Bab 2748: Taking a Different Route

When he saw them fighting, the elderly man just spared them a glance and told Feng Jiu, "I'm not going to bother you, Young Friend, with their problems." With the help of He Shu, he stood up and gave a salute to Feng Jiu. "Thank you for saving me. I, Ye Huai, will never forget it as long as I live."

Feng Jiu did not reject it and instead accepted his salute. She turned to face the Xie family's father and son without saying anything more. "When are you going home, Old Patriarch?"

Old Patriarch Xie responded, "I'm all set to go. So, how about you? When are you going to leave?"

"Tomorrow." She stated.

"Shall we go together?" Old Patriarch Xie asked.

Feng Jiu shook her head. "No, the place I'm going takes a different route." While she was talking, her face changed all of a sudden. Her gaze shifted and fell into the distant woods.

Others saw this and looked in the direction she was looking, but all they saw was the quiet rustling of leaves.
