Chapter 1265
Moreover, the fireworks last night had lit up almost half of Jin Ling City.
How could she not have seen them?
Upon seeing the two women, Wen Qingqing had subconsciously guessed that the fireworks last night were set off by Gu Hanyuan for them.
Her little jar of jealousy was completely overturned.
With tears in her beautiful eyes, she shouted, "I hate Brother Gu the most!" and then ran out of the Jin Long Gang, feeling deeply aggrieved.
Miss Jiao Wan'er said anxiously:
"Brother Gu, why don't you hurry and chase after Qingqing!"
However, Gu Hanyuan smiled faintly and said:
"No need to rush, let Qingqing calm down for a while."
He knew full well about Wen Qingqing's jealous nature.
But there was naturally a reason why he still chose to leave Wen Qingqing aside and prioritize winning over Ye Xiuzhu and the other woman.
Firstly, it was to let Wen Qingqing recognize reality;
otherwise, Wen Yi would inevitably be an insurmountable obstacle.
Secondly, it was to draw out a certain woman who was hiding very deeply.
While the plot would change due to the butterfly effect, it would also retain its inertia.
Since Yuan Chengzhi alone had failed to draw her out,
then adding Wen Qingqing to the mix would suffice.
In any case, Wen Qingqing had a spiritual sense tracker on her and could not escape his control.
Several days passed.
Gu Hanyuan looked lazily at Miss Jiao Wan'er as she entered the room to deliver news.
He saw her say indignantly:
"Brother Gu, Yuan Chengzhi has appeared. Many gang forces are chasing him; why are you still so leisurely?"
Gu Hanyuan smiled indifferently upon hearing this.
He moved the lotus-like arms draped over him and rose from the soft, fragrant embrace.
He said leisurely:
"Those good-for-nothings cannot catch Yuan Chengzhi."
After so many days, Miss Jiao Wan'er had become extremely docile.
While rolling her charming eyes in annoyance, she naturally cleaned up for him.
She said indistinctly:
"But Qingqing appeared in the Wudu Sect's ranks; I wonder if she was abducted?"
Gu Hanyuan's eyes flickered, and he smiled playfully:
"Could it not be that Qingqing's charm in men's clothing is limitless, and she hooked the Wudu Sect's female leader?"
Miss Jiao Wan'er was somewhat astonished upon hearing this.
She had also heard some rumors.
It was said that the Wudu Sect leader, He Tieshou, was acting intimately with a handsome young man.
She just hadn't been able to associate it with Wen Qingqing.
With a strange expression, she said:
"Although Qingqing's men's disguise is quite convincing, it shouldn't be able to fool her, right?"
Gu Hanyuan smiled subtly:
"The people of the Wudu Sect are from the Miao family; they act straightforwardly and have little concept of women dressing as men, so it is not strange that they were fooled by Qingqing. It's just that Qingqing has likely suffered quite a few grievances."
Miss Jiao Wan'er chided:
"Then Brother Gu, why don't you hurry and bring Qingqing back."
Gu Hanyuan smiled lightly and patted the hair on top of Miss Jiao Wan'er's head.
"Rest assured, I will bring her back soon. Wan'er, you should focus on doing your own work first."
These words naturally earned him a charming eye-roll from Miss Jiao Wan'er.
Afterwards, under Miss Jiao Wan'er's service, Gu Hanyuan dressed neatly and left the Jin Long Gang, feeling refreshed.
Gu Hanyuan traveled at high speed.
Soon, he arrived at a bustling bamboo forest.
Hundreds of people were surrounding Yuan Chengzhi, who was all alone.
Yuan Chengzhi's complexion was extremely ugly, looking as if his internal injuries had not yet healed.
Under Gu Hanyuan's interference,
how could Yuan Chengzhi be as carefree and unrestrained as in "The Sword of the Jade Heaven"?
In less than half a month, everything had gone wrong, and he was in a sorry state.
Especially recently, he had become a target for everyone because of the Jianwen Emperor's treasure, feeling physically and mentally exhausted.
Leading those hundreds of people were Sha Tianguang, the master of the Evil Tiger Gully, and Chu Hongliu, the master of the Thousand Willow Manor.
Both were bandits who made their living by robbing homes.
They were also the most concerned with the treasure in Yuan Chengzhi's hands.
Sha Tianguang said loudly:
"Young Hero Yuan, we won't make things difficult for you; as long as you hand over the Jianwen Emperor's treasure, we will let you leave safely, how about that?"
Yuan Chengzhi explained bitterly:
"I have already said it many times; the Jianwen Emperor's treasure is not in my hands. When I discovered the secret treasure chamber, it was already empty inside."
However, this pale and weak defense could not convince Sha Tianguang and Chu Hongliu.
Chu Hongliu said impatiently:
"Why talk reason with him? There are quite a few people watching him; let's just capture him first."
Sha Tianguang felt this made sense.
He was about to call his men to surround and attack Yuan Chengzhi.
Seeing that they were still going to fight, Yuan Chengzhi vigilantly drew the Jin Shejian and stood on guard.
Sha Tianguang was in a bit of a dilemma.
During the process of chasing Yuan Chengzhi these past few days, he had seen plenty of the Jin Shejian's power.
With the divine weapon in hand, Yuan Chengzhi was almost invincible.
If a real fight broke out, the losses among his men would definitely be significant.
But he was unwilling to let go of such a good opportunity now.
After all, not everyone who holds a divine weapon is called Gu Hanyuan.
Hundreds of people could wear Yuan Chengzhi down to death even if it took time.
Just as he hardened his heart to trade human lives for results,
an old man and a young girl appeared on fast horses.
Looking at the young girl on the horse, Yuan Chengzhi's expression was somewhat dazed.
He had never seen such a beautiful woman.
She was even a cut above Wen Qingqing, whom he had seen before.
The young girl was Zhu Meichuo.
And the old man beside her was Cheng Qingzhu, the master she had taken on while wandering the Jianghu.
Cheng Qingzhu laughed loudly:
"Greetings, fellow heroes. We of the Qingzhu Gang are taking this young brother away."
Chu Hongliu was furious:
"Cheng Qingzhu, do you want to eat alone?"
Cheng Qingzhu sighed:
977
"The Jianwen Emperor's treasure is not something you people can swallow; don't bring a great disaster upon yourselves."
He actually didn't want to wade into these muddy waters either.
But since Zhu Meichuo had made the request, he had no choice but to agree. ===== CHAPTER 1267 =====
