Yin Su Su’s pupils constricted, and she didn’t say anything. She subconsciously tightened the plain white handkerchief hidden in her sleeve.
Gu Han Yuan didn’t mind. He believed that Yin Su Su wouldn’t refuse.
Deep into the night, at the hour of the child.
Yin Su Su arrived at the agreed upon location.
She saw Gu Han Yuan with his back to her, looking up at the moon in the sky.
The moon tonight was bright and the stars were sparse. The starlight seemed to fall on Gu Han Yuan like a curtain, his tall figure and ethereal temperament, even in the simple Wudang third-generation disciple’s clothing, made him look like a celestial being.
Yin Su Su looked at Gu Han Yuan’s back and her heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
After finally calming her emotions, she slowly spoke.
“I’m here.”
“You shouldn’t have come.”
Yin Su Su looked at him with a blank expression, clearly not understanding Gu Han Yuan’s joke.
But she still responded:
“You know I shouldn’t have come, yet you still called me here.”
Gu Han Yuan listened to Yin Su Su’s reply and felt a sense of boredom.
Even hearing a “Should I leave then?” would be better.
Once again realizing the reality of being transmigrated, he felt a strange sense of loneliness.
Yin Su Su sensed the change in Gu Han Yuan’s temperament.
Although she didn’t know the reason, she felt a heavy weight in her heart.
“Forget it, you wouldn’t understand anyway. I know you have a lot of questions. Ask them.”
Gu Han Yuan turned around to face Yin Su Su.
Seeing Yin Su Su change into a burgundy purple long dress, her hair silky smooth, and even a light touch of makeup on her face, his mood instantly improved.
Yin Su Su also noticed Gu Han Yuan’s scrutinizing gaze, and she felt a slight blush on her face.
She didn’t know why she had tidied herself up, even taking a bath and putting on makeup.
However, the questions in her heart still prevailed. She opened her mouth and asked:
“What is your relationship with Wu Tian?”
“We have no relationship. It’s just a bit of cooperation.”
Gu Han Yuan would naturally not admit that Wu Tian was his split soul. A cooperative relationship was enough explanation.
Yin Su Su’s expression turned slightly worse.
“Then what about the Xuan Ming Er Lao?”
“They have nothing to do with this. Xuan Ming Er Lao are from the Ru Yang Wang Fu of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty. You know why they’re taking Zhang Wu Ji, right?”
“Ru Yang Wang Fu!”
Yin Su Su instantly understood Xuan Ming Er Lao’s purpose. Although it had nothing to do with Gu Han Yuan, her expression was still not good. After all, Zhang Wu Ji was currently suffering from the cold poison, and his life was in danger.
“Right, the Tu Long Dao! Did Xie Da Ge really get killed by Wu Tian?”
In fact, Yin Su Su didn’t quite believe this. After all, she and Zhang Cui Shan had only returned to the Central Plains not long ago.
Without knowing the way, finding the location of Ice and Fire Island in the vast ocean was more difficult than ascending to heaven. It simply couldn’t be done within a few months.
Gu Han Yuan didn’t intend to hide anything and spoke frankly:
“It’s fake. The Dragon-Slaying Saber is also a fake. Want to take a look?”
“A fake Dragon-Slaying Saber? On you?”
Yin Su Su was a bit surprised. After all, she was there at the time. As someone familiar with the Dragon-Slaying Saber, she hadn’t noticed anything about it that didn’t seem genuine.
Gu Han Yuan pretended to take the fake Dragon-Slaying Saber from behind a tree, but in reality, he took it out of the system’s storage space.
The storage space was provided by the system. He discovered it a few days ago and had placed Wu Tian’s required attire in the storage space.
With the system’s storage space, Gu Han Yuan might be able to take on the role of a Dao Sheng in the future.
Just touching something would allow him to take it. If he wasn’t ashamed of himself, he could even instantly take away a person’s clothes.
Yun Zhong He, Tian Bo Guang, and the like were simply weak compared to him.
But this kind of thing should be done with a different identity, it was too shameless, too uncool.
He heard that Si Kong Zhai Xing was called the “King of Thieves.” It would be interesting to steal something from him sometime.
Gu Han Yuan handed the fake Dragon-Slaying Saber to Yin Su Su.
Yin Su Su carefully examined it by the moonlight. She found that it was completely identical in appearance, even the weight was almost the same.
Her heart moved. She took out a mosquito-whisker needle and stuck it on the fake Dragon-Slaying Saber.
She saw the mosquito-whisker needle slide straight off.
It was definitely not the real Dragon-Slaying Saber.
Because the real Dragon-Slaying Saber had magnetism, it could attract all hidden weapons in the world.
Gu Han Yuan was careful and caught the mosquito-whisker needle before it fell to the ground.
It would be troublesome if it accidentally pricked her later.
Yin Su Su was initially puzzled, but then instantly realized. Holding back her heart’s racing, she rolled her eyes at Gu Han Yuan.
That look was filled with indescribable charm and allure.
Gu Han Yuan almost couldn’t hold back. But the timing wasn’t right yet. He had to wait a bit longer.
Although Yin Su Su was teased again, she was still relieved to hear that Xie Xun wasn’t dead.
She was slightly afraid of the blazing fire that flashed in Gu Han Yuan’s eyes. She quickly thought of an excuse for herself.
“You said you would help me rescue Wu Ji, and you haven’t kept your promise.”
Gu Han Yuan glanced at her with a cold expression.
“If Wu Tian hadn’t brought out the Dragon-Slaying Saber, how could he have lured out Xuan Ming Er Lao? As long as Xuan Ming Er Lao appear, Zhang San Feng will be able to save Zhang Wu Ji. I promised to help you rescue Zhang Wu Ji, but I didn’t say that I would personally rescue him, and I didn’t say that I would guarantee his safety.”
Yin Su Su knew Gu Han Yuan was right, but she was a little unwilling and very worried about Zhang Wu Ji’s cold poison.
Yin Su Su hesitated for a moment and still asked:
“Why are you cooperating with Wu Tian? He looks very dangerous.”
Gu Han Yuan put away his cold expression, looking Yin Su Su up and down. When he made her feel a little annoyed, he finally replied:
“Of course it’s because we both get what we want.”
Yin Su Su was stunned at first, then she remembered Gu Han Yuan’s scrutinizing gaze and reacted. Her face flushed red as she teased him.
“Your need is to lust after my body, isn’t it?”
She was actually a little shy, like a young girl.
“What else? I’m not interested in the Dragon-Slaying Saber. What else on you do I need?”
Gu Han Yuan spoke frankly, making Yin Su Su even more embarrassed.
