Xu Haoran asked himself, even if it were him facing Gu Xuanqing, there would be no advantage to gain, perhaps even defeated in just a few breaths.
Yet Gu Yuan was able to defeat the strong while weak; if not for Gu Kong Monster's timely intervention, Gu Xuanqing would have surely suffered a terrible defeat at his hands.
Afterwards, he killed the Yin God Giant, Xue Wulong with just one strike.
Thus, anyone with a brain knows that Gu Yuan must have secrets, crucial secrets that likely relate to his ability to defeat the strong while weak, and his identity and background.
Hence, many were intrigued.
If they could uncover Gu Yuan's secrets, wouldn't they also be able to rapidly increase their strength, overcome the strong while weak, and slay Yin God Giants with a Golden Core?!
Xu Haoran has some acquaintance with Gu Yuan, which some people inside Luofu Immortal Island are actually aware of.
Thus, Xu Haoran didn't want to have much contact with Gu Yuan.
