Looking at the ferocious features of the Second Madam, Second Master Gu could not help but knit his brows together. Still frowning, he turned towards General Gu and asked, "Father, so what should we do next?"
Narrowing both of his eyes slightly, General Gu scoffed with a cold sneer and said, "It seems like I would have to attend to this matter by myself this time! At any rate, I am still her grandfather. I do not believe that she dare refuse a meeting with me if I seek her personally! If she really had the guts to do that, I am sure she would become famous for being unfilial overnight!"
Filial piety was a central value of the Azure Dragon Country. He knew well that by making an entrance himself, she could not refuse no matter what. Otherwise, she would invite a lot of resent and dislike from others.
However, it was such a pity that this time, General Gu was asked to leave when he reached there even before he could see Gu Ruoyun even once.
There was no other reason other than the fact that Gu Ruoyun was in the midst of her cultivation training ever since she got back. Let alone other people, even Dongfang Shaoze was not able to see her at all. That was why there was nothing that General Gu could do other than go back home in disappointment.
As a result of not being able to meet Guo Ruoyun for a few days continuously, General Gu began to worry whether Dongfang Shaoze would come pay a visit to the Gu family. Just when he was feeling uneasy with anxiousness, he suddenly received news from the spy that he had placed earlier on at the Imperial Gate that Dongfang young master had left the Azure Dragon country in a rather urgent manner.
Then only could he finally set his heart at ease for now...
Inside the bedroom, Gu Ruoyun slowly opened her eyes. A matchless beautiful face appeared in front of her in a flash.
"Xiao Yue?" When and where had this fellow appeared from? She did not even notice a thing.
The man pouted his lips in an aggrieved manner and his gaze was full of accusation as he stared straight at Gu Ruoyun. "Xiao Yun, you have been cultivating for too long."
In other words, he had not seen Gu Yuoyun for a long time now.
"Was it very long?" Gu Ruoyun chuckled. "It seems like I have been doing closed-door cultivation for almost a month now, isn't it? Now I have already made a breakthrough and have reached level six in the Qi Collection ranks, I wonder how is the progress of Admiral Luo right now with my weapon forgery."
Wah!
All of a sudden, there was a wave of tremor that could be felt deep inside Gu Ruoyun's soul. Delighted, she asked, "Zixie, are you awake now?
Just when she finished talking, a ray of purple light shone out from Gu Ruoyun's body. Soon after, a deep manly sexy voice could be heard laughing out loud. "Hey there, little girl, it has been quite some time. Why? You missed me, didn't you? So impatient to summon me out in a hurry?
Clothed in a long purple robe, with the sleeve embroidered with the drawing of a purple phoenix, a man with very handsome features coupled with a devilish smile appeared. Hie every little move exuded a sense of an awe-inspiring presence.
Gu Ruoyun's face darkened suddenly. "I have a favor to ask of you."
As she finished talking, she looked at Qianbei Ye who was right next to her and said, "This is my new friend. Could you help me to take a look at his memory, please? What made him lose all of his memories?"
"Oh?" Lifting his brows in a devilish fashion, Zixie's gaze followed to where Gu Ruoyun was looking at.
The moment he took in the sight of Qianbei Ye, that handsome face froze up all of a sudden. With a "swoosh" sound, his aura of presence instantaneously reached its maximum height, his gaze turned as cold as frost. "Why are you here?"
Cold....
This instant, Gu Ruoyun noticed the coldness in Zixie's eyes, such extent that she had never seen before.
Since the day that she had got to know Zixie, she had never seen this kind of expression on his face before, especially the flame of hatred that was burning with rage right now in that pair of purple eyes.
"Zixie, what is going on right now?"
"What is going on?" Zixie let out a sardonic sneer. "You should ask him instead!"
