"Have you all heard, the actual owner of the Hundred Herb Hall is that good-for-nothing Gu Ruoyun who had been chased out by the Gu family!"

"Tsk, tsk. No one would have thought that girl who had been bullied by everyone would blossom and grow to this stage. I wonder how much the Gu family is regretting it now! Haha, in only just three years, she has managed to go from Qi Collection Level 2 to become a Martial General, even Gu Tian was not so talented."

"That’s nothing compared to what I had personally had witnessed in front of the Ling household. Have you ever seen the White Tiger with her speed and power? And the Azure Dragon who had taken up half the sky! With these two great spiritual beasts in her pocket, even if Gu Tian was a genius, he could never match his daughter’s capabilities..."

Ever since that incident, Gu Ruoyun’s name has spread across the entire Azure Dragon Country. Of course, she was different from where she had been three years ago. As of today, she was an exemplary person whose example every parent would ask their daughter to aspire to be...

If one would say that one did not know the Emperor’s name in the Azure Dragon Country, that would be understandable. However, if one has never heard of Gu Ruoyun, one will be looked down upon! If one does not know who she was, how dare one call oneself a citizen of Azure Dragon Country?

Other than she, who had dared to call out the Dark Yin Palace? Other than she, who had dared to slaughter her way into the Imperial Palace? Even if one had power, they would not have the audacity that she had.

In addition to that, most people said that the reason behind Gu Ruoyun’s wrath was because Imperial Concubine Ling had sent assassins after her who had ended up hurting her servant girl. However, she ended up avenging that servant girl and completely ignored the consequences! It was all for a quick vengeance and grace!

This moment, in the Gu house, a group of servants was gossiping about that day’s incident. The beautiful face of a lady nearby suddenly twitched as she tightly clutched onto her sleeves. Her teeth were clenched so tightly to the point of almost breaking them.

"Shut your mouth, you wretched scum!"

Her eyes were filled with rage as she spoke: "If I ever hear the words Gu Ruoyun again, I will kill the one who had uttered it! Even with her achievements now, she will never be rid of the reality that she had been chased out by the Gu family!"

The group of gossiping servants was silenced and timidly stood aside. They did not dare to utter a single word...

Gu Panpan was filled with rage today and needed someone to vent at. Hence, these few servants ended up becoming the target of her vicious mouth.

"And don’t you all forget, you all had a part in bullying Gu Ruoyun back then! If she wants to avenge herself, you would all be done for. I will not allow you to speak words of praise for her. If you want to talk about her, you have to refer to her as a good-for-nothing like you did before!"

Unacceptable!

She was really dissatisfied how such a good-for-nothing from three years ago had managed to cause her so much despair!

The Gods were really unfair; Gu Ruoyun was rebellious and had even dared to harm her own grandfather. She should have died for her crimes and be struck by lightning!

One should know that after Gu Ruoyun had slaughtered her way into the palace, General Gu, who had brought tens of thousands of soldiers to aid the Emperor had been captured by Elder Yu and has yet to return to the Gu household. After losing the very backbone of the Gu family, how could she be worried?

As a breeze blew past the ancient tree in the yard. Its dense leaves covered a dark silhouette in black robes. The sunlight shone on a black mask, reflecting a cold glint.

The man stood with his hands behind his back and his thin lips were slanted. As he stared with cold eyes at the girl who was throwing a tantrum, a killer intent flashed through his eyes...

He had not expected that so much would have happened within these few days when he had left to settle some pressing matters.
