Chapter 59: The Rise of The Almighty Army (5)
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"No, I won't." Shaking her head, she chuckled softly. "I believe in Zixie, but I believe in my feelings and guts more. No matter what kind of person you were in the past, the person that I know of is not of the old you but who you are right now."
The man burst into a laugh.
The laughter was so breathlessly beautiful and captivating, to the extent that even the universe appeared dull in comparison.
"I believe in you too. In this world, you are the only person I believe in. Even if you had discarded me, I would still believe that you must have your own reasons for doing that. Xiao Yun, if there came a day that you give up on me, I would be waiting for you right here, waiting for you to come back and find me eventually...."
Gu Ruoyun felt a clench in her heart. She felt pity and ache towards this man. No matter how big of a mistake that he had committed in the past, she would never ever give up on him....
Walking out the door, she immediately saw Elder Yu rushing towards her. The moment he saw Gu Ruoyun and Qianbei Ye who was about to come out from the room, he rushed forward delightedly.
"Lady Gu, the group of people just came back."
Faintly lifting her brows, Gu Ruoyun smiled. "Now that I think about it, it's about time for Admiral Luo's weapons to arrive as well. Elder Yu, could you please get those weapons for me? It is time for me to reveal my plan."
"Yes, Lady Gu."
…
Just a month ago, there was about a hundred over people in the group that was sent to the Spiritual Beat Mountains by Gu Ruoyun, but right now, only slightly over fifty people had returned. Most of the people had escaped when they could not withstand the dangers that they came across. Some even met with their deaths under the claws of ferocious wild beasts.
Nevertheless, right now, these people had no idea that because of their perseverance and determination, they would become the almighty powerhouses that could make all of the mainlands tremble in fear in the near future!
In the courtyard, Gu Ruoyun swept her glance over every person who had managed to stay behind and finally came to a rest on Xun Feng who was sporting his usual haughty and arrogant look.
"You managed to hold up, I see."
"That is right." Lifting up his face, he said in a cold and arrogant manner, "Do you remember that you gave us your words you would show your true potential if we managed to survive? I hope you will not let our efforts in this one month go to waste."
Gu Ruoyun burst out laughing. "Well, to be honest, I don't have many abilities. Up till now, I am merely at level six in the Qi Collection ranks. When it comes to combat strength, I am not a match at all for all you elites."
Xun Feng's face turned dark immediately. Is this young girl freaking toying with us? If it was true, he would never let her off!
"However!" Gu Ruoyun chuckled, with the glimpse in her eyes shone differently now. "Did all of you really think that this one month was a waste of time and effort? Are you going to tell me that none of you had improved at all during this one month of training? If that was true, I do not even have the need to train you guys anymore."
Having listened to her words, there were some slight changes on the face of each and every one of them.
Gu Ruoyun was right. In this one month of training, not only had they progressed tremendously, their physiques and build strengthened greatly as well. This was not something that they could achieve easily even if they were to cultivate for six months long...
"As I have said before, perhaps my power is not strong enough right now, but in the near future, I will be so strong that none of you guys would be able to be my match even if all of you were united and combined altogether! Even if it was under my meticulous training methods."
The power that Gu Ruoyun possessed right now was nothing out of the ordinary. However, her achievements were still pretty outstanding if they were to compare to her peer group. At the very least, she was no longer the loser that she used to be back then. Still, as her cultivation period was still considerably short, there was nothing much to her success yet.
"As long as all of you follow me, I will never let you regret!" Gu Ruoyun lifted her head high up. Under the bright sun, a faint but confident smile could be seen on her delicate features. "I will train and forge all of you to become the greatest and most powerful troop ever! Even if this troop was comprised of only fifty people, it would triumph in every battle and succeed in every invasion! I believe that the main cause of you guys having persisted to the very last moment is for this very same reason as well."

The side profile of Gu Ruoyun's face was gleaming bright with confidence under the bright light of the Sun, causing Xun Feng's gaze to be in a trance and daze for a split second. All of a sudden, he made a decision at that very moment, a decision that would influence and change the rest of his life permanently.
"If you possess the strength that could help me get my revenge, I, Xun Feng, will obey your order and command for the rest of my entire life!"
In truth, from the very start, Gu Ruo Yun had had her eyes on Xun Feng the moment she met with this group of people. It was obviously because this man was the most powerful among all of them. Besides, she also had a feeling that this young man had an identity that was out of the ordinary.
"Do not worry. Since you guys have already become my followers, I promise I will never mistreat any of you." Gu Ruoyun paused for a while before continuing again, "As you can see, I have the Qi Gathering Pills in my hand now. Once you have consumed the pills, your strength will grow much rapidly."
Qi Gathering Pills?
None of these people had heard of this pill before, and they could not help but stare at Gu Ruoyun dumbfoundedly.
"Qi Gathering Pills? Are you... are you talking about pills?"
Just when every one of them was in a confused and baffled state, Elder Yu let out a yelp in surprise.
His pair of aged eyes were wide open in bewilderment and he stared fixedly at the ceramic bottle that Gu Ruoyun was holding. At this very moment, even his breath felt antsy and nervous, for fear that he would miss out a word that she said.
None of these people knew what Qi Gathering Pill was but as a member of the Dongfang family, how could he not know what it was?
That was a legendary object!! How did she manage to get her hands on those pills?
This... this was beyond incredible!
After all, even when it was tens of thousands years ago, the mere existence of Pill Master itself was considered as something immensely valuable, let alone the time right now when the Pill Master no longer existed. Even in the household of the Dongfang family, there were only two pills left in the keepsake. All the more so, they were obtained by the master in an ancient ruin. Up until today, they were being treasured as the family heirloom.
But she? Carelessly taking the pills out? On top of that, she was simply giving away the pills just like that?
This was such a disgrace!
Elder Yu stared at Gu Ruoyun exasperatedly. It was obvious that he was discontented and unhappy about the fact that she was giving out the pills just like that. Even if they were her followers, she need not be so generous!
"Elder Yu, it seems to me like your cultivation level is already at the bottleneck level. These Qi Gathering Pills will not be much use to somebody who is already at that kind of bottleneck level anyway. That is why I did not prepare one for you too. I will find you another pill that could help you to make a breakthrough past the high-level Martial General next time, alright?
Seeing the look in Elder Yu's eyes, all Gu Ruoyun could do was to just rub the tip of her nose while shrugging her shoulders.
Wh... What?
Elder Yu opened his eyes wide in surprise?
This young little girl just told me that she was able to help me make a breakthrough to the Martial King stage?
I must be hallucinating.
Yeah, that must be it. I must be hallucinating.....
In his eyes, having these many pills were already considered something bizarre and unthinkable, let alone having a pill that could help him break past the peak of the Martial Warrior stage. This scenario was totally unimaginable, something that was completely impossible.
"Hehe, Lady Gu, that is very nice of you. However, my inborn talent is not that great anyway. In virtue of my loyalty and dutiful towards him, young master permitted me to distant and hold myself aloof from the rest of the world, allowing me to spend my remaining days over here, and take care of the Hundred Herb Hall at the same time. I know my own abilities well. It is impossible for me to make anymore breakthrough for the rest of my life."
Shaking his head, Elder Yu let out a chuckle.
Having listened to his words, Gu Ruoyun did not say anything more. She spoke with a smile, "Elder Yu, please help me to distribute all of these pills to each of them. These Qi Gathering Pills will help the warriors gather and accumulate all of the Qi energy from the universe, which increases the speed of cultivation. However, only one pill can be consumed at a time. They must wait till the effects of the pill wear off before they consume another one."
