Both the eyes of the grandfather and the grandson of the Gu family lit up in delight. The capability of the Heavenly Thunder Faction was almost on par with the Gentle Breeze Faction, especially the master of the Heavenly Thunder Faction. Rumor has it that the master was approaching a breakthrough to become a mid-level Martial King. This had attracted some serious attention.
“The Heavenly Thunder Faction?”
Wei Yiyi who was on her seat arched her brow, “Even the people from the Heavenly Thunder Faction are here?”
“Do you know them?” Gu Ruoyun turned to Wei Yiyi and asked.
Wei Yiyi shrugged her shoulders, “Just the other day, the master of the Heavenly Thunder Faction sought me out to help treat his injuries, so I guess that counts. Also, a year ago, when I left to run an errand, I passed by the Heavenly Thunder Faction. When the master of the Heavenly Thunder Faction had found out about it, I was invited as a guest. However, I had refused. I did not think that I would meet with Elder Lei of the Heavenly Thunder Faction here.”
As she was saying this, Gu Xianglin and an older person who was clad in purple robes chatted and laughed as they entered. However, just as Elder Lei stepped into the banquet hall, he felt a gaze trained upon him, which made him turn to look back at it.
With just one look, he froze as a streak of astonishment flashed through the depths of his eyes.
A year ago, when they heard that the Ghost Doctor would pass by the Heavenly Thunder Faction, it was Elder Lei and his company who had personally invited her. However, the Ghost Doctor had been relatively busy so she had turned them down. He had not expected that after a year, he would meet her here.
Originally, Elder Lei did not really look up to the Gu household. It was just a common household in the secular world. What had they done to deserve to be of importance to him? But he could not disregard the Gentle Breeze Faction’s reputation which was why he had come to attend the banquet at the Gu household.
If the Gu household could even invite the Ghost Doctor, then he should view them in a whole new perspective…
“General Gu, how did you manage to invite this lady?”
Actually, what Elder Lei had meant was, what method had they used to invite the Ghost Doctor here. Not to mention the fact that they were the Heavenly Thunder Faction, even the
Weapon Refining Sect did not garner that kind of respect.
After all, even though the Ghost Doctor was not the best when it came to capabilities, she was still the one who could snatch back lives from the King of Hell! In this land, who would not have an emergency illness? To offend her was like offending the King of Hell himself…
However, it was obvious that General Gu had misunderstood his meaning. He thought that Elder Lei was berating him on how this kind of woman could be invited to such a dignified occasion. He hurriedly opened his mouth and explained.
“You mean her? She is a disciple of my granddaughter, however…”
Initially, the old man had wanted to tell about Gu Ruoyun has been evicted out of the Gu household. That way, Elder Lei would not be dissatisfied with this prostitute-like woman defiling this banquet. But he couldn’t even finish with his explanation before Elder Lei started to walk towards Wei Yiyi.
“Haha, Ghost Doctor, what a coincidence to actually meet you here.”
The Elder’s words caused Wei Yiyi and Gu Ruoyun’s conversation to pause as Wei Yiyi turned to Elder Lei and coolly nodded, “It is quite a coincidence.”
“This lady is…”
Elder Lei’s smile was full of flattery before his gaze then swept towards Gu Ruoyun. Did General Gu say that his granddaughter was the Ghost Doctor’s master? If that was so, this lady’s medical skills should be better than Wei Yiyi’s? How good was she? If Wei Yiyi could snatch back lives from the hands of the King of Hell, would she not happen to be able to restore youth as well?
“This is my Master.”
Wei Yiyi pinched her lips together as she smiled and answered.
He knew it!
Elder Lei painfully gasped for breath. Just how strong would this lady in order to have the Ghost Doctor submit to her so willingly?
Ever since the people of the Heavenly Thunder Faction entered the Gu household’s compound, everyone’s gaze had been focused on them. When they saw the exchange between Elder Lei and Wei Yiyi and how the Elder addressed Wei Yiyi as the Ghost Doctor, they suddenly felt a thunder rolling past and were almost scared to death!
