Chapter 153 The Old Patriarch Returns! (1/2)

[Isn't everyone who is supposed to attend already present? Why is there another carriage coming? Who else is there?]

While everyone else was feeling rather puzzled, their steps going inside stopped momentarily as people gazed at the highly unremarkable carriage that had stopped right in front of the gates.

Murong Yi Xuan who was about to step inside had stopped in his tracks as well when he saw the horse carriage. He not only found that the horse carriage looked rather familiar, but thought he recognised the girl in black driving it as well. [Wasn't she with that lady the last time…..]

”Little Jiu, let me help you.” Dressed in all black, Guan Xi Lin leapt out from the carriage and reached his hand out to the person coming out behind him.

The words Little Jiu caused Murong Yi Xuan's heart to skip a beat and his eyes showed a trace of surprise, his feet rooted to the ground. He stood there stunned as he simply gazed fixedly at the person coming out from the carriage.

At this time, Su Ruo Yun did not see the person stepping off from the carriage as the ruler had already gone inside and she needed to go up front in escort. Hence, she had not only failed to see that Guan Xi Lin and Feng Jiu had come, but also missed seeing the last person to come down from the carriage. Otherwise, she would surely have turned pale from terror.

”Hey! Isn't that Old Patriarch Feng there?”

When the various Family Heads saw the young man and woman helping the elderly man down from the carriage, they immediately realized that it was the old Patriarch who had gone missing from the Feng Residence!

And, seeing that sharp demeanor, he didn't look in the slightest like someone who was afflicted with the demons of lunacy! At that moment, everyone started to go forward and crowd around him.

”Old Patriarch Feng! You've finally come back!”

”Old Patriarch Feng, during this period that you were not here at the manor, General Feng had fallen ill from worry!”

”Old Patriarch Feng, just where have you been all this while?”

Everyone crowded around the old man and shot their questions at him incessantly, their voices highly tinged with concern. As everyone who came today were all only from the bigger clans and more prestigious families in the Cloudy Moon City, not a single person from the medium sized families was seen. Hence, every single one found Guan Xi Lin and Feng Lin highly unfamiliar and no one was able to recognize them.
