"Alright."In the end, she agreed to his condition.
"I"ll wait for you right here! Whether you can find Big Brother or not, you must come back to me."
Gu Ruoyun knows that Qianbei Ye was speaking the truth.
The Devil Sect"s power needs to be expanded. Besides, if she were to follow him, she would only be in the way...
"Don"t worry, nothing will happen to me."
Qianbei Ye pulled Gu Ruoyun into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her on the lips. "Once I bring older brother-in-law back, I will make you my wife."
Gu Ruoyun"s body shook. She then wrapped her arms around Qianbei Ye"s neck and deepened the kiss...
It was a sleepless night.
The next day, after Gu Ruoyun had woken up, Qianbei Ye said goodbye to her and left the palace to search for Gu Shengxiao"s whereabouts. Gu Ruoyun"s expression sank as he left. Her eyes were filled with consideration.
"If my powers had been strong enough, I wouldn"t ever drag him down. At this moment, I"m not powerful enough."
Though she had been achieving her breakthroughs rapidly, her enemies were becoming more powerful as well.
No matter how strong she was now, she would still come face-to-face with a greater enemy in the future.
"Perhaps only that peak position can allow me to ensure my loved ones" safety!"
Gu Ruoyun clenched her fists in a tight grip. Her heart made a decision and her eyes filled with determination along with an absolute faith.
"Oh, that"s right, after breaking through to the exceptional state, I can unlock another door in the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da. I wonder what the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da will gift to me this time."
She thought for a moment before entering the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da without any further consideration.
"You"re here?"
Zixie looked at Gu Ruoyun and his handsome face lit up with a demonic smile. "The sixth level of the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da has been unlocked. You can go in now."
"Alright."
Gu Ruoyun gently nodded and walked towards the now unlocked door to the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da"s sixth level.
Everything was empty at the doorway.
As Gu Ruoyun entered the great doorway, a loud crash sounded and a powerful energy entered into her mind"s eye. nearly bursting her brain into pieces.
When she returned to her senses, she realized that she had entered a savage territory...
"What is this place?"
Gu Ruoyun furrowed her brows and a sense of astonishment flashed in her eyes.
Usually, the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da would grant me something to increase my power. Why did it send me to such a strange place this time...
Just as Gu Ruoyun was in the middle of her confusion, a cold and clear voice chimed in from not too far away which made her turn around.
"Qianbei Ye, why have you asked me to come to a place like this?"
Qianbei Ye?
Boom!
The name hammered against her heart and made it s.h.i.+ver...
It was an extremely hot day.
Under the dazzling sky, the man"s silvery hair looked absolutely stunning while his crimson robes were enchanting, magnificent, and matchless.
This man was like a G.o.d and a demon at the same time. These two auras blended with one another on his body. This time, there was no emotion on his face as he glared coldly at the woman in white before him...
Gu Ruoyun did not know why but she felt a strange sense of familiarity when her eyes landed on the woman in white. The feeling surged towards her like an attack separated by more than ten thousand years.
"I remember now." A ray of divine light flashed across Gu Ruoyun"s mind. "The memory I had seen in the sea of flames back then was of a white-robed woman forging the Nine Emperors. If my guess is correct, this woman was the one who had created the Nine Emperors."
