She was probably trying to trick him, he thought. That's right, it has to be that.

Second Master Gu tried to convince himself of Gu Ruoyun's trickery as he tried to calm himself down. He asked with a pale face, "What proof do you have? What right do you have to say that I had killed my own brother? I had so much brotherly love for him, I could never do such a thing!"

"Was that so?"

Gu Ruoyun's smile grew even more pronounced but her calm eyes remained the same.

"Actually, I had known long ago that my parents' deaths were related to you but I did not know why. Today, I finally found out that it had been because of my elder brother Gu Shengxiao. Someone wanted him so you killed my parents! Gu Qing, am I right?"

Gu Qing was Second Master Gu's real name. When he heard what Gu Ruoyun's had just said, his face changed and his eyes were filled with shock. However, he quickly regained his composure and he retorted while clenching his teeth, "I don't know what you're talking about! Gu Ruoyun, you've used so many underhanded methods just to cause trouble for the Gu family. How dare you even say such things?! You're downright shameless!"

As long as he refuses to admit it, even if this she knew all of it, it was useless.

She does not have any proof!

"Gu Qing, did you think that I had waited until this day to expose everything, just because I did not have proof?" Gu Ruoyun raised her eyes and her calm gaze fixed upon Gu Qing's pale face, "You are wrong, I've waited till this day to find out who had really been involved in this, who was guilty, who was innocent and who deserve to be punished. I want to know what sort of deep hatred you had for my father! Proof? Why do I, Gu Ruoyun, need proof to act? Those who need to be killed will be killed! That's right, I do not have the proof to convince other people but so what? All I need to know is that I will have no regrets!"

Even though the girl's voice was calm, it was vicious and impacted everyone's hearts.

Compared to the wretched Gu Qing, it was obvious that Gu Ruoyun's words were more believable.

So what if there was no proof? If she did things without making her heart feel guilty, there was no need for proof!

"I didn't know that the Gu family's Gu Qing was so evil, he had even dared to kill his own elder brother! Tsk, tsk. It's shameful that such a person would even dare to teach others about respecting their elders, especially since Gu Tian was elder! An elder brother is like a second father, was his way not any different from patricide?"

"Gu Tian was such a genius, sadly he had passed on so young and became a regret in everyone's hearts. If Gu Tian was still alive, the Gu family would not have ended up in such a state. Also, if Gu Tian was still here, even if Gu Ruoyun was a good-for-nothing, no one would have dared to treat her badly!"

"Hmph, the Gu family had Gu Tian killed. How dare they ask someone to forgive them? I think Gu Ruoyun is right, if one still had their conscience, they would avenge their own parents! How did Gu Qing still have the right to come find her?"

The spectators outside the courtyard start discussing all at once. They looked at Gu Qing's eyes that had no hint of shame. Some even spat at him while cursing.

It was well known that Gu Tian was a hero in many people's hearts! But, this hero had trusted his family too much and had ended up being killed by this wretched scum. How could they not feel angry?

"All of you, don't trust her words, Please don't trust her. All of her claims are not true, they are false!!!!"

Gu Qing went berserk and his hair came undone and fell into a mess on his face. In the chaos, there was viciousness in his eyes, "Gu Ruoyun, you are only a little b*tch and will die horribly, hahaha! One day, the Gods will deal with you!"

"Gu Qing, don't you want me to release Master Gu?" Gu Ruoyun laughed and her smile was full of deceit, "I can do as you've begged and release him. However, I hope you won't regret it... Wei Yiyi, tell Elder Yu to release the old man!"

Upon hearing Gu Ruoyun's command, Wei Yiyi did not hesitate. She knew that after the old man had returned home, there would be drama...

As for them, they just needed to sit and watch that drama unfold.

...

The Gu family home was in chaos.

The sorry-looking old man has yet to wash up but was interrupted by voices of rage from outside.

"Hey, the cowardly Gu family! Are you all trying to be tortoises and hiding in your shells? Call Gu Qing out, he was the criminal responsible for murdering Gu Tian! Gu Tian has helped me before, I'm here to demand justice!"

"A hero like Gu Tian dying is a loss to the people of Azure Dragon Country and even the whole mainland! The one who had caused this kind of loss was Gu Qing, that mongrel! He's a criminal of Azure Dragon Country! If Gu Tian was here, who else would have dared to invade Azure Dragon Country? Would there even be war?"

Ever since Gu Qing had retrieved Master Gu from Gu Ruoyun, all that had happened at the courtyard spread like wildfire. Some of those who had been on good terms with Gu Tian immediately came over under the instructions of the Hundred Herb Hall.

It was obvious that these people still believed in Gu Ruoyun.

With her power, she could deal with the Gu family anytime. Plus, based on her previous behavior, she was not a reasonable person! If she wanted someone dead, no matter who you were, she would kill you immediately. Thus, with her behavior, it would not be wronging the Gu family.

Plus, the puny Gu family was not worth her effort.

Master Gu was stunned, he had left the Hundred Herb Hall and hurried straight back, not aware of the discussion in the capital. However, after hearing the rumors circulating outside, he angrily slapped Gu Qing and shouted in rage, "Gu Qing, were you the one responsible for the death of Tian'er?"

Of course, Master Gu was not someone who placed great importance on relationships, otherwise, he would not have used a stranger's skeleton and pretended that it had belonged to Gu Tian.

It was only because, if Gu Tian had not died, he would still be the Master Gu who was praised by the masses. How could the Gu family even end up in such a state?

"Father, I was wronged." Gu Qing's face was pale and he spoke wretchedly, "Elder brother's death has nothing to do with me. It was Gu Ruoyun, she's making things up. Father, it is not like you do not know what sort of person that she is and what she is capable of."

The other people believed in Gu Ruoyun firstly because she had a personality of repaying any debts of kindness or vengeance. Secondly, it was because she was Gu Tian's daughter. However, Master Gu knew how deceitful and cunning she can be. She had tricked the Gu family once so it was not far out of reasoning that she may be trying to frame Qing'er.

"Father, Second Master, please go rescue Panpan, Panpan has been captured!"

At this moment, a fat, middle-aged woman cried and ran up to them, clutching Gu Qing by his sleeve. She screamed, "It's all because of you, you b*stard! If not for you, the news about us being involved in Gu Tian's death would not have spread! Those who had good relations with Gu TIan have captured Panpan. If something were to happen to our daughter, I will never forgive you!"

Gu Qing, who had been relieved for a moment, was stunned when he heard Second Madam Gu's words. His face changed and his teeth chattered, he really wanted to slap her to death.
