Mu Chu lowered his head but he could not help but clench his fists tightly.
He knows that he has indeed broken the rules this time. However, in order to help the Wen family, he would never regret it!
Most importantly, Gu Ruoyun's brother had the audacity to use Yue'er's kindness to help him escape. Based on this point alone, he would never let this pair of siblings get away with it! Otherwise, if Gu Ruoyun was allowed to grow, Yue'er would certainly be in danger!
He did not want this to happen so he had broken the sect's rules and acted unfairly.
"Let's go."
Elder Tianren let out a bitter laugh. Even though this Mu Chu was not his disciple, he had watched him grow up. Yet, he did not expect that he would do such a disappointing thing. It looks like he would have to ask his Master to keep an eye on this kid so that he does not continue to treat Gu Ruoyun unfairly.
...
Ever since Mu Chu had left, Gu Ruoyun knew that the Secret Order would come again. This time, they would not send an emissary of Mu Chu's level. However, she never thought that the Secret Order would arrive so quickly. Furthermore, the emissary was an elder of the Secret Order.
Gu Ruoyun raised her brows as she stared at the white-haired old man who was seated in the guest house. She then slowly walked towards him and curled the corners of her lips. A smile appeared in her dark eyes but her voice was as clear and cold as ever.
"The members of the Secret Order had been here before but I never thought that they would come again. May I ask why you've come to see me this time?"
Even though Gu Ruoyun had already guessed the old man's intentions, she still asked a question that she already knew the answer to. A cold light flashed in her smiling eyes as she stared at the old man who was sipping his tea at the table with a forced smile.
"You're Gu Ruoyun?"
Elder Tianren carefully observed Gu Ruoyun. The more he looked at her, the more shocked he became.
This little girl was indeed the Sacred Lady's daughter. She looked like she had been cast from the same mold. However, in contrast to the Sacred Lady's iciness, this woman had a lofty and unyielding character like a bamboo forest. There was a subtle sense of arrogance in her chilly air.
"That's right." Gu Ruoyun smiled calmly as she turned her gaze towards Mu Chu who was standing behind Elder Tianren. "What? I've just chased the Secret Order's junior away and you're here to avenge him? "
Elder Tianren furrowed his brows slightly and glanced at Mu Chu behind him. As he had arrived in a hurry, he had not asked about what had happened in detail.
Hence, when he heard Gu Ruoyun's words, he could not help but feel puzzled. What on earth had happened between the two of them for Gu Ruoyun to treat him with such hostility?
"Mu Chu, explain to me what's going on!" Elder Tianren's expression sank. "I had asked you to invite the Gu girl to the Secret Order. What on earth have you done to cause others to chase you away and accuse her of cheating in the assessment?"
Mu Chu's expression changed and a cold light flashed in his eyes. "Elder, I had indeed invited her to join the Secret Order but she had refused. I've never had any dispute with her, please clarify this, Elder."
As he spoke, Mu Chu shot Gu Ruoyun a warning look, clearly forgetting about the intense shock that Zixie had given him.
After all, if the elders were to find out about the things that he had done in the past, it would not be as simple as stripping him of his position as the Left Emissary. Perhaps he would be punished even more harshly. Hence, he could only ask Gu Ruoyun to help him expand...
