Evil Emperor's Wild Consort - chapter-400

Gu Ruoyun smiled, “You didn’t see them when they were alive and you
didn’t see their corpses when they were reported deceased. So how are you
so sure that they’re both dead?”

“Yun’er, we’ve also thought about this as well. At the time your maternal
grandfather had sent his men to search the surroundings of that cliff.
But the cliff was extremely deep and on that cliff, it would be nearly
impossible to fully utilize a Martial Emperor’s flying abilities. There
were also no caves on the precipice of the cliff. At the bottom of the
cliff were countless ferocious spiritual beasts. So, based on these the
possibility of their survival was zero.”

“Maternal grandmother, I only believe in my own eyes,” Gu Ruoyun raised
her head, staring up at Lan Yuge’s beautiful face, “I have not seen their
bodies so I don’t believe that they are dead. I will find them even if I
have to travel to the ends of the earth! If they are not on this
mainland, I will search for them in another one! I will never rest until
I find them!”

Lan Yuge observed the young girl’s expression which was full of
resolution and murmured to herself, “Alike, you are far too alike. Your
personality is exactly like your father’s. If we didn’t have to keep your
mother in the dark of the dangers faced by the Dongfang Family long ago,
I would have loved to hold a wedding ceremony for your parents.
Unfortunately, this can only remain as my desire…”

Previously, there weren’t many young people whom she had admired, only Gu
Tian!

Honestly, she really liked this son-in-law of hers. Even the old man was
satisfied. Unfortunately, those whom the Gods love die young. If he was
still alive, based on his level of talent, he would have become a Martial
Honor or even higher by now…

“Maternal grandmother, you will have the chance in the future.”

Gu Ruoyun raised her head and spoke with determination.

Before she sees their bodies, she will never believe that they are truly
dead.

“I hope that will be so,” Lan Yuge sighed as she held Gu Ruoyun’s hand
tightly and said, “Yun’er, if you wish to visit me more often during your
stay with the Dongfang Family, you can use this back mountain token
whenever you wish. As long as you hold that in your hands, you can come
and visit me. Other than you, only Ze’er is in possession of this token.”

Many who do not know the truth would think that Master Dongfang was the
number one cultivator in the Dongfang Family. But in fact, the true
number one cultivator was Lan Yuge. If she does not wish for anyone else
to disturb her by visiting the mountain, even Master Dongfang would not
have the authority to do so.

“Oh?” Gu Ruoyun played with the token in her hand and asked with strong
interest, “The old fart, he doesn’t have this?”

“He does not have a token, but he does have a chance,” Lan Yuge raised
her lips into a smile, “He is allowed to see me three times a year.”

Three times?

Gu Ruoyun’s smile grew even more pronounced, she was now clearly in a
great mood.

That old fart was only allowed to visit maternal grandmother three times,
she thought, yet I can come whenever I wish. If he ever found out about
this, he would surely go mad with rage…

…

The back mountains.

After Gu Ruoyun had bid Lan Yuge goodbye, she leisurely walked out of the
mountain, clearly very pleased with herself.

However, as they say, an unlucky person could get cavities even just by
drinking water.

Just as Gu Ruoyun made her descent from the mountain, she bumped into a
familiar figure! That person turned out to be the one who had tried to
search her outside the city gates — Dongfang Yan.

This moment can be considered as a situation of when two enemies come
face to face with their eyes blazing in hatred. Dongfang Yan glared at Gu
Ruoyun as her nostrils flared into a soft scoff, “Damned girl, I’ve
caught you again! You certainly are bold. You can’t even follow simple
rules – this mountain is the Dongfang Family’s forbidden strip of land.
It’s prohibited to enter here! Who gave you the permission to enter the
back mountain? This time, no one can shield you, even if you were the
Young Master’s friend!”
