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

They also failed to discover the ambiguous relationship between Lin Shiyin and Gu Hanyuan.

One was her revered master, and the other was her closest mother.

She'll be happier the better the relationship between the two most important people in her life.

As for Long Xiaoyun...

Gu Hanyuan disliked him, and Lin Shiyin distanced herself from him.

Long Xiaoyun also harbors resentment because she was once disliked for being a girl and forced to pretend to be a boy.

He was even scolded when he first returned to Xingyun Manor.

For a moment, it seemed as if Long Xiaoyun had been expelled, and Gu Hanyuan was now the male master of Xingyun Manor.

Interestingly, Long Xiaoyun also took Gu Hanyuan's arrangement for him to monitor Li Xunhuan very seriously.

He was completely focused on Li Xunhuan.

She seemed completely unconcerned about Gu Hanyuan and Lin Shiyin spending so much time together.

It's impossible to know what he's really thinking.

As for Li Xunhuan, needless to say, his most important task now is to clear his name of the Plum Blossom Bandit.

However, the Plum Blossom Bandits were a criminal organization created by Lin Xian'er, Bai Xiaosheng, and Long Xiaoyun in collusion.

Li Xunhuan could only passively respond to the attacks.

One man, three women, and a half-grown loli returned to the courtyard.

Sun Xiaohong asked Gu Hanyuan about his past with great interest.

Gu Hanyuan, a firsthand witness, recounted the story in a slow, melodious tone.

All the women felt as if they were actually there.

Gu Hanyuan's reputation truly became widely known after the Southern Shaolin Conference.

Most of what happened before this time was only known within the Song state.

However, it is these experiences along the way that make it even more legendary.

. ....... 0

After all, Gu Hanyuan's growth was too fast, so fast that people hadn't even had time to react before he had already reached the pinnacle of the world.

These things intrigued not only Sun Xiaohong, but also Lin Shiyin and the other two girls.

Long Xiaoyun's admiration for Gu Hanyuan grew stronger, and the ruthlessness in her clear, beautiful eyes had long since vanished.

All she had was filial piety and things she didn't yet understand.

This is how a girl her age should be.

Taking advantage of their close master-disciple relationship, Long Xiaoyun indulged in snuggling in Gu Hanyuan's arms and acting coquettishly.

As for her previous request for Gu Hanyuan to guide her cultivation, that was temporarily forgotten.

However, Lin Xian'er and Sun Xiaohong both disregarded Long Xiaoyun.

After all, she's just a little girl, what's there to care about?

However, they were unaware that Gu Hanyuan possessed a divine skill called "Myriad Manifestations Yin-Yang Technique," which allowed him to change his physical form.

Although Lin Shiyin was not interested in matters of the martial arts world, she admired Gu Hanyuan's legendary experiences.

The embarrassment and anger of being taken advantage of earlier were also greatly reduced.

After all, the fact that someone like Gu Hanyuan coveted her speaks volumes about her charm.

Lin Shiyin could not avoid the vanity that is inherent in women.

Lin Xian'er was extremely restless.

After all, she had a dam burst once before, and now she felt very cold and uncomfortable.

I tried to listen to it while enduring the discomfort, but it only seemed to get worse.

Her gaze towards Gu Hanyuan was almost bursting with rage.

As a result, her eyes became even more alluring.

Unfortunately, she had no chance to use her little tricks because Long Xiaoyun was clinging to Gu Hanyuan's arms.

Chapter 689: I will take good care of Lin Shiyin, in every way.

It's getting late.

Gu Hanyuan stopped his storytelling when a servant came to inform Long Xiaoyun that a banquet had been prepared. The four women looked on with lingering interest.

Lin Shiyin and Lin Xian'er were in a hurry to take a bath and did not accompany her.

Long Xiaoyun looked slightly tired.

After all, too much had happened to her today.

Moreover, he had suffered severe injuries that had rendered him unable to fight, and now that he had calmed down, a wave of exhaustion washed over him.

Gu Hanyuan urged the reluctant Long Xiaoyun to go and rest.

He made a promise to her that he would get up early tomorrow to guide her in her cultivation, and that was how he sent her away.

Gu Hanyuan took Sun Xiaohong to the banquet.

At the banquet, everyone toasted and flattered each other.

Gu Hanyuan paid little attention to Long Xiaoyun, whose eyes were darting around.

He did exchange a few words with Li Xunhuan and A Fei, who were unexpectedly present.

Both of them thanked Gu Hanyuan for what happened during the day.

Seeing that Ah Fei was troubled by how to become famous.

A hint of amusement flashed in Gu Hanyuan's eyes.

He said leisurely:

“Ah Fei, becoming famous requires an opportunity. And such an opportunity is nothing more than challenging masters or experiencing major events. But all of this requires sufficient strength as a guarantee, otherwise your life will be in danger. The ‘Golden Silk Armor’ can only protect the chest and abdomen, but not the head and limbs. Now that the fact that you possess the ‘Golden Silk Armor’ has been exposed, others are on guard, and it will be difficult to use it. Moreover, you lack experience in the martial arts world, making you an easy target for assassination.”

Ah Fei said with distress:

"But my cultivation has now reached a bottleneck, and experience in the martial world cannot be gained in a short time."

Gu Hanyuan said with a half-smile:

"It's best to have someone guide you in accumulating experience in the martial arts world. The Plum Blossom Thief incident is currently making headlines, so you might as well get involved. With Li Tanhua leading the way, you can avoid some detours."

Upon hearing this, Li Xunhuan smiled happily and said:

"I happen to need help, and it would be great if Afei could come and help me."

"In that case, I'll have to trouble you, Brother Li."

Ah Fei seemed somewhat reluctant as he spoke.

Because of Gu Hanyuan's interference, Afei and Li Xunhuan's friendship has deteriorated significantly.

Li Xunhuan became the prime suspect in the Plum Blossom Bandits case, which also implicated A Fei.

Afei's level of trust in Li Xunhuan is much lower than in the original story.

His greatest wish was that Gu Hanyuan would take him to investigate the Plum Blossom Thief.

However, Gu Hanyuan had no interest in being Afei's nanny, and he also had his own plans regarding the Plum Blossom Thief incident.

Gu Hanyuan pondered for a moment and said:

"As for the bottleneck in martial arts, A-Fei, your fast sword is very powerful and has great potential. All you need is time and experience to accumulate. However, your internal energy cultivation is a bit lacking."

There was a pause.

He sighed softly and said:

"Fine, here you go."

As he spoke, he took out a secret manual from his pocket and handed it to A-Fei.

Afei took it in a daze.

"This is?"

Gu Hanyuan said with a meaningless tone:

"'Innate Sunflower Divine Skill'. Before becoming a Grandmaster, one's cultivation progresses extremely quickly, with almost no bottlenecks. With your accumulated experience, A-Fei, if you were to cultivate it, you should be able to break through to the Grandmaster level very soon. Moreover, the greatest characteristic of 'Innate Sunflower Divine Skill' is that it greatly enhances movement techniques and attack speed. Combined with your fast sword, you would be hard to beat below the Grandmaster level. It can be said to be the most suitable internal skill for you to cultivate."

Since Gu Hanyuan created the "Innate Sunflower Divine Skill", he has never allowed anyone to practice it.

The "Evil-Repelling Guards" can be transferred seamlessly; once they have accumulated enough merit, they can be demoted.

Of course, what Gu Hanyuan gave A Fei at this time was a mentally emasculated version of the "Innate Sunflower Divine Skill".

Otherwise, if A-Fei really castrated himself, wouldn't Bai Feifei fight him to the death?

On the contrary, it is the spiritual castration that is difficult for ordinary people to detect.
