Chapter 1260

The two women chatted about something in private.

When Gu Hanyuan saw them again, they had become intimate best friends holding hands.

Gu Hanyuan didn't investigate this.

At this time, a rumor spread in Jin Ling City:

Yuan Chengzhi had obtained the treasure of the Jianwen Emperor from Dagongfang.

Many people moved upon hearing the news and found the stone tablet of the Duke of Wei's mansion at Dagongfang,

and also found the treasure chamber that had long been emptied.

Coupled with Yuan Chengzhi obtaining the inheritance of the Golden Snake Langjun,

and the treasure map in his hand being related to the Jianwen Emperor's treasure,

the authenticity of the rumor that Yuan Chengzhi had obtained the Jianwen Emperor's treasure increased suddenly.

Many Jianghu people were frantically searching for Yuan Chengzhi's whereabouts.

The Huashan Sword Sect members had already evacuated after waking up.

They didn't dare to spread the news about encountering Wutian everywhere, for fear of provoking Wutian again.

Yuan Chengzhi was unwilling to have a tiger-headed and snake-tailed start to his Jianghu career, so he returned to Jin Ling City.

As a result, he soon heard this rumor.

Yuan Chengzhi was currently injured, so he didn't dare to show his face after learning of the rumor.

He had indeed been to Dagongfang the night before last and had entered the treasure chamber,

but it had already been emptied and someone had beaten him to it.

It just so happened that his tracks had been witnessed at the time, and for a while, he couldn't explain himself.

At this time, without the Huashan Sword Sect to support him, and being alone and helpless, Yuan Chengzhi didn't dare to appear at all.

The source of the rumor was naturally "Earth Net."

Yuan Chengzhi was the best bait, and Gu Hanyuan wouldn't let him go.

While the rumor was spreading more and more intensely,

Gu Hanyuan wasn't in a hurry to catch Yuan Chengzhi.

He stayed calmly at the Golden Dragon Gang, enjoying romance with the women.

Wen Qingqing, who was anxious to get what she wanted, was left aside by Gu Hanyuan for the time being.

These past few days, he had focused more of his attention on Ye Xiuzhu and Shi Xiuyun.

Originally, with Shi Xiuyun's alienation from Gu Hanyuan, it was difficult for the two to have a chance to get along.

But she was worried about Ye Xiuzhu, so she had no choice but to follow.

This night,

Ye Xiuzhu asked Shi Xiuyun beside her curiously:

"Junior sister, you say Brother Gu is looking for us so late and says he wants to give us a gift, what could it be?"

Shi Xiuyun said angrily upon hearing this:

"Anyway, no matter what it is, you will be happy, right?"

Ye Xiuzhu said shyly upon hearing this:

"I'm not as easy to satisfy as you say."

Shi Xiuyun said strangely:

"Senior sister, you still have the nerve to say that? If I hadn't followed, wouldn't you have climbed onto Young Master Gu's bed long ago?"

Although Gu Hanyuan said Shi Xiuyun could call him senior brother,

most of the time Shi Xiuyun still called him Young Master Gu,

which also reflected her alienation from Gu Hanyuan.

Especially as the time spent together increased, this alienation became more obvious.

Because no matter how much Shi Xiuyun resisted,

she had to admit Gu Hanyuan's charm,

especially that handsome, immortal-like appearance; watching it for a long time indeed affected physical and mental health.

Even Shi Xiuyun had accidentally stared at him in a daze.

Therefore, Shi Xiuyun could only deliberately alienate Gu Hanyuan, for fear that she wouldn't be able to resist his charm one day.

Ye Xiuzhu was flushed red by what was said, but she couldn't say anything to refute.

These past few days, she had communicated a lot with Miss Jiao Wan'er and heard many secrets from her.

Originally, Ye Xiuzhu also had a lot of hostility toward Miss Jiao Wan'er, who had beaten her to it.

But when Miss Jiao Wan'er took the initiative to show kindness,

her hostility was soon dissolved by her gentleness.

With Miss Jiao Wan'er's personal experience, Ye Xiuzhu naturally looked forward to that kind of thing.

Therefore, when Shi Xiuyun brought it up, she didn't even have the courage to refute.

Seeing this, Shi Xiuyun rolled her eyes and sighed repeatedly.

However, she was also somewhat distracted.

She could feel Gu Hanyuan's favor for her,

and compared to Ye Xiuzhu, it seemed he was more interested in her.

This made her feel proud while being troubled.

A figure like Gu Hanyuan left Ye Xiuzhu, who threw herself at him, alone, and instead expressed pursuit of her.

A woman's vanity is clearly not so easy to overcome.

Shi Xiuyun sighed gloomily.

She had the intention to leave early,

but Zhang Yingfeng did not agree.

He used the Jianwen Emperor's treasure as an excuse, thinking they should stay to find Yuan Chengzhi.

These past few days, he had also been very active in searching for Yuan Chengzhi's whereabouts.

However, Zhang Yingfeng's thoughts did not escape Shi Xiuyun.

How could the Emei Sect plot against the Jianwen Emperor's treasure now?

With a pile of hidden dangers inside not yet resolved, how could they plot against the Jianwen Emperor's treasure and become a target of public criticism?

It was just to match them with Gu Hanyuan.

Thinking of this,

Shi Xiuyun was even more dissatisfied with Zhang Yingfeng.

She didn't know Zhang Yingfeng's thoughts in his heart.

Zhang Yingfeng had always been very worried about Dugu Yihe,

always feeling that Dugu Yihe was hiding some kind of crisis.

Therefore, Zhang Yingfeng wanted to bring strong reinforcements for Emei.

Things that could make Dugu Yihe worry like that were clearly not small matters,

and might even endanger Dugu Yihe's life.

A single Ye Xiuzhu didn't seem heavy enough in his view,

so he thought of matching Shi Xiuyun as well.

If Ma Xiuzhen and Sun Xiuqing were not here,

Zhang Yingfeng would have wished for all four women to go on stage.

After all, compared to the "Four Beauties" of the female disciples,

Dugu Yihe was more significant to them, the male disciples.

Without Dugu Yihe's support, it wouldn't be strange if they were kicked out of the Emei Sect by Abbess Miejue at any time.

Now that there was an opportunity to bring strong reinforcements for the Emei Sect,

the price paid was just the happiness of a few junior sisters.

In Zhang Yingfeng's view, it was a very worthwhile thing.

What's more, with Gu Hanyuan as the object, it might not necessarily be sacrificing happiness. ===== CHAPTER 1262 =====
