Chapter 203: Evil Gets Its Just Deserts (6)
Three years had passed. During these three years, she had continued to develop her organisations. It was about time to put an end to everything...
"Yunyao, Tianqiong!"
The young woman raised her head and spoke in an indifferent tone: "Settle this matter together with Hundred Herb Hall!"
When she finished speaking, two bright lights shot up into the sky; white and blue twining together before they finally burst out to reveal two figures.
The moment Imperial Concubine Ling saw the Azure Dragon dominating the sky above, her expression completely changed. She had thought that Gu Ruoyun was still living because the Azure Dragon had reneged on their promise. She couldn't have imagined that the Azure Dragon had been subdued by Gu Ruoyun.
No!
She covered her mouth and retreated a few steps. Shock and despair shone in those beautiful eyes of hers.
Gu Ruoyun sensed her movements and smiled, "That's right, I haven't thanked you yet. If it hadn't been for you, Yunyao and Tianqiong wouldn't have been able to reunite with each other, and I wouldn't have gotten such a great assistant!"
Although the Azure Dragon's power was gone, he was still pretty useful in intimidating others. When the people in the imperial palace saw the enormous dragon in the sky, blocking out the sun, they were scared silly. Who would dare to make any move after seeing that?
"The Azure Dragon, Tianqiong?"
Leng Wujing's face turned pale. If he hadn't heard wrongly, Gu Ruoyun had called this blue dragon Tianqiong.
"The Azure Dragon, Tianqiong. This emperor has read of it in ancient texts before. From what I read, it's supposed to be extremely strong. Anyone controlling it will surely become a ruler of the mainland!"
A ruler of the mainland is on a completely different level from an emperor of a single country. Only an expert can make everyone on the mainland submit to them!
However, what had he just done? For the sake of a moment of pride, he had made an enemy out of this person?
He made a mistake! A really bad mistake!
Someone who could make Tianqiong serve them willingly was probably protected by the god of luck. Someone like that would surely stand at the peak of all humans, and he had just made a vain attempt to kill her to protect his imperial dignity...
If he had known this earlier, he wouldn't have tried to keep his dignity or his imperial might!
Actually, Leng Wujing couldn't be blamed for his actions. Gu Ruoyun had charged directly for the imperial palace after subduing the Azure Dragon at the Ling estate. The news couldn't possibly have reached him in time. How could he have known that the Azure Dragon Tianqiong had become the young woman's mount?
Of course, the one who was in even greater regret was Imperial Concubine Ling.
If she hadn't requested for the great Azure Dragon to kill this woman, she wouldn't have been able to subdue him... But she still couldn't understand one thing: why did the great and proud Azure Dragon submit to such a malicious woman?
"Do you hate me?"
Gu Ruoyun gazed upon Imperial Concubine Ling's features, twisted in poisonous hatred, and started to smile, "What a pity. All you can do is hate me. There are so many others who hate me, I don't mind adding one more! Elder Yu, take care of the rest. I don't want to see her alive, and I don't want her to die easy."
After saying so, she turned and walked to Luo Hongtian's side. She paused for a moment before speaking up: "Uncle Luo, what do you intend to do next?"
Luo Hongtian smiled bitterly: "I can't stay in Azure Dragon Country anymore. I'll just take each day as it comes from now on."
Gu Ruoyun thought for a moment: "I wonder if Uncle Luo would be willing to help me with something?"
"I can help you with anything you need."
Luo Hongtian smiled. He thought that Gu Ruoyun would send him to Hundred Herb Hall for some tasks. He didn't know that the young woman had intended to send him somewhere else.
"That's right. Girl, can I ask something? What's your cultivation rank now?"
When she heard this question, Gu Ruoyun rubbed her nose and said: "I managed to break through into the peak stage of martial general last night, by a stroke of luck."
Following that, under Luo Hongtian's dazed stare, she walked out of the palace gates with quick strides...
