Gu Ruoyun nodded and did not say anything else.
Grand Lord Hong Lian gave her a few final instructions before asking her to get some rest. He then walked out of the room. Not long after he had left, an elderly figure pushed the door open and walked in with a sorrowful look on his face.
"Master, it's so late at night. What business do you have with me?" Gu Ruoyun looked at the sorrowful look in Bai Zhongtian's eyes and raised an eyebrow as she asked with a forced smile.
Bai Zhongtian stared at Gu Ruoyun gloomily, "Little girl, why didn't you tell me that Grand Lord Hong Lian is your biological father in this life?"
"You didn't ask me."
Gu Ruoyun curled her lips and shrugged her shoulders.
"Forget it, forget it. I won't bicker with you over this matter. By the way, what do you plan to do after this?" Bai Zhongtian's eyes darted back and forth as a sinister smile appeared on his elderly features.
Gu Ruoyun looked at the sinister smile on the old man's face and asked, "If you have something to say, just say it."
"Hehe, it's like this," Bai Zhongtian rubbed his hands together and smiled at Gu Ruoyun, "Not too long ago, the Medicine Sect's Sect Master had discovered a pill formula that had been left behind from ancient times. He had invited all the great doctors to study it together. I've decided to ask you to accompany me there. It's said that if anyone can refine the pill on that pill formula, the Medicine Sect will gift their territory to that person."
Gu Ruoyun shook her head and said, "I'm not interested."
"What?" Bai Zhongtian nearly jumped up. His previously mischievous smile vanished and he glared fiercely at Gu Ruoyun, "Do you know what territory he's offering? It's the Northern Block Territory! This territory is rich in countless precious medicinal herbs. Those famous medicines that have been sold for astronomical prices in the auction house all originate from the Northern Block Territory! However, the great forces in the Northern Block Territory are intertwined with each other so the Medicine Sect has never been able to properly manage it. Hence, they've decided to offer it as a reward. "
Bai Zhongtian took a deep breath and continued to speak, "Little girl, I believe in your power. Based on your power, you will certainly be able to unify the Northern Block Territory. Furthermore, even if you don't become the Grand Lord of the Northern Block Territory, you will at least be able to freely enter the Northern Block Territory and pluck those extremely precious medicinal herbs."
Since the Northern Block Territory was the Medicine Sect's territory, anyone who wished to enter the Northern Block Territory would need the Medicine Sect's approval. Of course, if they managed to obtain the territory, they would no longer need the Medicine Sect's approval.
However, there were far too many powerful organizations in the Northern Block Territory. This was also the reason why the Medicine Sect had not been able to fully utilize this territory despite owning it.
"Northern Block Territory?"
A glint flashed across Gu Ruoyun's eyes.
"Master, when are we leaving?"
The Northern Block Territory was indeed the place with the most medicinal herbs on the East Peak Mainland. She would also need countless precious medicinal herbs to heal Yu'er's arm so she was determined to get her hands on the Northern Block Territory!
Bai Zhongtian's eyes lit up when he heard that Gu Ruoyun had finally agreed to his request. His elderly face was like a blooming chrysanthemum flower as he smiled and said, "We'll leave tomorrow!"
Tomorrow?
Gu Ruoyun gently stroked her chin as she fell into deep thought.
Initially, she had planned to break through to the rank of a high-level Martial Honor before leaving Drifting Wind Country. Now, it looks like that would not be possible. No matter what, the Medicine Sect's general meeting was more important! Besides, she was also very interested in the ancient pill formula.
