Defiance (2)

The two disciples of the Secret Order felt mildly annoyed. They laughed icily and were about to speak when they suddenly noticed Elder Tianren walking towards the oncoming Gu Ruoyun.

They were in shock as their eyes followed Elder Tianren's movement in astonishment.

Could it be that the elder knew that these people were spies with intentions of sneaking into the Secret Order? Was that why he had decided to act personally? However, that does not seem correct as well. There were no signs of anger on the elder's face and instead, he was smiling. Furthermore, it was unusual for Elder Tianren to be standing outside the gates. They suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

"Elder Tianren is actually here to personally greet us, you overwhelm us with your favor."

Despite her words, the smile on Gu Ruoyun's face was indifferent. There was no sign of surprise on her face at all.
