Chapter 1099: She's Gu Ruoyun? (2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Nianye is a member of the Medicine Manor?

That's impossible!

Emissary Bai Yin had mentioned that this woman has no support or background. How could she possibly be a member of the Medicine Manor?

"Lord Gu Ruoyun, do you know this fellow?"

The Beast King turned towards Gu Ruoyun and rubbed his head good-naturedly as he asked in astonishment.

He may be a single-celled organism but he has been alive for so many years so he still has some semblance of intelligence. After overhearing the discussion around him, he was suddenly enlightened and feigned astonishment as he asked that question.

Gu Ruoyun sighed exasperatedly.

The reason why she had previously used the name Gu Nianye was to lessen the chances of attracting trouble. However, she never expected to bump into Lan Shao on the street. Since she would still run into trouble after she had changed her name, she might as well just go with the flow.

She does not want unnecessary trouble but that does not mean that she was afraid of these people!

"Gu... Ruoyun..."

Lan Shao's face was now so pale that it reached a point of unprecedented brutality. He pushed himself up on one arm and rose to his feet, freeing the man he had been lying on. However, just as he had stood up, his legs stumbled and he nearly fell back down again.

"How can you possibly be Gu Ruoyun? How can you possibly be the earth-shatteringly reputable pill master?"

At that moment, Lan Shao finally understood why the members of Medicine Manor had tortured him so much.

It was because Gu Nianye was actually Gu Ruoyun!

Lan Shao also did not know that the Vermillion Bird and the others had done all that for another reason — Lan Ge.

Lan Ge was Gu Ruoyun's subordinate so they wanted to vent his anger in his stead! If it were not for this person, Lan Ge would never have to live such a difficult life.

Gu Ruoyun slowly closed her eyes. After a while, she opened them again. The corners of her lips then curled into a sneer.

"Lan Shao, did you ever regret the things you've done to Lan Ge?"

When she had heard the truth behind Lan Ge's parent's deaths, Gu Ruoyun immediately remembered her current life!

That year, Second Master Gu had also slaughtered his own brother for the sake of his own selfish needs. This had caused her family to be torn apart, unable to be reunited for over twenty years! Hence, she could empathize with Lan Ge's experience.

"Lan Ge?" Lan Shao was shocked as he stared at Gu Ruoyun's features in astonishment. He felt as if a large rock was now pressing onto his heart. "You're acquainted with Lan Ge?"

Gu Ruoyun smiled but did not say very much. She only left him with, "Lan Shao, ever since you begun to treat Lan Ge in that manner, your actions have determined your consequences in the future!"

After she had said these words, Gu Ruoyun slowly turned around and headed towards the stall owner who had been bullied by the Beast King.

"This is the price for the item he had purchased." Gu Ruoyun threw two gold pieces in front of the stall owner before she turned towards the Beast Kin indifferently. "Give him back his money!"

"Oh."

The Beast King felt very reluctant but he did not dare go against Gu Ruoyun's orders. He took the money out and placed it pitifully in front of the stall owner.

The stall owner stared gratefully as Gu Ruoyun headed towards the Medicine Manor.

"I never thought that the Master of the Medicine Manor would turn out to be such a delicate and pristine lady. This is too perfect. However, the Master of the Lan family had slandered her by saying that she had seduced men! I really never thought that the Lan family members could be so narrow-minded as to even say such things."

"Tsk, tsk. Have you forgotten those things that Lan Shao had confessed in public? After all, he had caused the deaths of his younger brother and sister-in-law. Even Lan Ge, who had been very young at the time, had not been spared. Lan Shao had falsely accused him of being an unlucky omen who had brought bad luck to his parents! Based on this, are there really any limits to what he would do?"
