Must acknowledge no matter what
Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
That scene on the street spread quickly and became a topic that everyone in the Imperial City enjoyed talking about. Many people knew that Ghost Doctor came to Heaven's Prayer Country and was welcomed into the imperial palace by the ruler. Therefore, some people who wanted to ask for medicine stayed outside the imperial palace and waited for Ghost Doctor to come out.
At the Shangguan's mansion, the clan head told the Old Patriarch everything that happened on the street. He could barely contain his anger. He spoke with hatred, "That Feng Jiu doesn't know what's good for her! She said we're acknowledging relatives randomly! She doesn't see that we are a century-old influential alchemy family. Can we acknowledge familial relationships arbitrarily if she is not really related to us?"
The Old Patriarch was drinking tea on the master seat, listening to him. He was silent and didn't say anything, making it hard for others to understand what he was thinking about.
