Mu Yun was about to explain the whole story when he heard Gu Xiaoting smile lightly and say, "No need, I'll find out once I try."
After saying that, he stretched out his long arm and directly grabbed Mu Yun's shoulder. However, the momentum of this move was very slow, and there was no potential in it. To say that he was unprepared, it was really a bit forced.
Although Mu Yun has little experience in the martial arts world, because he has encountered many life-and-death dangers recently, after repeated training, his vigilance is no less than that of a veteran martial artist. At this time, he didn't have any panic in his heart, so he had to take advantage of the opportunity to block the opponent's offensive.
But at the moment when he was about to move, Mu Yun suddenly realized that Gu Xiaoting's move was hidden in mystery. There were already many powerful back-up moves inside, just waiting for the opponent to jump into the trap on his own.
Mu Yun was taken aback, and he no longer dared to look down upon him. He was about to use the Four Ultimate Mysterious Skills to counter him, but then he felt confused again.
Just because Gu Xiaoting's move was ethereal and light, just like the moon in the water or the flowers in the mirror, he had no idea where its power came from and where it would go.
All the wonderful tricks that Mu Yun had practiced diligently on weekdays seemed to be of no use at this moment, and they were just showing his own flaws.
If he was just shocked a moment ago, now he was filled with endless horror. Mu Yun made a decisive decision and used Yun Yi Ba Wu to evade the enemy's edge.
However, at this moment, Mu Yun suddenly felt that his whole body was like a trap. The dense real power was intertwined vertically and horizontally, leaving no room for movement. How could he be allowed to escape easily?
Mu Yun suddenly broke out in cold sweat, and in a trance, he seemed to have returned to the sword duel between Di Cangqiong and Sima Yu that day. Even though he exhausted his mind, the gap in strength was difficult to close, and he could only give up all thoughts and resign himself to his fate.
Before he could react, Gu Xiaoting's palm was already on Mu Yun's shoulder. Fortunately, he only patted him twice, and said with a half-smile: "My skills are quite good, and my eloquence is not bad. No wonder he is so calm." , Mr. Gu is all ears now, I dare to ask you what is the connection between you and the master here?"
Mu Yun woke up from a dream. For a moment, he felt that his limbs were stiff and his throat felt dry. He paused for a moment and then clasped his fists in salute and said, "Senior is able to communicate with the gods, but I am far behind. I wonder if you can tell me the origin?"
Gu Xiaoting raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly: "Brother, that's too much. How virtuous and capable is Gu? He doesn't deserve such high praise."
Mu Yun hit a soft nail, hesitating and said calmly: "Then I dare to ask senior, are you a resident of Xuanming Town?"
Gu Xiaoting blinked, coughed slightly and said: "There are protective formations both inside and outside Xuanming Town. Besides, it is naturally difficult for outsiders to invade in broad daylight."
Mu Yun felt a sudden feeling in his heart, and he suddenly felt a little uneasy. When Gu Xiaoting saw this, he smiled slightly and said, "What's wrong, little brother? Is it possible that you have something in your way that you can't tell me clearly?"
Mu Yun knew that he couldn't deal with it, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "I'm sorry, I just haven't figured out how to word it yet. Why don't you, senior, go to Xuantian Sword Pavilion with me, and someone will naturally explain it to you."
Gu Xiaoting murmured slightly, raised his hand and said, "Then it's as I wish, you can take the first step."
Mu Yun smiled bitterly to himself, cupped his fists and saluted, then turned around and headed towards the Hanging Sky Sword Pavilion on the cliff. Gu Xiaoting followed closely behind without saying a word.
The two's light skills were extraordinary, and it only took a moment for them to arrive in front of the sword pavilion.
Mu Yun raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his temples. At first glance, he saw that Gu Xiaoting's expression was as usual, and he didn't seem to have any energy at all.
While Mu Yun was shocked, the uneasiness in his heart became even worse for a moment, and he clearly wanted to speak but stopped.
Gu Xiaoting saw that Mu Yun's confidence was lacking, and he said in an increasingly unpredictable manner: "Brother, please lead the way. Gu is really impatient. Let's see who it is, who knows the origin between you and the master here."
Mu Yunqiang calmed himself down and called out in a loud voice: "May I ask if Senior Meng is here? It's really helpless for me to leave and come back. I hope senior will take the time to see you."
After a moment, the door opened slightly, and when the graceful and graceful figure appeared, a cold voice was heard: "Young people don't know how to accept things when they are good, so why don't you still--"
There was a sudden pause in the middle of the sentence. Meng Guichan's soft eyes fell on Gu Xiaoting. Finally, the anger on his face turned into joy. He saluted and said with a smile: "You are back."
When Mu Yun heard the word "come back", he suddenly felt stars in his eyes. Although he had had a vague premonition for a long time, now that it was confirmed with his own ears, his face was still burning with embarrassment. I regret that I shouldn't have spoken nonsense and talked about my "origin" in front of my master. This is really ridiculous.
Mu Yun felt inexplicably frightened, but Gu Xiaoting ignored him and only said to Meng Guichan: "Aunt Meng is here. The sword pavilion is really shining today, so let Gu Xiaoting show his friendship as a landlord and throw a banquet in his honor." how?"
Meng Guichan shook his head and said with a smile: "You are a person who only knows how to eat but not cook, and only knows how to spend but not make money. You talk about it as a feast, but in the end, don't you have to rely on my hard work?"
Gu Xiaoting laughed and said: "Aunt Meng knows me, but you have made this new young friend. It is very gratifying. Even if you work hard, it is natural, right?"
Meng Guichan knew what Gu Xiaoting meant, and said disapprovingly: "Don't try to bully me with your words. The prodigal son you raised will exploit your family property at a young age and use it to please the young heroes. If you are dissatisfied, Just teach yourself a lesson, but don’t falsely accuse me of borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha.”
Gu Xiaoting was startled and said: "Aunt Meng said this, could it be Lei'er doing something good?"
Meng Guichan turned to Mu Yun and said pointedly: "Yes, Lei'er has a close friendship with this Mu Shaoxia, and they even communicated with each other privately. As an outsider, I really can't say much, so I have to let it go."
Mu Yun was already in embarrassment, and now he was even more embarrassed. He knew that no matter how much he tried to defend himself, he was trying to cover up the truth. He simply changed his mind and handed the sword to Meng Guichan. He said with a feverish face: "Senior, your eyes are as bright as a torch. Junior Jian deserves to be punished, so I will return the jade intact to the sword pavilion."
When Meng Guichan saw this, he suddenly said: "Young man, why do you need to pretend to be stupid? The master is right in front of you, why do you need to return the sword to me?"
Mu Yun was stunned for a moment. He was really in a dilemma. Seeing this, Gu Xiaoting coughed and said, "Brother, don't be so impatient. I guess Lei'er is also in the sword pavilion at this moment, right?"
"Today, let's take advantage of Aunt Meng's favor. Let's take the opportunity to feast on our food. Let's have a drink and talk together when we're young. How about we elaborate on the origins between you and me?"
What Mu Yun was most afraid of hearing at this moment was the word "origin". When his face was red and his ears were hot, only Nono should be the one.
When Meng Guichan heard Gu Xiaoting talking to himself, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said, "You are relying on me as soon as you come back. Are you so confident?"
Gu Xiaoting smiled and said, "I said earlier that Aunt Meng doesn't need to repay her for saving her life, but you have to persist, so who can you blame?"
Meng Guichan couldn't help but raised his forehead and said: "That's all, I can't owe you a debt of gratitude after all. You'd better always cherish it in the future, otherwise if I really repay the favor of saving my life, I will take back this sword pavilion."
As Gu Xiaoting stepped into the sword pavilion, he looked at each other for a moment and had a tacit understanding for many years, which turned into a knowing smile.
