A clear and cold light flashed in Gu Ruoyun's eyes but her lucid and elegant features remained as indifferent as ever.
"In my opinion, joining any organization would cause me to be restricted! Hence, I will never agree to your request."
Besides, it was not worth giving up her freedom to devote her service to one mere Wind Valley alone.
"Since that's the case, Lady Gu, I hope that you won't forget your decision today."
Elder Bai's eyes sank and his voice no longer held its initial amiable tone. Instead, it was now tinged with a chilly air.
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave now."
Gu Ruoyun glanced at Elder Bai as she spoke in an indifferent tone.
"Please."
Elder Bai scoffed before closing his eyes and did not say anything more. Gu Ruoyun did not delay anymore either as she immediately turned around and headed out of the guest house room. She had not bothered to turn back and look at Elder Bai the entire time.
