Gu Ruoyun looked at Long Yuan and calmly replied, "If I don"t save him, he will most certainly die. If I do save him, he has another chance at life! You should be very clear on the choice you need to make."Long Yuan fell silent.
Gu Ruoyun was right, the Clan Leader"s condition has worsened and it was likely that he would not be able to live through the night! Since that was the case, why not make a last resort and temporarily trust a human for once?
Besides, there were countless powerful Dragon Clan cultivators her so this woman should not be able to do anything else.
"Alright!"
Long Yuan gently nodded at the thought of this and turned his gaze towards Gu Ruoyun.
"I will put my trust in you humans just once more! However, I won"t spare you if I do find out that you"re scheming against the Dragon Clan!"
Gu Ruoyun merely smiled serenely upon hearing this.
Honestly speaking, if she really plans to leave the Dragon Clan, there was no one here who would be able to stop her. However, she still has an objective for staying in the Dragon Clan...
Qianbei Ye had not said a word the entire time. His red eyes only saw Gu Ruoyun alone and he did not seem to place any importance upon the Dragon Clan. There was an unreadable expression on his peerlessly beautiful features.
"Thank you, Lady Gu."
Lan Ge swallowed heavily as he approached Gu Ruoyun with eyes full of grat.i.tude.
Even though Gu Ruoyun was not doing this for him, he still wanted to thank her.
"Now, take me to the Clan Leader."
Gu Ruoyun gently pursed her lips and looked at the Dragon Clan members, "I can only figure out the situation once I"ve seen him!"
"Alright..."
Long Yuan rose to his feet. Regardless of how much he dislikes humans, he could not do anything to Gu Ruoyun before they obtain irrefutable proof! Since Gu Ruoyun has claimed that she could cure the Clan Leader, why should he not give her that chance?
"No, Elder Long Yuan, this human has other objectives. How could he let her see the Clan Leader?"
The person who had spoken up was the white-haired elder from a while ago. He glared fearsomely at Gu Ruoyun as he continued, "Little girl, if you explain honestly, we might even be lenient with your punishment. If you insist on hurting the Dragon Clan, don"t blame us for our lack of courtesy."
Rustle!
The rest of the elders rose to their feet as well and stared cautiously at Gu Ruoyun.
"Elder Long Yuan, I think Long Xin is right. We can"t let these humans see the Clan Leader. The Clan Leader"s condition has already worsened, perhaps he might even die immediately after seeing her."
"That"s right, she"s only a little human girl. What abilities does she have to claim that she could save the Clan Leader? Not even a three-year-old child would believe this! She"s only trying to find a way to a.s.sa.s.sinate the Clan Leader."
Even though these elders" words had been directed at Gu Ruoyun, Long Yuan felt rather uncomfortable as well.
After all, he had just decided to put his trust in humans one more time! By saying those things, that implies that he does not even measure up to a three-year-old child! Can most people really tolerate this kind of humiliation?
"Enough!" Long Yuan raised his head and looked at the elders before speaking in a cool and calm voice, "I"ve made my decision. I believe that this human can"t possibly a.s.sa.s.sinate the Clan Leader in front of my eyes! If she can successfully cure the Clan Leader, she will be welcomed as the Dragon Clan"s guest and no one is to disrespect her. If she"s unable to cure the Clan Leader, it also proves that she cannot produce any evidence to prove her innocence! By then, I will be the first to show her no mercy!"
Elder Long Yuan was very confident in his own abilities. He believes that Gu Ruoyun has no way of killing the Clan Leader in front of him which was why he was allowing her to carry out her suggestion.
