Chapter 1393

Shuang'er said intermittently:

"I was just guessing blindly. Does Young Master feel any discomfort?"

Gu Hanyuan sighed lightly and said:

"Not bad."

Having such a pretty and petite girl who strives to improve herself as a maidservant can indeed greatly alleviate psychological pressure.

Waiting for Shuang'er to complete her task.

Gu Hanyuan pulled her soft body into his arms to serve as a bolster.

Yet in his heart, he was thinking of the previous bolster, Wu Xingyun.

"I wonder how long it will be before Yun'er rushes over; she will likely have to suffer a bit."

Just as Gu Hanyuan had thought.

Wu Xingyun was currently rushing on her way with a face full of annoyance, using her lightness skill.

This silly little girl had naturally been in high spirits at the beginning, "flying on a sword."

However, she soon discovered that her spiritual energy simply could not afford the consumption of "flying on a sword."

Wu Xingyun's spiritual energy reserves were actually not low.

But if she used "flying on a sword" to travel.

Short distances were not a problem, but long distances were too wasteful.

Therefore, she had no choice but to land and use her lightness skill to travel.

Only in places blocked by mountains and rivers would she use "flying on a sword" to pass directly through.

She muttered from time to time:

"When I see Master, I must squeeze him well, otherwise my spiritual energy simply won't be enough."

This slightly improper self-talk, when combined with her peerless beauty, was very incongruous.

However, when she recalled the sweet smile she wore during that process in her memory, it made people feel as if she were a fairy who could topple cities and countries.

This was originally a beautiful picture like a fairy in the night sky.

Yet someone intruded, completely lacking in romantic sensibility.

Only a burst of arrogant laughter was heard:

"Haha, little girl, let me stop you after all!"

A sturdy man with hair and beard standing on end blocked Wu Xingyun's path.

Wu Xingyun asked with a solemn expression:

"Who are you? Why block my path?"

The man laughed wildly:

"Old man Yan Kuangtu. I sensed that you, a little girl, had broken through to the Earth Immortal Realm at such a young age, and seeing talent, I wanted to see what kind of prodigy had appeared in the world."

Wu Xingyun was startled upon hearing this.

Apparently, she had not expected the man before her to be the legendary Yan Kuangtu.

It is said that at the age of ten, he created his own unique arts; at thirteen, he was already a master; and by twenty, he was already famous in the Wu Lin.

Later, because he swallowed the "Yang Extreme Pill" of the "Infinite Immortal Elixir," he stepped into the Earth Immortal Realm.

The Wu Lin honors him as the world's number one strongman, the Wu Lin's number one eccentric, the Jianghu's number one wonder, and the world's number one madman.

Both black and white paths bowed to him; he traversed the world, commanded the seven seas, founded the Power Gang in Song Guo, and built branches along the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers.

Yan Kuangtu spent his life dominating the world, acting with pleasure and seeking revenge; although he was not an evil person, he acted recklessly and committed too many killings, eventually being betrayed by his own subordinates, leading to the mobilization of all the experts of the black and white paths.

On Mount Wuyi, sixteen major sects, including experts from the Wu Dangpai and Shaolin, as well as the "Seven Elders" of "King Zhu Da," and Li Chenzhou, the "Lord of the World" of the Power Gang, along with the "Four Great Protectors," besieged Yan Kuangtu.

Logically, Yan Kuangtu, as an Earth Immortal, should not have been defeated by the siege of these people.

But because Yan Kuangtu's personality was arrogant and he was unwilling to abide by the agreements between Earth Immortals, he disrupted the normal order of the Jianghu.

Therefore, when he was besieged by many experts, an Earth Immortal secretly took action, severely wounding him.

Afterward, Yan Kuangtu fled and had been missing for fifteen full years.

Unexpectedly, just as he re-emerged in the Jianghu, he encountered Wu Xingyun breaking through to the Earth Immortal Realm.

With his arrogant personality, how could he endure someone being more talented than him, breaking through to the Earth Immortal Realm at such a young age?

Wu Xingyun's expression gradually became strange.

Because, seriously speaking, her actual age was more than twenty years older than Yan Kuangtu's.

Now she was being called a little girl.

For a moment, she didn't know whether to be happy or angry.

Wu Xingyun did not know that in Yan Kuangtu's perception, her age was actually less than twenty years old.

This was naturally the credit of the "Ten Thousand Phenomena Yin-Yang Art."

The extension of her lifespan and the change in her life form had caused her age to lose its practical significance.

Unless her lifespan was near its end and her spiritual energy was completely lost.

Otherwise, she would always be in her peak state.

Wu Xingyun suppressed the strange thoughts in her heart.

She said in a cold voice:

"Now that you have seen, please make way."

Fierce light flashed in Yan Kuangtu's eyes as he said:

"Just looking, how is that enough? Let me, the old man, test how the little girl's martial arts are."

He did not wait for Wu Xingyun to reply, striking out with both palms, using a move called "Fire Transmission," and fierce Qi energy blasted toward the opponent.

After Wu Xingyun broke through to the Earth Immortal Realm, she actually wanted to test her current strength.

Therefore, she collided head-on with a move from the Cloud-Ranking Palm, "Tearing Heaven and Ranking Clouds."

The two Qi energies collided, and the surrounding ground was immediately devastated.

Trees snapped, and mud splashed everywhere.

Judging from the direction in which the Qi energy scattered.

Wu Xingyun was still a notch weaker.

After all, she had only just broken through to the Earth Immortal Realm.

While Yan Kuangtu had already stayed in the Earth Immortal Realm for decades.

There was a clear gap between the two people's realms.

A flash of killing intent shone in Yan Kuangtu's eyes as he rushed toward Wu Xingyun.

Seeing this, Wu Xingyun's gaze became even more solemn, and she no longer tried to collide head-on.

The "Three Absolutes" were unleashed together, and she fought Yan Kuangtu into a ball.

However, she still inevitably fell into a disadvantage.

Even after using the "Three-Point Divine Finger," she could not bridge the gap.

Wu Xingyun felt some regret in her heart.

If she had known, she would have opened the distance at the beginning and used the "Divine Sword Thunder-Controlling True Art" to blast Yan Kuangtu to death.

The "Divine Sword Thunder-Controlling True Art" requires charging, and it was too late to use it in close combat.

As for the "Green Lotus Sword Canon," Wu Xingyun had only cultivated it to the internal energy version; the spiritual energy version could not yet be used.

For a moment, Wu Xingyun could not find a way to break the situation.

At this moment, the sleeping Gu Hanyuan suddenly frowned deeply.

The moment he opened his eyes, cold, ghostly light flickered.

His figure flashed, and he arrived in the courtyard without alarming Shuang'er.

He gazed into the distance in the direction where Wu Xingyun was.

He said in a cold, indifferent, and temperatureless voice:

"Seeking death."
