Baili Xia seemed to have caught onto something. She asked urgently, "Auntie, what happened between you and your benefactor? Can you tell me about it?"
"Alright, here's the thing, eighteen years ago, there was a time when I…"
The woman was just about to recount what had happened back then to Baili Xia.
But suddenly, a wave of cold air swept over from nearby, making her abruptly stop.
She glanced towards Bei Tianyou, dressed all in white, who was walking toward her and Baili Xia.
Bei Tianyou said nothing, but the chill emanating from him made the woman shudder involuntarily.
"L-little girl, I have something to take care of. I'll tell you next time."
"Hey, Auntie, you… Auntie…"
Baili Xia didn't understand why the woman suddenly wanted to leave and was about to ask her.
But the woman bent down to pick up the tools she had left on the ground and, without lingering for even a second, bolted down the mountain.
