Master of Martial Arts, please enjoy a drunken revelry in the martial world.

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Feixuan's expression changed slightly.

"Are you the mysterious person who stole the Longevity Manual right under Yuwen Huaji's nose?"

Gu Qianbei nodded slightly, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"Yes, it's me. I just happened to be passing by, so I didn't stand on ceremony."

Such treasures are meant to be obtained by those with the right destiny, aren't they?

Shi Feixuan frowned slightly and looked at Gu Qianbei more carefully.

Does that mean the Twin Dragons are now connected to the Demonic Sect?

This is not a good thing.

"You obtained the Longevity Scripture, yet instead of cultivating it yourself, you passed it on to the Twin Dragons. What are you planning to do?"

Shi Feixuan asked.

"I found those two boys agreeable, so I formed a good relationship with them."

Furthermore, how do you know I haven't cultivated the Longevity Technique?

"You've cultivated the Longevity Technique?"

Shi Feixuan exclaimed in surprise.

But she quickly accepted this fact.

Gu Qianbei's cultivation level is so high that it would be entirely understandable if he had cultivated the Longevity Technique.

After all, it was one of the Four Great Books, and ranked second only to the War God's Record among the Four Great Books, even surpassing the Compassionate Sword Manual she cultivated.

Furthermore, both dragons were trained by the other party, so it's perfectly normal for the other party to know the Longevity Technique.

"For me, cultivation is not difficult."

Gu Qianbei said with a smile.

The secret to immortality was indeed not that difficult for him.

Having learned the trick, he had already mastered it quite well.

The Golden Light Mantra, further enhanced by the Longevity Mantra, became even more powerful.

These are all Taoist supernatural powers, and they have many things in common.

The Longevity Technique deepened Gu Qianbei's foundation, making his path after breaking through to the Celestial Realm much smoother.

A good foundation can indeed help one go higher and further.

"Young Master Gu is indeed a genius."

As Shi Feixuan praised him, her mind raced with thoughts, seemingly considering how to deal with Gu Qianbei.

It's no secret that Gu Qianbei is Wanwan's man.

Cihang Jingzhai received the news immediately.

Shi Feixuan still remembers the shock she felt at the time.

The saintess and the demoness have been rivals since they were each conferred their titles, so they are very interested in each other's news.

She had always wanted to see what kind of man Wanwan was.

Now that she has seen it, she realizes that it is indeed not Wanwan's fault.

With immense strength, astonishing talent, and exceptionally handsome looks that few can match, such a man is indeed capable of conquering most women in the world.

But what surprised her even more was that the other party seemed to be playing a game of chess.

The "Double Dragons" refers to two pieces on the opponent's chessboard.

What is his purpose?

Shi Feixuan was completely taken aback.

For a moment, Gu Qianbei was a complete mystery in Shi Feixuan's eyes.

If it were an ordinary person, Shi Feixuan wouldn't bother to pay attention.

However, Gu Qianbei's relationship with the Demonic Sect is extraordinary. If this game is related to the fate of all living beings and to their Cihang Jingzhai, then she cannot ignore it.

Gu Qianbei was naturally unaware that Shi Feixuan had added so much drama to his performance. Seeing that she remained silent, he continued to ask, "Miss Shi, you still haven't answered my question."

Are the Twin Dragons around here?

Shi Feixuan snapped out of her daze and looked at Gu Qianbei with a more probing gaze.

"The two dragons have indeed appeared in the vicinity, and I am also looking for them."

But I don't know their exact whereabouts either.

"I see."

Gu Qianbei suddenly realized.

"Thank you for telling me this, young lady. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

Gu Qianbei was about to leave after speaking, but Shi Feixuan called out, "Wait!"

"Is there anything else, Miss Shi?"

Gu Qianbei turned around and asked in confusion.

"Are you and Wanwan really lovers?"

Gu Qianbei raised an eyebrow, not expecting that the Holy Maiden of Cihang Jingzhai was quite gossipy.

"good."

"You want to join the Demonic Sect?"

"I'm not marrying into the family, so why should I join the Demonic Sect?"

Gu Qianbei looked at Shi Feixuan with a strange expression.

"From the outside world's perspective, you being with Wanwan makes you look like a son-in-law of the Demonic Sect."

"Um...is it that awkward?"

Gu Qianbei scratched his head and said, "I'm a Celestial Realm expert, with immense wealth and countless tavern branches. To still treat me like a son-in-law is going too far, isn't it?"

Shi Feixuan was taken aback upon hearing this.

That seems to make sense.

The reason why outsiders have this idea is quite simple.

Gu Qianbei was not well-known in Daliang, and no one else knew his exact cultivation level.

It was said that some lucky young man had won the favor of the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect.

Who would have thought that this was actually a Celestial Realm expert, whose strength far surpassed that of Zhu Yuyan, the leader of the Yin Gui Sect.

"In short, I have no intention of joining the Demonic Sect."

Wanwan and I have only a personal relationship; it has nothing to do with any power struggles.

I am but a wandering wanderer in the martial world, a winemaker in this mortal realm.

I'm not particularly interested in matters of the martial arts world, nor do I want to get too involved.

Gu Qianbei shook his head and said.

He just wants to have fun right now.

"I see, I understand now."

Young Master Gu possesses great talent, yet he harbors a carefree attitude towards life, which is a real waste.

The people are suffering terribly these days, and someone needs to step forward to work for their well-being. Young Master Gu, don't you want to contribute to this cause?

Shi Feixuan patiently guided her, bringing up the greater good.

This was a required course at Cihang Jingzhai, so she could speak it without much thought.

Gu Qianbei was taken aback when he heard this.

Good grief, why are you suddenly saying this to me?

Is this an attempt to win me over?

"Miss Shi, I have heard of the Cihang Jingzhai's philosophy. In prosperous times, they remain secluded in the mountains; in chaotic times, they descend to find a great ruler to unify the world."

To be honest, that's a really big face.

Gu Qianbei's words caused Shi Feixuan's expression to freeze instantly.

In her opinion, the greatness of Cihang Jingzhai needs no further explanation, but in Gu Qianbei's mouth, it actually became a matter of shamelessness.

This was something she simply couldn't accept.

"Young Master Gu, watch your words!"

Shi Feixuan was slightly angry, and her expression beneath the veil showed some dissatisfaction.

"I am speaking from the heart. Whether the people are doing well or not has little to do with whether the king is a great ruler or not."

Throughout history, many powerful rulers have engaged in excessive military campaigns, leading to widespread suffering among the people.

As the saying goes, prosperity brings suffering to the people, and ruin brings suffering to the people.

Claiming to fight for the world is for the sake of the people; it's one thing to deceive the world, but don't deceive yourself as well.

Given the limitations of this era and the low level of productivity, expecting all people to live and work in peace and contentment was practically a pipe dream.

Instead of wasting your time, Cihang Jingzhai would be better off researching how to increase the yield of wheat and sorghum per mu (unit of land area), which would be more practical for the people.

As for the struggle for supremacy, even without you, the most powerful person will still emerge victorious.

Do you, of all the talents in the world, really think that the Cihang Jingzhai is inferior to yourselves?
