Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor - Chapter 2698
Chapter 2698: Favour
Feng Jiu glanced at Old Patriarch Guo. After hearing his words did she know why Old Patriarch Li had come to deal with this matter. He had apologised as soon as he came, and it was because of him.
When she realised this, she nodded: “Fine! Since Old Patriarch Guo asked, then I’ll forget about it.”
Upon hearing this, Old Patriarch Li breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to thank him: “Thank you Young Master Feng, and thank you too, Old Man Guo.” He smiled and nodded to Old Patriarch Guo.
“Your eldest son is out of line, if you were to stay in seclusion for a few more years, your Li Family will probably be ruined by him.” Old Patriarch Guo shook his head and said.
“Alas, it’s the family’s misfortune.” Old Patriarch Li sighed and said to the two of them who were kneeling on the ground: “Go back and pack your things!”
Only then did the father and son stand up and follow the others and leave first. Those that remained were the Elders and the middle aged man, who were standing behind the old man.
“Old Man Li, I am going on a trip and won’t be home in the following days. I will catch up with you when I return!” Old Patriarch Guo said, then he said to Feng Jiu: “Young Master Feng, we can proceed on our journey.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu responded and glanced at the Xie siblings. The two of them walked quickly to her side, and Guo Xinning who was behind, followed as well, as well as several cultivators who were accompanying them on their trip.
Old Patriarch Guo raised his hand in the air and an airship appeared in midair. He gestured to Feng Jiu, and saw her stretch out her hand to the side. The little silver wolf who had been squatting by her feet jumped up into her arms. She then raised herself on her toes and leaped lightly into the airship.
The Xie siblings also got onto the airship one after another. Old Patriarch Guo was at the back, and he looked at Old Patriarch Li and smiled, the words he said next were unexpected.
…
“So? I didn’t deceive you, did I?”
Old Patriarch Li clasped his hands together: “My Li Family will remember this favour forever. When you return, I will invite you over for a drink.”
“Hahahaha!” Old Patriarch Guo laughed and patted his shoulder before he jumped on the airship and left.
After Old Patriarch Li exchanged some words with Patriarch Guo, he also left with the few people behind him and went home. After they left, a middle aged man who had been standing behind the Patriarch asked with some doubts: “Patriarch, what did Old Patriarch’s words mean?”
Patriarch Guo smiled, he walked back and said: “It can be said that Father has helped the Li Family avert a catastrophe.”
“Where would the catastrophe come from? Could it be because of Young Master Feng?” That person was confused. No matter how powerful Young Master Feng was, would a century old family really be afraid of him?
“At that time, Feng Jiu had murderous intentions. If Old Patriarch Li had come a bit later, he would have probably seen Patriarch Li’s corpse instead. If Patriarch Li dies, the Li Family won’t give up. But if they fight against Feng Jiu, even if the Li Family doesn’t get wiped out, the foundation of their century old status will still be shaken.”
Patriarch Guo smiled and continued: “So, my Father’s move can be said to have helped the Li Family avoid a catastrophe. If it weren’t for my Father informing Old Patriarch Li on the account of their friendship, I think that no one would have told him the news.”
The man next to him was startled: “What news?” Why was he becoming more confused as he listened?
Patriarch Guo paused and glanced sideways at him: “It seems that you’re still lacking practice, tell you what! Tomorrow, you will pack up your things and go to one of the Guo Properties to be a steward.”
As soon as he had spoken, he stepped inside and left the middle aged man standing there…
