If a genius like that were to still be alive, what kind of power would she have by now?
The pupil had surpassed the master. Dongfang Yu's daughter was even more elegant than she had been in the past.
In fact, her luck was much better than hers.
"Elder Changjin, you're wrong," Dongfang Linli sneered, "I don't think that girl has the ability to take up this position! So what if she's the Master of the Hundred Herb Hall? So what if she's a Martial Emperor? The Three Great Authorities do not only look at power when selecting talents. Do you think that the Three Great Authorities would tolerate her inhumane nature? I've long heard of her bloodthirsty behavior and the number of vengeful spirits in her hands. If she were to join the Dongfang family, she would bring great disaster upon the Dongfang family. "
He paused for a moment before continuing, "I'm thinking for the Dongfang family. Master, you must not study like this and destroy the entire Dongfang family for the sake of a mere woman!"
Dongfang Linli's words were filled with awe-inspiring righteousness. He would never admit that fighting against Gu Ruoyun was for his daughter's sake!
It was that damned girl's fault for disobeying Yan'er's orders! She had even caused Yan'er, who had done nothing wrong, to be forced to resign from her position as the Enforcer General.
"Bring great disaster upon the Dongfang family? I wonder if you're talking about me? "
A gentle laugh sounded from outside the door. Following that, the door to the meeting room was slowly pushed open. An indifferent young girl dressed in green robes appeared in the doorway. Next to her stood a peerlessly beautiful silver-haired man. His red eyes swept calmly across the crowd in the meeting room before turning towards the young girl next to him.
Dongfang Linli furrowed his brows and scoffed coldly, "This is the meeting room, who gave you permission to enter? What an uncultured wild girl. She doesn't know any manners at all! "
"I was the one who called her here. What? Are you unhappy with my decision? "
A stern voice suddenly rang in his ear. The tone was filled with dissatisfaction and anger, causing Dongfang Linli to tremble uncontrollably.
He slowly turned around and smiled insincerely, "Since this is your decision, Master, I'll allow them to listen in. However, you seem to have forgotten the Dongfang family's rules. Outsiders are not allowed to participate in any of the Dongfang family's meetings!"
As he spoke, Dongfang Linli deliberately emphasized the word 'outsiders'.
"That's right. Elder Lin Li is right. Patriarch, as the patriarch of the family, you must set a good example. Otherwise, how can you let everyone be shrewd?"
"Lord Master, Elder Lin Li is only thinking for the sake of the Dongfang family. Please do not forget the rules of the Dongfang family."
The moment they heard Dongfang Linli's words, the old fellows who had always been close to him hurriedly nodded and pointed as they spoke.
"Is it really for the Dongfang Family, or is it to avenge your daughter?" Master Dongfang's astute eyes swept coldly across Dongfang Linli before finally turning towards Gu Ruoyun, "Little girl, I've called you here because I have something to discuss with you. I want you to change your surname to Dongfang, what do you think?"
Hearing this, Gu Ruoyun raised an eyebrow, "I refuse."
"Why?"
The old man's anger flared up. Did this girl really not know the reason why he asked her to change her surname?
If her surname was Dongfang, let's see if these old fellows would still dare to utter a word of nonsense!
"Honestly, I don't have any feelings for the Gu family, but …" Gu Ruoyun paused, "Gu Tian is my father and Gu Shengxiao is my elder brother! Their surname is Gu, so I'm Gu Ruoyun! "
