C509 Doubt!

"Does Fellow Taoist Lin still have some concerns?"

Gu Yuanhua couldn't help but ask when he saw that Lin Cheng didn't reply and was only frowning in thought.

Lin Cheng looked at him and said, "I don't have any concerns, but I have a few questions that I hope senior can answer."

"Just tell me about the Fellow Taoist. I will tell you everything I know." Gu Yuanhua immediately said.

"Very well. I would like to ask Senior about the position of Guest Elder. What exactly do you mean?" Without the slightest hesitation or hesitation, Lin Cheng asked directly. " What I want to know is, if I become a guest elder of the Longevity Sect... What do I need to do? Or, what should I do? Only then can I fulfill my status. "

Although Zou Qingqi had invited him more than once in Tianluo Secret Realm, at that time, Zou Qingqi only invited him to be a guest elder of Longevity Sect, not a guest elder.

If he was a guest elder, then the restrictions between him and the Longevity Sect could be said to be non-essential. Because he was just a guest elder, or to put it bluntly. He was just a guest of the Longevity Sect, but a more important and fixed guest. He could enjoy the resources of the Longevity Sect to a limited extent.

At the same time, if the Longevity Sect was in trouble, or if they needed him to pay the price, he would only pay the price.

Of course, if the Longevity Sect needed some kind of pill, and Lin Cheng happened to be able to refine this kind of pill... At that time, he naturally would not reject it. However, the Longevity Sect also needed to spend Spirit Stone or other Heaven-earth Treasures. Purchasing from him was merely because of their relationship. The price would definitely not be higher than the other alchemists in the outside world.

Similarly, if Lin Cheng needed any items or materials, or if it was more precious, he would also need to pay the Longevity Sect for it.

This was a guest elder!

However, the guest elder that Gu Yuanhua mentioned was different. This was also the reason why Lin Cheng hesitated.

Since the guest elder had the word 'elder' in his name, he was basically half a member of the Longevity Sect. Furthermore, he was a member of the Longevity Sect who had a great responsibility.

In this way, Lin Cheng would certainly be greatly restrained. This was something that he didn't want to see.

"Guest elder, the Fellow Taoist should understand. Given the current situation of the Longevity Sect, even if the Fellow Taoist becomes the elder of our sect, it would naturally be qualified. It wouldn't be an exaggeration."

Gu Yuanhua said, "However, because the Fellow Taoist wasn't originally a disciple of the Longevity Sect, it would appear a little too impatient if it were to become the elder from the very beginning. So..."

"Senior, you might have misunderstood my meaning."

Lin Cheng frowned when he heard this. According to what Gu Yuanhua said, it seemed like he wasn't satisfied with the position of a guest elder. Obviously, Gu Yuanhua didn't understand what he meant. "Senior, what I mean is, if I become the guest elder... What do I need to do? Or rather, what request does the Longevity Sect have for me?"

When Gu Yuanhua heard this, he could not help but laugh. "There's no need for the Fellow Taoist to have any concerns. The title of Guest Elder... Actually, it's only because the strength of the Fellow Taoist is sufficient. If it's just being a guest elder... It will damage the dignity of the Fellow Taoist. As for what it wants to do... There was no need for the Fellow Taoist to have any concerns. The Longevity Sect did not have any requirements for the Fellow Taoist. No matter what the Fellow Taoist wanted to do, as long as it was harmless to the Longevity Sect... Just do whatever you want with the Fellow Taoist."

"So that's how it is."

Lin Cheng nodded and glanced at Gu Yuanhua. At this moment, he had realized... In fact, Gu Yuanhua did not misunderstand him. What he said just now was obviously intentional. Was he trying to get him to truly join the Longevity Sect, or was he trying to test his thoughts?

"What other concerns does the Fellow Taoist have?" Gu Yuanhua asked again.

"I don't think so. I just have some doubts." Lin Cheng said, "I am indebted to senior for taking me seriously and making me a guest elder of Longevity Sect. But in the eyes of outsiders, I am just a traitorous disciple of the Unification Sect. If I really join the Longevity Sect, wouldn't senior be worried? This will cause dissatisfaction in the Unification Sect, and they might even attack the Longevity Sect? "

This was also what Lin Cheng had always been puzzled about. Previously, in the Tianluo Secret Realm, it was precisely after Zou Qingqi found out that he was a traitor of the Unification Sect that she didn't invite him to be a guest elder of the Longevity Sect. Obviously, she didn't want to offend the Unification Sect and establish a strong enemy for the Longevity Sect.

Now that Gu Yuanhua had invited him to be a guest elder of the Longevity Sect, wasn't he afraid of offending the Unification Sect?

"If it was in the past, I naturally wouldn't be afraid. In fact... The Unification Sect might not come here to denounce you for being a guest elder of our sect, but the Longevity Sect has declined after all. It is indeed inappropriate to offend a powerful sect like the Unification Sect. "

Gu Yuanhua nodded and said frankly.

Lin Cheng couldn't help but frown, "If that's the case, then Senior, bring up the matter of the guest elder..."

"This is also one of the reasons why Longevity Sect doesn't have any requirements for the Fellow Taoist."

Gu Yuanhua clearly understood Lin Cheng's doubts. Without waiting for Lin Cheng to finish speaking, he said, "This guest elder, it's just that you know, I know. No one else will know about it after leaving the mountain gate of the Longevity Sect."

Lin Cheng couldn't help but be stunned, "Senior, you mean... you will only admit that I am a guest elder of your sect in private, but outside, you won't admit it?"2

Gu Yuanhua nodded his head frankly and said, "This is also a forced action. The current Longevity Sect is far from being a match for the Unification Sect, and they are powerless to resist the pressure brought by the Unification Sect. This is the only way."

When Lin Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but frown. He looked at Gu Yuanhua and asked, "If that's the case, then what's the difference between me being a guest elder or not?"

It was only a guest elder that he had privately admitted. After leaving the sect, he no longer admitted it. Perhaps, not many people in the Longevity Sect knew of his existence as a guest elder. Such an explanation made Lin Cheng feel that it was somewhat absurd.

Gu Yuanhua smiled and said, "There is naturally a difference in this. Although there are still some resources left in our sect, they are still preserved. Actually, there is not much left. If the Fellow Taoist is our guest, then... Of course you can enjoy these resources. If our sect needs any help, the Fellow Taoist will naturally not sit by and do nothing. "

Lin Cheng could not help but shake his head when he heard this. He smiled and said, "Senior, do you mean that if I do not become a guest elder, I will not be able to obtain the resources of your sect?"

Gu Yuanhua said, "Of course not. It's the honor of the Longevity Sect to have the Fellow Taoist come to pay a visit. As long as it's something that our Longevity Sect can take out, the Fellow Taoist can be used."

Lin Cheng raised his eyebrows. He seemed to have somewhat understood what Gu Yuanhua meant.

Putting aside the matter of the guest elders, even if Lin Cheng came as a guest, the Longevity Sect would still welcome him warmly. They would even be willing to give him some resources to befriend him.

However, if Lin Cheng took these resources, he would inevitably owe the Longevity Sect a favor. The more precious the things that the Longevity Sect could offer, the more Lin Cheng owed them. Naturally, he would have to return the favor. Lin Cheng couldn't do something like taking someone else's item without paying back.

As a matter of fact, even if Lin Cheng could do it, he wouldn't be able to do it. Perhaps, the Longevity Sect had fallen into decline. It wouldn't pose much of a threat to Lin Cheng, but at least from now on... * Hong Long...... *

Furthermore, compared to reputation, this kind of immoral behavior would probably affect his future cultivation. Therefore, Lin Cheng had to return this favor.

If Lin Cheng took away these resources as a guest elder of Longevity Sect, it would be reasonable. However, he needed to put in some effort when the Longevity Sect was in trouble. The word 'guest' had already decided that Lin Cheng didn't need to risk his life for the sake of the sect like the disciples of Longevity Sect. He needed to live and die with the sect.

In particular, Gu Yuanhua had suggested that he privately acknowledge Lin Cheng's identity as a guest elder. This was also for his own good, because in this way, the Longevity Sect wouldn't need to attract the Unification Sect's dissatisfaction and revenge. At the same time, Lin Cheng wouldn't be targeted by the Myriad Sword Sect. This was killing two birds with one stone.

However, Gu Yuanhua had neglected a problem. Why did Lin Cheng need the resources of the Longevity Sect?

Without those resources, Lin Cheng had also advanced step by step from Junior Cultivating Warrior to today. He wasn't too far away from the Divine Ability Stage, and his combat strength had reached the Divine Ability Stage. He could even fight against those who had just entered the Divine Ability Stage.

Since he was able to do this in the past, Lin Cheng was confident that he would be able to break through to the Divine Ability Stage in the future with his own hard work, or even further.

Therefore, although Gu Yuanhua's suggestion was good, it was not necessary for Lin Cheng.

Even if Lin Cheng really needed enough resources to cultivate, he might not necessarily choose the declining Longevity Sect.

"I appreciate Senior's good intention. However, I am a wild and unruly man, and I can't be restrained by anything. So..." Lin Cheng was about to refuse when he was suddenly interrupted by Gu Yuanhua.

"Don't be in a hurry to reject the Fellow Taoist. It's not too late to make a decision after listening to what this old man has to say!" Gu Yuanhua said with a smile.

Lin Cheng raised his eyebrows and nodded, "Senior, please speak."

Gu Yuanhua said with a smile, "Fellow Taoist has some concerns in its heart. I understand. If we are on the ground, then... I also have the same concerns. After all, how long can the Longevity Sect still exist? I'm afraid it's still unknown. At this time, it has become a guest elder. I'm afraid that it's unknown whether I will be implicated or not. "

Just as Lin Cheng was about to speak, Gu Yuanhua raised his hand and spoke first, "Don't worry about the Fellow Taoist. I know that you might not have such thoughts, but if it was me, I would definitely think so."

Lin Cheng smiled and didn't say anything else. He patiently listened to Gu Yuanhua.
