"Shopkeeper Zhao, please take care of him for me."
From the very beginning, Gu Ruoyun hadn't looked at Bai Chuan at all. She had only seen the young girl's elegant and determined figure. Bai Chuan's heart strangely calmed down, as if nothing would happen as long as she was by his side.
"Alright."
Shopkeeper Zhao, who had followed along, nodded and pulled Bai Chuan to one side. He stared worriedly at the figure in front of him.
Dressed in green robes, her fine black hair fluttering in the wind, the young girl's gaze fell upon the elder in front of her. She smiled, "You're a member of the Dark Yin Palace?"
"That's right!" Elder Liu sneered, "I'm an elder of the Dark Yin Palace. Someone has paid for your life! Even though the Dark Yin Palace has no grudge against you, since you've accepted the employer's mission, you must die! "
On the mainland, martial kings usually wouldn't attack commoners, especially those from sects and clans who were under the watchful eye of the Three Great Authorities. However, the Dark Yin Palace was indeed an exception. As long as someone issued a mission and the reward was acceptable, they would accept it! Furthermore, they were not under the jurisdiction of the Three Great Authorities.
Hence, the Dark Yin Palace was not as timid as the Weapon Refining Sect. As long as they wanted to kill someone, they would do it openly! In fact, they even had to notify them beforehand so that the person who was about to be killed could be prepared.
Gu Ruoyun sneered, "I'm taking Bai Chuan with me. You don't have any objections, do you?"
"He's only a tool. Once he's used up, he'll naturally be useless. However …" Elder Liu narrowed his eyes, "You can't leave! If you leave, I won't be able to complete my mission. "
After all, Imperial Concubine Ling had paid quite a good commission this time. Otherwise, he wouldn't have personally come to complete this mission.
"Don't worry, I have no intention of leaving!" Gu Ruoyun's smile deepened, but her clear eyes were filled with murderous intent, "Because we still have some debts to settle!"
She approached Elder Liu. In that moment, a murderous aura surged from her entire body, causing the young girl's features to become even colder.
"Furthermore, even if you don't say anything, I know that Imperial Concubine Ling was behind all of this. Otherwise, you wouldn't have appeared in the Ling family home. In the entire Ling family, only she has the power to hire an assassin from the Dark Yin Palace … However, if you want to kill me, come find me! You should never have touched my people! So, you must die, and she must die as well! "
Bai Chuan stared at the young girl's face which was filled with murderous intent. He felt as if his heart had been struck by a heavy hammer.
He did not know why, but at this moment, he had a feeling that perhaps, he would not regret following her …
It was only at this moment that Bai Chuan's heart truly submitted.
"Humph, how arrogant!"
Bang!
Elder Liu's expression turned cold. He slammed the table and stood up, leaping towards Gu Ruoyun. In an instant, a violent gust of wind rose, and the young girl's green robes fluttered in the wind.
Her expression didn't change from beginning to end, and a wisp of a ridiculing smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.
That smile seemed to be mocking Elder Liu for overestimating himself …
Boom!
Just as Elder Liu was about to kill Gu Ruoyun in a fit of rage, a white light suddenly shot out in front of her. A furious roar shook Elder Liu, who had yet to regain his senses, and forced him to take a few steps back.
"Yunyao, kill him!"
Gu Ruoyun stared coldly at Elder Liu as she spoke in a cold voice.
"Yes, Master."
The White Tiger responded. Her gaze turned leisurely towards Elder Liu, and a mocking smile hung on the corners of her lips. Then, she walked elegantly towards the old man …
