Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor - Chapter 4849: Here

Chapter 4849: Here

The city, already under the control of powerful clans, was abuzz with news of the incident. It quickly reached the ears of several families, particularly the Wei family, who immediately dispatched men to capture the culprits. After all, this was their territory. If they allowed outsiders to bully their people, how could they maintain their standing in the city?

As the Wei family’s men moved to surround Song Mi’er, Feng Jiu, dressed in red, was walking through the city gates. She didn’t expect her trip to have been so smooth. When she went to the Immortal Island to find the Great Emperor Northern Flame, she was just trying her luck. Even if he wasn’t there, she would still destroy his lair to dampen his spirit. To her surprise, he hadn’t gone anywhere else to hide and recover from his injuries; he had stayed on the Immortal Island.

Having dealt with such a formidable enemy, she felt an inexplicable sense of relief and happiness. Only three enemies remained, but she was in no hurry. She would take them down one by one; it was only a matter of time.

Walking down the street, Feng Jiu was about to enter an inn when she saw the innkeeper rush out with an anxious expression. “Oh my, young lady, you’re finally back,” he said.

Feng Jiu raised an eyebrow. “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”

“The young lady traveling with you is in big trouble,” the innkeeper replied. “I heard from guests that she offended someone from the Wei family and is now being surrounded by them on West Street! I heard the Wei family threatened to break the young lady’s legs and even said they would stew her pet and eat it!”

Hearing this, Feng Jiu’s lips curved into a slight smile. “I see. Thank you for letting me know.” She nodded slightly and asked, “Which way is West Street?”

“Go straight down this street, turn left, go straight for 200 metres, then turn right, and you’ll be there,” the innkeeper explained. He looked at her again and said hesitantly, “Miss, you’re not going there alone, are you? If you go alone, remember not to provoke the Wei family again.”

“I know, shopkeeper. Please ask the waiter to prepare some water for me to bathe. We’ll be back soon,” Feng Jiu said with a light smile, then walked toward the street the shopkeeper had indicated.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper paused for a moment before shouting, “Waiter, hurry up and boil some water and bring it to the guest room at the back of the second floor.” Judging by the woman in red’s demeanor, she must come from an extraordinary background, so maybe nothing would happen after all.

On West Street, Song Mi’er hugged Cloud Devouring and glared at the people surrounding her. “How dare you! What are you doing in broad daylight?” she challenged.

“Hmph! You stupid girl! I’ll show you!” The middle-aged man with the head injury snorted coldly, glaring at Song Mi’er before waving his hand and shouting, “Grab her!”

“Hmph, I’d like to see you try!” Song Mi’er glared angrily and, with a quick movement, the frying pan appeared in her hand again. When the middle-aged man saw the pan, he recalled the previous scene, and a fiery, covetous look appeared in his eyes.

“Grab her! Grab her for me!” he yelled. He believed that the frying pan, which could change in size, must be a magical artifact. It could be used to cook food and as a weapon for self-defense. Such a treasure was perfect for a chef like him.

Cloud Devouring glanced at the people around him, darted out of Song Mi’er’s arms, and landed steadily beside her.
