A cold light flashed in Gu Ruoyun's eyes at the thought of this.

She would have remained indifferent if Bai Yin had been impersonating someone else. However, she would not allow anyone to undermine Red Lotus Territory's good name! Hence, Bai Yin has put herself against the muzzle of a gun this time.

"I don't fully understand the details in this situation either." Old Man Jiang shook his head. "All I know is that this emissary Bai Yin had made an appearance not too long ago. She even had Grand Lord Hong Lian's token in her hand which verified her status even further. This emissary Bai Yin had previously sought out the Great Families and tried to make us swear fealty to her. Out of the four families, three of us had rejected her so she entered the only one which had not — the Lan family."

Old Man Jiang sighed.

This Bai Yin is much too proud and conceited. If she wasn't a member of the Red Lotus Territory, no one would have even bothered to listen to her.

"The Grand Lord's token?" Gu Ruoyun laughed icily. "Old Man Jiang, you are too naive. Have any of you ever seen an actual token from the Red Lotus Territory? Don't you know that tokens can be faked?"

Based on her knowledge, only two real tokens exist in the Red Lotus Territory.

One of the tokens was with the Grand Lord while the other was a gift to her from the Grand Lord, given to her before his departure. Therefore, one need not think too far to know that the token which Bai Yin was using to represent Grand Lord Hong Lian was a fake!

Old Man Jiang was shocked. He then asked sluggishly, "Still, there shouldn't be anyone who would dare impersonate an emissary from the Red Lotus Territory. After all, Grand Lord Hong Lian has already reached the Martial Saint rank. Wouldn't it be digging your own grave to impersonate his subordinate?"

Gu Ruoyun smiled gently but did not say very much. Her clear and cold gaze then turned to look at Bai Yin as an almost undetectable murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

"Fake?" Bai Yin had overheard Gu Ruoyun's accusation. There was a contemptuous smile on her cold and distant features as she rebuked, "You dare accuse me of being a fake? Who was the person who had relied on her resemblance to the Madam and tried to impersonate her to seduce the Grand Lord? I, Bai Yin, as an emissary of the Red Lotus Territory, am authentic. As for this woman, she has no other ability aside from seducing men! However, Grand Lord is a noble man so you better stop thinking about him. Each time I remember how someone like you would concern herself with the Grand Lord, I would feel disgusted!"

Gu Ruoyun, you've outright refused the path granted by Heaven and had insisted upon the dead-end in Hell!

So what if you're a Pill Master? Since you've arrived in the Northern Block Territory, I won't let you walk out alive!

Bai Yin would gnash her teeth hatefully each time she remembered those rumors.

A woman like her knows nothing more than to entice men... What abilities could she possibly have to refine a pill successfully? She had only been lucky! If I, Bai Yin, had pill formulas and pill refinement scrolls, I would definitely have been able to refine pills as well.

So, she's not all that great anyways.

"Gu Nianye."

Lan Shao's face had sunk when he heard Bai Yin's furious retort. "On account of Old Man Jiang and Old Man Gu's presence, I don't wish to be calculative with you," he spoke in a malicious voice. "Let me leave you with some advice, the Red Lotus Territory has great power. As Grand Lord Hong Lian's emissary, Bai Yin is not someone that you should underestimate! Old Man Jiang, since she's your friend, you should educate her as well. What if Miss Bai Yin were angered and caused the cultivators from Red Lotus Territory to be immediately dispatched to the Northern Block Territory? If that happens, it would be a punishment that we can't pay!"

If Lan Shao had intended to entice Gu Ruoyun in the beginning, he no longer had any intentions of the sort now.
