131 The Auction With The Whopping Price 3

Gu Ruoyun shrugged, "You're rich and gullible. Who should I con if not you?"

When he heard this, Zuo Shangchen's lips twitched involuntarily. Although the 500 million gold coins didn't mean much to him, who would say something like this so blatantly?

"Fourth Prince, Luo Yin, I still have some business to do so I'll take my leave."

After she said that, Gu Ruoyun stood up, yawned lazily and walked towards the door of the box. She had not opened the door yet when she was halted by the next sentence.

"Are you truly the behind the scenes Master of the Hundred Herb Hall?"

Susu's gaze locked onto Gu Ruoyun, "From what I know, the Hundred Herb Hall had existed before you were born."

No matter what, she could not believe it. The young girl in front of her eyes being the behind the scenes Master of the Hundred Herb Hall was truly unbelievable.

Gu Ruoyun smiled but kept her back towards Susu, "Even the rulers of a country can change, don't you think?"

This sentence indirectly confirmed that she was the mysterious Master of the Hundred Herb Hall.

After she said that, she opened the door of the box and went out.

Susu looked in the direction of Gu Ruoyun's exit. The look in her eyes was complicated. She had thought that this woman who Brother Chen had protected was a useless good-for-nothing. After all, that was what she heard when she came here. But if she was the mysterious boss of the Hundred Herb Hall, then that was a different story.

Even if the helm of Hundred Herb Hall were to change, if she did not have the ability, how could she make people obey her?

"Susu, I've told you before, don't mess with her."

Zuo Shangchen smiled bewitchingly. He leaned lazily on the chair, even his tone was lazy.

That girl Susu was not bad by nature. She was only a little wilful because she had been pampered since young. He did not wish for her to cross Gu Ruoyun, hence he said those words to her on purpose.

"Brother Chen, since she's so powerful, why didn't she let everyone know her identity? If those people knew that she was the Master of the Hundred Herb Hall then they won't pick on her anymore."

Susu blinked her big, watery eyes and asked, puzzled.

"She's only concealing her wings while she's still a fledgling. However, she is honest in front of her friends. This is what I like about her." Zuo Shangchen spoke lazily. A faint smile appeared on his peach blossom peerless face which could topple cities and countries.

If the general public knew that the Beauty Rejuvenation Pill had come from her own hands, and that she could still produce more precious pills that made even the Ghost Doctor willingly submit to her, then there would be an uproar on the mainland.

But she clearly did not want that…

Therefore, before she became strong, she would need to conceal her abilities.

…

Inside the main hall, Ba Zhentian looked at the dispersing crowd. His profound face showed disappointment. Just as he was about to turn and leave, a voice halted him in his step.

"Lord Ba, our Master invites you to a meeting."

Ba Zhentian was astonished. He turned to looked at Elder Yu incredulously, "Elder Yu, why did your Master want to see me?"

"Lord Ba will know when he comes with me."

Elder Yu smiled drily. Truth be told, even he did not know Gu Ruoyun's purpose of wanting to meet with Ba Zhentian.

Ba Zhentian regained his senses. He folded his hands respectfully and said, "Then, I will have to trouble you to lead the way."

"This way please."

When he heard this, Elder Yu made a friendly gesture and led Ba Zhentian towards the guest hall.

However, when Ba Zhentian was stunned when he saw the girl waiting in the guest hall. The shock he felt was openly displayed on his domineering face.
