119 An Auction That Shocked Four Countries 4

Led by a servant, General Gu walked in arrogantly as he appeared before Gu Ruoyun. He was stunned when he saw Elder Yu beside her. The arrogant expression on his face instantly turned into a flattering smile.

"Elder Yu, I didn’t know you would be here too."

It was obvious that General Gu revered Elder Yu, who was a Martial King.

Elder Yu grunted and did not look at him. It was as if the person in front of him was a pile of trash and looking at him would contaminate his eyes.

"Tell us, why have you come here to look for the little girl?" Elder Yu’s tone was indifferent and domineering.

"Well…"

General Gu looked hesitantly at Elder Yu, "Elder Yu, I would like to talk to her in private."

"Why? Is it something that I can’t know?" Elder Yu looked at General Gu and his gaze was cold, "It seems like you think this old man could be turned away even in his own territory. You are the first person who had dared to chase me out of my own place. General Gu, I wonder who gave you such audacity!"

In that instant, General Gu’s expression changed and he was left completely speechless. After all, with Elder Yu here, there were many things that he would not be able to say to Gu Ruoyun.

Yet he still did not understand, what was Gu Ruoyun’s relationship with Elder Yu? Why was he protecting her?

"Yun’er," As he thought of that, General Gu turned towards Gu Ruoyun and said lovingly, "You’ve left the family for so many days now, grandfather really misses you. You have not been to your late parents’ residence for a long time now. I’ve asked the servants to clean it, even if you plan to stay there, it wouldn’t be a problem. In fact, your parents probably wouldn’t want you to be so far from us."

Suddenly, General Gu could feel a cold and sharp, sword-like gaze stabbing through his body, causing him to shudder. Slightly shocked, he looked up to find the Gu Ruoyun’s cool eyes on him.

This...was this still that good-for-nothing granddaughter of his? This gaze was even more terrifying than anything he had encountered before in countless battlefields...

When had she changed so much?

It should be since that incident when he had almost beaten her to death…

Gu Ruoyun’s every action these days entered his mind and it made him realize that the girl before him was no longer the little girl that could be easily pushed around…

Sadly, he had realized that too late and it was too late for any regrets…

"Just be straightforward, aren’t you here to get the Beauty Rejuvenation Pill?" Gu Ruoyun sneered, "Sure! I can let Hundred Herb Hall give you one, but… you must first find the dead bodies of Gu Tian and his wife for me! Or else, I will definitely not give you anything!"

Initially, General Gu was overjoyed since the Plum Sect had only asked him to get information on the Beauty Rejuvenation Pill. Who would have known that he could easily obtain the actual pill now? As it stands, the Plum Sect would be very grateful towards him.

Only when he heard what came after did General Gu become completely dumbfounded…

The bodies of Gu Tian and his wife? How could it be possible? They have been dead for so many years, how could he still find their bodies?

"This...Yun’er, aren’t you making it hard for me?" Elder Yu said with a troubled expression, "Their bodies have probably been eaten by spiritual beasts. It’s very likely that they don’t exist anymore so how can I find their bodies for you? Can you change your request? Even if you want me to give you the Gu family, I would not say no."
