"Sorry, I didn't mean for this to happen." Gu Ruoyun rubbed her nose. She then turned to the dazed soldier and asked, "Do you need me to pay for it?"
The soldier quickly shook his head and gulped in shock as if he still had not regained his senses from the sudden turn of events.
"Can I go in then?"
Gu Ruoyun looked at the soldier and asked.
The soldier quickly nodded and did not say a single word.
Upon noticing this action, Gu Ruoyun said nothing more and walked through the doors of Holy City.
"Lord soldier, perhaps your stone tablet has fallen into disrepair over the years? That's why it's no longer useful."
Fallen into disrepair over the years?
When he heard the citizens next to him who were kindly trying to call him back to attention, the soldier immediately regained his senses. He cleared his throat and spoke in a stern manner, "That's right, you're correct. This stone tablet has indeed fallen into disrepair which was why it had been destroyed so easily. Since it had been destroyed by this lady's hand, we have no reason to stop her from entering Holy City. Otherwise, the Ye family would be seen as people who do not keep their word."
How could a stone tablet created from a Golden Light Stone have fallen into disrepair?
Besides, this stone had been retrieved by the previous Master from the ancient ruins. It's not only able to measure someone's strength but the height of a person's talent as well!
For example, a ten-year-old Martial General could easily leave his fist mark on the stone tablet but a sixty-year-old Martial King may not necessarily cause a dent.
This talent!
The more talented the cultivator, the greater the damage.
She was able to smash the stone tablet into pieces. That proves that this girl's talent far surpasses that of everyone else, even the Little Master!
Of course, aside from the Master and a few elders in the family, only the guards at the city gates would understand these matters! In order to direct attention away from the young lady, he had responded in that manner. Now, he must report this to the lords of the Ye family as soon as possible.
If a talented woman like her could be accepted into the Ye family, they would certainly rise in power.
The young soldier no longer cared about guarding the city and quickly sped towards the Ye family home to give his report.
...
In the Ye family home, Ye Xingtian, who was listening to his subordinate's report in the living room, immediately rose to his feet and exclaimed in astonishment, "What did you just say? The stone tablet in front of the city gate has been destroyed?"
"Yes, Eldest Young Master. It was a young woman who had destroyed the stone tablet. She has already entered Holy City."
Ye Xingtian's face was filled with disbelief. He slowly slumped back into his seat and paused for a long while before he finally spoke, "My father must be informed of a matter as great as this. Summon Ye Xinglin after this and ask him to come with me to go see Father."
"Your wish is my command, Eldest Young Master."
The young soldier then took his leave.
Ye Xingtian no longer had time to think. He quickly rushed out the door and headed towards the rear courtyard in speedy steps.
By the time he arrived at his father's room, Ye Xinglin had just arrived as well. He glanced at his flustered oldest brother and asked puzzledly, "Eldest brother, why have you asked me to meet with Father in such a rush?"
"I'll explain when we see Father."
Ye Xingtian took a deep breath and replied steadily.
The two then hurriedly walked into Ye Lan's usual room for closed-door cultivation without another word.
At this moment, Ye Lan was seated cross-legged with his eyes closed as a faint and warm golden light surrounded his body. His elderly face gave off a holy and sacred feeling under the glow of the light.
Suddenly, his face turned red and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His body then toppled backwards onto the floor.
