It wasn't until she saw Gu Hanyuan's amused smile that she seemed to be burned as she broke free from his embrace.

He Hongyao's pretty face was already flushed.

It felt like stepping back more than ten years, back to when I was a shy and bashful young girl just beginning to experience love.

She lowered her head and murmured:

"Young Master Gu, how could you..."

Gu Hanyuan said with a light laugh:

"This is just a thank you gift I deserve."

He Hongyao was at a loss for words.

After all, compared to the favor of restoring her appearance.

Such a thank-you gift is really nothing.

Moreover, the one who benefited was Gu Hanyuan, whom she had a good impression of.

I felt more shy than angry.

To defuse the awkward situation.

He Hongyao could only glare angrily at He Tieshou, who was watching the show.

Unfortunately, He Tieshou still had that same smiling face.

Clearly, her glare didn't have much of an effect.

Gu Hanyuan ignored the eye contact between the two women.

The objectives for this phase have been achieved.

There's no point in wasting any more time here.

He said to He Tieshou in a leisurely manner:

"Let's go, I'll take you to Chaoyang Peak."

He Tieshou was taken aback upon hearing this.

There was a faint sense of resistance in my heart.

After all, she had just had a close conversation with Gu Hanyuan.

Now we need to find Xia Xueyi's burial place, 990.

It's inevitable that you'll feel awkward.

However, she did not refuse.

Asked in a low voice:

"When to set off?"

She thought to herself that even if she were to go to Chaoyang Peak, she would have to prepare horses, dry food, and clothing.

Once everything is ready, her emotions should have calmed down.

However, Gu Hanyuan's words shattered her thoughts.

"Now."

"Now?"

He Hongyao looked puzzled.

Gu Hanyuan turned to He Tieshou and teased:

"If Miss He wishes to serve me in bed, remember to come find me tonight."

He Tieshou's eyes gleamed as he scolded:

"Who wants to serve you in bed?"

Clearly, the closer relationship between the two made her much more relaxed and natural in her speech.

Their voices were full of flirtatious banter.

As for what she was really thinking, only she knows.

Gu Hanyuan smiled nonchalantly.

He reached out and put his arm around He Hongyao's slender waist.

He Hongyao's delicate body trembled at first.

Immediately afterwards, he was shocked to be carried into the sky by Gu Hanyuan.

He stood on the emerald green Dragon Slayer Sword.

As Gu Hanyuan manipulated it, it soared straight into the sky.

He Hongyao was amazed by the wonder of "flying on a sword".

Looking down at the white clouds, mountains, rivers, towns, and figures that have turned into black dots, I see them passing by.

As she felt refreshed and relaxed, it was as if the shackles on her heart were being loosened.

At this time.

He Hongyao's expression faltered slightly, and her delicate body trembled gently.

Her jade-like face trembled as she spoke:

"Young Master Gu, you're standing there blocking my way."

Gu Hanyuan said jokingly:

"Miss He has a slender figure, so this is perfectly normal."

He Hongyao gasped in surprise, instinctively looking down and clutching her clothes tightly.

He pleaded, saying:

"Young Master Gu..."

Gu Hanyuan said with amusement:

"Since you brought Miss He here to find Xia Xueyi's remains, you should at least receive some reward."

He Hongyao was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

Hearing Xia Xueyi's name made her feel somewhat embarrassed.

However, she couldn't bring herself to refuse Gu Hanyuan.

Furthermore, he didn't seem to have any intention of pushing his luck.

He Hongyao had no choice but to silently let go and close her eyes.

Gu Hanyuan looked at He Hongyao, who seemed resigned to her fate, his eyes flashing with a dark light.

A subtle smile curved at the corners of his lips.

However, he had many things to do today and did not intend to spend too much time "flying on a sword".

With rapid flight, they soon arrived at Chaoyang Peak with He Hongyao.

Borrowing from the description in "The Sword Stained with Royal Blood".

Gu Hanyuan quickly found his destination.

He Hongyao nearly lost her balance when she landed.

Fortunately, Gu Hanyuan caught him in time.

She glared at Gu Hanyuan angrily, then silently straightened her clothes.

He sighed inwardly, feeling that all the good deals had been taken advantage of.

If Xia Xueyi were alive today, I wonder what she would think.

However, He Hongyao suddenly realized with bitterness that Xia Xueyi didn't love her at all.

Perhaps they don't care at all.

Gu Hanyuan was unaware of what He Hongyao was thinking at that moment.

Otherwise, they would definitely be thinking about it with a wicked sense of humor.

He took both Wen Yi and Wen Qingqing into his possession.

If Xia Xueyi were truly alive, she would definitely be determined to fight him to the death.

He Hongyao calmed herself down before she had time to take in her surroundings.

This is a platform standing on a cliff, with a bottomless abyss outside.

There is a small opening in the cliff face, which is the so-called Golden Snake Cave.

Xia Xueyi also perished here.

Such a treacherous location.

If it weren't for prior knowledge or someone like Gu Hanyuan who could fly freely.
