A few days ago, the Young Lady had taken a liking to a weapon which was far too expensive. If we collect the toll fees from these people, the Young Lady would have the money to purchase that weapon.
Compared to the weapon that the Young Lady needs, what are these people?
How could they compare to our esteemed Young Lady?
They should feel honored that they have to pay for the Young Lady's weapon yet they still don't know what's good for them.
"I'll say it one more time, get out of the way!"
Gu Ruoyun furrowed her brows but her voice remained as calm as ever.
"Damned girl, you refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!" The leader's expression changed and he bellowed angrily, "Guards, seize this woman!"
"Yes, my Lord."
Upon receiving this order, the group of city guards charged towards Gu Ruoyun. Their fierce gazes were no different from that of bandits.
"Go away!"
Boom!
A powerful aura erupted from Gu Ruoyun's body. The armored soldiers who were charging towards her felt as if they had been hit by a strong gust of wind. They were instantly swept away and crashed violently onto the ground.
"I've told you, I don't have time to waste here."
Once she had said her piece, she did not even look at the ashen faced leader as she stepped into the city.
Just then, a tsundere voice sounded from the front, filled with obvious dissatisfaction.
"What are you making a ruckus for?"
"My Lady?"
The leader's eyes lit up and he quickly turned towards the front. When he saw the woman on a fine horse, he quickly complained, "This woman refused to pay the toll fee and refused to follow us back to see the Lady. We were just about to teach her a lesson when we didn't expect you to show up, my Lady."
The magnificently dressed woman furrowed her brows and looked at the fallen soldiers on the ground. She scoffed icily, "Did you want to teach someone a lesson or did someone else teach you a lesson?"
Hearing this, the leader's expression turned into an ugly shade and he glared fiercely at Gu Ruoyun.
If it had not been for this woman, I would never have been scolded by the Lady.
"A bunch of useless things." Nangong Yue, who was dressed in splendid robes, scoffed. She then turned towards Gu Ruoyun and curled her lips into a smile, "My Lady, this is Tranquil Mountain City. You refused to pay the toll fee and even injured Tranquil Mountain City's soldiers. Don't you know that this is unreasonable? It doesn't matter if you don't have the toll. I can give you a chance. I can see that you're quite strong. Why don't you be my bodyguard for ten years? Originally, it would take you ten years to earn ten thousand gold coins. I will offset ten thousand gold coins a year. How about it? "
Since this woman could defeat this group of useless things, her strength should be quite good. Looking at her clothes, she couldn't take out that much money. It was better to be a good person and give her such a chance.
One had to know that this kind of opportunity was something that others could only dream of.
Ten thousand gold coins a year, and one could join the City Lord's Mansion. How many people dreamed of this?
Nangong Yue believed that this woman would never reject such a good offer.
"I'm sorry." At this moment, a calm voice rang out. "I'm not interested."
What?
This time, Nangong Yue was not the only one who was shocked. Even the surrounding crowd was stunned.
The Eldest Lady of Tranquil Mountain City was cruel and greedy. Everyone in the vicinity knows about this. If anyone refuses to pay the toll and tries to force their way through, they would be beaten into a cripple. In serious cases, they might even lose their lives! Who would have thought that the cruel and greedy Big Sister Nangong would let one person go, but that person refused!
