It was Zhong Ling who had stayed at home overnight.

After dressing up nicely at home, Zhong Ling looked even more radiant, and with a delighted smile on her face, she rushed towards Gu Hanyuan.

"Brother Wutian!"

Even when she was surprised, Zhong Ling still remembered not to call out the wrong name.

Clearly, she had truly memorized every word Gu Hanyuan said.

Gu Hanyuan naturally understood Zhong Ling's thoughts, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

He caught Zhong Ling as she lunged at him, and spun her around in his arms.

"Why are you running so fast? What if you fall and get hurt?"

"Brother Wutian, Ling'er misses you."

For the first time, Zhong Ling understood what it meant to feel like three autumns had passed since they last met.

Although it was only one night, she kept thinking about Gu Hanyuan.

Even when faced with questions from their parents, they remained absent-minded.

"Ling'er, are your parents home?"

"It seems like Mom and Dad had something to do; they went out early this morning. Oh, isn't that Black Rose? Why is she with Brother Wutian? Where's Sister Mu?"

Zhong Ling then realized that Black Rose was with Gu Hanyuan, but Mu Wanqing was nowhere to be seen.

"It seems that Miss Mu has been kidnapped, and Black Rose came to me for help."

Gu Hanyuan explained the whole story to Zhong Ling, including what happened between Duan Zhengchun and his lovers last night, but he concealed the fact that he went to see Mu Wanqing.

"Brother Wutian, you're saying my father is Duan Zhengchun, and Zhong Wanchou isn't my biological father? That Duan Yu is my biological brother? That Sister Mu is my biological sister?"

Zhong Ling was quite surprised by this fact, and even somewhat confused.

"Yes, your mother has already given your birth date and time to Duan Zhengchun. Even if you don't ask, Duan Zhengchun will come to acknowledge your family sooner or later. I'll go rescue Miss Mu first. Ling'er, take Black Rose down and settle it properly, don't let it run around anymore."

Zhong Ling subconsciously took the reins from Gu Hanyuan, still reeling from the shock of learning the truth.

After Gu Hanyuan had been gone for a while, she dazedly led Black Rose back home.

After all, it's normal for her to not be able to accept that Zhong Wanchou, who had raised her for more than ten years, was suddenly no longer her biological father.

But Gu Hanyuan wasn't worried about Zhong Ling, because her greatest strength was her sunny and open-minded nature; she wasn't the type to get stuck on things. She just needed some time.

Although the secret chamber that Zhong Wanchou used to imprison Duan Yu and Mu Wanqing was very well hidden, Mu Wanqing had Gu Hanyuan's divine sense to locate her, so she found the place very easily.

The secret chamber was made entirely of stone, with only one skylight in the roof, which was ten feet high.

The sunroof is positioned so high, clearly to prevent anyone from escaping through it.

Chapter 36: A Useful Tool

Duan Yanqing and Zhong Wanchou were guarding outside the door, but Gan Baobao was nowhere to be seen.

At this moment, Zhong Wanchou slipped a plate of food through the crack in the door; it must have been spiked with something.

Without hesitation, Gu Hanyuan used the "Ladder Cloud Leap" technique to jump onto the roof from the back of the secret room.

He easily sliced ​​open the wooden skylight with the magic sword.

Duan Yu and Mu Wanqing were wondering why there was a sudden sound coming from above when they saw Gu Hanyuan leap down.

Duan Yu was about to eat the food, but upon seeing Gu Hanyuan, he put it down and exclaimed in surprise:

"Mr. Wutian, you've come to save me?"

"Keep your voice down, go and deal with those two outside first."

It turned out that Duan Yu's voice had been a bit too loud, alerting the two people outside.

After nodding to indicate that he understood, Duan Yu walked to the door and, through the iron gate, made up some nonsense to appease Duan Yanqing and Zhong Wanchou.

Mu Wanqing's eyes lit up as she looked at Gu Hanyuan, who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Just when she was feeling desperate after hearing Duan Yanqing and his companion's vicious plan, Gu Hanyuan saved her once again.

Already harboring some complicated thoughts, they now felt that their fate was indeed not yet over.

"You came to save me?"

Mu Wanqing asked in a low voice, somewhat embarrassed.

"The black rose came to me begging me to save its owner."

Gu Hanyuan decisively shifted the blame to Black Rose.

Mu Wanqing was speechless, wishing she could shoot him into a pincushion with a hidden arrow.

I don't know how Zhong Ling can stand that mouth.

By this time, Duan Yu had already fooled Duan Yanqing and the other man.

Although she was a little curious as to why Mu Wanqing's expression was not good, she still asked.

"How are we going to get out?"

"give it to me."

Gu Hanyuan reached out and grabbed Duan Yu's shoulder, pulling him up with him as they jumped.

Ordinary light-foot skills could not achieve this, not even "Lingbo Weibu" (a martial arts technique).

However, Gu Hanyuan happens to possess the "Ladder to the Clouds" skill, which allows him to ascend and descend vertically with exceptional skill.

Normally, he could leap several feet into the air without any problem, and even with Duan Yu by his side, jumping one foot high would be a piece of cake.

After sending Duan Yu away, he jumped back.

Mu Wanqing was looking at him quietly, her eyes seemingly filled with tenderness.

Gu Hanyuan felt that beauties who were beautiful to a certain degree were truly unbearable.

Being stared at like that makes you feel inexplicably guilty, even if you want to do something funny.

Mu Wanqing originally thought that Gu Hanyuan would keep his distance and grab her shoulder like Duan Yu would, but unexpectedly he put his arm around her waist.

Before I could even react, I was already being carried up to the roof.

Mu Wanqing glared at Gu Hanyuan, feeling both embarrassed and annoyed.

All I heard was him whisper in my ear, "Good bounce, keep training," before he landed again.

Mu Wanqing couldn't lash out in front of Duan Yu, so she could only glare at Gu Hanyuan again.

If you ignore the blush on her face, she does have a certain charm.

Gu Hanyuan gestured for the two to leave first.

The two did not object and secretly escaped from behind the secret room.

At this moment, Gu Hanyuan's divine sense indicated that Yun Zhonghe was chasing another person who had been located by his divine sense.

It was Gan Baobao, whom we just added last night.

Of course, this also applies to Qin Hongmian and Dao Baifeng.

It turns out that because Chung Ling went home early, and because of last night's drama, Gan Baobao became jealous.

She was also part of today's scheme, since success would mean defeating two rivals at the same time, so she came with Zhong Wanchou to guard the secret room.

However, he was spotted by Yun Zhonghe when he was about to leave.

Yun Zhonghe wouldn't normally cause trouble at this time and disrupt his boss Duan Yanqing's plans.

However, because Gu Hanyuan had cut off her finger before, and she accidentally discovered that the girl Zhong Ling who was snuggling with Gu Hanyuan was Gan Baobao's daughter.

Therefore, although Yun Zhonghe did not dare to attack Gu Hanyuan, he did not even dare to directly attack Zhong Ling.

But there are fewer concerns about targeting Gan Baobao; it would also be a way to avenge the severed finger.

Seeing that Gan Baobao was alone, he could no longer restrain himself and gave her aphrodisiac.

Although Gan Baobao was always on guard because of Yun Zhonghe's reputation, she never expected him to be so bold.

They actually chose to strike shortly after he left his husband, Zhong Wanchou.

Because she was traveling with Zhong Wanchou, her vigilance was inevitably lowered, and as a result, she fell for the trap.

Gan Baobao was chased by Yun Zhonghe so frantically that she fell to the ground.

She looked at Yun Zhonghe approaching in horror, but because she had been poisoned by the Hehuan Powder, she was completely powerless.

Yun Zhonghedang smiled and uttered his classic line.

"Ever since I saw Madam, I have been longing for her day and night. What virtue or ability does Zhong Wanchou possess to be so fortunate as to have such a beautiful wife! One day, I, Yun Zhonghe, will kill her husband and take her as my own, seize her wealth and occupy her valley. Today, I, Yun, will take her as my own first."

"Aren't you afraid of affecting your boss's plans?!"

Gan Baobao was helpless, since mentioning Zhong Wanchou or Duan Zhengchun was useless at this point. It was better to hope that Yun Zhonghe would take Duan Yanqing's plan into consideration.

"Haha, Madam is really naive. You're useless now that you've kidnapped Duan Yu and Mu Wanqing. That Zhong Wanchou even dares to boss us Four Evils around. Even if we're useless today, we'll kill him later."

Yun Zhonghe was in a good mood to explain to Gan Baobao that he liked to push people to the brink of defeat before taking them down.
