Just as I thought...
Shi Lan recalled the face of a dark-skinned old man. The old hunter named Liu Ping from Twin Moon City had left an impression on her.
During their earlier conversation, Liu Ping had mentioned that he had an only son who had left Twin Moon City to study martial arts seven years ago.
When she first met Liu Ziming, Shi Lan had felt he looked familiar, but she hadn't been sure. Chengtian Domain was so vast; running into Liu Ziming like this seemed far too much of a coincidence.
And...
Shi Lan reached out and grabbed Liu Ziming's arm.
"Thousand-Man Commander, th-this..."
Liu Ziming's face turned faintly red. Shi Lan had immediately asked where he lived, and now she was making this kind of move. How could he not read something into it?
The women in the Demon Suppression Army really were so forward...
Liu Ziming's thoughts churned, and he felt conflicted. If the Thousand-Man Commander tried to force him to submit, would he give in or refuse?
Shi Lan brushed her hand over Liu Ziming's arm and drew a glimmer of light from his sleeve. True energy surged forth, and the glimmer swelled in an instant, transforming into a great white bow nearly as tall as a person.
The Divine Cloud Bow...
As she gently stroked the bow, a trace of understanding showed in Shi Lan's eyes. No wonder something on Liu Ziming had been faintly drawing her attention.
"Where did you get this bow?"
"I won it at an auction not long ago. I've practiced with bows and crossbows since I was young, so..."
By now, Liu Ziming understood that he had misunderstood Shi Lan earlier. He felt somewhat relieved, yet couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
Shi Lan tossed the Divine Cloud Bow
