Chapter 1082: Chapter 565: False Jianghu Rumors

That evening, the seed selection was completed.

Gu Sheng plowed a piece of land and carefully scattered all the seeds.

"Saint Ya, how long will it take for these seeds to grow?"

"With the presence of Spirit Grass, at least half a month."

"Half a month’s time... Saint Ya, during this period, let’s go find the Fan Sect."

"Alright, we must be cautious on the journey."

Gu Sheng nodded and turned to the others: "Pack up, we leave early tomorrow."

The next morning, Gu Sheng led the group out of Yunhai and set off for East Mountain again.

Halfway through, Gu Sheng suddenly felt something was not right.

The last time they traveled this path, aside from encountering dense forests and Demon Beasts, they hardly came across anyone. But this time, there were significantly more people on the road. How could there be so many people in such a remote place?

Seeing the people coming and going, Gu Sheng simply stopped in his tracks.

The others also noticed something unusual and turned to him.

Gu Sheng looked at the nearby forest, and without hesitation, stepped in.

Once the group followed, Gu Sheng summoned the small tripod to hover above them, isolating them from the outside world.

Under the protection of the small tripod, Bai Yu frowned and said, "Gu Sheng, the current situation is clearly off. The road to East Mountain is remote and difficult, logically there shouldn’t be anyone here, at least not this many people. Could it be the doing of Saint Ya?"

Thinking for a moment, Gu Sheng nodded thoughtfully.

"Everyone is heading in the same direction, mostly towards East Mountain. It’s impossible that it has nothing to do with them, perhaps they are behind this."

"What does this old witch really intend? Does she want to bring down Jianghu? With countless deaths, what benefits her?"

"With countless deaths, she might aim to dominate the world."

"Humph! As if she’s worthy!"

Lan Yao spoke furiously, and Gu Sheng sighed softly.

"We still don’t know what’s happening. We need to quickly go and find out, otherwise, what if these people are blinded and lose their lives?"

Understanding his implications, everyone quickly got up.

Gu Sheng withdrew the small tripod and continued on the journey with the group.

Late at night, as they were resting, a man in a black robe approached them.

Feeling the aura emanating from him, Gu Sheng’s eyes showed a hint of vigilance.

He didn’t speak, nor did the man in the black robe. They just looked at each other, both with inquisitive eyes.

After a long time, the man in the black robe couldn’t hold back any longer and spoke first.

"Do you know why I don’t want to talk to you?"

"Do you think my offer isn’t enough?"

"No, it’s because I don’t believe the Fan Sect has a Spiritual Pearl. I’m going to investigate, not to compete."

After he said this, the man was visibly shocked.

"This matter is causing quite a stir in the small circles of Jianghu, and you don’t believe it?"

"I don’t believe it. Why should I? The Fan Sect is not a renowned sect, even has some Evil Qi, associated with the likes of Evil Demons. How could such a sect deserve a Spiritual Pearl?"

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, the man’s expression changed immediately.

"Brother, you’re not trying to deceive me, are you? Even though the Fan Sect isn’t well-known in Jianghu, I’ve heard of it. How could they have dealings with the likes of Evil Demons?"

Thinking for a moment, Gu Sheng said, "I personally killed the Black and White Ghosts, who were under the Evil Demons. I know better than anyone if they are involved. How can such a wicked sect deserve a Spiritual Pearl? As I understand, the Fan Sect Leader was severely injured recently, and the poison inside is incurable. They released the news about the Spiritual Pearl; do you think she’s luring you to compete for the pearl or to be medicine?"

Learning that it was Gu Sheng who killed the Black and White Ghosts, the man broke into a cold sweat.

"That’s... that’s too sinister."

"That’s why I don’t want anything from you, because I bet she doesn’t have the Spiritual Pearl. We are going to expose her plot to prevent reputable sects from being harmed."

Gu Sheng spoke with conviction, and the man clearly believed him a bit more.
