The Dragon Clan was located at the North Sea’s deep end. Without a guide from the Dragon Clan, humans would never be able to successfully enter the bottom of the ocean.
Gu Ruoyun saw a city in the depths of the North Sea as soon as she reached the bottom of the ocean!
“We’re here.”
Long Ling’er stopped pulling as she turned to look at the people behind her and said, “Lan Ge, you and your friends can wait in the guest room for now. Long Yan and I will inform the elders. If the Clan Leader is willing to see you after his recovery, I will come for you.”
Lan Ge nodded. Based on the situation now, it was best to take this route.
Long Yan had followed quietly behind the group the entire time but his eyes never lost their vigilance, fearful that Gu Ruoyun and the others would do something against the Dragon Clan.
After following the group into the Dragon Clan, Gu Ruoyun and the others were arranged to stay in a guest room at the Clan Leader’s mansion. Long Ling’er and Long Yan quickly left once their guests were in the room.
Since they have obtained the detoxifying herb, their priority was now to save the Clan Leader.
However, Long Yan did not feel assured to leave Gu Ruoyun and the rest alone. Hence, he had stationed several Dragon Clan guards outside the guest room to watch them.
In the guest room.
The strong fragrance of sandalwood filled their senses.
Gu Ruoyun was seated in front of a table as she poured herself a cup of tea. She gently took a sip and said, “Xiao Ye, what do you think of the Dragon Clan? Can we get the Ancient Dragon’s Bile easily?”
“If they won’t give it to us, we’ll take it by force.”
Qianbei Ye raised his brow.
To him, this was not an issue.
If the Dragon Clan refuses to hand over the Ancient Dragon’s Bile, they would take it by force. He would bring the Ancient Dragon’s Bile to her no matter what.
“It would be good if we can resolve this peacefully.” Gu Ruoyun sighed. “If we really had no other choice, I can let the Dragon King out. After all, he’s only taking his body back. Can the Dragon Clan really stop him from doing that?”
Suddenly, Gu Ruoyun seemed to remember something and gently furrowed her brows.
“Xiao Ye, did you sense that there was something not right with that Tyrannical Sky Tiger?”
The Tyrannical Sky Tiger?
Hearing this, Qianbei Ye fell silent.
After a long pause, Gu Ruoyun spoke again, “That Tyrannical Sky Tiger wasn’t that powerful and was only at the early stage of the Refined State. The Dragon Clan members could have defeated it if they attacked together! Spiritual beasts have always been sensitive to danger so why had it appeared? Moreso, it was even carrying the detoxifying herb when it had appeared! I feel as if it had been purposely sent to bring the detoxifying herb to us.”
Gu Ruoyun also felt the same way as Long Ling’er. That Tyrannical Sky Tiger seemed as if it had been purposely sent to bring the detoxifying herb to them!
“Was there something wrong with that detoxifying herb?” Qianbei Ye went behind Gu Ruoyun and gently rested his chin on her shoulder as he asked.
Gu Ruoyun shook her head, “I had checked the detoxifying herb, it can indeed be used to cure poison. There shouldn’t be any problems with this medicinal herb.”
Qianbei Ye fell silent for a moment before wrapping his arms gently around Gu Ruoyun from behind.
“Yun’er, regardless of that Tyrannical Sky Tiger’s purpose, our goal is to get the Ancient Dragon’s Bile.”
Gu Ruoyun smiled gently. Qianbei Ye was right. Regardless of the Tyrannical Sky Tiger’s motives, their objective was the Ancient Dragon’s Bile alone. So how was it their business if the Tyrannical Sky Tiger had other motives?
She relaxed at the thought of this and slowly turned around to look at the man before her.
“Xiao Ye…”
“Shh.” Qianbei Ye placed his finger on his lips and made a shushing motion. He then lowered his head and gently kissed the woman’s lips.
The woman’s lips carried a light fragrance akin to pure and fresh spring water. He could get enough of this taste.
