27 The Sinister Ling Family Is Met With Danger 2

As he stared at Gu Ruoyun's faint smile, Ling Xi gulped. He finally regained his composure and exclaimed, "Gu Ruoyun, I have never expected you to conceal your powers so well. I simply cannot understand, why didn't you raise your hand against me when you had the chance? However, aren't you thinking too highly of yourself? There are so many of us and only one of you. If we come at you together, do you really think that you would be a match for us? I'll give you one last chance. Hand over the treasure and I might grant you an easy death!"

"That's right, this woman is alone. And there are so many of them. How could they be afraid of her? Could it be that she doesn't understand the concept of being hopelessly outnumbered?" Ling Xi thought to himself.

"Treasure? You mean this?" Gu Ruoyun swept her gaze towards the crowd. Then, with a swoosh, a sword appeared in her hand and she pointed its rusty blade towards Ling Xi.

Ling Xi was momentarily stunned, when he snapped out of it, he growled in anger, "Gu Ruoyun, are you insulting our intelligence? You dare claim that this broken blade is the treasure? Do you think I am a three-year-old child?"

"Exactly, it's only a broken blade. No one would want it even if you gave it to them."

"Gu Ruoyun, you'd better hand over the treasure. We'll leave your corpse whole for the sake of your brother, Gu Shengxiao!"

"Oh?" Faced with a flurry of shouts, Gu Ruoyun calmly withdrew her sword, "So you think you have high intelligence? Based on what I can tell, that's not really the case. I've already offered to give the treasure to you but you've refused it yourself. It's not like I don't want to give it to you."

At this moment, hidden among the trees, Leng Yanfeng focused his gaze upon the calm and composed Gu Ruoyun. He mumbled to himself with a puzzled look on his handsome face, "Gu Ruoyun, it seems that you are not purposely acting in front of me. It is because the world has been looking down on you…"

She had actually managed to discover the Weapon Refining Sect's spiritual weapon!

That also proved that her mental energy was far stronger than the average person.

Leng Yanfeng fell momentarily silent, he finally glanced at Gu Ruoyun before disappearing into the woods.

"Gu Ruoyun, if you're not going to come to your senses, then we have no choice but to kill you!"

A cold light flashed across Ling Xi's eyes and he sneered, "If killing you means that we can obtain the treasure, then your life might have had some sort of meaning to it!"

Shua!

Just as he spoke, he charged straight towards Gu Ruoyun.

Everyone else quickly exchanged looks, then charged towards the thin figure in the middle from all directions.

"Once we have killed her," they thought, "The treasure will be ours!"

The look in their eyes changed greatly at the thought of this. Desire, lust and a determination to win.

However…

Under the light breeze, the young girl raised her delicate and pretty face before she spoke. Her airy voice was heard by every pair of ears there. It was as if an entire century had passed…

"Is this the extent of your speed? Too slow. I'm sorry, I have no interest in fighting with children like you."

As she spoke, a heavy load of fists slammed into their bodies. Unable to control themselves, they stumbled backward.

"Impossible!"

Ling Xi widened his eyes. Even though Gu Ruoyun's body was inches away, he could only watch with a widened gaze…

"This woman, how did she become so strong?" He wondered, "All these years, what deep secrets had she been concealing?"

Peng!

Regardless of how much he resisted, Ling Xi's body slammed heavily to the ground. Just as he fell, he seemed to have remembered something and let out a furious roar.
