Chapter 296: Why is there so much trouble in this shabby place?
Jiang Lingyun knew that Gu Heng wanted to ask her for help, and Jian Xuan also told her.
Of course she was happy to help. After all, if she owed the other person a favor, she had to repay it.
Reputation among strong people is a very important thing. Sometimes the weight of a word is as heavy as heaven and earth. Although Jiang Lingyun rarely cares about things other than sword practice, she will not be careless about her own reputation.
It's just that she was a little confused.
Even she couldn't see through Master Gu's strength. Was there anything in the world that he couldn't accomplish?
If he can't do it, then I may not be able to do it myself.
Maybe.
Mr. Gu simply didn't want to do it himself, so he asked someone to do it. If that was the case, Jiang Lingyun didn't care who to beat.
There are very few people in this world who she can beat up seriously using both hands.
"Well..."
Gu Heng smiled awkwardly.
"Of course I can do this myself, but if I do that, my life will be affected. So, I have no choice but to shamelessly ask Sect Master Jiang for help."
That's actually part of the reason.
Indeed, the system has given him a lot of things now. If he uses any one of them, Yu Yinzi will be like a stink bug in front of him and can be easily stepped on to death.
But what then?
This guy has a powerful background.
If Gu Heng killed him, he couldn't guarantee that others wouldn't know about it. These nobles who came from powerful forces seemed to have some means to let their own family know that he had met with an unexpected accident.
If he kills the younger one, the older one will come to him with his whole family to settle the score...
To be honest, Gu Heng was not averse to killing people. He had killed people a long time ago, and he used such a lowly method as poisoning. After all, as a mortal, even if he wanted to live a leisurely life, sometimes it was not so easy.
But he was afraid of "collateral damage" happening to him.
Indeed, even if Qianyin Valley threw its entire force into avenging Yuyinzi in the end, a huge monster suddenly died at his hands, and Gu Heng became truly famous from then on.
Be known as a "strong man".
By then, his current life would be completely turned upside down.
Gu Heng himself doesn't really care. The system should help him no matter what. But what about the people around him?
Especially the little girl Qin Yiyao?
How could she accept that the mortal master she had lived with for so long was actually a "strong man" who could even wipe out supernatural forces, but still chose to keep her in a small city and live a mortal life every day?
Although thinking this way was a bit disrespectful of the little girl's trust in him, Gu Heng really didn't want her to accept such a "fact" all of a sudden.
Sometimes, things that happen too suddenly are hard to accept.
She is still young and had lived a hard life in the past. Gu Heng now wants her to continue to lead an ordinary life. Of course, he also has to find a way to allow her to practice, but Gu Heng plans to take it step by step.
At the very least, he needs to be able to practice so that the little girl can slowly accept the changes in her life, right?
Furthermore.
Gu Heng really didn't want to waste such a precious "temporary experience voucher" on trash like Yu Yinzi.He is not qualified yet.
After much deliberation, Gu Heng decided to ask Jiang Lingyun for help.
First, he asked her to meet Jian Xuan, and she admitted that she owed him a favor. It doesn't matter whether such connections are used sooner or later.
"I see..."
Jiang Lingyun nodded.
It is true.
Mr. Gu could take action, but he was worried that his reclusive life would be disrupted.
Although it sounds strange, Jiang Lingyun has seen many old weirdos who are similar to him, so she understands the thoughts of "hermits" like him, that is, a peaceful life is more important than anything else.
"Since Master Gu has said so, I will naturally do my best."
Jiang Lingyun agreed readily.
"In that case, I would like to thank Sect Master Jiang first."
Gu Heng bowed, then he took out six jars of his homemade wine and pushed them towards Jiang Lingyun, "My homemade wine is not expensive. Since Sect Master Jiang likes to drink it, I hope you will accept it as a token of your gratitude."
Jiang Lingyun glanced at the wine jar in front of her and immediately smiled.
Giving her four jars of wine as a thank you gift really won her heart. After all, she only loved three things: Jian Xuan, sword, and wine.
"So, who is Mr. Gu going to attack?"
She put the wine jar away.
"Yameko."
The smile on Jiang Lingyun's face froze for a moment.
Okay.
No wonder he took out six jars of wine. It turned out that he wanted her to kill the only precious son of the master of Qianyin Valley.
No need to think about it, if you kill him, that old man Yu Quzi will definitely go crazy.
After a moment, she raised her head with a cold look in her eyes: "May I ask you how that guy offended you?"
"Let me put it this way. He didn't provoke me. It's just that there's a girl whose life and property are threatened by that beast. I simply can't stand it."
Gu Heng smiled.
As for the rewards given by the system, he ignored them.
Anyway, Jiang Lingyun wouldn't believe in the existence of the system, right?
"The girl you're talking about...could she be the Liu family's talented musician, Liu Yu?"
Jiang Lingyun narrowed her eyes.
"Exactly."
After a while, she sighed.
I came to the Sun Flame Dynasty and was involved in so many things...
Could it be that the old fortune teller, Xuanji Shengzun, had already predicted it but didn't tell her at all?
