Chapter 2240: An ordinary person “This is a mortal!” “This is an ordinary person without cultivation.” “Why is this kind of person coming to the banquet? Aren’t all the guests tonight Strong Exponent with cultivation? They are all here to discuss how to deal with the devilry cultivators in the city. How can this ordinary person get involved?” “Among other things, this woman looks good.” “Hehe, what does it matter if an ordinary person without cultivation has a good appearance? After all, she can not withstand the ravages of time. A hundred years later, won’t she just leave a pile of bones?” “It’s true, no matter how beautiful, it’s nothing more than just a mirage, like the reflection of flowers in the mirror or the moon in the water.” “Mm hmm, she doesn’t belong to the same world as ours. Such mortal women are really not suitable for such an occasion.” “Indeed, it would be beneath us to sit with her.” Some monks whispered and commented in a low voice about the red-clad Feng Jiu. Only a few people did not get involved, but after glancing at Feng Jiu, they poured some wine and drank it up. But, when Yi Xiuran who had been sitting idly drinking wine in boredom saw that Feng Jiu came, his eyes flashed and his body, which had been sitting crookedly, sat upright because of her arrival. However, he didn’t rush over but just stared fixedly at her. The City Lord knew that this woman came with Duan Ye. He didn’t expect that she looked remarkably beautiful. He remembered that his daughter told him that this woman was called Ghost Doctor. At that time, he was thinking that the name Ghost Doctor was somewhat familiar. Now that he saw the woman’s face and her red dress, it suddenly flashed into his mind and he finally remembered. Some time ago, the Heavenly Pill Tower of Hundred Rivers City rose abruptly in such a short span of time. Its master was called Ghost Doctor! And her name seemed to be Feng Jiu! When he recalled this, he couldn’t help getting excited. Ignoring other guests, he quickly stood up and welcomed her. “Immortal Lord, is she Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu?” He asked Duan Ye, but his excited and moved gaze was directed at Feng Jiu. Hearing this, Duan Ye shot him a profound gaze. He did not expect that the City Lord actually recognized Feng Jiu. With a glance at Feng Jiu, Duan Ye nodded. “Yes.” “Oh, wow! I didn’t expect that you’re really the esteemed Ghost Doctor. It’s my negligence.” He apologized again and again. While cupping his fists to salute her, he said, “Ghost Doctor, please take a seat, please take a seat.” Lu Xiyan and Ruan Ru next to him were puzzled. Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu? Was Ghost Doctor very famous? They had never known about it before. Other cultivators were similarly baffled. They were dissatisfied. So, someone remarked, “City Lord Lu, won’t you introduce us to this girl?” Even City Lord Lu wasn’t so polite and respectful to them. This woman was just a woman without cultivation. How could City Lord Lu treat him differently? “Guests, please sit down.” City Lord Lu smiled and invited Duan Ye and Feng Jiu to take their seats. After everyone sat down, he announced with a smile. “You are already acquainted with Immortal Lord Duan. This one is Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu.” Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu? What is that? This woman was a physician? Having this thought in mind, everyone’s expression changed. They stared at the woman. Such an enchanting and beautiful woman was a famous physician? Just a physician, why is she coming here? Was there anything she could do to help them catch the devilry cultivators? Some people sneered. “City Lord Lu, this girl has no spirit energy breath. She must be an ordinary person, right?”
