Gu Ruoyun was shaken as she turned towards the Secret Order disciple who had issued the report and furrowed her brow.
“Someone wants to see me? Who is it?”
“That person claims to be an old friend from the West Spirit Mainland but he had not mentioned his name.”
The West Spirit Mainland? An old friend?
A sense of hesitation flashed in Gu Ruoyun’s eyes as she asked, “Can you describe his facial features?”
The Secret Order disciple joined his fists as he replied, “The man was dressed in black robes and wore a silver mask so I wasn’t able to see his face.”
A man in black robes? Silver mask?
A handsome face instantly appeared in Gu Ruoyun’s mind, causing an explosion in her brain.
It’s him!
That’s right, it must be him!
A sense of joy appeared within Gu Ruoyun’s heart when she thought of this possibility. She did not even have the time to give Yun Yan any instructions as she hurriedly rushed out towards the mountain gates.
Yun Yan looked at Gu Ruoyun who had disappeared in the blink of an eye and muttered dazedly to himself, “The Leader has been in this Secret Order for a while now but this was the first time I’ve ever seen her look this excited. I wonder who this man is to have the ability to create such a great change in her usually calm demeanor.”
…
Outside the mountain gates.
Gu Ruoyun could see the black-robed man who was standing beneath the clouds and mist. She paused in her footsteps as she stared fixedly at the man’s silver mask.
“I knew it, you were the same man who had appeared to save me in the ruins back then!”
She had risked her life in the ruins when she had just arrived in the First City. Fortunately, this man had appeared and saved her!
Though she had always sensed a familiar warmth from this man, she never thought that the man who had risked his life to save her would turn out to be him!
Gu Shengxiao’s lips twitched. However, when he laid his eyes upon his little sister’s elegant face, he suddenly realized that he had lost his voice. He could not say a word and could only stare at her foolishly.
Gu Ruoyun smiled as she took large strides towards Gu Shengxiao.
“I don’t know why you had refused to acknowledge me that day but I know everything now! As long as you’re back, it is good enough. I don’t care whether you’re a man or a puppet, you will always be my elder brother. No one can take you away from me and no one can hurt you!”
She would never allow the Wen family members to take Gu Shengxiao away again! Forget about even refining him completely into a puppet!
“Little Sister…”
Gu Shengxiao’s throat was a little dry but he managed to cry out to her in the end.
“Big Brother.” Gu Ruoyun’s smile was gentle. “I found mother and father and we were reunited. You were the only one missing in our family! Now that you’re back, our family is complete.”
Our family is complete?
How wonderful it was to hear those words! However, each time Gu Shengxiao remembered how Qianbei Ye had entered the Dark Earth Realm for his sake, a bitter taste would lurk within his heart. He really wanted to tell Gu Ruoyun all about it but he did not know how. He was afraid that his little sister would not be able to accept such a terrible blow.
“By the way.” Gu Ruoyun seemed to remember something and asked, “Xiao Ye had mentioned that he was going to look for you. Did he not find you?”
Otherwise, why would Gu Shengxiao be the only one here? I don’t see any sign of that peerless, silver-haired and crimson-robed man?
