"Okay, I understand the reasoning."
"But why would this guy just drop dead on my doorstep for no reason?"
His mind raced, but he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he thought.
However, when he happened to glance down, he saw his little sister, Ji Wei, biting her lip. Her head was bowed in silence as she stared at the tips of her toes.
A thought suddenly struck him:
"Everyone, you may all leave now."
"As for this matter with the Qi Cultivation Grandmaster..."
"I'll ask my Master and Magistrate Zhao to step in and handle it."
...
The moon climbed to its zenith. The crowd in the Ji Family courtyard quickly dispersed, leaving only the siblings, Ji Xiu and Ji Wei, along with an unconscious Lin Ruxue lying on a bed in the guest room.
After careful consideration, Ji Xiu had men from the Wind and Cloud Association deliver Wang Hongzu's body to Gu Baichuan at the County Yamen.
