Gu Ruoyun's words caused the Left Emissary's expression to change. A sense of astonishment flashed in his eyes as if he did not understand how she had found out about this.
After all, before the Left Emissary had left the Secret Order, the two Secret Order disciples had not told him about Gu Ruoyun's appearance. Hence, he naturally did not know that Gu Ruoyun had already ascended Deity Peak. He even assumed that she was afraid of the dangerous spiritual beasts on Deity Peak so she had waited for him in this guest house.
"So, I don't know if you've really abandoned us at the last minute or if you've never intended to let us enter the Secret Order?" Gu Ruoyun smiled calmly. "Since the Secret Order doesn't keep its word and won't allow the champion of the assessment to enter the Secret Order to accept the inheritance, I won't go."
The Left Emissary's eyes darkened and he laughed icily, "Gu Ruoyun, you've already won the championship of the assessment. If you don't go to the Secret Order and word gets out, the Secret Order's reputation will be affected. Hence, this matter cannot be tolerated by you! You must return with me! Besides, you are not allowed to tell anyone about my earlier departure. Otherwise, once we're in the Secret Order, I have ways to make things difficult for you! "
Actually, the Left Emissary had dared to abandon Gu Ruoyun in the beginning because he was not aware of Gu Ruoyun's importance to the Secret Order.
Hence, he had always thought that this woman was only a genius and the Secret Order had no lack of geniuses. However, he never thought that Elder Tianren would think so highly of her. Now, it was too late for regrets.
Unfortunately, he had already done it so he could only think of a way to salvage the situation.
Of course, he would not dare to use his personal authority before Gu Ruoyun enters the Secret Order. However, in order to prevent Elder Tianren from finding out about his actions, he had no choice but to threaten Gu Ruoyun! He hoped that she would be self-aware and help him cover up his lie!
Otherwise, if Elder Tianren found out that he had abandoned Gu Ruoyun on purpose, he was afraid that the Elder would be enraged.
After all, the Secret Order did not allow the use of public power to avenge private wrongs. Even his Master would not protect him.
"Master," Zi Yun turned towards Gu Ruoyun and said, "This dog's barking is too troublesome. Let's chase him away."
Whoosh!
As soon as Zi Yun finished speaking, a sharp light instantly swept towards him. Even though the light was not powerful enough to kill him, it would still injure him considerably.
"Zi Yun, be careful!"
Chu Luo's expression changed greatly. She then appeared in front of Zi Yun in a flash and raised her longsword to block the incoming light. She stumbled back with a loud bang and a trickle of blood trickled down the corner of her lips. She then frowned at the Left Emissary who was standing in front of her.
"Gu Ruoyun." The Left Emissary turned towards Gu Ruoyun and said, "If I wanted to crush you all, it would be as easy as crushing an ant. However, I had not done anything to you because you've become the champion of the assessment. I'll only ask you this once, are you willing to follow me to the Secret Order?"
Gu Ruoyun looked at the injured Chu Luo before turning towards the Left Emissary. A murderous intent flashed in her clear and cold eyes.
"It seems that the Secret Order has no intention of letting me off. Since that's the case, Zixie, help me send our guest off."
Zixie?
Chu Luo and Zi Yun were shocked. They have followed Gu Ruoyun for so long yet they have never heard of this name.
In addition …
Apart from them, who else could it be?
Hence, they could not understand who Gu Ruoyun was calling out to.
