Wasn't this the Qi Household's shop? Why did the woman outside call herself a member of the Wu Household?
Lin Mo was slightly surprised, but he did not dwell on it. He turned toward the doorway, and his eyes immediately lit up.
What a presence!
Unlike Qin Sang Sang's youthful, gentle beauty, the woman outside wore bright, striking clothes and exuded the commanding yet alluring air of a noblewoman, compelling others to bow before her presence.
Apart from the female Sect Master of the Sword Sect whom he had seen once during the Spirit Plant Grand Competition, he had never encountered another woman with such bearing!
"Ah! Young miss!"
Behind the counter, the gray-robed shopkeeper hurried out to greet her, trembling with apprehension. "Your subordinate, Wu Feng, failed to anticipate your arrival, young miss. I deserve ten thousand deaths..."
Before Wu Feng could finish, Miss Wu waved a hand and approached Lin Mo with two pretty maids in tow. "Were you the one who brought out the 'Quasi-Perfect Foundation Establishment Pills'?" she asked coolly.
Lin Mo neither confirmed nor denied it, instead voicing his question outright. "I'm doing business with the Qi Household, not the Wu Household. If you want the pills I have, please have the Qi Household Manager come here."
Miss Wu smiled.
She gathered a strand of long hair beside her ear, her every movement brimming with charm, and said with a smile, "No wonder you asked. I take it you aren't a cultivator from the Longevity Domain?"
As she spoke, she waved again and said softly, "Wu Feng, since our young customer has questions, explain it to him."
"At once," Wu Feng replied. He hurried over to Lin Mo and said with a smile, "The Eight Great Households of the Longevity Domain..."
