Gradually, the pair of frightened eyes became dull and lifeless, like a block of wood.
"What's your name?"
Gu Ruoyun's voice seemed to have some sort of magical power, causing the man to obediently reply, "Reporting to Master, this subordinate's name is Li Cheng."
"Li Cheng, is it? You can go back now and keep an eye on Second Master Gu at all times. If there's any movement, inform me via soul transmission. "
Li Cheng was being controlled by Baobao, and Baobao had a contract with Gu Ruoyun, so they could communicate via soul transmission. Of course, with Baobao's current strength, it could only control the souls of martial kings and below.
"Shifu, Baobao has this kind of ability?" Wei Yiyi's beautiful eyes widened in shock, then she asked in confusion, "If it has this kind of power, why doesn't it just control Second Master Gu and ask him what we want?"
Gu Ruoyun shook her head, "If it was that simple, I would've done it a long time ago. Second Master Gu has a mysterious power behind him. If I control his soul, those people will definitely find out. It's too dangerous. Right now, I just want to find out where that power came from! What grudge does it have with my parents? "
"Shifu, shouldn't you be thanking Gu Xianglin for sending someone over to you?" Wei Yiyi blinked and said with a smile. It was obvious that she was in a good mood after seeing the Gu family make a fool of themselves today.
Gu Ruoyun smiled slightly, "Oh right, just now …"
Just as she was about to turn around to look for the grim masked man, she realized that there was nothing behind her. Where was he?
"Shifu," Wei Yiyi asked hesitantly, "That man, what's his background?"
"I'm not sure."
Gu Ruoyun shook her head, "But he doesn't have any ill intentions."
Not only that, even Gu Ruoyun didn't know why, but when that man had protected her in his arms, she had felt very safe and at ease …
"Forget it," Gu Ruoyun retracted her gaze, "Wei Yiyi, let's go."
Before she left, she seemed to have sensed something and glanced at the ancient tree where the man had hidden himself …
When the two figures slowly disappeared, a man dressed in black slowly walked out from behind the ancient tree. The man's thin lips were slightly pursed, as if they were curled into a cold smile. His black eyes were fixed on the girl's departing figure, filled with endless gentleness and love.
"I'm sorry, Yun 'er, I can't acknowledge you yet. I hope you can forgive me …"
…
Three years ago, that auction had shocked countless people. Thus, when they heard that Hundred Herb Hall was going to sell the Beauty Rejuvenation Pills, the entire Azure Dragon Country was in an uproar. All the high officials and nobles began to prepare their wealth, just for the sake of Hundred Herb Hall's Beauty Rejuvenation Pills.
Even if some people didn't need this Beauty Rejuvenation Pill, just the word "pill" alone was enough for many people to fight for it.
However, when they arrived at Hundred Herb Hall, it was abnormally quiet. Perhaps they were afraid that they would be chased out by Hundred Herb Hall if they made too much noise.
"Everyone, almost everyone is here today." Shopkeeper Zhao coughed dryly and said with a smile, "Because we didn't prepare a lot of pills, only twenty people will be able to get pills. Since there are already twenty people here, those who arrive late will not have a place. However, we're not only selling Beauty Rejuvenation Pills today, we're also selling Longevity Pills."
Everyone's heart skipped a beat when they heard Shopkeeper Zhao's words.
