Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1074: Chapter 561: Let Me Lend You a Helping Hand

Seeing his scrutinizing gaze, Gu Sheng admitted, "We just came from the Fan Sect’s side. I know you had a big battle, and it was only because the Qikong Sect had outside help that the Fan Sect’s Sect Leader was injured. Although they escaped, they haven’t given up. They’ll come to attack again in two days."

Hearing this, the pupils of the Qikong Sect Leader shook violently.

"You mean... they will come back again?"

"Yes, I personally overheard their conspiracy, which is why I came to inform you."

Upon hearing this, the Qikong Sect Leader once again scrutinized Gu Sheng.

Seeing his gaze, Gu Sheng couldn’t help but frown.

"You should know the strength of our Mirror Gate. Although we haven’t yet ranked among the renowned sects, our lineage doesn’t allow us to do harm to Jianghu. You can trust us. If I’m not mistaken, the external aid for the Qikong Sect has already withdrawn, right?"

The Qikong Sect Leader pursed his lips and nodded.

"We exerted all our strength to injure the Fan Sect’s Sect Leader, and many of our own got injured as well."

"Don’t worry, this time we will provide support to your Qikong Sect and can still take their lives."

Hearing this, the eyes of the Qikong Sect Leader lit up.

"Are you serious?"

"Of course. The grudges of the past generation should be repaid by our generation."

Thinking it over, the Qikong Sect Leader quickly understood his meaning, and his gaze towards him was full of gratitude.

"Thank you. If it weren’t for your warning and assistance, our Qikong Sect might suffer countless casualties this time."

"They come with the intention of exterminating your sect, but we can’t let them succeed. How can we let those of evil ways harm the renowned sects?"

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, the Qikong Sect Leader nodded emphatically.

"Thank you, Mirror Gate, for your willingness to lend us a hand. In the future, if Mirror Gate needs anything, our Qikong Sect will spare no effort."

Gu Sheng wanted this assurance, and both sides immediately reached a consensus.

That night, the Qikong Sect Leader began to deploy.

He hid nothing from Gu Sheng and his group, and Gu Sheng witnessed the strength of the Qikong Sect.

They were right to come to us. If they hadn’t, Qikong Sect would really have lost this time.

After seeing their deployment, Gu Sheng offered some advice.

Upon hearing his words, the Qikong Sect Leader suddenly understood and immediately redeployed.

Deep into the night, lights were still blazing in the Qikong Sect.

Hong Mei knocked on Gu Sheng’s door and slipped inside.

"Gu Sheng, I just checked. The strength of the Qikong Sect isn’t very strong. Even with our help, they might not be able to match the Fan Sect. What should we do?"

Seeing her anxious expression, Gu Sheng smiled and waved her over.

"I was just about to find you, and here you are. Look at this."

Hong Mei leaned over to look, raising her brow slightly.

"Is this Tibetan Medicine?"

"Do you know what it’s for?"

"For healing."

Hearing this, Gu Sheng smiled again and took out a porcelain bottle.

"And this, do you know what it is?"

"Alum?"

"What’s it for?"

"It has many uses, but it’s not harmful. What are you doing with these two things?"

Gu Sheng smiled and mixed the contents of the two porcelain bottles together.

Just as Hong Mei wanted to sniff it, Gu Sheng quickly pulled her back.

"These two things combined have a strong toxicity and can’t be inhaled, or there’s no antidote."

Hearing this, Hong Mei nervously stepped back half a pace.

"Combining these two creates toxicity? I’ve never heard of this."

"You’ve never harmed anyone before, so of course, you haven’t heard of it. These two things together have no smell and just look like white powder. But once dispersed in the air and inhaled, this poison can slowly erode their inner strength, corrode their organs, until death."

After Gu Sheng finished, Hong Mei’s eyes widened in disbelief.

"Gu Sheng, you intend to use this against the Fan Sect? But you said there’s no antidote, what if our own people inhale it?"

"We can disperse it in a place without our people and then use Divine Power to drive it away. Then, when we battle them, no matter how many they have, they may not be our match."

Understanding his meaning, Hong Mei still found the operation a bit difficult.

Just as the two were having a disagreement, the Qikong Sect Leader arrived.

"Brother Gu, I’ve finished my deployment. Could you take a look for me?"

Seeing the plans he handed over, Gu Sheng looked them over and nodded, "The deployment is very precise, very advantageous for us."

Hearing his words, the Qikong Sect Leader breathed a long sigh of relief.

"That’s good. Brother Gu, what is this?"

He pointed to the porcelain bottle on the table, and Gu Sheng lightly curled his lips.

"This is something to take the Fan Sect’s lives."

"Is it poison?"

"Yes, a very deadly poison, perfectly suitable to use on them."

Gu Sheng explained his plan, and the Qikong Sect Leader nodded repeatedly.

"This stuff is really good. With this, our chances of winning are even greater."

After he finished speaking, Hong Mei expressed her disagreement.

"This poison is indeed very toxic, but it’s harmful to us too. I think it should be used with caution."

"Sect Leader Hong, you don’t need to worry about that. My initial deployment stages include using this poison. At that time, our people will be inside, and theirs will be outside. We first release the poison and drive it away, exposing it only to them."

"Our people shouldn’t be inside but on the walls, spreading the poison from above to below, which is more advantageous for us. We should set up barriers behind the doors and send a few experts to block with Divine Power. Once I disperse the poison, you can appear, ensuring no mistakes."
