The Wild Empress of the Evil Emperor
53. Chapter 53: The Rise of the Almighty Army (1)
There was a courtyard located right on the outskirts of the Imperial City, sitting in the middle of a dense forest that covered the sky and the sun completely, but at this moment, it was, slowly the grounds appeared before Gu Ruoyun's eyes under Elder Yu's lead.
"I never thought that such a place would exist in the Hundred Herb Hall." Gu Ruoyun smiled faintly, "This place seems to be quite a match for me growing up and becoming an adult in secret. Until my fur grows up, I don't want anyone to know about my current strength."
Slightly smiling, Elder Yu turned around and looked at Gu Ruoyun. "This is the place where the young master used to do his training. Its exterior was surrounded by the Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation. Unless there was a guide leading the way, no one else could come to this place. When the young master heard that you wanted to train and cultivate your strength, he asked me to show this place to you, Lady Gu."
Dongfang Shaoze's?
Stunned in surprise, Gu Ruoyun fused her willow-shaped brows and asked, "Actually, what is the relationship between your young master and my parents? Why does he keep helping me non-stop.
"I'm afraid I can't tell you right now, please forgive me. When the right time comes for you to know the truth, the young master will definitely explain everything to you without a doubt. It's just that, sometimes, knowing too much will bring more harm than good. The young master only expects your health from the bottom of his heart."
These days, the current Dongfang family was no longer the same as it used to be. Even the young master himself was in deep distress and overwhelming tribulation at this moment. At such a time, how could the young master bear to drag him down with him as well?
Especially now that his strength was still not strong enough...
Seeing how Elder Yu refused to say a word, Gu Ruoyun stopped her question. He calmly gathered his thoughts and finally said, "Let's go, take me to the people you have chosen for me."
...
Inside the courtyard, the moment Gu Ruoyun entered the entrance, she could feel countless gazes with sharp vigilance directed towards her. Without saying a word, he unhurriedly looked at everyone in the courtyard.
And this is what he was looking for.
"Perhaps from the very beginning, Elder Yu has told all of you about the purpose for which you are here, but I'm sure it never comes to your mind that the one who asked you all is a little girl like me." Gu Ruoyun smiled faintly, a smile so bright that it could not be ignored. "Maybe none of you would be willing to submit, thinking that a little girl like me should not give orders to any of you. But let me tell you one thing, if you really want to change your destiny and turn things around.Table around the bastard who has bullied you, you know, as well as obtaining the highest absolute power in this world, then you must listen and obey my every command!"
Undoubtedly, Gu Ruoyun had realized the unwillingness of the eyes of this group of people from the very beginning.
Although they have sunk into their current state because of certain things they do, that does not mean that they will be willing to submit and obey a little girl who is not even in her twenties yet.
"Hurmphs! Since you have such big words, why don't you show your strength and impress us?"
At this moment, a sneering sneer could occur sounding loud.
Following the source of the voice, Gu Ruoyun's gaze was fixed on a shabbily dressed young man in green. Smiling slightly, he asked, "What's your name?"
"Xun Feng."
With his head held high in an arrogant manner, he replied coldly.
"Not bad." Gu Ruoyun glanced at Xun Feng and slightly nodded her head, "You have arrogance and your emotions also seem to be quite good. Here, I will not suppress your attitude. None of you need to worry too much or hold back. As for my strength that you requested, I will show you my true strength if you manage to pass my exam. How about that? I wonder if you have the guts to try it?''
