Just then, a series of knocks sounded from outside the door.
"Great Master Gu, Elder Feng of Wind Valley is here to visit."
Wind Valley, Elder Feng?
Gu Ruoyun raised her brow, "Have the members of Wind Valley not left yet?"
"I don't know."
Bai Zhongtian shook his head and his eyes filled with vigilance, "This old man is definitely up to no good. No, we won't meet him!"
What a joke! How could I possibly allow the old man from Wind Valley to meet my disciple? I have not forgotten that this old man had tried to snatch my precious disciple away.
"Master, since he has come knocking on our door, I'd like to see what he wants." Gu Ruoyun gently curled the corners of her lips as a light flashed in her eyes. "I know what you're worried about but no matter how bold Wind Valley is, they can't possibly attack in broad daylight! Hence, I won't be in danger. "
"This..." Bai Zhongtian hesitated for a moment before he nodded in the end, "Alright, I'd like to see what this old man is up to this time!"
Hearing this, Gu Ruoyun turned towards the tightly shut door and calmly replied, "Let him in."
"Yes, Great Master Gu."
Just as the Medicine Sect disciple's voice rang out, the door was pushed open. Soon after, the white-robed Elder Feng walked in. He hesitated for a moment as he stepped through the door. Soon after, his footsteps became firm as he straightened his back and walked towards Gu Ruoyun.
"One doesn't come to a temple without a cause. Speak, what business do you have here?"
Bai Zhongtian scoffed. He does not have a good impression of the members of Wind Valley.
Who had asked them to help Elder Huang and his daughter bully my precious disciple?
Elder Feng's expression instantly turned distressed. He had wanted to fly into a rage but he did not know why but in the end, he held himself back. His clear and bright eyes turned towards Gu Ruoyun as he spoke slowly, "I'm here to fulfill my promise!"
"Promise? What promise?"
Gu Ruoyun was shocked as she stared at Elder Feng's face in confusion.
"Previously, I had said that if you can successfully refine a pill, I would acknowledge you as my Master. Now, I'm here to fulfill my promise."
Elder Feng seemed to have used up all the energy in his body as he spoke. His expression no longer displayed his initial arrogance and had instead become much more humble.
Gu Ruoyun and Bai Zhongtian were a little surprised by Elder Feng's sudden change in attitude. After all, this old man did not seem like the kind of person who would keep his word.
Would he fulfill his promise and become Gu Ruoyun's disciple?
Gu Ruoyun shrugged her shoulders at the thought of this and smiled nonchalantly, "I've long forgotten about that matter. There's no need for you to remember it so clearly, Elder Feng. I can pretend that you've never said anything."
"No, I have to keep my word." Elder Feng seemed to have made a great decision as he stared straight at Gu Ruoyun. "I know that I had been too arrogant in the beginning which was why I had looked down on you. Now, your power has completely convinced me. That's why I want to acknowledge you as my Master."
"What?" Gu Ruoyun smiled but her smile was filled with ridicule, "Previously, you had tried to force me to acknowledge you as my master and now you want to force me to accept you as my disciple? Is this how the cultivators of Wind Valley do things? "
Hearing this, Elder Feng's expression became even more embarrassed. He replied shyly, "Lady Gu, I have indeed realized my mistake. Don't worry, I won't force you and I won't allow Wind Valley to force you either. You are a powerful cultivator and worthy of respect. Even if you're unwilling to accept me as your disciple now, in my heart, you will always be my Master."
Once he had said his piece, he did not give Gu Ruoyun any chance to reply. He turned around and walked out of the room. Soon, his figure disappeared under the bright afternoon sun.
"Has this fellow taken the wrong medicine? What the hell is he up to? "
Bai Zhongtian stared at Elder Feng in bewilderment. He simply could not understand what was wrong with this old man.
He does not believe that Elder Feng was the kind of person who would keep his word and be open and aboveboard! Wind Valley must be plotting something!
