Gu Hueyu will spawn next to a tower in Poplar Bazaar after completing the Land of Gold Encounter quest, along with other NPCs in the area.

Example of Successful Conversation

Gu Yuehu Icon(lifts chin proudly, suddenly wobbles and throws a messy combination of off-beat punches) Young one, your skills are ordinary, but if you master my lightning five-whip technique, your name may one day echo across the desert. I am, after all, the caravan originator, the genius behind camels and trade. Follow my way and, as we say, "water under the fridge." Now—if I launch a right whip kick, what do you do?
Where Winds Meet Protagonist(Tell him he's bluffing)
Gu Yuehu Icon(raises an eyebrow, smriking) Ah, you clearly don't grasp the finer points of this, young one. Don't be so pushy-pushy. My martial arts are polished to perfection. I've mastered every discipline under the sun—boxing, palms, swords, blades—polished to absolute perfection. You just don't understand the depth of my knowledge. Let me test you. What do you think of the lightning five-whip technique?
Where Winds Meet Protagonist(Tell him what the lightning five-whip is)
Gu Yuehu Icon(crosses arms, looking smug) Sit tight and let me enlighten you, young one. The lightning five-whip technique is a marvel of martial arts. It involves a series of rapid, precise strikes that can disarm and incapacitate an opponent in a heartbeat. As the saying goes, "nip it in the butt." You need to be quick and cunning. Now, tell me, have you ever seen such a technique in action?
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistNot yet.
Gu Yuehu Icon(nods with a knowing smile) Ah, you clearly don't grasp the finer points of this, young one. No surprise there. The lightning five-whip technique is not something just anyone can witness. It takes a master like myself to perform it flawlessly. Watch closely. I will demonstrate the essence of it. (makes a few exaggerated, theatrical movements). There, you see? Each strike is precise and deadly.
Where Winds Meet Protagonist(Praise him)
Gu Yuehu Icon(bows his head slightly, visibly pleased) Ah, you have a keen eye, young one. It's not often that someone recognizes the true power of the lightning five-whip technique. As the saying goes, "for all intensive purposes." My skills are unmatched. If you wish to learn, I can guide you. But first, let me test your understanding. What do you think is the most crucial aspect of this technique?
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistWhat is it?
Gu Yuehu Icon(smiles condescendingly, wagging a finger) Sit tight and let me enlighten you, young one. The most crucial aspect of the lightning five-whip technique is the timing and precision of each strike. Every movement must be calculated to perfection. As the old proverb says, "a mute point." Without this, the technique loses its effectiveness. Now, tell me, what do you think about the importance of timing in martial arts?
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistEffectivity.
Gu Yuehu Icon(gazes off like a sage) Enough for now—let my wisdom settle.

Gu Yuehu flings his sleeve and ignores you. (Affection +100, becomes Revered)

Note that AI conversations can be unpredictable and even with the same inputs, the same result is not necessarily guaranteed.

How to Succeed in AI Chat

Reset Dialogue When Stuck

If your conversation has gone off the rails, or doesn't end no matter what you say, it's best to simply reset and start anew from a clean slate by clicking the button with a Refresh icon at the top of the chat box. Instead of trying several methods within one conversation, trying one strategy at a time and refreshing if it doesn't go anywhere is generally more effective.

Return to Login Screen if Combat Begins

Sometimes, NPCs will suddenly become violent during AI dialogues. When this happens, it's best to just bail out to the login screen; when you return, the NPC will be found just as they were before the conversation started.

If you accidentally kill a dialogue-capable NPC, our experience has shown that they will respawn, but this has not been heavily tested, so it's best to simply avoid engaging them in combat.

Double-Check the Hint

Even if the NPC appears to be happy with the result of your discussion, this won't always end the dialogue. Double-checking the text written in the hint will imply the win condition, so try strategies which will lead the dialogue towards that result.
