“No, I won’t.” Shaking her head, she chuckled softly. “I believe in Zixie, but I believe in my feelings and guts more. No matter what kind of person you were in the past, the person that I know of is not of the old you but who you are right now.”
The man burst into a laugh.
The laughter was so breathlessly beautiful and captivating, to the extent that even the universe appeared dull in comparison.
“I believe in you too. In this world, you are the only person I believe in. Even if you had discarded me, I would still believe that you must have your own reasons for doing that. Xiao Yun, if there came a day that you give up on me, I would be waiting for you right here, waiting for you to come back and find me eventually….”
Gu Ruoyun felt a clench in her heart. She felt pity and ache towards this man. No matter how big of a mistake that he had committed in the past, she would never ever give up on him….
Walking out the door, she immediately saw Elder Yu rushing towards her. The moment he saw Gu Ruoyun and Qianbei Ye who was about to come out from the room, he rushed forward delightedly.
“Lady Gu, the group of people just came back.”
Faintly lifting her brows, Gu Ruoyun smiled. “Now that I think about it, it’s about time for Admiral Luo’s weapons to arrive as well. Elder Yu, could you please get those weapons for me? It is time for me to reveal my plan.”
“Yes, Lady Gu.”
…
Just a month ago, there was about a hundred over people in the group that was sent to the Spiritual Beat Mountains by Gu Ruoyun, but right now, only slightly over fifty people had returned. Most of the people had escaped when they could not withstand the dangers that they came across. Some even met with their deaths under the claws of ferocious wild beasts.
Nevertheless, right now, these people had no idea that because of their perseverance and determination, they would become the almighty powerhouses that could make all of the mainlands tremble in fear in the near future!
In the courtyard, Gu Ruoyun swept her glance over every person who had managed to stay behind and finally came to a rest on Xun Feng who was sporting his usual haughty and arrogant look.
“You managed to hold up, I see.”
“That is right.” Lifting up his face, he said in a cold and arrogant manner, “Do you remember that you gave us your words you would show your true potential if we managed to survive? I hope you will not let our efforts in this one month go to waste.”
Gu Ruoyun burst out laughing. “Well, to be honest, I don’t have many abilities. Up till now, I am merely at level six in the Qi Collection ranks. When it comes to combat strength, I am not a match at all for all you elites.”
Xun Feng’s face turned dark immediately. Is this young girl freaking toying with us? If it was true, he would never let her off!
“However!” Gu Ruoyun chuckled, with the glimpse in her eyes shone differently now. “Did all of you really think that this one month was a waste of time and effort? Are you going to tell me that none of you had improved at all during this one month of training? If that was true, I do not even have the need to train you guys anymore.”

Having listened to her words, there were some slight changes on the face of each and every one of them.
Gu Ruoyun was right. In this one month of training, not only had they progressed tremendously, their physiques and build strengthened greatly as well. This was not something that they could achieve easily even if they were to cultivate for six months long…
“As I have said before, perhaps my power is not strong enough right now, but in the near future, I will be so strong that none of you guys would be able to be my match even if all of you were united and combined altogether! Even if it was under my meticulous training methods.”
The power that Gu Ruoyun possessed right now was nothing out of the ordinary. However, her achievements were still pretty outstanding if they were to compare to her peer group. At the very least, she was no longer the loser that she used to be back then. Still, as her cultivation period was still considerably short, there was nothing much to her success yet.
“As long as all of you follow me, I will never let you regret!” Gu Ruoyun lifted her head high up. Under the bright sun, a faint but confident smile could be seen on her delicate features. “I will train and forge all of you to become the greatest and most powerful troop ever! Even if this troop was comprised of only fifty people, it would triumph in every battle and succeed in every invasion! I believe that the main cause of you guys having persisted to the very last moment is for this very same reason as well.”
