"You’re now saying that my father should thank you?"

Gu Ruoyun’s voice was as clear and cold as ever yet it man Wen Ya tremble even more.

"I’m begging you now and you refuse to spare me?"

"If I didn’t give you this poison, I believe that you will definitely try to kill me after you leave." Gu Ruoyun looked at Wen Ya and said, "So, why should I spare you? Besides, if you know that this day would come, why had you committed those sins? I will slowly repay the Wen family for all the sins they have committed."

After saying her piece, she turned away and picked up the pebbles which she had placed on the ground.

"Time is almost up, I should undo the formation now."

The formation was released once the pebbles were collected. At that moment, the whole of Celestial Mountain was completely silent. The people who had left the arena earlier had their attention fixed upon Gu Ruoyun and Wen Ya as their eyes filled with shock.

She had lost!

Wen Ya had lost! She was now collapsed on the ground and did not have the power to fight. She did not even have the strength to stand up at all.

Whoosh!

The Left Emissary rose to his feet and clenched his fists in a tight grip before sighing.

It was a good thing that Wen Ya was still in the top three ranks. Even though she was not a champion, at least she could smoothly enter the Secret Order...

"Lord Left Emissary, there’s something I need to report!"

Murong Qian noticed the defeated Wen Ya and her tender features filled with a sense of hatred.

She had hoped that Wen Ya would defeat this woman but in the end, Wen Ya had lost.

She could not accept this, she could not accept Gu Ruoyun getting away with it.

"What is it?" The Left Emissary looked at MurongQian as he asked with a furrowed brow.

It was obvious that he does not have a very good impression of the spoiled and willful Eldest Lady of the Murong family.

"Lord Left Emissary, I had seen Gu Ruoyun give her subordinates several pills and as it happens, someone had broken into my room last night a stole a bottle of pills. I suspect that Gu Ruoyun was the one who had stolen my pills!"

Whoosh!

At that instant, all eyes turned towards Gu Ruoyun. Their gazes were filled with disdain and contempt.

That was right!

They had noticed this woman giving a pill to the purple-robed man who was standing next to her.

They never thought that someone would have the courage to steal another’s possession during the Secret Order’s assessment! Especially since the person they had stolen from was the Eldest Lady of the Murong family...

"Oh?"

A sense of shock flashed in the Left Emissary’s eyes. His gaze flickered as he turned towards Gu Ruoyun, "Has something like this happened? Gu Ruoyun, is the Eldest Lady Murong speaking the truth? Did you steal her pills?"

Murong Qian glared fiercely at Gu Ruoyun, "Gu Ruoyun, you little thief, if you’re so great, learn pill refinement on your own! What do you have to show by stealing someone else’s possession? Give me back my pills or you won’t have a moment’s peace!"

Someone had indeed stolen the pills which she had placed in her room. Now that Gu Ruoyun has shown that she has pills in her hand, where could they have come from if she had not stolen them?

She was only a woman from the secular world so she would not possibly have pills in her possession. Hence, she must have stolen those pills!

Each time Murong Qian thought about how this woman had stolen her pills, she would gnash her teeth in anger while the rage in her heart would deepen.

"Are you sure that the pills in my possession belong to you?" Gu Ruoyun turned towards Murong Qian and smiled calmly as she spoke.

Murong Qian scoffed and raised her chin haughtily, "If you didn’t steal it, where had you gotten them from? Coincidentally, someone had stolen from me last night. Only you, out of everyone else here, could have done such a thing! Gu Ruoyun, don’t you have any shame? Do you like to steal from others so much? Not only do you steal men but you would also steal pills. Is there a more shameless woman on this earth than you?"

Murong Qian had bribed the crowd in the arena. Once they heard her accusations, they all began to agree.

"That’s right, Lady Murong is right. Gu Ruoyun, you’ve stolen another person’s possession, you’re nothing. Hurry up and return the pills that you’ve stolen. Perhaps Lady Murong will be merciful and spare you!"

"If I were her, caught on the spot, I’d probably be so ashamed that I would never be able to show my face again She sure is great, looking so virtuous and noble while showing those pills so publicly too. Based on her origins from the secular world, how could she possibly possess any pills at all?"

"That’s right, not every organization in the First City has a pill master. Aside from the Three Great Protectors, only the first few names in second-rate organizations have pill masters! No matter how powerful this woman’s talents are, she can’t possibly have a pill master!"

The disdainful tone in the crowd’s voices greatly enraged Zi Yun. He quickly rose to his feet and cursed angrily, "What bullsh*t! My Master is a pill master so why should she steal another person’s pills? Don’t assume that only those organizations have pill masters in their ranks in all of the First City. You’re all a bunch of frogs in a well!"

Zi Yun was nearly mad with rage.

In his heart, Gu Ruoyun was a far superior pill master than the one in the Murong family. After all, in all of First City, only Gu Ruoyun had the ability to refine pills that could help a cultivator break through to the exceptional state. That Murong family pill master was nothing compared to this.

He was not even fit to carry her shoes!

"A pill master?" Murong Qian burst into laughter while her features filled with mockery, "Your lie is too absurd! Everyone knows that the pill masters of First City need many years of research to successfully refine a pill! How old is this little girl and you claim that she’s a pill master? Is that even possible? A thief is a thief. No matter how much you explain it, it won’t change the fact that she has stolen my pills!"
