Just as everyone had set their eyes on Hundred Herb Hall, the Gu family was no exception. At this moment in the Gu family hall, Second Master Gu looked at General Gu who was sitting fastidious in his seat and said, “Father, even though this Beauty Rejuvenation Pill is not important to a cultivator, a lot of people have now set their mind on it, including the Plum Sect.”

　　“Yesterday, the Elder of Plum Sect looked for me when she heard that Gu Ruoyun was working at Hundred Herb Hall and wanted us to help make some inquiries. In return, they will gift us a low-grade spirit stone.”

　　In the mainland, there were several grades of spirit stone – low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade.

　　These spirit stones’ vein of ore has basically been split apart among a few powerful organizations and they were used to train their disciples. One must know that the spiritual energy contained in a low-grade spirit stone could instantly upgrade a Martial Warrior from low-level to mid-level. Thus, only those few organizations could produce talents in large numbers.

　　The Plum Sect only has a few dozen of these low-grade spirit stones. Now that they were unexpectedly willing to offer it for a condition, one could see the effort of this capital…

　　“The Plum Sect?” General Gu fell silent, then said, “Even though the Plum Sect is not as strong as the Weapon Refining Sect, but their abilities are not weak either, especially since the Elder Disciples of the Plum Sect are all women. However, I heard that the Head of Plum Sect is ugly beyond compare. No wonder she wants to get the Beauty Rejuvenation Pill and has put in such capital. Sadly, Gu Ruoyun no longer recognizes the Gu family anymore, how can I obtain the information that she wants?”

　　Second Master Gu’s eyes sank before he smiled and said, “Father, Yun’er is still young, it’s not unusual for her to be a little headstrong. Furthermore, her anger should have almost faded by now. If you make a trip over there personally, would she want to see her grandfather exhaust himself? Besides, Yun’er has always put her family first, we can use the Gu Tian and his wife to influence her. I’m sure she will understand our efforts.”

　　“Okay!”

　　General Gu slapped the table, stood up and said, “Then today I will make the trip over personally. She would not want to shame her own grandfather, right?”

　　After all, that low-grade spirit stone was too tempting for him, so much that he could not resist. Now, he could only put aside his dignity once again to beg her…

　　At this moment, inside the Hundred Herb Hall, Gu Ruoyun was discussing important matters regarding the auction with Elder Yu when suddenly, a message was passed on from outside.

　　“Elder Yu, there are people from the Gu family here requesting to meet.”

　　“The Gu family?” Elder Yu frowned before replying impatiently, “I’ve already ordered that we will not meet anyone from the Gu family! They’re definitely not here for anything good if they’re here at such a time.”

　　“But, General Gu said that he has something important and needs to see Lady Gu Ruoyun. He says it concerns Gu Tian and his wife…”

　　Instantly, Gu Ruoyun eyes narrowed and a sense of coolness flashed across her face before she sneered, “Let him in, I would quite like to see what he has come up with this time.”

　　One must know that in her heart, her parents were of great importance to her. She would not permit anyone to gossip about them. But very obviously, General Gu had pulled the tiger’s tail and has thoroughly angered Gu Ruoyun.

　　“Sigh,” Elder Yu shook his head helplessly and laughed bitterly, “I really don’t know if these people from the Gu family have brains or not, trying to stretch connections with you at such a moment. In fact, they have now dragged Gu Tian and his wife into the mess, which they should never have. Lady, what do you plan to do this time?”

　　Gu Ruoyun smiled and revealed a sinister coldness.

　　“I will give them hope then make them feel utterly hopeless!”
