“You’d better think this through, little girl. Not everyone can receive the privilege to enter our Weapon Refining Sect! Especially not a good-for-nothing!” Hun Fei suppressed the raging fire in his heart and replied with a cold voice.
He was clearly furious at Gu Ruoyun for not knowing any better.
“I’ve told you that I’m not interested!” Gu Ruoyun glanced at Hun Fei’s gloomy old face, “Besides, I trust my big brother’s choice. He rejected an invitation from the Weapon Refining Sect long ago, which means that there is definitely something about the Weapon Refining Sect that he could not stand. And that is why my choice reflects those of my brother’s.”
That year, the Weapon Refining Sect sent a kind invitation and Gu Shengxiao rejected him in front of countless people. This would forever be a thorn in the deep recesses of his heart! Now, Gu Ruoyun had inadvertently reopened the wound. How could he not feel enraged?
A large amount of energy exploded from his body with a loud bang, collapsing nearby trees.
He fiercely gritted his teeth and fiercely replied, “Gu Ruoyun, are you truly going to reject the invitation to join our Weapon Refining Sect? You think that a good-for-nothing like you has the right to reject us? If it were not for the sake of…”
“If it were not for the sake of our Lady, I would not even bother to speak to this good-for-nothing!” He fumed inwardly.
“No matter how many times you ask, I, Gu Ruoyun, will never join your Weapon Refining Sect.”
The young girl’s tone was forceful that when it reached the ears of the crowd, it silenced their gossipings and speculations.
“Hmph!” Hun Fei scoffed, he turned to General Gu and said, “General Gu, is this your granddaughter? She truly has nothing to show for her upbringing!”
General Gu frowned. Honestly, he was initially shocked. But upon hearing Gu Ruoyun’s response, his shock turned into anger.
“This girl certainly doesn’t know what’s good for her.” He fumed, “Does she not know how much benefits a general will receive an established relationship with the Weapon Refining Sect? But she’s done it now. Rejecting the offer right off the bat, without giving any thought to our family.”
However, General Gu seemed to have forgotten that he was never kind to Gu Ruoyun. Why would she sacrifice herself for his sake?
“Lord Hun Fei, women have always had to obey their fathers and upon marriage, their husbands. She does not have a father, so she should obey me, her grandfather. Hence, I will make the decision. From now on, Gu Ruoyun belongs to the Weapon Refining Sect. Her livelihood has nothing to do with our Gu family.”
Once he finished his declaration, General Gu glanced expressionlessly towards Gu Ruoyun.
At that moment, the young girl’s clear eyes showed no emotion. She stared at him so calmly that he could feel his heart quaked.
While the genius Gu Shengxiao was Gu Ruoyun’s elder brother, he was still an individual and therefore, would be no match for a large sect like the Weapon Refining Sect. Hence, sacrificing Gu Ruoyun to form an alliance with the Weapon Refining Sect was absolutely worth it!
General Gu felt calmer at the thought of this.
“Are you certain?”
Gu Ruoyun spoke calmly, no one could make out a single hint of emotion in her voice at all.
Luo Yin squeezed Gu Ruoyun’s hand. She did not know why but the Gu Ruoyun before her felt like a stranger as if she had turned into a completely different person.
“Gu Ruoyun, I am your grandfather. I have the power to dictate your entire life!”
“Grandfather? Haha!” Gu Ruoyun could not help but burst into laughter, her eyes filled with mockery, “Forget about the fact that you are only my elder in name, not even the heavens have the right to dictate the course of my life! I will live my life on my own terms! I remained in the Gu family because you have all treated my brother well. The Gu family is his home. For his sake, I see nothing wrong in swallowing my anger. However, I believe that once he finds out about everything that you’ve done to me, he will definitely support my decision in leaving the Gu family!”
