Great Master Wu Yin and Bai Zhongtian looked at each other and saw the seriousness in each other's eyes. How could they have forgotten this? Knowing the Lin family, how could they possibly let Gu Ruoyun off? He must be waiting for her at the foot of the mountain.
"Gu girl, do you need help?"
Great Master Wu Yin furrowed his brows and asked.
"There's no need, I can handle this on my own." Gu Ruoyun shook her head, "I'm just worried about Ye Nuo so I'll let him follow you. I have too many enemies. If he stays by my side, I'm afraid that I won't be able to protect him."
If they were really in danger, Gu Ruoyun was confident that she would be able to escape. However, if she brought Ye Nuo along, that might not be the case.
"Bodyguard Gu."
Ye Nuo tugged at Gu Ruoyun's sleeve and raised his head to look at her pitifully. His expression was full of grievance, like a pitiful child who had been abandoned by his own mother, "I promise that I won't cause any trouble. I'll be very obedient. Don't leave me behind, okay?"
His handsome little face was pleading as he stared anxiously at Gu Ruoyun with his large, bright eyes.
"No," Gu Ruoyun rejected him mercilessly, "You'll be in danger if you follow me. I can protect myself on my own, but I can't be sure if I bring you along."
Ye Nuo's little face fell and his expression became dispirited. He slowly loosened his grip, biting his lips so hard that they had turned white.
"Then … I'll wait for you here. Come pick me up when you're done, okay?"
Gu Ruoyun nodded solemnly, "Once I'm sure that I have the power to protect you, I'll come back for you."
This time, Gu Ruoyun did not bring along the black box used for cultivators. Instead, she had left it with Wei Yiyi and the others and had chosen to come to the First City on her own. As such, she could not bring Ye Nuo along at all. She could not even move him away quickly in times of danger.
Therefore, she decided to abandon Ye Nuo.
A light flashed in Ye Nuo's eyes. He asked again with uncertainty, "Bodyguard Gu, can you really come and pick me up after you're done?"
Gu Ruoyun nodded again when she saw the hope in Ye Nuo's eyes.
"I will be back."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you here. Don't lie to me."
She did not know why but when she heard Ye Nuo's words, she could not help but recall the freckled little girl she had met in Wind Fall Village.
At that time, she had promised the little girl that she would teach her medical skills after she was done with her business.
Who would have thought that their parting would be eternal!
"Master, take these pills, they can be used to save your lives." Gu Ruoyun took out a porcelain bottle from her bosom and placed it on the table. After thinking for a moment, she was still worried so she took out two mid-tier spiritual weapons, "Take these two weapons as well. No matter what, when you're in danger, you must protect your own life."
Bai Zhongtian's eyes were transfixed as he stared unblinkingly at the spiritual weapon that Gu Ruoyun had brought out. His expression was like a big bad wolf that had finally seen a delicious little white rabbit and was almost drooling.
"Little girl, you still have so many good things, why didn't you take them out to show filial piety to Master earlier?"
In contrast to Bai Zhongtian, Great Master Wu Yin's face was clearly filled with shock. Most of it was a struggle.
"Gu girl, there's no such thing as an undeserved reward. I'm afraid that it wouldn't be a good idea for me to take your spiritual weapons."
Gu Ruoyun had her own reasons for taking out these two spiritual weapons. She does not want the tragedy of Wind Fall Village to repeat itself. If she had these two spiritual weapons in her hands, at least the two old men's powers would increase by a great deal.
