~10 min read 1,934 words

Master Kongwen shook his head, clearly not agreeing with what Zhang Zhang Cuishan said.

"Amitabha. How can the seventy-one lives of the Longmen Escort Agency be settled with a sentence that they were not injured by Fifth Hero Zhang? That Brother Xie Xun is an evil thief who has killed countless people and is full of evil, how can he be shielded?"

"Hand over Brother Xie Xun!"

"Hand over Brother Xie Xun!"

Except for the Emei Sect, which was relatively reserved, people from other major sects shouted and made noise one after another.

Zhang Zhang Cuishan was forced by the momentum of the crowd, his face showing conflict, not because he wanted to reveal the whereabouts of Yin Yin Susu and Brother Xie Xun, but because he was hesitating whether to explain that Brother Xie Xun was framed by Cheng Kun. If it were announced now, it would inevitably startle the snake, and it would be even harder to find Cheng Kun’s whereabouts in the future.

Yin Yin Susu misunderstood, thinking that Zhang Zhang Cuishan was holding a grudge against her for killing the seventy-one people of the Longmen Escort Agency.

Thinking: Forget it, forget it. At least we were husband and wife, and I have been loved by him for half my life. I have failed in my wifely duties, so it would be good to pay it back today.

However, just when Yin Yin Susu wanted to come out and confess that she was the one who killed the seventy-one people of the Longmen Escort Agency, her pupils shrank, and she looked in disbelief at the person who walked into the field a step ahead of her, bowed to the crowd, and spoke loudly.

"I am Gu Gu Hanyuan, a third-generation disciple of Wu Dang. Regarding today’s matter, there are a few words I must say. Master Master Kongwen is virtuous and famous all over the world, so he shouldn't stop a small disciple like me from saying a few words of justice, right?"

It was Gu Gu Hanyuan who appeared. Seeing Yin Yin Susu looking like she was about to explode, he cursed "stupid woman" and had to appear in advance to resolve the siege. Fortunately, it had little impact on the plan, and maybe there would be unexpected gains.

Gu Gu Hanyuan suddenly entered the focus of the crowd, not only stunning the people of the major sects such as Master Kongwen, but also shaking the Wu Dang crowd.

Even many people of the Wu Dangpai didn't know Gu Gu Hanyuan, this usual transparent person, only the six people including the Seven Heroes who often went to visit Yu Yu Daiyan could

occasionally see his figure. They knew that Yu Yu Daiyan had such a disciple who, although very handsome, had no presence.

Shangguan Shangguan Haitang also looked surprised, not expecting that the person she had appreciated after looking at each other a few times would appear in the field in such a situation.

In her heart, she also hoped that Gu Gu Hanyuan could be safe.

Abbess Miejue frowned, for her, the most important thing was to find the whereabouts of the Golden-Haired Lion King Brother Xie Xun, so as to avenge her own brother, the "Golden Melon Hammer" Fang Ping.

Originally, she saw that the matter had made progress, but it was suddenly interrupted by Gu Gu Hanyuan, so she inevitably felt dissatisfied.

As for the disciples behind Miejue, they only felt that Gu Gu Hanyuan was overestimating his own strength, but it was a pity for his good-looking face.

Yin Yin Susu was more shocked than anyone in the field,

She could see that if it weren't for her momentary impulse, based on her understanding, Gu Gu Hanyuan would not have chosen to appear at such a dangerous time.

Although she still felt a little resentful about being threatened by him that night, after being comforted by him before, plus the secret interaction just now, she couldn't deny that she had a few feelings for him.

Being moved like this again, Yin Yin Susu began to waver.

She could only choose to believe in Gu Gu Hanyuan at this time, silently praying for his safety.

Gu Gu Hanyuan decided to step to the front of the stage in the few steps he decided to go down.

And if he didn't want to be like everyone else, he had to have enough prestige, and the ugly-faced Master Kongwen and the bitter-faced Kongzhi in front of him were the best tools for brushing prestige.

Song Song Yuanqiao was kind-hearted, and seeing Gu Gu Hanyuan attract firepower in such a dangerous situation, he subconsciously wanted to stop him, but was stopped by Zhang Zhang Sanfeng.

And Zhang Zhang Sanfeng was watching with interest the grandson who usually had no presence, but now seemed to be shining, debating with the heroes, and talking freely.

With his vision, it was naturally not difficult to see in this situation that Gu Gu Hanyuan, who usually hid very deeply, already had the cultivation realm of the early Pre-Natal stage.

Even if he hadn't seen him take action, information such as his pace, eyes, and breath made Gu Gu Hanyuan’s hidden cultivation realm almost invisible in Zhang Zhang Sanfeng’s eyes.

Of course, only Zhang Zhang Sanfeng had such vision in the field, even Daoist Mu was still a bit short.

Master Kongwen’s face became very ugly when he heard Gu Gu Hanyuan use words similar to what he said to Zhang Zhang Sanfeng. There was a faint premonition that he would not get his wish today.

Master Kongwen, a person who seems to have high morality and compassion, actually has a very small mind, often speculates on others with the greatest malice, and loves to show off his little cleverness to satisfy his sense of superiority.

In fact, Master Kongwen didn't care about the Longmen Escort Agency.

After all, the Longmen Escort Agency was just an escort agency opened by Du Du Dajin, a secular disciple of North North Shaolin who had poor martial arts qualifications and was asked to retire. And there were at least eight hundred secular disciples like Du Du Dajin in the Ming Guo.

Even every year, one or two secular disciples similar to Du Du Dajin would die. And no one saw North North Shaolin seeking justice for anyone.

What status could such a Du Du Dajin have in Master Kongwen’s heart?

It was just because it happened to involve Zhang Zhang Cuishan that he could use this to attack the Wu Dangpai.

Avenging Master Kongjian was sincere, after all, he was the strongest master on the surface of North North Shaolin. And Master Kongjian had a very good reputation, otherwise he wouldn't have made Brother Xie Xun convinced.

Master Kongjian’s death had greatly damaged the interests of North North Shaolin.

As for seeking the Dragon-Slaying Saber, it was also to improve the status of North North Shaolin in Jianghu, and he had no interest in the Dragon-Slaying Saber itself.

"Since the little donor has something to say, please speak directly."

Master Kongwen tried to find some face and regain the initiative by relying on the old and selling the old.

Gu Gu Hanyuan didn't care about Master Kongwen’s slightly clumsy provocation.

"I don't know if Master Master Kongwen has any solid evidence that Fifth Uncle killed the seventy-one people of the Longmen Escort Agency?"

Master Kongwen frowned, but had to tell the truth.

"Although there is no evidence, the only person who is most likely and has the most motive at the time is Fifth Hero Zhang."

Seeing that Master Kongwen admitted there was no evidence, Gu Gu Hanyuan gave a fatal blow.

"That is to say, Master Master Kongwen is forcing Fifth Uncle with a 'groundless' charge? I didn't expect that the virtuous Master Master Kongwen and the famous North North Shaolin in Jianghu are comparing themselves to the Emperor of the Song Guo? Is the next step to send Fifth Uncle to North North Shaolin to be beheaded on a chosen day?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan’s words fell, and the hundred people in the entire hall instantly became quiet, leaving only the sound of breathing.

Although it was a bit unreasonable, it had only been a mere 20 years since Yue Fei was unjustly killed.

The matter back then made the whole world noisy. Even in the Ming Guo, it was known to everyone. And the "groundless" charge was also hated by people all over the world since then.

With Yue Fei’s prestige in various countries in the Central Plains back then, if it were confirmed that North North Shaolin imitated the Song Guo Emperor Zhao Gou and unjustly killed Zhang Zhang Cuishan with a "groundless" charge, North North Shaolin would likely be razed to the ground by people who respected Yue Fei all over the world.

So this black pot of "groundless" charge, Master Kongwen and North North Shaolin could never afford to carry.

And what Gu Gu Hanyuan said about North North Shaolin comparing itself to the Song Guo Emperor was even more taboo. A Jianghu sect compares itself to the Emperor, what exactly does it want to do?

"You... you..."

Master Kongwen was so shocked that he couldn't speak, and could only stammer a few "you"s.

And the other major sects were also lingering in fear, and never returned to the previous noise.

Shangguan Shangguan Haitang was also full of admiration for Gu Gu Hanyuan’s boldness. He actually directly put a big pot on North North Shaolin for Yu Wanting to unjustly kill Zhang Zhang Cuishan with a "groundless" charge.

As for the matter of comparing himself to the Emperor, it was more subtle.

If you don't care, it’s just a matter of laughing it off. If you really want to care, the imperial court has every reason to take action against North North Shaolin.

Yin Yin Susu had a deep understanding of Gu Gu Hanyuan’s shamelessness; things like directly putting black pots were exactly what he would do.

This move was indeed powerful, but the key was how to solve Brother Xie Xun’s matter? Even if North Shaolin was forced to retreat, the covetousness of the other major sects for the Dragon-Slaying Saber would never be easily given up.

Gu Gu Hanyuan looked at the changes in the field, a contemptuous smile hooked on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes specifically glanced at the restless Kongzhi, instantly provoking his anger.

"Yellow-mouthed child, speaking nonsense! How dare you slander North North Shaolin! I can't keep you today!"

Kongzhi’s character was impulsive and irritable, and after being provoked by Gu Gu Hanyuan, he instantly lost his mind, jumped up, and took action against Gu Gu Hanyuan.

"Junior brother, don't!"

Although Master Kongwen was also very angry at Gu Gu Hanyuan’s words, he still knew that it was not appropriate to take action today, otherwise, once it evolved into a large-scale fight, even North North Shaolin might be left on Mount Wudang.

He still had some self-knowledge about the strength comparison, and previously forcing Zhang Zhang Cuishan also relied on the cooperation of major sects to wrap up the general trend and the name of chivalry. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to come to Zhang Zhang Sanfeng to find death even if he had ten guts.

It was just that he never expected that he, who was targeted, was still calm, but Kongzhi, who had been a background board for most of the day, couldn't hold back his anger and took action against Gu Gu Hanyuan.
