Chapter 1811 Temporary Tranquility
Although she looks younger, her age is...
When the poster saw Ruan Yu's bone age, his eyes widened as if they were made of copper!
This...this...! Twenty-five years old! How is that possible?!
Could it be that this woman is a prodigy from some powerful family, or not some kind of strong individual?
But what family is above the Gu family? On the Ancient Path Continent, the Gu family is already a top-tier family. Could it be… she comes from another continent?
The original poster thought to himself.
He became even more wary of Ruan Yu. If Ruan Yu were alone, it would be fine. But if she came from a powerful family on another continent, then he couldn't afford to make an enemy of her.
Even if his elders and disciples were killed, he would have to swallow his anger!
Damn it!
The key issue is that he can't swallow it!
The foundation of Fengxuelou has been completely destroyed; how easy is it to restore it to its former state? And the culprit is right before our eyes...
"Tell me, what is it about the Gu family that you covet? You're even willing to sever ties with the Gu family to help them kill their own brothers?"
Ruan Yu's words made the poster's forehead veins throb.
The most shocked person was Gu Tian; he was utterly ashamed!
The level of embarrassment is no less than stripping him naked on the spot and throwing him into a crowd.
"Nonsense!" the original poster vehemently denied. "I have never done such a thing!"
"Then why would your people appear at the Gu family's house without reason?" Ruan Yu pretended to think.
The original poster was speechless.
Unlike other factions, the Wind and Snow Tower are assassins! Assassins!
The assassins are appearing in large numbers on another faction's territory. Are they on a team-building trip?
"You're all old foxes, what can't you say openly?" Ruan Yu continued to press.
"Regardless of my reasons, you have now killed so many of my men." The landlord took a deep breath and said with difficulty, "All grudges are settled!"
Gu Tian looked up in shock.
Gu Xing and several elders of the Gu family were astonished.
Even Ruan Yu couldn't help but widen her pupils.
The decision made by the leader of Fengxuelou was unexpected by everyone. Fengxuelou suffered heavy casualties this time, with all the high-ranking members wiped out, leaving only some low-level assassins.
It's no exaggeration to say that Fengxuelou is about to be removed from the list of the number one assassins!
They've already fallen out like this, and the original poster is still tolerating it?!
Cattle!
Ruan Yu couldn't help but give the poster a thumbs up in her heart.
However, one thing at a time.
"It was your Fengxuelou who provoked the Gu family first. You have no idea how arrogant your people were in the Gu family." Ruan Yu added fuel to the fire, "They came to the Gu family's territory, barking and threatening us in every way. We had no choice but to defend ourselves. Unexpectedly, we used too much force and killed someone!"
As she spoke, Ruan Yu feigned a look of fear and covered her mouth with one hand.
The Gu family was astonished by Ruan Yu's exaggerated acting skills.
Although the truth was somewhat different from her description, the people of Fengxuelou were indeed far too arrogant! Therefore, they deserved to die!
The original poster was so engrossed in listening that they clenched their teeth.
A dog barking? A last resort? A defensive maneuver? An accidental overuse of force?
She did this on purpose!
The original poster is about to reach their breaking point!
Deceiving too much!
His eyes were red. Just then, the will that Xu Daozi had gathered with his last bit of soul before his death entered the Lord's sea of consciousness.
"Master, this woman is a prodigy of the martial arts continent!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the murderous intent in the landlord's eyes vanished completely.
Ruan Yu had prepared for a major battle, but unexpectedly the other side suddenly backed down.
"Sorry, I didn't manage my men well and caused you trouble." The poster forced a smile. "You killed them, they deserved it."
Everyone except the original poster: "???"
What's going on? Has the original poster been possessed? Or does he know something?
Given his attitude, Ruan Yu couldn't continue to make things difficult for him.
"Please return, everyone. Fengxuelou has suffered heavy losses and is not in a position to entertain guests."
Ruan Yu and her group left Fengxue Tower in a daze and without any explanation.
"Has the Lord of Fengxue Tower gone mad? We killed so many of his elite troops, and he doesn't even care? He even let us go?" Gu Xing couldn't help but ask as soon as he stepped out of the Fengxue Tower's gate.
The elders said, "It may seem unbelievable, but it is indeed the case."
"He doesn't want to cause a big fuss, but don't we want to too? If a fight really breaks out, our Gu family will also lose a large number of disciples and high-ranking members."
"He was in the wrong to begin with, coveting our Gu family's treasures for no reason, and..."
The group glanced at Gu Tian discreetly.
"Go back and deal with him according to family rules! Then put him in solitary confinement again!"
Faced with the elders' decision, Gu Tian did not offer a single word of explanation.
"Young friend, do you think the Lord of Fengxue Tower truly wants us to leave?" On the way back, the First Elder's heart pounded with unease.
Ruan Yu: "That's how it will be in the short term."
"Why do you say that?" the Sixth Elder asked, puzzled.
The Third Elder explained, "Are you stupid? The Lord probably learned from his subordinates that you are from the Martial Dao Continent, and therefore doesn't want to offend you."
The Sixth Elder was puzzled: "Weren't all his men dead? How did the news reach the Lord's ears?"
"It might be a secret technique. Doesn't our Gu family have many secret techniques too?"
Hearing this, the Sixth Elder's eyes became much clearer.
"I see."
"But... why do you say it's like this in a short period of time?"
Ruan Yu raised her hand and set up several soundproof arrays: "Because I am not from the Martial Dao Continent."
"I come from the lower realm, the Tianyuan Continent."
Upon hearing this, the elders were all shocked and bewildered.
Tianyuan Continent? Never heard of it!
The Fifth Elder carefully examined the ancient books from the mainland and finally found it on the last page of the book!
"The Tianyuan Continent is a place where spiritual energy and natural treasures are most scarce..."
"Young friend Ruan, you come from such humble origins, yet you have achieved such a high level of cultivation at such a young age. It's unbelievable. If you had been born on the Ancient Dao Continent from the beginning, how high would you have risen to by now?" the Second Elder exclaimed.
The way everyone looked at Ruan Yu was filled with pity and admiration.
Ruan Yu twitched her lips.
There's really no need to pity her.
She's just a character with unlimited power. If it weren't for her past life experience and luck comparable to the female protagonist of a world, how could she have progressed so rapidly?
"Gu Tian, do you know your mistake?" Upon returning to the Gu family, the elders immediately began interrogating Gu Tian.
Feeling bored, Ruan Yu said goodbye and left the interrogation room.
Gu Xing, like a shadow, wanted to stick to Ruan Yu all the time: "Master, the elders haven't had time to arrange a place for you yet, have they? Shall I take you there? I know a secluded courtyard, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and abundant divine energy. It's a good place for cultivation and to nurture your mind and body!"
"lead the way."
"Alright!" Gu Xing beamed. "By the way, Master, I've mastered the basic Body Tempering Technique you taught me. Do you think it's possible to..."
He rubbed his hands together expectantly.
"If you're tired today, I'll teach you the advanced version tomorrow."
