Chapter 73 Jealousy and villainy!
"Ah."

Xia Xiuxue calmed down and said, "You are..."

"Oh, I have something to ask Mr. Chen."

Gu Yuan said half-truthfully.

"Mr. Chen?"

Xia Xiuxue was a little surprised, and her eyes changed slightly when she looked at Gu Yuan.

Naturally, she knew something about Mr. Chen's identity and background.

This person's identity is very important. She is an inner disciple of Yaowang Mountain. Even her father has to treat her politely.

Even when she first knew this man's identity, she tried to show her goodwill to him. However, Mr. Chen was indifferent to everyone, including her, and looked lazy and he never showed any interest in anyone.

The fact that Gu Yuanneng came specially to ask questions and stayed for a while as usual without being kicked out was enough to explain several things.

Could it be because Gu Yuan has the gift of strong bones and flexible tendons?

But no matter what, since Gu Yuan is valued by Mr. Chen, his weight is different from before.

At least I can't look at him the same way as before!
Xia Xiuxue's mind flashed with some thoughts, but she smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Chen's situation is special, so it's inconvenient for him to be disturbed too much. If you encounter any problems in the future, as long as they are not serious, you can come and ask me."

"Okay, thank you, Miss Third."

Gu Yuan was keenly aware of the change in the girl's attitude. It was simply because she realized that Old Man Chen valued him, so she showed more kindness towards him.

However, although she is only a teenage girl, it has become her instinct to judge people by their taste and win their hearts. She is very precocious psychologically, which is really lamentable.

However, when Yang Jianfei heard what Xia Xiuxue said, he immediately misunderstood and thought about it in the wrong way.

He had also heard that Gu Yuan had been examined for his innate strength and was found to have a natural talent of iron bones and flexible tendons, and that he was valued by the Pavilion Master and others.

This made him, who already disliked Gu Yuan, even more jealous and unbalanced towards Gu Yuan!
Why? !

How could a mere country bumpkin possess such a gift of iron bones and flexible tendons?!

This guy doesn't deserve it at all!
On the contrary, he, who came from a wealthy family and had a good status, was far less talented than the other person. This was unacceptable to him as he always thought highly of himself and considered himself extraordinary.

Now, Xia Xiuxue, who had been pursuing Gu Yuan for a long time without success, seemed to be quite proactive and enthusiastic towards him. This made the jealousy in his heart surge like a small worm, and began to gnaw at his already limited rationality.

He couldn't help it any longer, and said in a sour tone:

"Xiuxue, why are you bothering with him? He's just a country bumpkin, not worth wasting your time."

"I know you've been stuck in a swordsmanship bottleneck lately. My family has a collection of fragments of a superior swordsmanship technique, the 'Double-Edged Sword', which is quite similar to the 'Flying Bird Feather Wing Sword' you're practicing. How about I get it for you tomorrow?"

Hearing this, Xia Xiuxue's smile suddenly froze on her face.

She looked at Yang Jianfei in disbelief, and suddenly felt that the person in front of her was so strange!
Of course she knew what Yang Jianfei was thinking.

Although she had always looked down on the other party, the Yang family was quite powerful and was valued by her father, so she needed to win them over and did not want to offend them too much, so she politely declined several times.

However, Yang Jianfei didn't know if he was pretending not to understand, and he kept pestering her.

Today the other party bothered her again about some trivial matters, which made her quite annoyed.

After hearing this, Xia Xiuxue felt that Yang Jianfei was unreasonable. He was jealous of Gu Yuan and even spoke ill of him!

A girl always has fantasies about her other half. Even if her future husband is not a gentle and modest gentleman, he should at least be well-educated and well-mannered, right?
Yang Jianfei's despicable behavior made her completely disgusted and she lost all patience.

"You should keep the Double-Edged Blade for yourself. Also, Brother Yang, I think you misunderstood. There's nothing between Gu Yuan and me! Besides, even if there is, it has nothing to do with you, and it's not a reason for you to casually belittle others." Xia Xiuxue's pretty face turned cold, and she said coldly:
"Also, I'm not familiar with you, so please call me Third Miss from now on!"

After saying that, she left without caring about his ugly face which turned blue and red.

Only Yang Jianfei and Gu Yuan were left there.

"Young Master Yang, I, a peasant, have better talent than you, and am even more favored by the Third Miss. You must be very upset, right?"

Gu Yuan said sarcastically with a smile.

In my heart, I actually look down on this guy.

I didn't provoke you, why are you scolding me?!

So by belittling me, you can show your excellence?

It would be fine if he just had no ability and couldn't catch up with women, but he was also narrow-minded, always taking his anger and hatred out on others, never thinking about his own mistakes, and unable to see his own position clearly. It was really ridiculous and hateful!

"Boy, don't be so proud!"

Hearing this, Yang Jianfei's eyes turned red, and he stared at Gu Yuan intently, his face distorted as he said:
"It won't be long before I make you understand that the gap between you and me can't be bridged by mere talent!"

In his opinion, the reason why Gu Yuan was favored and valued by the Pavilion Master, Xia Xiuxue and others was because Gu Yuan was gifted with strong bones and flexible tendons.

But no matter how good your talent is, it only means you have high potential.

So what if I'm a genius?

A living genius is a genius; a dead genius is just a pile of rotten meat!
Gu Yuan was born into a mountain family and has no background at all. Wouldn't it be easy for him to control him?
What this means is that you are planning to find a way to take revenge on me... Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows and had a plan in mind.

He knew that it was impossible to reason with such a person, so he ignored this mad dog and turned around and left.

Seeing Gu Yuan's departing back, a hint of viciousness flashed in Yang Jianfei's eyes.

"Hmph! You, a mere bastard born in a mud pit, dare to try to climb over my head... I will make you regret it!"

……

In the next few days, Gu Yuan devoted himself to cultivation.

He was currently learning a wide variety of martial arts, including "Golden Snake Swallowing Yuan Gong", "Black Turtle Hiding Armor Gong", "Spirit Snake Sword Technique", "Willow Catkin Sword Technique", "Snake Step", "Big Stone Smashing Hand", "Yinfeng Knife", etc.

It takes a lot of time to practice each martial art.

Time was limited, so Gu Yuan focused on practicing the "Golden Snake Swallowing Yuan Gong" and "Black Turtle Hiding Armor Gong", as well as the "Snake Step" and two sword techniques.

Because of his two talents, "Snake Coil" and "Turtle Breath", although he practiced several martial arts at the same time, his progress was not slow but rather rapid.

Whether it is bone training or horizontal training, the daily progress can basically be seen and touched.

That afternoon, the sky was gloomy, the wind was howling, and it seemed like it was going to snow.

As usual, Gu Yuan strengthened his qi and blood, strengthened his bones, warmed his whole body, and then began to practice swordsmanship.

After doing this, he took down a package from the beam, which contained a long knife, several sets of clothes, and some bottles and jars.

After dressing up carefully, he went out.
