If Guan Yu, Sainted Warrior is removed from the graveyard after the ability triggers but before it resolves, it won't get shuffled into your library.

2009-10-01wotc

Despite the similarities between horsemanship and flying, horsemanship doesn't interact with flying or reach.

If a replacement effect has Guan Yu move to a different zone instead of being put into the graveyard, the ability won't trigger at all.
