Chapter 4972. Soul Tomb of the Demon King

The figure standing atop the city wall was very thin — not just bony, but short as well, barely over a meter tall.

Though a hood obscured her face, strands of white hair spilled out from beneath it, and the hand that was visible was not only withered, but covered in wrinkles and age spots.

All of this was proof enough that she was an elderly woman.

So elderly, in fact, that standing atop the city wall, onlookers feared a strong gust of wind might blow her right off.

But Chu Feng knew she was not an old woman — her appearance was merely a disguise. She was actually a junior.

Because Chu Feng recognized her. She was a disciple of Granny Wish God.

But how could a disciple of Granny Wish God appear here?

"Senior, you... why are you here too?" Chu Feng couldn't help but ask.

Even though he knew full well she was actually a junior in terms of age, due to their past encounters, Chu Feng held a special respect for her, and so he still habitually addressed her as "Senior."

"Why couldn't I be here?"

Granny Wish God's attitude was somewhat cold, as if she and Chu Feng were strangers.

But Chu Feng was not surprised by her attitude. Setting aside the fact that she was a cold person by nature, she also had some misunderstandings about him.

"Chu Feng, do you know Senior Sister Song?"

Song Feifei looked at Chu Feng with some surprise.

She clearly hadn't expected Chu Feng to know this disciple of Granny Wish God.

"More than just know."

Chu Feng smiled faintly. The moment he laid eyes on Granny Wish God's disciple, memories of their past encounters surfaced unbidden.

Though those events hadn't happened all that long ago, so much had happened to Chu Feng since then that looking back filled him with a sense of wistfulness.

But quickly, Chu Feng remembered something and turned to Song Feifei.

"So does this mean that Granny Wish God and Fairy Dao Hai know each other?"

"More than just know each other."

"Granny Wish God is our martial aunt."

"Though we only recently found out about this," Song Feifei said with a grin.

From her expression, it was clear that learning Granny Wish God was her martial aunt was a pleasant surprise.

After all, in the Nine Souls Heavenly River, both Granny Wish God and Fairy Dao Hai were figures of tremendous renown.

Having such a person as their martial aunt meant they had gained another powerful backer.

"That's truly unexpected."

Chu Feng was quite moved. He really hadn't anticipated that Granny Wish God and Fairy Dao Hai shared such a close relationship.

"Then does that mean Granny Wish God came as well?" Chu Feng asked Song Feifei.

"That's right, Martial Aunt came too," Song Feifei nodded.

Hearing this, Chu Feng was secretly delighted.

Long Xiaoxiao's face had been disfigured, and Chu Feng had been powerless to help. But back when his own face had been ruined, it was Granny Wish God who had healed him.

Now that he'd encountered Granny Wish God again, Chu Feng didn't want to miss this chance. Even if Granny Wish God wasn't willing to help personally, learning the method of treatment from her would be more than enough.

"Senior, you've arrived at just the right time."

"This person's origins are unknown, yet he tries to force his way in. Please, Senior, take charge."

Just then, the man surnamed Qiu spoke up.

From his attitude, it was clear he held a fair amount of respect for Granny Wish God's disciple.

But what Chu Feng hadn't expected was that the moment the man opened his mouth, he twisted the facts and turned the accusation around.

"Do you think I'm blind?"

"Where did you see him forcing his way in?"

"It's clearly you who's been making things difficult for him."
