In that instant, the thugs all vanished in a puff of smoke and their ashes were scattered into the air. They did not even have the chance to scream.
The Murong family members were stunned. They turned in astonishment towards the girl in green robes in front of them, temporarily unable to make sense of it all.
After all, the man with the scar was not exactly weak in power. He was at least a Martial Emperor or a rank above. Besides, there were many others as well. However, in the end, this woman had destroyed them all using only one move?
What kind of holy being is she?
Even though Gu Ruoyun had stayed with the Murong family at one point, this young man had never lived in the Murong family home. He had been sent to guard the ancestral residence and would only return every few months or so. So, naturally, he would not have been aware of Gu Ruoyun's existence...
"Members of the Murong family?"
Gu Ruoyun raised an eyebrow as she turned calmly towards the people behind her and asked.
The young man immediately returned to his senses and quickly nodded his head, "I am the group leader of the Murong family's bodyguards. I wonder, Miss..."
"Oh, I want to ask this, do you know where the Wolf's Fang Robbers' den is?" Gu Ruoyun glanced at the young man and asked in a voice that was reminiscent of a cool breeze on a clear day.
"Ah?" The young man was stunned, "The Wolf's Fang Robbers' den is not very far from here. See the highest peak on that mountain range? That's where they are. But the Wolf's Fang Robbers are very powerful and I hear that their Leader is already a mid-level Martial Honor. Also, the Second-in-command has just reached the rank of a Martial Honor. Miss, you..."
Before the young man could finish speaking, the flash of green robes turned into a ray of light and flew at full speed away into the far distance, instantly disappearing from view.
"Group leader, who was that woman and why had she helped us?" Someone asked from behind him as they stared in confusion at the direction where Gu Ruoyun had flown off in.
The young man shook his head, "I don't know either. But let's not worry about that now, our priority is to send these herbs back to our master."
He then took one last look in the direction where Gu Ruoyun had left as if it was an unconscious move, before turning away and leading the group towards Black Rock City once again...
The Gigantic Summit.
This was the tallest mountain peak in the area and because of its treacherous path, it became the Wolf's Fang Robbers' residence.
At this moment, high on top of the Gigantic Summit, Gu Ruoyun had just stepped in when two figures appeared in a flash, blocking her way.
"Who are you? Do you not know what this place is? Hurry up and leave if you wish to live."
"Who am I?"
Gu Ruoyun laughed coldly and raised her head towards the two fiendish-looking mugs. The aura from within her body stirred and shot towards the chest of one of the men with a loud bang. The force sent him flying away with fresh blood spilling out from his mouth.
"I'm the person who's here to kill all of you!"
Bang!
Just as she spoke, her fist slammed into the door in the mountain. The tightly secured door swung open, sending dust flying into the air.
"How dare you!"
The other man, after seeing his comrade beaten to the ground and the mountain door blown open, was immediately enraged. He drew his sword in his anger and charged towards Gu Ruoyun.
Gu Ruoyun merely glanced calmly at him. Then, as if a hand had reached out and violently pinched his soul, his body which had been charging towards Gu Ruoyun stopped suddenly. His gaze slowly turned sluggish.
"Ask the Leader of your crew to roll his *ss over here and meet me!"
She calmly raised the corners of her lips. Her voice was icy yet clear, slowly resonating as she spoke.
"Simply tell him that I, Gu Ruoyun, have arrived to see him."
