Chapter 1648: The Name and Surname Are the Same

"Miss." It was a long time after Ruan Yu left that the oppressive aura, as heavy as Mount Tai, gradually dissipated. The guards scrambled to their feet and went to help Gongsun Yihua.

"Get out of my way!" Gongsun Yihua roared in fury, completely disregarding the virtuous woman persona she had carefully cultivated for years: "A bunch of useless trash! So many of you can't even defeat one!"

It made her lose face completely!

"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!" Gongsun Yihua spat as she wiped her mouth, utterly disgusted by the phlegm.

However, she had been lying on the ground for too long, and simple wiping was not enough to remove the substance.

Aaaaaaahhhhhh!! Gongsun Yihua is going crazy! She really doesn't want to live anymore; she feels like she stinks!

"You damned wretch, I'll kill you! Find out who he is!"

With a woman wearing a veil and whose hands were bound by ropes by his side, he was such an obvious distinguishing feature that he could be found in no time, as long as he hadn't gone far!

After Gongsun Yihua left, the guests in the Soul Beast Pavilion dared to speak up: "Was that ferocious-looking young lady really from the Gongsun family?"

"Rumor has it that the daughters of the Gongsun family are the most gentle and charming, but how come she..."

Even the gentlest person would get angry in this situation, right?

"But the way she gets angry is just terrifying..."

The news of Gongsun Yihua quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys.

The secret guards she sent out never returned.

"Miss, what should we do next?" Now, Gongsun Yihua only has one bodyguard left by her side.

"What else can we do? Of course, we have to keep searching!" Meng Fan was the man in the Soul Beast Pavilion who was going against Ruan Yu.

He said to the guards in a condescending tone, "I really don't understand how the Gongsun family could raise such useless people like you! The others haven't returned yet, go find them!"

"Meng Fan," Gongsun Yihua said with a headache, "it's not your place to lecture the Gongsun family's secret guards."

Furthermore, is Meng Fan brainless? The secret guards he sent out neither returned nor brought back a message, so there's only one possibility—they're dead.

What are we waiting for if we don't run now? Are we just walking into a trap to die?

That's incredibly stupid!

I don't know why my grandmother insisted that she associate with Meng Fan!

"Yihua." Meng Fan liked Gongsun Yihua, and being spoken to like that by the person he liked made him feel wronged. "Wasn't I just teaching these good-for-nothings a lesson for you?"

Gongsun Yihua remained silent.

The secret guards are a bit useless, but are you, Meng Fan, any better?

"Let's go back to Qingyong City. We can't stay outside any longer."

God knows if that man will come after me to kill me.

"Ok."

Meng Fan hadn't taken his revenge yet, so he definitely didn't want to go back. But he had come out this time because he had a falling out with his family, and he hadn't brought any of his bodyguards with him, so he had no choice but to give up.

"I thought the Gongsun family was so wealthy. The soul stones they plundered from the spatial rings of a few secret guards didn't even amount to more than ten thousand high-grade soul stones." On the other side, Ruan Yu was counting the spoils of war.

The clone reached out: "Give me some, everyone gets a share."

“…Really a dog.” Ruan Yu paused for a moment, then handed two spatial rings to her clone. Inside were quite a few soul stones, as well as some magical artifacts and talismans.

"I learned it from you." The clone happily put the spatial ring on its hand and held it up to compare with its fingers: "I have to say, my fingers are so long and slender, they're really beautiful."

Upon hearing this, Ruan Yu looked as if she had seen a ghost.

"I'm not that narcissistic, am I?" Why would the clone say that?

She found it unbelievable.

The clone said calmly, "Yes, it's just that you're unwilling to admit it."

"……impossible."

"It's true, the clone and the original are very similar. My current words and actions are all copied from you."

Ruan Yu rolled her eyes.

"Speaking of which, Gongsun Yihua should have escaped, right? We left marks along the way, so if we wanted to find her, we would have arrived long ago." The clone smiled and changed the subject.

Ruan Yu was quite disappointed: "Fine, they've already run away."

The fact that the bodyguards are poor doesn't mean Gongsun Yihua is poor! Every piece of clothing Gongsun Yihua wears is a divine artifact; she's obviously rolling in money.

If it weren't for the concern about leaving witnesses in the bustling city, Ruan Yu would have taken action right there in the street.

"We've got the Bluebird, let's head to the Dark Pavilion first." Business is more important.

Ruan Yu summoned the Bluebird from her spatial storage and rode on it with her clone. If she hadn't witnessed the power of the Circulating Bird, Ruan Yu might have truly marveled at the Bluebird's speed.

pity.

About two days later, Ruan Yu finally arrived in Qingyong City.

Previously, she had teleported away, appearing in another city in the blink of an eye. Now, riding a flying spirit beast and exiting through the back gate, Ruan Yu unexpectedly discovered a mountain forest behind Qingyong City.

"Master, it's the aura of a great treasure!" Just as Ruan Yu was about to fly into Qingyong City, Tu Sang suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "It's in that forest outside!"

Despite the array separating them, Rabbit Sang still managed to detect the aura of the treasure.

Ruan Yu raised an eyebrow; she knew what the treasure Tu Sang was referring to: "Ding Hao?"

"Yes, it has the same aura of a precious treasure on him!"

Ruan Yu understood.

It's likely that Ding Hao picked up a trace of the treasure's aura while passing by.

"We'll come back to investigate tonight." Ruan Yu noticed with her sharp eyes that there were quite a few Qingyong soldiers guarding the outside of the Beast Forest's barrier.

So they decided to wait until the night was dark and the wind was high before making their move.

"What a small world." The clone tugged at Ruan Yu's sleeve and raised his chin.

Following the direction her chin was pointing, Ruan Yu saw Gongsun Yihua, Meng Fan, and a bodyguard.

The three of them walked along, looking miserable, without saying a word.

suddenly!

When Meng Fan saw Ruan Yu, he immediately grabbed Gongsun Yihua's sleeve, pointed at Ruan Yu, and tried to speak, but he was too excited to make a sound.

"..." Ruan Yu's lips twitched. She hadn't expected to run into this.

The clone chuckled to itself, "She's heading in our direction."

Ruan Yu: "I'm not blind."

The other person was fuming; it was obvious they were coming for me. Ugh, couldn't they have waited until we were inside the city? Fighting outside the city offers no cover; it'll be easy to get noticed!

"If only you had listened to me earlier and bought the Bluebird in Qingyong City, it would have been much better. Why did you have to go all the way to another city to buy it?"

"The Dark Pavilion is located in Qingyong City. If I buy it in Qingyong City, wouldn't that be blatantly telling others that I'm a fake Dark Fifteen?"

"As long as we don't get discovered, that's fine." The clone shrugged.

"It's hard to guard against a hidden arrow." Ruan Yu had never met the other members of the Dark Pavilion before. Who knew if she would run into them when buying the Bluebird?

Gongsun Yihua was truly blinded by anger and rushed to Ruan Yu's feet without any regard for anything else.

As he got closer, he calmed down a bit, and the words of revenge that were on the tip of his tongue turned into: "Dare you tell me your name?"

What is there that Ruan Yu wouldn't dare to do?

"I dare! I will never change my name or surname, I am Ding Hao!"
