“Who here is called Gu Ruoyun?”
Within the layers of clouds, a deep, hoarse voice rang out, carrying a powerful force that no one could defend against.
Amongst those present, no one knew what had happened, but all of them held fear in their eyes. Even Elder Liu had stiffened in shock. His eyes scanned the layers of dark clouds in the sky warily.
“May I ask what sire is here for?” Elder Liu asked with a darkened gaze.
“I’m here to kill Gu Ruoyun. As for those who have no business here, scram!”
That voice was filled with killing intent, striking like a thunderbolt out of the blue into the hearts of everyone present. Following that, a dragon’s roar resounded, making the entire sky shake.
Since the start, the events in the courtyard had already drawn the gaze of others. Countless onlookers had gathered outside the Ling family home at some point, and they all looked towards the person hiding in the clouds with shock.
No, perhaps it wasn’t even a person…
“Gu Ruoyun is done for this time. She actually provoked someone as strong as that.”
“This expert seems really strong, no one’s going to be able to save her now.”
The crowd wasn’t just listening to the threats of the speaker, but the howl from those clouds had clearly come from a huge dragon. Dragons naturally stood at the top of all living beings and had the power to unleash armageddon on the world. Even if Gu Ruoyun had many experts at her side, they definitely wouldn’t be a match for this huge dragon.
Elder Liu had thought that his life had come to an end. After hearing the Azure Dragon’s words, joy sprang up in his heart. He turned to the clouds in the sky and said: “Sire, that woman standing not too far away from me is Gu Ruoyun. She’s the one you have to kill; please, kill her right now.”
“Thank you.”
The Azure Dragon’s deep voice carried through the clouds. Following that, as everyone was watching the sky, a blue light shot down from the heavens and charged towards Gu Ruoyun…
“Tianqiong, if you dare to hurt her, I’ll never forgive you!”
Yunyao had been immersed in the pleasant surprise of reuniting with an old friend and hadn’t been paying attention to what was happening in the surroundings. However, upon recovering her senses, she saw that the Azure Dragon had shot an attack at Gu Ruoyun and immediately turned anxious. If anything happened to Master, those two men would never let the Azure Dragon live!
That stupid guy!
She had been standing here for so long, but he still hadn’t seen her!
“Yun… Yunyao… is that you?”
After a long while, a voice trembling with endless disbelief rang out from the clouds…
“Damn it! It’s too late!”
Seeing that blue light falling towards Gu Ruoyun, Yunyao was extremely worried. She abruptly roared and turned into a bright light, pouncing towards Gu Ruoyun.
However, that blue light was faster than Yunyao; just when she was about to reach Gu Ruoyun, it was clear that it was too late…
In that moment, despair leaked into her eyes.
The Azure Dragon was too powerful. Under that might, the martial general ranked Gu Ruoyun was completely defenseless, she couldn’t even move… Thus, Elder Liu smiled in relief.
His mission had finally been completed.
However, in the second between life and death, arms wrapped tightly around Gu Ruoyun and pulled her into an embrace.
Dressed in a red robe, the silver-haired man’s perfect face was expressionless. His blood-red lips were tilted at a murderous angle, and his crimson pupils seemed to reflect the many lives he had taken. His whole person exuded a bewitching aura.
