"Who is this fellow immortal?" Zhang Daoran's expression remained unchanged as he glanced at the woman and asked blandly. Beside him, Xunkong Shangren was somewhat angered and shot the woman a fierce glare.
Zhai Xingzi looked extremely embarrassed and hurriedly said with a placating smile, "She is my wife's friend!"
Then Zhai Xingzi said to Gu Suqiudi, "Qiu'er, hurry and introduce her."
"There is no need to trouble Sister Qiu." The woman was utterly unceremonious. Her bright eyes turned as she swept her gaze across the crowd. "I am Gongshu Yixin."
Then she looked directly at Xiao Hua and said arrogantly, "You are Xiao Hua, then! You look... quite ordinary. Besides, after cultivating for a thousand years, you have only reached fourth-grade mid-tier Yuan force. That hardly makes you some exceptional talent. Still, just now, I saw you hiding behind everyone else and watching others apologize. I think you are merely especially skilled at concealing yourself, then revealing your edge when others are not paying attention, making people think you are outstanding.

Gu Suqiudi's face flushed crimson. She had no idea how to answer. That double-edged question was truly formidable!
