Stunning Ghost Doctor

Chapter 71's

When the news of the three Warrior Masters had been brutally killed, it shocked all the cultivators and even alerted the Pavilion Guards.

Only the Guardians of the Pavilion were only in charge of maintaining the law and order of the city for commoners. For matters regarding the cultivation world, they had no means to intervene, even more so for the three cultivators who were at the Warrior Master level.

The only thing they could do was identify the bodies and inform their families of their deaths.

However, the news had spread like a fast fire. After all, the deaths of the three Warrior Masters in the city was no small matter.

As for this matter, Feng Jiu did not care about it and as soon as he returned to his courtyard, he entered his own space and started cultivating.

The black market mercenaries had pulled the task of hunting him down so the next few days were very peaceful, and both of them were able to concentrate on cultivating. A few days later, Guan Xi Lin entered unhappily after he returned from the market after buying some food back.

“Brother?” Feng Jiu felt that something was amiss when he saw her sad expression. After calling out to him, he still had no answer.

“Brother?” He called her again and she finally came to her senses.

“Oh, Little Jiu, you called me?” Only after a while after sorting through her feelings did she smile weakly at him, but what she did not know was that this smile looked extremely forced.

“What happened to you? Did something happen?” He walked towards her and asked with great concern.

Guan Xi Lin quietly lowered his head, holding back his thoughts.

“It's something you don't want to tell me? Then it's okay, I won't ask any further.”

Hearing this, he hurriedly looked up in bewilderment and quickly interrupted, “No, that's not Little Jiu! It's just.. it's just..”.

Having known him all this time, he never asked him about his past, nor about his family. Similarly, he's not about hers. This was the first time she had heard him mention her family.

“Do you want to come back and attend the wedding?”

Her hand gently touched her waist where her wound was healing and she had a sad look as she spoke with nostalgia. Little Jiu, do you know? From the age of six, I was raised by my uncle and cultivated with my cousin ever since. Even though we didn't have the same parents, I always respected him and always considered him my own brother. I never thought that he would be the culprit who suddenly stabbed me in the back.

“If not for the grace of your life's safety, I think I'm dead. I always wanted to understand why he wanted to kill me, but once I heard the news, I knew it was because of him.”

“Dia?” Feng Jiu was stunned.

“Well, the woman he was going to marry was the third Young Miss of the He family, He Xin Ya. She was the fiancee that Dad had set up for me.

Hearing this, Feng Jiu looked at him dumbfounded. Whatisthis? He was actually stabbed in the back by his cousin who also robbed his fiancee? She gave him a look of sympathy, This older brother really has a sad past.

Seeing her sad and sad expression, she asked curiously, “Brother, do you like that woman?”

Guan Xi Lin shook his head, “My feelings for her are not that strong, just knowing that she will be my woman since young and hearing that she will marry someone else now, just knowing that she will be my woman from a young age, moreover, that person is my cousin, leaving behind a bitter taste. I feel very aggrieved.”

“Ha ha ha!”

He could not help but laugh out loud. When he saw her helpless and embarrassed expression, he quickly held back his laughter. “Alright, alright, I won't laugh, won't laugh.” But that did not stop him from smiling.
