Evil Emperor's Wild Consort - chapter-421

The reason why she had dared to do such a thing was because she had
already made some inquiries.

The Divine Trials will start soon and during this period of time, the
Immortal Realm’s cultivators would be far too busy with their
preparations to have the time to come bother her. That was why she had
dared to do such a thing.

It would take a few months for the Divine Trials to end. By then, her
powers should have grown stronger and she, as well as the Azure Dragon
and the rest, would certainly be a greater match for those Martial
Emperors from the Immortal Realm.

“You idiot girl, you simply won’t be satisfied unless you stir up a fire
in public.” Master Dongfang glared fiercely at her and spoke with a hint
of annoyance, “Your great-uncle has just declared to have you participate
in the Divine Trials. I know that you have no interest in this but you
only need to participate and draw the attention of two out of the Three
Great Authorities and the Immortal Realm would not be able to deal with
you.”

“I’m not interested.”

Gu Ruoyun pouted and rejected him without a moment’s hesitation.

Master Dongfang nearly went insane, this girl was clearly not giving him
any face at all.

“Let me tell you this; this time, even if you don’t want to participate,
you still have to participate. I’ve already put your name in so you’ll
have to play it by ear.”

“And if I were to refuse to participate?”

Gu Ruoyun narrowed her eyes slightly.

Honestly, she has no interest in the war with the demons. The fate of the
entire mainland had absolutely nothing to do with her. She only wished to
open up a place for the people she loves to live in peace.

Master Dongfang was so angered that his face turned ashen, his gaze
darted around for a bit before he said, “Don’t you want to enter the
Spirit Sect? I’ve heard that Shengxiao’s situation was growing perilous.
Many elders have refused to comply with him and were secretly making
false charges against him. Are you not going to help him?”

Now, Master Dongfang was placing a gamble on how much Gu Ruoyun actually
cared for Gu Shengxiao.

Obviously, he made the right gamble!

Suddenly, Gu Ruoyun remembered the man from the Spirit Sect who had
helped the Ling family plot against her three years ago!

Someone from the Spirit Sect had wanted to capture her and use her as a
means to threaten her big brother. That proves the unfavorable situation
of her big brother in the Spirit Sect.

And the only way she could help her big brother was by entering the
Spirit Sect!

A wave of cold aura flashed across Gu Ruoyun’s eyes, “Put my name in for
me, I’ll participate in the Divine Trials.”

Master Dongfang heaved a sigh of relief. The only way to prevent the
Immortal Realm from laying their hands on her was to send her to the
Spirit Sect so he had no choice but to use Gu Shengxiao as a means to
convince her.

Ever since her parents’ died, the girl’s brother, whom she had also
relied on, was the biggest berserk button of her life.

“Oh right, when do the Divine Trials begin?”

“In three days time.”

Three days?

Gu Ruoyun frowned, “Alright, I understand. I’ll set off in three days.”

Master Dongfang still had something more to say but swallowed his words
in the end. He left with a heart filled with all sorts of concern.

Fine wisps of hair danced in the night breeze.

The beautiful moonlight poured down from the heavens, falling on the
young girl’s green robes.

“Xiao Ye, aren’t you supposed to be in your room? Why are you here?”

Gu Ruoyun’s voice was as light as a fresh breeze as it fluttered in the
night air.

The silver-haired man had appeared from behind a tree. His blood-red
robes were like a demon’s and looked even more enchanting under the
moonlight.

“Xiao Yun,” The man slowly walked towards Gu Ruoyun and placed both hands
firmly on her shoulders. His peerless features were resolute and serious,
“I don’t know why but I’m feeling very uncomfortable. Can you not go to
the Divine Trials?”

Gu Ruoyun stared blankly for a moment then smiled lightly, “Xiao Ye, he’s
my older brother who had always shielded me. For my sake, he did not
hesitate to oppose the people from the Immortal Realm. In times of
calamity, all he could think of was my safety. He even concealed his
identity to protect me. How could I leave him alone and not care about
him? Besides, I have a feeling that if I participate in the Divine
Trials, I might be able to find Yu’er.”
