Chapter 301

Wang Yuanba asked with the air of a host:

"Who is this young hero? Why didn't Master Yue introduce him?"

"This is the 'Hero Sword' Gu Hanyuan, Gu Shaoxia. He came to visit Shan'er and is just traveling with us."

Yue Buqun had intended to publicize the relationship between Gu Hanyuan and Yue Lingshan to deter Zuo Lengchan.

The journey had been calm ever since they met Gu Hanyuan.

The Songshan Sect had not made another move.

At least until he obtained the *Evil-Warding Sword Manual*, Yue Buqun had to rely on Gu Hanyuan.

Wang Yuanba was somewhat astonished after hearing Yue Buqun's words.

Even he had heard of Gu Hanyuan's reputation.

He hadn't expected him to be so young, and even vaguely suspected that the deeds about Gu Hanyuan were hyped up.

Such things were actually common.

Disciples of high-ranking sects would go down the mountain to train, kill a few small thieves, destroy a few mountain strongholds, and then be blown out of proportion.

Each one became a young hero rarely seen in a hundred years.

However, in reality, they were just famous in name only.

It was not strange that Wang Yuanba would have such thoughts.

Ever since Gu Hanyuan became famous in the Song Guo Jianghu, various deeds had been too shocking.

Those who hadn't seen them with their own eyes would naturally find them unbelievable.

Moreover, the Wang family's influence couldn't even leave Luoyang City.

With limited discernment, such suspicions were inevitable.

Wang Yuanba's sons, Wang Bolun and Wang Zhongqiang, showed expressions of "there are no heroes in this time, allowing a mere boy to become famous."

Wang Yuanba laughed heroically and cupped his hands:

"So it is the 'Hero Sword,' Gu Shaoxia. Disrespect, disrespect."

Gu Hanyuan didn't think much of the Wang family.

Just keep them to build reputation for the Luo Wang later.

Moreover, the Wang family's influence couldn't even extend beyond Luoyang City.

Wang Yuanba was very dissatisfied with Gu Hanyuan's arrogance.

He asked curiously:

"I have heard that Gu Shaoxia's swordplay is divine. I wonder if I might witness it?"

Gu Hanyuan's expression turned cold and sharp upon hearing this:

"My sword always draws blood when drawn. I wonder who you want to test my sword on, Old Master Wang?"

How could he not hear that Wang Yuanba was trying to take the opportunity to test whether the *Evil-Warding Sword Manual* had been obtained by Gu Hanyuan?

Only the ignorant Wang Yuanba could ask such a stupid question.

Gu Hanyuan's strength was far stronger than Lin Yuantu's back then.

Yue Buqun and Lin Pingzhi had never doubted it.

Wang Yuanba's expression was ugly.

He hadn't expected Gu Hanyuan to say he would draw blood, not putting him in his eyes at all.

Lin Pingzhi, seeing the tense atmosphere, spoke before his uncles Wang Bolun and Wang Zhongqiang:

"Gu Shaoxia, my grandfather is just joking. Why take it seriously?"

Gu Hanyuan couldn't be bothered to deal with such small characters.

"Since Old Master Wang doesn't welcome me, I shouldn't disturb you further. Farewell."

Gu Hanyuan directly exposed his sinister intentions without giving Wang Yuanba any face.

He greeted Yue Lingshan and rose to leave. ===== CHAPTER 303 =====

He never expected Gu Hanyuan to speak of bloodshed,

completely disregarding him.

Lin Pingzhi, seeing the tense atmosphere in the room,

spoke up before the two brothers, Wang Bolun and Wang Zhongqiang, could:

"Gu Shaoxia, my grandfather was only joking. Why take it seriously?"

Gu Hanyuan couldn't be bothered to pay attention to such small-time characters.

"Since Old Master Wang does not welcome me, I shall not intrude. Farewell."

Gu Hanyuan directly exposed his sinister intentions without giving Wang Yuanba any face,

and after greeting Yue Lingshan, he rose and left.
