Murong Qian widened her beautiful eyes in shock, unsure of what Gu Ruoyun was about to do. Her eyes filled with terror.

Then...

Crack!

Gu Ruoyun grabbed Murong Qian's arm and twisted it forcefully. The crowd heard a clear noise. Gradually, Murong Qian's screams 1 , like a pig being slaughtered, could be heard.

Murong Qian's face turned pale with agony and her entire body was drenched in sweat as she stared in terror at the green-robed woman before her.

"Gu Ruoyun, if you dare to hurt the other contestant again, the Secret Order won't treat you with any courtesy!" The Left Emissary was so enraged that his face turned ashen. He had never seen such an audacious woman like Gu Ruoyun in his entire life. She had actually dared to hurt a contestant in front of him!

Gu Ruoyun did not raise her head as she replied coldly, "I told you, I only want to prove my innocence. If the Secret Order wants to stop me, that proves that the dignified Secret Order has actually joined forces with the Murong family and tried to frame the champion after losing first place!"

If this were under normal circumstances, the Left Emissary would not have been so hasty. However, now that he had become muddled with rage by Gu Ruoyun, he scoffed coldly and said, "I'd like to see how you plan on proving yourself!"

Crack!

Gu Ruoyun stepped on Murong Qian's chest. Everyone could hear the sound of her bones cracking. Murong Qian spat out another mouthful of blood and glared venomously at the woman before her.

After witnessing this scene, the Left Emissary was so infuriated that a vein throbbed on his forehead. He continued to stare coldly at Gu Ruoyun.

However, since he had made an agreement in advance, he could not stop her.

Then again, if this woman could not prove her innocence, he would make her regret her actions today!

The Left Emissary took a deep breath at the thought of this and his eyes filled with a cold light. Even the people next to him could sense his anger.

Stomp!

Stomp, stomp, stomp!

Gu Ruoyun stomped fiercely on Murong Qian's chest. Each blow was heavier than the last as if there was no possibility of stopping. At this moment, Murong Qian felt increasingly suffocated and it was getting hard for her to breathe. She had wailed and cried out in pain at first but she was so in pain that near the end that her eyes rolled to the back of her head and she almost fainted.

"Keep hitting her, once you beat Murong Qian to death, the Murong family won't let you get away with it!"

Wen Ya curled the corners of her lips icily. She does not know what Gu Ruoyun was planning to do but her heart was secretly anticipating the possibility of that outcome.

If Gu Ruoyun really ended up bashing Murong Qian to death here, the Murong family would certainly run from a thousand kilometers away to kill her! They would never let her get away with it!

Stomp!

After the last stomp, Gu Ruoyun finally put her leg away. She then produced a pill before everyone's eyes.

The pill released a jade-green light beneath the setting sun, it was an enchanting sight.

"Is that a pill?"

Amongst the audience, some were already curling their lips as their eyes stared straight at the pill in Gu Ruoyun's hand.

"That's right, that must be a pill. If my guess is right, this must have one of the Spirit Gathering Pills which was stolen from Lady Murong. I was once fortunate enough to come across the pills in Lady Murong's possession, this is the same color as the ones she had."

"If that's true, this pill must have been sullied. Why did she use this pill to prove her innocence? Can this pill prove anything at all?"

The crowd's faces were puzzled, unsure of why Gu Ruoyun had taken the pill out at all.
