Chapter 228 Six Path City (1/2)
”Young Miss is not only adorable but kind and magnanimous enough to not hold a grudge against my steed and my humble self thank you for it.”
She clasped a hand over a fist and bowed, and saw the young lady's dainty countenance turn red as an apple. The smile in her eyes then deepened, one hand holding Old White's reins as she said: ”With this, allow my humble self to take my leave.”
”Oh, alright. Stay safe Young Master.” The young lady said, having been hopelessly captivated by those few sentences and that electrifying gaze from Feng Jiu, an answer purely having been lead by Feng Jiu's words.
Seeing the red clothed youth apologising trying to amends, the man beside them felt there wasn't anything more for him to say. Afterall, his cousin had not said anything more about it, much less for him. If he were to continue to find trouble with the youth, then it would seem like he was just picking on him.
Until Feng Jiu swung herself up upon her horse and she had rode Old White slowly tread their way out past the city gates when the young lady finally regained her senses and said: ”Ah! I forgot to ask the Young Master for his name!”
Seeing his cousin face filled with so much regret, the man's face darkened and with a flick of his sleeves, he said: ”Let's go back!”
— Two Days Later —
Feng Jiu led Old White to enter through the Six Path City and once past the city gates, she saw the flouris.h.i.+ng and bustling scene where her heart could not help but sigh as she thought: [As expected of a sixth grade country. From the architecture to the shops and such, they were all things that the Sun Glory Country were unable to compare with.
”You heard? The Ghost Doctor who has recently risen in fame had come to out Six Path City and it was said that it was the City Lord who received him personally.”
That couldn't be possible right? I heard that an accident occurred during the Medicine Grading Big Meet and the Ghost Doctor was abducted by people from the h.e.l.l's Palace.”
”It was heard that he had been released quite a while ago. Or otherwise, why had all those medicines appeared in various parts of the land recently? There hasn't been that much medicines appearing at the auctions but every bottle that did was a most precious treasure among treasures. It was said that the Six Path City's City Lord was fortunate enough to successfully win the bid for a bottle of the Ghost Doctor's medicine and after taking the medicine, the City Lord had broken through to the bottleneck that he had not been able to breakthrough all this time! The matter had spread throughout the upper cla.s.s family clans and I had only come to know of it after I heard about it from my cousin who works at the City Lord's residence.
”Is it true or not? It's that good?”
