Chapter 1668: Long Xiaoyun looking at Lin Shiyin with unwillingness, entanglement, and gloom

Sure enough, Li Xunhuan would soon be in trouble.

This day.

Gu Hanyuan was in the courtyard teaching Long Xiaoyun the "Cloud-Dispelling Palm".

Long Xiaoyun was exceptionally gifted and had actually already learned the "Cloud-Dispelling Palm"; all she lacked was experience.

However, she seemed to have become addicted to the feeling of being punished by Gu Hanyuan, treating it as a way to be close to him.

Therefore, she always deliberately learned slowly or made mistakes.

Gu Hanyuan naturally saw through this without exposing it.

He tacitly waited until Long Xiaoyun finished practicing to properly educate her.

At this moment, Long Xiaoyun had a cautious expression as if she had made a mistake.

Yet her beautiful eyes were shining with anticipation and a hint of seductiveness.

Clearly, because of Gu Hanyuan's special educational method, Long Xiaoyun was awakening the instinct of a woman craving pleasure.

Sun Xiaohong watched from the side, looking completely confused.

In her view, with Long Xiaoyun's intelligence, it shouldn't be so difficult to just learn moves.

However, she didn't pay too much attention to it.

After all, she didn't consider Long Xiaoyun a rival.

Not to mention that she now occupied the leading position.

At this moment, she was looking at Gu Hanyuan's handsome face with a sweet smile.

A flush would occasionally flash across Sun Xiaohong's pretty face, clearly also looking forward to their time alone at night.

Unfortunately, Long Xiaoyun's anticipation ultimately fell through.

Only to see Lin Shiyin, whose figure was becoming increasingly graceful, arriving in a hurry, accompanied by Lin Xian'er, who had an inexplicable look on her face.

Lin Shiyin said anxiously:

"Young Master Gu, Cousin has been captured on suspicion of being the Plum Blossom Thief!"

Gu Hanyuan asked with feigned surprise:

"Oh? Why is that? Didn't I give him a three-month deadline? Even if someone is dissatisfied, they shouldn't dare to touch him for my sake."

Lin Shiyin said with a worried face:

"I don't know either. It was Sister Xian'er who came to notify me."

Gu Hanyuan pondered:

"No matter who it is, daring to ignore my opinion and capture Li Xunhuan, they either have enough confidence or ironclad evidence. They couldn't just be stupidly seeking death, right? Xian'er, do you know the specific situation?"

Lin Xian'er shook her head and said:

"I don't know much either. I only know that the leaders are Master Xinmei and Master Xinjian of North Shaolin. They are adamant that Li Xunhuan is the real Plum Blossom Thief."

Gu Hanyuan raised an eyebrow and said in a deep voice:

"It's those bald donkeys from Shaolin again? I'm afraid this will be difficult to handle."

Lin Shiyin asked hurriedly:

"What's wrong, Young Master Gu?"

Gu Hanyuan sighed lightly:

"The Shaolin Sect has always been overbearing in their actions; many times, even if you are reasonable, they won't reason with you; they only recognize their own logic. Not to mention, although I don't know what evidence Li Xunhuan has fallen into the hands of those bald donkeys, since they are using it as evidence, they clearly have confidence. Moreover, my relationship with Shaolin is not good, and they might not necessarily give me face. If I were to intervene by force, the impact would be too great. Unless absolutely necessary, I should try to avoid it."

Although North Shaolin wouldn't dare to act against him due to fear of gains and losses, they were the only ones who dared to disregard Gu Hanyuan's face and intervene in Li Xunhuan's affairs.

North and South Shaolin were of the same breath, but they were established in the Ming and Song countries respectively just to expand their influence.

And both North and South Shaolin had suffered great losses at Gu Hanyuan's hands, plus he was from the Wu Dangpai, so they were very hostile towards him.

At Zhang Sanfeng's centenary birthday, North Shaolin was left looking foolish by Gu Hanyuan.

At the South Shaolin assembly, the Earth Immortal Monk Wuse even fell.

Although Monk Wuse died at the hands of Wutian, many within South Shaolin believed it was because Gu Hanyuan had injured Monk Wuse first, which eventually led to his death at Wutian's hands.

Moreover, Gu Hanyuan had also disrupted their plan to convert the three Grandmasters, Xiao Yuanshan, Murong Bo, and Jiumozhi, so how could they not view him as a thorn in their side?

If it weren't for Gu Hanyuan's reputation being at its peak and Shaolin having Wutian as their number one enemy, they probably would have already started dealing with him.

Don't think that just because Gu Hanyuan's surface strength is equivalent to an Earth Immortal, Shaolin would be afraid.

After all, no one knows how many Earth Immortals Shaolin has hidden.

If they really mobilized multiple Earth Immortals to surround and kill him, even Gu Hanyuan would find it tricky.

Therefore, Gu Hanyuan's strategy for Shaolin was to smoke out the Earth Immortals one by one and then erode them step by step.

Both sides were well aware of their hostile relationship.

It's just that they had to maintain peace on the surface and wouldn't easily make a move.

Although Lin Shiyin had been toyed with in various ways by Gu Hanyuan because of Li Xunhuan,

She still cared for Li Xunhuan, and at this moment, she became increasingly worried.

Seeing this, Gu Hanyuan held her hand and comforted her:

"Madam doesn't need to worry too much, in any case, let's go see what the situation is first. As long as there isn't ironclad evidence, Li Xunhuan should be fine."

Being held in public, Lin Shiyin instantly turned bright red.

Especially Long Xiaoyun's stunned expression, which made her not know how to face it.

Lin Xian'er and Sun Xiaohong, on the other hand, didn't have much reaction; they had already anticipated this.

Seeing this, a flash of realization crossed Lin Shiyin's mind.

Although she was slightly slow-witted, she wasn't so stupid as to be completely unaware.

Seeing that the two women were not surprised at all, and their gazes even remained on Gu Hanyuan, she instantly understood.

For some reason, she felt very uncomfortable in her heart and subconsciously struggled slightly to pull back the hand that was being held.

What made Lin Shiyin slightly surprised was that Gu Hanyuan actually let go just like that.

She looked at Gu Hanyuan's gentle smile, her pretty face flushed slightly, and her heartbeat accelerated slightly.

Her peach behind felt inexplicably numb, and the hand that had been held and then released by Gu Hanyuan couldn't help but clench tightly.

Gu Hanyuan chuckled and took the lead in leaving.

Lin Shiyin followed subconsciously.

Perhaps because her mind had been disturbed by Gu Hanyuan.

She didn't notice the unwillingness, entanglement, and gloom in the eyes of Long Xiaoyun, who was following at the very back.

Leaving the inner courtyard and arriving at the front hall, they happened to see a large group of people escorting Li Xunhuan.

Most of them were acquaintances, but there were also many unfamiliar faces.

Especially those shiny bald heads.

Seeing Gu Hanyuan, everyone said respectfully:

"... Seen Young Master Gu!"

A-Fei, whose expression was slightly complex, also called out.
