Gu Long: Dominating the Martial Arts World Starting from Transmigrating as A Fei

The middle-aged man in brocade robes who rushed out of Xingyun Manor was none other than the manor lord, Long Xiaoyun.

He is not only Li Xunhuan's savior, but also Lin Shiyin's current husband.

He was truly startled after hearing Lin Mazi's report.

At first, he didn't believe that Li Xunhuan would do something like sending a funeral scroll.

But everything can be tricky if you think about it too much.

Over the years of being married to Lin Shiyin, he noticed that Lin Shiyin would often space out.

I especially love to sit in the plum grove in the backyard and sigh while looking at the plum blossoms.

Long Xiaoyun knew that it was the place Lin Shiyin and Li Xunhuan liked to stay in when they were together.

How did they play when they were young?

What sweet words did they exchange when they made their vows of eternal love?

Whenever Long Xiaoyun had similar questions, he couldn't help but imagine Lin Shiyin and Li Xunhuan nestled together under the plum blossoms.

This scene annoyed him greatly, and he considered leveling the plum blossom grove several times.

But that was Lin Shiyin's favorite place.

He loved Lin Shiyin too much, so he couldn't do that.

Long Xiaoyun was unaware that Li Xunhuan had become a thorn in his side.

Although he always told everyone he met that Li Xunhuan was his best brother.

Every time I bring it up, it stings my heart.

He believed that it was out of guilt towards Li Xunhuan and heartache for his good brother.

But subconsciously, he increasingly didn't want Li Xunhuan to appear.

He was unaware that he was growing increasingly terrified of Li Xunhuan's return.

He fears that everything he has now will be taken away.

He was no longer the same person who dared to challenge Bu Ba, the leader of the "Three Fiends Beyond the Pass," with just a silver spear, or Long Xiaoyun who was fearless in saving Li Xunhuan.

So when he heard the housekeeper's report today, his heart skipped a beat.

Although he had some doubts, these very thoughts amplified the thorn in his heart.

Lin Mazi was unaware that Li Xunhuan was at the door, so he did not report it.

Therefore, when Long Xiaoyun saw Li Xunhuan, he was completely unprepared.

In an instant, his hands and feet turned ice cold.

But immediately, his face changed to one of excitement.

He looked around and saw that everyone at the door was a member of the martial arts world.

He had no choice but to suppress his doubts and worries and run over to greet Li Xunhuan.

"My brother is really back!"

As soon as he uttered those words, Long Xiaoyun's eyes were already brimming with tears.

Li Xunhuan was no different.

"Big brother!"

He only managed to call out once before Li Xunhuan's voice choked with emotion, and he was unable to speak.

The two hugged each other tightly, as close as brothers.

All that could be heard was Long Xiaoyun muttering to himself:

"Brother, I've missed you so much, I've missed you so much."

I don't know how many times he repeated those words.

Tie Chuanjia looked at them, tears welling up in his eyes. He was simply happy for Li Xunhuan.

Lin Mazi, who followed behind, was stunned with shock.

He never expected that the person he had just stopped was none other than the famous Li Xunhuan.

That is, the former owner of Xingyun Manor.

As Afei watched this scene unfold, the system popped up again.

[Long Xiaoyun detected; spear technique detected: "Seven Transformations of the Coiled Dragon"; analysis to begin.]

This is probably the same spear technique that Long Xiaoyun used to save the seriously injured Li Xunhuan back then.

Looking at the scene again, one can only feel that Long Xiaoyun is indeed a man of great cunning.

Just now, I was facing the gate of Xingyun Manor and saw Long Xiaoyun coming out immediately.

The man's expression at that moment was more like that of someone seeking revenge than someone who was excited.

In the blink of an eye, her eyes were filled with tears.

The key point is that he seems to have forgotten that he was holding the elegiac couplet in his hand when he came out, and he still holds it in his hand now.

Long Xiaoyun suddenly laughed loudly again:

"Brother, your return should be a joyous occasion. How can you be crying like a woman?"

As he spoke, he pulled Li Xunhuan by the hand and walked into the manor.

"Come on, we have so many distinguished guests here today, I want everyone to get to know my brother!"

At this moment, Li Xunhuan also saw the elegy in his hand and stopped in his tracks.

"Big brother, what is this...?"

Only then did Long Xiaoyun notice the elegy in his hand.

But it's too late to hide it now.

He remained expressionless and laughed heartily:

"This must be the work of some petty person, trying to sow discord between us brothers. How can we let such a thing ruin our friendship?"

As he spoke, he tore the funeral banner to shreds and tossed it away casually.

Then he asked Lin Mazi:

Who delivered the funeral banner?

Lin Mazi was startled by what he heard; he had not yet recovered from his fear.

He feared that trouble was about to befall him simply because he had offended Li Xunhuan.

So when he heard Long Xiaoyun ask the question, he quickly replied:

"It was this peasant who brought the memorial. I could tell he was no good the moment I saw him."

Lin Mazi pointed at Bai Kaixin.

He wanted to cover up the fact that he had just provoked Li Xunhuan, so he started cursing first.

He didn't know what his master was thinking, but he would try to please whoever his master showed a good relationship with.

He was able to get the position of butler not simply because of his daughter's connections.

Long Xiaoyun shifted his gaze to Bai Kaixin and immediately realized that the man had been acupunctured.

He walked over and released the pressure points.

Now here are him, Li Xunhuan, and many other heroes.

If this man were to run away, he only needed to give a shout, and these江湖人 (jianghu people) who came to curry favor with him would surely take him down.

Therefore, he was not worried that Bai Kaixin would run away after the acupoints were released.

As soon as the acupoints were released, Bai Kaixin rushed to Long Xiaoyun's knees with a "whoosh".

He kowtowed repeatedly, pleading for mercy in a trembling voice:

"Master Long, Elder Long, I'm just a messenger, I don't know anything!"

No one noticed that Bai Kaixin's eyes were darting around as he came up with what he thought was a brilliant idea.

Although she had been acupunctured, Bai Kaixin had seen everything that had just happened.

With his cunning nature, he could naturally see the relationship between Li Xunhuan and Long Xiaoyun.

The relationship between the two was not as close as it appeared on the surface; instead, it was always filled with polite formalities.

Unbeknownst to him, Long Xiaoyun was deliberately distancing himself from Li Xunhuan.

But if he continues to pin the blame on Li Xunhuan, Long Xiaoyun will definitely not agree.

Because there are many heroes here, Long Xiaoyun still has to outwardly protect his "brother".

In addition, with titles such as "Little Li the Scholar" and "Master of Xingyun Manor," a person with such fame enjoys high prestige.

If the accusations continue, someone will inevitably stand up to defend them.

Therefore, continuing to make false accusations has very limited effect.

But the kid who was chasing him earlier was different.

He's clearly a newbie just starting out in the world, and his experience in dealing with people is bound to be lacking.

Moreover, nobody recognized him, and he had no reputation in the underworld.

Judging from how he acted just now, Li Xunhuan was taking good care of this kid.

Li Xunhuan will definitely do his best to protect this kid if he gets stigmatized.

This could actually exacerbate the conflict between Li Xunhuan and Long Xiaoyun.

If he could cause two renowned figures in the martial arts world to break ties or fight to the death, he would do it even if it meant his own demise.

Now we just have to wait for Long Xiaoyun to ask his question.

Sure enough, Long Xiaoyun's face darkened as he looked at him, his voice becoming deep and resonant as he asked:

"Did you send the memorial letter?"

Bai Kaixin said in a trembling voice:

"Yes, he is indeed a despicable person."

Long Xiaoyun narrowed his eyes, frowned, and his face darkened. He then said:

"You impersonated my brother and sent this funeral scroll; what are your intentions!"

Bai Kaixin cried and screamed, as if she had a thousand grievances, with tears and snot streaming down her face.

He cried out:

"I'm innocent, Uncle Long! It's true I delivered this elegy, but someone else instructed me to do it!"

"I'm just a gofer, I don't know anything else!"

He crawled forward while crying, trying to hug Long Xiaoyun's leg.

Long Xiaoyun took a step back in disgust and asked again:

"Since you say you were instructed by someone, then tell me who instructed you, and I will let you go."

He had made up his mind that if this peasant revealed that Li Xunhuan was the mastermind behind it all, he would kill him with a single blow.

He then explained to the crowd that he already knew the man was slandering someone.

Furthermore, he trusted his brothers implicitly, so this person must be using a divisive tactic.

In this way, he not only gained a reputation for being discerning and insightful, but also let people in the martial arts world know that he was a person who valued loyalty and could distinguish right from wrong.

Bai Kaixin wiped the snot and tears from his face, turned around and pointed at A Fei.

"It was him! He's the one who asked me to deliver the funeral scroll!"
