Chapter 1174
Everyone's expression changed suddenly,
clearly shocked by Gu Hanyuan's "Dragon-Capturing Skill."
When had they ever seen such miraculous martial arts?
Even Lv Qi, who had been quite arrogant before, became cautious.
The Five Elders of the Wen family were full of wariness in their eyes;
hearing about it and seeing it with one's own eyes were ultimately different.
Wen Fangda's eyes, however, were flashing with light,
clearly having some ideas.
Gu Hanyuan's appearance made the field silent for a time.
Only Yuan Chengzhi, a newborn calf not afraid of a tiger,
said in a deep voice:
"Brother, this batch of gold is of great importance. Please return the gold bars to me."
Gu Hanyuan played with the gold bar in his hand,
and said with a smile that was not a smile:
"Anyway, you can't guard it, so why not tell us what this 'great importance' is? Maybe someone will be willing to help, who knows?"
Gu Hanyuan was indeed very interested in the reason why Yuan Chengzhi and the others were transporting the gold.
Although An Xiaohui and Cui Ximin lacked strength,
they represented the Sword Sect of the Huashan Sect.
Nowadays, there was no need for them to escort military pay for the Chuang Wang army.
So this batch of gold was intriguing.
Yuan Chengzhi's face sank.
However, before he could continue to persuade,
the rather impatient Cui Ximin could no longer hold back.
He scolded angrily:
"That sounds nice! You bandits, hurry up and return the gold to us! Otherwise, the Sword Sect of the Huashan Sect will definitely not let you off!"
This batch of gold was lost from Cui Ximin's hands,
so he was the most anxious.
In fact, there was a more important reason why he suddenly scolded Gu Hanyuan.
That was because ever since Gu Hanyuan appeared,
An Xiaohui had been staring at him.
The jealousy in his heart made him subconsciously ignore the martial arts Gu Hanyuan had displayed.
As for the consequences,
how could Cui Ximin, who had straw in his brain, have ever considered them?
Perhaps he felt that the prestige of the Sword Sect of the Huashan Sect was great enough
to force Gu Hanyuan to give up.
One can only say he is worthy of being a frog at the bottom of a well.
In fact, An Xiaohui was not a member of any "appearance association,"
otherwise she couldn't have taken a fancy to Cui Ximin.
As for looking at Gu Hanyuan a few more times, it was also normal.
Just like seeing a beautiful woman on the road,
even if a man has no ideas,
he will inevitably look a few more times.
After all, good appearance
will always make people feel pleasing to the eye.
Not to mention Gu Hanyuan's level of attractiveness.
Gu Hanyuan's eyes were slightly cold.
A fool like Cui Ximin naturally posed no threat,
and there was no need to spend more effort on him.
But this kind of self-unaware idiot was like a toad landing on one's foot;
it doesn't bite, but it's disgusting.
He was just about to teach him a lesson,
when Wen Qingqing, who had recovered beside him, was not happy.
Her apricot eyes were wide, her willow eyebrows were raised,
and she said with a face full of anger:
"You were incompetent and lost the gold, yet you blame others for snatching it? You dare to accept a mission without ability; you are overestimating yourself!"
Cui Ximin had originally been somewhat amazed by Wen Qingqing's beauty,
but she scolded him as soon as she came up,
and he was suddenly a bit dazed.
Gu Hanyuan also looked at Wen Qingqing in surprise,
feeling a bit strange in his heart.
It must be said,
having a beautiful girl help scold people regardless of her image is indeed pleasant.
The look he gave Wen Qingqing also softened a bit.
Well, I'll be gentler when I use Wen Yi to provoke Wen Qingqing in the future.
The people on the field also had different expressions.
The Five Elders of the Wen family looked at each other,
all showing satisfied smiles.
Clearly, they were very satisfied with the progress between Wen Qingqing and Gu Hanyuan.
This would make it easier for them to take action later.
As for what Wen Qingqing would think then, it was not within their consideration.
As if by fate,
when Yuan Chengzhi saw the pretty and charming Wen Qingqing,
he couldn't help but be stunned.
Even though Wen Qingqing scolded Cui Ximin,
Yuan Chengzhi's favorability towards her remained extremely high.
He marveled in his heart:
"This woman is actually this beautiful."
But immediately after, he frowned,
because from any angle,
one could discover the intimacy between Wen Qingqing and Gu Hanyuan.
Especially recalling the details that had been ignored before,
although Wen Qingqing was looking down at the time,
one could still see some clues.
Some bad guesses surged in his heart.
Yuan Chengzhi's face suddenly became unpleasant.
Yuan Chengzhi's change in expression naturally could not escape Gu Hanyuan's eyes.
As expected, will the female lead still attract the male lead?
It's just that Wen Qingqing had already been taken by Gu Hanyuan.
Speaking of which, Yuan Chengzhi's luck with women is also quite good.
