As the people who had attended Lan Yuge's birthday celebration were all from the Dongfang family's subordinate families and as it had only been a short while, news of Gu Ruoyun's power had not spread. Everyone thought that she was still the same as she was back in Black Tortoise Country, a mere Martial King.
Actually, it was not surprising that everyone thought this way. Who would believe that she had advanced from a Martial King to a Martial Emperor in less than a year?
As for the Xia family, there was no need to even mention it. Aside from the people of Heaven City, everyone else was dead. In order to prevent the news of the holy spirit stone in her possession from spreading, Master Xia had long ordered that no one in Heaven City should know about it. Hence, Gu Ruoyun's breakthrough was not known to the world.
"Gu Ruoyun? You're not a member of the Dongfang family, why do you have the right to participate in the Divine Trials? " Xueyi stared at Dongfang Changjin with disdain, "Since when did the Dongfang family decline to the point where they need to seek outside help? Even if they did, they should have found someone stronger. Wouldn't sending her be equivalent to admitting defeat? "
Dongfang Changjin's expression changed. Just as she was about to speak, the young girl's calm voice slowly rang out.
"Dongfang Yu is my mother, why do I not have the right to participate?"
Her words were like a heavy blow, landing fiercely on everyone's hearts.
"She's Dongfang Yu's daughter? Didn't Dongfang Yu die a long time ago? Where did this daughter come from? "
"I remember that this Gu Ruoyun is Gu Tian's daughter. Gu Tian may not have been a member of an aristocratic family but he was also a peerless genius of his generation. Could it be that Dongfang Yu had eloped with Gu Tian?"
On the mainland, aside from a select few, no one else knew about what had happened that year. Naturally, they did not know about Gu Ruoyun's relationship with the Dongfang family.
Hence, upon hearing about such an important event, their hearts trembled as if they had been struck by lightning.
"Hehe," Upon hearing Gu Ruoyun's words, Xueyi's expression changed several times before returning to normal. She sneered, "I never thought that Dongfang Yu's daughter would be all grown up and would be participating in the Divine Trials! Unfortunately, you're far from being able to compare to your mother! You're only a mere Martial King, there's no way you can successfully pass the Trials. Of course, if you're willing to give these horses to the Medicine Order, I won't let you lose too badly! "
"Mm?" Gu Ruoyun stroked her chin and smiled as she nodded, "You're right. If you apologize to the Dongfang family for what you've just said, perhaps I won't let the Medicine Order lose too badly."
The crowd, who had been in a heated discussion, instantly quietened down when they heard Gu Ruoyun's words.
It was so quiet that the sound of a pin dropping on the ground could be heard clearly.
What did they just hear?
This young girl actually dared to boast that she would not let the Medicine Order lose too badly?
Was there something wrong with her, or was she crazy?
After all, Lady Rongyue of the Medicine Order is already a Martial Emperor. Aside from her, there are many other young geniuses in the Medicine Order! This was something that the Dongfang Family could never compare to.
Although the Dongfang Family was very powerful now, unfortunately, their descendants were not that great. Once Master Dongfang and Madam Lan have both passed away, the Dongfang Family will certainly fall into decline.
Therefore, they did not know what gave this woman the right to be so arrogant.
It was obvious that Rongyue was very displeased with Gu Ruoyun's words. Her brows furrowed even tighter as she glared at her coldly. However, Rongyue remained haughty and did not say a word as she continued to stare coldly back at her.
"With someone like you around, the Dongfang Family has truly reached its end." Xueyi's smile was filled with disdain and disdain, "It seems that the Heavens are truly fair. He had given Dongfang Yu such great talent but he had given her a flaw in her ability to bear children. Hence, she had given birth to an ignorant child with cerebral palsy! Gu Ruoyun, don't think that you're invincible just because you were lucky enough to obtain a few pill formulas! In the eyes of the Medicine Order, you're nothing! "
