When Grand Lord Hong Lian saw the look on the woman’s face, he felt apprehensive, “It can’t be like what Murong Qian has said. Qianbei Ye, he…”
“Father,” Gu Ruoyun chuckled. “Don’t you trust Xiao Ye? He’s not that kind of person! It’s a long story but there’s one thing that I can tell you now! There’s someone who looks exactly like Qianbei Ye and his name is Cang Ming! Cang Ming’s identity is still unclear but not only does he look like Xiao Ye, but his aura is also exactly alike. This was the reason why the citizens of the Underworld have been fooled.”
Cultivators can differentiate people not just through their appearance alone. What matters the most was their aura! Therefore, if the aura was the same, any cultivator, no matter how powerful, would have been fooled.
As Grand Lord Hong Lian listened to her explanation, his suspicions deepened. “Yun’er, are you certain that someone else has the same aura as Qianbei Ye?”
Gu Ruoyun nodded in conviction. “That’s right! In the beginning, Cang Ming had masqueraded as Qianbei Ye and followed me around, trying to find an opportunity to snatch a treasure in my possession. However, I had seen right through him and it was Qianbei Ye who had rushed over to save me. In order to save me from getting hurt, he had used a formation to seal me off and left to fight Cang Ming! I had to stay in that formation for three years before I was able to leave! Now, I have no idea how that fight between Xiao Ye and Cang Ming had turned out! However, I assume that both sides ended up getting seriously injured!”
Gu Ruoyun di not want Grand Lord Hong Lian to be worried about her so she had revealed everything which had happened in the end.
Once Grand Lord Hong Lian discovered that the person who had impregnated Murong Qian was not Qianbei Ye, his heart immediately felt more at ease. However, when he remembered that Qianbei Ye’s whereabouts were still unknown, his ease turned into worry again.
“Yun’er, I will send everyone in the Red Lotus Territory to look for Qianbei Ye after this.”
“The Secret Order will do so as well.”
The Secret Order’s Order Master stepped out and smiled. “Lady Gu, give that man’s portrait to me after this. I will mobilize everyone in the First City to find him for you! Since you had lost contact with him on the East Peak Mainland, I will send every citizen in the First City to journey across the mainland! With so many people involved, I believe that we will find him.”
She was talking about the First City, not the Secret Order.
In all of the First City, only the members of the Secret Order were this courageous. Even the Governor has no way of mobilizing the whole of First City to look for one person…
“Alright.”
Gu Ruoyun nodded.
With the participation of so many people, it was much better than her looking for him alone blindly.
“Xiao Xun’er, I’m your maternal grandmother.”
Dongfang Yu stepped in front of Xiao Xun’er and lifted the little fellow from Grand Lord Hong Lian’s arms. “Come, call me Maternal Grandmother. I’d like to hear it.”
Xiao Xun’er knitted his adorable brows, “Maternal grandmother, can you put Xun’er down?”
Dongfang Yu was stunned. “Why?”
“Because mother says that it is improper for men and women to touch each other. Xun’er is a man and Maternal Grandmother is a woman. How can you hold Xun’er?”
His words were like a stroke of lightning. Everyone was shocked into tender crispiness from Xiao Xun’er’s words.
Dongfang Yu did not hold back. She burst into laughter and looked at Gu Ruoyun with a smile in her eyes, “Did you teach him this?”
Gu Ruoyun looked rather embarrassed. “It’s like this, Xiao Xun’er doesn’t have any concept of men and women and wanted to take his trousers off in front of a little maiden so I had taught him this phrase. Unexpectedly, he has actually learned it and is applying it with full vigor.”
