Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Feng Jiu, dressed in red, appeared from outside not long after, followed by several elders. Everyone’s gaze was drawn to the beautiful woman in red as they watched them enter.

Was this the woman in red? She was truly stunning.

They were deep in thought when they noticed the woman in red sitting on the main seat in the hall. When they saw where she sat, the eyes of everyone in the reception hall moved.

Several elders surrounded Feng Jiu as they surveyed the gathering within the hall. “When I request your presence today, it is for an important announcement.”

An elder spoke, his eyes sweeping the crowd before landing on the father and son of the Hong clan. “The current City Lord must resign to make room for a virtuous man. After much deliberation, we decided to elect one to succeed as the new City Lord. This man is Patriarch Hong.”

As soon as the announcement was made, everyone opened their eyes wide in shock and looked at the elder who spoke, as well as the Hong clan’s father and son, whose expressions remained unchanged and did not appear surprised.

“Elect Patriarch Hong as the new City Lord?”

“That’s correct,” the elder said, nodding. “After that...” Before he could finish, one of them cut him off.

“Who on earth chose him? I’m intrigued; each prominent family’s Patriarch in the city is so outstanding, how can Patriarch Hong succeed as City Lord? I’m hoping there’s an argument that will persuade us.”

The elder looked at the Patriarch, then at Feng Jiu before continuing to speak. “This is not to discuss with you, but to tell you our decision; I believe it has nothing to do with you who should be elected by the people in our City Lord Manor.”

Hearing this, the Patriarch frowned and said in a heavy voice, “It has nothing to do with us? Why him, when there are so many people who are better than him? And who is this woman in red? Did you choose Patriarch Hong to succeed as City Lord because of her?”

His eyes landed sharply on Feng Jiu’s body, probing and examining her like a knife. What was it about this woman that made them listen to her?

“Hehe, this is not correct. Do you believe you have a say in who our City Lord Manor selects?” The Great Elder’s calm face was tinged with a sneer. “As I mentioned earlier, I asked you to come here today just to tell you, not to hear your opinions.”

Hearing this, the Patriarch’s heart felt stifled. Even though he was unconvinced, if the forces of the City Lord Manor and the Hong family united, they had cause for concern.

The others, on the other hand, were staring at the woman in red, who was drinking tea quietly and ignoring what the Patriarch said. They were all looking at her in secret.

This woman had unfathomable strength and a majestic demeanour. How did this type of person suddenly become involved in the affairs of this city? They couldn’t figure it out.

Others, aside from the City Lord Manor and the Hong family, might not be aware of this.

“Hehe, Miss, after sitting here for so long, I still don’t know what to call you.” One of the Patriarchs spoke, looking at Feng Jiu, who was drinking tea.

When the elder and Patriarch Hong heard this, they both looked at Feng Jiu. They heard Feng Jiu’s response as she raised her eyes and raised the corner of her lips to look at the Patriarch and said: “Ghost Doctor.”

Ghost Doctor?

The people in the hall were taken aback. They had never heard of Ghost Doctor, but the name gave them the impression that she should have been a powerful figure.
