Chapter 1495: Oubai is dead. Kangxi, you are next
Yuan Chengzhi's complexion turned ashen.
He had witnessed Gu Hanyuan's divine arts and knew very well the gap in strength between the two.
If Gu Hanyuan wanted to take his life, he had no power to resist at all.
Yuan Chengzhi said with a fearful and bitter expression:
"I also have unspeakable difficulties, I hope Young Master Gu will understand."
Gu Hanyuan said indifferently:
"Yuan Chengzhi, Gu has no interest in knowing your difficulties. Gu has no relationship with the Huashan Sword Sect, but I am close friends with Heroine Ning of the Huashan Qi Sect. Since the Huashan Sect has produced a running dog of a foreign race like you, I suppose they wouldn't mind Gu helping to clean up the portal. Governor Yuan was a hero for his entire life; it is one thing that you did not inherit his last wish, but you even defected to the Qing Guo that Governor Yuan fought against his entire life. Even for the sake of Governor Yuan's lifelong reputation, Gu cannot spare you."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Chengzhi's heart turned to ash.
He finally realized that it was not just his own death, but he would also implicate the reputation of the Huashan Sect and his father, Yuan Chonghuan.
What caused this situation was precisely his wavering, hesitant, and indecisive personality.
Yuan Chengzhi both wanted to inherit Yuan Chonghuan's last wish to resist the Qing, was convinced by Kangxi's great talent and bold vision, and was also seduced by the beauty of Princess Jianning.
For a moment, he felt disheartened and gave up resistance with a bitter smile.
"My death is not worth regretting; I only ask Young Master Gu to consider the sake of my father and the Huashan Sect and not to publicize this matter. I am willing to be at Young Master Gu's disposal."
However, this state of Yuan Chengzhi waiting for death with his eyes closed was not what Gu Hanyuan wanted.
After all, having the courage to face life and death is one of the characteristics of a protagonist.
Without stripping his protagonist halo clean, there is no guarantee that some accident will not happen.
Therefore, Gu Hanyuan said indifferently:
"Keep your head on your neck for a moment; Gu has more important things to complete first."
Yuan Chengzhi's heart shook upon hearing this.
Looking at Gu Hanyuan, who walked past him, his heart fluctuated.
Death is the only difficulty through the ages.
He had finally overcome his fear of death to exchange for the reputation of Yuan Chonghuan and the Huashan Sect not being damaged.
At this moment, he was suddenly spared by Gu Hanyuan.
Even if it was only for a moment, it shook his determination to die.
The breath in Yuan Chengzhi's heart loosened, and for a moment, he did not want to die just like that.
After all, he was still young, his Wu Gong was strong among his peers, and he hadn't married the princess yet; he still had many regrets that hadn't been fulfilled, and his beautiful life had just begun.
Thinking this, Yuan Chengzhi wanted to live even more, and his eyes flickered.
Kangxi's heart also shook at this time, but he was much calmer than Yuan Chengzhi. ===== CHAPTER 1497 =====
