“Lord Left Emissary.”
Wen Ya rose to her feet at the sight of the Left Emissary’s love-filled gaze. Her light yellow robes made her look very noble while her face displayed a graceful smile. “Yue’er has been anticipating today’s wedding ceremony! She has even said many times that she will never marry unless her husband was you, Lord Left Emissary! Now, her wish has been granted. I only ask that you treat Yue’er well, Lord Left Emissary.”
“Don’t worry. Yue’er is my wife and I will never let her suffer any grief nor will I allow anyone to take her away from me.”
The Left Emissary’s gaze was tender as he stared lovingly at the woman in front of him.
“Yue’er, from now on, you are my wife.”
He held Wen Yue’s hand as he spoke with certainty.
Wen Yue could not help but stiffen when she felt his large hand on hers. There was a bitter smile on her lips.
At this moment, she dearly wished to tell the Left Emissary that she was in love with someone else and wishes to marry someone else.
However, she could not do this. Otherwise, those people would end up torturing Gu Shengxiao to punish her!
“Elder Bai, Gu Ruoyun… Gu Ruoyun, she’s here and she has fought her way in!”
Just then, a figure rushed hurriedly into the hall and announced with an anxious look on his face.
Gu Ruoyun!
That person was no stranger to the Secret Order!
That day, it was this woman who had subdued the Secret Order’s Sacred Beast and received the Order Master’s approval. She had also received the right to claim the Secret Order’s inheritance! However, Gu Ruoyun had failed to receive the Secret Order’s inheritance!
Ever since her failure, she had left the Secret Order and never returned!
Hence, the Secret Order’s disciples guessed that her failure had angered the Order Master who had then chased her out.
These people do not know what the actual inheritance was. All they had seen was that Gu Ruoyun’s power has not increased so they had believed that she had failed to receive the inheritance! Therefore, when she returns to the Secret Order, she must be stopped at the door!
However, Gu Ruoyun did not treat the Secret Order with courtesy this time and had stormed in right away.
“Gu Ruoyun? She dares to cause trouble in the Secret Order?” The Left Emissary’s expression was ugly beyond compare. He looked at Elder Bai who was seated above the high hall and said, “Master, Gu Ruoyun was the one who had slandered me in front of Elder Tianren and caused Elder Tianren to put me in solitary confinement!”
It looks like the Left Emissary had not repented his past actions and instead, took advantage of the Order Master and Elder Tianren’s absence to push all the blame onto Gu Ruoyun’s head.
“Hmph!”
The protective Elder Bai scoffed coldly and spoke in an expressionless manner, “What kind of place does she think the Secret Order is? Is this a place where she can trespass whenever she pleases? Since she has the audacity to come here, there’s no need for her to leave.”
Wen Ya did not speak but the smile of her face betrayed her.
She has been mulling over how to deal with Gu Ruoyun but she never expected Gu Ruoyun to serve herself up on a silver platter. Now, Gu Ruoyun has even provoked Elder Bai. No one could save her this time!
As Wen Ya was deep in her thoughts, she saw a familiar figure coming into view outside the great hall. This sight caused her smile to grow even wider.
Wen Ya shifted her gaze to look at the people accompanying Gu Ruoyun. Her eyes flashed with surprise when she saw the peerlessly beautiful man by Gu Ruoyun’s side. Such a gorgeous, peerless-looking man was a rare sight in the world nowadays!
Lastly, she noticed the black-robed man behind Gu Ruoyun and her pupils narrowed.
