Master Murong, who had not completely regained his senses from his surprise at Gu Ruoyun's return, immediately went into a daze again.

She has indeed obtained numerous heavenly spirit fruits from the Tomb but Master Murong would never have thought that she would allow the disciples of the Murong family to consume those heavenly spirit fruits! After all, if it had not been for Gu Ruoyun, they would never have found the heavenly spirit fruits in the first place. Therefore, he never imagined that she would actually use the heavenly spirit fruits to benefit the disciples of the Murong Family!

Furthermore, she even has pills which can help a Martial King rise to the next level!

Master Murong blinked in suspicion as he doubted if he had correctly heard what she had just said.

Am I dreaming?

"Lady Gu, you're saying that you have a pill and heavenly spirit fruits which can help those disciples at the Martial King level to increase their ranks by two?"

"That's correct." Gu Ruoyun nodded and replied, "Do you remember what I had said to you one year ago? I want to unify all of Black Rock City!"

To unify all of Black Rock City!

Master Murong's heart thudded when he heard her sharp voice which was filled with magnificent aspiration.

A year ago, he had thought that those words were mere delusions of grandeur.

However, one year later, she has single-handedly annihilated the Wolf's Fang Robbers, a problematic organization that not even the Three Great Authorities of Black Rock City had been able to defeat even if they had joined forces!

Master Murong suddenly felt a huge wave of delight. Perhaps that day when I had made my choice to follow this woman was the best decision I've ever made in this lifetime.

"I understand, Eldest Lady. I'll go ahead and gather the Martial Kings."

He took a deep breath and his elderly face was full of resolve.

At this moment, Master Murong could already see the position of the Murong family in Black Rock City! With her at the helm, forget about unifying Black Rock City. Someday, even the entire plains will be in her bag.

"Go ahead. I'm tired so I want to return to my quarters to rest now. There's one more thing, after this, summon every organization in Black Rock City and give me the name list of those who had helped the Yeh family."

Gu Ruoyun yawned and rose from her seat. She then walked out of the hall without even looking back.

After she has left, Master Murong promptly went about to make arrangements as she had ordered.

As they now had the help of the pill and the heavenly spirit fruits, the Martial Kings of the Murong family gained another promotion in rank after breaking through to the next level. Murong Yan and Lu Shaochen both also gained two levels. Each and every Martial King in the Murong family has now reached the rank of a high-level Martial King.

As for the elders of the Murong family who were already high-level Martial Kings, one pill was not enough for them to reach the ranks of a Martial Emperor. Nevertheless, when combined with the effect from the heavenly spirit fruit, they were able to leap up into the rank of a low-level Martial Emperor!

Of course, the only thing which had caused these elders to become stuck was because they had encountered a bottleneck!

All they needed was a bit of external help and they were then able to break the bottleneck easily!

Even though these elders have already reached the ranks of a Martial Emperor, Gu Ruoyun did not allow them to consume the Emperor Breakthrough Pills as they had only just had their breakthrough. Once they have stabilized their newfound powers, they could make the leap towards the rank of a mid-level Martial Emperor.

After all, a Martial Emperor was completely different from a Martial King. Martial Kings could have two continuous breakthroughs but if a Martial Emperor were to do this, it could easily de-stabilize their foundations. Gu Ruoyun did not wish to put her subordinates through that risk.

Even so, the joy of having broken through to the rank of a Martial Emperor still remained fresh within the hearts of the elders.

One should know that, initially, they had no chance to raise themselves to the rank of a Martial Emperor. It was Gu Ruoyun who had provided them with that opportunity. Hence, everyone felt a wholehearted wave of gratitude which will endure from now on!

Furthermore, no one else but Gu Ruoyun had treated their subordinates with such generosity.
