On a busy street in Azure Dragon Country, Gu Ruoyun stopped walking and turned her head to the man who had been following behind her. She paused and said, “I don’t know who you are so you don’t have to follow me. I’m already troubled enough with this current matter and bringing you along will just mean even more trouble.”
No matter what, she had too many enemies. If she were to bring him along, she would only be putting him in danger.
The silver-haired man pulled a face and he looked grievously like an abandoned kitten at Gu Ruoyun, “But I only wish to follow you.”
“There’re a lot of people who want to kill me. If you follow me, aren’t you afraid that you’ll be killed too?”
“I won’t let others kill you!”
At that instant, Gu Ruoyan wasn’t sure whether she was mistaken or not, but she could clearly feel the silver-haired man’s manner become more imposing with his body emanating hostility. When she frowned and looked at the man she was only met with a pair of sad eyes.
Maybe what she had felt just now was only her misconception…
“Since you put it that way, then you’ll just have to follow me. Oh right, what’s your name?”
She didn’t know why she had compromised at that moment, it was as though she had been drawn by something which stopped her from chasing this man away.
This was a weird feeling. After all, no matter in her past or present lives, she has never taken pity on anyone before.
“Qianbei Ye, I somehow can remember that my name is Qianbei Ye but I’m not clear about the rest.”
Qianbei Ye?
Gu Ruoyun froze for a while, “This ancient surname, Qianbei, is really rare. Are you really sure that you don’t know where you came from?”
As he heard that, Qianbei Ye wrinkled his eyebrows in pain when several images flashed through his mind. The images had flashed by too quickly for him to get a hold of them.
Just as he was about to continue to recall his memories, a powerful force suddenly rammed into his mind and caused an explosive sharp pain in his entire head.
“I can only remember the name Qianbei Ye, the rest is just a blur.”
“There’s a seal, I feel like my memories have been sealed away.” Qianbei Ye loosened his brows and said with certainty.
“A seal?” Gu Ruoyun arched her brows slightly, “We’ll have to wait until after Zixie has woken for me to understand the type of seal that’s in your body and the person who had put that seal in you.”
Zixie has been in a deep slumber for a period of time and it was unknown when he will regain consciousness…
“Xiao Yun, where are we going now?” Qianbei Ye’s gaze followed Gu Ruoyun’s voice. Only very few people could resist that innocent expression paired with his exceptional looks.
All of a sudden, the ladies on the street looked at his direction. When they saw the Gu family’s good-for-nothing daughter standing next to him, they immediately thought of a fresh flower which had been stuck into a heap of cow dung.
This man, whose beauty can overthrow cities and ruin states, is being contaminated just by having that useless trash standing next to him.
“To the Hundred Herb Hall!”
Gu Ruoyun lifted her eyes with a relieved smile on the corners of her lips. From now on, her power shall rise slowly.

At the Ling household.
Ling Xi ignored the person who was chasing behind him and hurriedly charged out. He ran breathlessly into the study and panted.
“Grandfather! That good-for-nothing, Gu Ruoyun, is not dead!”
“What?”
Ling Yi’s hand stiffened slightly and he lifted his head to look at his grandchild with a slight frown, “You’re saying that Gu Ruoyun is still alive? How is that possible? I personally saw her fall over the cliff.”
