Peerless Hermit once again explained the matter of wooing Gu Sheng, and by the way told Stone Village's future arrangements.

Hearing her words, Stone Village elders nodded frequently, trying to hide their excitement.

When they heard that Peerless Hermit had arranged Stone Village's new address, the smiles on everyone's faces gradually solidified.

Seeing their reaction, Gu Sheng stood up and said, "Peerless Hermit, Stone Village have settled there for generations. If they are allowed to migrate all, I'm afraid there will be It's hard to leave our homeland. Now Heavenly Cang Sect is still in the dark. It's better to let Stone Village stay there until Heavenly Cang Sect comes to the light. What do you think?"

"That's fine. If you move here now, I'm afraid there will be unforeseen consequences. Gu Sheng, but you have considered it carefully. Then Stone Village just sit still. It just so happens that some of my Heavenly Cang Sect staff have no place to settle and are still traveling around. Let them go back to Stone Village with you, so that I can take care of you in the future."

Hearing this, the elders nodded frequently.

"Thank you Peerless Hermit!"

After everyone's words were spoken, Gu Sheng coughed on the side.

"Elders, it's time to call the leader now."

Gu Sheng As soon as these words came out, everyone realized and quickly changed their words.

After saying that, they looked at each other and looked at Peerless Hermit with some embarrassment.

"Master, since our Stone Village has been merged into the Heavenly Cang Sect, in the future we... we..."

Third Elder hesitated to speak, but Peerless Hermit smiled.

"In the future, you will still consider yourself elders, but the ranking order has changed. As for the other members of Stone Village, then they are the inner disciples of our Heavenly Cang Sect."

After hearing Peerless Hermit's arrangement, everyone thanked them again.

After only staying for one day, the Stone Village elders returned in a hurry. When they left, they also took away a Heavenly Cang Sect token to facilitate subsequent Heavenly Cang Sect people traveling to meet them.

Gu Sheng sent them all the way out of the Cloud Sea. Before leaving, Third Elder still stuffed the village leader's token into his hand.

"Gu Sheng, this should be yours, please accept it. Although it has no value now, it can still be regarded as yours to rule us."

"Third Elder, this..."

"No need to say more, just take it, Gu Sheng, thank you."

After solemnly thanking him, Third Elder turned around and left with everyone without waiting for his reply.

Gu Sheng watched them all the way until their figures completely disappeared before returning to the Cloud Sea.

In the courtyard of Peerless Hermit, two people sat opposite each other.

Taking out a box, Peerless Hermit pushed it directly in front of him.

"Gu Sheng, take these things. Since you have become my Heavenly Cang Sect messenger, you need something to prove your identity so that you can recognize my personnel when you go out in the future."

Understanding what he meant, Gu Sheng nodded and took the box.

Seeing that there were some hairpins and other items in the box, he raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Peerless Hermit, this is..."

"These are things about Saintly Hermit. You can get familiar with their aura first. As far as I know, after Demon died, Saintly Hermit disappeared. She left Dongshan. Go and search to see if you can find any trace of her."

With that said, Peerless Hermit took out the hairpin, raised it in front of him and said, "Saintly Hermit also has a sect similar to the Mirror Sect, called Fan Sect. Most of the members are women. The poison in the individual's body was all cultivated by Saintly Hermit. Fan Sect has done a lot for her and injured many innocent lives. If possible, destroy Fan Sect first and cut off its minions before looking for her."

"Is Fan Sect stronger than Mirror Sect?"

"I have only seen them once, when we fought against Demon. They are not weak, but they do not play in the same style as us. They are similar to the evil sect of Demon. They use despicable methods. As long as they can kill people, they will do anything. Once you encounter them, you must be careful."

Listening to her words, Gu Sheng nodded thoughtfully.

"Okay, I understand, but your injury..."

"Don't worry, I have my own method. Although the speed is slow, it will not hurt your life. It is precisely because of the slow recovery speed that I can't take action, so I recruited you, Gu Sheng. Let Hong Mei follow you in the future. Mirror Sect's people will also be used by you. Hong Mei rarely listens to anyone except me. You have to get along well with her."

When he said this, Peerless Hermit's tone was obviously somewhat meaningful.

Gu Sheng pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

"Okay, everything is subject to the master's arrangements."

Peerless Hermit was very satisfied with his reaction.

"With the token, you can do whatever you want in the Heavenly Cang Sect and Mirror Sect. No one will stop you. Just do whatever you want. I'm tired, so you go ahead."

After saying goodbye, Gu Sheng left alone.

He was holding the box in his hand, and as soon as he turned a corner, Hong Mei's face emerged from the tree.

"Gu Sheng, what did master tell you?"

When looking at him, Hong Mei blinked his big eyes playfully, filled with curiosity.

Seeing her like this, Gu Sheng couldn't help but chuckle.

"Want to know?"

"Kind of."

"It's just a little bit, let's not talk about it."

Gu Sheng deliberately teased her and turned around to leave.

Seeing that he really stopped talking, Hong Mei became a little anxious and quickly jumped out to stop him.

"No! I really want to know! What did my master say to you?"

After thinking about it, Gu Sheng directly stuffed the box into her arms.

"Take it back for me and I'll tell you."

After speaking, he strode forward alone, not daring to speak another word.

Seeing him like this, Hong Mei raised his fist behind him, but he only shook it a few times, and then followed him with the box in his arms after relieving himself.

In Gu Sheng's yard, Hong Mei came up again.

"Can you tell me now? What did you say?"

"I didn't say anything. The leader gave me something to prove my identity, and also gave me something about Saintly Hermit. We will leave for Dongshan in two days."

"Going to Dongshan? What about me? Shall I come too?"

Looking at her, Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows.

"Do you want to come together?"

"Of course I have! I have never dreamed of avenging my master!"

Seeing the anger burning in her eyes, Gu Sheng nodded.

"Then let's go together. We will fight side by side in the future. However, the leader has said that Mirror Sect will also obey my arrangements in the future. Although you are the leader of the Mirror Sect, you must still be obedient."

After he finished speaking, Hong Mei frowned.

"Why? Why should I listen to you?"

Opening the box, Gu Sheng took out the token inside.

"Based on this."

One sentence directly made Hong Mei wilted.

Looking at her, Gu Sheng suddenly chuckled.

"I found that since returning to Peerless Hermit, you are different from before."

"It's different? What's different?"

"In the past, when you were leading Mirror Sect alone, you always looked cold and distant. Since you returned to Peerless Hermit, you seem to have more aura, and your whole person seems to have come to life again. It seems..."

"What does it look like?"

"It seems to look better than before."

As soon as Gu Sheng said these words, Hong Mei's face turned red.

"Do you need to say this? This is the truth! But to be honest, I am a little jealous of you."

"Are you jealous that I suddenly became an emissary?"

"Well, I'm quite jealous, but I also know that the master can let you take on this important task because you must have the ability. I discovered it on the way to the Cloud Sea. You do have two brushes, but don't be too proud. I'm just a messenger. As a master, I, Head Disciple, am not necessarily inferior to you. We are equals. You can't use this status to overwhelm me, or I will file a complaint against you!"

Hong Mei raised his fist again, but Gu Sheng couldn't stop laughing.

He found that after returning to Peerless Hermit, Hong Mei seemed a little more cute and... quite pleasing to the eye.

"Take some time to clean up. We'll leave when Shi Lou and the others are out of seclusion."

"So fast? Then master..."

"Peerless Hermit has his own arrangements, don't worry about it, we just need to take care of these things so that Peerless Hermit has no worries."

After thinking about it carefully, Hong Mei felt that what he said was right, so he nodded.

"Okay, I'll go pack up now. You tell me when we set off, and I'll spend more time with my master before we set off."

After Gu Sheng nodded, Hong Mei left.

During the next period of time, Gu Sheng walked Cloud Sea all over.

After becoming familiar with every place in the Cloud Sea, he began to go to Peerless Hermit frequently.

The herbs planted by Peerless Hermit have been harvested. Gu Sheng is helping to prepare the herbs every day. He wrote countless fragrant words, but the recovery effect on Peerless Hermit is not very good.

Seeing that half of the herbs were used, Gu Sheng began to feel a little worried.

Seeing him like this, Hong Mei took the initiative to give him a cup of tea.

"Gu Sheng, don't be too worried. According to my master, she has used these herbal medicines for several rounds, and has developed hundreds of formulas. The hundreds of formulas she has researched have not been able to cure the poison on her body. This shows how harmful this poison is, and it is understandable that your formula is not effective."

After hearing Hong Mei's words, Gu Sheng sighed lightly.

"I didn't expect Saintly Hermit to be so ruthless. He clearly wanted to torture the person to death. If Peerless Hermit hadn't had strong internal strength, he would have been tortured to the point where he would have been transformed into a human being."

When this happened, Hong Mei gritted his teeth with hatred.

"This Saintly Hermit, sooner or later I will kill her to avenge my master!"

"Don't worry, we will destroy her step by step after heading to Dongshan, but the most important thing right now is to help Peerless Hermit research the formula."

"I'm at the end of my rope, there's really nothing I can do."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Mei's face was filled with self-blame.

Seeing her like this, Gu Sheng comforted her softly, "You are not a doctor, and your medical skills are not superb. You have thought of all the solutions you should think of now. You have tried your best. Don't blame yourself."

After the two comforted each other for a while, Gu Sheng began to study again.

Hong Mei was sitting on the recliner in his courtyard, playing with herbs and accompanying him.

The sun shone down on the two of them, as if they were covered with a layer of light. Gu Sheng was writing over there, while Hong Mei was playing with herbs over there. Neither of them spoke, but the picture was inexplicably harmonious.

After the sun set, Hong Mei got up.

"Gu Sheng, it's time for dinner."

After hearing her words, Gu Sheng did not stop writing, but said seriously, "I just have some ideas now, you go and eat first, don't worry about me."

Looking at the sky, Hong Mei wanted to say something, but was afraid of disturbing him, so in the end he could only swallow the words that came to his lips and sit down again.

I don't know how long it took, but Gu Sheng suddenly stood up and slapped the table.

"I've researched it! I've researched it!"

Hearing his voice, Hong Mei, who was dozing off, was startled awake.

"Gu Sheng, what are you doing?"

"Hong Mei, I have developed a new prescription! I think this prescription will definitely work for Peerless Hermit!"

Hearing this, Hong Mei looked surprised.

"Gu Sheng, are you serious?"

"Of course, otherwise what do you think I'm doing all day and night? You pick out the herbs, and I'll prepare the things. We'll brew up the medicine tonight and see if it works."

Understanding what he meant, Hong Mei immediately got busy with him.

For a whole night, neither of them slept, and they tried their best to cook a bowl of herbal medicine.

As soon as it got dark, the two people arrived at the door of Peerless Hermit.

Feeling the breath of the two people, Peerless Hermit opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, Gu Sheng brought the medicine over.

"Peerless Hermit, this is the decoction made from my newly developed prescription. If you drink it, it will definitely be effective! Although I cannot guarantee that it can cure your poison, my prescription will definitely be effective. You believe me!"

Seeing his serious look, Peerless Hermit smiled.

"If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't drink so many bowls of medicine from you."

After saying that, she took the medicine bowl from Gu Sheng's hand and drank the medicine inside in one gulp.

After drinking the decoction, she turned around and sat down. The spiritual energy around her body was released and she began to mobilize the energy in her Dantian.

Gu Sheng and Hong Mei stood by, staring at her without blinking, so nervous that they didn't even dare to breathe.

It wasn't until daybreak that Peerless Hermit's spiritual energy suddenly exploded.

Feeling this spiritual energy, both of their eyes lit up.

Their emotions were rising, but the two of them didn't dare to say anything. They could only hold each other's hands and squeeze each other's fingers tightly.

After an unknown amount of time, Peerless Hermit finally opened his eyes.

She exhaled a long breath, then raised her lips.

"Gu Sheng, thank you. This prescription of yours is really useful for me. Although it cannot undo the poison in my body, it can relieve all my symptoms and restore some of my magical power, so that I don't have to suffer every day."

Hearing this, Gu Sheng let out a long breath.

"Great! I finally found a useful prescription."

"Gu Sheng, thank you very much. I have tried hundreds of prescriptions, but they all didn't work. I didn't expect you to save me once."

Hearing Peerless Hermit's words, Gu Sheng shook his head repeatedly.

"Don't say that. I just happened to research it. Don't worry about it, as long as it's useful to you."

As soon as Gu Sheng finished speaking, the voices of Bai Yu and Lan Yao were heard in the distance.

When he turned around, Peerless Hermit said with a smile, "They are finally out of seclusion. Go meet them."

Gu Sheng nodded and walked quickly outside.

When he saw several people walking side by side towards him, Gu Sheng raised his lips high.
