Smack!

A slap was thrown across the face of the Second Madam by Second Master Gu. With his face livid with rage, he bellowed, "I have already told you not to come in the first place! All you do is only make the matter worse! Don't you dare to speak another word again, otherwise I will divorce you!"

Without sparing another glance towards her, he turned his gaze to Gu Ruoyun instead. This time, his tone softened, "Yun'er, I have come to welcome you back home now. Your grandfather is worried sick about your safety with you being all alone outside. I am concerned about you as well. With that mere power of yours, how do you expect to survive in this world? As long as you agree to come back home with me, the Gu family will certainly treasure you dearly. Your treatment will be no worse that Panpan's."

At that moment, the gaze of the Second Madam was raging with flame. It was as if it was going to burn and tear Gu Ruoyun up into thousands of pieces.

Nevertheless, having been warned by Second Master Gu just a moment ago, she didn't dare to attempt to speak a word.

"Welcome me home?" Gu Ruoyun glanced at Second Master Gu. "With such a parade? Why don't I feel like this is a welcome but more like an attempt to capture me instead? Besides, since the Gu family has decided to pass me to the Weapon Refining Sect and let my life and death be determined by fate instead, I am no longer part of your Gu Family! I could never ever cross such a huge threshold anyway. So, please leave."

The face of Second Master Gu flushed and turned paled as he listened to her. "Yun'er, I'm still your uncle no matter what. Don't make things difficult for us. If we were not able to bring you back, Young Master Dongfang would never ever let us off easily. Please help me with this favor, will you?"

In actual truth, the Gu family could save all these troubles by just telling Dongfang Shaoze the whereabouts of Gu Ruoyun. However, the Gu family was always more avaricious and what would they get in return by just giving him her address? What they really wanted was to let Gu Ruoyun build a good relationship with Dongfang Shaoze so that they could benefit from this as well.

It was just too bad that things would rarely go as they wished...

"What if I refused to go back?" Gu Ruoyun replied the middle-aged man in front of her with a smile, "How do you guys plan to deal with me then?"

"You little brat! How dare you?!" Not able to hold it in anymore, Second Madam shouted out loudly, "You ungrateful little bitch! We, the Gu family, raised you up till what you have become now and this is how you repay us? Such a malicious person you are! You really sure are the daughter of that doxy whore! You are just as much of a wench as she is!"

Even though Gu Ruoyun had never ever met her mother before, in her past life, her mother, who also was the guardian of her entire life, had always had a soft spot in her heart.

Therefore, having listened to the words of the Second Madam, her smile gradually turned cold and chilly. "You just made a fatal mistake. A mistake that is beyond repair."

Taken aback, Second Madam looked at Gu Ruoyun, dumbfounded.

She had never seen her in such a state before...

Under the caress of the light breeze, the young lady raised her delicate and pretty face gradually. Her body seemed as if it was covered with a layer of chilly air, invoking the hearts of those nearby to tremble ever so slightly. It was for unknown reasons that the young lady in front actually possessed a sense of presence that would make people look up to her with respect.

As though she was the ruler of the universe! With her supremacy exuding out overwhelmingly!

"Is this...the useless Lady Gu that we know of? Seems like the rumor is true after all! Gu Ruoyun is the most concealed person in the Imperial City..." Second Madam thought to herself.

"Go back and tell that Admiral of the Gu family that I, Gu Ruoyun, will never ever return to care for the Gu family! There is no need for you to waste your energy here anymore!"

As she was saying this, she threw a glance towards the Second Madam. From this glance, Second Master Gu instantaneously understood that it was the words of Second Madam that had provoked her, prompting her to refuse to return to the Gu family. At that exact moment, he burst with rage and glared at Second Madam ferociously.

"Yun'er, you..."

Just when Second Master Gu was about to say something, a thunderous shout could be heard from some distance away, "Who the hell allowed all of you to disturb my people in the Hundred Herb Hall? Where is Manager Zhao? You better come out now!"

Elder Yu was just on his way to inspect the Hundred Herb Hall when he unexpectedly came across the scene of Gu Ruoyun being blocked by the Gu family. Instantly, his anger began to boil with rage.

Having heard him, one of the workers who stood near him answered while cowering, "Reporting to Elder Yu, Manager Zhao has gone out to see a patient."

"Gone out to see a patient? Hurmph! How could he go out now at this time to see a patient?! Now that Gu Ruoyun is already a member of the Hundred Herb Hall, I will not allow anybody to come and disturb her peace! Somebody go strip the clothes off these sons of a bitch and throw them out now! Next time, just throw them out if they ever come again! Let them come as many times as they like if they are not afraid of making a fool out of themselves!"

Gu Ruoyun did not really want to cause a scene right now. After all, she wanted to fend off the Gu family. This was precisely why she still would not let Elder Yu reveal the fact that she was already the master of the Hundred Herb Hall. Otherwise, with the amount of greed that the Gu family possessed, it would not be a stretch to think that she would have a hard time shaking them off.

"Yes, master."

The group of guards who were following closely behind Elder Yu rushed forward instantly. Without even giving the Gu family the slightest chance to resist, the group of guards ripped their clothes off completely and then threw them out to the crowds. It was still acceptable if the Second Master Gu was the only one who received this treatment. However, the Second Madam was treated the same way as well and she felt so ashamed that she wanted to die on the spot. Her hatred and resentment for Gu Ruoyun multiplied instantly.

"You little bitch! Just you wait! I will make you pay for this when I come back again next time! No, wait, it's not just that! I'm going to make you go through all sorts of torture and suffering as well!"

Perhaps it was because she could feel the hatred that was deeply enrooted in the glare of the Second Madam, it made Gu Ruoyun looked directly into her eyes. Her pair of bright, clear eyes showed no fear nor any signs of flinching. All there was to it was only a faint little smile that was playing on the corner of her lips.

Presently, everybody that was around was whispering and chattering about the naked Gu family. Even the thick-faced Second Master Gu could not bear to lift his head up high. This time, the Gu family had really made a fool out of themselves.

Without as much as a glance towards them, Gu Ruoyun turned away and walked into the Hundred Herb Hall. Elder Yu who was following very closely behind, conducted himself with restraint.

"Tell me, what actually happened?"

Striding forward, Gu Ruoyun took a seat and smiled at Elder Yu.

It was obvious that all of these had something to do with Dongfang Shaoze.

"This..." Elder Yu said awkwardly, "Well actually, the young master just wanted to avenge you. The Gu family always go too far in bullying other people which was why young master decided to give them an impossible task in order to torment them. We never thought that they would run into you at the entrance, Lady Gu. This is all Manager Zhao's fault! Young master had specifically instructed him to not let the Gu family meet you at all but he just happened to be out at this moment. When he comes back later, I will see that he gets his punishment."

"There is no need for punishment." Lifting up a cup of tea that was by the side of the chair, Gu Ruoyun took a small sip before putting it down again and said, "It's just that from now on, please do inform me if you are going to do anything. At the very least, I could be prepared for it."

Elder Yu gave out a burst of laughter before becoming serious once more. "That's right, Lady Gu. I have found the people that you have asked for. All of these people are orphans. Be that as it may, they all have some potential. Even though they might not become some peerless geniuses after undergoing training and cultivation, but they would definitely turn out to be quite decent."

"Oh?" Raising a brow, Gu Ruoyun asked, "Where are they right now? Bring me to them."

"Yes, Lady Gu. Follow me please."

As he finished that sentence, he stood up to lead the way with Gu Ruoyun trailing closely behind him. Together, they walked out of the Hundred Herb Hall.
