Chapter 510
This grape wine was indeed somewhat special.
Gu Hanyuan and Ren Yingying listened to the Four Friends of Jiangnan's flattery while drinking and chatting.
Not long after,
Ren Woxing walked out with a dragon-like, tiger-like stride.
Having tidied up his image, the madness was gone from Ren Woxing,
but he did possess the temperament of an ambitious hero.
Ren Yingying shouted with joy:
"Father!"
Ren Woxing looked at Ren Yingying with great gratification and said:
"My daughter has grown up."
In front of Ren Woxing, Ren Yingying was just a little girl.
She was shy and coquettish.
The two chatted for a while.
Ren Woxing's expression suddenly turned serious as he looked at the Four Friends of Jiangnan.
Under their nervous gaze, he said indignantly:
"You let me out, so I shouldn't hold it against you anymore. But you locked me up for 12 years, and I have to vent this anger."
As he spoke, he used both hands to channel the "Star-Sucking Great Art," pulling Huang Zhonggong and Heibai Zi toward him.
However, before the panicked pair could call for help,
they were pulled back by another force of suction.
After their fright subsided, they respectfully thanked Gu Hanyuan.
Ren Woxing asked with uncertainty:
"Dragon-Capturing Skill?"
Gu Hanyuan smiled indifferently:
"Senior Ren has a good eye."
Ren Woxing exclaimed in surprise.
Looking at the intimate way Gu Hanyuan and Ren Yingying were acting,
he wasn't blind,
so how could he not see it?
He asked with focus:
"Truly, heroes come from the youth. I have been away from the Jianghu for a long time and don't know when these new rising stars appeared. Young man, who are you? And what is your relationship with Yingying?"
Gu Hanyuan said calmly:
"I am a disciple of Wudang, Gu Hanyuan. Yingying is my woman."
"A Wudang disciple? I trust Yingying's judgment, but do you really intend to stop me?"
Ren Woxing was somewhat surprised to hear that Gu Hanyuan was a Wudang disciple,
but Ren Woxing, who had always been self-centered, wouldn't give face just because Gu Hanyuan was from Wudang.
Gu Hanyuan smiled lightly:
"The Four Friends of Jiangnan have already submitted to Yingying, so Senior Ren no longer has the authority to dispose of them."
Ren Woxing felt a surge of annoyance,
feeling that Gu Hanyuan's words were mocking him for not being what he once was.
"Why can't I dispose of my daughter's subordinates?"
Gu Hanyuan glanced at the nervous Ren Yingying,
signaled for her to be at ease, and said:
"Although Senior Ren is Yingying's father, I cannot bear to see Yingying's interests suffer."
Ren Woxing had already intended to test Gu Hanyuan,
so he directly issued a challenge:
"You have courage. But since you want to stand up for them, I have to vet you for Yingying's sake."
"Senior Ren, please enlighten me."
Seeing that Gu Hanyuan still had that nonchalant look,
Ren Woxing became even more irritated
and was about to teach him a lesson.
Ren Yingying said urgently:
"Father, forget it! Brother Yuan is doing this for my own good."
Seeing this, Ren Woxing laughed:
"Haha, truly, a daughter follows her husband. Don't worry, Yingying, I will go easy on him."
However, Ren Woxing's words caused everyone to have strange expressions,
even Xiang Wentian was no exception.
Ren Yingying didn't know whether she should speak or not.
She wasn't worried about Gu Hanyuan,
but about Ren Woxing.
However, after receiving a reassuring look from Gu Hanyuan,
Ren Yingying decided to leave the matter to Gu Hanyuan to resolve.
She would never oppose Gu Hanyuan's decision in front of outsiders.
It was no wonder Ren Yingying was always rumored to be the best choice for a wife.
Although Ren Woxing was confused by the strange looks from everyone,
he still maintained his composure and said:
"Little brother, make your move."
Gu Hanyuan muttered to himself,
"I am not 'little' at all; if you don't believe me, go ask Yingying."
But he didn't stop his hands.
Having had the experience of fighting Huang Yaoshi,
Gu Hanyuan had more ways to deal with troublesome old fathers-in-law.
He held back without showing it.
Ren Woxing was more and more surprised the longer they fought.
Although he couldn't see any signs of Gu Hanyuan holding back,
he found it quite difficult to deal with him.
Ren Woxing and Huang Yaoshi were at similar realms,
both at the peak of Grandmaster.
But Ren Woxing had a fatal flaw.
Ren Woxing succeeded because of the "Star-Sucking Great Art" and failed because of it.
The "Star-Sucking Great Art" was not like the "Northern Profound Divine Art," which could easily accommodate foreign internal energy
and then refine it.
The principle of the "Northern Profound Divine Art" was to use the opposite circulation route
to attract positive energy with negative energy.
The principle of the "Star-Sucking Great Art" was to leave one's dantian empty of internal energy,
using that void to suck in others' internal energy.
The two were completely different.
The "Star-Sucking Great Art" stored internal energy in the various acupoints of the Ren Meridian,
and its ability to digest and absorb was extremely poor.
Therefore, he had to use his own internal energy to suppress the foreign internal energy in his body.
