Gu Yuan looked at the guard who suddenly stopped and asked doubtfully, "Is there something wrong with this young man?"

Gu Yuan was puzzled. He had already paid him the money, so why did he stop? Could it be that he wanted to take the money without doing the work?

The guard retracted his foot and returned to his original position. He looked at Gu Yuan and said with a smile, "My friend, what are you doing in our Gu family?"

Gu Yuan replied, "I just said that I came here to look for Miss Gu Ting. I hope you can help inform her that I have something to ask her. We knew each other before."

The guard suddenly sneered and said, "My friend, are you sure you know our Miss Gu Ting? Our Miss Gu Ting is the daughter of the clan leader, a treasure of our Gu family! Do you really know her?"

The guard looked Gu Yuan up and down. Gu Yuan didn't have any requirements for his clothes, and what he wore was not very eye-catching, just ordinary clothes.

The guard looked Gu Yuan up and down, and suddenly said sarcastically, "My friend, it's not that I look down on you, but the way you're dressed doesn't make you look like someone who would know our young lady. Are you trying to use this as an excuse to break into our Gu family and do some petty theft? This kind of thing is not uncommon. I once encountered a guy who claimed to know our young lady and broke into our Gu family to steal. You should know what happened to him after he was discovered. His legs and feet were broken and he was thrown out. Now it's unknown whether he is dead or alive. My brother, if you have this idea, I advise you to give up. Our young lady Gu Ting is not known to everyone. Remember to find a more reasonable excuse next time, so that maybe I can help you inform her."

Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Young man, you think too much. I really know Miss Gu Ting from your family. Could you please go in and inform her for me? If anything really happens, I will take all the responsibility. Is that okay?"

The guard continued with a sneer, "I advise you to get out of here right away. Don't just stand there. With your shabby appearance, you actually claim to know our Miss Gu Ting. Do you think you're worthy?"

Gu Yuan's expression turned a little ugly. He asked, "What does this mean?"

The guard tapped Gu Yuan's shoulder and said, "Don't you understand what I'm saying? You look so shabby that you're not worthy of knowing our young lady. You just want to break into our Gu family and do some petty theft. Get out of here now, and don't make me lay a hand on you."

Gu Yuan suddenly laughed. He was really amused by this guard.

The guard continued, "You look shabby, and you don't look like someone famous. So stop pretending. Your claim of knowing Miss Gu Ting is pure nonsense. Get out of here now."

Gu Yuan looked at him and asked, "If that's the case, then why did you take my money? You're taking my money but not doing anything?"

The guard glared at him and asked, "What did you say? Who said I took your money? When did you give me any money? I didn't see any money. Don't talk nonsense, or else don't blame me for being rude to you."

Gu Yuan was completely amused by this guy's behavior. It seemed like he wanted to take his money but didn't want to do anything.

He looked at him with a smile and asked, "Young man, are you sure you're serious about what you just said? I'll give you one more chance to repeat what you just said. I'll give you two choices. First, go in now and announce that I'm here to visit your young lady. Say my name is Gu Yuan. Second, you don't have to go, but I'll break your legs. Whichever you choose."

The guard's face immediately turned cold, and he roared, "How dare you! Someone like you dare to meet our young lady? If you have the foresight, get out of here right now! Don't force me to attack you, or I'll make you regret it."

Gu Yuan sneered, grabbed the guard's shoulder, and punched the guard in the stomach. His fist was covered with spiritual energy, and this punch made the guard bend over and fall to the ground in pain. His face turned pale in an instant and he could not get up again.

The other man looked at his companion lying on the ground, his face changed drastically, and he rushed forward in an instant. Gu Yuan raised his foot and kicked out, hitting the guard on the head with a whip kick, saying: "You are so shameless! You took my money and still don't want to do the job. I think you are just asking for a beating!"

The second guard fell to the ground with a look of fear on his face. It turned out that the guy in front of him was actually a spiritual cultivator.

They hadn't expected Gu Yuan to be a spiritual cultivator. With a hint of fear in his eyes, he asked, "Who on earth are you? You actually attacked us. Aren't you afraid of being held accountable by our Gu family?"

Gu Yuan sneered. They were indeed a bunch of guys who relied on the power of others. The first thing they did after being beaten was to use the Gu family's reputation as a pretext.

He said, "Who do you think you are? Just because you're a dog slave, you think you're worthy enough to let the Gu family target me? You took my money and did my job honestly, but you took my money and didn't do the job. I can break your legs. Get out! Tell me right now. Say Gu Yuan is visiting and ask Gu Ting to come out."

Gu Yuan said to the guard without any hesitation. The guard's face turned pale and he stood up hurriedly. "Wait here!"

Then he hurriedly ran into the ancient mansion.

Gu Yuan sneered, what a shameless guy! Then he walked down and came to Lei Zhan's side.

Seeing Gu Yuan suddenly attack, Lei Zhan asked curiously, "What happened? Why did he suddenly attack those two little guards?"

Gu Yuan clapped his hands and said, "These two guys took my money but didn't do anything for me. I told them to go in and report it, but they didn't even bother. In this case, I have no choice but to take action against them."

Lei Zhan laughed and said, "I didn't expect such a thing to happen. They are simply blind. They dared to steal Brother Yuangu's money. They are really asking for a beating. These people are just cheap bones."

"that is!"

Gu Yuan nodded and said, "Wait here for a while. That guy has gone in to report. I think he should be back in a while."

Gu Yuan and Lei Zhan stood outside and waited for a while. Not long after, they saw a figure running out of the mansion in a hurry.

It was Gu Ting's figure.

Gu Ting looked around but didn't see the figure she expected to see. She frowned and asked the people around her, "Where is the person you just mentioned? Why didn't I see him?"
