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

However, it was not appropriate to explain the truth to Mu Wanqing.

"Of course Ling'er knows that Brother Wutian is not a good person. He always says that he is a bad person. But Ling'er likes him, likes him a lot, and doesn't want to leave him."

Mu Wanqing saw Zhong Ling, whose eyes shone brightly, as if she had transcended time and space to follow Gu Hanyuan's silhouette.

I just felt envious of her courage in expressing her feelings.

She knew that no matter how much she tried to persuade her, it would be to no avail.

After that, he stopped trying to persuade her and let Zhong Ling take him to find the Black Rose.

"Little thing, why don't you come out yourself?"

Gu Hanyuan noticed a small animal clinging to his back as soon as he set off.

It turned out to be the Lightning Sable.

The lightning ferret climbed onto Gu Hanyuan's shoulder and nuzzled his neck affectionately with its little head.

Gu Hanyuan found it somewhat amusing. Although the Lightning Sable was initially afraid of him, it actually enjoyed rubbing against him after getting used to him.

Perhaps it's because she feels safe with Gu Hanyuan protecting her.

Gu Hanyuan originally didn't want to bring the Lightning Sable, but he remembered a scene from Duan Yu's story and thought that having the Lightning Sable to lead the way would be faster.

"Lightning Sable, do you know where the Manggu Toad is?"

The Lightning Sable followed Gu Hanyuan after smelling the scent of the Manggu Toad.

Gu Hanyuan felt that it had no self-awareness whatsoever, and the toxicity of the two was completely incomparable.

While the poison from the Lightning Sable is difficult to cure and takes at least five days to heal, the Manggu Toad dies instantly upon contact with it.

They actually thought about hunting Manggu Toads; they were incredibly audacious.

The intelligent Lightning Sable seemed to understand Gu Hanyuan's words, nodding its little head and letting out a soft cry.

Gu Hanyuan couldn't understand what it was saying.

However, I roughly understood the meaning: I hugged the lightning ferret and let it guide me.

Gu Hanyuan traveled at a fast pace, and without Zhong Ling's burden, he fully activated the Lingbo Weibu technique.

A dark shadow was constantly moving through the woods; if an ordinary person saw it, they would probably shout that it was haunted.

Before long, Gu Hanyuan found a cliff.

One thing to note is that Dali's terrain is indeed complex, with various cliffs where one could easily slip and fall.

After the Lightning Sable gestured downwards, Gu Hanyuan used the "Ladder Cloud Leap" technique to jump down.

After using the leverage several times, they indeed saw a protruding platform on the cliff face.

After landing, Gu Hanyuan saw a cave and went inside without hesitation.

After walking a few steps, they saw Duan Yu lying unconscious on the ground.

Most likely, they were knocked unconscious from the fall.

Without the protection of the Northern Darkness Divine Skill, it's a miracle he didn't break any arms or legs after falling down; that's just the protagonist's amazing halo.

Suddenly, the lightning ferret started squeaking excitedly.

Then I heard several loud shouts: "Jiang Ang, Jiang Ang, Jiang Ang!"

The Lightning Sable, which had been in a hunting posture, immediately became timid after the Manggu Toad appeared.

The little girl nestled her head against Gu Hanyuan's chest, acting coquettishly, as if she wanted him to stand up for her.

Gu Hanyuan chuckled and gently stroked the Lightning Sable's head to calm it down.

The Manggu Zhuha resembled a toad, no more than two inches long, its entire body was crimson red, its eyes gleaming with golden light, and its whole body was vermilion.

At that moment, he was chasing a centipede and jumped towards Duan Yu.

Gu Hanyuan took out several golden needles from his storage space and threw them over there.

The centipede was pinned to the ground.

But the Manggu Toad leaped up and dodged at the last second.

Gu Hanyuan was somewhat surprised. Although his "Hibiscus Golden Needle" technique was only at the beginner level and he hadn't been too serious just now, it was still an internal energy cultivation at the peak of the Grandmaster level.

Surprisingly, the Manggu Toad managed to dodge it.

At this moment, the Manggu Zhuha was watching Gu Hanyuan warily from a distance, letting out a loud roar of "Jiang Ang, Jiang Ang, Jiang Ang".

They have clearly felt threatened.

The poison of the Manggu Toad is too strong, so even Gu Hanyuan is unwilling to come into contact with it and can only use remote attack methods.

It's a pity that the "Holy Spirit Sword Technique" can't use "Sword Nineteen" yet, otherwise it could directly launch sword energy.

Seeing that Gu Hanyuan did not move, the Manggu Toad took the initiative and jumped into the air, spewing out a mouthful of poisonous gas.

Gu Hanyuan used his Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) to easily dodge the attack, and then several golden needles pierced the air, directly striking the back of the Manggu Zhuha (a mythical toad), sending it flying.

"A beast is a beast. Doesn't it know that you can't dodge when you're jumping in the air?"

If the Manggu Toad remained stationary, Gu Hanyuan was still unsure how to deal with it.

Choosing to jump up and spray poison is practically suicide.

After knocking the Manggu Toad to the ground, its voice immediately weakened.

However, just in case, Gu Hanyuan threw a few more golden needles over, almost turning the Manggu Toad into a hedgehog, and only stopped when its cries completely ceased.

As Gu Hanyuan approached, he noticed that the golden needles embedded in the Manggu Toad were already showing signs of corrosion.

It was indeed highly toxic; I wonder how Duan Yu managed to eat it without his intestines being poisoned.

Is it just the protagonist's halo?

The Lightning Sable became restless after seeing the Manggu Toad die.

Gu Hanyuan pressed it down.

"Don't be silly. Even if the Manggu Toad is dead, the poison on its skin can still kill you. I'll give it to you to eat after I refine it into a pill."

Gu Hanyuan had no intention of testing whether his stomach could withstand the poison of the Manggu Toad.

He's not even the main character; he's a villain.

What if I actually get poisoned to death? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?

Chapter 33: A Peeping Glance at Mu Wanqing

Gu Hanyuan threw the Manggu Toad along with the unusable Furong Golden Needle into his storage space.

Seeing that the Manggu Toad had suddenly disappeared, the Lightning Sable curiously crawled all over Gu Hanyuan, as if trying to find it.

Gu Hanyuan caught him, and he was lying face down with his four legs in the air.

The lightning ferret suddenly began to wriggle excitedly, squeaking and chattering.

"Are you shy? So you're a 'girl' after all."

Gu Hanyuan said with a smile.

I just felt that the lightning ferret was a little too intelligent.

If it were a fantasy world, there's a high chance it would be able to take human form.

After Gu Hanyuan released the Lightning Sable, it started throwing a tantrum.

She leaned on Gu Hanyuan's shoulder and turned her head away, looking like she didn't want to talk to him.

In the end, it was only by using the poisonous centipede that had been pinned to the ground from the beginning that Gu Hanyuan managed to coax the Lightning Sable.

It kept chirping something in Gu Hanyuan's ear.

It was probably a warning against him monopolizing the Manggu Toad.

Gu Hanyuan picked up Duan Yu, who was still unconscious, and returned to the top of the cliff, retracing the original path.

On the way back, I used my divine sense to confirm Mu Wanqing's location.

As expected, she was settling things in Tanna, not far from where Black Rose was.

Gu Hanyuan had already planned this when he treated Black Rose, and he deliberately chose a place with a pool nearby.

Sure enough, Mu Wanqing went there to take a bath.

She had been injured in a fight before, and her body was covered in blood and dust.

People in the martial arts world can tolerate things when they don't have the means, but given the means, what girl wouldn't love cleanliness?

Zhong Ling also planned to take a bath, but she would wait until after Mu Wanqing to take one.

Mu Wanqing had considered the possibility that Gu Hanyuan might return and see them, which is why she decided to take a bath first.

He just didn't expect Gu Hanyuan to bring Duan Yu back so quickly.

Gu Hanyuan brought the unconscious Duan Yu to the pool where Mu Wanqing was.

Sure enough, Mu Wanqing was carefully cleaning her body.
