As soon as Gu Ruoyun stepped into Black Rock City, she sensed that the citizens of the city were staring at her strangely. She frowned but she did not think too much about it as she headed towards the Murong family home.
Of course, she did not know that every aristocratic family had already passed down her portrait before she had returned. They were afraid that any disciple who had never seen Gu Ruoyun would be ignorant enough to provoke this murderous god! This murderous god had even destroyed the Wolf's Fang Robbers. If she wanted to destroy them, it would be a piece of cake.
Hence, when they saw the figure in green robes entering the city, everyone could not help but make way for her. They stared at the woman with either longing or fear in their eyes...
By now, the Murong family had already received the news. They were all waiting outside the gates, waiting for her return.
Hence, just as Gu Ruoyun reached the Murong family gates, a figure quickly rushed out from behind the gates. A soft little body slammed fiercely into Gu Ruoyun's arms with a smile as bright as the sun.
"Bodyguard Gu, I knew that you'd be alright."
Ye Nuo blinked his eyes, which were as dazzling as the stars, and grinned at the woman in front of him.
"What are you all doing here?" Gu Ruoyun raised her eyebrows and stared at the Murong family members who were waiting at the gates. Her voice was filled with astonishment.
"Eldest Lady, you're really alright."
Master Murong was so moved that his elderly eyes were brimming with tears. Only the Heavens know how the Murong family had managed to survive during Gu Ruoyun's absence. If the Black Cloud Auction House had not stood up for them, the Murong family would have disappeared from Black Rock City long ago.
"I thought that you..."
"Damned old man, you shut up!" Ye Nuo glared at Master Murong in dissatisfaction and scoffed arrogantly, "If it wasn't for the fact that you've cursed Bodyguard Gu for an entire year, I would have made sure your chrysanthemum would have burst open long ago!"
In Ye Nuo's heart, these people thought that Gu Ruoyun was dead so they were cursing her!
Otherwise, she was clearly alive and well. Why would these people say that she was dead?
"Let's go in first, there's something I need to discuss with you all."
Gu Ruoyun did not say much. She stared at the tearful Master Murong and slowly spoke.
"Yes, Eldest Lady."
Master Murong wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and quickly followed Gu Ruoyun into the room.
Murong Yan stared at the disappearing figure and opened her mouth to say something. However, in the end, she did not say anything.
…
In the great hall, Gu Ruoyun strode towards the main seat and looked at the crowd who had followed her. She then slowly spoke, "You've all worked hard this past year."
Along the way, she had already heard about the events that had transpired over the past year. Even though the Black Cloud Auction House's help had prevented the other organizations from attacking the Murong family, they had only managed to stop them from doing anything out in the open. The Black Cloud Auction House could not stop what was happening in the shadows.
However, the Murong family's current predicament was all because of her. If it had not been for her, those organizations would not have targeted the Murong family in such a manner.
"Eldest Lady, this is nothing." Master Murong shook his head and replied excitedly, "As long as you've returned, that's enough."
"Mm," Gu Ruoyun gently nodded, "By the way, you can distribute the Heavenly Spirit Fruit that we had obtained from the Tomb one year ago to all the Martial King disciples of the Murong family. I also have a pill that can help a Martial King to rise by one rank. You can distribute it along with the Heavenly Spirit Fruit to all the disciples. If the pill is combined with the Heavenly Spirit Fruit, it can help all the Martial Kings rise by at least two ranks."
