"Thank you for your kindness, Young Master Gu, but I'm afraid Junior Sister Zhiruo will blame us for taking away her Brother Gu."
Her sweet smile carried a hint of aloofness.
Clearly, Shi Xiuyun did not have a high initial impression of Gu Hanyuan.
Gu Hanyuan was almost exactly the type of person Ye Xiuzhu admired.
Therefore, it was given away for free very quickly.
However, Shi Xiuyun didn't feel much of anything.
She also thought Gu Hanyuan was very handsome and outstanding.
But it lacked that one element that would make her heart flutter.
In her eyes.
Gu Hanyuan's brilliance is too dazzling.
You can easily get burned by it if you're not careful.
Shi Xiuyun was like a fawn that had just emerged from the forest.
Sensing the danger from the outside world, they timidly withdrew their steps.
Silently, I stood watching the back of my companion as he ran.
Ye Xiuzhu's expression turned somewhat awkward upon hearing this.
The admonition in Shi Xiuyun's words was very clear.
She was speechless for a moment.
There are some things you can think about, but you can't say.
Fortunately, Gu Hanyuan spoke up in time to ease her embarrassment.
"The Wudang and Emei sects have a very good personal relationship. You are of the same generation as me, so it's only right that you address me as 'senior brother,' isn't it?"
973 Shi Xiuyun breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
She didn't want to appear too close, but she was also worried about offending Gu Hanyuan.
At this moment, he kindly took a step back.
Besides, what he said was reasonable and logical.
Shi Xiuyun no longer resisted.
He said in a gentle voice:
"Xiuyun greets Senior Brother Gu."
Gu Hanyuan smiled with satisfaction upon hearing this:
"Please wait a moment, my two junior sisters, while I deal with the matter at hand."
The two women nodded in agreement.
Gu Hanyuan then turned to the anxious Min Zihua.
But at the moment he turned around...
A glint of light flashed in his eyes.
Shi Xiuyun's reaction was somewhat unexpected.
But the more unique she is, the more so.
Gu Hanyuan wanted her even more.
A playful smile flashed across his lips.
When she looked at Min Zihua, she quickly put on a cold expression.
He said calmly:
"Jiao Gongli is hereby guaranteed. Min Zihua, do you have any objections? Or would you like to challenge me using your Xiandu Sect's 'Two Elements Sword Technique'?"
Many combined sword techniques involving Yin and Yang in this world are called "Two Elements Sword Techniques".
Some are strong, some are weak.
Those who are strong enough can challenge those of higher levels.
The weakness is merely superficial.
The "Two Elements Sword Technique" of the Xiandu Sect is considered one of the weaker ones.
Yuan Chengzhi could easily outwit them.
If Min Zihua were to use the "Two Elements Sword Technique" in front of Gu Hanyuan, it would be like showing off his skills before an expert.
Not to mention that Gu Hanyuan's current swordsmanship is far superior.
The mere fact that Gu Hanyuan was a disciple of the Wudang Sect made him dare not overestimate his abilities.
Therefore, Min Zihua, filled with fear and covered in cold sweat, said:
"I wouldn't dare. Since Young Master Gu is willing to vouch for Jiao Gongli, how could I dare to have any objections?"
There's definitely still some resentment.
After all, he put in so much effort, only to get such an inconclusive result.
Not only did they fail to avenge their grievances, they also lost face.
However, he dared not show it at all.
He appeared respectful and submissive, as if all hatred had been wiped away.
A satisfied smile curved Gu Hanyuan's lips.
He chuckled lightly:
“I know you’re not convinced. Go back and take a look at the house in the alley south of Jinling City, and you’ll understand everything.”
First the military, then the courtesy.
The power and influence have been displayed sufficiently.
There's no need to portray yourself as unreasonable anymore.
Min Zihua was stunned upon hearing this.
There was both confusion and panic.
Panic has two aspects.
Although Gu Hanyuan did not fully explain.
However, Min Zihua kept a concubine he had recently taken in at his residence in the south of the city.
At his advanced age, taking a concubine is bound to invite ridicule.
Now Gu Hanyuan has found out.
Suddenly, I felt like I had been caught red-handed.
Secondly, Min Zihua suddenly had a bad feeling.
Gu Hanyuan wouldn't ask him to go there for no reason.
Min Zihua instinctively felt that this was not a good thing.
In fact, this concubine was given to Min Zihua by Taibai Shuangying.
As a bargaining chip to win him over.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so easily persuaded to summon his relatives and friends to seek revenge against Jiao Gongli.
Gu Hanyuan captured the Taibai Twins there last night.
It was obviously not a harmonious scene.
The two heroes of Taibai hid many secret letters between them and the Qing Dynasty there.
There are also plans targeting the Golden Dragon Gang.
Therefore, Min Zihua will definitely be convinced after visiting the place.
They would even owe Gu Hanyuan a huge favor.
Not only did she tell him the truth, but she also didn't publicize such a shameful thing.
Min Zihua will definitely listen to Gu Hanyuan's every word from now on.
Although the Xiandu Sect is not very powerful, it has a wide circle of friends.
It has considerable influence in the Sanjiang area.
Gu Hanyuan naturally wouldn't let it go.
Gu Hanyuan ignored Min Zihua's inner thoughts at this moment.
He then looked at Jiao Wan'er, who showed both joy and hesitation.
He smiled warmly:
