Chapter 354 "You're certain that this weapon is the exact one that was stolen?"
Gu Ruoyun stared at Shiyun with a half smile playing on her lips . "Lady Gu, you've asked a question despite already knowing the answer . " Shiyun stepped forward and released a wave of coercion . Then, a violent storm began to engulf the Xia Family courtyard . "This spiritual weapon belongs to my Weapon Refining Sect . As the Lady of the Weapon Refining Sect, I shall take it back today!" Hong!
As she spoke, a berserk tornado of dust formed in front of her, it flew towards Gu Ruoyun at top speed . Then, the dust began to fill the heavens, covering the azure skies . . . Gu Ruoyun was unable to clearly make out the situation in front of her . Suddenly winds rose from behind her . She quickly turned around, grabber her longsword and blocked the sudden attack . The sheer force of the attack numbed her hand and caused a deep gash . Blood dripped slowly from her open wound . Despite using a high-class spiritual weapon, she was still one level away from a Martial Emperor and it would not be easy for her to surpass that . "Lady Gu, it's still not too late . " After the dust storm, Shiyun's soft and gentle voice rang aloud, "As long as you surrender and pledge your allegiance to the Weapon Refining Sect, I will exempt you from your punishment for theft and award you with a prestigious position . "
Anyone ignorant of the situation would believe that Shiyun was truly a merciful and good person who repays with kindness . However, only Gu Ruoyun knew that this woman was only concerned with obtaining her spiritual force . If she were to submit to the Weapon Refining Sect, she would certainly become nourishment for Shiyun — sacrificing herself for a supposedly virtuous cause . But was Gu Ruoyun a passive person? No! She will not lose to Shiyun, no matter what .
Hong! The longsword shone brightly and in a moment a small smile appeared on the girl's clear and cold eyes . She raised her sword and charged quickly towards Shiyun and both weapons clashed against one another . The great turbulence destroyed Gu Ruoyun's sleeve and blood began to trickle down her wrist . . . "Aih, Gu Ruoyun of the Hundred Herb Hall was still no match for a Martial Emperor . Her current level in strength was too far off from Shiyun's . " In Heaven City, a family elder shook his head as he sighed . They were all like grasshoppers on the same rope . Naturally, they hoped that Gu Ruoyun would win but talking was easy after all . The opponent was not only a young genius but a Martial Emperor too! "No, did you see that? The attack may have caused injuries but she managed to force Shiyun a few steps back . " The one who had spoken was, impressively, the leader of the powers of Heaven City, Ba Zhentian . He was now fully focused on observing the match and he wrinkled his brow as if he had just thought of something . Hearing his words, everyone else began to realize this as well . Shiyun had indeed been forced into a retreat . She was only a Martial King which was like a mere grain of sand compared to a Martial Emperor, they thought in unison . However, she had managed to force her Martial Emperor opponent into retreat? Just how perverse was this girl? Ba Zhentian relaxed his brow and smiled, " I've had the pleasure of meeting Lady Gu once and I already knew that she wasn't someone who should be taken lightly even four years ago . Do any of you know what level she was at? She was only a good-for-nothing still stuck at level 2 in the Qi Collection ranks . Everyone in Azure Dragon country knew this . But she had managed to grow to such a degree in such a short time, Shiyun was indeed a genius but her success stemmed from ten years of hard work . Yet Gu Ruoyun achieved that in only four years! If she had a bit more time, surpassing Shiyun would not have been a problem, but . . . " Ba Zhentian paused as his gaze slowly turned somber .
