Chapter 275
I could hardly believe the Ninth Concubine had been alive all this time.
But on second thought, centenarians were not that rare. Many elderly people who spent their entire lives in the countryside lived to a hundred.
Even so, I had never imagined the Ninth Concubine would survive that long.
Anning was just as shocked as I was.
“Sir, when did Immortal Maiden Xu pass away?” I asked the Old Man.
He said, “Three nights ago. She suddenly departed this life. Usually, she was in good health, with no illnesses, and she had a strong appetite. But for someone over a hundred, a sudden passing isn’t unusual. She died peacefully at the end of a full life.”
I barely heard anything he said after that.
His first sentence had already stunned me.
Three nights ago. Wasn’t that when Seventh Master and I entered the construction site?
