Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World-Chapter 1132 - 590: Seeking a Place Elsewhere

After Wang Chunshi left, the remaining people exchanged glances.

Scratching his head, Lan Yao asked, "Gu Sheng, what should we do now? Stay or not?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng smirked.

"Since there’s an opportunity, naturally, we should stay."

"But he said we can’t take anything from Kunming Mountain, so doesn’t that mean we can’t take the Xuan Iron?"

"Now that he’s allowed us to stay, he’s already compromised; who knows about the next steps?"

Looking at Gu Sheng’s smiling demeanor, everyone nodded thoughtfully.

"Indeed, staying is better than being driven away."

After Bai Yu spoke, everyone agreed.

Gu Sheng led the group out the door and randomly asked someone, "Excuse me, where should we settle down?"

Hearing this, the person looked puzzled.

"Did my master agree for you to settle here?"

"Yes."

Upon getting this answer, he was clearly surprised but quickly waved them off, "Sorry, the master didn’t ask us to prepare rooms for you. Please, help yourselves."

After speaking, he hurriedly left, as if afraid Gu Sheng and the others would cling to him.

With no choice, Gu Sheng had to ask others.

After asking everyone on the spot, they were a bit dumbfounded.

Although Wang Chunshi let them stay, he didn’t arrange accommodations, meaning they were still in the unwelcome category.

Pinching his brow, Gu Sheng helplessly sighed.

Shi Lou rubbed his stomach and said pitifully, "Brother Sheng, where exactly are we going to stay? My stomach is somewhat hungry."

Watching him, Gu Sheng was just about to speak when he noticed someone in the corner of his eye and immediately blocked that person’s path.

"We were allowed to stay by Senior Wang. May I ask where we should settle?"

Upon hearing his words, the person snorted coldly.

"Do you think having permission means you can settle in our sect? Don’t dream, the mountain is big, just find a spot yourself. Also, you can only stay for three days; once time’s up, get lost and don’t interfere with our matters."

Seeing his changeable attitude, Gu Sheng furrowed his brows.

"We helped you drive away the evil sect."

"So what? My senior brother was punished because of you. Without his help, could you stay? Don’t be ungrateful."

Knowing why he was upset, Gu Sheng didn’t say much but pursed his lips gently.

After he left, Gu Sheng turned to the others and said, "He’s right, Kunming Mountain is vast, if we carefully search, there’s bound to be a place for us to settle."

"Brother Sheng, are we still camping in the wild?"

"Yes, the opportunity is rare, as long as we can stay, it’s fine. Let’s go, and find a suitable spot."

Gu Sheng led the group off, many people secretly glanced their way, but no one stopped them.

With Wang Chunshi’s permission, they didn’t camp at the foot of the mountain but chose a location on the hillside.

Looking at the spacious cave, Gu Sheng nodded in satisfaction.

"This is a nice spot to settle; let’s stay here. Lan Yao, go find some wild game so we can eat."

"Alright, I’ll go now."

As Lan Yao left, Huang Shan also led people to follow.

Just as Gu Sheng was about to sit down, Hong Mei pulled him aside.

"Hold on, since we’re staying here for several nights, it’s better to set up properly. Go find some dry grass."

"Fine."

When Gu Sheng spoke with a hint of grievance, everyone was amused.

The group searched around, gathering lots of dry grass, Hong Mei spread them all out, ensuring comfort before nodding in approval.

"That’s enough, use the rest for fire."

Approvingly, everyone was finally able to sit and rest.

Sitting on the soft grass, Bai Yu laughed and said, "There truly needs to be a woman in the team, see how comfortable we are now; without Hong Mei, we men would have struggled for days."

"You’re right, you’re absolutely right. Brother Sheng and I have been out for a long time, camped in the wild many times, but rarely this comfortably."

Saying this, Shi Lou simply lay down on the dry grass in ease.

Seeing him like this, Gu Sheng raised a hand to give him a light smack.

"Have I treated you badly before?"

"Not really, just not this comfortable. Brother Sheng, you should learn more from Hong Mei."

Seeing him nod and sway while advising, Gu Sheng shook his head with a smile.

Before long, Lan Yao and Huang Shan were back.

Looking at the wild game they carried on their shoulders, everyone’s eyes lit up.

"So quick, to catch so much game?"

"Yes, I didn’t expect so many wild animals on the mountain; just casually hunted and got so much. Yet, I find it strange here, seems like there’s a Demon Beast; I tried to lure it but none showed up, though there might be, and we even roasted it for a meal."

Lan Yao laughed as he spoke, but Gu Sheng took it to heart.

"Did you sense the presence of a Demon Beast?"

"I think I did, hidden among the wild beasts’ aura, vague and unclear. However, there are indeed many wild beasts on this mountain. We could stay here for years and have enough to eat, I don’t understand how the Kunming Sect can let them roam freely."

After he spoke, Gu Sheng thoughtfully stroked his chin.

While everyone was busy, Bai Yu approached him.

"Gu Sheng, do you sense something off?"

"Yes, the Kunming Sect members are not weak; they shouldn’t let these beasts roam freely. Plus, Lan Yao said there’s Demon Beast aura among them. I suspect Wang Chunshi deliberately arranged for us to be here."
