Chapter 1210 - Return To Green Gallop (1/2)
The family heads of various influential families in the city had received news of Feng Jiu’s attack at the inn and were extremely surprised. Someone had dared to attack the Ghost Doctor here? Who was so bold?
After their shock at what had happened, they arrived at the inn, planning to pay a visit. However, when they got there, they saw that the Black Market Chief was already at the inn. The Country Ruler had also sent several men to pay a visit. They were all quicker than them, hence, they had decided to leave.
Because of this incident, the Country Ruler had cleared out the inn and only Feng Jiu and her servant were left in the inn. The owner of the inn hadn’t dared oppose it. After all, the incident with the Ghost Doctor had happened at his inn, he had to bear some responsibility.
After the inn had been cleared out, there were no more idle people hanging around and anyone entering the inn had to be subjected to a check. Fortunately, they had some status in the city and after the guard had reported their arrival, they were let into the inn.
“Ghost Doctor, we heard that you were attacked today and we have rushed over to visit you. Are you okay? Who was so bold to a.s.sa.s.sinate you, the Ghost Doctor?”
“You are all very kind. I am fine.” Feng Jiu smiled and gestured for them to sit down then ordered the staff to bring some tea.
“It’s good that you are okay.” They nodded and smiled as they sat down.
They had finally found an opportunity to speak to her. Although they knew that it was probably not possible to obtain an elixir from her, at least they were able to have a chat with her and get to know her.
The few of them and the Black Market Chief had a meal and drank some wine at the inn together and didn’t leave until evening.
Feng Jiu had also returned to her and rested. At dawn the next day, she had left quietly, and the people that had turned up to send her off had turned up in vain.
Since his Master had nearly come to harm yesterday, Bi Shan had been blaming himself. Though he had been roaming the outside world for many years, he had not expected someone to use an old woman and a child to a.s.sa.s.sinate someone. That was something he had not predicted.
He couldn’t imagine what would have happened if his Master had not reacted so quickly and avoided the attack.
