What Would She Do?!

Li Yao ignored Old Man Lu's question and teased, "Looking for your Second Spring? Tsk, tsk, tsk. Too bad she was only carrying out a mission!"

Old Man Lu said, "Huh?"

He quickly realized...

His identity as an outsider had probably been noticed by the "gifted ones" here, and that woman had deliberately approached them to assess them.

That was a common occurrence.

He himself was one of the Wallfacers, and he often reviewed gifted foreigners entering the country. Sometimes, he even had to go undercover to identify them.

More or less, it was the same sort of thing.

Old Man Lu could understand.

But for some reason, even though he understood, he still felt somewhat disappointed. The feeling was faint and light, like a wisp of smoke curling upward.

Under the influence of that emotion, Old Man Lu even forgot to ask why Li Yao had appeared here and whether he had been following him.

Seeing Old Man Lu's crestfallen look, Li Yao joked, "Second Uncle's disappointed, huh!" He nudged Lin Xiaowei with his elbow. "Quick! I want every bit of information on that female mage within thirty seconds!"

Second Uncle's happiness could not be overlooked!

Mm...

Right.

The question was whether Second Uncle could still perform at his age! Listening to this little bastard mutter to himself, Second Uncle immediately glared at him. "Watch your mouth, brat! Otherwise, I won't let you off! By the way, who is this...?"

Lin Xiaowei was also wearing a Shapeshifter Mask, so Old Man Lu had no idea who she was.

As for why Kadis could pick Lin Xiaowei out from the crowd at a glance... all that could be said was that she was sharp and smart.

Faced with Old Man Lu's question, Li Yao waved a hand. "Don't ask!"
