"Stop right there!"
When the two guards saw Gu Ruoyun's appearance, they quickly checked the portrait in their hands. They looked at each other before turning their attention towards Gu Ruoyun.
"Miss, our elder has asked for your presence."
Elder?
Gu Ruoyun furrowed her brows, "Why is your elder looking for me?"
"This is not something that we can understand. If you want to know the reason, come with us to see the elder!" The guards heaved a sigh of relief. They never thought that after so many days of searching, they would finally find the woman in the portrait.
This way, they would be able to answer to the elder.
"Lead the way."
Gu Ruoyun thought for a moment before she finally agreed to meet the elder of Wind Valley.
She really wanted to know why the elder of Wind Valley was looking for her!
One of the guards made an inviting gesture before leading the way. The other stayed behind to continue guarding the city gates.
Wind City.
An old man was sitting in front of a table in a room of the inn, sipping on a cup of tea in his hand. Only when the door to the room was pushed open did his eyebrows move and his gaze fall upon Gu Ruoyun, who had followed the guards into the room.
"Lady Gu, I've been waiting for you here for a very long time."
The old man gently curled the corners of his lips as he smiled at Gu Ruoyun who had just entered the room.
Gu Ruoyun's expression slowly sank. She looked at the old man and asked, "How did you know that I would be here?"
"Hehe," The old man chuckled, "Actually, it's not just Wind City. I've sent people to many places with your portrait in their hands to search for you. I never thought that I would actually find you. Lady Gu, I've asked you to come here because I have something to discuss with you."
"What is it?"
Gu Ruoyun furrowed her brows as she asked.
"Wind Valley has taken a liking to your talents so we would like to invite you to join us. What do you think, Lady Gu?"
"My apologies." Gu Ruoyun smiled calmly. Her eyes were just as clear and cold as ever, "I've already rejected you back at the Medicine Sect! Hence, my answer is still the same. I will never join the Medicine Sect. You should give up. "
Elder Bai's eyes sharpened as an almost undetectable light flashed across them. His lips continued to curl into a smile, "Lady Gu, please consider it. Joining Wind Valley will only bring you benefits, there are no downsides! Besides, you should be aware of Wind Valley's prestige in the First City. As long as you're willing to pledge your loyalty to Wind Valley, we can give you the power to stand above everyone else. Besides, no one in the First City would dare to touch you. "
He paused for a moment before continuing, "Furthermore, Lady Gu, your powers are only at the early-stage Martial Saint rank and there are countless powerful cultivators in the First City. You should be able to imagine the dangers that you will face. If you're willing to join Wind Valley, I guarantee that no one will have the guts to cause trouble for you. My Lady has always cherished talents and will not mistreat you."
Gu Ruoyun's face carried a calm smile as she replied with clear and cold eyes, "I love freedom and I don't want to be restricted in any way. I can only accept the Eldest Lady of Wind Valley's kind intentions!"
"Lady Gu." Elder Bai's eyes sank before he calmed the emotions in his heart and smiled gently, "Don't be in such a hurry to reject Wind Valley. I'll give you a chance to consider it. Besides, I can guarantee that Wind Valley will not restrict your freedom. You only need to provide Wind Valley with pills on a regular basis. Wind Valley will help you settle everything else. Wind Valley can also give you the freedom that you want."
