Chapter 1108

Gu Hanyuan only gave a faint glance,

pulled Zhen Sushan into his arms,

and casually discarded Tan Yingshou's head.

In reality, he did not care much about Tan Yingshou's life or death.

It was actually quite surprising that Zhen Sushan had managed to kill him.

He asked gently:

"My lady, it has only been a few days, why have you become so distant?"

Zhen Sushan's delicate body stiffened,

but the familiar scent from his nose made her soften involuntarily.

She said with a somewhat complex expression:

"After all, Young Master Gu has already obtained Xixia..."

Although Zhen Sushan did not finish her sentence,

Gu Hanyuan had already understood.

Zhen Sushan felt that Gu Hanyuan, who now possessed Xixia, had a higher status,

and her value to Gu Hanyuan might not be as great as it was initially.

Even though the two had already agreed to cooperate,

and she believed that Gu Hanyuan liked her,

for the sake of her clansmen's future,

Zhen Sushan did not dare to be the least bit negligent.

Moreover, she had heard some rumors on the way here:

the Earth Immortal who repelled the Mongol Yuan,

summoning divine thunder from the sky,

unleashing Green Lotus Sword Qi,

and killing a thousand people with a single sword strike.

Such deeds, which sounded like myths, all demonstrated Gu Hanyuan's might.

It was inevitable that Zhen Sushan would have doubts.

Gu Hanyuan chuckled:

"My lady, do you think I would go back on my word?"

Zhen Sushan's delicate body trembled.

Her treasure had already fallen into Gu Hanyuan's palm,

and the familiar process actually made her feel much more at ease.

She said with affection in her beautiful eyes:

"I'm sorry, I was overthinking."

Gu Hanyuan teased:

"A verbal apology is not enough; my lady, you don't need me to teach you again, do you?"

Zhen Sushan rolled her eyes charmingly at his words,

but still slid obediently from Gu Hanyuan's arms.

Gu Hanyuan played with the golden hair in his hand,

his expression playful.

I don't know how much time passed.

Gu Hanyuan looked with satisfaction at Zhen Sushan, whose pretty face was flushed.

Now, there was no need for him to remind her again;

Zhen Sushan would not cough easily.

Embracing the warm and fragrant Zhen Sushan once more,

Gu Hanyuan chuckled:

"Tell me, how did you get delayed for so long?"

Seeing Gu Hanyuan bring up business,

Zhen Sushan barely suppressed the palpitation in her heart

and said slowly:

"This Tan Yingshou is indeed treacherous and cunning. At the time, he didn't flee to the imperial palace, nor did he flee to the Mongol Yuan. Instead, he fled towards the most unlikely direction: the Ming Guo."

Gu Hanyuan was not surprised by this.

His hands were familiar with the routine,

but he said with a serious expression:

"Was Tan Yingshou caught at the Baotian Lanyue Tower?"

Zhen Sushan was greatly shocked,

to the point that she didn't even care about the strangeness of her body,

and asked in surprise:

"How did you know?"

Gu Hanyuan smiled faintly:

"Yan Feifei of the Lanyue Tower is his mistress; what's strange about him fleeing to the Baotian Lanyue Tower?"

When he heard that Tan Yingshou had fled towards the Ming Guo,

Gu Hanyuan subconsciously thought of the Baotian Lanyue Tower.

The Baotian Lanyue Tower was the most prestigious restaurant in Yuezhou Prefecture of the Ming Guo,

with many high-ranking officials and nobles frequenting it.

And the Ming Guo was the birthplace of the "Net."

It might still be a bit of a stretch to say it was omnipresent,

but the vast majority of intelligence gathering was effortless.

As for the relationship between Tan Yingshou and Yan Feifei, it was naturally learned from "Gods and Devils of the World."

However, what was surprising was

that Zhen Sushan suddenly said with a strange expression:

"I didn't expect there to be times when Young Master Gu would be wrong."

Gu Hanyuan frowned slightly,

and his hands couldn't help but exert a bit of force,

drawing a soft cry from Zhen Sushan.

He didn't pay attention to Zhen Sushan's reproachful words,

but instead asked suspiciously:

"Where did the mistake happen?"

Zhen Sushan gave Gu Hanyuan a shy and angry look,

clearly somewhat dissatisfied with him,

but still explained in a charming voice:

"The Baotian Lanyue Tower is Yan Feifei's territory. Tan Yingshou did indeed pursue her, but later, because he went to the Mongol Yuan, the two hadn't been in contact for a long time. However, they had always maintained a cooperative relationship, so he wanted to hide in the Baotian Lanyue Tower."

She said somewhat proudly:

"If Tan Yingshou had kept running, I wouldn't have been able to do anything about him, but if he wanted to hide, he couldn't escape my tracking methods."

Zhen Sushan's tracking methods were indeed peerless;

once targeted by her, it was very difficult to escape.

Tan Yingshou was also very unlucky.

In order to show her capabilities in front of Gu Hanyuan,

Zhen Sushan pursued him relentlessly,

and he eventually lost his life at the Baotian Lanyue Tower.

Gu Hanyuan's expression was deep.
