Chapter 1174: The Woman In White (1)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"I can agree to your request." Gu Ruoyun fell silent for a moment before a light flashed in her eyes. "However, regardless of whether you can obtain that inheritance or now, half of Wind Valley will still belong to me!"
Gu Ruoyun was really not very interested in obtaining half of Wind Valley but she would not turn down the opportunity either!
"Furthermore..." She paused before she continued to speak. "If I ever find out that you have any ulterior motives, believe me, even a pill master can become a poison master! I don't think I need to elaborate on the consequences."
A man who had been able to conceal his true nature for so many years was more dangerous than Feng Xiaoxiao.
Hence, Gu Ruoyun would not trust him so easily!
"You..." The gray-robed men's expression changed drastically as their eyes filled with anger. One of them was just about to speak when Feng Yuqing raised his hand to cut him off.
Feng Yuqing's gaze landed upon Gu Ruoyun's face. He then smiled gently. "Don't worry, You extremely useful to me. I won't do anything to you. However, if I can't obtain that inheritance, I cannot give you half of Wind Valley because I may not be able to regain the position as Young Master of Wind Valley successfully. However, I can agree with your other requests."
"Alright." After a bout of deep thought, Gu Ruoyun nodded. "When do we leave?"
"Let's leave now. We should be able to reach that place before it gets dark."
Feng Yuqing slowly rose to his feet before he declared serenely, "Let's go."
On a high mountain.
There was a sudden influx of powerful cultivators along the rugged and uneven road. As a result, the quiet mountain range was filled with humans in its habitat.
At this time, Gu Ruoyun was sweeping her gaze across every single person while she was halfway up the mountain. Her heart sank when she sensed the scale of their powers.
"It seems that these ruins have attracted quite a few powerful cultivators. Some have even reached the late stage of the exceptional state and are only one step away from the refined state."
Feng Yuqing may have brought two exceptional state cultivators along but those two were at the early stage of the exceptional state. They could not be compared to a late stage cultivator.
The other cultivators have clearly noticed the group who had just arrived. After seeing that the newcomers' powers were of no threat to them, they did not say much before they quickly turned away and made their way towards the top of the mountain not too far away.
"The ruins should be at the top of the mountain." Feng Yuqing's gaze sank and his expression showed a sense of seriousness. "Lady Gu, if any danger should arrive after this, I want you to hide behind Feng Yi and Feng Wu."
The ones addressed as Feng Yi and Feng Wu were the two gray-robed men who had followed Feng Yuqing very closely.
Feng Yuqing had asked them to protect Gu Ruoyun not because he wanted her to stay safe but for his own benefit! After all, a pill master's existence would be extremely useful in a party like this! Hence, she must never be endangered. Otherwise, they could not be sure of what might happen.
Gu Ruoyun gently nodded and did not say much.
Even though her safety was ensured as she has Zixie by her side, under most circumstances, she does not wish to expose Zixie to the eyes of the world.
"Mm?" Suddenly, Gu Ruoyun's eyes diverted towards a woman in the crowd. When she noticed the markstone carried by the woman, a light flashed in her eyes. "The Charm Sect? I never thought that I would run into members of the Charm Sect again at a place like this."
The woman from the Charm Sect clearly sensed the eyes staring at her from behind. She furrowed her willowy brows and turned towards Gu Ruoyun. However, the woman's gaze did not rest long on Gu Ruoyun before it turned towards Feng Yuqing who was right next to her...

Is the woman in white referring to the woman from charm sect or her mother?

"Tsk, tsk, tsk."
The woman from the Charm Sect giggled seductively as her coquettish gaze wandered about. Her pretty and charming figure then glided towards Feng Yuqing. "I never expected the Second Young Master of Wind Valley to turn up in a place like this. Could it be that you're interested in these ruins as well, Sir Feng?"
The Second Young Master of Wind Valley?
The cultivators around them turned towards Gu Ruoyun and the others when they heard this as their eyes filled with shock.
Wasn't the Second Master of Wind Valley reduced to a good-for-nothing? What's he doing at a place like this?
"I heard the news about the unearthed ruins in this area. I only want to take a look and bring some treasures back for my father and older sister Xiaoxiao while I'm at it." Feng Yuqing curled his lips as he replied sloppily, "So what that the members of the Charm Sect are here as well? Then again, Elder Mei, you really are getting more and more beautiful. Because of your presence here, I feel as though these ruins have lost their attractiveness."
Feng Yuqing no longer carried his calm and composed air. His entire persona was now like a hedonistic son of a rich family who was teasing a lady.
However, no one knows that deep down in his heart, Feng Yuqing was ready to vomit. This woman may look young but she was actually past the age of fifty and he was still forced to sprout such nauseating words. It was really disgusting.
"Tsk, tsk." Elder Mei giggled seductively but a hint of loathing flashed in her eyes.
This fellow is quite good looking but it's unfortunate that he's only a good-for-nothing! If it wasn't for the fact that he was the Second Young Master of Wind Valley, I wouldn't even bother myself with this good-for-nothing. He's teasing me like a toad wishing to eat swan meat.
"Young Sir Feng, may I ask who this woman is to you?"
She frowned gently as she spoke, observing Gu Ruoyun.
Feng Yunqing's heart shivered yet he continued to carry a bantering smile. "Elder Mei, when it comes to a woman who is tagging along with me, who do you think she is to me?"
The meaning behind his words was vague and Elder Mei was immediately enlightened.
The Second Young Master of Wind Valley has always been promiscuous. He would change his female companions like he was changing clothes. Therefore, any woman who was allowed to tag along with him can only be one of his lovers.
Elder Mei turned towards Gu Ruoyun as she thought of this. She then raised her brows and asked, "My Lady, may I ask for your name..."
"Nianye. My name is Gu Nianye," came Gu Ruoyun's slow reply.
The Charm Sect and Wind Valley share a rather friendly relationship so Elder Mei must be aware of Gu Ruoyun's name. Besides, based on Feng Yuqing's response, it was obvious that he wants to conceal her identity. Under these circumstances, she had no choice but to use her alias again.
"Gu Nianye?"
Elder Mei fell momentarily silent. She has never heard of this name before and her suspicions were alleviated.
"Young Sir Feng, let me give you a piece of advice. These ruins are far too dangerous. Based on your level of power, coming here would spell doom for you and you've even brought a stepchild along?" Elder Mei's eyes flickered as she exclaimed, "If Lady Xiaoxiao was to find out about this, I'm afraid that she would be furious."
Feng Yuqing burst into laughter. "I never thought that you would care about me so much, Elder Mei, I am truly overwhelmed by your favor. How about you come and see me at Wind Valley after this? I've long wanted to sleep with you, Elder Mei."
Elder Mei's expression turned into ice. However, she soon reverted to her normal demeanor and smiled seductively, "Don't joke around, Young Sir Feng, how can I accept your generosity? I must leave now as I have some matters to attend to. I'll see you again at the ruins."

Even a good-for-nothing would have delusions of having me, he must be dreaming!
Elder Mei scoffed as she wiggled her delicate little waist and headed towards the Charm Sect's party.
Feng Yuqing exhaled as he watched her leave. "She's finally gone! I was afraid that I would accidentally expose your identity if she continued to ask questions. Lady Gu, you must not let them discover that you are Gu Ruoyun, no matter what!"
Gu Ruoyun nodded. Her gaze had remained fixed upon Elder Mei's disappearing figure but her thoughts were concealed from others.
"By the way." Feng Yuqing turned towards Gu Ruoyun before he continued, "You're probably not aware of the situation at Charm Sect. Due to their unique cultivation techniques, the Charm Sect requires its members to sleep with men to absorb their power to replenish their vitality. Hence, the disciples of Charm Sect are not only talented and powerful, most importantly, they have the recipe for eternal youth! Elder Mei might look very young but she's already more than fifty years old now."
Gu Ruoyun curled her lips. "It looks like you have quite a hardcore preference to even consider someone of that age?"
Feng Yuqing's expression froze when he heard this. He then smiled bitterly. "I don't have much of a choice, do I? Everyone knows that I'm flirtatious and promiscuous so I can only use these methods to chase her away! Otherwise, if she insists on entering the ruins with us, how do we refuse her?"
Heaven knew how much he had wanted to vomit as he was saying those words! However, he had no other choice but to act this way to chase Elder Mei away.
"Let's go."
The crowd has begun to move and Feng Yuqing rose to his feet as well. His wise and farsighted eyes flickered with a faint light.
At the high mountain.
Even though there were many spiritual beasts around, they had hidden away when they sensed the great number of powerful cultivators, afraid of provoking these gate-crashers. Hence, Gu Ruoyun and others did not run into any fearsome spiritual beasts along the way up the high mountain.
However, Feng Yuqing's expression has grown even more somber. His eyes stared darkly at the top of the mountain a short distance away as a light flashed in his gaze.
"I can sense it, there seems to be something abnormal at the top of this mountain." His eyes then slowly sank. "Perhaps our exploration of these ruins won't be as easy as I had thought."
Nevertheless, he has to try. This was the only way he could defeat Feng Xiaoxiao!
Besides, if he could obtain that inheritance, not only would he regain his powers, he would even rise to a whole new state...
"Elder Mei, why do you think that Feng Yuqing has come all the way here?"
A black-robed woman in the Charm Sect group raised her willowy brows urgently as she stared at Feng Yuqing with a complicated look on her face, deep in consideration.
"Do I really need to mention it?" Elder Mei laughed icily. "Why else would a good-for-nothing like Feng Yuqing be here? He's here to find out if there's anything in these ruins that can help restore his power, what else? Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tries, he'll never be able to do it! Elder Yun, we don't need to inform Feng Xiaoxiao about this. This good-for-nothing Feng Yuqing is going to come back empty-handed anyway."
The woman who had been addressed as Elder Yun's gaze sank. After a long pause, she turned her attention towards Gu Ruoyun and exclaimed, "I don't know why but I can't shake off the feeling that this woman isn't as simple as she seems."
Elder Mei glanced at Gu Ruoyun and sneered, "This woman is only sticking to Feng Yunqing's side because she's taken a fancy to his title as the Second Young Master of Wind Valley. Otherwise, why would she curry favor from a good-for-nothing?"

Elder Yun did not reply but her eyes remained fixed upon Gu Ruoyun, unsure if she was mistaken or not. She could not shake off the feeling that this woman was not all that simple, at least not like what Elder Mei says Gu Ruoyun was.
"Let's go."
She pondered for a short while before she ordered calmly and turned away.
"Roar!"
Just as the crowd was about to reach the top of the mountain, an angry roar rang out from the top of the mountain. It was so powerful that the entire mountain range shook.
"Looks like someone is battling against a spiritual beast at the top of the mountain!"
Feng Yuqing's eyes sank as he fixed his gaze on the top of the mountain. He was momentarily silent before he said, "Come, let's go have a look. I can sense that the cultivator who is battling against that spiritual beast is very powerful. Her power seems to surpass everyone amongst us."
Gu Ruoyun's heart gradually reached an all-time-low. Honestly speaking, she had not come to the ruins for the sake of helping Feng Yuqing. She was here for the inheritance as well! Hence, when she sensed the strong energy fluctuations from the battle, her heart sank.
She must have that inheritance in the ruins no matter what!
A sense of determination filled her eyes. Gu Ruoyun no longer analyzed the situation further as she made her way towards the top of the mountain.
An angry roar sounded. The scene of a huge black dragon battling with a white-robed woman in midair was then revealed to them.
The woman was dressed in snowy-white robes. Her incomparably beautiful features were frosted over with a layer of ice while her eyes were exceptionally cold and distant. The white-robed woman was staring at the black dragon scornfully. However, when Gu Ruoyun's eyes fell upon the absolute beauty's features, her heart suddenly soared.
This woman's facial features were far too similar to hers, it was as if they have been carved from the same mold. Only, in contrast with her clear and cold aloofness, the white-robed woman's features were clearly more gentle.
"Evil creature, I'm only passing by. Why must you stand in my way?"
The woman in white glared at the black dragon icily. The chill in her voice could cut one to the bone.
"Those who trespass will die!"
The black dragon roared loudly before its gigantic body charged towards the woman in white once again.
"Since you insist on digging your own grave, I don't mind slaying a dragon!" The white-robed woman laughed icily. Her white robes pierced through the skies as she charged towards the black dragon at top speed.
The crowd could only see a blur as the white-robed woman, who was several meters away from the large dragon, reappeared in front of it.
"Roar!"
As the woman in white appeared in front of him, the large dragon spat out its dragon's breath. A black and rotten-smelling dragon's breath then burst towards the woman in white's beautiful features.
Swoosh!
The woman in white raised her sword and sliced the oncoming dragon's breath into two. She then appeared behind the black dragon in a flash. The longsword moved like a flash of light before it sliced fiercely at the dragon's body with great force.
Slash!
The longsword pierced into the black dragon's back. He shrieked from the agony and violently thrashed, trying to throw the woman off his back.
"This is price you wil pay for standing in my way!"
Slash!
The woman in white swiftly pulled the longsword out and black-colored blood splattered out like a fountain. She then took several steps back before raising her longsword once again...
Instantly, the heavens and earth lost their color while the sun and the moon dimmed as an infinite amount of power gathered into the longsword. This power slowly condensed into a round ball of wind around the longsword! The whirling ball then slashed downwards along with the sword. A loud bang sounded before the world returned to peace after the tremors.

The black dragon's body swayed a little before it fell weakly onto the ground. His body was so big that it covered the entire mountain's peak. Blood flowed endlessly and soon covered the entire ground in a rotten-smelling black gunk.
"She's so powerful!"
Feng Yuqing's gaze sharpened. For such a powerful black dragon to be rendered defenseless in her hands, just how powerful was this woman?
Gu Ruoyun's lips gently trembled as her eyes remained fixed upon the fairy-like figure in white robes. She could not contain herself from stepping forward as her gaze turned from its initial calm demeanor to excitement. Her heart was trembling now.
Is that her?
If that isn't her, who else in this world could possibly look so much like me?
However, before she could speak, the woman in snow-white robes stepped into the void and disappeared before everyone's eyes. She never spared the crowd at the bottom of the mountain a single glance as if she had not noticed their existence.
"That's right, that must be her!"
Gu Ruoyun's heart slowly filled with determination as her eyes stared fixedly at the spot where the woman in white had been. Her gaze was now filled with a new resolution.
"Since she's here, I must find her even if I have to travel to the ends of the earth!"
The woman in white had left too quickly, leaving Gu Ruoyun no chance to react at all. However, as long as Dongfang Yu was in the First City, they would meet each other sooner or later...
"The ruins should be right behind the black dragon." Feng Yuqing did not seem to notice the peculiar look on Gu Ruoyun's face as he turned his attention towards the ancient ruins to their front. "If my guess is correct, this black dragon must have been a spiritual beast placed here to guard the ruins! He would stop anyone from entering the ruins. It was a good thing that the white-robed woman had helped us to solve this problem. Otherwise, I'm afraid that we can't possibly defeat this black dragon even if we had all joined forces. However, I wonder where that woman's origins were to have such great power."
Admiration filled Feng Yuqing's eyes. He really hopes to have the power to slay dragons someday.
Gu Ruoyun smiled and walked towards the dragon which was lying in the pool of blood. She then took out the broken sword from the Ancient Divine Pagoda and slowly bent down.
"What is that girl doing?"
"Who knows?"
The crowd was shocked at the sight of Gu Ruoyun's action yet no one paid any attention to her.
Very soon, when they saw what Gu Ruoyun was doing, they were dumbstruck.
She had used the broken sword to slash the black dragon's stomach open. She then dug out the dragon's heart. When the bloody dragon's heart came into view, everyone stared blankly and even more foolishly than before as they fixed their astonished stares upon Gu Ruoyun.
"Lady Gu, what are you doing?" Feng Yuqing, who was also shocked, asked.
"A black dragon's heart is a rare treasure."
Gu Ruoyun smiled. This black dragon was not like the rest of the dragon clan. They were vegetarians and use medicinal herbs for sustenance! Hence, a black dragon's body, which has been tempered by countless types of medicinal herbs, was a treasure from head to tail, especially the dragon's heart. When one uses the heart to refine pills, it will bring rather impressive effects.
However, it was a pity that she could not take the dragon's body with her. Otherwise, it would draw too much attention.
Gu Ruoyun shook her head and put the black dragon's heart away. She then headed to Feng Yuqing's side. "Let's go," she said with a raised brow. "Let's go and find out what kind of treasures lie within these ruins."
