The Indomitable Master of Elixirs

Even though Ji Ru was over 50 years old, it did not conceal the elegance that he had while he was younger. Despite his age, he still had an extraordinary aura that ordinary people could not have.

The instant Ji Fengyan saw Ji Ru, her mind was immediately blown away.

The old man in front of her eyes actually was almost similar to her Grandmaster who had passed away.

“Grand.. .Grandmaster…” Ji Fengyan’s face was filled with shock for the first time.

Ji Ru frowned slightly as he looked at the dazed Ji Fengyan. He slightly cleared his throat and said, “Fengyan, what are you saying?”

When he called out “Fengyan,” Ji Fengyan instantly recovered from her daze. Looking at the immortal-looking elder in front of her, she felt bitter.

How could she forget that her Grandmaster had already passed away?

“Greetings to Grandfather,” probably because the other party was very similar to the Grandmaster that she had respected a lot, she faced no difficulty in calling out “grandfather”.

Ji Ru nodded and did not bother about Ji Fengyan’s odd behaviour previously.

“Take a seat first,” Ji Ru said.

Ji Fengyan sat down at the side well-behaved. Even though she knew that the other party was not her Grandmaster, but just that similar-looking face had already drawn out the suppressed longing she had to meet him.

“I heard that you have performed outstandingly in the capital institute this time. It was just that your Second Uncle had prematurely concluded that you were dead. Now that I look at you, I think you are still fine.” Ji Ru sized up his granddaughter that he had hardly interacted with before.

Despite being the family head, but because he was obsessed with training, he was hardly at the Ji residence. The original owner of the body had only met Ji Ru two times during Lunar New Year while she was young, and each time, she could only see from a distance, so she had never been this close to him.

Hearing what Ji Ru had said, Ji Fengyan only laughed and did not say more.

“It’s your Second Uncle’s fault for causing this misunderstanding so I will punish him. But the news of your death had been reported to Your Majesty. Now that you are fine now, you’d better head to the palace as soon as possible to inform Your Majesty that you are still alive,” Ji Ru continued.

Ji Qiu craved achievement so much that upon receiving news about Ji Fengyan’s death, he immediately told the Emperor. Not only did he obtain many valuable treasures, he had also confirmed Ji Fengyan’s death.

With Ji Fengyan’s return, Ji Qiu had undoubtedly committed the crime of lying to the Emperor.

Ji Fengyan looked at that face that was very similar to her Grandmaster but she felt very distanced. The person before her was not her Grandmaster and was the head of Ji family Ji Ru.

“Since the Eldest Uncle was the one to report to Your Majesty, then shouldn’t it be easy for him to report again?” Ji Fengyan smiled slightly. After realising the reality, she naturally did not want to clear up the mess for Ji family.

Ji Ru looked at Ji Fengyan. As he had hardly had any interactions with Ji Fengyan, he was not sure about his granddaughter’s personality. Now that he had heard Ji Fengyan’s response, he could already tell her personality.

Ji Ru did not continue to convince Ji Fengyan and summoned the housekeeper of Ji family instead.

Upon seeing Ji Fengyan, the housekeeper’s legs immediately became weak.

“Go and call all the members of the Ji family here.” Ji Ru said.

The housekeeper nodded profusely but did not know Ji Ru’s intention and only followed his orders.

Ji Fengyan was also not in a rush. She believed that Ji Ru knew about the treatment the original owner of the body had experienced in Ji residence. Now, she was only interested in knowing how Ji Ru would deal with this matter.

Within moments, everyone in the Ji residence was summoned to Ji Ru’s study room.
