Panda Novel

The next day.

Gu Ruoyun had just stepped out of her bedroom in a guest house in Forest City when she came face-to-face with Grand Lord Hong Lian and Dongfang Yu who had both emerged from their room as well.

"Father, Mother, what's your next move?"

She had paused to think for a while before she asked.

Grand Lord Hong Lian and Dongfang Yu looked at each other before turning their attention to Gu Ruoyun.

"Yun'er, I need to head back to the Red Lotus Territory and bring the forces of Red Lotus Territory to the First City. Will you be returning with us or..."

"No."

Gu Ruoyun shook her head. "I still have some other matters to complete. You go back first, I'll wait for you in the First City."

"Alright." Grand Lord Hong Lian nodded. "Take good care of yourself."

With Qianbei Ye by her side, this little girl was far better protected than anyone else.

If that had not been the case, he would never have been able to leave with Dongfang Yu without worrying about Gu Ruoyun's safety...

After saying their goodbyes, both parties went their separate ways.

Gu Ruoyun took one last look at Grand Lord Hong Lian and Dongfang Yu as they left. She then turned around and said, "Xiao Ye, let's go."

"Yun'er." Qianbei Ye raised his hand and pulled Gu Ruoyun into his arms. His lips were curled into a roguish smile. "Come with me, I'm taking you somewhere!"

"What?"

Gu Ruoyun was confused. Before she could return to her senses, her body was lifted into the sky and onto thin air.

The man's hand was holding onto her body gently and that reassuring feeling made her entire body relax. Her beautiful features were also enveloped in a tender light as she stared unblinkingly at the man's beautiful features.

"Xiao Ye, where are you taking me?"

Her heart was full of curiosity and she could not help but ask.

"You'll find out soon enough."

Qianbei Ye smiled secretively and did not give any more information to Gu Ruoyun. Instead, he swiftly made his way forward before turning into a crimson beam of light and disappearing into the void.

Gu Ruoyun felt a flash in front of her before they reappeared in front of a mountain cave. When she felt the powerful energy emanating from the cave, she stared at Qianbei Ye in astonishment. "Xiao Ye, this is..."

"I had hidden in this cave when I was wounded and also noticed the abnormalities within this cave. Come, let's go inside."

Qianbei Ye held Gu Ruoyun's hand as they walked into the cave.

A strange and sinister atmosphere filled the cave. From the moment she set foot in the cave, Gu Ruoyun could sense that something was not right. It was a good thing that she has the Ancient Divine Pagoda. With the addition of Qianbei Ye, it was far more tolerable.

"Xiao Ye, why have you brought me here?"

Gu Ruoyun raised her lips as she turned towards the peerless-looking man next to her and asked tenderly.

"Look..."

Qianbei Ye stopped and pointed in front of him. When Gu Ruoyun turned around, she felt a sinister aura whirling towards her.

An infinitely black-colored flame was hovering not too far away, releasing a strange light. It resonated with an intolerably eerie chill. The flames glared at the two intruders like a tiger watching its prey. It almost seemed as if it were opening its large mouth, ready to swallow them whole.

"This is..."

Gu Ruoyun was shocked. She does not know why but she could sense an extremely valiant energy from within the flames.

"This is the Nine Underworld Flames." Qianbei Ye smiled. "The Nine Underworld Flames is a rare treasure in this world. Once a cultivator consumes the Nine Underworld Flames, not only will they be able to control it, it can also increase their level of power as well."
