In the martial arts world, he threatens Yin Susu from the start.

A single sentence perfectly captures her personality.

She was an exceptional maid with a temperament comparable to Shuang'er.

No wonder Lin Lingling became Lin Xian'er's personal maid.

It's not that she's particularly good.

Rather, she knew how to serve as a maid.

At this moment, Gu Hanyuan also remembered who Lin Lingling was.

She also had a role in the story, but her fate was rather bumpy.

She was Lin Xian'er's maid and Li Xunhuan's confidante.

Later, she lost her virginity to Lü Fengxian. When she took him to kill her former master Lin Xian'er, she was provoked by Lin Xian'er and was instead seriously injured by Lü Fengxian. In the end, she died in Li Xunhuan's arms.

Of course, the plot had already changed by then.

Li Xunhuan was imprisoned, and Lü Fengxian was injured by A Fei before he even had a chance to touch Lin Xian'er.

Gu Hanyuan smiled faintly, his eyes gleaming:

"Then how about you become my personal bell from now on?"

Lin Lingling was pleasantly surprised to hear this:

"Thank you, young master. This servant is willing."

Having said that, she put in even more effort to serve him.

Chapter 723: Li Xunhuan: Please take good care of Shiyin, Young Master Gu.

Ignoring Lin Xian'er's jealous look, Gu Hanyuan dressed himself in a refreshed manner with Lin Lingling's help and left Lengxiang Xiaozhu.

Although it was a dark and windy night, the perfect time for a tryst.

However, Gu Hanyuan went to the place where Li Xunhuan was imprisoned without alerting anyone.

Upon seeing Gu Hanyuan, Afei, who was guarding the door, asked in surprise:

"Brother Gu, why are you here?"

Gu Hanyuan chuckled lightly, a hint of sarcasm in his voice:

"Come and drink one last drink with the dying man."

Ah Fei was taken aback upon hearing this.

He asked in confusion:

"Brother Gu, are you talking about Li Xunhuan?"

Gu Hanyuan glanced at A Fei and said strangely:

"Who else could it be? Does Afei want to be the one who is about to die?"

Upon hearing this, Afei laughed awkwardly:

"Brother Gu is joking."

At this moment, Li Xunhuan, who had overheard their conversation, spoke up at the opportune moment:

"Thank you so much, Young Master Gu, for remembering to bring me wine at a time like this. I've been really bored without any wine."

Ah Fei unlocked the cell door.

Gu Hanyuan pushed open the door and entered, saying meaningfully:

"We've known each other for a while now, so we should at least grant Li Tanhua's wish. Besides, if we don't drink tonight, we might not have another chance."

Li Xunhuan remained silent for a moment upon hearing this, having already understood the meaning behind Gu Hanyuan's words.

In the end, all I could do was smile helplessly.

However, what he was more curious about at this moment was what wish Gu Hanyuan wanted to fulfill for him.

Li Xunhuan subconsciously thought of Lin Shiyin.

If there is any wish that has not been fulfilled, it is that the original purpose of returning to the Central Plains was to see Lin Shiyin again.

They did meet, but didn't even get a chance to speak.

He naturally felt regret.

However, based on his observation, it was highly unlikely that Gu Hanyuan would bring Lin Shiyin to see him.

He could only ask in confusion:

"My wish? May I ask what Young Master Gu is referring to?"

With a flick of his wrist, Gu Hanyuan produced an exquisite wine pot in his palm.

He chuckled and said:

"Hasn't Li Tanhua always wanted to drink Gu's finest wine? I've brought it for you."

Li Xunhuan's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this.

He hurriedly asked:

"What kind of wine is this?"

Gu Hanyuan placed the wine pot on the table and opened the lid.

The rich aroma of alcohol immediately filled the cell.

Gu Hanyuan spoke calmly, as Li Xunhuan and A Fei swallowed hard.

"This wine is called 'Nine Rhymes of Forgetfulness,' and it can only be drunk here in the world. It is most suitable for Li Tanhua to drink when he is troubled."

Gu Hanyuan's words struck a chord with Li Xunhuan, causing him to pause in surprise.

In the past, he could drown his sorrows in alcohol, but these past few days, being locked up here without any alcohol, his worries have only intensified.

A complex emotion flashed in Li Xunhuan's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

He pretended to be eager and said:

"Just the aroma of the wine is enough to make me restless."

Gu Hanyuan reached out and stopped Li Xunhuan's hand from grabbing the wine pot, and said calmly:

"Has Li Tanhua forgotten his own health condition? If he drinks like this, he might die suddenly. I, Gu, don't want to be blamed for this."

Having said that, he moved with lightning speed, piercing Li Xunhuan's body with several silver needles.

He placed a finger against Li Xunhuan's outstretched palm, and a surge of powerful internal energy flowed into it.

Li Xunhuan was amazed by the depth of Gu Hanyuan's internal strength.

At the same time, I felt that my physical ailments had improved a lot.

Before long, Li Xunhuan's complexion was no longer pale, but instead had a healthy rosy glow.

Gu Hanyuan withdrew his fingers and the silver needles, and said calmly:

"I have helped you get your health back in order, although it is only temporary. You can no longer drink alcohol."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and three exquisite porcelain cups landed steadily in front of the three of them.

The wine jug was tilted, and the crystal-clear wine poured into the glass.

Li Xunhuan, a notorious drunkard, immediately raised his cup and drank it down.

As I closed my eyes and reflected on it, I felt an unparalleled clarity in my mind.

My body also felt a sense of rebirth under the cleansing of spiritual energy.

The sorrow on his face vanished, replaced by a calm expression.

After a long while, Li Xunhuan finally exhaled a breath of alcohol and opened his eyes.

His eyes still held the marks of time, yet possessed a clear and insightful quality.

Li Xunhuan exclaimed in amazement:

"What a wonderful 'Nine Rhymes of Forget-Worries'! The nine distinct flavors of the wine blend together, making one feel as if they have experienced all the flavors of life in a short moment."

He came to his senses and said solemnly:

"Thank you, Young Master Gu, for giving me the opportunity to drink such fine wine. I owe you a favor."

It seems a bit cheap that a cup of wine could earn Li Xunhuan's favor.

However, what Li Xunhuan was actually drinking was not just wine, but life itself.

"Nine Rhymes of Forgetting Worries" allowed him to rediscover the meaning of life.

The regrets, pain, and sorrows that had once weighed heavily on him were all sorted out.

No longer was he entangled like a tangled mess, unable to move forward or backward.

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Gu Hanyuan's eyes, and he said meaningfully:

"Li Xunhuan's favor is certainly valuable, but I'm afraid I won't have the chance to accept it. After all, what use is a favor from a dead person?"
