"Miss, please wait."
Wang Shihai called out instinctively.
"?" The woman stopped. Beneath the gauze veil of her bamboo hat, her pretty eyes looked at Wang Shihai as if with puzzlement. Judging from the dress and bearing of these Clan Soldiers and retainers, as well as their weapons and equipment, she could tell this was one of the Wang Clan's extermination squads.
Only, the young man at their head seemed to have a rather strong aura. Yet she had never seen him before, and he certainly was not one of her younger brothers or nephews...
"Miss, this is beyond the domain. Although most places have already been cleared, there are still some dangerous areas." Wang Shihai's heart pounded wildly for this mysterious woman. He cupped his hands and struck up a conversation. "If you have no urgent business, Miss, please don't wander about. Not far ahead is our encampment. You could..."
"Who are you? A newly recruited retainer of the Wang Clan?" the woman interrupted, her tone slightly cool. Doubt stirred faintly in her heart. With Fourth Brother's temperament, he had never trusted Rogue Cultivators. He should not casually recruit a Spirit Platform Realm Rogue Cultivator as a retainer.
Besides, this man was already at the Spirit Platform Realm at such a young age. He was definitely no ordinary person. Could he be an up-and-coming talent from some marriage-allied clan?
"Greetings, Miss. I am Wang Shihai. May I ask your honorable name?" Wang Shihai stared straight at the mysterious woman. That clear, lovely bearing, and the strong, overbearing air she faintly gave off without meaning to, deeply drew him in.
In all Wang Shihai's life, it seemed this was the first time he had truly felt such an electric shock.
"Insolent! What bold thief dares impersonate a Wang Clan descendant!"
