Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 726 - 387: Regretting the Engagement? Is There No La

Just as Yan Ruyu and her group took only a few steps outside, Gu Sheng ran out after them.

"Wait a mont!"

Gu Sheng shouted at the group while running.

Upon hearing Gu Sheng’s voice, Yan Ruyu imdiately stopped.

She turned her body and looked toward Gu Sheng, her brows slightly furrowed.

At that mont, Gu Sheng seriously examined Yan Ruyu’s appearance.

To be honest, Gu Sheng’s heart was thrown into utter turmoil in that instant.

He had never seen such a beautiful and captivating woman.

Yan Ruyu’s figure was graceful and elegant, like a lotus blooming proudly, pure and free of vulgarity.

Likewise, her beauty seed to embody the essence of heaven and earth, vibrant and flawless.

Gu Sheng couldn’t help but lose his composure. He quickly gathered himself, trying to appear more composed.

He ran up to Yan Ruyu, panting heavily, and said, "Fairy Yan, I... I have sothing I wish to say to you."

Yan Ruyu looked at Gu Sheng, her gaze revealing a hint of curiosity.

She gently nodded, signaling Gu Sheng to speak.

Gu Sheng adjusted his attire slightly before speaking, "Miss Yan, I’ve realized that I’ve developed an intense interest in you. I wish to ask... um... that..."

"What?"

Yan Ruyu seed to have guessed what Gu Sheng was about to say, so her tone carried a trace of impatience.

"I wish to ask—now that the Great Emperor’s Heart has parasitized in my body, would you marry ?"

Gu Sheng asked expectantly.

"You..."

Yan Ruyu seed a bit helpless.

Nearby, Bai Yiyi noticed and quickly stepped forward to smooth things over.

"Young Master Gu, don’t be so hasty. Matters of marriage require careful consideration."

"Careful consideration?"

Gu Sheng’s face showed frustration.

When they first spoke of the Great Emperor’s Heart’s parasitization, it wasn’t ntioned like this.

Now that the task was completed, they seed to be reneging?

Gu Sheng’s brows furrowed tightly, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

Thus, his voice gradually grew louder, tinged with accusation: "Back then, you all promised clearly—if I managed to integrate the Great Emperor’s Heart into my body, you would agree to my proposal. Now that the Great Emperor’s Heart has fully rged with , you’re starting to dodge. What’s the aning of this?"

"Young Master Gu!"

Bai Yiyi glanced at Yan Ruyu beside her, pointing a slender finger at Gu Sheng and exclaid, "Hold your tongue!"

"Hold my tongue? You’re the ones breaking your promise, and now you want to stay silent—where’s the justice in that?"

Gu Sheng was still visibly displeased.

At this point, Yan Ruyu’s expression turned grim as well.

She hadn’t expected Gu Sheng to so bluntly question her.

Yan Ruyu then coldly said, "Gu Sheng, do you an to challenge us? Could marriage be treated so flippantly, decided recklessly on re impulse?"

The atmosphere imdiately grew tense, and the surrounding air seed to have frozen.

Bai Yiyi wanted once again to ease the situation, but she realized that Yan Ruyu had now reached the point of true anger.

Suddenly, Yan Ruyu’s form shifted, and an imnse power erupted from her body.

"Whoosh!"

A ray of light shot out from Yan Ruyu’s sleeve, directly blasting Gu Sheng several ters away.

Gu Sheng’s body carved an arc through the air before crashing into the nearby icy pond, setting off a splash of water.

The pond’s water was icy and bone-chilling, yet Gu Sheng didn’t feel much discomfort.

Climbing out from the pond, his clothes were completely soaked.

He took a deep breath, his face full of displeasure.

At this mont, Yan Ruyu’s group had already disappeared into the distance, leaving Gu Sheng standing alone by the pond.

Gu Sheng did not say much. He turned and returned to the small hut.

Then, closing his eyes, he began to summon the divine power within his body.

With the Great Emperor’s Heart’s reinforcent, a warm sensation surged within him, gradually drying his soaked clothes.

Droplets of water evaporated from his garnts, transforming into wisps of white mist that rose and dispersed.

Once his clothes were dry, Gu Sheng sat upon the mat, silently reflecting.

"Won, especially beautiful won, are truly unreliable!"

As he contemplated, his eyes fell upon his own heart.

This Demon Clan—though skilled in their abilities—had imprisoned him unyieldingly.

And why? For the sake of marriage?

That seed unrealistic.

After all, he belonged to the Human Clan, and their spells were fundantally untrainable for him.

If he forced himself to cultivate them, he would only end up as neither human nor demon—a fruitless endeavor likely leading to failure.

Thinking it over, he realized that finding ways to enhance his divine power was the true path forward.

After all, at this mont, the Great Emperor’s Heart was subrged within his Life Spring. If he could absorb more Holy Blood to temper his flesh, wouldn’t that be a flawless plan?

With that thought, Gu Sheng’s mind was made up.

He no longer hesitated and sat cross-legged.

Closing his eyes, he began channeling his consciousness into the mysterious and powerful energy within himself.

Gu Sheng focused his awareness on his inner "tripod," using it to revolve slowly around the Great Emperor’s Heart.

Each rotation seed to probe for weaknesses within the Great Emperor’s Heart.

Yet the Great Emperor’s Heart was like an unyielding boulder, remaining as steady as a mountain regardless of Gu Sheng’s efforts.

Gu Sheng did not lose hope. He understood this would be a long-drawn battle.

As ti passed, Gu Sheng’s "tripod" spun faster and faster.

Moreover, each collision grew more forceful.

After countless attempts, Gu Sheng sensed a subtle change.

The "tripod" seed to strike a chanism within the Great Emperor’s Heart during one fierce collision.

With a faint sound, a few drops of Holy Blood were jolted from within the Great Emperor’s Heart.

These drops of Holy Blood flowed gently in his Life Spring, radiating a dazzling brilliance that illuminated the entire Life Spring.
