"Old Man Gu, do you think I'm an idiot? This girl looks like she's only seventeen or eighteen years old. In other words, she broke through from Qi Level 2 to a high-level Martial General in three to four years? "
From Qi Level 2 to a high-level Martial General in three to four years — apart from the Spirit Sect, who else could raise such a genius?
This old man was clearly playing him like a monkey!
How could he not be angry?
Old Man Gu's face stiffened: "Elder Lei, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Originally, the old man had only wanted to remind Elder Lei to take another look. He hadn't expected that this sentence would instantly cause Elder Lei to explode.
"What do you mean? Are you saying that I'm blind from old age? That I can't even see through someone else's strength? If you don't believe me, get your grandson to invite the Cool Breeze Faction's leader here! And I want to ask him what he means by this. I'm here as a guest, yet someone dares to question me. "
As an elder of the Heavenly Thunder Faction, Elder Lei had always been a man of his word. This old man was just a useless piece of trash, yet he dared to question his words! He also looked down on Gu Xianglin. After all, he was only the adopted son of the Cool Breeze Faction's leader. He didn't have a proper status, and he wasn't much either. If not for the leader's orders, he wouldn't have come to this banquet.
However, Gu Ruoyun hadn't expected Elder Lei to see through her strength. This surprised her.
"Elder Lei's cultivation technique is the Heaven's Eye, so there's nothing he can't see through."
As if sensing Gu Ruoyun's doubts, the Ghost Doctor explained.
Hearing this, Gu Ruoyun nodded. She had been wondering how Elder Lei could see through her strength, but she hadn't expected it to be because of the Heaven's Eye.
"General Gu, find a more perfect excuse next time. No one would believe something like this. Besides, to be able to become the Ghost Doctor's disciple, her medical skills must be even better than the Ghost Doctor's, yet your Gu family abandoned her like a piece of trash. If I had a granddaughter like her, I would definitely protect her like a treasure. How could I bear to abandon her?"
Elder Lei didn't understand Old Man Gu's motives. How could he bear to abandon such an outstanding granddaughter? Instead, he treated those useless people like treasures?
Hearing this, the old man's throat seemed to be choked by a hand, and he couldn't make a sound. His old face was exceptionally pale, without a trace of blood.
At this moment, the guests in the banquet hall seemed to have come back to their senses and immediately burst into discussion.
"Gu Ruoyun is actually the Ghost Doctor's Shifu? The Ghost Doctor's status was so high, who on the mainland didn't need to give her some face? With a disciple like the Ghost Doctor, did she still need to sell her body to seduce Hundred Herb Hall's Elder Yu? What's even funnier is that Gu Panpan even slandered the Ghost Doctor for learning how to seduce old men from Gu Ruoyun. "
"We've only heard about this from Old Man Gu. Coupled with Elder Yu's protection of Gu Ruoyun, we only believed his words. It's very obvious that Old Man Gu is just saying that the grapes are sour because he can't eat them. He's deliberately framing Gu Ruoyun, and the reason why Elder Yu is protecting her is definitely because of the Ghost Doctor."
The whispers of the crowd entered Elder Lei's ears, and he widened his eyes in disbelief.
Was this even something a human would do? He actually dared to frame her for selling her body to seduce the old man from Hundred Herb Hall? Did she need to do that? With the identity of the Ghost Doctor, no matter where she went, she would become an imperial physician.
Wait a minute!
Hundred Herb Hall?
Suddenly, Elder Lei remembered the shocking auction that Hundred Herb Hall had held three years ago. His puzzled gaze slowly turned towards Gu Ruoyun.
If she could make the Ghost Doctor acknowledge her as her Shifu, then her medical skills must be superb! For example, the art of changing one's appearance …
So, could the auction three years ago have something to do with this girl?
