Chapter 507: Carrying Darkness to Protect the Light

Gu Hanyuan left Little Dragon Maiden in the Ancient Tomb to cultivate in peace.

After dual cultivation,

with the feedback of spiritual energy,

Little Dragon Maiden would find it easier to break through to Great Grandmaster than before.

Rather than running around blindly with Gu Hanyuan,

it was better to stay in the Ancient Tomb and focus on improving her realm,

which would also provide more help to Gu Hanyuan.

Although Little Dragon Maiden was somewhat reluctant,

she still obediently agreed.

Li Mochou and Hong Lingbo were taken by Gu Hanyuan to Swallow Dock.

They had rich experience in walking the Jianghu.

Li Mochou's methods were ruthless enough,

her strength was at the Grandmaster level,

and she was skilled in using poison.

As long as they didn't run into a Great Grandmaster,

they were more reassuring than A'zi.

The two women were somewhat shocked by the truth that Gu Hanyuan was "Wutian."

Although Li Mochou had thoughts of turning over a new leaf,

she was persuaded by Gu Hanyuan's theory that "where there is light, there must be darkness; rather than letting darkness exist in a chaotic and disorderly state, it is better to shoulder the darkness oneself to protect the light."

Moreover, for the sake of her lover,

she was willing to walk the path of slaughter once again.

Li Mochou had originally wanted to use "Red Practice" as her codename,

but to avoid people associating it with her,

she changed it to "Silver Ring,"

meaning the gentle yet most poisonous Silver Ring Snake.

She was now the highest-ranking "Kill-level" commander besides Gu Hanyuan.

Hong Lingbo's codename was "Oleander,"

meaning a poisonous flower called the Oleander.

After dual cultivation, Hong Lingbo also broke through to the early stage of Acquired Realm.

Like A'zi, she was an Earth-level commander.

A'zi had originally been unconvinced by Li Mochou,

but Li Mochou's martial arts were superior to hers,

her use of poison was superior to hers,

and her Jianghu experience was also superior to hers.

She was quickly taught a lesson and became completely obedient,

and she became even more eager to improve her martial arts realm.

A'zi dragged A'zhu along

and diligently pleased Gu Hanyuan once.

She didn't hesitate at all when it came to selling out her own mother.

Without Ruan Xingzhu's knowledge,

she made all sorts of promises regarding her.

Gu Hanyuan had already intended to improve A'zi's realm as soon as possible,

and having gained so much for nothing,

he very readily gave her the "Yin-Yang Spirit Blood Pill."

A'zi's martial arts realm was still quite far off,

so breaking through to Grandmaster in a short time wasn't realistic,

but reaching the peak of the Acquired Realm wasn't difficult.

Gu Hanyuan finished the arrangements for the three women

and "Sword-Flew" to Green Bamboo Alley.

Ren Yingying threw herself into his arms with joy.

After being caught steadily by Gu Hanyuan, she asked:

"Brother Yuan, have you found Wu Xingyun?"

This was the understanding and magnanimous side of Ren Yingying.

The first thing she asked upon meeting was the whereabouts of Wu Xingyun.

Gu Hanyuan shook his head with regret:

"I haven't found her yet."

Gu Hanyuan had known where Wu Xingyun went all along,

and he hadn't gone to look for her at all.

However, there was no need to tell Ren Yingying about this.

Seeing this, Ren Yingying comforted him:

"She is your disciple, and her martial arts are not low; she will definitely be safe and sound."

Gu Hanyuan feigned a sigh:

"I hope so."

He then changed the subject:

"Yingying, do you already have news about your father?"

Ren Yingying said solemnly:

"Yes, Uncle Xiang said he already has a clue. My father is being held in the West Lake Plum Manor. Once we meet up, we can go rescue my father."

Gu Hanyuan didn't intend to waste too much time on Ren Woxing,

so he suggested: ===== CHAPTER 509 =====
