Nangong Yue's expression was an extremely ugly sight to behold and a cold light flashed across her elegant face.
"Miss, are you sure that you want to refuse my offer? Honestly, no one has ever dared to disobey me even when I was a child. Are you sure that you're not willing to become my bodyguard? If you still wish to continue after ten years, I can pay you ten thousand gold pieces every year. Would you reject this as well?"
Nangong Yue simply could not believe this travel-worn woman who obviously looked to be from an impoverished family. Ten thousand gold pieces, most people would give their lives for that kind of money and yet she had refused...
This woman is definitely putting up a noble and virtuous act!
"I'm not interested."
Gu Ruoyun did not even bother to raise her head as her clear, cold voice rang out, "Furthermore, I want you to get out of the way this instant!"
"You..." Nangong Yue trembled with rage. She asked again, "I'll give you one last chance, do you agree or not?! If you refuse, I will take you back to the governor's palace."
"Out of the way!"
Her voice was clear and light but Nangong Yue could feel a fist slamming into her chest suddenly. She spat out a mouthful of blood and fell from her steed.
"My Lady!"
The bodyguards behind Nangong Yue turned pale and quickly helped her back onto her feet. They then turned towards Gu Ruoyun and said, "You've hurt the Lady of our family. Clearly, you're looking for death. Let's kill this woman and help our Lady vent her frustration!"
One bodyguard remained behind to support Nangong Yue as the rest of the group charged towards Gu Ruoyun.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Countless blades of wind slowly appeared in front of Gu Ruoyun. They pierced through the sky and flew towards the people charging towards her. In that moment, blood splattered everywhere, dyeing the ground red. All the bodyguards held their necks which were now bleeding profusely. Their anguished cries shook the ground.
Nangong Yue was dazed with shock and her body trembled slightly. When Gu Ruoyun walked pass next to her, she did not even have to courage to stop her...
After a long pause, once Gu Ruoyun had finally disappeared, the leader finally returned to his senses and hurriedly rushed to Nangong Yue's side.
"My Lady."
"Get away from me!"
Nangong Yue pushed the leader aside and scrambled to her feet, "You utterly useless pieces of trash, you couldn't even defeat one woman. Nurturing you was only a waste of our food and resources. I'm going to inform my father about this. Let my father send his men to take care of that woman!"
Then, she leaped onto her horse and cracked the whip fiercely, racing towards the Tranquil Mountain City governor's palace at top speed.
At this moment, in the governor's official residence, the governor who had just returned from the banquet at Black Rock City was sitting in his study and reading a letter. A familiar figure then flew into the room and ran quickly towards him.
"Father, someone has hit your daughter, you must avenge me!"
"What?"
The Tranquil Mountain City governor was astonished. He immediately tossed the letter in his hand down and swiftly rose to his feet. He asked anxiously, "Yue'er, who dares to lay their hand on you?"
"It was a woman in green robes." Nangong Yue fiercely gritted her teeth. Every time when she thought of that pure, honest and calm-looking face, she would have the urge to want to tear her to shreds, "That woman is about twenty years of age and she's very good at acting. She looked cool and calm the entire time, clearly acting noble and virtuous."
