Within Yuxu Sect.
After Gu Xingyun appeared, the noisy group gathered around him in tacit understanding.
Over the past year or so, Gu Xingyun has been in frequent contact with them, and almost every sect has received his help.
Palace Master Murong was busy teaching storytelling to the two disciples who had been sent over earlier, and had no time to come over to take a seat, so he instructed his son to come over.
Murong Xuanlang was squeezed among a group of elders, looking embarrassed.
Gu Xingyun took the initiative to greet him, and then signaled everyone to disperse.
"The banquet will officially begin tomorrow. We have already arranged accommodations, and there are disciples leading the way everywhere. If you are tired, you can go and rest now."
No one responded to this, and everyone waved their hands in rejection: "I'm not tired, I don't need to rest."
"I came all this way here, how could I waste time resting? Nephew Gu, I just noticed that your house is a bit shabby. Since I have nothing to do, I'll help you fix it up."
"My dear nephew, I saw that your dining hall was quite busy, so I asked my apprentice to bring some people to support you. Their cooking skills are first-class."
"Xingyun, I just saw your young disciples from the Yuxu Sect busy setting up the venue over there, so I asked my disciples to go over and help. If there's anything else you need, just let me know."
"My dear nephew, I've come all this way here, and I'm embarrassed to come empty-handed. I've prepared some gifts for you and your fellow apprentices. Here, take them. You're welcome."
?
Is this possible?
Everyone turned around at once and saw Master Liao with a smile on his face.
It was rare for him to receive so many looks, so he straightened his back proudly and tried to get closer.
"Our Xu'er keeps talking about you, saying that he didn't have time to thank you properly for saving his life..."
Palace Master Murong, who had just squeezed in, stared at him with wide eyes.
Sect Leader Liao continued to talk: "If you have time, come visit me. I'll ask Xu'er to treat you well..."
He couldn't wait to show his closeness and prove that they had a good relationship with Gu Xingyun and Yuxu Sect, and he had to mention his good disciple in every sentence.
He had barely finished speaking when he heard Palace Master Murong raise his voice and shout, "Sect Master Yan—quickly, quickly, quickly! Come quickly! Someone is trying to poach you!"
Yan Huailiu, who had just returned and was walking with his head down, looked annoyed, was stunned by the shout.
The eyes of the people who were still thinking about how to respond suddenly lit up, and they tacitly made way for Yan Huailiu.
He had an expression of watching a show, just waiting for Yan Huailiu to get angry and punch Master Liao in the face.
Bah, everyone is flattering, but you have to be different!
Sect Leader Liao's face flushed with anger. "You, you're talking nonsense! You're slandering me!"
Palace Master Murong held her big belly and said, "Ah? You dare to mention it but not admit it? Didn't you say that your idiot disciple likes Gu Xianxi? Everyone heard it. Who wronged you?"
"You, you, you..." Sect Leader Liao pointed at him and gasped.
"What do you mean by 'I'? You even tried to bribe Sect Master Yan's other disciples with gifts. It's simply... Alas, I am truly ashamed of your behavior."
When it comes to talking, no one can match Palace Master Murong.
Gu Xingyun didn't listen to what they were saying at all. He quickly walked up to Yan Huailiu and reached out to help him straighten his crooked hairpin: "Master, have you eaten yet?"
Yan Huailiu came to his senses and hummed. Gu Xingyun was blocking his view tightly, so he could only tilt his head to glance at the two people who were arguing.
"What corner are you digging?"
The sound was not loud, but loud enough for everyone to hear.
Sect Leader Liao immediately stopped and rushed over as fast as he could: "It's unfair, Sect Leader Yan, I didn't mean that..."
There are a lot of explanations, very noisy.
It took Yan Huailiu some time to remember who the Xu'er this person was talking about, and he waved his hand nonchalantly.
"No need to explain. If you can dig, then dig."
Not to mention using a hoe, even if he used explosives to blow it up ten times, his corner would still be as solid as a rock.
It is impossible for Gu Xingyun to like anyone other than him.
What’s more, he’s that idiot named Qiao.
His apprentice is not blind.
After staying in Qingguang Temple for a few days, Yan Huailiu has become somewhat indifferent to everything. He has other things in his mind and doesn't want to say much here.
Just a polite reminder: "Everyone, enjoy your meal and have fun. See you tomorrow."
Then he turned and left.
Gu Xingyun was about to chase after him, but after taking two steps, he saw that Yan Huailiu had no intention of looking back, so he stopped.
"Nephew Gu, I didn't mean that. This old man is just talking nonsense. Our Xu'er wouldn't dare to marry someone so high..."
Sect Leader Liao explained loudly.
Gu Xingyun turned around, smiled and nodded: "I know, Palace Master Murong is just joking, Master Liao, please don't mind."
He calmly resolved the conflict between several people and responded to the goodwill and greetings of a group of people in a measured manner.
Palace Master Murong, who was dragged out of the crowd by his own son with his mouth covered, struggled desperately. He finally pried his son's hand free and glared at him angrily: "What are you doing! You are getting more and more presumptuous."
Murong Xuanlang sighed helplessly: "Father, please, this is someone else's territory, please be quiet for two days and don't say anything nonsense to offend others."
Whenever he went out, he was worried that he would be put in a sack and beaten up by people from other sects.
"What nonsense are you talking about? It's Liao who's talking nonsense. I'm just protecting Sect Master Yan's feelings. You don't understand!"
Palace Master Murong was speaking with confidence, but when he saw that his son was about to lose his temper, he quickly changed his words.
"Well, alright, I'll go talk to your two junior brothers about the newly compiled storybook. They're really, really pissing me off. I've been here for so long without letting Sect Leader Yan hear it..."
He walked away muttering to himself. Murong Xuanlang held his forehead with his hand tiredly, waved to Gu Xingyun in the crowd, turned around and followed his father's footsteps.
It’s better to continue supervising from the side. There are too many people here. If that group of people join forces to beat his father up, it will be difficult to explain to the elders when he returns.
In a place where no one would disturb him, Yan Huailiu silently opened the barrier that had been sealed for a long time.
Ever since Jade Purity Master passed away, he has never come to his residence again.
Everything was still the same as it was before, with a box of snacks made by Jade Purity Master herself placed in the middle of the table.
But it was completely empty inside.
Yan Huailiu sat on the bed holding the box, took out the purple bead from his arms and put it in, and also put in some of the tea leaves that Master Chen Wu had given him.
"He must be giving it to Master. I don't like drinking old tea..."
"Master, I'm still alive, my junior brother is alive, my disciples are fine, the Yuxu Sect hasn't been destroyed, everyone is doing well..."
"It's just that you're gone."
Yan Huailiu lay down holding the box, staring at the somewhat worn curtains, and slowly blinked twice.
He murmured softly, "It's a bit unfair, so... I want to try my method and see if it works..."
