Eternal Glory? Everlasting Infamy? (1)

"What has happened outside?"

In the courtyard, Gu Ruoyun was sitting in a gazebo when she heard a sound from the outside. Her delicate brows arched slightly.

Elder Yu crinkled his brows in dissatisfaction. That shopkeeper Zhao is extremely useless, that he could not even handle a single person and had even startled the young lady. The young master had made it clear that absolutely no one from the Gu family can meet the young lady, or else how could he help the young lady to seek revenge.

"It is nothing, just a small fry," Elder Yu shook his head and smiled, "Young lady, you have requested for me. What may I do for you?"

"I have some matters that would require Elder Yu’s assistance," Gu Ruoyun’s finger gently glided across the stone pillar of the gazebo, a faint smile displayed on her exquisite and beautiful face, "I need a lethal team! As for the manpower, I believe Elder Yu will definitely help me to find them."

She had too many enemies and alone, she cannot achieve much. If she truly wanted to have a firm stand on this land, she needed an extremely powerful force!

That force, would be her starting point.

"Young lady, this old slave understands your meaning. This old slave will now go assemble the necessary manpower for you."

"Hold on."

As Elder Yu was turning and about to leave, Gu Ruoyun suddenly opened her mouth and stopped him in his tracks.

"Do you have any more orders, young lady?"

He turned back and looked at Gu Ruoyun, smiling as he asked.

"Deliver the herbs that are written on this piece of paper to my room later, I have something to take care of right now and I need to leave for a while."

After handing the piece of paper to Elder Yu, Gu Ruoyun walked out of the courtyard.

Ever since the day that she left the palace, she did not have to chance to say anything to Luo Yin, and now she needed to pay a visit to the Luo household…

In that instance, Luo Yin’s smiling face flashed through Gu Ruoyun’s mind, and a warm fuzzy feeling trickled through her insides. Perhaps, other than her elder brother, this woman was one of the people that cared most for her.

General Luo’s household was solemn and dignified, even the entrance to the household appeared more courtly than that of the Gu’s household.

Even though both served as generals of this dynasty, the Gu household gave off a luxurious impression whereas the Luo household gave the impression of intense solemness.

The people in the household knew Gu Ruoyun and understood her relation with Luo Yin, so they did not stop her when they saw her and just allowed her to enter. However, just as she stepped into the Luo household, she heard voices arguing, causing Gu Ruoyun’s brows to crinkle.

"General Luo, even if you do possess the blue sky fruit, it is very much useless to you. You do not have the slightest idea of handling it, there is no way you can use it. However, if you choose to pass the blue sky fruit to us, the Weapon Refining Sect would offer you with countless benefits."

Weapon Refining Sect?

Gu Ruoyun sneered. Could this be considered as bad luck, bumping into the enemy. She had not expected see people from the Weapon Refining Sect at the Luo household.

Moreover, Gu Ruoyun had not missed out on what the person from the Weapon Refining Sect had said.

Blue sky fruit!

Her breathing turned ragged.

This blue sky fruit was a kind of herb that was found in the swamps. Once it is consumed, the body would be immune to all kinds of poison and toxic, which means that there was no need for fear of poison users!

However, just as the Weapon Refining Sect had mentioned, the blue sky fruit needed to be handled in a unique manner, or else there was a possibility of the body exploding from the colossal power hidden within the fruit.

"Master Hun Fei, I have spent quite a large sum of gold to buy this blue sky fruit from a merchant in the Western Region, and as you said, it is not much of use to me. If you do need it, you can buy it back with gold. I will not ask too much of a price from you. I bought it with ten million gold coins. If you are willing to spend ten million gold coins, I can give it to you.

Ten million gold coins meant nothing to the Weapon Refining Sect.

But who is he? How could anyone even consider taking money from him? You must be dreaming.
