Evil Emperor’s Wild Consort

”Miss Gu, it’s still pretty early. Perhaps I can escort you both to have a look at Green Maple City’s black market?” Ye Ying suddenly remembered something, and turned towards Gu Ruoyun.

”Black Market?”

Gu Ruoyun shook and stared at Ye Ying in astonishment.

”That’s right,” Ye Ying nodded. ” The black market of Green Maple City has always attracted many powerful cultivators and many strange oddities up for barter! If you’re lucky enough, perhaps you might even find a spiritual weapon. I believe, with your power, and the addition of a spiritual weapon, anyone below the rank of Martial Saint would be no match for you.”

Spiritual weapon, this was the item of dreams for many cultivators. However, Ye Ying was only shooting the breeze. After all, spiritual weapons are very valuable. Even with the many exotic oddities in the black market, it would be difficult to come across a spiritual weapon.

However, his words caught Gu Ruoyun’s attention.

”You say that there are many exotic oddities in the black market? Then, what about medicinal herbs?”

Gu Ruoyun gently stroked her chin, a bright light flashed in her eyes.

Ye Ying shook, then suddenly remembered who Gu Ruoyun was. He laughed involuntarily. ”Miss Gu, that goes without saying. There are indeed many medicinal herbs available in this black market. It all depends on your observation skills. Of course, I believe that as a pill master, this wouldn’t be a problem for you.”

”Alright, then let’s go treasure hunting at the black market. It’s only that, my brother is a little tired. Please send someone to escort him to get some rest.”

Gu Ruoyun raised her brow and said, as she had noticed that Xia Linyu was looking a little fatigued.

”Sister, I’m fine, I...”

”Yu’er, you go get some rest. I’ll be back soon.”

During this period of time, Xia Linyu had not managed to get a good rest, and because she had already broken through to the rank of Martial Supreme, she did not really feel all that tired, but he was different. At the moment, he was not strong enough, so he really needed to maintain his energy.

”Alright.”

Xia Linyu sighed. He knew that after days of such a difficult journey, his body would not be able to stand much longer.

Except, he did not wish to push everything onto his sister.

”Lan’er.” Ye Ying hurriedly shot Gu Lan a look, after hearing Xia Linyu’s reply. ”Take Sir Xia back to the mercenary unit to get some rest. Take good care of him.”

An ambiguous smile hung on the corner of his lips. His grey eyes surveyed Gu Lan and Xia Linyu.

Except, the two did not seem to pick up on anything inappropriate. Gu Lan giggled and stepped forward, her bright eyes that were not unlike the moon displayed a splendid light. ”Brother Xia, let’s go. I’ll escort you back to get some rest, and show you around out World Destruction Mercenary unit.”

Xia Linyu nodded, then took one last look at Gu Ruoyun and left with Gu Lan.

”Miss Gu, we should be on our way too.”

Ye Ying turned away and smiled at Gu Ruoyun.

”You’re trying to matchmake Gu Lan with Yu’er?” Gu Ruoyun smiled and raised her brows. She saw right through Ye Ying’s plans at first glance.

Ye Ying smiled uneasily. ”Gu Lan has been a part of our World Destruction Mercenaries for nearly a year now, but this is the first time she’s ever shown any interest in a man. So I want to give them the chance to have a deeper understanding. Would you have any objections, Miss Gu?”

Gu Ruoyun shrugged her shoulders. ”Xia Linyu may be my younger brother, but I will not restrict him. Anyone he likes will be my relative. Except, Yu’er is shouldering too much at the moment, and he has been feeling much too inferior at the moment. If you plan on matchmaking them, I’m afraid that it would be an extremely difficult feat.”

In their past lives, both Yu’er and I have suffered too much pain.
