Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor

Chapter 2678: A Name

Everyone did what they were told and helped each other leave. Only the Great Elder, Feng Jiu, and the Xie siblings stayed behind. The middle-aged man had the weeping woman brought back to the courtyard. When he looked at the three Feng Jiu and the others, the Patriarch asked, “May I know who you are?”

“Ahem, ahem!” The Great Elder coughed softly.

Seeing this, Patriarch Guo told him, “Great Elder, please return to the courtyard and rest. I’ll have someone look at your injury. We’ll talk about the rest later.”

“Alright.” The Great Elder gave a nod. “Please look after these three.”

Patriarch Guo’s thoughts were roused. “Great Elder, rest assured,” he said as he looked at Feng Jiu and the others.

The Great Elder nodded before being helped by two guards back to his courtyard.

Guo Xinning, who stood by him, said, “Father, I’ll take them to rest first.”

“Alright, you may leave now.” Patriarch Guo replied. With a smile, he faced Feng Jiu and the Xie siblings. “Please stay here for a while, rest well, and let my subordinates know if you need anything.”

“Thank you very much, Patriarch Guo.” As the three of them responded, they followed Guo Xinning out the door.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man was prompted to ask the patriarch with a slight frown. “Patriarch, why did you let these three go without knowing who they are?”

Patriarch Guo threw him a glance and replied, “The Great Elder gave the instruction to treat them with courtesy. Certainly, there is a reason.Let’s wait until Great Elder and Elder Sun have had a chance to rest before we try to figure out why.”

The middle-aged man clenched his fist and finally nodded before turning away.

Patriarch Guo sighed inwardly as he looked at him. Who would have guessed that they would lose several Guo disciples along the way? The world, however, was changeable, the great path was ruthless, and the path of immortal cultivation was difficult to follow. Who knows what tomorrow will bring?

Guo Xinning led the three of them to a courtyard. “Stay in this courtyard first. There are several rooms here, and by staying together, you can take care of each other. If there is anything else you can tell my subordinates. I will come and see you later.”

“Mm-hmm.” Feng Jiu answered and gave him a nod. Then he turned around and left.

Xie Shisi opened the door to the rooms and asked, “Little Jiu, are we going to stay here? For how long?”

Feng Jiu looked at Xie Yutang. “Ask around how far away this place is from the city where your family lives. Also, please have someone prepare water for me. I’d like to take a bath.”

“Sure.” Xie Yutang responded, told his sister, and exited the courtyard.

Because Feng Jiu had protected them throughout the journey, and he also got his contract beast with Feng Jiu’s help, in his heart, Feng Jiu’s position had long been different. He didn’t feel anything was wrong when she ordered him around, but he accepted it as normal.

“Come here, little one.” Feng Jiu sat at the stone table in the courtyard and drew the attention of the wandering silver wolf.

“Master, you still haven’t given me a name.” The silver wolf ran up to her and fawned at her.
