Chapter 865

~5 min read 936 words

Gu Hanyuan did have some influence on Yan Huifeng.

In *Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty*, he died at the hands of Ba Fenghan.

It was clear he had not yet encountered Ba Fenghan.

"Prince Jalal ad-Din of Khwarazm."

Khwarazm had already been conquered by the Mongol Yuan.

The so-called prince was merely part of a government in exile.

This trip was likely for the purpose of seeking allies.

He had several expert guards by his side.

Their expressions were vigilant.

Most eye-catching of all was a veiled woman with a slender figure.

She had golden hair and green eyes, brows like spring mountains, and eyes like autumn waters.

Her skin lacked a bit of color, appearing slightly pale.

This was the first time Gu Hanyuan had seen a "Western beauty" in this world.

He felt no small amount of interest in her.

The veiled woman was also looking at Gu Hanyuan with great interest at this moment.

Her autumn-like eyes winked at him in a teasing manner.

That instant of charm was infinitely alluring.

Many men who had been watching her were left dazed.

Gu Hanyuan smiled warmly in acknowledgement.

Yet, in his heart, he was pondering the woman's identity.

"Prince Galdan of Dzungar."

The foolish prince from *The Deer and the Cauldron* who was tricked by Wei Xiaobao into becoming his sworn brother.

At this moment, he was chatting happily with Prince Zongzan, as they were birds of a feather.

"Huo Huo Ayi, the young tribal leader of the Hui Tribe, and his sister, Huo Qingtong of the Green Feather."

Gu Hanyuan's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

Huo Qingtong was dressed in men's clothing.

She wore a small cap embroidered with gold thread.

A long, emerald-green feather was tucked into the side of the cap.

The situation for the Hui Tribe in this world was even more dire.

She was as delicate as spring flowers and as beautiful as the morning glow.

Her beauty was tinged with a heroic and spirited air.

Her male attire was not intended to hide her identity as a woman.

It also attracted the attention of many men.

Gu Hanyuan had already had a faint suspicion when he first saw that emerald-green feather.

Now that he had received confirmation from Shangguan Haitang.

His interest increased significantly.

Not only because Huo Qingtong was extremely beautiful.

But also because he still kept in mind the saying that one could rule the world by obtaining the four women.

He had already succeeded with Huang Rong and Ren Yingying.

Zhao Min was currently in a hostile position, so she was not being considered.

Huo Qingtong's military command talent was indispensable.

The situation for the Hui Tribe in this world was even more dire.

They were surviving entirely in the cracks.

Facing aggression from both the Mongol Yuan and the Qing Guo.

If not for Huo Qingtong leading her people to repel the enemy several times.

The Hui Tribe would have long since perished.

Therefore, her brows were filled with sorrow.

Clearly, she was worried about the future of the Hui Tribe.

Aside from accompanying Huo Huo Ayi to the marriage proposal.

Her greater purpose was to find allies.

Huo Qingtong saw Gu Hanyuan looking at her.

She was startled for a moment.

She merely nodded and smiled in acknowledgement.

This surprised Gu Hanyuan, as her reaction was so indifferent.

After a moment of thought, he understood.

Although Gu Hanyuan's status in the Jianghu was extremely high at this moment.

Once it rose to the national level, he would naturally not be taken seriously.

After all, he had never gone all-out against an army.

It was normal for him to be questioned.

In front of thousands upon thousands of soldiers.

The effect of martial arts would be minimized to the greatest extent.

Jianghu experts could only perform assassinations or capture the leader to subdue the followers.

If one were to truly clash head-on with an army.

One would only be exhausted to death.

Not to mention the threat of volleys from powerful bows and heavy crossbows.

Unless an expert below the Grandmaster Realm possessed peerless lightness skills.

They would undoubtedly die if they encountered a large army.

A Grandmaster might be able to escape.

But if they wanted to shake an army head-on.

They would eventually be exhausted to death.

Only experts at the Earth Immortal level had the ability to slaughter their way through an army.

That was why the status of Earth Immortals was so transcendent.

This was also the common view held by the imperial courts of various nations regarding Jianghu experts.

Of course, this standard did not apply to Gu Hanyuan.

He possessed spiritual energy and various immortal arts.

As long as he did not care about the consumption.

He could completely achieve large-scale slaughter of an army.

Gu Hanyuan's gaze was deep.

He was pondering finding an opportunity to create a big stir.

"King Yeongnyu of Goguryeo, Go Geon-mu, and beside him is Fu Junyu, the second disciple of the Yi Sword Master, Fu Cailin, serving as his guard."

Gu Hanyuan was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.

He had already had his suspicions when he learned that people from Goguryeo were coming.

He had originally thought he would see Fu Junqiao.

He did not expect it to be Fu Junyu instead.

Fu Junyu was in the prime of her youth.

She had a dignified and calm face.

Yet she possessed a pair of charming, bright eyes.

Seeing Gu Hanyuan look over.

She feigned fierceness and glared back.

It actually made her appear quite spirited. ===== CHAPTER 867 =====
