"It's alright."

Gu Yun looked at her, his gaze becoming serious.

"Wanyin, I've stayed here today because I have a few things I need to tell you clearly."

Su Wanyin suddenly looked up, her beautiful eyes flashing with a determined light, even with a resolute air of facing death.

"My benefactor, please speak! Wanyin knows that you must have suffered a lot of grievances at Hanyue Palace! That Ice and Snow Sword Master cultivates the Supreme Forgetfulness of Emotions, so his temperament must be cold and domineering. You deliberately wore a mask and acted fierce to drive me away outside the mountain gate in order to protect me."

Su Wanyin stepped forward, grabbed Gu Yun's hand, and said urgently.

"My benefactor, Wan Yin is now a Golden Core cultivator, and the Golden Sun Sect is willing to do everything in its power to help me! Wan Yin is not afraid of the Cold Moon Palace! Please come with me, and Wan Yin will definitely protect you and never let Mo Qianyan bully you in the slightest again!"

Gu Yun's lips twitched violently.

This brat's imagination is practically incurable; it's a disease that can't be cured even across timelines.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Gu Yun flicked his finger and gave Su Wanyin a sharp rap on the forehead with a loud thud.

"Ouch!"

Su Wanyin covered her forehead, looking at Gu Yun with a wronged expression.

"What kind of nonsense are you thinking about all day long in that little head of yours?"

Gu Yun was both amused and exasperated. He placed his hands on Su Wanyin's shoulders, looked directly into her eyes, and said, word by word.

"Listen to me carefully! First of all, I, Gu Yun, have not suffered any grievances in Hanyue Palace! Mo Qianyan is my wife, and she is neither cold-hearted nor domineering. On the contrary, she lives a life of extreme arrogance and comfort while being a kept woman on Taishang Jueqing Peak!"

Su Wanyin was stunned.

"second!"

Gu Yun emphasized her words.

"The day I wore a mask and kicked your boat, it was indeed to protect you, but not because I was afraid Qianyan would kill you. It was because I was afraid she'd get jealous and go berserk, and skin me alive! I'm henpecked, you understand?!"

Gu Yun is probably the only one in the entire Cangbei Spirit Realm who can say the words "henpecked" with such confidence and conviction.

"Wife, henpeck?"

Su Wanyin's cherry lips parted slightly, as if she had been struck by lightning, her worldview shattered.

In her heart, he was as majestic as a god, but he was actually an extreme wife-protecting maniac who wore a mask and kicked his wife away because he was afraid she would get jealous.

Seeing Su Wanyin's adorable, worldview-shattering expression, Gu Yun sighed and finally softened his tone.

"Wan Yin."

Gu Yun looked at her, his eyes so deep they seemed to see through time and space.

"Saving you thirty-one years ago was an act of kindness on my part. But the reason I didn't run away today is because I saw your perseverance and recognized your loyalty and sense of justice."

There are some things you don't need to know.

"Just remember this."

Gu Yun reached out and, just like when she was a thirteen-year-old girl, vigorously ruffled Su Wanyin's hair, making her hair bun a little messy.

"From today onwards, you no longer need to search the world for me to repay your kindness, nor do you need to imagine what grievances I have suffered."

"I, Gu Yun, will no longer keep people at arm's length."

Gu Yunchong gave a hearty and domineering smile.

"In the future, if you suffer any injustice outside or can't beat your enemies, come to Hanyue Palace anytime and give them my name."

"If Mo Qianyan asks, just call me Big Brother. If she dares to kill you..."

Gu Yun stroked his chin and said defiantly.

"At worst, I'll kneel on two washboards when I get back, and that'll make sure you're safe!"

Listening to Gu Yun's crude yet extremely sincere words.

Su Wanyin's eyes reddened again.

But this time, it wasn't a feeling of being wronged, but rather an unprecedented sense of peace.

My benefactor finally accepted me and stopped seeing me as just a passerby.

"Big brother."

Su Wanyin burst into laughter through her tears.

That smile was like a blooming snow lotus, absolutely beautiful.

"Wanyin has remembered this. From now on, if anyone dares to mess with Wanyin, Wanyin will go to Hanyue Palace to get Big Brother's back!"

"That's more like it!"

Gu Yun laughed heartily, and the huge boulder that had been hanging over his heart due to the cause and effect of time and space finally fell to the ground.

Having resolved her inner conflict, Gu Yun felt her mind clear and her blood and qi flowed much more smoothly.

He looked up at the sky.

"Damn it! I've been out for too long. If Qianyan sends someone looking for me, she'll definitely tear Jueqing Peak down!"

Gu Yun's expression changed, and he quickly waved to Su Wanyin.

"Girl, be careful on your way back. I need to hurry back and settle the accounts!"

After saying that, Gu Yun stomped his foot hard, and a loud bang caused a shockwave to explode.

He transformed into a bolt of lightning, rushing headlong towards the direction of the Cold Moon Palace.

"Brother, take care!"

Standing atop the cliff, Su Wanyin looked at the hurried and somewhat disheveled figure and couldn't help but chuckle.

Then, a sly glint flashed in her eyes.

"Since my elder brother said that if I have been wronged, I can go to Hanyue Palace to find him."

Su Wanyin touched her chin.

"Then I will visit my sister-in-law at Hanyue Palace tomorrow."

Gu Yun, who was running wildly through the clouds, suddenly sneezed loudly without warning, and a chill ran down his back.

"Damn it, does that Yin Sha Old Demon have accomplices plotting against me?"

Gu Yun shook his head, pushed his speed to the limit, and disappeared into the horizon.

Supreme Heartless Peak.

As dawn breaks and the snow begins to fall...

Swish.

Gu Yun tiptoed into the courtyard, exhaled a long breath of white air, and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

"This matter has finally been settled."

He looked around and confirmed that the array in the bedroom was not fluctuating, so Mo Qianyan should still be sleeping. Only then did he feel relieved.

However, he had just turned around.

"Father, where did you crawl out of so early in the morning? Why do you smell so earthy?"

Gu Chengfeng was seen squatting in the corner of the yard, shirtless.

He held a piece of black iron essence in his hand, teasing the barking, yellowish-brown puppy while looking at him with a suspicious expression.

"You brat, stop meddling in adults' affairs!"

Gu Yun put on a stern face, walked over and slapped Gu Chengfeng on the back of the head.

He smoothly changed the subject: "The second level of the 'Nine Slashes of Prison Suppression,' the 'Sea-Severing Technique,' that I asked you to study, have you figured out anything? Go, pick up that black sword and swing it a hundred times, or you won't get breakfast today!"

"Huh? Another swing?"

With a bitter expression, Gu Chengfeng had no choice but to obediently pull out the black sword that weighed several thousand pounds.

Strangely enough, this kid can also control the weight of the sword.

Gu Yun then leisurely went to the spiritual spring behind the mountain to wash away the dust of his journey and changed into a clean blue robe.

When he returned to his bedchamber feeling refreshed, Mo Qianyan had just finished washing up.

She was dressed in a snow-white gown, her black hair flowing like a waterfall. When she saw Gu Yun, a faint tenderness appeared in her eyes.

"He's been nowhere to be seen since early morning. Did he go off to train the wind again?"

"That kid's tough and thick-skinned; if you don't beat him every day, he'll be climbing on the roof and tearing off the tiles."

Gu Yun stepped forward and naturally put his arm around Mo Qianyan's slender waist, then whispered something in her ear.

"How was your night, Madam?"

Mo Qianyan rolled her eyes at him, about to speak.

Clang, clang, clang.

Suddenly, three melodious and clear welcoming bells rang out from the main peak of Hanyue Palace.

This is the status of a distinguished guest who has arrived and whose cultivation level is at least at the Golden Core stage.

Immediately afterwards, a female steward hurriedly landed on her sword outside Jueqing Peak, knelt on one knee, and spoke with a strange tension in her voice.

"Reporting to Palace Master and Grand Elder! Su Wanyin, the Sunset Fairy of the Golden Sun Sect, has come to pay a visit!"

Mo Qianyan frowned slightly: "Su Wanyin? Didn't she just cause a scene outside the mountain gate? Why is she here again today?"

The female deacon swallowed hard, lowered her head, and her voice trembled even more.

"Reporting to the Palace Master, Fairy Su did not bring her portrait today. She said that it was all a misunderstanding before, and that she came today specifically to pay her respects to her sworn brother, and also to pay her respects to her sister-in-law."

This statement came out.

The temperature on Heartbreak Peak suddenly dropped to freezing!

In the courtyard, Gu Chengfeng, who was wielding a black sword and sweating profusely, suddenly shivered and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Why is it suddenly so cold? Did my dad's stepsister come to visit?"

Inside the sleeping quarters.

Gu Yun's arm around Mo Qianyan's waist froze instantly.

He felt a chill run down his spine, straight to the top of his head!

"Sworn brotherhood?"

Mo Qianyan slowly turned her head, her clear eyes turning cold.

She looked at Gu Yun, her voice light and airy, yet it sent chills down one's spine.

"Gu Yun, when did you find such a beautiful and lovely younger sister? How come I, as her sister-in-law, had no idea?"
