Gu Ruoyun then began to pack her belongings. Her fingers paused as she knocked against the black box that Mei Xue had given her.
"I can sense the aura of this box but I can't open it. Perhaps, I don't know how to open it?" She furrowed her brows and sighed, "Forget it, I'll keep it with me for now. I'll find a way to open it in the future."
She then tossed the box into the Ancient Divine Pagoda, packed all her belongings, pushed the door open and left.
Outside the door, a familiar face appeared in front of her, causing Gu Ruoyun to stop in her tracks.
"Are you leaving?" Murong Yan gently bit her lip and asked softly.
Gu Ruoyun nodded, "I've stayed here for far too long. Now that I've obtained the information that I need, it's time to leave this place."
"Then... Will you come back?"
"Yes."
Gu Ruoyun's reply was resolute and decisive.
If it was possible, she would love to bring these organizations out of the Banished Lands. However, she could not expose her final trump card, the Ancient Divine Pagoda, to anyone else. Hence, she had no other way of bringing them away.
"Murong Yan, the plants planted in the courtyard of the governor's mansion can intimidate other organizations. It will also attract the attention of others. I've set up a formation around the entire governor's mansion. If anyone tries to harm Black Rock City, you can order everyone in Black Rock City to hide here. That way, you won't have to worry about outsiders invading."
This formation had been given to her by Zixie back in Azure Dragon Country. Now, it had finally come in handy.
If it had not been for the existence of this formation, she would not have felt at ease exposing those precious plants in front of the world.
"Alright." Murong Yan nodded and her eyes carried a complicated look, "We will wait here for your return. Before that, the governor's mansion will always remain empty."
Gu Ruoyun smiled and did not say anything else. She then walked past Murong Yan and continued on her way. From the beginning to the end, she did not turn back at all. She only raised her hand and made a goodbye gesture. Her soft words, which were accompanied by her gentle words, became the last reflection in Murong Yan's eyes.
"Say goodbye to your grandfather and Lu Shaochen for me. I'll be leaving now. I'll come back to see you once I'm done."
Murong Yan stared at the woman's departing figure. Tears welled up in her eyes but she forced them back down.
She believed that one day, this woman would come back.
Whether it was a few years or a few decades, they would be waiting for her in Black Rock City...
If she forgot them, they would wait for her for the rest of their lives.
…
In the Plain Hills, the most mysterious place was the legendary Holy City.
It was said that every clan in Holy City had a few Martial Honors and any clan could easily destroy another city. Hence, this confirmed Holy City's position in the hearts of the people.
However, everyone knew that the legendary Ye Clan was the leader of the Sacred City!
The Ye family was truly a legendary existence, especially the Master of the Ye family, Ye Lan. To this day, no one knows what rank he is at! Perhaps he had already surpassed a Martial Honor! It was because of his existence that the Ye family had become the most powerful family in the Banished Lands.
However, aside from the few elders of the Ye family, very few people have ever seen Ye Lan. He rarely appears in public so even the residents of Holy City do not know what he looks like.
