A smile appeared on the corners of the man's lips as he remembered that delicate and beautiful face.
"Yun'er, I'm sorry, I won't be able to keep you company for a while. I'll come back to you once I've recovered my strength."
He quickly sat down in a crossed-legged position as he muttered these words and regulated the aura within his body.
...
"What is the meaning of this?"
In a forest on a mountain, several figures descended from the sky and landed near the pile of corpses after Gu Ruoyun and the others had left.
"Who has done this? Who has touched the Charm Sect disciples and given them such a horrendous death!"
A middle-aged woman clenched her fists at the sight of the Charm Sect disciples' bodies that were lying in a pool of blood. Her face was filled with rage as she said, "Investigate this. I will make the person responsible for this pay no matter who it is!"
"Yes, elder."
Wen Yan 1 , a disciple from the Charm Sect, joined her fists and retreated after receiving her orders.
The middle-aged woman could not suppress the anger in her heart. She could not figure out why someone would be so cruel as to do such a thing to a group of women. Especially since Rong Yue was the Sect Master's favorite disciple!
If the Sect Master was to find out that she had been murdered so mercilessly here, the consequences would be unthinkable!
...
Overlook Town was located in the western part of the First City. Even though it was a small town, the market there was particularly lively as stall owners called out continuously to make sales.
"Did you hear? Great Master Wu Yin is competing with another old man to refine pills in the plaza."
"What? Is this true? Great Master Wu Yin is competing against someone in the art of pill refinement? Come on, let's hurry over and watch. This isn't something that you can easily witness every day."
Upon hearing the news from the small street, the crowd rushed towards the plaza.
Great Master Wu Yin?
Gu Ruoyun was shocked. If she remembers correctly, that was the name of the person who was mentioned by those ruffians who had tried to snatch the medicinal herbs from ye Nuo. They had claimed that they wanted to gift the medicinal herbs to Great Master Wu Yin.
"Bodyguard Gu, let's join in the fun too." Ye Nuo blinked. "I'd really like to know if Great Master Wu Yin is better than the other old coot."
Obviously, Ye Nuo was a person who would hold a grudge.
Previously, someone had tried to snatch his medicinal herbs in order to gain favor from Great Master Wu Yin. Therefore, he has now carried this debt onto Great Master Wu Yin's head.
...
Great Master Wu Yin was refining the pill effortlessly and with great ease at the plaza. His expression had remained calm the entire time. In contrast, the old man in front of him was obviously uncomfortable. Beads of sweat were rolling down his forehead continuously and his expression filled with anxiety.
However, when Gu Ruoyun laid her eyes upon the old man, she was immediately dumbstruck and rooted to her spot.
"What's this guy doing here? He's even competing with someone else to refine pills?"
During that year when she had been in closed-door cultivation, this old man had made a trip to the Northern Block Territory. Initially, he had stormed aggressively towards the Lan family residence, intending to make them pay. Who would have thought that when he arrived, the Lan family had already been destroyed by her father so he had no choice but to leave in an embarrassed manner?
Furthermore, Gu Ruoyun had been in closed-door cultivation at the time and had been unable to bid him farewell. She never expected the old fellow to arrive in the First City as well.
"Bodyguard Gu, do you know this old man?" Ye Nuo comprehended the look on Gu Ruoyun's face as he turned towards her and asked in astonishment.
Gu Ruoyun stroked her chin and nodded. "Know him? This fellow is my Master."
That was right, the fellow competing against Great Master Wu Yin was her Master, the Holy Doctor Bai Zhongtian!
However, it seems like her Master was not in a very favorable position now...
