Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 778 - 413 An Invitation

Gu Sheng pushed Ji Ziyue away with a slight look of disdain, trying to keep her at a distance.

Ji Ziyue stumbled backward, almost falling.

She shot Gu Sheng a glare, then sat down nearby and sulked.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Ji Ziyue pouted and asked discontentedly.

"Sigh..."

Gu Sheng let out a long sigh, not wanting to get too entangled with others.

He just wanted to cultivate quietly and improve his strength.

"Nothing, I just want peace and quiet here at Zhuo Peak."

Gu Sheng replied flatly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Sheng noticed a sudden flash of seven-colored light in the sky.

"Look!"

Gu Sheng pointed to the radiant light in the sky.

Ji Ziyue looked up, only to see several figures descending from the heavens. It was none other than Elder Ji Hong from the Ji family and a group of powerful figures from Shaking Light Sacred Land.

"Why have they co here?"

Ji Ziyue asked, puzzled upon seeing the arrivals.

"How should I know? These old folks really have too much ti on their hands."

Gu Sheng shook his head with an air of disdain.

"You... That’s an elder from the Ji family! Can you show so respect?"

Ji Ziyue was evidently a little irritated.

"Fine, I’ll be respectful. Elder Ji Hong is here to check on the old madman. Happy now?"

Gu Sheng said this and turned his body away, ignoring Ji Ziyue.

Ji Ziyue’s eyes flashed with surprise upon hearing Gu Sheng’s words.

She hadn’t expected the old madman’s situation to draw so much attention.

Even figures from the Ji family and the Shaking Light Sacred Land had been alard.

Gu Sheng felt the silence behind him and assud Ji Ziyue had quietly left. He turned his head to take a look.

All he saw was Ji Ziyue sitting on the ground, staring blankly.

"Hey, aren’t you going to say hello to your family’s elder?"

Gu Sheng tilted his face and asked.

"No, let them talk amongst themselves. That has nothing to do with ."

Ji Ziyue replied.

"Exactly, all they do is add trouble for us. If we go, they’ll make us welco them—it’s such a hassle."

Gu Sheng turned his head away again and sighed slightly.

"Hey? Since you’re bored anyway, why not go wander sowhere else? I haven’t left Zhuo Peak in days."

Ji Ziyue reached out and pulled Gu Sheng forward once again.

"You’re not a kid anymore; why do you always need to accompany you?"

Gu Sheng said with so dissatisfaction.

Suddenly, two disciples from Zhuo Peak hurried over to find Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue.

"Senior Brother Gu, Senior Sister Ji, the elders have instructed you two to go welco several great cultivators."

The two disciples gasped for breath as they relayed the ssage.

"Uh..."

Gu Sheng shook his head helplessly.

anwhile, Ji Ziyue couldn’t help but laugh.

"See? If you’d followed to roam around, you wouldn’t have ended up dealing with this ss."

Gu Sheng shot her a glare but eventually stood up.

"Let’s go back."

Gu Sheng said, following Ji Ziyue as they returned to the location where the Ji family elder and Shaking Light Sacred Land’s Holy Daughter were gathered.

"Elder, Holy Daughter."

Ji Ziyue and Gu Sheng respectfully greeted the important figures.

Elder Ji Hong nodded slightly. "Ziyue, how have you been at Zhuo Peak lately?"

"Very well, thank you for your concern, Elder."

Ji Ziyue nodded with a smile on her face.

Ji Hong continued to nod. "Hmm, Zhuo Peak has great potential. Study hard in the future, got it?"

"Yes, I will abide by the elder’s teachings."

Ji Ziyue replied.

Hearing this, Gu Sheng felt a wave of disdain in his heart.

After all, Ji Ziyue was soone with an incredibly playful nature. Studying seriously? That was downright impossible!

"Gu Sheng, please serve tea to these senior cultivators."

The nearby Li Ruoyu instructed.

"Understood."

Although Gu Sheng wasn’t thrilled about it, he still followed Li Ruoyu’s order.

"No need, I’ll do it."

Ji Ziyue playfully darted toward the back hall.

At this mont, the great cultivators began discussing the old madman.

"The old madman’s cultivation is imasurably profound. Although his behavior is odd, he always manages to stir up no small commotion."

One of the powerful cultivators remarked.

Another cultivator nodded in agreent. "Indeed, his strength was among the best several millennia ago, though his actions remain difficult for anyone to grasp."

Elder Ji Hong and Shaking Light Sacred Land’s Holy Daughter listened nearby, both visibly serious.

Standing off to the side, Gu Sheng didn’t interject; he rely listened quietly.

He was well aware that, with the old madman’s abilities, he could effortlessly outmatch these so-called mighty figures.

"Gu Sheng, co here."

Elder Ji Hong suddenly noticed Gu Sheng and beckoned him over.

Gu Sheng froze in place for a mont, then walked forward.

"Gu Sheng, you once ntioned that the old madman taught you the Heavenly Gang Step Skill, correct?"

Elder Ji Hong inquired.

Gu Sheng nodded. "Yes, Elder."

Elder Ji Hong pondered for a mont before saying, "The old madman’s situation has beco very unstable. We need you to closely monitor him, and imdiately inform us of any abnormalities."

"Monitor him? That..."

Gu Sheng felt exasperated. "Elder, the old madman is practically a godlike existence. Even if I watch him, what can I possibly do? You’re speaking as if monitoring and ’liking’ him would achieve anything."

"What’s this about monitoring and liking? What nonsense are you talking about?"

Li Ruoyu, standing next to them, scolded Gu Sheng for his irreverent tone.

Gu Sheng chuckled sheepishly. "Nothing... nothing. You wouldn’t understand; ’liking’ is just slang we young people use. Forget about it."

"Tea’s here."

Ji Ziyue smiled brightly as she brought over a few cups of tea, setting them beside the senior cultivators.

And so, the great cultivators who had co to visit the old madman gathered in Zhuo Peak’s main hall, drinking tea and conversing.

As for the sleeping old madman, he continued to sleep, entirely ignoring their presence.
