Hence, the old man examined the pill and let them all take a closer look. In the end, both parties exchanged the items. It could be seen that the Old Patriarch Guo breathed a sigh of relief secretly when he put away the dicinal pills.
Old Patriarch Guo and Guo Xinning were invited out of the wing-room first. They avoided the eyes of everyone and left quickly from the back door.
Feng Jiu also left after she had paid the transaction commission. She ca to a place where no one was in sight, then she quickly dodged into space and took off her mask. She then changed into azure clothes and walked out of an alley.
She didn’t go back to the Xie Manor imdiately, but went to the main streets and looked for a food stall, where she sat down to eat.
On another street, the Grandfather and Grandson walked slowly as if they were taking a stroll. When Guo Xinning saw that his Grandfather’s expression was relaxed, with a smile on his face, as if he was in a good mood, he asked: “Grandfather, do you find that the Ghost Doctor in red earlier looked like Feng Jiu?”
Old Patriarch Guo paused for a mont, then he continued walking. With a hint of contemplation in his aged voice, he said: “They do seem quite alike, but the person earlier is an alchemist, moreover, he is also an alchemist of a very high level. Feng Jiu’s strength is not weak, so how can he be an alchemist?”
He walked slowly, his eyes looked straight ahead, and he said: “Their voices sound like each other, but their temperants seem different, so I don’t think they are the sa person. I’m thinking maybe he could be soone related to Feng Jiu, maybe from his clan?”
Upon hearing this, Guo Xinning’s eyes flashed slightly, but he didn’t speak again. Yes! His strength was already so powerful, so how could he still be an alchemist? If that was the case, it would be heaven-defying!
The Grandfather and Grandson were walking when they passed a street and saw Feng Jiu sitting at the food stall around the corner eating. When they saw her, they were a little surprised.
“Grandfather, it’s Feng Jiu.” Guo Xinning said as he looked at the azure figure at the food stall.
“Haha, what a coincidence it is to et you here.” As Old Patriarch Guo spoke, he stroked his beard and walked forward: “Young Master Feng, I didn’t expect to et you here!”
Upon hearing the voice, Feng Jiu turned around and saw them, and nodded: “I ca out for a walk and got sothing to eat. Do the two of you want to eat too?”
“Yes.” Old Patriarch Guo sat down, and Guo Xinning sat next to him. But to their surprise, Feng Jiu stood up as soon as they sat down.
......
“Take your ti to eat! I have to go back first.” She said with a smile. After she paid the bill, she ordered so snacks for him then said: “The food at this stall is very good, try it.”
When he saw Feng Jiu turn and leave, Old Patriarch Guo shook his head and laughed: “Is this him not willing to get close to us? I didn’t expect to be disliked by soone one day.”
Guo Xinning didn’t speak, but picked up the chopsticks and handed them to his Grandfather: “Grandfather, have a taste.”
So, after the both of them had finished eating, the two of them returned to the courtyard and thought of a suitable ti to pay a visit to the Xie Family.
Feng Jiu, who returned to the Xie Manor, studied the map carefully, then wrote down the route and marked down what the old man had said. It wasn’t until noon when Xie Yutang slamd on her door.
“Little Jiu! Little Jiu!”
The door opened, and she looked at him standing outside the room and she asked: “What’s the matter?”
“The Ruan Family said they want to bring us gifts and apologise to us. My Mother asked to ask you if you want to go.”
