Sheng’s fingers caressed the surface of the Jade Pendant, feeling its cool texture.

He infused it with Spiritual Power, and the patterns on the Jade Pendant imdiately glowed faintly, but soon dimd again.

"I’ve tried several tis, and besides being able to store a small amount of Spiritual Power, it seems to have no special features."

"That’s because you haven’t found the right way to use it."

Gu Feng smiled mysteriously and lowered his voice.

"The sect corresponding to this Jade Pendant is in Great Wilderness City. If you have the chance, you may visit with the pendant. As for the specific sect..."

He scratched his head.

"Mother spoke ambiguously back then, and my mory is a bit hazy. You might want to ask Father again before you leave."

A glint flashed through Gu Sheng’s eyes as he put the Jade Pendant back into his Storage Ring.

"Thank you, Brother, for telling ."

Seeing that Gu Sheng had no intention of further questioning, Gu Feng was sowhat surprised.

"Don’t you want to know more?"

"When the ti is right, I will naturally know."

Gu Sheng’s lips curled up slightly.

"Besides, if you wanted to say more, you wouldn’t have held back just now."

Gu Feng laughed heartily, patting Gu Sheng on the shoulder.

"Your temperant is becoming more like Father."

After a few more pleasantries, Gu Sheng bid farewell and returned to his room.

As he opened the door, a faint sll of dust greeted him.

Gu Sheng stood at the doorway, his eyes sweeping over the familiar setup—the desk by the window, the weapon rack in the corner, the landscape paintings on the wall, everything was the sa as it was when he left, except for the one who used to secretly tidy his room while he cultivated.

"Qing’er..."

Gu Sheng sighed softly, his fingertips tracing the dusty surface of the desk. Thinking of that girl’s Vermilion Bird Spirit Body, he silently calculated his plans.
