This was also one of the reasons why she became increasingly extreme later on.

Today, seeing Yang Buhui, who was about the same age as her, the difference in their appearances was like heaven and earth.

And Yang Buhui's gaze was always on Gu Hanyuan.

After seeing Gu Hanyuan's appearance, Yin Li only felt that if it were such a heavenly figure, he would surely only look at a beautiful and lovely girl like Yang Buhui and wouldn't look at her even once.

The inferiority that arose spontaneously made her mood very low.

She also saw Gu Hanyuan force back Granny Jinhua, whom Yin Li had always admired, in just a few moves.

It was a woman's nature to admire the strong, and her favor for him grew instantly.

However, she didn't expect that Granny Jinhua wouldn't care about her life or death in order to dodge the sword qi, but she was saved by Gu Hanyuan.

Moreover, there was no disgust in his eyes when he looked at her, and he didn't show the slightest aversion while holding her in his arms.

The gentle and caring gaze in his eyes made Yin Li, who had tasted the coldness of human relationships, nearly shed tears.

After much effort to calm her excited emotions, Yin Li didn't break free from Gu Hanyuan's embrace and just looked up at him like that.

"I'm fine, big brother. Thank you for saving me."

"That's good. The battle between Abbess Miejue and Granny Jinhua is too dangerous; come with me and hide."

Gu Hanyuan reached out and gently stroked the hair on Yin Li's head.

Girls of this age have the least resistance to head-pats.

An expression of enjoyment appeared on Yin Li's face, and she obediently let Gu Hanyuan hold her hand as they walked to Ji Xiaofu and the others.

Seeing Gu Hanyuan and Yin Li return, Yang Buhui pouted, her face full of jealousy and dissatisfaction.

She had always believed that Gu Hanyuan's head-pats belonged to her, and she didn't expect that an ugly girl would suddenly appear and steal her privilege.

Seeing Gu Hanyuan return, she didn't greet him, looking at him with a puffed-up face, in the manner of "I'm angry, come and coax me."

Gu Hanyuan found it somewhat amusing and also gave Yang Buhui a head-pat, stroking her until she could no longer maintain her angry expression.

Then he also took Yang Buhui's hand, pulling the two little girls to watch the battle together.

Yang Buhui and Yin Li seemed to be naturally at odds, arguing across Gu Hanyuan.

One called the other an ugly girl, and the other said the other was useless and didn't know any Wu Gong.

It wasn't until Gu Hanyuan, who had a headache from the two girls arguing, pressed his hands on their heads that they stopped.

However, seeing that both girls were in low spirits, it was clear that they had been hit where it hurt.

He first comforted Yin Li, who was inferior about her appearance:

"Little girl, the scars on your face were caused by practicing poison arts. As long as you stop practicing and combine it with some medicine, it can be cured. If you are willing, I can help you heal your face. Just looking at the other half of your face without poison scars, I can tell that when you grow up, you will surely be a beautiful woman of refined and peerless beauty; it is truly a pity to have it ruined like this."

Seeing Gu Hanyuan looking at the poison scars on her face without any avoidance, Yin Li felt somewhat inferior and shy, not daring to look into his eyes.

But after hearing his words, hope arose, only the 'Thousand Spider Poison Hand' had the characteristic that if one stopped practicing, one would lose all their Wu Gong.

After hesitating for a moment, she still refused:

"Big brother, my name is Zhu'er. Thank you. But the 'Thousand Spider Poison Hand' is a Wu Gong passed down by my mother. Once I stop, I will lose all my Wu Gong. I need Wu Gong to avenge my mother, so I cannot lose it."

After hearing this, Gu Hanyuan turned his head to look at Yang Buhui, who was in low spirits because Ji Xiaofu couldn't teach her Emei martial arts without authorization, and she still didn't know any martial arts.

He pulled them both in front of him, squatted down, gently stroked their cheeks, and smiled gently:

"Zhu'er, my name is Gu Hanyuan, and I am a Wu Dang disciple. Do not advise others to be kind if you have not suffered their suffering; I will not advise you not to seek revenge. The 'Thousand Spider Poison Hand' is not a profound Wu Gong. Although I cannot teach you the Wu Dang Sect's Wu Gong, other Wu Gong is no problem. If you are willing, I can teach you."

Hearing Gu Hanyuan's words, Yin Li was truly moved.

Yang Buhui was simpler; upon hearing Gu Hanyuan's promise, she happily hugged his arm and kissed him on the face.

Seeing Yang Buhui's action, Yin Li was not to be outdone and hugged Gu Hanyuan's other arm.

After hesitating for a moment, seeing that he didn't show any sign of aversion, she also kissed him on the other side of his face.

Then Yin Li's face turned red with shame, and she was at a loss.

But seeing that he still had that sunny and gentle expression, she felt relieved while hugging his arm even tighter.

The two called him "Brother Hanyuan" one after another, occasionally looking at each other and huffing unhappily.

Both were trying to attract his attention, not even caring about the fierce battle on the field.

Ji Xiaofu watched the interaction of the three from the side with a strange expression.

No one knows a daughter better than her mother; she could see at a glance that Yang Buhui's little heart had already been entrusted to Gu Hanyuan.

The poison scars on Yin Li's face were hideous, and even she didn't dare to look at them much, but she didn't expect Gu Hanyuan to be able to stare at them without any aversion.

In just a few words, he had coaxed Yin Li from a stranger into his closest person.

Ji Xiaofu sighed at Gu Hanyuan's great charm; even she herself was somewhat attracted, let alone two little girls.

She was also somewhat hesitant about whether to stop Yang Buhui from getting closer to him.

Not to mention that Ji Xiaofu herself had many inexplicable feelings in her heart, and she had even been seen by him, so their relationship might become complicated.

Just saying that a person like Gu Hanyuan would inevitably reach the peak, and there would be many women who admired him in his life.

She didn't know if falling in love with him was lucky or unfortunate.

After hesitating for a moment, Ji Xiaofu decided to let nature take its course.

Ji Xiaofu named Yang Buhui 'Buhui' (No Regret), besides implying that she didn't regret giving birth to her for Yang Xiao, she also hoped that her life would be without regrets.

Having finally fallen in love with someone, if she were to stop her, she wouldn't be able to say "No Regret" in the future, regardless of whether she was happy or not. ===== CHAPTER 89 =====
