The people of Tianwu always kept their word.
Even Long Aotian had said so.
And judging by that Old Woman, she seemed too lazy to involve herself in such matters. The usual tricks of flattery clearly would not work here.
Liu Rufeng looked sickly, but her gaze was vicious, as if eighteen men had broken her heart. To her, everyone looked like a piece of rotten meat she wanted to hack to pieces.
