Chapter 364
She hadn't expected that she wouldn't die at the hands of her rival Li Qiu,
but instead would lose her life at the hands of a small-time villain.
Just then, a harsh sound of breaking air came from the sky.
Everyone looked up one after another,
and even Duan Muyuan was startled into pausing the knife he was about to hack at Wu Xingyun.
Wu Xingyun breathed a sigh of relief,
also looking up curiously.
However, when everyone saw clearly what was happening,
they all opened their mouths wide,
looking incredulous.
Wu Xingyun's eyes also vibrated,
calling out in her heart, "How is this possible!"
Everyone saw a figure in white, carrying an indigo-blue sword box, stepping on a gleaming long sword,
cutting through the sky and landing in the field.
Such a celestial method of "Sword Flight" stunned everyone into speechlessness.
Gu Hanyuan jumped lightly, landing from the Hero Sword,
and looked around.
Finally, his gaze settled on Wu Xingyun, who had her cherry mouth slightly open.
Although Wu Xingyun's figure was only eight or nine years old,
her appearance was delicate and beautiful, and her eyes were full of ripples.
What a beautiful girl she was.
Even Gu Hanyuan sighed;
no wonder she could be a rival in love with Li Qiu.
If this beauty could grow up,
she might not lose to Li Qiu.
Wu Xingyun, seeing the handsome, immortal-like, and dashing Gu Hanyuan land and stare at her,
felt inexplicably strange.
Wu Xingyun marveled at how young Gu Hanyuan was,
looking like he wasn't even twenty.
The miraculous "Sword Flight" he used when he appeared
was something even her master, Xiaoyaozi, couldn't do.
She was even more amazed by his appearance and temperament;
even Wu Wu Yazi back then couldn't compare to him.
She even thought strangely:
if Li Qiu saw such a handsome, heroic youth,
she would definitely want to seduce him, right?
Wu Xingyun, who had always kept herself pure, looked down most on Li Qiu, who married two husbands.
She despised her promiscuity.
Duan Muyuan asked in horror:
"Who are you? How dare you meddle in the affairs of the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands!"
He wasn't stupid,
subconsciously feeling that Gu Hanyuan might be here to cause trouble,
so he used the name of the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands,
wanting to make Gu Hanyuan wary.
However, Gu Hanyuan wouldn't care about this rabble.
He shouted coldly:
"Those who harm children must die!"
As soon as the words fell,
the Hero Sword, still floating in the air, turned into a dazzling silver light and flashed past.
Immediately after, an ugly head soared into the sky,
and the headless corpse fell powerlessly to the ground.
At this moment, the Hero Sword also returned to the "Cold Moon Sword Box" on Gu Hanyuan's back.
The crowd of the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands retreated in horror,
fearing when another long sword would fly out of the sword box on Gu Hanyuan's back to take their lives.
Wu Xingyun was so shocked she couldn't close her mouth,
marveling in her heart, "Is this some kind of immortal method?"
Of course, Gu Hanyuan killing Duan Muyuan still made her very happy,
and she couldn't help but reveal a trace of a smile.
Although using "Sword Art" to kill a Duan Muyuan was a bit of a waste of spiritual energy,
Gu Hanyuan was doing it to show off in front of Wu Xingyun anyway,
so he didn't care about wasting that little bit of spiritual energy.
Wu Laoda was relatively more courageous,
asking while enduring his fear:
"Who exactly are you, Excellency? Why kill Cave Master Duan for no reason?"
Gu Hanyuan glanced at Wu Laoda,
his tone softening a bit,
but not friendly enough.
"For no reason? Gu has already said, those who harm children must die."
Wu Laoda's expression shifted,
thinking of the person most famous in the Jianghu right now who also had the surname Gu.
He bit the bullet and asked:
"Could it be 'Hero Sword' Gu Hanyuan, Young Master Gu?"
"It is Gu."
Gu Hanyuan looked at Wu Laoda with some surprise,
not expecting this person to be somewhat witty.
Seeing Gu Hanyuan admit it,
everyone started discussing it one after another.
Recently, the person most in the limelight in the Jianghu was Gu Hanyuan.
Seeing him in person now,
they only felt it was even more exaggerated than the rumors.
Just from his appearance, it was as if he wasn't in the same style as them,
let alone the Sword Flight technique that had never been spread in the Jianghu.
Wu Xingyun's eyes flickered.
She had also heard of Gu Hanyuan's great name,
but at the time, she only thought of him as a junior,
not paying him any mind at all,
thinking it was just something blown out of proportion in the Jianghu.
Who knew he would be this powerful?
Gu Hanyuan didn't care about the crowd's discussion and noise,
ignoring them and turning to look at Wu Xingyun.
