The oil lamp turned green. This visitor was probably not alive.
I hadn't expected my first customer after opening the shop to be so bizarre.
Not only bizarre, but she had asked to buy lives the moment she opened her mouth...
The thought made me extremely vigilant.
At the same time, from behind the counter, I glanced at the lanterns by the door.
But there wasn't a single word on them.
Could this woman in black be the first Liar?
But I didn't rush to a conclusion, since I hadn't opened my Heavenly Eye.
As I watched her take two steps forward and the oil lamp grow greener, I continued, "No rush. Please wait a moment."
I spoke very politely. Master had said that certain distinguished guests had to be treated well.
I couldn't draw a conclusion just because of one thing she said.
Hearing this, the woman in black stopped where she stood. "Wait for what? You have lives, and I'm buying lives.
"However many you have, I'll buy them all!"
With that, she waved a hand and took a coin from her jeans pocket.
She placed it on my table.
With a ding, a silver coin appeared on the tabletop.
The instant I saw that coin, I immediately remembered the days when Xiao Yu had extended my life.
She had used this kind of coin to forcibly extend my life by a year.
Only later did I learn that she had wanted to wait until my fate stabilized before bringing me into the Dao.
Who could have known that the Great Fiend would awaken and begin watching us, forcing Xiao Yu to leave me early?
To protect myself, I had no choice but to take a master and embark on this path ahead of time.
