Chapter 308 Book Gift
"The Gu Yueming you mentioned, the hall master once mentioned her to me. She is the last child of the Gu Yue family. It's a pity that she has evil intentions and a weird personality."

"Unlike your eccentric personality... She seems to be someone who has fallen into a quagmire a long time ago and wants to climb out but can't. You are the kind of person who will swim on your back even if you are in a quagmire."

"This girl is beyond saving."

The book keeper sighed, his tone sincere, and at the end he said with emotion, "Before you came, I even thought that the incident of Shifangmen this time was related to her. Now I, an old man, also think so."

Jiang Su narrowed her eyes slightly and stared at the slightly swaying flame of the lamp wick not far away. Through the warm light, she seemed to see a way out that had trapped her in the fog for the past few days.

She didn't know Gu Yueming, and she had no idea why this man did what he did.

From the very beginning, Gu Yueming's purpose confused her.

"What on earth does she want to do..." Jiang Su murmured to herself, her voice very soft, and along with the chillness around her body, it shattered in the truth.

At the right time, the book keeper coughed lightly and said, "Jiang Su, go now. You have never experienced a war between sects. Over the past hundreds of thousands of years in the upper realm, even the most powerful immortal sects have fallen and shattered. That was a fight between the strong and the powerful. You are not suitable to participate."

The old man suddenly raised his hand and rubbed his wrinkled face with his rough fingers, and he couldn't help feeling melancholy, "I'm old, the library is here, I'm here, I can't even move anymore."

He pulled the corners of his mouth, and a smile blossomed on his gray face along with the wrinkles. "You are right. You are still young. You ascended from the lower world at the age of fifteen. Now you are only twenty years old, but you have already reached the realm of heavenly immortals. You, Jiang Su, are indeed a rare genius. When I was twenty years old, I was still discussing whether the storybook was good with some little girl."

"Jiang Su, listen to me."

"A cultivator who attains the Tao and becomes an immortal can live a long life, but not eternal life."

"No one is immortal, not even priests."

"Let's go."

Jiang Su's expression was cold, but her teeth were clenched tightly, and veins were creeping up on the few pieces of flesh on her cheeks.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to go...

She was just so angry.

She knew that the ring was a sin, and the Mirror Lake would be of no use to her in the future when she opened a clinic on the floating island in Middle-earth.

It can be said that all this has nothing to do with her.

But...are these people trying to steal her things?!
As long as the cabinet exists, she will be a member of the Shifangmen cabinet. She can always come back at any time to drink a ladle of water from the Mirror Lake, and then climb on the mirror at will, sleeping with her arms open.

However, in the end, someone from the Punishment Hall would definitely send her back to her cave quietly, and she would pay the fine obediently when she woke up the next day.

But this kind of life is gone.

The immortal sects in the upper realm are all greedy by nature, but Jiang Su is half a profiteer, so she is also greedy enough.

"I will tell Meng Hui about your words. Now I'm leaving." She stood up and was about to go downstairs.

"Wait——" the book keeper suddenly called her again.

Jiang Su suddenly turned around, and what she saw was...

An old man with brown spots and wrinkles on his face was standing under the warm candlelight, staring at him with cloudy eyes. He said,
"Jiang Su, you like the book about hating Changsheng, right? I have a few copies in my book cabinet, they are old and tattered, you can take them all."

The book keeper muttered again, "Young man, please take care of your health. His book...is not very good and not interesting. I don't know why you like it."

"..."

Before Jiang Su could react, he had already thrown five books at her, and Jiang Su caught them one by one in a somewhat hurried manner.

The curse words came out of his mouth, but in the end, they turned into a short sentence between his lips and teeth, "Okay, I know."

She suddenly put her finger between her eyebrows and threw a ball of white light at the old man. Jiang Su slowly went downstairs and never looked back.

The book keeper saw Jiang Su put the books in the storage bracelet without reading them carefully, and murmured, "I can't tell how much you like them."

"I have hated longevity... I have hated it for tens of thousands of years, and now I have finally gotten what I wanted."

“Why can’t I become a god?”

He muttered softly and placed the white light between his eyebrows.

"Let me see how Xiao Huihui is doing recently."

The candlelight beside him flickered on and off, and the study returned to endless darkness.

……

Jiang Su felt heavy in her heart and her steps became heavier when she went downstairs. Just as she turned around to go down to the third floor, she suddenly heard the rustling sound of clothes behind her.

Who else would be on the fourth floor? Xie Pingsheng?
Jiang Su paused, turned around, and saw the person's apricot-colored skirt.

"This skirt has a nice color." She said casually, slowly raising her eyes with a nonchalant attitude.

Shi Qiuxian has curved eyebrows and a smile as gentle as water. Her long black hair flutters in the breeze behind her, like the shadow of young grass under the warm sun, outlining her graceful figure with a different kind of beauty.

With lips slightly parted, he said in a gentle voice, "Medical Immortal Jiang, long time no see."

Jiang Su said calmly, "Yeah." Then he frowned and asked in confusion, "Why don't you leave? Didn't the hall master persuade you to leave?"

She didn't know whether Shi Qiuxian knew what was going to happen in Shifang Sect soon.

Shi Qiuxian was stunned for a moment, then walked forward gently and said, "I've persuaded you, but I won't leave."

Jiang Su frowned even more tightly, and said in a serious tone, "You are an alchemy practitioner, right? Are you not leaving because you can't bear to leave, or do you want to take this opportunity to earn money for alchemy?"

Shi Qiuxian knew what she was thinking, and continued to smile, even more happily, "I want to go with you. I asked a fortune teller a few days ago, and he said you would come back. I was afraid that you didn't know the current situation, and it would be bad if you encountered danger."

Jiang Su's expression eased slightly, "Okay, let's go."

She continued to go downstairs, with no intention of getting entangled with this man anymore.

The two walked out of the gate of Huichun Hall one after the other.

Zhang Cai, who was working in the treasure room at the door, looked at the beautiful apricot-colored figure with a helpless expression, "The hall master is really worried..."

Jiang Su got all the information she wanted this time. As for the fact that the cabinet was the gate to the divine realm, she didn't have time to study it in detail.

Fearing that something might happen, she couldn't wait to leave the details on a communication talisman and send it to her senior brothers and sisters as well as Jiang Feng.

She stepped on the scimitar and flew in the air, followed closely by Shi Qiuxian. When they reached a certain place, she suddenly said, "Shi Qiuxian, you should leave first. I still need to go back to my cave."

The apricot-clothed female cultivator smiled slightly and said gently, "It's okay, I can accompany you."

Jiang Su's face was cold and gloomy, "But I don't want to go with you."

Her tone was extremely cold, her rejection was very blunt, and there was even a hint of annoyance in her tone.

Shi Qiuxian's expression froze slightly, and she pulled the corners of her mouth awkwardly, smiling bitterly, "Why?"

Jiang Su answered very calmly, "Because you are lying to me too."

"You're not planning on leaving Shifangmen, are you? There's no need for you and me to put on a show."
