Chen Sheng also reached out and held Li Wuji’s palm.

As their palms touched.

He had a more intuitive feeling of Li Wuji’s physical condition.

His body was like a lamp running out of oil.

The increasingly faint heartbeat resembled a weak candle in the wind, which could go out at any moment. “Hey, old man, you…”

Chen Sheng’s eyes narrowed.

Could it be this reason that Li gave him the Heart Mark?

“Young friend, don’t worry.”

“Even if my strength is but a fraction of what it was, changing bodies is a simple thing.”

“So, you don’t need to feel burdened.”

As if afraid that Chen Sheng would think he was morally blackmailing him, Li Wuji quickly explained.

Chen Sheng remained silent.

As if thinking.

After a while,

He finally spoke up slowly.

“I need benefits.”

At this statement.

Both Li Wuji and Sun Yihe had smiles on their faces.

That Chen Sheng would say this.

Shows that he already agreed with the other party.

As for the benefits.

Life in the world is about wealth and power.

Martial arts cultivation is about resources and techniques.

These things.

Both Li Wuji and Sun Yihe could provide.

“You can choose any secret skills and breathing techniques from Yihe Gate.”

Sun Yihe said.

“I can also provide the resources you need for your cultivation.”

Li Wuji took over the conversation.

“In the future, no matter what you need.”

“As long as it’s reasonable and legal, I can agree.”

“This is my promise as the president of the Martial Arts Association.”

Chen Sheng nodded.

“What are the Four Saints of the Holy Sect responsible for?” “I need to cultivate and can’t waste too much time on this.”

“Don’t worry.”

“Under normal circumstances, the Four Saints only need to take tasks from the Sect Leader.”

“For specific matters, just leave them to the people under you.”

“When it comes to situations you can’t handle, we’ll step in.”

“Most of the time, you’ll have plenty of free time, and no one will care what you

“

The lazy voice of Vermilion Bird came from outside.

He was holding a bag of steaming hot buns and fried dough sticks in his hand.

“Want one?”

While speaking,

Vermilion Bird raised the bag in his hand, and his questioning gaze fell on the three of them.

No one paid any attention to him.

He could only mutter silently to himself.

“And one last question.” Chen Sheng looked at Li Wuji.

“Please.” Li Wuji gestured. “When do we leave?”

“Two days later.”

“You can talk to Vermilion Bird in a while and figure out how to communicate.”

“As for the preparations, I’ll take care of them in advance.”

At this point,

Li Wuji showed a thoughtful look.

“Xuanwu tried to regain control.”

“But the opponent was too strong, causing Xuanwu and others to perish.” “Vermilion Bird stepped in to pursue, but the enemy was too powerful and fled in defeat.’

“During the pursuit, the two fought several times, and Vermilion Bird felt that the opponent had great potential.”

“Eventually, under Vermilion Bird’s persuasion, the person who tried to seize power decided to join the Holy Sect.” “How about this reason?”

Li Wuji explained with a smile on his face.

“Extremely lame.”

Chen Sheng gave his evaluation with an emotionless expression.

“Are you sure that the Respected Elder and the others will believe this?” “Of course.”

“Many people in the Holy Sect joined under similar circumstances.”

“Since last night, I have already instructed my men to disguise themselves as you and Vermilion Bird and leave traces along the way.”

“And I have started to create a false identity for you in the Wu’an Bureau and Martial Arts Association.”

“For the Holy Sect’s personnel, the current Respected Elder simply treats them as expendables and will not pay much attention.”

Hearing this,

Chen Sheng nodded and didn’t say anything more.

Two days was already enough for him to upgrade his Thunder Breath again.

In the meantime, he also planned to try secret skills cultivation using the Heart Mark.

With good luck, he might be able to upgrade his secret skills as well.

“Alright.”

“I’ll join. ”

At this thought,

Chen Sheng didn’t say anything more.

After all, killing the Respected Elder and Xiang Li would be something he’d do sooner or later.

Now it’s just a matter of the difference between passive defense and active ottense.

“Happy cooperation.” “Happy cooperation.”

Smack.

Li Wuji and Chen Sheng’s palms clasped together again.

Smack, smack, smack, smack—

As soon as they finished speaking,

A round of applause sounded not far away.

Vermilion Bird had a bun in his mouth and tears in his eyes.

He clapped with one hand and walked towards Chen Sheng with open arms.

Smack!

Chen Sheng slapped Vermilion Bird’s head directly, stopping him in his tracks.

Vermilion Bird lifted his leg and froze in mid-air.

He tried to use force, but Chen Sheng’s hand didn’t budge.

Left with no choice,

He had to give up.

However, he still refused to keep quiet. “Good brother!”

“From now on, we’ll be partners.”

“Do you know how lonely and empty I’ve been undercover in the Holy Sect for so many years—”

“My heart is bitter!!”

Vermilion Bird said, his eyes filling with tears. Chen Sheng felt goosebumps all over.

“What’s so bitter about it?”

“You have a business to run, selling buildings, hosting parties.”

“Why don’t you trade with the old man?”

Sun Yihe raised an eyebrow and said unhappily.

He seemed to have strong objections to Vermilion Bird’s words.

At his words,

Vermilion Bird coughed twice.

“You don’t understand, you don’t.”

“You young people won’t understand the hardships of someone my age.” “Just because you’re two months older, you think you’re all that— As he spoke,

Sun Yihe rolled up his sleeves and dragged Vermilion Bird outside.

Vermilion Bird’s body was restrained, but his mouth was relentless.

Their quarrel grew louder and louder..
