"My Lady, Sir Lu, you're back so soon."
At this moment, outside Black Rock City, when Gu Ruoyun and her group appeared, a middle-aged man quickly rushed towards them and exclaimed in joy, "Did you find the Universal Sacred Fruit?"
Murong Yan's eyes darkened slightly as she shook her head, "Uncle Liu, I couldn't find the Universal Sacred Fruit to heal Grandfather's injuries. I was also attacked by a horde of spiritual beasts..."
Murong Yan had wanted to tell him about how she had been framed but Lu Shaochen stopped her with a look.
"Uncle Liu, let's go back and see the Master first."
Lu Shaochen turned away and smiled as he spoke.
Uncle Liu's face was initially filled with disappointment but when he heard Murong Yan's words, his heart immediately tensed up, "My Lady, Sir Lu, are you alright?"
"We're fine," Lu Shaochen smiled, "Fortunately, we met Lady Gu. She saved us."
"Oh?"
Uncle Liu was shocked. He turned to look at the blood-covered woman next to Lu Shaochen and felt a sense of astonishment. He then thanked her gratefully, "Thank you, Lady, for saving our lives."
Seeing this, Ye Nuo hurriedly interjected, "She's my bodyguard!"
In other words, if she wanted to thank him, she should never forget about him.
However, Gu Ruoyun seems to be used to Ye Nuo's words and did not say much. She smiled calmly, "There's no need for thanks. Let me find a place to freshen up first."
By now, the blood on her face had dried up and turned brown. It was an extremely uncomfortable sight. Unfortunately, there was no water in the forest and Murong Yan and the others had lost their water bottle during their escape. Hence, she could only wash off the blood on her body once she arrived at Black Rock City.
"Uncle Liu, take Lady Gu to freshen up." Lu Shaochen instructed Uncle Liu. He then turned to Gu Ruoyun and said, "Lady Gu, this is your first time here. Why don't you stay in Black Rock City for a while? Coincidentally, there will be a grand auction in Black Rock City in a few days' time. Lady Gu, you can attend it with the Murong family. "
An auction?
Gu Ruoyun gently stroked her chin.
Zixie had only told her to come to the Banished Lands to search for the Hell's Lotus but he had not told her where it was located. Perhaps she could try her luck at the auction.
"Alright."
Gu Ruoyun nodded, "Since that's the case, I'll stay a little longer."
Lu Shaochen was delighted, "Then let's go to the Murong family home first."
Ye Nuo had no objections to Gu Ruoyun's decision. He was here to have fun, so it didn't matter where he went.
Most importantly, he was now very interested in his bodyguard.
…
At the Murong family home. Murong Yan had just stepped through the front door when a delicate and beautiful figure hurried towards her. Her beautiful face was filled with joy.
"Yan 'er, you're finally back."
As she spoke, she grabbed Murong Yan's hand and her eyes welled up with tears, "You've made me very worried during this period of time."
At that moment, Murong Yan remembered everything that had happened to her in the forest. She withdrew her hand without a trace and spoke in a distant voice, "Big Sister, you've really put in a lot of effort."
Murong Rou'er was shaken. She stared at her hand with an ugly look on her face and forced a smile on her beautiful face.
"What's wrong with you, Yan'er? You've suddenly become so distant with me. You don't know how worried I've been when you weren't around. It's a pity that I don't have the ability. Otherwise, I would've gone to find Grandfather's healing panacea on your behalf. "
