The Wild Empress of the Evil Emperor
20. Chapter 20: Who Doesn't Use It? (1)
"Older Hun Fei." Gu Panpan bit his lips and glanced at Gu Ruoyun, then returned to Hun Fei. "It's not hard for me to say it, but everyone in the Azure Dragon Country knows this. After reaching level two in the Qi Collection ranks, Gu Ruoyun, from my family, had not been able to obtain her breakthrough. So, I'm afraid he can't enter the Celestial Spirit Formation right now."
As he explained, Gu Panpan's face was filled with sympathy, as if he was truly pitying Gu Ruoyun. No one could see the other expression on his face
"Oh?" Hun Fei followed Gu Panpan's gaze towards Gu Ruoyun's relaxed and satisfied face. "He is Gu Ruoyun? Gu Shengxiao's sister? He doesn't seem like a kid anymore. How could he be level two in the Qi Collection range? How could a genius like Gu Shengxiao have something useless? for a sister? It certainly opens the eyes."
Many years ago, Gu Shengxiao had turned down his apprentice offer. It has humiliated him endlessly! So, naturally, he would not show any courtesy to Gu Ruoyun.
"Elder, everyone in the Azure Dragon Country knows this. I myself pity him very much, but he's very determined, so I don't have much choice." Gu Panpan looked very helpless like a mother who hated her child for not meeting expectations.
"Gu Panpan, you ..."
Luo Yin clenched her fists furiously. Just as he was about to throw his fist, a hand stretched out and held his hand tightly.
The corner of Gu Ruoyun's lips lifted into a smile, her beautiful face shining in an enigmatic manner. "Gu Panpan, sorry to disappoint you, but since last night, I have broken through to level three in the Qi Collection range."
His voice was calm like the wind, yet it was clearly heard to every ear present.
Just then, Gu Panpan's expression stiffened, as if he had been slapped hard. He wanted to find a hole and bury himself in it.
Taking a deep breath, Gu Panpan laughed. "In that case, I have to congratulate you. It took you years to finally break through to level three. But who knows how long you'll have to wait until the next breakthrough? I'm sure in about ten years, you will definitely reach level four."
"Don't worry, I will definitely get my breakthrough before you die."
Pfft!
Luo Yin could not help herself. He laughed out loud and patted Gu Ruoyun on the shoulder. "Ruoyun, do you mean to say that once you break through to level four, the day of his death will not be long? In that case, Gu Panpan might have to take care of himself. Once Ruoyun manages to break through, you better hide somewhere or you might mysteriously expire. Tsk tsk, wouldn't it be a pity if a face as beautiful as that dies so quickly?"
Gu Panpan's face changed from green to white, it was a spectacular sight. However, Gu Ruoyun began to admire his tolerance level. He was actually able to maintain his composure without retreating after suffering the humiliation from Luo Yin.
"Gu Ruoyun, you better watch your mouth!" General Gu's face sank as he exclaimed violently, "And General Luo, is this your way of educating your daughter? He showed absolutely nothing to his upbringing!"
"God?" General Luo sneered, "At least, I didn't beat up my own granddaughter until she almost died without clarifying the truth of the matter. I'm way ahead of you, old man."
To be honest, General Luo could not understand it.
"Gu Ruoyun is still the flesh and blood of the Gu Family," he thought, "However, this old man recklessly beat her up, and all for the sake of that little boy from the Ling Family? He almost beat her to death! Is this how a grandfather should behave?"
