Hearing this, a thoughtful look flashed across the scholar's refined features. He then put his fan away as if he was thinking about Mo Liyou.
"Lord Mo, there are so many of us. The Murong family won't make a difference. I don't believe that we can't enter these ruins without them." Yeh Luo laughed icily and glared hatefully at Gu Ruoyun.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the scholar glared at him coldly.
It was a very normal look but it caused Yeh Luo's entire body to break out in a cold sweat. He was so frightened that he no longer dared to raise his head. He lowered his head tightly as if the scholarly scholar was some kind of terrifying monster.
"Master Mo is right." The scholar waved his fan again and looked at Gu Ruoyun. He smiled calmly, "Lady Gu, if you manage to leave these ruins alive, we can discuss the matter of who the treasure belongs to. What do you say?"
Gu Ruoyun's expression remained as calm as ever. Her dark eyes were as still as a lake without a single ripple. However, her heart was already racking her brains to come up with a plan to deal with the upcoming situation.
In the past, she could rely on Zixie. It was also because Zixie was by her side that she had no fear towards anything.
Now that Zixie could not appear, suppressing the spiritual beasts in the Ancient Divine Pagoda was her limit! However, while this method may be effective against spiritual beasts, greedy humans would see through it sooner or later.
Since she could no longer rely on Zixie, this time, she must think of a solution on her own.
She did not care about anyone else. The only one who could make her feel threatened was this frail scholar!
"Eldest Lady, let's go."
Master Murong heaved a sigh of relief. Since Gu Ruoyun's identity has been exposed, he no longer addressed her as Lady Gu. Instead, he addressed her as Eldest Lady.
"Alright."
Gu Ruoyun collected her thoughts and did not say anything else. However, before she left, she subconsciously glanced at Mo Liyou.
She wondered if this man was truly doing this for the sake of strength or... Was he trying to help me?
No matter what, she owed him a favor.
...
The Tomb was very quiet. It was so quiet that only the sound of footsteps could be heard.
Everyone walked along the long pathway carefully, afraid that they would accidentally step into a trap.
Yeh Luo glared venomously at Gu Ruoyun's figure with a malevolent look in his eyes.
Even though she didn't kill Ye Fan, he died because she didn't save him! Therefore, the hatred of killing his son was absolutely irreconcilable! As long as he was given a chance, he would make this woman accompany his grandson in death!
Was it enough to snatch the treasure from her hands? No! This was far from enough! Even if she died, it would not be able to make up for the pain of losing her son!
"Bodyguard Gu, that old fart has been staring at you all this time." Ye Nuo curled his lips and spoke indignantly, "Today has been an eye-opener for me. In all my years, no one has ever seen anyone force someone to hand over their treasure. If they don't hand it over, they're shameless! If my grandfather was here and saw such shameless people, he would definitely slap them to death! Bodyguard Gu, come home with me after we leave this place. My old man may not have any other abilities, but at least he can protect you from harm. "
Ye Nuo's heart was filled with anger at the thought of what had just happened. He regretted not listening to his grandfather's advice and focusing on his cultivation. Otherwise, if he was as powerful as his grandfather, who would dare to bully his people in front of him?
