"I'm sure that many of you have heard about me and have always been curious about my existence. I've invited everyone here today to make an announcement! From now on, I am the governor of Black Rock City. Not only that, I will make Black Rock City the most powerful existence in the Plain Hills. "
Gu Ruoyun smiled once again and continued to speak, "You've all seen the situation in Black Rock City. I'm not just saying this, it will come true one day."
Hearing this, the governors began to whisper amongst themselves.
That was right, the power of Black Rock City had shocked them and it also proved that this young governor must have a powerful backer. It was best to avoid provoking someone like this as much as possible. Otherwise, if they were to anger the mysterious power behind her, the entire governor's palace would be finished.
"Furthermore," Gu Ruoyun paused and smiled, "I'd like to inquire about something."
"What is it, Governor of Black Rock City?"
The governor of Heavenly Feather City smiled and asked.
"My surname is Gu, you may call me Lady Gu." Gu Ruoyun paused and continued to speak, "Actually, the main reason why I've invited you here is to inquire about something. I wonder if any of you have any information regarding the Hell's Lotus?"
The Hell's Lotus?
Hearing these words, everyone looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
The Hell's Lotus was the most precious item in the Banished Lands. Similarly, no one knew where the Hell's Lotus could be found.
Hence, when Gu Ruoyun saw the expressions on their faces, she sighed in disappointment once again.
Just as she was about to speak, an elderly voice suddenly chimed in, "The Hell's Lotus, I think I've heard of its existence in the hands of someone else."
This voice was like the sound of nature, causing Gu Ruoyun's eyes to instantly light up. However, she quickly returned to normal.
"If you can tell me this information, I'll give you the last remaining pot of tea."
Gu Ruoyun calmed the excitement in her heart and purposely lowered her voice as she spoke.
The pot of tea that she had mentioned was also made from melted pills. After all, she would not casually take out pills in front of these organizations.
However, even if it was just a pot of tea, it was enough to make one's breath quicken.
"It's an elder of the Ye family." The elder stared at the pot of tea in front of Gu Ruoyun and gulped, "Elder Ye Lan of the Ye family had obtained a Hell's Lotus over ten years ago. However, this information was from many years ago. Even now, we don't know if that Hell's Lotus is still in the Ye family."
Ye Lan?
Gu Ruoyun's eyes darted back and forth. If she had known that he had the Hell's Lotus, she would have asked him about it when he was still in Black Rock City.
Unfortunately, Ye Lan has already returned to the Ye family home.
But no matter what, she couldn't give up this last chance.
The Ye Clan … She had to make a trip there.
This was the only way to save Xiao Ye.
"Alright, this pot of water belongs to you. Master Murong, I'll leave the rest to you. I'll head down first."
Gu Ruoyun slowly rose from her seat and walked out of the banquet hall.
Facing the sunlight outside the door, she stretched and then returned to her room.
"Since I now know about the Hell's Lotus, I must get it for Xiao Ye as soon as possible. Now that the matter in Black Rock City has come to an end, it's time for me to leave."
