Zuo Shangchen was shocked as he stared at Gu Ruoyun in astonishment.
Does this mean that she had known that that person was an imposter all along? She had only pretended that she did not know anything because she was afraid that this imposter would be so humiliated that he would kill her if she had exposed him?
Zuo Shangchen swallowed the pill at the thought of this. Instantly, a clear stream flowed through his body. He opened his mouth and realized that he could speak now.
"I'm sorry …"
If it had not been for him, he would not have dragged them down with him.
"Zuo Shangchen, you've helped me too many times so I don't regret saving you!"
She owed Zuo Shangchen far too much and she would never be able to repay him in this lifetime.
"Besides, even if you hadn't been here, that fellow would still have come looking for us!"
Zuo Shangchen laughed bitterly and sat down next to Gu Ruoyun.
"Yun 'er, there's something I'm not sure if I should tell you."
He turned around and looked at Gu Ruoyun. He hesitated for a moment before he spoke.
Gu Ruoyun calmly asked, "What is it?"
"Actually …" Zuo Shangchen lowered his eyelids as a sense of struggle flashed across his eyes. "I've never met my Master! Ever since I was young, Master had always communicated with me through a token! Back then, he had told me that my destiny was to rise in the east. That was why I had headed to Azure Dragon Country and met you there. "
Gu Ruoyun lowered her eyelids and did not interrupt. Instead, she listened quietly to Zuo Shangchen's words …
Zuo Shangchen sighed. "Later on, when I arrived in the First City, Master had asked me to get close to you and help you. He had also asked me not to tell anyone about his existence! Hence, I believed that Master was on good terms with you but he did not want you to know that he was helping you. "
"Then …" He paused before he continued, "I finally met my Master! He was wearing a mask and was very mysterious. He had asked me to bring you to the Deserted Snowlands. I had intended to follow Master's orders but who would have thought that I would accidentally discover Master's face under the mask! When I saw Master's face, I became suspicious. In order not to interfere with Shengxiao's treatment, I had asked someone to deliver the Sorcerer's Enchantment Blossom to you. I then asked Master why he had wanted to see you. "
Hearing this, Gu Ruoyun slowly understood the truth of the matter. The corners of her lips twitched but she did not say a word.
Zuo Shangchen glanced at her. "In the end, he became angry out of humiliation and forced me to deceive you. I didn't listen to his orders, so he used four bone spikes to nail me to the stone pillar! But what I didn't expect was that you still came … "
His eyes were filled with guilt.
"Xiao Yun 'er, I'm sorry. If I had pretended not to know anything at that time, he would not have pinned me to the stone pillar in anger and you would not have risked your life to come to this place in order to save me."
Gu Ruoyun shook her head. "I've said it before, this matter has nothing to do with you. Even without your involvement, he would still have used other methods to lure me here. By then, he might even kidnap my loved ones. Zuo Shangchen, I want to leave this formation now and the only way to break the formation is to break through to the ninth transformation state. For this reason, I don't want to be disturbed for the next few days!"
Zuo Shangchen nodded, his peach blossom eyes still filled with guilt.
"I understand. I won't disturb you."
In the beginning, Gu Ruoyun had indeed been worried for Qianbei Ye and had been in agony! However, she had quickly walked out of it and knew what she had to do! Qianbei Ye's actions were not wrong. As a cultivator at the late-stage of the refined state, she was no match for Cang Ming.
