Chapter 149: Can They Actually Reconcile?

Long Xiaoyun stood on the spot, but gave people the feeling that he had walked far away.

Gu Qing's arrival had completely reversed the situation.

Long Xiaoyun's side had the Central Plains Eight Righteous and the madman Hu. Now, the Central Plains Eight Righteous had clearly rebelled.

And although the madman Hu was not in the Weapon Manual, he clearly had top-tier strength. However, the madman Hu looked down on Long Xiaoyun; holding Li Xunhuan and watching from the side was already doing his best. It was impossible to make the madman Hu exert more effort.

So Long Xiaoyun had no more moves.

"Is this 'using his own way to treat his own body'?"

Long Xiaoyun thought of the Central Plains Eight Righteous's defection and said, "Gu Qing, if you want something, just draw the line."

Long Xiaoyun had no other way. If pain were graded, Long Xiaoyun's arm injury and failed scheme made this his most painful moment.

"I like to resolve fights."

Gu Qing said with a laugh, "I could resolve the hatred between the Central Plains Eight Righteous and Tie Chuanjia, so I want to resolve the hatred between you and Li Xunhuan, and let you two continue to be good brothers."

Long Xiaoyun looked at Gu Qing in surprise. Could they actually reconcile?

Gu Qing instructed the Central Plains Eight Righteous to bring a table, tidy up the pen and ink, and send them in front of Long Xiaoyun.

"Many things, once talked through, are fine."

Gu Qing signaled for Li Xunhuan and Long Xiaoyun to sit down, then said, "Long Xiaoyun, the root of your pain is Lin Shiyin. After meeting Lin Shiyin, you started to be painful, and after marrying Lin Shiyin, you were still painful."

Long Xiaoyun looked at Gu Qing with a dark face as he placed the paper and pen in front of him.

"So if you write a letter of divorce, you can completely end the pain."

Gu Qing tapped the table and said, "After this, you, Long Xiaoyun, will be free from Lin Shiyin's shackles, free from pain, and will become a great hero in Jiang Hu again."

Gu Qing's words were reasonable and well-founded.

Long Xiaoyun turned his eyes and looked at Li Xunhuan hatefully.

With this letter of divorce, wouldn't Li Xunhuan be together with Lin Shiyin?

Li Xunhuan turned his face away.

"I know the considerations of you two."

Gu Qing said again, "After Long Xiaoyun's letter of divorce, things between Li Xunhuan and Lin Shiyin will naturally fall into place. Because of this matter, the two of you probably won't be able to be brothers anymore, so I am prepared to make a sacrifice."

"The current situation is, if Long Xiaoyun divorces his wife, Lin Shiyin will be with Li Xunhuan. But at the same time, I can be considered to have saved Li Xunhuan's life. As Li Xunhuan's friend, and having saved Li Xunhuan's life—and Li Xunhuan being the type of person who doesn't care about his life when making friends—in this situation, I will become sallow and thin, with no desire to live. Li Xunhuan will inevitably go to eat, drink, whore, and gamble, letting Lin Shiyin take care of me, and then she will be disappointed in him."

This was a mature path that could be relied upon.

When Li Xunhuan and Long Xiaoyun heard this, they both felt very uncomfortable and urgently wanted Gu Qing to shut up, but they could only listen to Gu Qing continue the topic.

"Don't worry, I will take on the responsibility of taking care of Lin Shiyin."

"Without Lin Shiyin, Li Xunhuan and Long Xiaoyun will become close friends. Can this result be considered everyone being happy?"

Gu Qing's words could be considered a perfect ending.

Li Xunhuan, who valued friendship, took care of friendship; Long Xiaoyun, who lived in pain, was freed from pain; as for Gu Qing... it was just an extra responsibility.

Hu the Madman and the Central Plains Eight Righteous heard this and looked at each other, never expecting Gu Qing to come up with this method to resolve the hatred.

Thinking about it carefully, this could indeed resolve the hatred.

It was just that this link by link, let Lin Shiyin turn to Gu Qing.

"The logic is like this."

Yi Minghu, who had eyes but no pupils among the Central Plains Eight Righteous, said, "But if you do this, you are not righteous, not a good friend."

A true friend shouldn't have designs on a friend's wife.

And even more so, shouldn't let a friend give up his wife.

"Long Xiaoyun is my benchmark."

Gu Qing said as a matter of course, "Besides, Li Xunhuan didn't say anything about this matter."

Yi Minghu then understood why Gu Qing wanted to set Long Xiaoyun up as a benchmark; it turned out there was a precedent.

Long Xiaoyun's face was flushed with anger.

At this time, Li Xunhuan closed his eyes with a pale face.

Gu Qing was truly moving a knife on their wounds.

"Write quickly!"

Gu Qing slapped the table and called out to Long Xiaoyun, "If you don't write, I'll hit you!"

"I will not repeat the absurd things of that year!"

Li Xunhuan suddenly opened his eyes and called out, "And I will never hand Shiyin over to others again!"

"Oh?"

Gu Qing's expression changed greatly, and he said angrily, "You actually don't care about the friendship between us?! You are too unrighteous!"

Li Xunhuan smiled, a very gentle smile, though his face was very pale, and said, "Some things are not within the scope of righteousness."

Li Xunhuan had long since figured out many things, but the mistake had already been made and could not be changed. Since it had reached this point today, Li Xunhuan had also let go... After all, Gu Qing had previously captured Li Xunhuan and let Li Xunhuan talk with Lin Shiyin for a whole night.

Li Xunhuan would never repeat the same mistake again.

When Long Xiaoyun heard this, his face turned as gloomy as water. If Li Xunhuan really wanted to take everything back, Long Xiaoyun had no ability to resist at all.

Gu Qing looked at Li Xunhuan and also smiled, then immediately took action, unblocking Li Xunhuan's acupoints. Hu the Madman was nearby, watching, but didn't take action to stop him.

"I have made many friends, but I have always advised others, yet I have never been able to listen to a word of advice from others. Just like this drinking, many people have advised me."

After Li Xunhuan's body could move, he said frankly, "But I have never listened. Gu Qing, you are the only one among the friends I have made who can urge me to change... I also know today that changing oneself requires even more courage."

Li Xunhuan recognized Gu Qing as a friend.

"Hehe..."

Gu Qing looked at Li Xunhuan, the two looked at each other and smiled, then he patted the table and signaled to Long Xiaoyun, "No need to write the letter of divorce."

"What?"

Li Xunhuan stopped smiling.

Long Xiaoyun's stiff face was even more dazed.

"Since Lin Shiyin has nothing to do with me, then I don't need to let Long Xiaoyun write a letter of divorce, right?"

Gu Qing said to Li Xunhuan with a laugh, "Besides, Xiao Yun doesn't agree with this matter either."

Gu Qing had no chance to enter the bridal chamber, so he started dismantling the stage directly.

Li Xunhuan thought of Long Xiaoyun, and at this time, he completely stopped smiling.

"You guys continue."

Gu Qing got up and prepared to leave. Only when Gu Qing left could they tear at each other again.

A smile gradually appeared on Long Xiaoyun's face. Dealing with Li Xunhuan, Long Xiaoyun had it in the bag. As long as Gu Qing left, Long Xiaoyun was prepared to go back on his word immediately, leaving Li Xunhuan helpless.

"Wait."

Li Xunhuan called out.

Gu Qing turned his head to look at Li Xunhuan.

"You can help me resolve my knot, can you help A'fei?"

Li Xunhuan said.

After Li Xunhuan said he wouldn't give up Lin Shiyin, he felt much more relieved. Thinking of A'fei still being tortured by Lin Xian'er, he begged Gu Qing, saying, "As long as you are willing to help, I can unconditionally agree to one thing for you."

Li Xunhuan always had a psychology of saving others. In the original work, it was also during this period that Li Xunhuan unconditionally agreed to Lu Fengxian, letting Lu Fengxian go to eradicate Lin Xian'er, but Lu Fengxian fell straight into it, and Lin Lingling was also beaten to death.

Now Li Xunhuan thought Gu Qing was not bad and wanted Gu Qing to come and save A'fei.

"Does this matter include letting Lin Shiyin go?"

Gu Qing brought up the past again.

Li Xunhuan was numb.
