“Little immortal!” Suddenly, a sharp and excited female voice sounded from the back of the crowd.

A middle-aged woman pushed the people around her out of the crowd and walked straight to the old man’s side. Her eyes lit up as she looked at Gu Yanfei, who was standing on the steps, and recognized that the girl in front of her was the little immortal from Chengtian Gate.

“Sir, this is the little immortal.” The middle-aged woman pointed at Gu Yanfei excitedly. She was extremely excited and said to the gray-robed elder, “Second Lady Gu saved the Eldest Princess and even saved my Shuan Zi and many other children!”

“Hurry up and go home. This little immortal has boundless magic power. She’s definitely right. Something might really happen to your great-grandson!” The middle-aged woman kindly advised the old man.

She had gone to Chengtian Gate with Scholar Zhang to complain that day. She had seen Second Lady Gu use her divine power with her own eyes and knew how powerful she was.

The woman’s words caused the onlookers to clamor again. Everyone found it unbelievable. Right on the heels of that, they whispered to each other and looked at Gu Yanfei with burning eyes.

Everyone’s discussions, guesses, and doubts rose and fell.

“Is… is this really the little immortal?”

“I also went to Chengtian Gate that day. Looking at her now, this girl seems, seems, seems a little familiar.”

“She does look familiar.”

“So Second Lady Gu of the Gu Mansion is actually the little immortal!”

Some of the people in the crowd were already talking incoherently. Some of them even thought about how they had just thrown vegetables into the Gu Mansion and couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.

In less than five minutes after Gu Yanfei appeared, the atmosphere at the entrance changed from the original tense atmosphere to another direction. Several people wished they could kneel down.

The gray-robed elder’s mind was in a mess as he looked at Gu Yanfei in shock.

His white eyebrows were tightly knitted into a knot, and the wrinkles on his face deepened. He was skeptical. He had already scolded Gu Ce like this just now. This Second Lady Gu was Gu Ce’s biological daughter. Would she be so kind as to help him?!

The old man stared at Gu Yanfei so hard that his turbid old eyes felt a little sour. He still suspected that she was cursing his great-grandson.

Gu Yanfei seemed to have seen through his doubts and said, “According to the hexagram, there’s a river south of your house.”

“Your great-grandson will go into the river to catch fish, but his feet will be entangled in the river grass…”

With that, Gu Yanfei sighed slightly.

“…” The gray-robed elder’s eyes suddenly widened. The turbid white of his eyes was filled with red threads like a spider web, and his face instantly turned pale.

That’s right, there was indeed a river not far south of his house.

But how did Second Lady Gu know all this?!

She didn’t know him, nor did she know where his home was, let alone that his great-grandson had said this morning that he wanted to eat fish…

At the thought of this, the gray-robed elder almost lost his mind. In the blink of an eye, a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

The others didn’t need to ask to guess. One of them said in shock, “Is the little immortal right? Is there really a river near this old man’s house?”

The middle-aged woman wanted to persuade the old man again, but she saw that the old man was about to leave in a panic with his walking stick. He left in a hurry, his legs trembling.

“Sir, please wait. I’ll get the carriage in the residence to send you there.” Gu Yanfei called out to the old man. “You have to hurry before the sun rises.”

The smart Juan Bi quickly went to get the gatekeeper to prepare the carriage.

Everyone, including the old man, subconsciously looked up at the dazzling sun in the blue sky above. They felt that the scorching sun couldn’t be looked at directly, and it was dazzling.

The old man was still a little hesitant. There were already a few people beside him who quickly pulled him back and advised, “Old man, how can your two legs compare to a carriage? It’s better to take the Gu family’s carriage.”

After a while, a green-roofed carriage drove out of the corner door of the Gu Mansion, and a servant helped the soulless old man into the carriage.

As the coachman waved his whip again and again, the carriage hurried away along Yuan’an Street…

The middle-aged woman and the others looked at each other.

After the interlude just now, the tense atmosphere of knife lights and sword shadows in the beginning no longer existed. At this moment, everyone looked at Gu Yanfei with extremely complicated eyes. They didn’t know if they respected her, were ashamed, regretful, or conflicted.

The person who broke the silence was still Gu Yanfei.. The girl’s voice was cold and steady
