Chapter 2151: White Hell Frost Lotus

"Whoa!" Yuan wasn't expecting to be attacked so suddenly, but he still managed to dodge her attack.

"Calm down! I am not your enemy!"

Hearing his familiar voice, the woman halted her movements and turned to look at his face. "You're... the

one from the cave..." the woman muttered in a weak voice.

"Hm? No wonder I find your face familiar. So you were that woman who came into my cave during my

cultivation in the sixth region," Yuan said after seeing her face clearly. "You look like you're on the verge

of death. Need some help?"

"It doesn't concern you... If you don't want to die, leave me alone," she said before turning around and

flying away.

Yuan didn't chase after her. However, he didn't leave either, almost as if he was waiting for something or

someone.

Sometime later, Yuan could sense several silhouettes appearing in the distance and prepared to confront

them. Within moments, these silhouettes arrived before Yuan. When they stopped, they immediately

surrounded and questioned him, "Who are you? And where's the woman?"

"Woman? What are you talking about?" Yuan asked, pretending to be ignorant of the situation.

"Don't play dumb. We know you met and spoke with that woman," said one of them.

Just as Yuan had sensed their presence from afar, those cultivators also detected his-and naturally, they

could tell he was with the woman. Though they had only been together briefly, it still marked them as

connected in some way.

"If you're talking about the injured woman I encountered just now, I don't know her or where she went.

Why are you guys chasing after her, anyway?" Yuan said a moment later.

There were four of them in a group, three men and one woman, and they were all between the second

and third level of God Ascension. In other words, they were all powerhouses. As for the woman, she was

only at the first level of God Ascension.

"If you don't know her, then why do you care about our business with her?"

"Not only was she greatly injured, but she was clearly running away from your group. If you have a good

reason for going after her, I won't interfere. I am just a concerned bystander, after all."

"Interface? What can you, a mere Golden Immortal, even do to stop us? We can kill you with a sneeze."

One of the male cultivators sneered in disdain.

"What can I do? You don't want to find out," Yuan responded with a calm smile. "If you're not doing

anything wrong, you won't have to, either."

"Enough!" The female cultivator suddenly barked. "Why the hell are we wasting our time on this meddler?

That bitch is getting away with our White Hell Frost Lotus!"

"White Hell Frost Lotus?" Yuan raised an eyebrow at the unfamiliar name. Still, he quickly pieced the

situation together-it was clear this group was chasing the woman for that treasure.

"You're right. Let's just kill him and get this over with! Gu Ruyan, you can take care of this bastard. We'll

go on ahead."

"Leave him to me. It will only take a few moments to erase his existence from this world," said the man

named Gu Ruyan.

Without another word, the other three left the scene to chase after the woman. Yuan didn't stop them and

focused on the man surnamed Gu before him. Latest content published on novel-fire.ɴet

"Your surname is Gu? Do you happen to be from Seven Legacy Families?" Yuan asked, realizing that it'd

been a long time since he last spoke of their name.

Gu Ruyan's eyes widened slightly with surprise. "You know me? And you still decided to stand in my

way?"

Yuan chuckled and said, "No, I have no clue who you are. In fact, this is my first time hearing your name.

That said, I have had several encounters with the Gu Family before, so I am very familiar with your family."

Gu Ruyan narrowed his eyes at Yuan, uncertain whether he was a friend or foe of the Gu Family. If Yuan

turned out to be an ally, the situation would become far more complicated-and killing him would not be

so easy. "What's your relationship with my Gu Family?" Gu Ruyan asked.

"We're good friends," Yuan lied, a bright smile on his face.

"R-Really?" Gu Ruyan was speechless.

"No, I am joking."

"You!" Gu Ruyan's expression immediately darkened, his gaze full of anger and killing intent. "How dare

you mock me!"

"Relax, that was a joke as well. I really am friends with the Gu Family-but the one I know is from the

lower heavens," Yuan said calmly.

"The lower heavens? Why would you be familiar with-" Gu Ruyan suddenly halted his words, and his

expression grew grim. "There was an incident in the lower heavens where many members of the Gu

Family, including their patriarch, were slaughtered. No, it wasn't just the Gu Family. The other Legacy

Families, as well as the Ji Family, were also involved. You wouldn't happen to know anything about that,

would you?"

After a moment of silence, Yuan responded, "You just brought back some unpleasant memories, but to

answer your question... Yes, I happen to know a thing or two about it. After all, I was also there when it

happened."

Gu Ruyan's expression darkened further as he asked in a cold voice, "I never asked for your name... but if

I had to guess, it wouldn't happen to be Yuan, would it?"

"Wow, that's amazing. How did you guess? Are you a fortune teller, by any chance?"

"I'LL KILL YOU, YOU BASTARD!"

Without another word, Gu Ruyan drew his sword and lunged at Yuan, his entire cultivation base surging

forth.

Yuan drew Number One Under Heaven to block the incoming strike. The moment their swords collided, a

powerful ripple spread through the area-yet it barely disturbed the raging snowstorm.

"According to the information we received, you're one of those outsiders who entered the Nine Heavens

with the Celestial Emperor's help! It hasn't even been a century since then! How in the world did you

reach the Eighth Heaven so quickly?!" Gu Ruyan demanded, unable to believe a Player could advance to

their realm in such a short time. (More chapters in Buyers club for TMT)
