Chapter 781: Old Lady Luo III
“This...” Old Lady Luo grabbed Feng Ruqing’s hands excitedly. “Young lady, I don’t know how I can express my gratitude toward you if my illness is cured. Is this prescription of the spirit herbal dish expensive? Don’t worry. Just name the price. I’ll definitely fulfill your demand.”
“I don’t want to ask for anything just yet. If you feel bad about it and you do want to repay my kindness, just remember that you owe me. Keep it that way until you’re feeling better.”
“Good.”
Old Lady Luo was satisfied.
‘If I’m cured, I’ll never allow Qin Xiaoyue to be a part of the Luo family! Xiao Li’er will never be bullied again!’
“Young lady, you’re so beautiful and kind. By the way, you look like one of my old friends. Maybe that’s why we’re destined to meet.” Old Lady Luo laughed. She had quite a good impression of Feng Ruqing when she met Feng Ruqing for the first time. Feng Ruqing seemed quite adorable if compared to the weak and sick lady of the Qin family.
‘Maybe... it’s because they resemble each other.
‘Especially those eyes, eyebrows and her facial expressions. The way she carriesbrings herself—She’s so much like my old friend...’
“An old friend?” Feng Ruqing turned and looked at the old lady. She frowned slightly.
She looked more like her mother compared to her father, though she resembled him too.
Other than that, it was impossible that she resembled anyone else.
There was no resemblance between her and Chen’er even if he was indeed her younger brother who was taken from them. If not, she would have recognized him long ago.
“Yes.” The old lady held Feng Ruqing’s hand and patted it lovingly. “My old friend had sworn to be my late husband’s brother. Our Luo family had wronged him deeply too...”
‘I’ve buried those feelings deep down in my heart and not even Luo Fei or Luo Li know about them.’
“I went to look for Eternal Spring because I hoped that I could live longer so that there’s a possibility of meeting him again.”
Feng Ruqing was silent. She felt that it was impolite to listen to the old lady’s deep troubles but she was unwilling to stop her.
“That fellow is always reckless and arrogant. But, he always values his people and never thinks about himself. My husband and I grew up in Tian Shen Manor. That’s why we did not understand his actions...
“Until... his people were slaughtered by a group of people one day. They wiped out the entire population in that city! He was outrageous and he planned to wipe out the entire reclusive world.”
A smile crept onto the old lady’s face slowly.
She had never thought that he was wrong.
She just didn’t understand why he had always put everyone else before him without caring about himself.
Yet, some people are resented by everyone else because of their actions. That fellow adored his people so much so that he would never leave them behind.
“The entire reclusive world was shocked at that time. He was alone but he had slaughtered many cultivators from the reclusive world. He had killed numerous powerful people.
“In the end, the reclusive world was frightened. They felt an immense fear toward him. So, they united and planned to kill him together...”
The old lady seemed to show great respect and adoration for that person as she was talking.
“That battle lasted for three days. I’ll never forget that day. He walked out of the battlefield, leaving behind corpses and skeletons. He was soaked in blood. The world thought that it was a draw between him and the reclusive world while claiming that the reclusive world was slightly weaker. But, it was not so. He could surely wipe out the entire reclusive world given his immense talent.”
