Ms. Doctor Divine

1864 Result 2

Gao Xiu gazed directly at Gu Chaoyan, her expression resolute.

Longqing was still young, and he had no involvement in the incident where Phoenix Girl’s mother was drugged. As he had no part in it, it was irrelevant to his past actions.

Regarding his association with the City Lord, he was merely a loyal follower who followed orders. Gao Xiu knew Longqing well. He was an honest man who obeyed without question. His loyalty was driven by his dedication to his master. Gao Xiu felt it was a shame that Longqing had chosen to align himself with them.

From Snow Territory’s perspective, Longqing had done nothing wrong.

Phoenix Girl would make the final decision and decide their punishment for their actions against her.

Gu Chaoyan gently shook her head.

In this world, there were different social classes, and Longqing was just a guard. It was unnecessary for her to delve into his past actions.

Gao Xiu understood her viewpoint.

She spoke, “Longqing, you are someone who follows orders. You will not be held accountable. What you need to do now is not beg for forgiveness but make a choice.”

“…”

“Will you continue to serve as a guard of Snow Territory, or will you follow your City Lord and Elderly Man?”

“Longqing has always been Snow Territory’s most loyal guard,” Longqing responded without hesitation. It was an unshakable truth he had always known.

“…”

“But Longqing, can I assist them in finding a new path?” Longqing inquired.

Gao Xiu looked at them, then back at Longqing.

They were fortunate to have a friend like Longqing.

Gao Xiu nodded in agreement.

As everything fell into place…

Ouyang Mingjing gazed at Gu Chaoyan. She remained as cold as ever, her world clear and distinct.

As for himself…

He realized that he had allowed himself to be fooled.

It was all a joke in the end.

He had never truly loved her. His feelings had always been driven by obsession. From a young age, he had known that Phoenix Girl would be his future wife as the City Lord.

Only someone as formidable as Phoenix Girl could aid him, that’s what Elder Man had told him.

But…

Deep down, he had always yearned for that gentle woman.

He wasn’t that special after all.

With a bitter smile, Ouyang Mingjing took out a dagger and ended his own life.

He uttered his final wish, “If possible, bury me alongside her.”

With those words, he closed his eyes.

He still wore his disheveled, snow-white attire. He was no longer as majestic as he had been in the Saint Divine Land, but in this moment, he was at his most magnificent.

Gu Chaoyan nodded in acknowledgment.

Gao Xiu’s men were there to handle everything.

Once all was settled, Gao Xiu spoke, “The King will arrive shortly. Phoenix Girl is already residing in the palace. Let’s arrange for him to be moved there as well.”

Gu Chaoyan nodded in agreement.

After Gao Xiu departed, Zhou Huaijin and the others arrived.

Upon seeing Zhou Huaijin, Gu Chaoyan felt the need to introduce Huang Fu to him. She smiled and gestured to her right, preparing to speak, only to find that Huang Fu was no longer present.

Had he run out of magical power?

They could address this matter later.

Zhou Huaijin approached her with a smile.
