Gu Ruoyun saw through Lan Yuge's thoughts and hurriedly explained, "Actually, I was lucky. A few days ago, I came across a rare treasure. It was that treasure that helped me reach the peak of a high-level Martial King. That's why I was able to break through in a month."
Lucky?
Lan Yuge shook her head. She has never believed in luck. Gu Ruoyun's ability to improve so quickly in such a short period of time may have had something to do with her luck but it was definitely not just luck alone.
Furthermore, most youngsters would not say that they had relied on external help when others found out that they had increased their strength so quickly. They would only take all the credit. Yet, she had given an explanation as to why she had been able to break through so quickly, and even pushed the blame to luck.
Lan Yuge finally understood how she had managed to grow to where she was today...
"Maternal grandmother," Gu Ruoyun saw Lan Yuge walk out and rose from Qianbei Ye's arms to welcome her, "It's your birthday tomorrow. Come with me, maternal grandmother."
Lan Yuge was slightly shaken and her eyes filled with sorrow, "Yun'er, I've told you that no matter what you say, I will never leave this mountain."
That was her punishment for herself …
"Grandmother, do you really not want to see that old man?" Gu Ruoyun raised her eyebrows, "You may be punishing yourself by not seeing the person you love but isn't this also punishing others? If you truly want to avenge Mother, you can't hide in the mountain like a coward. You should face reality with courage and make the Dongfang family stronger. Only when the family is strong can you avenge her. "
Stronger?
Lan Yuge was shaken. That organization is so powerful, can we really fight against them?
This was something that the Lan Yuge of the past could never have imagined.
But...
Lan Yuge's brows were moved as she stared at the young girl's bright and dazzling smile.
Perhaps this little girl could become my only hope for revenge...
"Alright."
Lan Yuge smiled and her eyes curved into crescents, glistening with autumn light, "Then I promise you, I'll leave the mountain with you tomorrow."
"Alright, then we'll wait until the birthday to leave. Let's keep that old man in a bit of a hurry."
Gu Ruoyun blinked as the corners of her lips curled.
Qianbei Ye had not said a single word from the very beginning. His blood-red phoenix eyes followed the young girl's figure closely as his peerlessly beautiful face lit up with a warm smile.
"Xiao Yun, in this life, no matter what you do, I will always be by your side. I will never leave you."
…
The stars were sparse in the night.
The courtyard of the Dongfang Family was brightly lit and the candlelight flickered.
Everyone knew that Lan Yuge, who had been living in seclusion at the back of the mountains for a long time, would make an appearance tonight. In order to curry favor with the true number one cultivator, the leaders of many organizations had brought along their unmarried women to attend the banquet, hoping to use Lan Yuge to promote their women to Dongfang Shaoze.
Even though everyone knew what the person beside them was thinking, they still didn't forget to feign civility and politely praise the beauty and talent of the woman beside him in this kind of situation.
At this moment, the old man no longer had his usual dignified and fierce image. His eyes were filled with anticipation and nervousness as he stared outside the door. He even ignored the people who came to strike up a conversation.
