Chapter 95

Old friends meet.

Yue Yuan never thought it would be in such a manner.

Yang Guo was dressed in a yellow robe, with a massive black iron sword hanging across his waist. The long sword on his back, if not mistaken, should be the one from the tomb of Dugu Qiu Bai, including the black iron sword.

"Brother Yang!"

Although Yue Yuan was amazed by his appearance, he still showed a look of surprise and greeted him, "You, are you... alright now?"

"Fine!"

The brief answer was cold, quite different from the Yang Guo who used to be full of witty and angry remarks. After all, the events back then had a huge impact on Yang Guo.

"..."

Next to him, Li Mochou, the Immortal Red Snake, also looked at her junior with great surprise. The deep-seated hatred between them had almost disappeared, and now Li Mochou and Yang Guo no longer had any real mortal enmity.

Because, in Yang Guo's eyes, his mortal enemies were the Mongols, and Dharma King Jinlun.

Under Huang Rong's words, Yang Guo learned that his aunt Xiaolongnü had already died, dissipating in this world.

His gaze moved from Yue Yuan's face, but it did not linger on Li Mochou. He was afraid that seeing Li Mochou would remind him of his aunt.

"Daddy Fu is in the hall!"

Turning around, Yang Guo's cold words reached Yue Yuan's ears, and this sentence almost made Yue Yuan stumble. Even the Immortal Red Snake's face showed a hint of surprise.

Half a month ago.

Yue Yuan and his group heard about the wedding at the Guo residence in Xiangyang, where Yang Guo was marrying Guo Fu, the eldest daughter of Guo Jing.

At that time...

Yue Yuan, Li Mochou, Xiaolongnü, and Hong Lingbo were completely stunned.

Yang Guo had been missing for a long time, and Yue Yuan knew that he might have gone to Dugu Qiu Bai's tomb and had a great adventure. But he never expected that when Yang Guo reappeared, he would bring such news.

Yang Guo's marriage to Guo Fu in Xiangyang was a shock to Yue Yuan and the others.

Among them, Xiaolongnü was the most affected.

Xiaolongnü immediately spat blood and fainted, and Yue Yuan was busy treating her injuries, torn between laughter and tears.

At that time, the news seemed absurd to him.

Yes!

Absolutely absurd.

Even though Yue Yuan had guessed that he would agree to Guo Jing and Huang Rong's request, he never expected that Yang Guo's reemergence would bring such a turn of events. But upon reflection, he realized that this might have been expected.

After learning of Xiaolongnü's death, Yang Guo must have gone mad. Guo Jing would have restrained him, and with Huang Rong's sharp tongue, Yang Guo, who was at a loss, would have been calmed down.

This could solve Yang Guo's inappropriate love for Xiaolongnü, marry his daughter to Yang Guo, and resolve the issue with Yizhiping of the Quanzhen Sect. In theory, this was a threefold solution.

The reason Yang Guo married Guo Fu was likely due to a sense of giving up. Based on Yue Yuan's understanding of Yang Guo, this was the most probable scenario. Once Yang Guo gave up, he would attract women.

His hatred was now directed at the Mongols, and with Guo Jing's resistance against the Mongols and Huang Rong's emotional and rational persuasion, such as the saying that among the three unfilial acts, having no descendants is the greatest, and knowing that Yang Guo respected his mother, Mu Niannü, the subsequent developments were clear.

As for the Wu brothers, even if they were secretly in love with Guo Fu, what could they do?

They could not match Yang Guo, and now that Yang Guo had lost his left arm, his martial arts were even stronger. The Wu brothers were no match for him. As for Guo Fu, she had always had a vague affection for Yang Guo, and her dislike was just a young girl's attitude.

It was a natural progression, one shy and the other giving up!

And then...

It developed into the current situation.

Looking at Yang Guo's back, Yue Yuan suddenly felt that he should not have agreed to Guo Jing and Huang Rong's request, but since the matter had already become a fact, this small impulse quickly disappeared.

Since he had taken the step, he would bear the consequences.

No matter what happened next, Yue Yuan would face it calmly. But it was also good; it was better for Xiaolongnü to cut ties than to endure sixteen years of pain with Yang Guo.

As Yue Yuan and Li Mochou entered the hall, his gaze was suddenly drawn to an object in the corner. Looking over, he saw a large bird almost as big as a person standing in the corner of the yard.

And this large bird was none other than the great eagle.

"..."

Li Mochou was even more surprised at the sight of the large bird. For such a large eagle, almost everyone was seeing it for the first time. People could even sense the intelligence in the eagle's eyes.

Li Mochou had only thought that Guo Jing's two white eagles were already impressive, but this one...

Only Yue Yuan was not surprised by the appearance of the great eagle. He was only slightly surprised that Yang Guo had brought it out of the tomb. If Yang Guo's appearance reminded Yue Yuan of the Sword Sect at West Lake, then now he had his little yellow chicken, just a bit larger.

His gaze returned.

Yue Yuan and Li Mochou followed Yang Guo into the hall.

This was the first time Yue Yuan and Li Mochou had visited Guo Jing's residence in Xiangyang. The last time Yue Yuan was in Xiangyang, he had only briefly stayed at the gate. As for the Immortal Red Snake, it was even more so.

They knew nothing about Guo Jing's residence.

As soon as they entered the hall, Guo Jing, who was discussing something with his wife Huang Rong, looked up and saw Yue Yuan and Li Mochou. He immediately stood up warmly and welcomed them.

"Daoist Yue!"

"Daoist Li!"

After Li Mochou's efforts in the battle in Xiangyang last year, even though Guo Jing disapproved of her past actions, he had put aside his disapproval when she acted for the good of the country and the people. Now, seeing Yue Yuan and Li Mochou, Guo Jing was very warm.

Huang Rong, on the other hand, took Li Mochou's hand and greeted her warmly. While greeting them, she also gave Yue Yuan and Li Mochou a look, indicating that they should not slip up.

Faced with Huang Rong's hint, Li Mochou naturally understood, and so did Yue Yuan.

"Great Hero Guo!"

"Leader Huang!"

"Brother Yang and Miss Guo's wedding, we couldn't come due to some matters, please forgive us! However, I and Mochou have a gift to make up for not being able to attend the wedding!"

Bowing, Yue Yuan smiled and apologized, also mentioning Guo Fu's wedding.

On the side.

After Yang Guo entered, Guo Fu, now dressed in a married woman's headdress, stood shyly by his side, her former capriciousness reduced, and a new charm of a young wife added.

As for Yang Guo, he only gave a slight smile and did not say much.

Regarding Yue Yuan and Li Mochou, Yang Guo still had a strange feeling inside and some difficulty accepting it.

...

The sun set in the west!

For the guards at the Xiangyang city gate, this was the time when they were about to rest. Just as the guards were about to close the city gate, a galloping horse approached from the end of the road, and a pink figure rode through just as the gate was about to close.

The guards were left with a trail of angry curses.

As the sound of silver coins hitting the ground echoed, the angry curses at the city gate instantly disappeared.

In their peripheral vision, only the silver coins on the ground and the pink figure disappearing into the city gate remained.
